“My first time using anyone at all to watch my pets. She is so great, went above and beyond! If you made it to her reviews just do yourself a favor and book 👏 My only concern is that your pets will probably like her more than you. She is so sweet to them! 🥹 Will most definitely use her again!”
“Natalia has become my puppy favorite person in the middle of the day. She always jumps with joy the minute she sees Natalia coming through the door, and my sweet little puppy doesn’t even notice when I leave! Natalia Tree, my puppy joy as a she was her very own. She’s always punctual, and followed my instructions to the letter. She is truly a lifesaver.”
“Five stars for Rossana! She took wonderful care of our cat, Cleo, while we were away in Napa Valley. We left very specific instructions for Cleo’s care, and Rosanna was incredibly detailed and followed everything exactly as requested. She made sure Cleo was fed and well cared for, spent time playing with her and giving her attention, and kept us informed throughout the visit. We were specifically looking for someone dependable, attentive, and professional to care for our cat while we were away, and Rosanna absolutely delivered. She is thoughtful, detail-oriented, communicative, and clearly takes her responsibilities seriously. We would recommend Rossana in a heartbeat and will absolutely book her again the next time we need someone to care for Cleo. Thank you for taking such great care of her!”
About: Moving to LA meant leaving my family dogs back home. Missing my four-legged besties led me to the world of pet sitting. My experience ranges from caring for Golden Retrievers to Bengal cats. With love and respect at the forefront, I take care of every pet as if it is one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around the pets in my care, whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, playtime, walks, or just being present for companionship. Because of this flexibility, I’m more than willing to adjust and mold my schedule to meet each owner’s specific needs and ensure their pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I focus on creating a comfortable, stress-free experience by sticking closely to each pet’s normal routine. I follow all care instructions carefully so pets feel secure and at ease. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment with plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and aim to keep everything consistent for the pet, which helps reduce anxiety while their owner is away. On top of that, I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, making adjustments as needed and ensuring they’re happy and comfortable. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Danielle is incredibly kind, easy to communicate with, and genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. She’s also clearly very comfortable and experienced handling larger dogs. My 140 lb pup was happy and well exercised when I got home. I’d happily book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Mina was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter for Luca. She was incredibly respectful of our home, always punctual, and kept us updated with plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Luca warmed up to her almost immediately, and it was obvious he felt comfortable and well cared for. We also have quite a few security measures for getting in and out of our house, and Mina was always thoughtful about letting us know everything was locked up and secure before she left. That attention to detail really meant a lot to us. We would happily book Mina again in a heartbeat if she’s available. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“So grateful for Brianna checking in on my kitty while I was out of town! My friend last minute wasn’t able to do check-ins and Brianna was so quick to respond and accept on short notice! She checked in during her visits and sent pictures even if my cat was hiding. She went above and beyond with resetting my Furbo so I could see my cat during my trip too. Would absolutely recommend her for any of your cat sitting needs and will absolutely be rebooking with her for future long trips!”

Danielle came to our house prior to the day we had scheduled her drop-in visits. I really appreciated the opportunity to meet her in person before-hand. Everything on the day of her taking care of the furry folks in our home, went according to plan and we got a cute photo in the bargain. We'd definitely ask her to care for our pets in the future.
Catherine saw Tony (my cat) last minute as I took an emergency trip. Could not have asked for a better person to take care of my fur baby. Tony evidently had a great time and I have all the pictures to show for it. Already scheduling for future visits. Thanks Catherine!
Zen has been great at taking care of my two fur babies! She kept everything organized and clean, and even helped take the used pads out to the trash on the last day without me asking. My babies were very happy and well taken care of. I’d definitely recommend her!

- 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.

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 .
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.
