“I highly recommend Jo to watch your animals! She is patient, considerate, and takes initiative with not only our babies, but also our home. Our Chiweenie takes time to get used to new people but snuggled up with Jo quickly. Jo communicates well and made me feel at ease knowing our dogs were under her care. I will not hesitate to reach out to Jo in the future!”
“Anke has been amazing with our Zoey, she’s is prompt follows the instructions we have to help us maintain our training with Zoey. Anke has been a great find for our Zoey and our family. The Arteaga’s”
“Riley was absolutely wonderful with Ivy while I was on holiday. She took such great care of her and treated her like family. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about Ivy, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I came home to a happy, well fed and watered, well-cared-for pup. I highly recommend Riley!”
About: I have two small dogs (maltipoo’s) of my own and have cared for my relatives/family friends furbabies often. I’m most experienced with smaller dogs however I’m willing to learn to care for any type of pet/species. I’m currently home full time and so my schedule is very flexible at the moment! I understand everyone has different concerns so I’m more than happy to accommodate as best I can. I live in a townhome so there’s a small backyard area. The area is safe with lots of families and dog owners in the neighborhood. I’m open to long walks, short walks, sniffari’s, drop ins, etc. Inside of my home, the garbage is enclosed within a pull out trash bin so dogs aren’t likely to get through. Cleaning and vacuuming happens regularly so there are minimal hairballs or choking hazards. The doggie gate is located along the stairs in case we need to keep them in a dedicated area but usually it’s left open for the doggies to roam free (as they are potty trained). Feeding is done in different areas so no resource guarding takes place. We have a large crate that the dogs treat at their personal home, they go in and out as they please. I like to keep their potty breaks on a schedule as well as feeding time and the air purifier runs constant.
“Jeanne was on time the two mornings to feed our feral cats which are three to four of them, though these cats she will not see since they hide until she leaves our front yard. Yet, we invited her into our front room when she came to our front door and Jeanne has a wonderful spirit who can talk about just about anything plus no shyness is there about her. Jeanne smiles, laughs and keeps eye contact while we all talked also. Lovely personality she has... I'm glad she lives close by us too. Thank you. Sincerely, Mrs. Bonnie Kellerby”
About: I have 2 dogs that are the absolute loves of my life. I’ve had dogs my whole life and always watch friends dogs and provide exceptional care! What can I say, I like dogs more than people!! I have a flexible work from home schedule and a large flat fenced yard. I love to take dogs for hikes and walks and provide food, pets and care as needed! I am very attuned and aware of dogs. If something seems off, I will take immediate action. I ensure food and treat schedules are adhered to and overall will just love and cuddle and pet and walk your dog! I’m super kind and believe dogs are the kindest souls on earth.
“Valentina did a great job checking in and taking care of our two cats! She was a good communicator, punctual, and did well with following the outlined instructions. Would book again!”
About: With experience spanning a wide spectrum of pets, I've had the privilege of working with numerous furry companions, including those with various health conditions. My patience and dedication shine through when caring for pets, and I'm known for my active approach, engaging in playful activities, walks, and exciting hikes. Additionally, I excel in communication, ensuring pet owners are well-informed and comfortable with the care provided. Working from home, I cherish the companionship and breaks that come with caring for animals. My flexible schedule grants me the freedom to seamlessly balance work and pet care. Whether it's a hike, a day at the beach, or a pool for active pets, I'm all about ensuring their happiness and physical activity. For indoor pets, my spacious layout is equipped with a variety of toys to keep them entertained, and I wholeheartedly welcome their favorite toys into our home. Growing up, I've been fortunate to share my life with multiple dogs, including a large one and two smaller furry companions. Extending from dogs, I'm also well versed with caretaking of cats! I have two of my own and have a wide range of volunteering feeding stray cats. This diverse experience has enriched my understanding of the varying needs that come with different pets, pet sizes, and personalities. With someone always at home, we maintain a diligent routine of taking our dogs out every hour or so, ensuring they have ample free time and monitoring their restroom needs. Our oldest dog, who is approaching 11 years old, requires an extra level of care and attention, and we are consistently attentive to her well-being. We've established a structured feeding schedule, carefully tailored to each pet's unique dietary requirements, guaranteeing they receive the nutrition that suits them best. ⭐️ Currently residing with my trusted cousin, a verified Rover sitter, we collaborate seamlessly to ensure your pet receives the best care. With two pairs of vigilant eyes, your pet's safety and well-being are our top priorities. ⭐️ Our home is not just a space; it's a loving environment where our pets thrive, and their well-being is our top priority. 