“Grace was a dream: prompt, on-time, courteous, meticulous, personable, and communicative. She asked great questions prior to our booking to assess my pet’s needs, routines, medical needs, personality quirks, and triggers—and she took very astute notes—which shows her attention to details, her sharp listening and analytical skills, and her thorough 360° approach to pet care (while also respecting the client’s home and property). It was a great sign to see how relaxed my pet was with Grace upon the first meeting! I felt very assured and confident that my pet was in good hands. Highly recommended.”
“Sierra did an amazing job of watching our fur babies while we were away. She eased our anxieties and sent us updates when she would check in. Sierra was patient with our pups and we couldn’t have asked for things to go any smoother. We will definitely be rebooking with Sierra anytime we need a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 10 years old. I’ve had dogs in my house since I was 10 and have taken care of puppies before as well. I’m currently unemployed and at home for the summer, so I have a lot of free time to devote to taking care of your babies! Any and all types of service I can do, from overnight stays to drop ins and check ups. I have experience taking care of untrained puppies and I can keep up with very energetic dogs. I can walk, feed and play with dogs or give them space as needed. I’m very respectful of animals and their owners’ wishes.
“Keira provided great services for me and my mom’s kitties. She left just the right amounts of food and the litter boxes were cleaned. It was nice to come home to a fresh smelling house after our weekend away.”

About: Animals are a passion of mine, I pride myself on providing the utmost care for my pets and am eager to provide the same care for anyone who is in need of help! I work nights currently, allowing me to fit in late night walks and early morning outings. My schedule allows me to provide extra care on overnight assignments as while they sleep I'm able to provide an attentive eye throughout the night. I am well versed in pet experience, as I have three little dogs I love dearly. I am always extending that same passion for all pets, as I feel they're just as much apart of the family. I'm very attentive and particular, so any deviation from listed behavior would definitely be something I notice.
About: I’m a passionate animal lover and former student athlete who brings energy, patience, and dedication to every pet I care for.

Whether your furry friend needs active playtime, gentle senior care, or someone reliable to keep their routine on track, I’m here to provide loving and attentive support. I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! As a grad student at Fresno State working toward becoming a school psychologist, my schedule is flexible.

I’m committed to fitting pet care seamlessly into my routine to ensure your furry friends get the attention and love they deserve, even on busy days. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets, whether in my home or the client’s. I follow each pet’s individual routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, and medication if needed. I ensure plenty of attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and always maintain a clean and secure space. Communication with the pet owner is key, so I provide updates and ask questions to tailor care to each pet’s unique needs.
About: I am a Veterinary Technician by trade so I know a lot about animals. If you have a pet that needs medication or special needs I would be able to offer that service to you. I love animals and have been around them my entire life. I have quite a few animals I take care of when their families go out of town and can provide references. I do work but can do overnights. I can also do evenings and morning drop ins or walks and my days off. We can work with my schedule easily. I won’t be able to have pets in my home because my dog is a rescue who needed to be the only dog in the household. In other peoples homes I go by whatever rules and wishes they have for me.
“Alana was great with our dog! She took care of her, played with her, and made sure she was safe while we were away. We’d highly recommend Alana and look forward to using her services again in the future!”
About: Ive always been an animal lover who has treated animals as their own. They have feelings, they’re no different than us and deserve all the love in the world I have a normal 7-4 work day. I’m usually always looking for walks after work and I’m home no later than 4:15pm. Playing with my own pets makes me so happy and that’s what I look forward to every day I care for them extremely well. I’m kind of an anal person so the cleanliness of it all has to be 10/10. I clean daily, multiple times a day and make sure their foods and waters are always fresh

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - San Joaquin River Estates
My senior dog got sick right before I left out of town. He can be a bit temperamental taking medication. Pamela willingly stepped outside her comfort zone and provided Groot his meds. She consistently communicated, shared pictured, and followed the schedule I requested.
Carolin helped care for our dog for 4 days. She dropped in each day making sure Nova was fed and had water, giving her lots of love and play time. I appreciated the pictures, videos, and notes letting us know how Nova was doing. I would highly recommend Carolin and was very grateful for her help!
Sierra did a great job taking care of my dog and I would highly recommend her to anyone! She showed up for 6 days straight, both morning and night as was agreed to which allowed my out-of-town trip to be worry free. I will definitely use her services again for my future dog sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
