“What a treasure we have found! Sierra made going out of town for a quick getaway easy! She has great communication, was reliable, and was terrific with our pets! We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Brayden did an amazing job with our pup! It was so nice to see her happy when we got back from our trip. Will definitely see if Brayden is available next time. Would definitely recommend!”
“Crystal was amazing with my two dogs. She showed them all the love they needed while I was away! I 100% recommend for anyone’s needs while your away for your furry friends.”
“Jennifer has been a life saver!!! My dog, Paisley, can be very timid and reactive but has gotten used to Jennifer quickly. I needed a lot of help in a short amount of time and Jennifer answered the call. She’s ALWAYS on time, has never cancelled unexpectedly , gives me her schedule way in advanced for adjustments, and great communication on visits. I completely trust Paisley, who is my world, in Jennifer’s hands. Please reach out to her if you need some help, she won’t disappoint!”
About: I grew up with dogs in my home since I was a toddler. I have watched/washed/walked animals all my life for family and friends my whole life. I am a stay at home mom to a 6 year old and a 6 month old. I have plenty of time in my schedule for taking care or animals. I can easily take the dogs for a walk to let them go potty along with getting some fresh air. I can give meds to animals whenever needed. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I will be home all day if boarding. I am reliable with transportation! I also have my own puppy so that way your puppy will have company! I have a fenced in yard, so no animals can run away (unless the sneak past my front door), my own puppy will keep yours company so they won't get lonely while there parent is not there for the time being!
About: I have owned pets since I was 6 years old. Seven cats and one small dog. I am more experienced with cats, but I do understand what taking care of a dog entails. I have experience with diabetic cats, elderly cats, and the grumpy cats too. It's hard not to fall in love with all of them. I currently work overnights at my primary job on an eight days on, six days off schedule. I plan to primarily work on my days off. However, I can also take on reasonable jobs during my workweek when my schedule allows. Overall, my availability is fairly open. When I take care of your pet in your home, I'll follow your routines and any specific instructions you provide. I'll give them the attention they need while keeping their environment safe and secure. I know every pet is different, and I'll work to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away.
“Jessica was so wonderful to work with! She came through for us on a last minute booking after a cancellation and was willing to make her schedule work for us. She’s communicative and you can tell how much she really loves animals. I will definitely be booking Jessica again!”
“Rebekah went above and beyond what I would have asked of her. She looked after my two cats while I was on my Paris trip in such a way as allowed me to enjoy the trip without worrying about my boys. Truly, truly amazing, and the very definition of above and beyond. Thank you so much”
“I highly recommend using Madeline for drop in visits! She did a wonderful job caring for our two Boxers. She was very communicative and right on time with her drop-ins. We can’t wait to use her again in the future!”
“Mary did an excellent job of looking after our cats while we were gone. She sent pictures of each visit and assured us that our guys were doing fine. We will be in touch with Mary the next time we need to be out of town.”
“Sydney did a great job taking care of our dog! Our dog loved her from the first meet and greet, I would recommend her to anyone. She did a great job communicating with us while we were gone.”
“Joan is so kind. She even came over a couple times before my booking to meet Boo and practice a new way of administering a medication. Will definitely book in the future when I need help with my epi-kitty.”
“Lisa is a godsend! I have a cat with diabetes that requires shots twice a day which makes it difficult to leave town without having someone to administer the shots. My cat took to her right away and I was able to enjoy a weekend out of town knowing he was being taken care of!”
About: Having a border collie as a family dog, I’m very knowledgeable in the importance of enrichment for certain breeds. Having just lost our family dog, I know very well the impact our pets have, they’re family and not just pets. I am currently self employed as an licensed esthetician and nail technician. I can make time when needed almost always. Let me know what you need and I'll be happy to deliver! I am very familiar with kenneling, big on environmental safety checks, as we know it only takes a few seconds or a minute for something to go unseen!
“She’s is great with our two dogs even though they are crazy! She is very good at communicating and giving updates. She was willing to meet with us beforehand so we felt comfortable. Really wonderful and will definitely use her again for future trips. Our dogs love her!!”
“Kadasia took wonderful care of the one cat who didn’t stay hidden and also had successful searches to find the one who wouldn’t come out. We really appreciated her interactions with both cats. A very successful visit.”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rumsey
Jason is great! He dropped in to meet the new pup and spend time with our family. He’s punctual, he asks questions about how the new pup is getting along and how the pack is integrating, and he enjoys spending time with our fur babies. Thank you, Jason! We appreciate you being a part of our family and spending time with us.
Allisyn has been an amazing and consistent dog sitter for us! She always goes above and beyond, and we feel completely comfortable knowing our dog is in such good hands with her. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares for our dog, and we truly feel like she loves her as much as we do. We couldn’t recommend Allisyn enough! We are so thankful for her!
Farrin is so caring of all animal’s needs! She was able to take care of our two cats when we thought we would have to board them during our summer trip. Luckily, she took great care of Misty and Demitri and provided them with everything they needed. She sent tons of pictures and updates, ensuring we knew our little ones were doing great while we were away. Thanks again, Farrin!!
Megan is WONDERFUL with Hank. I can tell she really loves to see him and is very communicative and flexible with care! I’ve asked her to use certain equipment, give meds, and a few other things and she’s always done what I’ve asked. Terrific human and dog person! 10/10 would recommend and will be!

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.
