“She was wonderful. Our cats are unfortunately bad and broke glass and she very kindly cleaned it up and took out the trash for us. She has been super responsive throughout and we couldn’t ask for much more. One hundred percent recommend.”

“Fantastic experience with Natalie for drop-in visits! She was very diligent and friendly. By her last visit I could tell from her pictures that my pup was excited for her to be back for play time. So worth it to see such joy on my girl's face!”

About: I started pet-sitting at ten with my twin, quickly becoming the neighborhood’s go-to for pets, plants, and house care. I love checking in, feeding, walking, and playing with animals. As a recent college graduate missing my flatcoat Apollo, I’m comfortable with high-energy dogs, especially hunting breeds. My job takes up most of my day, so I'm available early mornings before 9 a.m. and after 5 p.m. I am flexible during lunch if I have a heads up. I provide in-home pet care, visiting your pets at their home to feed, walk, play, and give them attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them safe and comfortable, and I treat your home with respect while ensuring a clean, secure environment.

About: Because of my loving concern that I have for my very own dog, it really makes me one of the perfect candidates. I love my 🐕 he's rotten to the core. I am currently working a very stressful schedule which does not allow me the time that I would seriously love to have to spend with more or to care for that of others. You have to pay serious attention to details and not take everything to seriously dogs are our companions. Treat me just a such, because they deserve it

About: Hi, I’m Morgan! Dogs are my passion, and I’ve spent 12+ years caring for pups of all ages. With 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant and a background in animal science, I know how to keep dogs happy, healthy, and safe. I love keeping dogs active — a tired pup is a happy pup! I provide dog-sitting, dog-walking, bathing, and drop-ins, following all care instructions carefully and sending picture updates so you can see your furry friend enjoying their day. I currently work full-time, so I’m available after my shift on weekdays and full-time on weekends. I have one friendly dog to keep your pup company and can accommodate shy or special-needs dogs. I also have a spacious yard and access to nearby dog parks during quiet times for safe play. I’d love the opportunity to help keep your dog happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away! I work full-time at a veterinary hospital from 7:00 AM–3:00 PM on weekdays. Outside of these hours, I’m available for drop-ins or pet care as needed. I’m also free on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care to meet your pet’s schedule and needs. I provide a range of personalized pet care services, including drop-ins, dog-walking, and more. For drop-ins, I visit your home to provide fresh food and water, administer medication if needed, and give plenty of love and attention. I also engage with your pets through playtime, walks, or activities suited to their personality, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. If pets are in my care at my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with attention, playtime, and exercise. I always follow your specific care instructions, from dietary needs to medication and routines, so your pet feels right at home.

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.
