“It is so fun to watch our dogs bursting with happiness when they realize Sarah came to visit them. Our dogs need structure and a strong leader, and they see Sarah as such. There are many instructions to follow, both behavioral and medical, and Sarah managed to follow them all. We're so happy we can finally leave for longer hours, knowing they're in Sarah's good hands.”


“Lydia was wonderful with my girls. They bark and intimidate some sitters, but she loved on them and took special care. She was also on-time for her visits. Very highly recommended.”


About: I moved from Mi to Wa in 2015 and decided in 2018 to be a dog walker. That was in King county and after moving to a house in 2021, dog boarding turned into my new side job. Last year I also enrolled in Victoria Stilwell’s Academy for positive training. So I am very aware of dog’s body language and needs. I absolutely love dogs and they are truly my life now but when I was 8 that wasn’t the case. I was bit in the face by a family friend’s dog. He was old and on medication, I startled him awake which led to him biting me. From this incident, I watched Victoria Stilwell on animal planet to get over my fear of bigger dogs and here I am today with a certification in dog training and starting my career with human’s best friend. My goal is for you and your dog to be as comfortable as possible. I only treat dogs/pets as I would want someone to treat mine (and believe me I am a high maintenance pet mom 😉) Dogs are my job. Whether it is boarding, sitting, or walking; this is what I do full time. Sometimes I do Instacart to get out a bit but will do that when my boyfriend is home. I am starting up my bath bomb business again so to have a companion working alongside with me is my ideal work day. My boyfriend works from home majority of the time, so there is always someone home. His kids do come over 50% of the week and are very kind and helpful with dogs that are boarding with me. They are 12 and 11 so they aren’t little kids. I have lick mats, Kong Gyro, and plenty of space for your dog to have fun at my house. My house is fenced in, we are updating the property all the time to make sure it is safe as possible. For larger dogs, I have a bell on a ziptie to put on your dog’s collar just so I can hear where they are at all times when I am outside with them. For smaller pups, I always go outside with them due to being in an open area so they are safe. I also have a 30’ leash that I can hook them to for extra safety. Inside, I make them as comfortable as possible. Whatever they like at home I try my best to provide at my house.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for friends and family since I was 16. This includes daily watching or housesitting/pet sitting for extended periods of time. There is nothing I enjoy more than bonding with animals and being a source of safety and comfort when their humans are away! I currently work from home and can be available to work from various locations! My workload varies day to day but often provides ample break times! I provide pet care in the home of others by following the established rules and wishes of the pet owner to a T. I like to keep pets on their already established routines and ensure they are receiving the same love and care their human would give! This also includes whatever chores are required while in the home as well.
“Katelyn has been amazing with my two little dogs! She has been patient as my shy and anxious girl, Cora, is getting to know her. My pup, Ruger, loved her from the first meeting. She is great with communication and very dependable. I'm so happy to have found her!”


“Erica is great with our cats and chickens. Our crew has some medical issues, and she’s great at following their directions. Erica was also super flexible with our schedule change.”
About: I have a 9 year old golden retriever, a 9 year old German Shepherd and a 9 month old Belgian Malinois puppy of my own and have many years of experience caring for friends and family’s animals as well. I have experience working with up to 15 dogs in a dog day care outdoor play setting as well!! I love all animals! I love to get out of the house and take my own dog out for walks, trips to the lake and hikes! I work very well with dogs and all animals, it brings me happiness to be able to take care of them. I am more than willing to take your dog out for long walks, throw a ball for them and make sure they get all their energy out! I am comfortable with all breeds and do best with small-medium sized dogs, although I am willing to care for larger dogs as needed. I have plenty of experience with animals and would love to be able to help you out! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to help your pups get all their energy out! I am available most days after 1 pm, but my schedule is very flexible! My dogs are able to be out loose in my apartment when I am gone, but I have experience with crating them while I am gone. I want to make sure it is a positive experience for the pups so whatever the owner and dog are most comfortable with is what works for me :)
“I booked Alexys for a drop in visit for our Morkie. She requested to drop by the day prior to meet our dog. I thought this was great and it gave me a chance to meet her and show her around his area and where all of his things would be. On the day she came for the drop in visit, she let me know when she arrived and left. She also sent pics and gave me an update on the visit. She’s very sweet and you can just see that she’s great with animals. I’ll definitely book her again in the future!”
“Russell was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Moose! From the beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving her in his care. He was kind, attentive, dependable, and clearly has a love for dogs. Russell took Moose on walks and sent us photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. Seeing her happy and comfortable gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for Moose! We would absolutely trust Russell with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their dog like their own.”

