“Lanette has been amazing with our pups! We will use her every chance we can. She shows them love and plays with them. She makes sure they have fresh water. It’s nice being able to have someone care for your pets as they are their own. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Really nice with excellent initiative. She wanted to let me know all the things she was capable of and that made for an informative conversation on our initial meet-up. Very kind and prompt. Always keep me informed and I felt save leaving my dogs with her. Would use again.”
“Bethany took care of our animal family. She checked in each visit with photos and updates on how everyone was doing. We were a bit nervous about leaving our one dog who had separation anxiety issues. But she managed everyone well.”
“I can’t recommend Alicianna enough! She took amazing care of my two dogs during their drop in visits while I was at work, and knowing they were being looked after gave me so much peace of mind. She was punctual, reliable, and kept me updated after every visit with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated since I couldn’t check on my dogs myself. It was obvious they genuinely cared about them and spent quality time making sure they had everything they needed—not just letting them out, but giving them attention and making them feel comfortable. My dogs looked happy and relaxed in every update, and it was clear they were in great hands. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, were respectful of my home, and made the entire experience completely stress free. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and trustworthy to care for your pets, I wholeheartedly recommend Alicianna. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”

She was very quick to respond and willing to help out with whatever she could to take extra care of my little Roger! I thoroughly trust her to go above and beyond for my pup everytime!”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Jacob! 🌟 He was reliable, communicative, and genuinely cared for my pet like they were his own. I had total peace of mind knowing everything was handled with so much attention and kindness. I would 100% trust Jacob again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch care. Thanks again, Jacob! 🐾💛”
“Chloe was so beyond amazing with our sweet pup. We absolutely loved that she offered to meet him/us prior to the visit to make sure it was a good fit! She was extremely communicative throughout the process and visits, sending us many photos of him enjoying their visit/playing/outdoors! She also gave us updates on his health status, as he’d been dealing with some minor issues the week before. We truly can’t recommend her enough! It was a wonderful first experience booking through Rover and we will surely book with her again soon. Thank you, Chloe!”

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 .

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.