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 With a decade of pet care expertise, I'm your trusted pet-sitting professional! Though I’m new to the platform, I can assure you I’ve been working with clients on my own accord for years— all satisfied with my care! What makes me stand out? Playtime: Fun activities, walks, hikes, adventures, and even a pool for the ones who love a dip! 🛝🐕 Photo Updates: Feel reassured with abundant photos of your pets and their wellbeing! Depending on your preference I am willing to send as many photos you'd like on the daily basis! 📸 Safety & Reliability: Safety is my upmost priority and will be sure to take diligent measures to ensure a safe environment at my home and outside my home! 🏡🔐 My Schedule: As someone who works from home, my schedule is extremely flexible! I understand the last minute trips some may experience. I'd love to help ease the stress of finding someone last minute for being ready to watch your babies. Overnight Policies (House Sitting): I maintain a stringent policy, treating your home as if it were my own. I keep things tidy, organized, and ensure everything is in its place upon my leave. If I take your furry baby out or they need to be cleaned, I am well experience with bathing all sizes! You will return to not only a clean home, but a clean pet as well! I understand the apprehension of leaving your pets with a stranger, so let's schedule a call for you to get to know me better and put your mind at ease! 😊
About: Hi, I’m Paulina! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, with hands-on pet care experience dating back to when I was in middle school. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, including guinea pigs, dwarf hamsters, mice, turtles, freshwater fish, a cornsnake, a bearded dragon, and of course, cats and dogs! I have four cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with the responsibility and attention to detail that comes with caring for multiple pets and maintaining their individual routines. I’ve fostered two abandoned puppies, cared for them while they were looking for their next chapter, and helped find them loving homes. I also recently fostered a feral queen and her litter of 4 kittens that were just two weeks old (so tiny and cute!). I had them for about 6 weeks before they went off to their loving homes (yes, I was a foster fail and adopted one!). These experiences really reinforced how much I value giving animals patience, stability, and plenty of affection while they’re in my care. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and understand that every pet is different. Some need lots of playtime and attention, while others are shy, independent, or need a little extra patience to feel comfortable around someone new. I’m happy to meet pets where they are and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m also very attentive to cleanliness, feeding schedules, fresh water, enrichment, and changes in behavior. I want you to feel confident that your pets aren’t just being checked on but they’re genuinely being cared for. I also completely understand the anxiety and concern when it comes to going on trips and leaving your fur babies at home, so I always send detailed updates with lots of pics. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your fur baby and give them the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. 🐾♥️ I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to build pet care into my day. I’m able to provide consistent visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship almost any time of the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I carefully follow instructions, keep doors and gates secure, make sure pets have access to fresh water, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and will leave things clean and exactly as I found them. Before caring for your pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, feeding instructions, medications if applicable, and any quirks or safety concerns. I believe clear communication and attention to detail are key to giving both pets and their people peace of mind.
“Etta was great with my two cats. She had them both eating out of her hand. She was dependable, kept everything tidy and even took my trash cans out and brought them back in. What I appreciated most were the pictures and updates she gave me every day. I will definitely book with her again!”
“I needed someone to come in the mornings to feed my cats. Tyler was available after my original Rover booking canceled on me at the last minute. He checked in with me before leaving each day to make sure that I didn't need anything else. I appreciated the status updates and follow-up questions to be as helpful as he could.”
