“This was our first time using Rover, and Paige was simply amazing. She came over just to meet us beforehand, and she was so interested in our dog, Magic. She got down on the floor and played with him right away. Her reports were wonderful, and the pictures she sent every day were so fun to get. She truly loved him, and you could tell. She is responsible and she genuinely loves taking care of dogs. I never worried once. I knew Magic was in good hands, and we will definitely be using her again.”

About: I am an educator and musician who loves animals and enjoys spending time outdoors. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child. As an animal lover and cat owner myself, I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s a dog walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I take pride in treating every pet with kindness, patience, and attention. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pet. My professional background has taught me the importance of reliability, genuine care, communication, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet care visit. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to arrange my schedule around my clients’ needs and provide dependable care for their pets. The safety and well-being of your pets is always my top priority. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and take care to follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and personality needs closely. During dog walks, I use secure leash handling at all times and remain alert to surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs and always prioritize calm, controlled, and positive experiences for your pet. For cat sitting and drop-in visits, I ensure doors and windows are securely closed, litter boxes are cleaned properly, food and water are refreshed, and your cat is comfortable and stress-free. I also take time to provide companionship and gentle interaction based on each cat’s comfort level. I am reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In case of any emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow any instructions you provide, including reaching out to your preferred veterinarian if needed. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after while you are away.
About: Although I have owned cats and dogs my entire life, my real experience comes from working in the veterinary field. For the past 10 years, I have had the chance to assist in keeping pet's healthy and happy, and would apply the knowledge I have gained to your own pet! I know, understand, and love that each pet is unique in his or her own needs and wants, and I strive to make each pet as comfortable as possible while their family is away. That means sticking to as much routine as possible, treating them as my own pet, and maybe a little spoiling also ;) I'm also open to communication while you're gone, because I know it can be worrisome leaving your furry friend! I'm currently keeping my work schedule flexible, and am available for drop-ins & walks daily. I don't currently offer in home boarding or overnight stays. My goal is to keep your pet's routine & care as close to normal as possible. I pay close attention to appetite, energy, bathroom habits, and other indicators of wellness.
About: I've had and taken care of many cats for over 15 years, i would pet sit long before any of these apps were around. So i am a pro at this I have a well balanced daily routine but if things change i find ways to fit or change plans around to get things done. I am well managed. i don't do home care services for pets yet. Since i have my own pets i don't have the space to be able to accommodate
“Cristeen is very punctual and let my 3 cats on the screen porch each day which is what keeps them happy. She sends lots of photos and keeps cat food from collecting on the floor around food dishes with our mini vaccuum. She's a great communicator and very reliable.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 11 years, and animals have always been a big part of my life. After recently losing my own dog, I found myself really missing the joy that comes with having a pet around. I decided to join Rover so I could spend time with animals again while helping other pet parents feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and always respectful of each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home with my little one, which allows me to be around and attentive to pets throughout the day. I’m available primarily for boarding and can give your pet plenty of companionship, playtime, walks, meals, and cuddles. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make their stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. My home is a comfortable, family oriented environment where pets can receive plenty of attention and companionship. Safety is my top priority, and I’m careful to follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I’ll make sure your pet has a safe, clean, and comfortable space to relax, play, and feel at home. I’ll also keep you updated during their stay so you know how they’re doing.
“We highly recommend Jaza for all your pet sitter needs! She is a great communicator and very knowledgeable! Our Miso is shy and scared and Jaza was able to create a trusting bond with him in just a few days! This was the first time we left him and he had an accident the first day from nerves. Jaza went above and beyond to clean and sanitize the area and helped him feel comfortable. Her patience with him helped me feel less anxious about leaving him. We will absolutely have Jaza watch Miso for all future trips. Miso was a happy cat when we returned, thank you Jaza!”

About: Hi there! I grew up with animals and have been around them my entire life. My Grammy was part of the Golden Retriever Club of LA, a dog trainer, and a breeder. I assisted her many times growing up whenever she had a litter of puppies. I was even able to experience being in the operation room during one of the births to support the puppies when they were born. Animals have been a big part of my life and they have created so many beautiful memories for me to cherish! Currently, I have availability off and on throughout most days. I am a graduate student, so my schedule can change. Please refer to my calendar or ask me before booking! I have lots of experience caring for other's pets and family's pets as well over the years. I am always mindful when going into people's homes and often try to find small ways to leave it looking better than when I arrived.

“Bethany is awesome!! I contacted her rather last minute to check in on my skittish cat while I was away for an extended trip. She replied super quickly and we were able to schedule a meeting. My cat is fairly shy, but Bethany took the time and attention to form a bond with him. I would definitely book her again, as she has a lovely personality as well as a wonderful way with animals. Thank you, Bethany! ?”
About: My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved & cared for. I also want you to feel at total ease if you need to leave them and allow me to care for them. I know what it’s like to want the best for your pet. I’m a 4th grade teacher starting my second year teaching! My availabilities are generally weekends throughout the day and weekdays after 4/4:30. Pet care is an important part of my routine with my 12 year old Maltipoo. We go on night walks, quick morning strolls & if I’m ever off for the day, we love to go on fun, adventurous car rides. My dog, Pogo, always stays with one of my parents if I’m at work or away. Due to all of our schedules, he is never alone, so he is taken to the bathroom regularly. I like to keep him active & engage with him, allowing him to have the fullest enjoyment. That said, I carry the same actions when pet sitting. They receive full attention from me, because I know how crucial it is for pets to feel loved, especially when their pet parent is away.
About: I was born and raised on a farm in the Midwest, where animals were simply part of everyday life. We had pets of all kinds, and as a kid I spent countless hours feeding and patiently earning the trust of stray and wild cats. My mission was simple: make as many animal friends as I could. From a young age, I learned how to train and care for dogs, and I’ve spent years around cats of all personalities—from playful kittens to shy, independent adults. I understand that every pet is unique, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their families are away. I work full time but am home every night, and on the weekends. If a schedule routine is set I can be flexible where I am needed. I have a concrete wall surrounding my property with plenty of shade, includes a grass patch and room to play. I have multiple rooms inside my house to accommodate all pets.

“This was my first time using Rover, and it was hands down the BEST experience I could have asked for, especially with Chris caring for my dog & cat! 🐾 Chris has incredible communication skills and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind :) He is also extremely punctual and reliable, especially when it comes to feeding and walking schedules, which meant everything to me & more. The level of love and care he showed my animals was truly top notch. He followed every instruction perfectly and still found ways to go above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways. For the first time in a very long time, I was actually able to relax and disconnect from “pet mom mode” because I knew my animals were being cared for exactly how I would care for them, if not even better. I also loved the pictures Chris sent, you could genuinely see how much fun my pets were having with him, and somehow he even got my cat to come out and play, which says everything. If you’re thinking about booking with Chris, do it!!! You’ll thank me later & your pets will gain a new best friend 🐾”

Suzanne has taken care of Cupcake for us many times, and she has been wonderful every single time. She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and caring, and we always have complete peace of mind knowing Cupcake is in her hands. Cupcake knows her well and is always happy to see her, which means so much to us. We really appreciate all the updates, photos, and the consistent care she gives Cupcake. We feel very lucky to have someone we can trust so much to look after her. Highly recommend Suzanne! ❤️🐾

Christina goes above and beyond and is extremely available and responsive. She is also very patient with my very shy pet making an effort to reach out and comfort her while I am away. She is the best on all aspects and I am extremely happy with her capabilities and open, clear communication.

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.

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.
