About: I’ve had about 13 dogs of different breeds in my lifetime and two cats. Every animal that I’ve had in my life still carry on in my heart. I love and appreciate animals for their never ending love for us humans. Rest assured that I was responsible for all of my pets and made sure to attend to their needs in a safe manner, so my experience can be valuable when it comes to caring for other pets. I’m able to work any day of the week as long as it’s 8-3pm. I’m just not available around 4-6, but I am able to care for them in my home if necessary. We have a screen door and our parking lot is gated, so there is no way for them to get through. There is also a park nearby that is great for walking.
About: I’ve had a guinea pig, a bunny, and 2 dogs. I’ve always been an animal person. And I help my friends out by taking care of there pets. It depends on the my work day sense I do freelance contracting for production work. But I would have to what day you would want to book me for and times. It depends on how friendly the animal is and how many days I am pet sitting for. But I will feed, bathe, play and be around to watch what they do.
“Loren did a great job with my dogs. When I got home they were well taken care of, the space where they stayed was orderly and clean, and they were relaxed. I received photos and updates on a daily basis, and that was very comforting to me. Loren also went above and beyond when I locked myself out of my condo, and called her to get the key to open it. Luckily she was available, and in 15 minutes she was at my complex to help me out. Thanks Loren for being so available!”
“Trinity took in our request for drop in visits for our 2 dogs while we were away for the Memorial weekend. She did exceptionally well and did things the same way we do with our dogs with their daily routine. Trinity gave us the peace of mind while we were on our trip and kept us updated on how our dogs were doing. She even went the extra step to grab something for us at the store to treat our dog. Highly Recommend using her services and would definitely be using Trinity’s services again. Thank You Trinity.”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. I'm reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like family. I'm comfortable with crate training, and special routines—and I always keep you updated with photos and messages! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pup the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’m home and available to meet their needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm environment and stick to their routine. I’m always attentive, secure with gates and leashes, and keep you updated with regular check-ins.
About: I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and making them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I'm active, patient, and love going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I'll care for your dog the same way I would my own. Pet care is already part of my everyday life because of my own dog, Taco. He's super active, so walks and park trips are already part of my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, so dog walking and drop in visits fit naturally into my schedule. I'm available weekday afternoons and anytime on weekends. I always want dogs to feel safe and comfortable around me. On walks, I pay attention to their pace, surroundings, and anything that could stress them out. In a client's home, I follow their routine and make sure their dog feels relaxed and cared for. I treat my dog like they're my own ❤️
“Victoria was amazing with our cat! She was prompt and came at the same time everyday to feed and play with our girl. I got tons of videos/photos, along with very detailed notes about how she was and how the visits went. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and encourage you to reach out to her for your fur babies! Thank you so so much again for everything!”
“Audrey was super attentive. So easy to communicate with her and very punctual. She took care of my two dogs with care and love. Would have her take care of my boys anytime! Highly recommend :)”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve also had my own cat for 12 years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Over the years, I’ve also helped friends care for their dogs and puppies, including feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m responsible, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care, so I’ll treat them with the same patience, love, and care that I give my own. 🐾 I’m available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. Weekday visits are best scheduled after 3 PM. I also have every other Friday off, which gives me additional availability for daytime visits on those Fridays. I’m happy to coordinate times that work best for you and your pet! I’ll always treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I carefully follow feeding, medication, litter, walking, and household instructions and make sure doors, gates, and entry points are secure. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe and well cared for while you’re away.
“Remy is amazing and exceptional. She went above and beyond to take care after my cats. She is truly a gem. We had the best experience with her and the amazing pictures that she took of our cats was just the cherry on top. We had an unexpected emergency situation with my cats while we were away on a trip and Remy went above and beyond to help us with the crisis and extended her help, availability and care like no other. If you really want your pets to feel loved and cared for Remy is definitely the one. Thank you Remy for all that you did for our cats. We are forever grateful ❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. I also have a 12 year old malti-poo of my own that hangs out with me, and take on walks everyday. I’m currently working Mon-Thurs so I have a flexible schedule on the weekends, and lots of time to play with your pups, plus a malti-poodle of my own to play with your fur friend. I have a fenced back and one 20lb dog to help keep your dog company. I can also crate your pup if you need me to.
