“Faith did an amazing job with our kitty! I have used many pet sitters through Rover and this has been my best experience so far. She communicated extremely well and followed instructions without issue. She left notes and a picture at each visit so I was never left guessing as to what was going on. I would not hesitate to book her again.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with all sorts of different pets. I live right next to a park that I love taking dogs to so they can run and play fetch! Monday through Friday I’m available for morning drop‑ins before my 7:00 AM–3:30 PM work shift, and I can swing by again during my lunch break. Weekends are completely open! After work, I’m fully available for walks, playtime, cuddles, and any extra check‑ins your fur baby needs. Boarding at my home is also an option if that’s easier for you! I have a fenced backyard and a park right next to my house for lots of playing for pets that stay at my home! If I’m visiting in your home I will do my best to make your pets happy! I’ll play with them, make sure their belly’s are full and of course send you plenty of pictures.
“Jessica did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Hobbes. Although Hobbes is timid and probably never showed his face, Jessica came twice a day as planned and fed him according to instructions. We appreciated her commitment and promise to care for Hobbes as expected. She is trustworthy, kind, and professional. We will ask for her again in the future.”
“Robyn is amazing! She went above and beyond, took excellent care of our cat Muffin! She updated me right away and sent pictures. She has a lot of knowledge and experience with cats and she even took my packages inside. I’ll absolutely book her again in the future and I’m so glad to have found her as our cat sitter! Thank you!”
“Rin was great! She sent great photos of my kitty, and gave a detailed report, which helped me feel at ease about leaving her. Will definitely be reaching back out next time I leave town!”
About: I’m an experienced dog walker and pet sitter, new to the area and currently accepting new clients with flexible, wide-open availability. I have two dogs of my own—Franny (a senior queen 👑) and Carlos—so I really understand that every pet has their own pace and personality. Whether your dog wants a slow, sniff-everything stroll or a more active walk, I’m happy to match their vibe. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes (yes, even the strong pullers 💪) and focus on safe, positive walks with good manners and plenty of time to explore. I’ll treat your pets like my own—with patience, attention, and lots of care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I currently have a flexible schedule with availability on weekdays, weekends, and for overnight stays. I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day—whether that’s walks, feedings, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I make it a priority to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide care in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime, and take the time to understand your pet’s personality and needs. Whether they’re high-energy or more laid-back, I adjust my approach to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’m very respectful of your home and keep things clean, secure, and as you left them. I’m mindful with doors, gates, and leashes, and always prioritize safety. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is simple: to keep your pet relaxed, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pocatello
We had a wonderful experience with Robyn she took great care of our dogs, Midnight and Eppie, and kept us updated throughout the weekend with messages and photos. Eppie can be a little shy and slow to warm up to new people, but she was patient and kind with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dogs were being looked after so well while we were away. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pocatello stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
