“Kennedy is the best! She always writes the cutest little updates about what they did during the drop in which makes my work day. If you’re looking for someone to take your pup out while you work I would highly recommend”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for my big lady, Blake. She can be a lot to handle, but she took amazing care of her! I got regular updates and photos, and it was clear she felt totally at ease with her. Coming home to a happy dog says everything. Highly recommend and will absolutely book again!”
“Enoni is wonderful! So patient and so kind, always kept sending me updates and I'm definitely going to be usijg her in the future anytime I need. She loves my pups!”
About: I have dogs so there will always be play time scheduled, love going outside and watching animals play, I’ve grown up with animals my whole life so it’s nothing to add a few more to be loved on. Bath time is also a favorite for me, to watch the little babies jump around in the watch and wiggle the water all off. I’ve watched dogs for around 5 years now and never had any issues with any clients or animals I’ve come in counter with. I know how to administrator injectors to animals , and give medicines needed for sick babies. I don’t work long days so will have plenty of time to spend with the animals I’m watching at the time. I have a huge back yard made just for dogs.
“Carrie helped me at the last minute! So grateful for her support and professionalism. She understood our kittens special needs and kept him safe. I recommend Carrie to any pet owner fortunate enough to book her. Thank You!”
“Calli was so so amazing with our pups!! It’s always hard leaving part of your family with a stranger but she quickly had our trust. She gave lots of photos and updates and we had two happy pups and a clean house when we returned (: we will be 110% working with her again!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I can train puppies and take care of senior dogs. I have experience with it all. My father used to raise and train puppies since I was 10, so that’s where I get the magic spark from. I am so passionate to take care of, and to love on animals. I have three dogs of my own that we have raised since they were little. I work part-time, and have flexible hours, so I am available for your pups whenever you need a babysitter! Day or night, I can help! When I take care of these pups, I like to chat with the owner about their expectations for the house, and for their pup. Follow instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and bedtime. If accidents happen, clean them up as soon as possible. Stay out of rooms or areas the owner has marked as off-limits. Keep your belongings tidy and out of the way. Keep the volume down. I like to keep owners updated with text and pictures. I also like to do a quick tidy-up before the owner gets back to their sweet pup 🐶!

“Amy did a fantastic job with my dogs and fish! I never worried about them at all and got multiple pictures. The dogs looked happy and worn out every time. I will definitely rebook Amy!”

“Alyssa was a life saver!!!! Alyssa was so kind and the most consistently communicative person I have ever met! I literally felt the whole time like I was right there with my dog! She communicated better than anyone I’ve ever met truly she is amazing. I was never worried the whole time she was watching my baby! Her bio is so accurate she will truly be your dogs best friend !! Coming from someone who has a slightly reactive dog who doesn’t love everyone she meets, my dog was IN LOVE with Alyssa. She loved her from the moment she met her. I was so incredibly impressed by not only her communication skills but her ability to connect with my dog and make me feel still at home with her. I couldn’t recommend her more and can promise that I will be having her over again!!! Book Alyssa for your next get away you will not regret it. She is a 1000/10 all around.”
“Raymond was very punctual, professional, and took great care of our pup? He made sure to send pictures each visit and kept in touch. I'd give 10 stars if I could! We'll definitely be reaching out in the future.”

“Donald was an excellent care provider for my dog. He was always on time always sent great pictures. Handled my dogs health issues with ease and confidence. My dog even started to like him”
About: I’ve had family pets since I was six including dogs, cats, and a parrot. My very first job was working at a vet clinic where I worked for five years. I love animals and right now have one sweet senior dog named Ginger. I’d love to interact with other animals when care is needed. I work Monday to Friday during day time hours so am available in the mornings before 8 and after 5pm and any time on weekends. I have a large fenced yard with one area sectioned off. I love being outside in the yard letting my dog roam around. Since she’s older she doesn’t do well on long walks but I love going for walks with dog friends.
“My mother had an emergency medical issue and I could not be there to help her care for her pup Hannah. On super short notice Jennifer saved the day. She has been a lifesaver. I am beyond grateful to have found her. I can breathe easier knowing that I have Jennifer to call on. Hannah LOVES her and thats all I needed to know. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You”

Stephanie was super considerate with my cats, giving meds every single day and playing with them so they didn’t feel alone. She also communicated every day, providing awesome pictures of my babies. I really appreciate everything she did, and would highly recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a pet sitter!
We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! From the moment we met Austyn it was clear how much she genuinely cares about her animals. Our pets were happy and well cared for the entire time away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us a piece of mind, knowing our dogs are in good hands. Austyn is reliable, professional, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for your pets!
Eboni had been wonderful! I've been working with her for several months. I employed her help in the beginning to train my dog, which she was eager to do, because he was very reactive but now he is very comfortable with her. She is kind, professional, punctual, and is a proactive communicator. I happily look forward to continue working with Eboni. She's been great!

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 Saint Marys 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. 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
