“Alicianna has been incredible through our entire experience. Even when our boy got a little feisty with her, she was still so incredibly sweet. She was our first ever dog sitter and I couldn’t be more grateful because we felt at ease knowing she was taking great care of our boy☺️”

About: I personally have a cat and dog of my own and I’ve taken care of them, I am very precise when it comes to my babies. I will treat your fur babies just like they were my own. I believe every pet is unique in their own way, that what makes them adorable. Pet care fit into my daily or even weekly routine by getting me out there around all kinds of fur babies. I currently go to school at ECU so it would be a great stress reliever just to play or walk with pets. I would be available for weekends and on weekdays, preferably Monday after 2 and Fridays free all day unless booked otherwise. I would care for them in my home by making sure they feel safe and comfortable to roam around without any hesitation. In clients homes I would make sure the client feels secured that their pets are in the right hands sending photo updates while I am there if needed.
About: Experienced in animal rehabilitation with a lifelong background growing up on a farm, providing compassionate, attentive care to multiple dog breeds and animals of all ages. As a young adult with no children or personal pets, I offer a calm, spacious environment with plenty of one-on-one attention—perfect for shy dogs needing comfort or outgoing pups ready for play and companionship. Since I’m in school, I’m only available Thursday–Sunday to be home and take care of them. If you’re comfortable with your pet being alone for up to 6 hours, I’d be happy to discuss scheduling. I want to make sure I’m able to provide your pups with the best care, attention, and companionship while they’re with me. When caring for pets, I pay close attention to their body language and individual needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and respected. My home has a fenced backyard where they can use the restroom, play, and get exercise. Pets can stay comfortably inside the house or in the garage depending on their needs and preferences. I am happy to discuss any specific routines, requirements, or accommodations to help provide them with a safe and enjoyable stay.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats over the last 25 years. I have my own dog and cat but have also cared for friends dogs and cats. I currently cannot have them in my home but it is easy for me to let them out, walk them, feed them, brush them and give them love. I have given medication to both dogs and cats and have cared for seniors as well. I am available evenings and weekends. I work Monday through Friday, with a volunteer job Sunday mornings. I am able to care after 4:30pm during the week and pretty much all day on Saturday. If I am letting your pet outside at your house I will be with them and watch them the whole time. I am unable to have them in my home at this time. I will spend time playing fetch or whatever I can to make your dog/cat happy.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 5 years and have about 6 years of experience caring for pets of friends and family, including walking, pet sitting and overnight stays. I have two rescue dogs of my own, so I have lots of experience with shy, anxious and socially nervous pups who may need a little extra patience and reassurance to feel comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from small puppies to larger breeds and have experience with different personalities and energy levels, including reactive and high-energy dogs. I’m also comfortable following special diets, giving medications and caring for dogs with allergies and other needs. I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s individual personality. Whether they’re playful and energetic or happiest cuddled up on the couch, I’m patient, attentive and happy to meet them where they are. My current schedule is very flexible, so I have broad availability for weekday, weekend and overnight care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and can accommodate multiple walks or potty breaks, regular feeding schedules and plenty of playtime and attention throughout the day. I’m also open to longer stays when my schedule allows. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I know from having two shy rescue dogs of my own that every animal has different boundaries, routines and ways of feeling safe, so I take the time to let pets get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’m attentive to instructions and happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I also understand how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and will always treat your space with care and respect. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos while you’re away! I’m also happy to help with small household needs like bringing in mail or packages and caring for plants during overnight stays.

About: I have always been the one everyone goes to for animal care. Animals are driven to me. And when I come into somebody's home, the animals always sit with me or love up on me. I know how to take care of a variety of animals from dogs, cats, exotic animals, too farm animals. I have started watching pets on my own and have nothing but great reviews. I work for myself and I need a flexible schedule, as my son is autistic. He loves having animals around as well. I am a single mom and I love the fact that I can teach my son the appreciation for animals and what they bring into the home. When I am able to care for your pet in my home, they are able to socialize with my dog is well. He is very active. He is a lab pit mix. He is friendly and never had any issue with any other kind of animals. Your pet will also have more one on one care. When i do check ups at your home I'm only there for a short time and tend to get anxiety from being alone too long.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pumpkin Center
We have used Abigail to care for our cat several times now, and she has been absolutely wonderful every single visit. She is so caring and attentive, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing our girl is in such good hands while we’re away. Abigail always sends detailed check-ins and plenty of photos, which we truly appreciate. She goes above and beyond by keeping food and water dishes clean, refreshing everything, and making sure our cat is comfortable and well cared for. It’s obvious that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We are so grateful to have found someone so reliable, thoughtful, and kind. I would highly recommend Abigail to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
Allison was a wonderful dog sitter! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my dogs. I really appreciated the regular updates and knowing they were in good hands while I was away. She followed all instructions carefully and made sure they were happy, safe, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Allison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter!

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.
