“Jennifer was an absolute Godsend!! Our baby girl Shannon was given the best care by Jennifer and her family. Shannon was treated like a queen. Couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Jennifer. She kept us posted daily on how Shannon was doing and sent us daily photos. Will definitely be using Jennifer exclusively for all our pet sitting needs. We definitely were highly pleased with the love and care she offered our baby girl. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of Shannon!!”
“Brittany watched our pups for over a week and we have zero complaints! One of our dogs has pretty severe anxiety and Brittany went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, spent extra time with him, and kept consistent communication with us throughout our trip. Would 100% recommend Brittany to watch anyone’s fur babies!”
About: I’ve grown up on a farm since I was 6. I love animals and have always been able to deal with different types. Love to do cuddles with my fur babies. I can do weekly or daily home visits. Be willing to work stuff out and figure out a schedule. Don’t mind doing what we need to do. I always watch the fur baby’s while they are out side I always give treats and if they are hard headed I always like a challenge usually treats and cuddles does the trick. I always text after each visit with updates and always send pictures if u wanna see ur fur baby’s.
“Kerry was amazing as always! I asked her very last minute for a same day drop in and she was able to help me out! She always sends lots of pictures and is great with my crazy doggos!❤️”
About: I’m comfortable caring for birds, rodents, cats, and dogs of all sizes! I’m also able to tend to reptiles though my experience there is limited. I am primarily a divemaster and personal shopper. My hours at the dive shop and on the boat vary but with enough notice, I can usually arrange my schedule to suit your pets’ needs 😁 I think it’s least disruptive to animals when they can remain in a familiar environment. Therefore, I prefer to handle pet care from the client’s home. I am available for quick visits or longer overnight stays and I am happy to provide several references upon request.
About: Growing up my parents always had atleast 4 dogs and we loved them so deeply and took such good care of them that they all became a member of our family and were treated like they were one of us … I was always taking care of new puppies and neighbors pets when they went out of town and since I can’t convince my husband to let me get another dog I decided the next best thing would be to sit for other peoples animals!! I currently work a part time job . I wake up around 5 and let the dogs out to go potty then bring them in and give them time to eat and drink . They get walked one more time before I head out to work and then go into the kennel if they aren’t trained . As soon as I get home they go outside to go potty and I check their food and water to make sure they have plenty . For the rest of the evening they get walked a few more times and taken to the dog park atleast once before bed. I have a kennel for one extra large dog and I walk them through my neighborhood to the dog park that is exclusive for the residents there. There is not usually anyone there and if there happens to be a dog there that doesn’t seem the friendliest there is a smaller fenced off area for the babies or dogs that aren’t as friendly. I have an extra large tub incase baths are needed and a large dog bed for them to get cozy in after a long day!
About: Hi there! I’m Charlie — the heart behind Delta Dog Co., here in Gulf Breeze, Florida. Dogs have been one of my greatest passions for as long as I can remember, and caring for them isn’t just a job for me — it’s a calling. I’ve worked in both kennel and veterinary environments, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of canine behavior, training, and communication — especially with working, sporting, and gun dog breeds. I’m trained in canine CPR, experienced in medication administration, and comfortable handling everything from high-energy pups to senior dogs needing gentle care. Whether it’s playtime, structure, or comfort, I tailor each dog’s experience to their unique personality and needs. I currently operate Delta Dog Co. and work as a delivery driver on the side, so I have a flexible schedule built around pet care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, drop-ins, and training throughout the week. Dogs in my care are never left unattended for more than 2-4 hours. Your dog will always have reliable, consistent care and a routine that keeps them happy, safe, and comfortable. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, clean, and relaxed home environment where every dog is treated like family. I have experience working in kennel and veterinary settings, so I know how to handle dogs of all temperaments and ensure their wellbeing at all times. Dogs in my care are always supervised during playtime and outdoor activities, and they’re never left unattended for long periods. I’m trained in canine CPR and skilled at reading body language, managing group dynamics, and preventing stress or conflict before it happens. Whether your dog is here for boarding, daycare, or training, they’ll enjoy a safe, structured, and loving environment that feels like a second home.
About: I have been around dogs since I was 3 years old. I have always had family dogs and recently lost my German Shepherd. I have pet sat for friends and family since I was in middle school. I work from home so I will be able to drop in multiple times throughout the day. I currently do not have kids so am very flexible with my time. I can stay overnight in your house with your animals and drop in multiple times a day. I have a lot of experience with strong dogs and enjoy taking dogs on adventures or just walks around the neighborhood.
About: I have 5 years of experience working in the veterinary field, so I’m comfortable providing medications and administering shots as needed. I’m also able to recognize potential medical concerns or changes in your pet’s condition and know when something may need further attention.Beyond medical care, I genuinely love spending time with animals! I enjoy playing with pets, giving them plenty of attention, and I’m happy to prepare their food according to their specific needs or routines. Most importantly, I will care for your pet or pets as if they were my own—with patience, love, and plenty of attention to their individual needs. My schedule is completely open right now. Genuinely, any time of day works for me, so feel free to pick whatever time is most convenient for you! I’m able to do any at-home visits! I do have a double-fenced-in yard and two very friendly dogs. However, if anything were to take place at my home, my dogs can easily stay completely separated from your pet. I’m happy to accommodate whatever makes you and your pet most comfortable!
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had pets of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also have professional experience working in an animal hospital, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s normal routine, and I’ll always communicate in advance about my availability. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine will always be my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, potty breaks, and any special routines they’re used to. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. I’ll treat your space with respect, keep doors and gates securely closed, maintain a clean environment, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable at all times. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾

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.
