About: I have been around / taken care of animals since I first opened my eyes it seems.. no but I did grow up on a farm actually. When I was 8 my dad got me a pony named peanut. My parents have never gone without having 2-3 dogs at all times. Not only that, I babysat, dog sat, and house sat all throughout high school and college. Still at it and I love it. Working with animals comes easy for me. I’ve done and seen it all. I also have years of experience working with special needs of all ages, even traveled to different states as their guide along trips. Ive gone on deep sea fishing trips with disabled veterans and their pets. Anyway, enough about me! Can’t wait to meet you all! ————- Let me know if you have any questions. I typically do 15-20 min meet and greets which are scheduled upon request before booking. Making space for your fur babe to feel comfortable safe and connected is important, so don’t worry I will make plenty of time in order to do so while checking in with you once or twice a day. Sharing photos and videos in between. I usually play calming music on the tv throughout the day and assure they can relax and trust that they are in safe hands. I know it takes a few days. They have plenty of space in the yard as well to interact with wildlife, play, relax, etc.
“Mia is amazing! She took such great care of our baby girl! Our pup just loves her and was so we’ll taken care of! She did above and beyond by taking the trash out and bringing in our mail! Thank you so much Mia!”
“Our family was so very fortunate to find you on Rover. You’re caring and thorough! We truly appreciated your professionalism and the care you gave our Lilly. We loved the photos and enjoyed seeing what her experience was like for the day. We would highly recommend you to anyone and would definitely book you in the future if needed. Thank you for making our vacation a memorable experience even with traveling with our Lilly Bean! 💕”
“So sweet and responsive. Has done great with the dogs and is very kind and patient towards them. She was very understanding of my dog’s reactivity and we worked together to find a solution where everyone was comfortable. This has been a such a relief knowing I have someone set up to watch the pups even for just a little bit during the day.”
“Helen did a great job with drop in visits for our dogs while we were staying in a motel. She was very familiar with area, which helped us a lot. Helen was on time for her visits and sent us pictures of our pups. We will definitely use her again.”
“I’ve had the pleasure of booking her every single time I need someone to take care of my two fur babies. She does an amazing job every time. She consistently follows directions, is always punctual, and communicates exceptionally well. If for any reason she can’t make it at the scheduled time, she always reaches out ahead of time to explain the situation and check whether the adjustment works for me. I truly appreciate the communication more than anything else. I especially appreciate how accommodating she is when last-minute situations come up. She’s always willing to work around changes to make sure my pets are still cared for. Even when I give her plenty of notice in advance, she keeps it in mind and is always happy to help. I’ve continuously booked with her because she’s the first person I think of whenever I need someone reliable to care for my pets, and I fully plan to keep booking with her going forward.”
About: Hi! My name is Emily and I’m getting ready to go to graduate school and have some free time right now! I grew up with cats and dogs, regularly watch my friends Bernadoodle, and would love to be a sitter for your pet! I’m currently not working, as I am starting Graduate school in a few weeks and have plenty of free time! I am very flexible for drop ins and walks! I give the dog plenty of love and attention, make sure that they get some play time in, and make sure to take them out regularly. I am experienced with dogs as I watch my friends dog regularly and also grew up around dogs and cats. I’ll make sure to lock everything up and follow the pet owners requests as each dog has different routines and needs!
“This was my first time leaving my cat home alone for so long as well as using Rover so I was a little nervous, but Deedra was awesome! She sent me detailed messages along with pictures every time she dropped in to check on my cat. Communication was also very easy. She definitely eased my worries since I knew my cat was in good hands. Thanks for everything, Deedra!”
“This was the first time Alyssa took care of my cat, and she was awesome! My cat is usually shy around strangers but he took to Alyssa right away. Alyssa went above and beyond to make my cat feel comfortable and loved while also sending me lots of pictures and updates. Would highly recommend!”
“Kristen went above and beyond for my Bruno! And she did it on short notice and a holiday none the less. Couldn't be more thankful for her dropping in. I will ask for her again!!”
About: My first job, at age 12, was pet sitting/dog walking. I've had pets my entire life ranging from dogs and cats to rodents, fish, and reptiles. I currently have 4 cats. I have experience with older dogs and cats as well kittens and puppies. I've also spent years working in customer service so no request will be too much. I have plenty of time for walks and playtime. I can keep up whatever routine your pet is used to. I live near a dog park and can take your pup if they like to play with other dogs If your dog doesn't like cats, my cats can easily be kept separate in my room. They spend most of their day sleeping in there anyway
“Amanda is a fantastic sitter and very dependable. She took excellent care of our two kitties and made us feel very comfortable and secure. She gets some awesome pictures and our shy cat warmed to her quickly which demonstrates her special connection with animals.”
“Cassie took great care of my best friend. Communicated flawlessly and followed all directions. My cat is always terrified of strangers but she seemed to love Cassie immediately! Thank you!!”
About: Welcome to your dog’s home away from home! 🐾 We’re a dog-loving family with over 2 years of experience dog sitting, and we love making every pup who stays with us feel like part of the family. Our home has nearly half an acre of fully fenced yard, giving dogs plenty of room to run, explore, play, and burn off some energy. We also have two friendly dogs of our own—a Labrador and a Golden Retriever—who love having new friends to play with. And your pup definitely won’t be short on attention! We have four kids who absolutely love dogs and are always happy to provide extra pets, cuddles, playtime, and love. Whether your dog wants to race around the backyard with our dogs, play with the kids, or just relax and get lots of attention, we want them to feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. We know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, and we’ll treat your pup just like one of our own. ❤️🐶 I work from home so I have lots of time to give your pup plenty of potty breaks and play time. During the evening and weekends the kids are home and ready to help with potty, play time and feedings. We have a fenced in yard to keep your pup safe. Our dogs are left in the family room when we're gone but we have a crate if your pup would feel more secure in that.
About: I will always ask for a meet and great before committing to boarding or sitting. I want you to hear you concerns and needs and make sure we are a good fit. Your pet will get lots of cuddles, walks and playtime. I have open availability and will work with you to ensure that your loved one is cared for. If I am in your home I will follow the routine and rules you have in place for the well being of your pet. If I am onboarding your furry friend feeding/ potty and bed times will be adhered to.
“Jennifer watched our cat Ozzy while we were out of town the week of Christmas and she was fantastic! Oz is very used to having us home all the time so leaving for 5 days was hard for us and him but Jennifer’s daily updates with pictures, to let us know his mood and that he was doing well was so reassuring. Would definitely recommend Jennifer as a sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Safety Harbor
Jordyn was amazing! Our Pug baby loved her! I had only ever used Rover 1 time years ago but I had just moved states so needed a reliable sitter. After meeting her, she made us feel comfortable & confident leaving Blue in her care while we were away. She always took the time to actually spend time with Blue while she was dropping in & gave us cute pics & walks details! Also, I have a shy kitty that typically doesn’t allow himself to be seen to visitors unless they’ve spent ample time around him, he wasted no time introducing himself to Jordyn so that alone says a lot about how comfortable she make pets feel. Thank you Jordyn!

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.

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.
