“We had such a great experience with Laila! She is incredibly kind, attentive, trustworthy and communicative and did a great job tending to our yellow lab throughout the weekend. We enjoyed the frequent updates and pictures and had peace of mind knowing our lab was treated like family while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laila again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets!”
“Caitlin was amazing to our 2 fur babies while we were gone! I loved that every time she came to our home, she made sure our babies were loved on and sent us an update with photos, along with a synopsis of how the visit went. I will definitely be using her again! 😎”
About: I have 3 dogs and one cat of my own! I’ve had two of the dogs since they were puppies, and my cat since he was a kitten. I’ve also pet sit for my neighbors many times! My three dogs are all chihuahuas, but i’ve had experience with bigger dogs too. I am currently working part time, but I’m planning on going full time with pet sitting! Once summer is over I will be going to school but early in the morning, from around 8 to 12. So I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets ! I will not bring your pets to my own home, because my dogs are not very friendly to other pets. I will be able to go to your home and take care of your pet(s) there!
About: Hello! Please just call me Xami (ch-ah-mee) I've always had a passion for animals. I only started taking care of larger animals such as dogs and cats when I was 9. Before then, I took care of a verity of insects, rodents, and birds. These weren't easy tasks for someone so young and yet I managed to commit into taking care of these precious creatures. I was the first person friends and neighbors asked to take care of their beloved bestfriends. When I turned 14, my parents brought home a kitten and I catered my routine to her. The same year, I managed to gain the trust of a stray after months of steady work and he became an indoor cat after we got his vaccines. I made sure our ex-stray got as much enrichment as the outside provided him. I have experience in training as later down we were given an accidental GSD puppy. I spent months properly training our puppy and even made it through puppy blues! I'm currently working part time from 6am - 12 pm. There may be some Thursdays where I am needed to work in the afternoon. My college classes are all online and won't interfere unless it's an exam. I care for others pets the way I care for my own - I make sure each of my pets have a proper schedule and diet catered to their needs. - Safety in areas of the house that is needed to be inaccessible - Providing a relaxing environment - Lots of love given
“Jynna was great with our pups! She provided lots of pictures and was always on time! We had such peace of mind that she was there to check in with our pups while we went out of town last minute. Definitely would recommend her and would book her to take care of our pups again!”
“Alexis was wonderful with my dog! She was caring, attentive, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I got home. I really appreciate how responsible and loving Alexis was. I would definitely recommend her and will gladly book with her again!”
About: I have taken care of animals from a young age, we have always had family pets from dogs to cats, lizards, fish, rescues etc. and my grandparents had farm animals like horses pigs, chickens and goats that I was around from a young age also. I have always cared for our family pets as well as neighbors, friends, and family throughout the years. I typically house sit when watching the animals also and can take care of things like collecting mail and packages, etc. I currently work part time form home so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to care for animals. I also enjoy going outside so don't mind taking dogs on walks etc. I have a 1 acre fenced in backyard with lots of grass and trees for animals to play. I also have an outdoor enclosed fence about 8x10 that I can use to separate dogs if needed. And I have about a 5x8 fully enclosed outdoor catio as well. I have plenty of space inside the home to let animals rest as well as a garage if it is too hot during the day.
“Nidia was amazing with all the accommodations for my cat while i was on a 4 day out-of-state trip. The communication was very responsive and Nidia was flexible in accommodating last minute changes. Will certainly go with her for peace of mind!”
About: I have taken care of all sizes of animals ever since I was 14 years old, from horses to rabbits. Currently I have four cats, two dogs, one horse, one donkey, and four goats. Some of them have three legs and some can’t see but I have cared for them all with as much love as I can. Difficult animals are something I have dealt with as well, I understand that animals have their own boundaries that need to be respected. Right now I am a nursing student at UTA, my classes start on January 13, and when that happens, I will not be able to work on Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s and Thursday’s. I might be able to make it work if the scheduled time is much earlier or much later in the day. I have a fenced yard, and there are several gates in my house so I can separate dogs from each other if needed. I also have an area the cats can stay in if the certain pet does not like cats. I live on a 7 acre plot of land, which will give any dog enough run time to have fun and also sleep really hard by the end of the day
“Amelia was absolutely wonderful and went out of her way to take care of my sweet baby. Cranberry got sick before I had to leave out of town and Amelia offered to come twice per day to make sure she got her medication on time . I am well pleased with the service I received and highly recommend Amelia for ALL your pet care needs!”
About: Hi, my name is Darian! I have three dogs of my own, two of them in their senior stage of life. I have been a dog sitter for almost ten years now, taking care of dogs around my community and family friends.

I would love to take your pups on walks around your neighborhood as well as doggy parks and other places with your permission of course! I am up for staying in your home (if you are on vacation) or dropping in every couple of hours when you need me to. Thank you for the opportunity to care for your sweet pups!

“Lauren was absolutely wonderful with Kann! Her communication was top-notch — she kept me updated throughout the entire visit and sent so many great photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was thorough and attentive, making sure Kann was fed, his litter box was cleaned, and he had plenty of playtime. It was clear she genuinely cared about his comfort and wellbeing. Kann warmed up to her right away, and I could tell he was in great hands. I would highly recommend Lauren to any pet owner and will definitely be booking with.”
About: My Pet Care Experience 🐾 Animals have always been a big part of my life. I was raised around smaller dogs, so that’s what I grew up knowing first. As I got older, I started being around bigger breeds too, and over time I got just as comfortable with them. I’ve also grown up around horses, fish, rabbits, and different kinds of animals, so being around animals has always felt natural to me. A lot of what I know about dogs comes from actually growing up with them—seeing their different personalities, learning their routines, understanding when they want attention and when they need their space, and learning how much they rely on the people taking care of them. I’ve gotten to experience the fun parts of raising animals, but I’ve also experienced what it’s like to lose one. Going through that made me realize even more how much these animals become a part of your life. Because of that, when I take care of someone’s pet, I don’t look at them as just another dog I’m watching. I think about how I would want my own pets to be treated if I wasn’t there. I want them to feel comfortable with me, keep their normal routine, and have someone around who genuinely enjoys being with them. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to plan my schedule around my clients’ needs and make sure I have enough time to provide each pet with consistent, attentive care. I’m dependable, organized, and flexible with scheduling. I prioritize keeping every pet safe, comfortable, and cared for. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions, respect their space, and keep their pets’ routines consistent. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs while providing a calm, loving environment.
About: I've been a sitter throughout a majority of my life and have been exposed to all sorts of pets. Dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, even frogs! I spent a lot of my teenage years looking after my neighbors pets and my own. My parents were strict that if we were to have pets they were everyone's responsibility! I have definitely taken on that mentality throughout life, as every pet is precious and worth the love and effort. I'd love to be able to look after your fur-baby if given the opportunity—feel free to reach out! I'm currently starting my own art business, so my schedule is very open, I can work around whatever time you need me there for your pet! Whatever is your routine for your pet and household rules are, I will do everything in my power to uphold it! If you want walks, outdoor time, play time I am happy to accommodate.
“Jada did absolutely amazing watching out puppers while out of town. Received lovely check in photos and feedback regarding the dogs. She gave such tender love and care to them and our home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone you can trust while your away.”

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.

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 .
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.
