About: Hello! I grew up with three dogs and a cat, all rescued. I’ve been pet-sitting since freshman year of high school and absolutely love it! I would like to meet your pet beforehand :) On Fridays and Saturdays I am not in school, so I have all the time to be with your pet! I can usually do check-ins three times a day, possibly more. For check-ins, I typically take some time to hangout and live on your furry friend! Along with whatever care you think is best fit :)

“Brooke is so wonderful! She really cares for my cats and is so communicative. She really puts my mind at ease, knowing my cats are well cared for. My one kitty was acting a bit off and she communicated with me every day with details about her behavior and eating/drinking habits. Having Brooke as a sitter gives us so much confidence that our kitties are well taken care of!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience and genuine love for animals. I have had horses for 10 years, which has taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and understanding animal behavior. I also worked for a year and a half as a veterinary assistant at a vet’s office while I was in high school. While I am definitely not a professional veterinarian or animal behaviorist, that experience gave me a better understanding of animals and made me more aware of changes in their behavior, health, and overall well-being. I know how important your pets are to you, and I will always treat them with the same care, attention, and patience I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I am available for bookings on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. On Mondays, I have classes from 12:45–2:10 PM and 3:00–4:25 PM, so I am available before and after my classes. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes from 3:00–4:25 PM and 5:30–6:55 PM, which gives me a good window between classes to check on your pet, depending on the distance from campus. I am also able to plan my schedule around your pet’s needs and make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to learn their individual needs, personality, feeding schedule, medications if needed, and any specific instructions from their owner. I also make sure they have fresh food and water, attention, playtime, and plenty of care and companionship while their owners are away. I treat each home with the same respect I would want for my own and always make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. Most importantly, I want both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident that they are in good hands.

About: I’m currently a student at Georgia Southern! I have a family dog back home I took care of daily and took care of my siblings dogs when needed. I also volunteer at my local animal shelter. I absolutely love animals and can’t wait to help take care of your pets! Before booking, I would love to meet up to meet you and your furry friend. I’m looking to make money for college and I’m hoping to make this a more permanent career choice that fits my schedule while at school. I can easily clean up pet messes and have no problem dealing with energetic pups. Caring for your pets is no issue and they’ll get lots of playtime, walks, and love.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life, and it’s always been my dream to become a veterinarian. I have a small farm with goats, chickens, and cats, so I have experience caring for different types of animals and understanding their individual needs. I’ve always loved helping animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m also comfortable caring for animals of different ages and personalities, and I’m always willing to learn anything specific that your pet needs! I’m currently working part-time while attending school, so I have a flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends, and I’m generally available from 8 AM to 8 PM. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pets get the attention and care they need. I always prioritize the safety, comfort, and happiness of every pet in my care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I will treat your home with respect and make sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of animals for 22 years, and I absolutely love it. In fact, my whole life I wanted to be a Vet Tech. I love animals, and have a special connection with each of them. I am currently not working full time, as I just had a baby 6 months ago, so I am able to invest my time and energy with my children and with animals. I will be warm and welcoming to all animals, treating them like my own. I enjoy spoiling fur babies and treat them like real children. I will make sure the animals are safe, fed, comfortable, loved, and anything else that they may need! I have a two story condo, with a back patio, small grass area to walk animals, and cozy spaces for fur babies! I would also be willing to go to the dog park or Mill Creek park with the pets.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs. I have a beagle back home with my family, which has taught me how much pets mean to the people who love them. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, dogs who need medication, and pets with all kinds of personalities and routines. Every pet is different, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe and comfortable! My goal is to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own while you’re away. I’m currently a college student, which gives me a flexible schedule to spend quality time with the pets I care for. I make pet care a priority and always plan my day around the pets I’m watching so they get attention, exercise, and many potty breaks!I’ll also send updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well! I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful because they’re part of the family. I always do my best to stick to their normal routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, or just giving them extra cuddles. I want your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away, and I’ll care for them the same way I would want someone to care for my own. Their happiness and safety will always be my top priority.

About: Hi I’m a city girl who loves animals and especially dogs. I grew up with dogs and I actually have my own pup named Shelby! She is a gorgeous mixed who I adopted from the pound. We love to spend time playing and training together! It helps keep us both stimulated ☺️. Me and my cat Greyson love to cuddle and he loves to play tag with his sister sometimes! I have been pet sitting since the age 10 and I have dealt with small , big, young and the old dogs. I’m able to make connections with any type of dog. I have dealt with dogs with special diets and needs. I love all dogs equally and would love to get to know your babies each. I do have doggy treats and toys but I would love to have any future friends bring their own. I also have experience working for a doggie day camp named pet paradise where I was taught and trained to understand dog and cat behavior so trust that your furry friends are in the best care! I currently have an open schedule and am home most days so I have complete flexibility to spend time and play with your furry friends! I have a one active friendly dog who loves to play and chase so if you are comfortable she is looking for a play date! I love to go on long walks and trips for treats! For my cats it depends on there comfortable level but for mines we do tons of chase play and cuddles!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from tiny toy breeds to large working dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I provide patient, loving, and personalized care for each one. I'm comfortable administering oral medications, reinforcing basic training and good manners for puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs who may need extra patience and support. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to treat every pet like family, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in experienced, compassionate hands. I have open availability and work from home, so your pet will rarely be left alone. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a large, fenced backyard for safe outdoor fun and can provide potty breaks every 2 hours—or more frequently if needed for puppies or senior dogs. Here's a warm, professional response that's well suited for a Rover profile: Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime while making sure they always have fresh water, meals on schedule, and a safe, comfortable environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play, including access to a large, fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Since I work from home, they're rarely left alone and receive frequent potty breaks, companionship, and lots of affection throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any training routines. I also make sure your home is respected and secure while keeping you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

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 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 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.
