“Kairi is awesome. I needed someone very last minute and she responded immediately and was able to help me out. She takes the time to play with the dogs and really pays attention to them.”
“You’re so awesome! Thank you for the constant updates & making us feel secure and safe with our baby. I know he appreciated all of your love & we do too. Loved all of the pictures! Can’t wait to use you again!”
“Nate did a great job!!!! He was good with our dogs and they loved him. He used good judgment and took great care of them. He goes above and beyond. We will try and book Nate whenever we travel. It’s wonderful to leave town and know that your animals are well cared for. Nate does an outstanding job! Highly recommend.”
About: I LOVE DOGS! I lost my sweet jojo (rat terrier mix) 5 years ago and still it’s too soon for me to get another dog… taking care of yours dog(s) will help fill the hole in my heart left by her. I’m fit and active so walks/runs with the dog would be great! I work outdoors but have regular days off due to weather, I am usually off mid afternoon and can check in on pets before or after work. I have a fenced in back yard, multiple cats who have outdoor cat tents for them to enjoy outside safely. I also care for multiple fish tanks
“This was Cecilia and Kiya's first time meeting. I think it went pretty well. Kiya is a bit of a nervous cat and will stay away until she knows you better. She also has to have medicine every other day and sometimes is hard to catch. She likes having someone in the house all the time so me being gone stresses her. I think the second day Kiya actually played a little with Cecilia and wanted to be petted. Hopefully the next time I have to be gone things will be even better.”
“Oh my word I LOVE THIS APP! I have found it being a life saver in both finding me excellent humans to care for my fur baby like MINDY! She was quick to respond and was reliable resource for me I could trust on the spur of the moment!!! Boog did amazing for me when I got home from long day of riding. He was happy and acted like I wasn't gone. I highly recommend Mindy!!! Thank you”
“First time trying rover and was skeptical at first but it didn’t disappoint me. Vannessa is very reliable, friendly, and very communicative! Will definitely rebook again :)”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, cows, and horses. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for animals of different ages, sizes, and needs. Whether it’s keeping a puppy entertained, giving a senior pet extra patience and attention, or simply providing companionship, walks, playtime, and lots of love, I treat every pet like they’re my own. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I have with animals and the care I put into making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m able to work pet care into my daily routine and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and attention based on your pet’s individual needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and rest. I’m respectful of each client’s home and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are receiving plenty of attention and care while you’re away.
“Arianne was great with our boy Carbon. It was his first time spending a night without me or my husband present since we got him 3+ years ago, and she made sure that it wasn't a bad experience for him. We definitely went overboard when it came to providing information about him, but Arianne was able to handle it all without issue. 6/5.”
About: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a love for animals. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pup will receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I welcome well-behaved, house-trained dogs that are friendly with children and other dogs. My goal is to make your pet feel like part of the family while you’re away! * Fenced yard * Comfortable administering medications * Daily walks * Experience with large/giant breeds * Experience with anxious dogs As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am home throughout most of the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be cared for as part of our daily routine. I am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and enjoy time outside. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and crate use if needed. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Because I have young children in the home, I only accept dogs that are friendly with children and comfortable in a family environment. Meet-and-greets are welcome to help ensure a good fit for everyone.
“Amanda always does an amazing job of checking in on my cat and keeping an open line of communication. Amanda is very flexible and is always just a call or text away. As always, I would recommend Amanda!”
About: I'm an active gal who loves the companionship of a pooch while out and about. I love taking dogs on long walks or hikes through the woods or just down the city blocks for a quick leg stretch (and a bathroom stop). I'll be attentive to the needs of your dog, making sure they get plenty of activity, are well hydrated, and fed appropriately. While I don't have a dog of my own currently, I was a dog walker when I lived in New York City and I volunteered for two years with Border Paws Rescue in Rapid City caring for 5 - 10 pups for their pre-bedtime outings. I also have experience working with elder dogs and daily medicine administration. I'm comfortable working with and providing a safe environment for the most goofy and social as well as the most solo and independent pups. I'm happy to accommodate any special needs you and your pup may have. I'm prompt and reliable. I hope to meet you and your pup soon! I work full time, but have flexibility to do bathroom breaks over lunch for kiddos that need more frequent outings. I can take pups on walks in the morning or evening depending on their activity needs. I have a small fenced in yard that is available for outside hangs. I am patient and kind and love to meet the needs of each pup where they are at. I have volunteered in a rescue and am comfortable around dogs of different temperaments.
“Ronda always takes such great care of our kitty. Always appreciate her flexibility and Nola clearly loves the attention! Highly recommend Ronda for excellent cat sitting!”
“Mary is a great catsitter - she gave me daily updates on my cat, with photos, and is generally very responsive. She took time to get introduced to my cat, and my cat really took a liking to her from the first meeting (he is a bit wary of strangers so this is not common). Overall, a great experience.”
About: I have had dogs since I was a kid, but I manage a now 3 year old super hyper Hungarian Vizsla which is basically like handling a child! I love active dogs and I will do whatever to make your dog feel at home! It can be scary leaving your dog with a stranger but I will treat your dog like my own! I am willing to take care of a dog over 50 lbs but under 70 lbs as long as they are well behaved and not aggressive, this is for the safety of me, my dog, and your dog. Let me know if your dog is an escape artist or jumps fences! I ask all pets to be up to date on their basic vaccinations please! I work in the military full time but have no social life so I am available on the weekends as needed! I am also available Friday nights! I have my own yard. I can provide a potty break anytime and even help train an untrained dog if needed. My dog is super friendly and he is in need of friends as well!

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.
