About: I have been around all types of breeds, sizes, and temperament all my life. I have a special place in my heart for big dogs! I have trained dogs with basic commands, walked, fed, bathed, and e-collar trained with many pets including my own. I house sit often for family friends, including their furry friends. I am currently in-between jobs and am looking to earn money doing something I love! I have my own car, and as I search for a new position lots of free time to care for pets or your home. I have had multiple family dogs, and cats throughout my life and they truly make my life full! I also treat my own and other pets and space with respect and love. I understand every pet has different needs and am always willing to understand to provide the best care possible!
“Veronica is very communicative and clearly loves taking care of the animals she's watching. We were very happy to find someone not only great with out kitties, but also knowlegeable about aquariums.”
“We wish we could give Hannah 1000 stars! Our sweet kitty girl was well cared for. Hannah went above and beyond expectations, made extra visits and eased our fears when we thought our little fluff was sick. Thank you Hannah….for being amazing!!!”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have always loved being around animals. Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve been a trusted friend for many people when they need someone reliable to watch their animals, whether that means feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’m responsible, attentive, and enjoy getting outside for walks and fresh air with dogs. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, or calm companionship, I’m happy to provide caring and dependable support while you’re away. I work remote and choose my own hours which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets around your schedule. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs and have been a trusted friend for many when they need someone reliable to look after their animals. I’m responsible, attentive, and love spending time outdoors, playing, and keeping pets happy and comfortable while their humans are away. When I care for pets in your home, I make sure to follow their routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I provide feeding, walks or playtime, litter box or potty care, and lots of attention and companionship. I respect your home and any rules you have, keep everything tidy, and send updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority.
“Kate helped us out last minute, and we were so grateful. Minnie takes a little time to warm up and Biggs is very needy, so they can be a lot sometimes. I would definitely recommend her, and we’ll reach out to her the next time we need someone.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased. Jane took the time to know me and my dog at a pre meet and greet . I felt very comfortable leaving Biscotti with her. I appreciated her sending a photo of their walk and debrief note after the walk . I will definitely be calling only Jane in the future”
“Hannah was so helpful taking care of our 4 cats for a brief trip! She was very reliable, available at the requested time, and did all the tasks we asked of her. She was also patient with our one shy cat who preferred to just hide from Hannah when she visited. Thanks Hannah, I hope to use you in the future :)”
About: Ask for my promo code for $20 off your first booking!! Hello, I am a full time student as well as a momma! I am home every weekend as well as holidays and love animals so this is a perfect fit! I do have the whole summer off as well! All pets are welcome but I do require that they be friendly if they are staying overnight at my home because I have dogs of my own! My hours are very flexible, so please feel free to message me if you have any questions about my schedule! I understand pets are family and I will take care of them and treat them as such! Your little ones will be in great hands with me! Thank you! I go to school online and I work as a preschool teacher so I’m home all summer, holidays and weekends with my pup and kid. All dogs are fed separately to prevent any mishaps! If for any reason I have to leave the pups unsupervised my dogs have kennels that they go in to make sure the pups aren’t unsupervised together.
About: I used to work as a Vet assistant, so I am familiar with geriatric and medically fragile animals. I am willing to trim nails or give injections or Sub Que fluids or whatever your baby needs. I have a diabetic kitty and have a history of being a hospice house for aging kitties. I am familiar with the at home medical care of many different diseases. I also am trained in animal CPR and First Aid so can handle most emergencies quickly and calmly. I am familiar with reptiles and other exotics so feel free to pm me about that. I grew up on a cattle ranch and trained cattle dogs as well as horses. I also have an Anatolian mix who weighs over 100lbs (born Jan 22) and love to take her out to explore. Although I'm sure your dog would love to join us! I have the most experience with herding and guardian breeds, though I love all animals My life revolves around the animals I care for. I am usually up by 7am. I feed my animals as soon as I get up in the morning and then around 6pm at night. Since I work at home, or can travel anywhere( I make custom sized medical suits and accessories for animals that don't fit the standard size range or have some for of deformity to work around) the animals are usually in the same room I'm working all day. While I may have a few errands throughout the day my schedule is pretty flexible. I have a 4yr old Great Pyrenees Anatolian mix who loves to go with me everywhere. She is good with other dogs, cats, goats, chickens etc. She also immediately adopts any baby she finds, human, dog, cat, chicks..... If love to bring her with me but I do have someone to take care of her if you'd rather I don't bring her. I try to get an understanding of what the typical routine for your pet is and how you do things so that they are less stressed about changes. With my own dog I'm very big on routine and structure at home. I try to keep things predictable for my animals and schedule my life around their routines.
About: I am an experienced caregiver of pets. In my family is Otis the dog, cats Earl and Sarah, a Galah Cockatoo named Warren and Henry and Marty McFly the budgies. Otis gets along with both dogs and cats and loves to have a buddy to romp with in the yard. I have met some of the most wonderful caregivers here on Rover who helped when I’ve needed to go out of town and would love to help other pet parents when they need to be away for a time. I will provide photos and keep you updated for your peace of mind. I work part-time night shift. My schedule varies but I have lots of availability for feathered and furry friends. Please feel free to check with me about your pet care needs. I have a fenced yard and can provide supervised outdoor playtime or cuddling on the couch. Our dog Otis loves company and to have playmates visit. He gets along really well with other dogs and with cats.
About: I’ve had all kinds of dogs and cats from seniors, puppies/kittens and energetic teenagers. At the moment we have a 9 year old German Shepherd and dog sit our Great Dane and Doodle grand puppy’s. I’ve have never met an animal I didn’t love. I’m happy to drive as far as Portland to Olympia. I’m young retired and looking to help with your pet needs. At the moment I’m available for house sitting, pet walking or just popping in to play and feed your sweet family members. We take our pets safety seriously. We lock all gates from the inside of the yard. When the doorbell rings all our animals must sit on their beds so no one escapes. Meals are at the same time every day and of course lots of conversation, love and cuddles.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rainier
Veronica was very communicative and sent me consistent updates/pictures of my kitties while I was out of the country. She even went as far as getting a new bag of litter before I returned to save me the effort since the litter was low. She also gave my spicy cat the space he required and all the pets/loves on my more social cat. I will definitely book Veronica again in the future.
Mikki has been caring for our golden for the past 10 months when she was just 8wks old. I schedule her to come twice a day and she has always been on time, consistent, and reliable. She always provides pictures and information about the drop in visits. If you’re deciding on who to go with give Mikki a try! She’s been great!

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.

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.
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.
