“Diana was incredibly professional and our pets loved her. She was very communicative and I greatly appreciated her caring about our pets, personally. We will definitely book again!”
“Jackie has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She replies instantly and keeps me updated. I am new to pet ownership and having someone look after them while I have to travel for work. She has been amazing every step of the way.”
“Lauren is all things one would ask for in a pet sitter - reliable, caring, kind, thorough, detail-oriented, a great listener, and excellent at her job! Thank you, Lauren, for making us feel comfortable leaving our guy at home. We know he was perfectly happy and at ease in your hands. :)”
“Carla was absolutely amazing! Even though my trip ended up being canceled, she still honored the booking and came on the days we had scheduled. I was in and out of the house during that time, but she remained professional, flexible, and very understanding of the situation. Most importantly, she was wonderful with my dog and showed so much care and kindness. It really gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. I truly appreciate her reliability and compassion, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and my family currently has four, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for them over the years. I’m a huge animal lover and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care I give my family’s dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to make time for pet care around my classes and other commitments. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and time they need. I will always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, crate, and daily routine instructions, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and can also send updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.
“We are so grateful to have found Dawn. She is wonderful with our senior cat and it was so refreshing to be able to get away for a few days and not worry about her. Excellent communication and above and beyond care of our beloved pet and our home. Much appreciated. Will definitely book again.”
“Josey was great!! Ziggy needed a friend to stop in while we were out of town and she visited as planned, but went above and beyond with communication and her friendliness with Ziggy. Looking forward to have Josey stay with Ziggy again!”
About: I have taken care of all different types, ages and sizes of dogs for the past 6 years. I range from house/pet sitting to just stopping by for a short walk. I love hanging out with animals and enjoying time outside. I can’t wait to get to know and spend time with your dogs! I am currently a senior at Salisbury University so I have lots of gaps in my schedule that I can fit all different types of pet care into my routine! I care for pets only at the clients home as I live in an apartment currently. I treat the clients home with respect and how I would expect someone to value my space whether this is for house/pet sitting or just stopping by.
About: I have around 14 years of animal care experience with many different types of animals! I have been entrusted with the care, feeding, enrichment, and more from family, friends, and clients. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly as I am currently a college student and jobs are limited to us. I have a pet myself so being able to do this allows for more experience with animals. I have a dog park nearby but I can easily remove your pet from that space if needed! There is plenty of space to move around and have fun!
About: I’ve always grown up around dogs and cats, and my family also has a small farm, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals of all kinds. I love getting outside for walks, hikes, and playtime, but I’m just as happy hanging out with a pet who prefers a good cuddle! My schedule is mine to make- I am flexible and available to do frequent drop ins or “here and there” visits to fit your pets needs! I do not offer services through my home, but I am committed to keeping your home safe during the entirety of your absence. I am a tidy guest who always has your pets best interest in mind.
About: I have had my fair share of pets and I have a few years of taking care of family and friends pets even pets who need medication giving love all around. I am currently working part time. With good communication and time I will have all the love and care to give to your fur babies. To me my pets my children it’s all love and fun. From cuddles to playing outside and sneaking a bunch of treats their my world.
“My first time using Rover and Kailey was a great experience. Each step was clearly laid out so the entire process went smoothly with no surprises. Kailey was delightful. I felt confident that my fur baby was well cared for. Having her enabled me to better enjoy my time away.”
“Coming to visit my 4 cats once a day worked out with multiple cat litters. However, they HID from Kate every day! All ended well and they came out glad to see me after 4 days. I appreciate that she tried and kept them well fed until I returned!”
“Alex was great! She took great care of our dog, and was generous with her time and communication which was appreciated because we were nervous leaving the pup for the first time since moving to the area. Our dog is a cuddler who clearly adopted Alex happily into the pack. Would definitely recommend!”
“Amber was so wonderful!! She was so kind and caring to our dog, and did everything we asked for a drop-in visit. Everything went smoothly, we couldn’t of asked for anything more! Will definitely be using her again!”

My first time using Rover and Kailey was a great experience. Each step was clearly laid out so the entire process went smoothly with no surprises. Kailey was delightful. I felt confident that my fur baby was well cared for. Having her enabled me to better enjoy my time away.
Diana was a pleasure to have watch our fuzzy family. She was prompt, communicative, and kind. Diana even excelled at having to provide our one cat his daily syringes, despite being unfamiliar with orally medicating cats beforehand. I highly recommend Diana for your pet-sitting needs.
Dawn was an excellent sitter. It was our first time using her services. She took time with our pet so they could get used to her and warm up to her. I think by the end of the booking our pet was doing well with Dawn. I will be retaining her services again the next time we go out of town.

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.

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.
