“We came home from a 7-day trip to find our orange cat, Enzo, happy to see us -- but not distressed because had to go away. That's the surest sign that Tori S. did a wonderful job caring for him during her twice daily drop-in visits. She kept us informed of both his antics and appreciation each day, and we looked forward to seeing his "photoshoots." Thank you Tori, for having taken one worry off our plate!”


“Me and iris loved having Mary available to take care of iris while I was away..Mary is so accommodating and friendly.. ill always use her..especially for the leave of mine she brings while im outta town.. so very trustworthy and just a kind person”

“Sarah helped me with a last minute need for Kailani help. I appreciate her quick responses and love her pics Su takes during the visit. Thank you so much for helping care for my little girl! She loves seeing you!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life big or small. Making dogs feel loved and at home is a number one priority. Active pup deserve just as much love as relaxed pups. I am a current grad student, when I am not in class I spend my time with my dog and give him all the attention in the world. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I have plenty of trails and walking spaces for your baby to have the exercise they need. With living in an apartment I make do with the resources I have.
“I was very pleased with Layla's dependability and her interest in ensuring my Sammy was getting what he needed while I was away for over a week. She was prompt with the schedule and she updated me on how Sammy behaved and what he was up to when she made her drop-in visits. So glad I scheduled her in to ours! She did way more in a 30-min drop-in visit than what our overnight help (nephew) did during the whole 10 days I was away!”

“Kelly was awesome! She took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were away. It was so nice to be able to get away for a couple of days and know Kelly had everything under control. I’m not sure the dogs even missed us! We would highly recommend Kelly and will definitely call on her again!”
“Lindsay was very good about communicating. She was on time and sent lots of pictures of my three dogs when she visited them. She did a fantastic job I would highly recommend her.”


About: I've been around dogs my entire life and currently have a cat of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility and care that pets need. I occasionally walk and help care for friends' dogs and have experience with feeding, exercise, playtime, and providing companionship. I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I'll care for them as if they were my own. Pet care fits very easily into my daily routine. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, drop-in visits, or simply providing companionship, I can adjust my day to meet each pet's needs. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I always focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client's home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also keep the home clean and tidy, including cleaning litter boxes or picking up after dogs during walks. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I provide updates and photos to help owners feel at ease while they're away. Every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their personality and specific needs to ensure they receive the best care possible.
“If you're looking for someone to care for your pets, I cannot recommend Shelli enough! She watched our cats while we were away, and she went above and beyond anything we could have asked for. One of our cats is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day, so leaving him is always incredibly stressful. We had originally planned to board them, but between the cost and the required vet visit beforehand, it just wasn't the right fit. Shelli completely put our minds at ease. She made sure they were fed, gave insulin exactly as needed, spent time playing with them, sent us photos and updates throughout our trip, and even cleaned up after one of our cats got sick. It was obvious she genuinely cared about them and treated them like they were her own. Being able to enjoy our time away without constantly worrying about our fur babies was priceless. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats, and we couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, Shelli, for taking such amazing care of our kitties! We will absolutely be using you again and would recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter. 🐾❤️”


“Shelagh came and let my pup out for a little walk while I was at work and couldn’t come home for lunch. She walked him around and played with him a bit. She followed the directions perfectly and was very communicative. I will definitely be using her again!”

“As always, Bianca is amazing! My husband and I went out for a wedding, and needed someone to let our dogs out and feed them. She did even better by taking them for a nice long walk and making sure they were fed and happy before leaving. She is always so attentive, and we literally cannot recommend her enough.”
“Nathalia is the absolute best. My pups love her, punctual, trustworthy, communicative. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter to take care of my pups while I’m at work during the day. Highly recommended!”


“Nathalie is a true professional! We have hired Nathalie for Drop In visits as well as Housesitting visits and she is always punctual, responsible and loves on all our kitties like they are her own. She gives fantastic updates and reports on each kitty and all the happenings around the house. We feel such comfort knowing Nathalie is there for our 6 kitties while we are away!”

About: I provide calm, attentive and reliable care for dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages — including puppies, seniors and dogs who need a slower, more grounded presence. I currently care for five dogs of my own, all with different personalities and needs, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, walks, feeding schedules, medications and individual care. I pay close attention to a dog’s emotional state and adjust pace, structure and energy accordingly. My approach is steady and respectful. Dogs tend to settle quickly with me and many clients tell me their dogs are calmer and happier after our walks. I prioritize safety, communication and consistency and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I plan my days to ensure dogs receive consistent attention, exercise, and care without rushing. I prioritize safety, clear routines, and calm handling at all times. I follow owner instructions carefully, use secure leashes, and pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and surroundings, whether in my home or theirs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Augustine
We really appreciated Hanna coming over to take care of our Goldie on September 1st, especially with only two days of a request. Hanna let us know how it went with Goldie, and sent us a picture of our sweet girl, which we appreciated! We are definitely going to contact Hanna again when we need help! Thank you, again Hanna!!

Shelagh is wonderful. My cats adored her so much and they were so happy and relaxed when I came back from my weekend trip. I had such anxiety using a pet sitter for the first time ever, but Shelagh was very understanding and made sure that everything goes smoothly. She shared pictures with me and updated me during the visits. I will definitely book her again.

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 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.
