“Christa is the best! She is so nice to help taking care of Toba for a last minute request. Our boy Toba was still recovering from diarrhea and needs probiotics for a few days. I was worried about this situation happened right before our trip. She is so patient for this extra care. From our first meet I just felt right that I can trust her! During our trip we received a lot of pictures and detailed updates from her. We can tell Toba really enjoyed meeting her and the walks! She really took a good care of my boy. We came home with a fully recovered and happy boy and felt so grateful for Christa’ s help! Christa is definitely the one you can fully trust with your little family member! We will have her back next time and highly recommend her to all!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience. I currently serve as an active board member for a non-profit rescue and have a passion for providing attentive, reliable care to every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with medication administration, basic veterinary care, and handling animals with different personalities and needs. At home, I have my Aussie, Harley, plus a fully fenced one-acre yard perfect for safe play and exercise. I’m active, dependable, and excited to provide loving care! I currently have a flexible work schedule with ability to WFH. Walks available weekdays and weekends and boarding available in my home ! ! ! My yard is about a half acre fully fenced in, trails behind which I am able to take dogs on walks and a quiet private cul de sac for walks. I have a 5yr old Australian Shepherd who is very playful and always looking for friends , but is respectful of the boundaries of another dog if they do not like to play.
About: Ive taken care of people's pets while they were away. I even stayed at their house. I am trustworthy and reliable when it comes to taking care of people's pets. I'll make sure the animals are well taken care of especially pets that are older. I currently work full time at a nursing home kitchen as a dietary aide. I usually work 6-2. Tuesdays I work 10-7:30. The only days I am off are Thursdays and Sundays. So anything after 3 is fine and Thursdays I am available all day. I will care for your pets with love and affection. I will walk your dogs and feed them. I will also play with them to get a feel of how they interact. As for cats I will feed them and play with them as well. I enjoy rewarding them with treats.
About: I really focus on structure and training not just basic walks and cuddles. I have hands on experience helping dogs with obedience recall and leash manners and I am comfortable following a family’s training plan or reinforcing commands your dog already knows. I especially enjoy working with puppies who need consistency and socialization and I am also happy to give senior dogs gentle walks slower routines and lots of quiet time. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like a student calm patient and consistent while still making sure they get love play and plenty of mental stimulation. I am happy to send photo and video updates follow your schedule for treats and meds and create a routine that fits your dog’s personality instead of a one size fits all approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am already used to being around dogs and building consistent schedules. I set aside time each day for walks play training reviews and check ins so pet care does not feel like an add on it just slots into my normal rhythm. I am also a student with flexible hours so I can plan walks visits or in home stays around your dog preferred times and your schedule. Treating pets like part of my routine helps me give them steady attention the same kind of structure they are used to at home. I care for pets in my home by giving them a quiet dedicated space where they feel safe, plenty of breaks outside, and regular meals and potty breaks on a schedule. I keep the environment calm and predictable, avoid overstimulation, and follow your instructions for treats, toys, and any training cues your dog already knows. If I am at a client’s home I keep the same routine, making sure your pet gets walks playtime, and cuddle breaks while respecting your house rules. I always check in with you first about anything unusual and send updates so you can feel at ease while you are away.
“Joyce was absolutely incredible. I needed a last-minute sitter who would be able to administer both oral and ophthalmic medications to my cat, Charlie. She didn’t even hesitate and said she’d be able to do it. She came twice a day and kept me updated with both pictures and texts to let me know Charlie’s improvements while I was away. I knew he was in great, loving hands. I wish I had found her sooner! I will be reaching out to her again when I need a sitter. She’s the best!”

“Laura was amazing. She was very caring with my 13 year old dog. She even carried her down the stairs because she had a hard time with her back legs. Laura carried her outside also so my dog didn’t have to maneuver more stairs. She kept us updated and send video and pictures. I would totally recommend Laura. She is professional, caring, friendly and knowledgeable. She hand fed my dog to make sure she ate. She was on time with her visits. Again, I would highly recommend Laura.”
“Jeffrey was on time and very attentive to our dog. We greatly appreciated his updates and photos. His reliability and caring for our dog gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
About: I have had a wide range of experience caring for a variety of pets ever since I was a young child. I have taken care of dogs and cats for over a decade. Your pet will have all the attention and care they need during their time with me or in my home. I work Monday to Friday with weekends off. I am able to care for them before and right after work, with family home during the day as well. I care for pets by feeding them their proper diet, playing with them/making them feel welcome, making sure their bathroom needs are met, and updating the owners.

“Jahari helped us out last minute when we needed someone with an extra skillset to check in on our girl. We highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter and in particular anyone needing the extra layer of assurance a vet tech can provide. He is super kind and accommodating and we are glad to have found him!”
“My pups love Kayla! She is a very punctual young lady who pays attention to detail. I have 2 English Bulldogs who have very specific needs and she followed my notes to the T. You can tell she loves and truly cares about animals from her interaction with them. My pups can't wait until they get to spend 5 days with her when we go on vacation! Thank you again Kayla !”

About: I'm very attentive to detail and always make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines that your pet may have. I'm also very reliable and will always show up on time for visits. Pet sitting can be a great way to break up your day and get some fresh air. You can schedule visits around your other commitments and enjoy some quality time with your furry friends. Your pet's home away from home. The safety and environment for a pet should be comfortable, clean, and secure. The pet should have access to food and water, as well as a comfortable bed or crate. The environment should be free of hazards and dangerous objects. Additionally, the pet sitter should be trained in pet care, including how to handle emergencies.
“I have 3 elderly dogs and was worried about leaving them. Monika did a great job taking care of my 3 Pomeranian babies and attending to their individual needs. I will definitely rebook with Monika.”
About: Hi, my name is James and I am an active and energetic animal lover that has had dogs and cats my entire life. In addition to my own pets, my wife and I have fostered with local dog and cat rescues for the past 10 years. My love for animals doesn't stop there, I have worked in the zoological industry for the past 20 years. My first 15 years as a zookeeper and the last 5 as a zoo curator. If you have domestic farm animals or exotics of any kind, I am very comfortable caring for them. I have experience administering medications and specialized diets, as well as, giving injections as needed. If you are looking for someone with a wealth of experience in caring for animals, please reach out. I am working full time, but am still able to overnight, if needed. Otherwise, I am available for any morning and evening care that is wanted. I'd prefer not to take care of any pets in my home for the time being due to the fact that we have several fosters, as well as our own pets.
“1st time using Laura - seemed genuinely interested in getting to know my dog Pickles, sent pictures and communicated before and after the visit to let me know how everything went. Will definitely be using Laura again when I need someone to care for my Pickles.”

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.
