“Iliana is the best! My shy kitty Vinny warmed up to her on the first visit - he loved her so much! If I could give her 10 stars I would, she was amazing with my two kitties.”
“Amazing! First time using Rover and couldn’t have had a better experience. They were prompt, courteous, and kept me up to date the entire time! Highly recommend them and will definitely hire them again!”
“I am so happy we found Kathy to look after my 2 doggies. This was our first time using a sitter and I was nervous about how my dogs would adjust to us being gone. Kathy was amazing! She sent pictures and communicated with me daily. We all looked forward to getting her messages and photos. Both of my dogs were happy and taken care of while we were gone. I am so happy to have found Kathy and we will definitely use her service again in the future.”
“Kieran was the best! He took great care of my cats. Giselle loved him from day one and Giuseppe even eventually decided Kieran wasn’t so scary after all and came out of hiding. All the updates were detailed and he called if anything was out of the ordinary to get clarification or further instructions. I’m extremely happy with the services he provided.”
About: I've been Twixie's dog dad for six years, she's an SPCA rescue, so I know firsthand what it takes to help a dog feel safe, loved, and settled into a new routine from day one. I've trained her myself from scratch, and she now knows sit, stay, stop, down, roll over, high five, and even "boop," so I'm comfortable working through training and behavior, not just basic care. I also took care of family dogs growing up in young adulthood, so I'm used to adjusting to another dog's habits and quirks, not just my own. Beyond hands-on care, I compile videos of my dog, so paying close attention to dogs all day isn't a chore for me, it's already how I spend my time. Pet care is a genuine priority for me right now, not something squeezed around a job. I'm reliably available from 10am to 3pm, which is plenty of time for walks, play, and attentive care without rushing anything. That's a consistent window you can actually count on, not just "whenever I have time." Your dog would be cared for at my house, which has a fully fenced backyard — plenty of safe space to run and play — plus a park right across the street for longer walks. My own dog Twixie, a friendly SPCA rescue, is there too, so your pup won't be alone, she's used to sharing space with other dogs. I'm also able to crate your dog if that's part of their routine or if you'd prefer it. I pay attention to each dog's own routine, feeding, and boundaries rather than treating every dog the same way.
“Joanne was fantastic and cared so lovingly for my Shepherd. She was prompt and thorough, following all of my requests, and additionally sent pics of my dog during her visit. When we did our meet and greet, I could clearly see she has a great temperament for caring for animals and my dog loved her. I could not have been happier and will definitely ask her again to care for my dog.”
“Fawnn is wonderful!! Everything about our interaction was great, from her coming by to meet me and the kitties prior to accepting the job, to the updates she provided throughout. I came home to healthy, happy cats. More importantly, while I was away, I was confident my boys were in good hands. I cannot recommend Fawnn more highly, and will absolutely use her services again in the future.”
“I highly recommend Wendy. She was punctual, dependable, and very easy to communicate with, always addressing any concerns or questions promptly. Her caring attitude was evident in how she interacted with my dogs, and she even offered helpful suggestions. I truly appreciated the thorough check-ins and the many photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. On top of that, she went above and beyond by helping feed our two stray cats as well. It’s clear she genuinely care for animals, and I will definitely be using their services again!”
“Vanessa was great. She was able to help us out on a last minute booking to drop in and check on our 7 month old puppy. She was even willing to stop by a few hours before we left to give us a chance to meet her and introduce her to our pup. She was on time, sent pictures, and told us all about their time together.”
“We were nervous hiring someone for the first time and Tina’s profile stood out. We met her in person before the services and she seemed like a wonderful person. She watched our cat for 2 days and we got so many pictures and videos. Our boy liked her from the moment he met her during meet and greet and I think she liked him too. Wonderful service and we highly recommend her. We are happy to have found someone that we can use again to watch our pets. Thank you Tina”
About: Your dog will stay on our private ranch with plenty of room to play, explore, and relax in a safe, supervised environment. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers a slower pace, I tailor their care to fit their individual needs. I treat every dog like one of my own and strive to provide a safe, enriching, and stress free stay so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I'm experienced with dogs of all ages, from young puppies to seniors. Having raised multiple litters, I'm comfortable with puppy routines, potty training, and socialization, while also understanding the patience and attention senior dogs need, including medication administration and mobility support. I am not taking on reactive/aggressive dogs at this time unless they can be kenneled outside of the home. Reach out to discuss. Full time dog boarder and trainer working from home. I provide 24/7 care as if your dog was one of my own. Pickup and drop off hours in morning or evening. Very limited afternoon pickup/drop off availability. 5 acres fully fenced in along with smaller fenced in play yards. Home is air conditioned. Dogs can either exercise on the full property if recall trained or in one of the smaller, 6ft tall play yard areas if they need a smaller enclosed area.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I grew up with my childhood dog and cared for him for 17 years until he passed away. I now have three huskies, so taking care of dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’m reliable, patient, and comfortable with high-energy dogs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets while you’re away, and I’ll follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated with pictures along the way. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m happy to coordinate schedules in advance and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow the routine and instructions you leave for your pets and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m careful when coming and going, especially with doors, gates, and leashes. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own and keep you updated while you’re away.
