“Tiantian was an exceptional and responsible dog walker - she was punctual, flexible and took care of my dog Lucy with love and care. I would use her again without any hesitation! She is a lovely person who is responsible and caring!!”
“Malene has been amazing with my dog Po. Po has a lot of medical issues including seizures and Marlene has been super tentative and has been on top of my strict routine for Po. I really appreciate all the photos and information about each stay. She is phenomenal and I plan to use her every time I need help with my pup.”
About: I’ve had dogs and/or cats since I was 4 and was always the one caring for them. I started pet sitting 6 years ago after watching a neighbors pet and realizing how much i enjoyed caring for them. I love walking, feeding and playing with them. On occasion i’ve found myself having to get them cleaned up after a day of fun so bathing isn’t a problem. I’m currently working part time from home and flexible with times. I’m an early riser therefore mornings don’t bother me and depending on distance I can be available in the evening. Currently I have two cats so their fun activities are kept indoors. There’s a cat tree they love to relax on and they both LOVE water so i’ll give them fresh water from the faucet. In clients home I’ll abide by any preferences they have for their pets and play with them non stop.
“She was amazing! She was very willing to work with me and my schedule when I had to change the plan for our drop in visits at the very last minute (my pet got sick and needed medicine at specific intervals). I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Thank you Lisa for taking care of my cat! She did an exceptional job - was very professional and communicated well. I strongly recommend her and will be contacting her again if I ever need a sitter.”
About: I’ve worked for a boarding shelter, grew up with 3 dogs and now own 2 cats. I love them so much and dream of a small farm! I work part time, I can work around this schedule for the most part. I have quite a bit of availability for your little love I prefer drop ins or stay overs! If your pet gets along with cats and is smaller, I can watch them at my apartment with lots of walking space surrounding. Let’s chat!
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs my entire life and absolutely love being around animals! I’ve trained multiple dogs over the years, and I’ve even attempted to train a few cats—but that’s still a work in progress. 😸 I enjoy taking the pups for walks and runs, playing fetch at the dog park and giving them all the love and attention. You can find me playing “Where did the red dot go?” with my feline friends and also giving them all the love and attention. I have experience with drop-in visits and in-home pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routes. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time taking care of animals. I enjoy being active and already go on plenty of walks and runs. Adding a dog would just making my walks a lot better! I follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeing, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I’m respectful of your home, and make sure everything in clean and locked up before I leave. I also update you with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and taken care of. 🐶😺
“Lynn did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Max, while I was away. He was always on time, followed all of my care instructions, and made sure Max was well fed and got his bathroom breaks every day. My flight was delayed, and Lynn even covered an extra day without any issues, which I really appreciated. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. I highly recommend Lynn and would absolutely book him again!”

“I had an amazing experience with Amy, and couldn’t be more grateful. We were away for a week and she gave us updates daily with photos to let us know how our fur babies were doing. What really stands out is Amy went above and beyond to let us know of additional tasks that we hadn’t mentioned forgot to mention. Amy really is the best!”
About: I’ve been around dogs practically my entire life — I got my first dog when I was 3! Over the years I’ve had dogs of different sizes and personalities, including a Rottweiler and a Shih Tzu. I also spent part of my childhood in a home with cats, so I’m very comfortable with both dogs and cats. Both of my dogs have sadly passed, and I definitely miss having pets in my life. I’m reliable, responsible and will give your pets plenty of love and attention while they’re in my care. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and coming into your home, so I’ll always communicate with you and treat both your pets and your home with care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Pete Beach
This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't be happier. Alyssa was super prompt during the booking and greeting process and as soon as we met her we knew we made the right choice. Our cat McKenzie was very well cared for, and with each passing day and photo updates, we could see him change and become more and more comfortable. Final day, flat on back, paws up, just totally relaxed. Thank you, Alyssa for a wonderful experience for all of us.
Linzey was so good with my three boys my cats Especially my one that has cardiomyopathy he takes medicine for He ended up getting real sick, while I was away on a cruise Linzey did everything she could to get him to an emergency hospital because he was in critical condition Even though I didn’t have great service she did everything she could to inform me and she let me know at the hospital what was going on If it wasn’t for her he wouldn’t have made it. She was great with my other two cats as well. I will definitely be using her again
We are so happy we were able to book Kylee last minute for our 4 months old kitten! She showed up promptly at each scheduled drop-in and took care of everything Pixel needed while we were away. Litterbox cleaning, feeding, so much play time and cuddle sessions plus plenty of treats to keep Pixel quite happy! We also got a ton of photo updates with each visit which helped ease some of my worry about leaving our kitten home for the first time but she made sure to communicate consistently and we had nothing to worry about. We will definitely book Kylee again int the future!
Amazing experience!! Skylar is professional and quick to respond. She is attentive and followed all the instructions I left for my dog Wrigley. She also kept me updated while I was away w plenty of photos. I can gone from vacation to a happy and well cared for pup!
Another great drop in visit from Dylan. Thank you so much for always being so flexible and accommodating, within reason, and so so comunitive. We are so glad we get to continue working with you and can't wait until your next visit taking such good care of our girls.
Our 7-year-old American Bulldog has always been a challenge to find care for. Until now, the only person we trusted to watch him was my brother-in-law. Our dog gets protective and anxious when we leave, and because of his size, many people are understandably hesitant to come into our home without us there. Dan went above and beyond by taking the time to meet our dog several times before our trip and doing a few trial visits to build trust. His patience, kindness, and calm demeanor made all the difference, and he ended up being the perfect fit for our pup. Knowing we had someone we could truly rely on gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We no longer have to stress about leaving town, and that is priceless. Dan is amazing, and we couldn't recommend him more highly. We can't wait to use his services again in the future!
I cannot recommend Tessa highly enough! From the moment we first reached out, her responsiveness was exceptional. Appointment requests were always answered within minutes, making scheduling incredibly easy and stress-free. One of our biggest concerns was having someone we could truly trust in our home—and this sitter exceeds all expectations. She respected our space, kept everything tidy, and we always felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such capable and reliable hands. What truly sets Tessa apart is her remarkable attentiveness to our dog’s special needs. Our aging Weimaraner has a unique diet and medication schedule and some specific behavioral quirks, but Tessa took the time to learn every detail and made sure our dog felt happy and safe. We regularly received thoughtful updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while away. If you’re searching for a quick-to-respond, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter, look no further. Our experience has been nothing short of outstanding!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