About: I used to volunteer at the San Jose Animal Center and the Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley I worked at an animal hospital for a year as a veterinary assistant I trained my one-year-old kitten to wait, sit, shake, turn around, and high-five, as well as my friend's puppy. I just graduated from college and moved back home during my gap year before I start veterinary school. I have time every day to pet sit. I have a large backyard that dogs can play in and an area for a crate if needed. I will make sure that your pet feels safe and loved at either my house or yours. I will follow the instructions left for me very carefully. Your pet will get lots of snuggles and playtime. I plan to give them the best care possible while respecting their boundaries.
“Donna was a blessing to our dog and our family. She is an excellent communicator and took wonderful care of our dog for one day. We had peace of mind knowing our prescious dog was in such caring hands while we were away.”
About: I love dogs and dogs love me. I have lived with many dogs while care for them as a puppy and house trained them. I love to go on walks, and house sit these love bugs. It brings me joy to support and be in service to families. I Owned a cat for 16 years and then as an adult I have cat sit before. Cats often take time and adjustment to a new energy. So I allow the cat to come to me. I am an online energy healer/life coach and so I work daily on a computer and can be flexible with routine. I would consult and agree to the time needed daily or weekly with the pet care I like to ask for a printed out routine or schedule. Emergency contacts and possible things to do around the house so when the owner comes home they can relax and have everything still flowing in the house.

We’ve had Dana take care of our cat multiple times, and she has always been great! She communicates regularly, and I appreciate that she checks in about our preferences. We can tell that our cat feels relaxed around Dana as well, which is always a great comfort. Thanks, Dana!
Kristin is an absolute angel 😇. Both of our girls (dogs) took to her immediately, and they were happy and calm when we returned home. Kristin takes her role and responsibilities seriously, and meticulously follows all requests. My husband and I were able to fully enjoy our time away, and our girls were able to stay home and enjoy the love and care they received from Kristin. Before Kristin, we had only left them with family. Thanks 🙏 so much Kristin. We will definitely be booking you again. ❤️
Our cat loves Teresa at the first sight! 😄 Teresa took great care of him and gave him lots of attention and pampering. Teresa also sent generous photos with food and litter box updates to let us know our cat has been doing well, and she took great photos - our cat looked like a star! 🥰
Yun-an (Elva) is really the best sitter we know and is our savior! We had originally planned to have her drop by only a few times when we were away but the night before our trip (literally while I was packing), one of our cats had an emergency. The doctor subscribed him medication to be taken twice a day. I was ready to cancel the trip if I couldn’t find someone to take care of him. Luckily, not only did Elva agree last minute to come two times a day, but she really went above and beyond the expectations during her visits. She is extremely detailed oriented and kept me updated about everything. Our cat is really but Elva did a great job of making him feel comfortable and making sure that he ate before giving him the medicine. Her rover cards had dozens of photos and long descriptions of what each of my fur babies did during her visits. She is such a patient and loving care taker, and I can tell both of my cats trust her. Having Elva come by made me feel at ease during my trip, because I know there is someone who would take very good care of my cats. I feel so, so lucky to have found her. Highly highly recommended!
Highly recommend Holly. Holly made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. She was incredibly professional, respectful, and communicated clearly from start to finish. Holly took great care of my pup, followed all instructions perfectly, and kept me well-updated. I felt completely confident leaving my pet in her hands and will absolutely book with her again!
Olivia was wonderful! My cats liked her immediately and she was very sweet with them. I appreciated the photos and videos of playtime while I was gone and the updates that they had taken their medication with no problem. She was very prompt with every time frame she gave me. Would definitely book again!
Adrienne was absolutely wonderful with our sweet Rocky! He took to her right away, and it was clear from the start that he was comfortable and happy in her care. She was reliable, conscientious, and attentive, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking Adrienne again. Highly recommend!
Jeanne was on time the two mornings to feed our feral cats which are three to four of them, though these cats she will not see since they hide until she leaves our front yard. Yet, we invited her into our front room when she came to our front door and Jeanne has a wonderful spirit who can talk about just about anything plus no shyness is there about her. Jeanne smiles, laughs and keeps eye contact while we all talked also. Lovely personality she has... I'm glad she lives close by us too. Thank you. Sincerely, Mrs. Bonnie Kellerby

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.
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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
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.
