“Alexa was very communicative, reliable, and so kind. She went above and beyond to take care of our cats needs. Wonderful photo updates and notes. Will certainly book again!”
“Been working with Yvonne for several months to watch our pups every week and they love her so much!! She takes amazing care of them, is flexible, follows directions. Truly a perfect fit for our dogs!”
About: I have hands-on experience raising and training puppies, including intelligent, high-energy breeds like German Shepherds and Australian Cattle Dogs. I’ve also cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I understand that every dog has unique needs, quirks, and routines. My approach focuses on patience, positive reinforcement, enrichment activities, and creating a comfortable, welcoming environment where dogs can feel safe, happy, and free to be themselves. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate individual routines, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and enrichment activities. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pet won’t have to spend long stretches alone and can enjoy a comfortable, relaxed environment with plenty of love and attention. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment where every dog feels right at home! I believe in allowing dogs to be themselves while respecting their individual personalities, boundaries, and routines. My home is shared with Harlow, my friendly and playful German Shepherd, who loves the company of other dogs that enjoy playing and respect personal space. I prioritize compatibility, thoughtful introductions, and supervised interactions to ensure everyone feels comfortable and secure. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m stopping by yours for a drop-in visit, I provide personalized care, enrichment activities, exercise, and plenty of affection. I carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, and provide photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Charity was amazing!! The doggos were very anxious about us being away/so were we. She let us know how they were doing, played ball with our lil guy and kept an eye on our ol ladies!! Will absolutely have her watch the dogs again and recommend her to anyone in the area!”
About: I’ve provided care for dogs and cats since I was 16 years old. Trusted by neighbors, friends & family to love their pets like my own! I work full time, but have a flexible work from home schedule. I can be available during the day for walks & potty breaks, and after 3 pm for house sitting. Knowing that pets are like family, I will care for your pets like they are one of my own. Also very attentive to detail & like to keep things tidy.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and bring both experience and genuine care to every pet I watch. I was raised on a farm surrounded by animals, and I’ve owned dogs for most of my life, including a small dog I cared for over 16 years. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, routines, and reinforcement of basic training. I work as a teacher Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. Because of this, I’m most available for pet care in the mornings, evenings, and overnight stays during the week. My schedule also allows for consistent availability on weekends, holidays, and school breaks, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routines and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship outside of my work hours.
“Heidi sent several photos for each drop-in, gave our dogs the opportunity to be out for the full hour each time, and was very communicative regarding how they ate. We greatly appreciate that she was reliable and honest!”
“Kylie provided phenomenal care for our cat Winnie and we will definitely reach out to her the next time we travel! We had no worries for Winnie’s care. We knew through Kyle’s many photos and the consistent communication with us that all was well.❤️”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for 15 years. I have also worked at a vet clinic on kennel stuff and have administrated medication for both cats and dogs. I am currently working part time, and I’m in the process of starting my own business at home so I will be home mostly all day. At home I have a fenced in backyard with lots of room to run. I have a car that I can take dogs to the park and walk as well as being able to get to clients houses. I take care of all animals as if they are my own.
About: I grew up with cats and now have a one-year-old Boxer, so I’m familiar with both feline personalities and energetic pups! My experience includes feeding, litter box care, walks, and plenty of playtime. I’ll give your pets attentive care and follow their routines to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I work night shifts three days a week, which gives me flexibility for walks and drop-in visits on my days off. I keep my availability updated and schedule visits around work and rest so your pets receive my full attention. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions closely. I’ll check that leashes and harnesses are secure, keep doors and gates closed, and make sure fresh water is available. I’ll respect your home, give your pet time to feel comfortable with me, and share photo updates so you know how they’re doing.
About: I’ve been around animals longer than I can remember. Previously a full time developmental puppy trainer and growing up with dogs, cats and farm animals, I now have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own. I have a passion for what I do and take great pride in giving amazing care to your pets. I have experience with all ages, all sizes and all breeds. Medication? No problem! I have experience with diabetic pets, therefore I am able to give injections or oral medications if needed! Previously a full time developmental puppy trainer, I have taken on a more independent role. I am available full time and I am very adventurous on my free time and love going hiking with my pup. I would love to allow your pet to join along in the fun! Whether you need a daily walk, weekly care, or going out of town, I can make sure your furry family members are loved and cared for. I make sure to build trust and a bond with the pets and safety is my biggest priority! When walking dogs, must be provided with leash and collar/harness or fenced in yard.
About: I have experience caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and providing plenty of love, attention, and companionship. I work full time at the moment but I am looking to do this full time so that I can go to dental assisting school. I myself have a fenced in yard, but I am comfortable with non yard homes, walking dogs, going to a dog park, groomers, providing medicine and cuddles.

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.