About: Animals are my pride and joy! I've cared for many different pets for about 15 years now. I grew up with cats, dogs, and many other species. Previously I've had a pitbull, and currently I have four cats! I also have fostered 12 kittens up to this point. I have already sat for dogs, cats, and bunnies. You can be confident that your pet is in the best hands and will receive top care, as caring for animals is my passion and pleasure:) Pet sitting and taking care of animals is my priority! Right now I only work part time but if anyone needs me to help out I’ll be there! I have four cats currently and I’ve had dogs.I’ve taken care of many other species and breeds for others as well so I am well versed in animal care. Whatever you need me to do as far as routine care I will do as well as give them all my love and attention. I can stay as many nights and days as you need!
About: I have experience taking care of dogs because I grew up with them. Being around dogs has always felt natural to me, so I understand the basics of feeding them, walking them, playing with them, keeping them comfortable, and paying attention to what they need. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, but I’m also playful, so I enjoy making sure dogs are not just cared for, but actually happy and engaged. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I would always respect the owner’s instructions and take time to understand what works best for their dog. I’m currently in college and home for the summer, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available for walks, playtime, drop-ins, and consistent care throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and make scheduling easy for you. I care for pets by keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I would follow their instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication, or general house rules. I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. For walks or visits, I would stay aware of my surroundings, keep dogs secure on their leash, avoid unsafe situations, and pay attention to how they’re acting. My goal is for the pet to feel cared for and for the owner to feel relaxed knowing their dog is safe and in good hands.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs, of course. I’m adept at giving medications multiple time a day if needed, as I supported one of my dog through the end of his life. If your dog is up for it, I love going on hikes as well! I often take my brother’s Aussie/ Border collie mix on hikes when I’m in the Bay Area. Ultimately, you’d be doing me a favor by allowing me the opportunity to take care of your dog. I miss having a dog around and would love to give some affection and attention to yours 🙂 I’m a graduate student in her clinical phase so my schedule varies! Currently, I’m off Friday-Monday and have a lot of free time. I will update my schedule regularly with my availability. My apartment has a dog park so your dog would get a lot of outside time along with their walks. If you have any favorite toys that your dog likes, please provide them! My goal is to make your dog feel safe and comfortable.
“Chelsea was awesome! She sent me lots of cute pics of our pup and kept me updated throughout the dropins! We will definitely use Chelsea again if we are in the area! Thanks so much Chelsea!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and truly believe pets are part of the family. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, ages, and sizes. I’m offering walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and communication along the way! Working from home gives me a lot of flexibility in my day, which makes pet care a really natural fit for my lifestyle. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and find it incredibly rewarding to care for them, whether that means going for a walk, giving them some extra attention and playtime, or simply keeping them company while their family is away. I do have a family, so I’m mindful about planning my schedule around our family commitments. That said, working from home gives me the flexibility to organize my time thoughtfully and make sure I can be present and attentive when caring for your pets. I’d love the opportunity to treat your pets like part of the family and give them the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet and your home in someone else’s care, so I treat that responsibility very seriously. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, surroundings, and anything that could potentially put a pet at risk. I also treat every home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident while your pet is with me. I’ll communicate with you, provide updates and photos, and make sure your furry family member gets plenty of love, attention, and patience while you’re away. ❤️

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sand Hill
We couldn’t recommend Tina more highly! They took such wonderful care of our dog and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. They were attentive, reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring, treating our dog like their own. We especially appreciated the updates and photos, which made it easy to relax knowing our Labrador Atticus was in such good hands. It’s clear they truly love animals and go above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. We would absolutely book with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional dog sitter!
Kieran was so good with Ruby,she loves him so much. I'm thinking of hiring him for 3 days a week forever. You can feel how much he loves animals, and he doesn't let them walk all over him, which I really liked. Ruby is a ball of energy, but he controlled her the same way I do. Kieran has a very gentle, honest personality. I would'nt even try anyone other then him.
Christina was amazing! I reached out super last minute after my original sitter had an emergency, and she was incredibly responsive and willing to help. She took great care of my dogs, made sure they were let out and had fresh water, and even came prepared in case there were any accidents. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of. I’m so grateful she was able to step in on such short notice and would absolutely recommend her!
This was my very first time using someone other than a trusted family member to take care of our beloved cat. Luckily I matched with Abby and from our first meeting, I felt very comfortable knowing she would care for my kitty with compassion and kindness. Abby was very astute to my needs as a pet owner and really set my mind at ease! The picture updates were awesome as well as the personal messages really comforted us knowing our cat’s emotional and physical needs were being met. Thanks again!
Katie is absolutely wonderful with our cats! She always takes time to play with them, make sure their food and water is replenished, and gives them plenty of pets. Katie is so reliable and we can count on her! We highly recommend Katie for all of your pet 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 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.
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 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.
