About: Dogs are a big part of our daily life.

They’ll get consistent attention, outdoor time, and a structured but relaxed environment. We also have a fenced-in yard, which allows for safe play and movement throughout the day. Our home is set up to be dog-friendly, and I treat every dog like part of the family—while still respecting their routine so they feel secure.

About: Have Loved Dogs All My Life and Now am Very Lucky to Have the ability to help on weekends when you are away, overnight stays are perfect. This way FURBABIES stay in their environment and feel happy! I myself, an animal companion, to Sadie, Jake and Hemi, all at Rainbow Bridge. I will be come a playmate for your friend whether it be a couple hours after 6pm weeknights, or a few hours on the weekend or all weekend if needed!! I am doing this as I love dogs and am not able to keep an animal companion at my residence. I work in an office, retail...during the day - That is to make a living and hopefully, in the future be self employed. everyone always asks what do you want to do with your life I would love to work with dogs how can that be a bad day?!!! I work full-time retail so if close enough, I could do potti breaks during my lunch hours. Overnights are what I do prefer for any of your fur, feather, reptilian kids and all others in between. I follow instructions that the client gives me, and always ask for notes regarding feeding, exercise and anything else that the client thinks is important to make your furbaby have a great time while the family is away. I also will text if something comes up that wasn't on the instructions!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child, from the 7 that I grew up with to all of my friends’ and family’s dogs as well! I have dealt with dogs of all sizes and attitudes, and truly love them all. I’m currently working part time, so I have lots of time to care for & give attention to your pups! I have 4 dogs at home that I have to feed and let out, but it’s easy to balance out with other tasks/jobs. I care for dogs based on individual preferences. I am comfortable with crating dogs, leaving them out, spending time with them, etc. It all depends on your dogs needs and your personal preferences!
“Regan was great with my kitties! She was very attentive to the directions I provided. She spent time with them during her stop in visits and made sure they got treats and catio time as well as sent pictures! This was my first time using Rover and I well definitely not hesitate to use it again!”
“Marissa was awesome!! She came to the house to take care of our 4 cats while we were away for a week. She came by consistently and spent 30 minutes with them each time. She sent pictures and wrote lovely notes updating us on them everyday. She is very nice, considerate and knowledgable. We definitely recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have over 10 years pet care experience, 7 of which I have been specifically focusing on dog training. Understanding the minds of dogs and how they think requires a degree of skill and patience, along with consistent application of training techniques. This knowledge of how dogs thinks, interact, and behave helps in every aspect of dog care in itself. It makes every individual pet special because dogs have their own unique personalities, and being able to tap into that and create a bond is different from dog to dog. This is one of the best parts of taking care of people’s pets! Any of your specific needs and accommodations will be met and/or exceeded when in my care, guaranteed! I am a journeyman lineman and I work 4 days a week. Aside from that I own a dog training business where I train dogs on weekends. My wife Teal is home every day for any assistance in care for your dogs and we are both committed to giving the most comfortable and enjoyable stay for your dogs! Trusting someone with these members of our family can be stressful and hard to do at times. I understand better than anyone that giving my pets up to someone can be daunting task. We need to trust our pets are given the same care they get at home and are loved like one of our own. In this household we have 2 cats and 2 dogs. There is nothing more important than treating your dog equally as good as one of our own. Between my wife and myself the pets we care for will receive our undivided attention and compassion. We incorporate tons of engagement and interactive play time. We are sure to see that these pets aren’t just alone and disregarded. My wife and myself strive to have an environment where animals can have a stress free and fun loving home to reside in till their owners make it back to them. Rest assured that I have been caring for dogs for many years, and training dogs for close to 7 now. You will not find a more loving and compassionate place for your dog than right here!
About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and I've had my first (adult life) dog for three and a half year. Wila Rose is an Australian Cattle Dog mix. About a year and a half ago we added another rescue, Buckley Quinn. He is a smart but goofy boy. They both go backpacking with us and we do a lot of hiking on our local public land areas. We enjoy playing around in our yard with our limited dog agility set and learning new tricks. We occasionally go swimming but love jumping and exploring new water areas and hiking trails. Wila and Buckley are a huge part of my life. We enjoy hiking, being outdoor, and traveling as much as possible. We do quite a but of training included but not limited to: agility, scent training, shed training, and just some fun party tricks. I am new to Rover so please feel free to reach out with any questions. I have an acre of land (not fenced in). We love to go on walks and sniffaris at our local parks. Buckley loved to play with other dogs and Wila is more of a people dog. They even loves to go backpacking and hiking which often include 10+ miles a day.
“Cheryl and Josh provided drop in service for our 2 cats. They did an excellent job making sure there was food and water, and cleaning liter boxes. Most importantly they had play time with our cats and sent cute pictures and updates. I highly recommend them and will use them again when we are out of town.”
About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life. I have most experience with medium large to giant breeds. I currently have a lab (8 years old) and a Newfoundland mix puppy (1 year). I have foster dogs in the past, and watched others dogs for an extended period of time and I love all types of breeds. But Big dogs have my heart. Your dogs will be pampered and can be on the couch, bed, or dog bed. We have an enclosed deck perfect for sun bathing pooches or those who love to sit in the cold (like my Newfoundland). Potty breaks will be leashed to ensure the safety of your beloved dog. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible on how to care for a dog. Unlimited potty breaks if needed. Live in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks. I can provide a pick up and drop off service if you need it. Any dog in my home will be treated as if they were my own. Dog safety and comfortability is my number one priority. They can play all day while you’re away. Your dogs will be pampered and can be on the couch, bed, or dog bed. All new clients must agree to a meet and greet prior to me confirming a booking.
“Meghan did a fabulous job taking care of my two cats! She was able to give my little female a daily med like a pro, and she spoiled both of them with attention and love!! Since I was out of town for about a week, it gave me such peace of mind to know both kitties were given such wonderful TLC!!??”
“Sienna did a wonderful job making sure our 3 month- old puppy was taken care of during my workday. It was his first time staying home for the day and I felt relieved and less anxious to know he was in great hands. Sienna stayed longer than I originally asked her to on a short notice and I couldn’t appreciate it more. Know your baby will be in the best care with her💗”
“Autumn was so sweet and I am glad she was available to dog sit Bella. Bella loved her from the moment they met. Autumn had good communication skills, was punctual and professional , sent photos of Bella and visit reports. I highly recommend and will rebook in the future.”
About: I have had pets all my life. I have 5 of my own dogs of various shape and size and foster for a couple different rescues! I am very flexible, I'm available most of the time and love to meet new pets. I try to fit the needs of pet owners where I can. I don’t plan on doing any home care. I have 5 dogs of my own and also foster. This just isn’t possible at this time.
“Rachel did an excellent job, with appropriate questions and detailed feedback. Our dog and cat warmed to her quickly, and she was very eager with petting and attention. We will definitely look Rachel up the next time we travel. One question about the Rover site. When I get the report card after every visit, there is no opportunity to leave a comment or answer questions posed in the report card. I had to go back to an old comment/question Rachel had sent. As a user, I encourage to add a reply button, or if I missed it please let me know how to find it for next time.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I dog and cat sit for my family members and take my neighbor dogs for walks very frequently. I am a college student, but I have a very flexible schedule. I have availability every day of the week and would love to spend my free time with animals. I have a house with a backyard with an extra bedroom to put any pet requirements such as a crate or toys.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Rubicon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
