“This was our first time using rover and we would like to thank Jessica K for being so good to the dogs. We were very nervous at first due to hearing bad reviews about rover but Jessica made sure were comfortable and the dogs immediately like her when she came for meet and greet. Throughout our trip Jessica sent photos of the boys to us and that made us relax on our vacation. We will definitely book Jessica again. Thank you again for taking care of the dogs and making sure we didn’t have to worry about them on our trip. We appreciate you.”
“Excellent walker/sitter... Norma loves her and took to her without a issue... Jessica is very professional and very informative with her walks and check ins... HIGHLY RECCOMMEND!!! Will for sure use her again!!!”
About: I have always lived in a dog household- I find myself happiest when around canine friends. I have walked, dog-sat, and generally been around dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I look forward to learning the specific needs of your canine friends, and how to best support them when you are away. I work from home, and have a lot of flexibility on where I work from. Although I am working during the hours of 10 am - 6 pm, I remain open for discussion on needs of your pet. I can regularly step away to take care of pets, as well as house-sit and work from anywhere. Open to catering to your needs! I have experience working with larger dogs with... more assertive walking styles, as well as will pups that are just along for the ride. I love hiking, playing fetch, and always love to work with dogs in enrichment activities with food/treats.
“Emily was awesome! She did such a great job taking care of our precious kitty. Our kitty warmed up to her instantly and I know appreciated the company while we were away. Emily, also, even went above and beyond and moved some boxes in that got delivered from our baby registry that I know were not light. She is very communicative, sweet, and I would book her again in heartbeat next time we go out of town.”
“Sara was wonderful at communication, respecting the house rules and accountability. She got the initial drop in visit start time wrong, but she took accountability and fixed it right away. It's totally fine that mistakes happen, and Sara handled it very professionally. She also posted updates per drop-in with photos, and did call us when health concerns arise like we requested. I would highly recommend her service to others as a very trustworthy sitter. I would 100% book with her again!”
About: I have experience with animals of all sorts; such as cats, dogs, hamsters, bunnies, Guinea pigs and fish. I’ve raised animals nearly all my life and have experience watching pets for friends. I also have experience attending and graduating a veterinary technician school program. I currently work full time Monday-Friday. I do live on base, so I am able to do multiple check ins and potty breaks throughout the day I no longer accept un-neutered dogs. Please do not request services if your male dog is not neutered. Photo/video updates will be given throughout the stay. I can crate your dog(s) if needed. I can also take them to the dog park at my apartment complex if needed. I do have a small child that has experience with pets and loves to cuddle with them.
“Kathleen took great care of Wilfred while we were gone over Labor Day. It was the first time we used a new Rover sitter in our new neighborhood, and we got super lucky finding her last minute. We even decided to stay out of town for an extra day/night mostly b/c Kathleen was so flexible and happy to check on Wilfred for an extra day/night. She's definitely at the top of our list now for sitters for both check-ins or longer trips!”
About: I grew up having pets of all kinds, from horses, raccoons, ferrets, a pig, dogs, cats and fish. Feel free to message me with questions. I’m not working currently so I’m flexible with my time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals for about 18 years. We have always had animals since I was born, I’m a stay at home mother so I’m home 24/7 for your fur babies! From friends, to neighbors I’m always their go to fur sitter. They depend on me when it comes to bathes, dog walks, feeding, daily exercise and daily fun. I’m currently working full time but I always make time for my fur babies any way as possible they are treated with love and care on a daily basis. I have a fenced in yard that they would be able to use daily! I also have other areas for any different animals as well, we have a farm with 18 acres so there is so much room and trails on the property for walking !
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes including my own Great Dane who is 6 years old. We also had a pit mix who passed away last year unexpectedly. I trained both of my dogs myself and I am comfortable around any breed! I have experience giving daily medication as well as walking multiple dogs at a time! I currently work from home so I am home all day and mostly on weekends unless I run an errand or two. We love taking early morning and late evening walks to avoid this summer heat! I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door to provide free access to being indoors or outdoors. I keep large bowls of ice water available at all times. I can also provide a fairly large crate if need be along with food bowls. Your dog must be child friendly or have shown no aggression towards people as I do have a 10 month old who is on the move but always monitored!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