About: Hi my name is Ash! I currently don’t have a job so I’m available for all services at any time. I’ve been around different types of dogs my entire life. I love to keep dogs entertained and happy by playing with them, walking with them, letting them run around the house, feeding them yummy treats and food, and give lots of cuddles! I’m very good at keeping an eye on dogs when they are wearing a cone or if they are sick. I have experience on giving antibiotics to dogs. I usually let dogs out to go pee every 2-3 hours. I love all animals and am so excited to take care of your dog! I have an apartment but I live close to plenty of dog parks! My schedule is open I don’t work at a physical place right now so I have more than enough time to care for my dogs and yours! I have a nice spacious apartment your dog can run around in and I will always keep an eye on what they are doing. I always make sure there isn’t anything they could get into that would hurt them. Any mess that is made will also always be cleaned up.
“I’m so happy we stumbled upon Narges profile. She was super communicative from the start. She happily hopped on a facetime with us so we could be crazy cat ladies and explain the idiosyncrasies of feeding our cats. Every text exchange felt like it was with a friend …She sent pictures of our cats to us which made us so happy on vacation. 10/10 recommend Narges! :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverview
Frida was punctual, attentive, and followed all of my instructions. She made sure my dog ate his food, which is especially important since he is currently on incontinence medication. Ernie and Louis were so happy to have her, and they’re already looking forward to the next time she comes over.
Natasha was very good with my Rottweiler. Make sure he ate his food played with him changed his water. Gibson really loved her. I could tell. She always came early. She’s very professional. I would recommend Natasha to anyone. We look forward to working with her again.
Mariela is an amazing pet sitter! She is reliable, punctual, and will not hesitate to go above and beyond. I appreciate the care she gives my dogs anytime we are out of town. It is hard to leave the pups behind when traveling but having someone dependable like Mariela helps make it a little easier.
Rubie did a wonderful job taking care of my boys while I was away. She made sure they were fed every day, kept the litter box clean, and spent time playing with them so they stayed happy. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. I will absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Ainsley provided outstanding communication and was kind and friendly with our dogs during our meet and greet. Extremely pleased with her drop in services to feed and play with our dogs. She completed all the items on the list I provided for our dog’s care and comfort.
Victoria was amazing with our cat! She was prompt and came at the same time everyday to feed and play with our girl. I got tons of videos/photos, along with very detailed notes about how she was and how the visits went. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and encourage you to reach out to her for your fur babies! Thank you so so much again for everything!
Shelby and Dalton were amazing! They did an initial meet and great with our cat prior to the scheduled drop in visits. They were thorough during the visits and were very good sports when our cat was being feisty. They even brought out/in our trash bins when asked. Would definitely recommend.
Taylor and Andrew did a great job taking care of my dog. I had to adjust the visit times - (needed extra visit mid day) and they were very flexible and understanding. Everything went smoothly, and I really appreciated how easy they were to work with. Thank you! Doug
Kathy Made Me And My Dog Feel Very Comfortable In Her Care While I was Out Of Town… I know As Dog Lovers We Often Classify Them As Our Kids And With That Being Said Finding Kathy to be available when I did was a Great Experience For The For Me And My Dog… She Takes Great Pictures To Show Her Progress Throughout The Check Ins And Always Kept Me Up To Date On Anything That May Have Happened And Im Grateful…. Thanks Kathy
Nicole was very nice and helpful. Suki loved her! When I got home there was old wet food mixed with dry food in her bowl... that's why she didn't eat it. The canned food was to be mixed with the fresh food in the fridge. I know we discussed it, but I should have written it down.

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 .
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.
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 .
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.