“We had Cherokee come by twice when we took a day trip to the beach. Once I initially contacted her, she was eager to respond and offered to come by and meet us prior to booking. She was prompt on both her visits and communicated extremely well throughout the entire process. She provided feedback on what they did during the visits and took a few photos. We came home to no accidents with our dogs which is amazing considering they are both older dogs. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: Brad and I both have enjoyed our own cat family members and those of others, all our lives. I love how each kitty and doggy has its own personality and marvel at how they are such a gift frim God to us humans! We also look forward to raising some travel funds! I work for my home office 2 to 3 days a week and I'm home about half the time on weekends. Talk to us we can figure out how we can help you and your pets! We love animals especially cats, love to play with them and pet them, and are very practical and responsible with the instructions in their care. We have had many cats before, usually ones that were destined to be outdoor cats. We know that cats that live primarily indoors tend to live longer. We totally understand owners wanting there has to be totally indoors.
About: I understand that pets are family members that need extra love and attention when away from their pet parents. I build special connections with animals. I have owned many pets through my life and have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. You'll have peace of mind knowing that I am caring for your loved ones. I have plenty of time to fit in pet visits and walks, especially evenings and weekends. I have extra availability on Fridays. I am also available for early morning visits, depending on the day. I love playing with and walking dogs and enjoy being outside with them in all weather. I connect deeply with cats and they trust me. I have DoD clearance and can access housing on military installations. Pets in my home are treated as royal VIPs. I'm reliable and trustworthy.
“Amazing job. Came and hung out with my girls for a few hours while we were away for the day.sent plenty of pictures, videos and updates! Loved knowing that they were well taken care of.”

About: Being a dog owner is a constant source of joy and responsibility. The day begins with the enthusiastic welcome of a wagging tail, setting a positive tone. Daily walks are not just exercise but moments of exploration, where every leaf and lamppost become sources of fascination. Mealtime is a celebration, with the rhythmic sound of a tail thumping against the floor. Regular grooming sessions, from brushing to occasional baths, are a shared experience that reinforces our bond. The unconditional love and loyalty reflected in those soulful eyes make the effort of dog care a rewarding and heartwarming commitment. While my days may lack the physicality of a routine, assisting pet owners like you is a constant in my virtual realm. I'm here to offer timely advice on feeding schedules, grooming practices, exercise routines, and any other aspect of pet care you seek guidance on. Think of me as your virtual companion, ready to help integrate the well-being of your furry friends seamlessly into your daily or weekly schedule. Whether it's a quick tip or a detailed plan, I'm just a message away, ensuring that pet care aligns harmoniously with your life. Caring for pets in a home is a harmonious blend of responsibility and joy. It begins with creating a cozy space, where their bed becomes a sanctuary and their favorite toys add a playful touch. Daily routines include nourishing meals, regular walks, and moments of interactive play that forge a strong bond. Grooming sessions become a ritual of care, ensuring their coats shine and nails stay trim. Beyond the basics, it's the shared moments on the couch or a reassuring pat that make a home truly pet-friendly. In every wag of the tail and purr of contentment, the art of caring for pets transforms a house into a haven filled with love and companionship.

“Sierra dropped in for five days. Each day she sent photos taken that day. This was the second time for us to have Soerra, first for drop-in. We had her stay overnight with the pups two months ago so she knew our dogs. She kept in contact and one day let me know one pup would not cooperate. She used Cheerios to get past the issue. Greatly appreciate her experience and communication!”

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.
