“Ellie took such great care of Rudy and was so flexible with changing up his typical walks to a quick bathroom break and drop in due to the heatwave!”
“Kristina was amazing! I needed someone very last minute to take care of our puppy. She was so nice to come out for a meet & great early in the morning to be able to know everything she needed to know for taking care of her the very same afternoon. She connected really well with our pup. She was very dependable, responsive, sent pictures, took our puppy out & played with her. She was very attentive to everything. Highly recommend and will definitely think of her again!”
“Zoe took such great care of my cat Charlie!! He was dealing with some unexpected eye problems right before I left, and Zoe was super great in sending progress photos of his eye and answering some questions for my vet! will definitely be requesting Zoe again next time I go away :)”
“Chris sent me regular updates while I was away and was really accommodating with my dog’s dislike of rain during a storm. Friendly, considerate, and punctual. Would highly recommend!”
“Alexa is wonderful! She took great care of my cat while I was away and kept everything tidy and organized. She’s also really chill and easy to communicate with. Thanks Alexa!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and cat parent, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and love giving pets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and individualized care! I’m a consultant working hybrid in Center City so pet care fits easily into my routine! I’m available in early mornings and after 5 pm most every week day. I also have lots of flexibility on weekends ;) I provide care to maintain pets’ routines and comfort. I follow all instructions closely, prioritize safety, keep spaces clean, and will provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“Kelsey did a fantasic job with Winston, who loved her! He was a very happy Yorkie with all of the playing and running and lots of fun. It was a gift to know he was in such good hands while I was away. Will definitely be booking with her again, and recommend her to others!”
“We highly recommend Ellen for all your animal care needs! She was so responsive from the start - and did an excellent job looking after our older dog Ella while we were out of town. We absolutely hope to work with her again in the future if she is available!”
“We’re very grateful for charlotte for taking great care of out kitty when he needs some extra love these days in terms of vitamins, nose drops, etc. she’s amazing!”
“Sarah is an absolutely FABULOUS sitter for our two kitties! She is communicative, kind, flexible, and very thoughtful and thorough with her care. She is able to effectively administer oral medication to our sick kitty, and her care always puts us at peace knowing our pets are in such reliable, caring, and competent hands. We highly recommend Sarah and will definitely continue to use her as she’s available!”
“Caroline was a wonderful sitter for our dog and cat! She made sure they had everything they needed + went the extra mile to give plenty of snugs to our clingy pittie and get our shy orange guy to warm up to her. Prompt check-ins, communications, and updates — would highly recommend her and will be booking again in the future!”
“Jill was great staying with our two cats. Throughout our ten day trip she gave us regular updates (with lots of pictures) and followed our feeding instructions to a T. She even kept our plants watered and they thrived under her care. Not to mention the great quality time she spent with our sometimes shy cats- they seemed to be waiting for her to come back after we got home! I would highly recommend her for any future bookings.”
“Chastity helped with drop-in visits for our two cats for a week while my partner and I were away, and she did an AMAZING job! Both cats were fed, groomed, played with, and loved on in our absence. She provided tons of pictures, left our placed clean, and even took a package in for us. She went above and beyond for our cats, and we would book with her in a heartbeat in the future!”
“Yaniera is my go-to pet sitter. She’s communicative, loving to my kitties, and more organized and on top of things than I am! Thanks again for everything, Yaniera. Twigs and Aspen already miss you!”
“This was our first experience with Rover.com. I really like the way the app is organized and receiving notifications with updates. Megan was wonderful. She was thorough in caring for our two senior dogs. She updated us every time she dropped in and sent pictures. I will definitely continue booking with Megan and Rover.com.”
“Joe was great with the cats and immediately earned their trust. He went above and beyond cleaning up cat bowls and one throw up incident. Thank you, Joe!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rittenhouse
Kate was great! They made every step of the process easy and we were never worried about our cat during our trip. They gave a lot of details after each of their visits so we knew how Vanilla was doing, and a lot of pictures as well! Thank you so much for taking care of him!
This was my first time having someone else to walk my dog, so I was definitely a little nervous, especially since he can be a handful. I gave Cynthia a heads-up about his quirks beforehand, and she was absolutely great with him. She was so patient and understanding, and it made me feel so much better knowing he was in good hands.
Kathleen was so great with our pup. It was our first time working with her and she helped me out when I contacted her veryyy last minute. Her communication was great, she responded quickly, she’s so sweet and she was very flexible with dropping in. She sent updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely book with her again!!
Ariella was absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend her to anyone! She took excellent care of my cat while I was away and made sure all of her needs were met. Ariella was attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring. She also communicated consistently and provided updates and photos. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely trust Ariella to care for my cat again!
Fabulous as always. Emily provided on-time, thorough, consistent updates and plentiful photos! I felt so reassured knowing she was with my senior chihuahua. She even spent extra time with my dog. She is extremely conscientious and even took care of my dog while sick (which she didn’t have to, but she is that dedicated).

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.
