“Stephanie did a remarkable job taking care of our shy kitty (that we rarely leave alone) and giving us complete peace of mind for our week away. I was concerned she wouldn’t see much of him, but he emerged quite often for pats, treats and interaction. We are so relieved and appreciative!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for years and have experience with both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and giving them lots of love and attention. I’ve also helped care for my family dog for 6 years and have experience caring for cats. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾💗 I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide your pets with plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I love to go for walks during my breaks and in the evenings so please let me know what time frames work best for you so that I may work around them! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and will follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. 🐾

About: I'm Steven, a former science teacher who turned a lifelong love of animals into full-time pet care. I've cared for my own dogs for years (John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, my senior Chihuahua) and have looked after friends' and neighbors' dogs, cats, and small pets for as long as I can remember. I'm Fear Free Certified and Red Cross Pet First Aid & CPR certified, and I'm fully insured and bonded. Teaching taught me patience, routine, and how to read what someone needs when they can't say it in words, which is exactly what good pet care takes. Every booking is handled personally by me, so you'll always know who's showing up at your door. I do this full-time, so your pet is a priority, not a side gig. For house sitting I keep your pet on their normal routine, same feeding times, walks, and bedtime, and I send photo and text updates throughout so you can relax while you're away. I follow feeding and medication instructions exactly (I give my own senior dog her meds on a strict schedule, so I take it seriously). Every booking starts with a free meet & greet so your pet and I are comfortable before anything is confirmed. Since I come to you, your pet stays in their own home, familiar surroundings, their own bed and yard, which keeps them calmest, especially seniors and anxious pets. I treat your home with respect: doors locked, mail brought in, plants watered if you'd like, everything left as I found it. I have two dogs of my own, John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, a senior Chihuahua, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior care.

About: I have always had a special love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them! I understand that pets are part of the family, and I believe they deserve the same love, attention, and care that they receive at home. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine passion for making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in giving each pet the individual attention they deserve. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring and trustworthy hands! I primarily work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the love, attention, and care they deserve! While I occasionally need to go into the office, I am generally home throughout the day and can easily incorporate feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I will always make sure they are safe, happy, and well taken care of. I’m happy to follow their usual routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions to make sure they feel right at home. I’ll treat your pets just like my own!

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, and I’ve had the joy of caring for just about every kind of pet you can imagine- from puppies and cats to reptiles and horses! I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel happy and cared for. I have experience with obedience and potty training for puppies (lots of patience, consistency, and praise are key!), and I’ve also worked with senior and special needs dogs who need a little extra TLC. Whether it’s sticking to medication schedules or adjusting to their pace, I make sure they always feel comfortable and supported. From playtime and walks to cuddles and clean-up, I bring plenty of energy, compassion, and attention to detail. No matter the species, I have love to go around! I currently work from home, which gives me the flexibility to fully integrate pet care into my daily and weekly schedule. This means I can adjust my routine to accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, or any special needs a pet may have. I’m able to provide consistent attention throughout the day, whether it’s short check-ins, extended play sessions, or administering medications on a strict schedule. Being home allows me to be present and attentive, creating a stable and reassuring environment for pets, and ensuring that their needs are always met without feeling rushed or overlooked. My goal is always to keep pets as comfortable and secure as possible while their owners are away. I do my best to maintain their normal routines—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or bedtime—so they feel consistency and familiarity even in their owner’s absence. I understand that being cared for by someone new can sometimes bring on a bit of anxiety, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring environment and giving them plenty of love and attention. This helps make the transition smooth, and ensures each pet feels safe, cared for, and right at home.

About: I have several years of experience caring for both pets and children. While working as a nanny for multiple families, I was also responsible for their dogs, making sure they were well-fed, exercised, and happy. This gave me hands-on experience with daily walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. At home, I am a proud cat owner, so I also understand the unique needs of cats and how to provide them with the right care and attention. I am patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s walking a dog, keeping a pet company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. have a very flexible schedule. Sunday Mondays and Tuesdays I am super available. Most mornings before 10 am I’m free and I sometimes work from home. My schedule is adjustable, I can often adapt to different needs during the week. The care I provide always depends on each pet parent’s instructions, since every animal has unique needs and routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them regular walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. Safety is always my first priority whether that means keeping doors secured, watching carefully on walks, or following special feeding instructions. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, so pet parents can feel fully at ease while they are away.

