“We had the absolute best experience with Viridianne looking after our cat while we were away for an extended period of time. Communication was above and beyond, which made us feel so comfortable being away from our cat. She’s dependable and obviously loves animals! We will definitely ask for her services in the future when we are away ☺️”
“Nicholas is absolutely amazing!! He provided in home pet sitting for our 4 dogs for 5 days. He sent us pictures and videos of our pups daily. Our doggy crew were very calm and happy when we returned, and our house was left in pristine condition. We highly recommend Nicholas for all pet care needs and will definitely request his services in the future.”
“We could not be more pleased with the care Adoni provided for our 3-year old dog and our 6 cats while we were away for 4 days. She came to our house in advance for a meet & greet, at which time she showed great interest in each of our pets, reviewed the care plans, and asked excellent questions. As requested, she stayed in our home overnight and at least most of the time during the day. She was totally trustworthy, reliable and professional. Adoni consistently went above and beyond in her constant attention to the safety and wellbeing of all our pets. She followed instructions, including medication administration, with precision. Adoni was kind, loving and patient with all our pets; we could tell that she genuinely enjoyed being with them, and they were all clearly very comfortable with her. Adoni always responded quickly to messages. She was consistently communicative, regularly messaging with updates and photos of each pet. She asked questions as needed. All that allowed us to relax while we were away. She left our house clean and tidy. It was so good to leave our pets in safe and experienced hands. We highly recommend Adoni (10/10) and will not hesitate to request her services in the future!”
“Meredith was great! She met them a couple of times before we left, which really helped our older dog with anxiety. She connected so well with the pups. She kept us informed with pictures and videos, so we knew our pups were in good hands. She treated our home with care, too, which was appreciated. We would happily book with Meredith again!”
About: Animal lover since birth & I got it honest. My mom is a cat person & my dad is a dog person, so I’ve taken care of many throughout childhood. Sisters brought home class pets we all enjoyed having around. Now as an adult I foster animals in need. From baby through senior, I’m good with all ages & breeds. I currently have a flexible schedule. Check ups, potty breaks, feeding, & play time will be no trouble. I mostly have my phone on person, so getting in touch with me is quick & easy. I live in a wonderful, friendly apartment complex with my cat & husband. The property has 2 fenced in dog parks, sidewalks great for walks with plenty of poop stations around. Bigger dog park with miles of walking/ biking trails just 5 mins down the road. All animal(s) being taken care of are seen as my own & respectful of any wishes you have during our arrangement. I look forward to meeting you & your pet(s).
“So very happy, pleased and excited with the wonderful job Samantha did while caring for our dog. Samantha communicated daily with updates, made certain that all medications were given as directed, and left our house in excellent shape despite the rain, muddy footprints, and shedding of our lab! My husband and I look forward to having Samantha take care of our dog in the future.”
About: Ive been around pets all my life! I started raising dogs when I was 11 and have helped friends and nieghbors with their dogs and cats since I was 15. Tasks have ranged from small check-ins with pets, to staying overnight to keep them company. Right now I work at a local food pantry on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sundays are also a busy day for me, but I can be very flexible and move times around with enough notice. I have one black short haired cat that I spend most of my time with. She stays indoors, but I let her come out on my back deck to get some air and a better view of the birds and chipmunks she always has beef with. She's the most hyperactive and persnicity cat I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, so I'm experienced with cats who have their own ways of playing.
About: My love for animals began when I was growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, horses, ducks, and chickens. Over the years, I’ve also gained experience caring for smaller pets like ferrets, hamsters, and guinea pigs. Spending time with animals has always been therapeutic for me, and I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same care, attention, and love I give my own. I work full time Tuesday- Friday but am able for morning and afternoon check-ins, walks, feeding, & playtime! Weekends are pretty open ! I will do my best to keep your babies on schedule I can crate dogs I have space to have cats on their own, with own litter box and bowls I have a fenced in dog area where i can take pups to get the zoomies out
“Erika did a fantastic job with our girls! They bonded with her almost immediately. This was our 2nd time using Erika and we plan to continue using her services anytime we need a sitter in our home. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She is trustworthy and dependable.”
“Blanca was amazing!!! She stayed overnight with my 2 dogs. One dog is senior and the other we’ve only had for 3 months from the shelter. She taught the new dog several commands while giving lots of lovin to my senior dog. I will definitely book again! Thanks Blanca!”
“Gabe is a nice man with a great heart for your pet(s). He communicates well and delivers on his promises. I feel I can trust him again to take care of my fur family of five.”
About: I've been around dogs and cats for many years and genuinely enjoy caring enjoy caring for animals of all ages and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have helped take care of my neighbor's dogs, including senior dogs that required extra attention and daily medication. I have experience caring for smaller older dogs making sure that there comfortable, safe, and following any special instructions provided by their owners. but I'm always happy to provide equally the same services for larger dogs and cats also .I understand the importance of maintaining a solid routine, and administering any medications needed on schedule, and providing patients and companionship to pets who may need a little extra care. I treat every pet as if they were my own.my goal is to make pet and pet parent feel comfortable, confident and at ease I work as a substitute teacher and I'm self-employed to my hours are very flexible . which allows me to have an open schedule so that I can dedicate the appropriate time and attention need for the care of your pets. I prefer going to the clients home and I follow their instructions to the tee when it comes to the safety and wellbeing of the fur baby.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud dog mom myself, so I know just how much our pets mean to us. I have dogs of my own and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. Whether your fur baby needs an overnight sitter, walks, playtime, meals, or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I have two sweet doggies named Leo & Sparky who are 7 and 8 years old! I am a stay at home mom, so I’m very used to having a busy routine centered around caring for others. I also have dogs of my own, and taking care of animals fits naturally into my everyday life. I’m comfortable with routines, schedules, feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. Im a mom and I have dogs of my own, so I’m pretty used to taking care of everyone and keeping up with a routine 😂. When I’m watching someone else’s pets, I really just treat them like they’re my own. I’ll follow whatever routine they’re used to, make sure they’re fed and let out, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and of course lots of cuddles if they’re into that. I’ll also respect your home and leave things the way I found them. I know I’d be nervous leaving my own pets with someone, so I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re being loved and taken care of while you’re gone. 🐾❤️
“Brett was great with our dogs! We did a meet n greet the day before, and our dogs settled in with him fairly quickly when he came to house sit. He sent daily updates with pictures and videos, which was very much appreciated. We felt very comfortable knowing our dogs were so well taken care of while we were gone. We highly recommend Brett!”

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.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Quick walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Quick maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Quick choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
