“Diana was very accommodating & was able to help me out at the last minute. She did very well with my two dogs & they seemed to be very comfortable with her. She followed my detailed instructions & didn't appear to have any problems with my sometimes problematic dog. I would definitely recommend Diana to those who need a caring, responsible pet sitter.”
“Sarah was very quick to respond back to booking request. Communication was very easy and helped me out with a last minute booking. Will definitely use again in the future!”
About: I've had cats my whole life, and while I've never owned a dog, I've pet sit for my family and friends on multiple occasions. And, for the past two years I've been working for a pet sitting company! It's been a great joy to get to know the dogs and cats I have met over the past two years. I also have worked in a shelter enviroment and have enxperience administering medicine and vaccines, as well as with dogs and cats with specific behavorial needs. Since I have four cats of my own right now I won't be able to house any animals in my home, but I have a car and am happy to drive to your house and take your pets to wherever they might need! I'm currently devoting most if my time to pet sitting and am willing to fit in a visit or a walk anytime, and any day of the week. I'm happy to work overnight in your house, but since I have four cats who have wildly different personalities, I won't be able to house any pets in my home. I pride myself on being able to figure out what an animal needs, and on being patient with pets with any sort of special behavioral, or medical needs.
About: We have owned, rescued, and fostered many fur babies, including seniors and those that have medical needs and hospice care. Fur babies are unconditional love! I am retired and have a lot of time for fur babies. Taking care of fur babies are what keeps me active and, on the go. I have a fenced yard and three smaller dogs that love to play and cuddle. My home is more suited for fur babies then humans!
About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for 10 years now. I’ve taken care of dogs as young as 6 months and as old as 10 years. I’ve watched pets for both friends and family along with caring for my own! I love animals very much I work full time in behavioral health and recruitment and retention. I am available Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays all day long as those are my days off from my full time job. I’m very trust worthy and kind. If you need someone to play with your cat or dog, feed them, or take them for a walk I’m here! Your house are your rules and I assure your home and pets will be treated with the upmost respect and care! I’ll treat your pets and home the same way I’d want someone to treat my cat and home! Your fur babies will be in the best care 💓
About: I've had big dogs my entire life so I'm incredibly confident in my abilities to take the best care possible of your dogs! I get along great with dogs young and old as well as big and small and have had experience dealing with reactive dogs as well. I didn't have cats growing up due to family members' allergies but I have been cat sitting for a few years for my friends and I hope to one day own a cat as well :) I've also had experience working with fish, frogs, geckos, and other small animals. I love critters big and small and work great with all types of animals! I'm a senior at the University of Maryland with a fairly relaxed schedule so I have more than enough time to make sure I'm there for your pets in every way possible! I live in an apartment on campus so unfortunately I am not currently able to board animals but I have a car so I can drive to you and can access dog parks, pet stores, and vets easily if need be. I have no allergies to pet saliva or dandruff and am comfortable working with all kinds of animals!
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and various small animals, I'm well-prepared to look after your beloved pet. As a current owner of two dogs(cockapoo and pitbull), five cats, and two guinea pigs, I'm comfortable with senior pets, administering medications (even to picky eaters!), and doing whatever it takes to ensure your peace of mind while you're away. I currently work a full time job with a block schedule so I know my availability ahead of time. Even on the days I work I am willing to stop by before and/or after work. I am great with late nights as my shifts end at 3AM I am respectful entering my clients home and willing to follow any instructions provided to me. If I am ever unsure about anything I will contact my client to ensure I’m giving their pets proper care.
“I would highly recommend Emma to anyone!! She is always great with our dogs and you can clearly tell they all love her and are always so happy to see her. She has cared for our senior dog before he passed away, who needed some extra TLC. Now she takes care of our two very strong, high energy pit mixes. She has administered medication to all of our pups when needed with no issues. She’s also great at communicating with any general questions, concerns or updates. I am confident that our pups are always in safe hands with Emma!”
“Brittany was amazing! Basqui was in great hands and I can tell she enjoyed her company when I returned. She had great communication, was punctual and shared pictures throughout her time with Basqui. I would highly recommend Brittany.”
About: I've have been taking care of pets for 6 years. I go above and beyond to make sure your pet get the best quality and pampering. I have a cat and dog of my own pets while finishing my daily chores. I keep of my pets make sure they not being mischievous. Making sure there's nothing dangerous they could chew on or eat. I constantly clean the house to keep it intact. I have taken care of others pets and I do exactly as they requested. I give them pictures and keep them up to date on what I did and how they're pets are doing while they're away.
“Hadiya is wonderful! It's difficult to find someone you can trust with your fur babies and your home. As soon as we met Hadiya, we knew she was the right person. We have two shy kittens (other cat sitters had taken care of them for weeks at a time and never even saw them). But they warmed up to Hadiya almost instantly! We couldn't believe it. Hadiya is detailed oriented, reliable, thorough, and so sweet with our cats. She took the time to build their trust AND got all the care tasks done too. We can't recommend her enough.”
About: Hi! I’m an EMT and lifelong animal lover who brings the same calm, responsible energy to pet sitting that I bring to my work. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable staying calm when things don’t go exactly as planned — your pup is in good hands with me! I’m also someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs, whether that means going for a walk, playing, exploring, or settling in for a good old-fashioned snuggle session. 🐾 I’m clean, respectful of your home, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ll make sure your furry friend gets plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and companionship while you’re away. Basically: responsible enough to trust with your home, fun enough to keep your dog entertained, and always available for a good cuddle. ❤️🐶 I have other commitments which are flexible, this allows me to be thoughtful about the bookings I take on. I’m happy to work with your routine and your pet’s needs whenever my schedule allows. I value quality time over rushing from one visit to the next, so when I commit to caring for your pet, I want to make sure I can give them the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. I truly believe that caring for someone’s home is an extension of caring for their pets. I treat every home I stay in with the same respect, care, and attention I would want someone to give my own. I’m naturally clean and tidy, and I take pride in leaving a space feeling just as comfortable and cared for as when I arrived. I’m respectful of personal belongings, mindful of house rules and routines, and always make sure things are secure and well looked after.

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.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Meet & Greet.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