About: I've had three dogs in my life. One turned 17 this year. She's a happy old lady but does require some medications that I have learned to administer and I make sure they are given on time and properly. I enjoy taking my pups on long walks on nice days. Aside from my personal dogs I have spent time house and dog sitting for two other people with various different dog types with different personalities. For one of these people, she is also a dog sitter and I assisted her in one emergency situation where she needed needed me to stay the weekend and care for the five dogs in her care plus her two minor children. I work full time with set hours Monday - Friday. I'm free weekends. Early morning walks are easily done but afternoon walks are after 4. Depending on location, how close a location is to my job, I do have a 30min lunch where I can run out and give a quick walk. For my personal dog I tend to do a good long walk in the morning and another good long walk after 4 to make up for the long day. I've never worried about bathroom accidents with her. I love dogs. That's just a fact. I protect them anyway I can. I have gone out to look for neighborhood lost dogs, I have seen paw prints, but no shoe prints, in the snow during a snow storm and I went out searching for what I was sure was a lost escaped dog. Before leaving my house, I do a scan to make sure there's nothing dangerous out that my dog could access, hanging cords, small items, loose treats, etc... to make sure she's always safe.

About: In my early life, I had bunnies. I then got a bearded dragon when I was 15 and got my first dog in my senior year of high school. My first two pets were not traditional pets but taught me the responsibility of caring for one just the same. I have also worked with puppies and done obedience training with them. In addition, I have experience in adminstering medications I am very skilled with animals, and I've also been around cats and dogs my whole life as well as have 2 cats of my own. I'd be a trustworthy, reliable, and responsible sitter! I have experience with all sorts of dogs and cats, big and small, shy or outgoing, and even dogs or cats that have been rescued from tough backgrounds. Feel free to message me and I will try to get back as soon as possible! I work part time (usually Thursday-Sunday) as a bartender. I usually go in at around 7/8 pm, meaning I can make it for pet dinner time! During the day, I work from home so I have flexibility there. I would care for your pet in your home and follow any directions provided. I would keep the space the way it was when I arrrived and only access pet care areas.

About: Hi! I'm Jenn, an animal lover based offering attentive, reliable care for your dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand the patience, routines, and little details that keep pets happy and comfortable. I've cared for dogs of all sizes: feeding, walking, playtime, and plenty of affection and I'm comfortable administering medications, so pets with special needs are always welcome. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, drop-in visits while you're away, or a cozy overnight stay in my apartment, I'll treat them with love and patience. You'll get timely updates, photos, and real peace of mind while you're away. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Spanish. ¡Hablo español, así que también atiendo con gusto a familias hispanohablantes! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I'd love to meet you and your furry family member! I have a full time job during weekdays. With 3 on site office days and 2 remote days. I'm available weekdays after 5pm and weekends. In my home (boarding): I keep a clean, calm, secure apartment with no other resident pets, so your dog or cat has a quiet space and my full attention. I keep doors and windows secured, never leave a pet unattended in unfamiliar surroundings, and follow the feeding, walking, and medication schedule you provide. Leashes always go on before we step outside. In your home (drop-in visits & walks): I follow your instructions exactly — feeding, fresh water, litter or potty breaks, playtime, and any medications. I respect your home, lock up carefully, and leave everything as I found it. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and stick to safe, familiar routes. For every service: I send photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe, I stay reachable throughout the booking, and I always do a free meet-and-greet first. If anything ever seems off with your pet's health or behavior, I'll contact you right away and follow your emergency plan.

Alexandra did a wonderful job of taking care of our furry family of three cats (one elder, one 2-year-old, and one kitten) while we were away for two weeks. She sent us lots of great pictures every day, and when we got back the cats were more playful than before our trip, because of all of the playing they got with Alexandra.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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.
