About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets … I am a work from home dog mom. My schedule allows me to be present and active with my dog, allowing for multiple breaks throughout the day as we live an active lifestyle! I have an open backyard and a lab of my own to keep your pet company. We can also crate in a separate room if needed.

About: I have had two jobs in different dog daycare/boarding places. I also have a degree in vet assistant. I have volunteered at the local shelter and love it. I am currently working part time and have usually plenty of time in the early morning or late afternoon. My schedule does change weekly so there may be days I’m more flexible than others. I have one sweet little pup who is in training currently. My favorite thing is just being able to cuddle with her and spend time with her.
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I have a 2 year old little boy. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.

“She took such good care of my baby boy. Marshall is a very nervous and timid dog, so I knew he would probably be very scared when she came in to let him out, but she took the time to just sit with him and see that he was comfortable before taking him outside. Will definitely use her again!”

About: Hi! My name is Addie and I love animals! I have two dogs, three cats, and a horse of my own! I have worked at a vet clinic now for 3 years in my home town! When I am not in the clinic you can find me at WKU where I am studying animal science with a pre-vet concentration! I also love to spend my down time at the shelter in Bowling Green! Here I love on the cats and take shelter dogs for walks! I grew up on a farm with many animals and have grew to love all of them! During my job as a vet assistant I have learned how to work with all different demeanors and personalities when it comes to animals! I have experience with timid pups, outgoing animals, energetic animals, puppies, and so much more! I look forward to meeting your fur babies! In-between my classes at Western I love to spend time with animals! It provides me with a mental break from my schools and studies and gives me something to look forward to! When I am home during college breaks I spend most of my time working and carrying for animals at the clinic. However, when I have days off my favorite thing to do is to take my dogs for a hike. My house when I am not living in the dorm at school consist of two indoor cats, an indoor dog, an outdoor cat, and an outdoor dog! All of my animals have grew up together and get along with other pets just fine! I do however take them out on a leash to ensure they don’t get scared or run off!
About: I’ve been a pet parent for almost my entire life. I’m also a nurse and a certified wildlife rehabber. I love all the critters and seeing them happy and cared for. I’m currently working part time on Mondays and Tuesdays, but intend to make pet sitting my full time job. I also volunteer at a wildlife rescue part time during the week. For the most part, I’m pretty flexible. I have a fenced in yard for stays at my house. I’m happy to cater to your pets needs at their home as well. I have my own senior dog, so I’m accustomed to spoiling.
“Hailee was the best! She was very prompt in getting back with me when I requested her to come and set with my two goldendoodles. She drooped in three times a day with our girls for several days and she was always on time. She played, fed, watered and loved them. She also was so good about sending pictures and letting me know how my girls were doing. Everything was very clean when I came back home. I highly recommend her and I will be using her again.”


About: Experienced Pet Caregiver with Hands-On Puppy Raising Experience, Reliable Feeding and Walking Schedules, and a Strong Commitment to Loving, Attentive Pet Care. Dogs have been apart of my daily routine my entire life so any aspect of taking care of them has been experienced by me! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and experience caring for animals every day. I recently graduated from undergrad and am free all summer before starting graduate school, so I have plenty of time to give pets consistent attention and care. I provide a safe, clean, and caring environment for pets in clients’ homes while following their routines closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I also have three dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and understanding their needs.
About: I have had dogs for most of my life. At a very young age I fell in awe with my four legged friends! I have cared for my own dogs from puppies till their senior years of life, with care and compassion. I have three amazing dogs currently one is young (Shasta) and the two are my seniors (Phelan and Joey). I have rescued most of my pets, and I have had the ability to train and rehabilitate some. Every single one of them have always had the utmost care, love and respect individually, no matter the breed. I am currently working as a mobile notary and set my own schedule, which allows me the flexibility and time needed to meet the needs of pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to trust someone other than yourself to meet the needs and care of your fur babies. I will follow your directions and guidance to always make sure that I am meeting the specific requirements of care and need for each one of your pets individually. Communication is key!

About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.
About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and my passion for canine care began at age 14 when I first learned the fundamentals of training and responsible pet ownership. Since then, I have personally raised two dogs from nine-week-old puppies into adulthood, giving me hands-on experience with developmental needs, safety, and attentive daily care. Animals naturally sense my calm demeanor and feel comfortable around me, allowing me to build instant trust and keep them at ease. In addition to raising my own companions, I regularly help pet parents understand canine behavior and basic training through positive, clear communication that works seamlessly for both dogs and their owners. As a current student, my daily routine is structured to ensure your pets receive reliable, dedicated care without disruption. I have excellent availability early in the morning before classes, typically between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM or 11:00 AM depending on the day. After classes wrap up, I am fully free for afternoon and evening visits starting after 12:00 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and after 5:00 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As long as visits fall around these regular class windows, I can seamlessly accommodate walks, feedings, and drop-ins throughout the week. I also have zero issues providing overnight care and weekend coverage, giving your pets consistent attention, company, and love while keeping their routines completely on track. Because I am currently in school, I do not offer pet boarding in my own home. Instead, I specialize entirely in in-home pet sitting and drop-in visits, allowing your pets to stay comfortable, secure, and stress-free in their own familiar environment. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your personal space with the highest level of respect, care, and cleanliness. My primary focus is making sure all of your pet’s essential needs are met meticulously, from precise feeding schedules and fresh water to maintaining clean living areas and administering medication if required. Beyond the basics, I pay close attention to each animal’s unique personality and follow any extra instructions to the letter, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and dedicated companionship.

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 .

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 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.
