About: I grew up with cats, fostered a border collie puppy in college and have experience training puppies and kittens. I currently have a senior cat and will hopefully be getting my own dog soon! I have experience with senior care for cats, giving medication, and grooming both cats and dogs. I have a bachelor’s degree, government background checks and am CPR, ACLS and BLS certified. I love long walks and cuddling up with animals! Your furry friend will be well loved and taken care of! I work part-time so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I am available on most weekends and am open to regularly scheduled visits. I should be available for most holidays due to the nature of my husband’s job. I am unable to board animals at this time due to having a cat at home. I am available for daily drop-ins for those of you working long hours or for when you’re on vacation. I love taking dogs for walks and playing fetch, tug of war, and giving snuggles! Cats definitely have a special place in my heart and I deeply understand their needs.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid and because I have my own pets it’s allowed me to have a better understanding on how they communicate with each other and me. I currently attend massage school twice a week late in the afternoons as well as teach horseback riding lessons so my schedule is very flexible! I have three animals that have gotten along with every animal I have brought over. I also have plenty of property, about 70 acres to take dogs on walks and for them to play.
“Very happy with Camille's drop in on our kitties. She did everything we asked and more. Our cats felt comfortable enough to come greet her, which says a lot! Really great communication from her too. Will absolutely keep her in mind for future needs!”
“Tiffany is AMAZING! We are new to rover and our boys have never had a sitter before so we were wondering how it would work. Tiffany was quick to set a meet and greet with us and it worked out! The dogs loved her, 2 Great Danes are a lot of dog but she was great with them! Kept us up to date about everything while she was here, sent a bunch of photos for us while we were gone! Just wonderful to have Tiffany watching our babies and will absolutely use her again! Don’t hesitate, just book it!!”
“Samantha did a great job visiting my Moxie. She visited her and walked her. She did more than requested and Moxie was tired out from all the attention. Samantha sent a lot of pictures of the visit, which aloud me to see how much fun Moxie was having. I will be using her again!”

“Taylor provided excellent care to our two Dobermans. She was willing to come out early and meet our dogs and was very friendly. She arrived on time for a drop in visit and provided timely updates and many pictures of our dogs hanging out. We were very happy to use Taylor and will absolutely reach out to her again for future visits and stays during our travels.”
“Colleen was so awesome. She accepted my booking request last minute and worked with me on drop in times to make sure my boys were taken care of. She was great with them during visits and provided photos!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for pets for family and friends for several years. I provide loving and patient care and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a dog mom of two myself, I understand how important it is to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away, so I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I work Monday thru Friday but my schedule is flexible and I alternate between going into the office and working remotely (typically only going into the office 1-3 days per week). Because I have two dogs at home myself, my schedule is already set up with breaks on the days I’m in the office to allow for potty breaks. I live in a house with a fully fenced in backyard in a safe and quiet location. I do own two friendly golden retrievers myself, but am happy to accommodate your pet by crating mine and/or separating them if your dog is anxious. I will discuss with you what you are comfortable with and adjust as needed!
About: Aside from experience taking care of Cats, and Dogs, I also am experienced in Lizard Care, and I am willing to watch over exotic pets! I am relatively always free. I do plan to start college hopefully soon. However if something comes up, I am always very communitive with clients. I unfortunately do not have the space at my own house to board pets, however as someone staying overnight, or just popping in to take care of things, I am always respective of rules and boundaries. Tell me what I can or can't do, and I will follow that to a T. Pet wise, ill feed, water, and even clean up after them if any accidents occur. and I will ensure to give them lots of love and care as if they were my own. My services also extend to exotic pets. I am more experienced in care of reptiles, specifically lizards, (I am a very avid reptile lover), however if I have any questions I am able to communicate and look to my employer for answers and instruction. Pricing for exotic pets will follow the same listing for dogs!

Basic commands consist of come, sit, stay, down, paw, roll over, spot, center, heel, and leave it. I am currently in school full time but online, so I can easily work around your schedule. Being a college student online gives me extreme flexibility through the week. I am so excited to meet your furbabies! I currently live in an apartment. I normally crate my puppy when I’m not home. I can do the same for you if needed. Anything that is needed I will be willing to do my best to accommodate to that.
“Jennifer was on it! I needed her last minute help and she quickly responded and remained responsive the duration. She was accommodating and flexible and great pet care. I’m looking forward to having her contact for future bookings.”
“Ashley did a great job taking care of our three dogs over the holidays. One is a puppy still working on his house training which can be a lot of extra work but she was amazing. I got pictures every day and I came home to a clean house and three happy dogs!”
About: I’ve always had a special place for animals! Growing up, my home was sanctuary to 3 dogs, a cat, sweet guinea pigs, and even on occasion a ladybug or butterfly (in order to prove my caregiving skills to my parents). From my days dog-walking and pet-sitting, I honed in my pet are skills during my time working for a pet store and boarding clinic called Lucky Pets. At Lucky Pets I was able to master my pet-sitting skills, absorb many different types of dog training methods, and learn about all sorts of pet products and pet needs. I’m currently a recent graduate and UCF ROTC commissionee of the U.S. Army, and I’m awaiting my orders this summer. I have a car, and I’m able to drive to your house to watch over your pet! I’m very comfortable hanging out with your pet in mine or your home, and I’m able to feed, walk, and play with any animal big or small!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
