“Kalee went above and beyond with our two cats while we were away! She was very flexible and really put our cats first to make sure they were getting the attention and care they needed while we were away. We would love for her to watch them again in the future.”
About: I have been around and loved dogs for my entire life. One of our family dogs had two litters while I was in high school and I helped take care of and raise the puppies. I also frequently pet-sat for neighbors and friends. Last year my wife and I adopted a puppy from Puerto Rico who we adore. I look forward to giving your pets the care and love they deserve! I do freelance work as a musician and dancer, so I have a fairly unpredictable schedule. Currently I am available on weekdays from 8 AM to 10 PM but I can be available on some weekends. I am happy to play with your dogs in their home or yard, to work on training as needed (our dog has been in training courses for around six months), or to do whatever else your dog will enjoy! I also enjoy walks and am happy to take your dog around the neighborhood or to nearby parks.
“Haley was wonderful with our little dog. She came for a meet and greet the day before and I quickly knew she was an animal lover. She was always quick to respond, on time, and communicated well. Her pictures and details on the rover cards gave us peace of mind that Freya was in good hands and well cared for.”
About: Hi! I’m Michelle, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve always had rescue dogs and cats, and caring for them has been one of the greatest joys in my life. I’ve raised and cared for several of my own rescues. I’ve also fostered and occasionally foster failed before ultimately adopting. Through those experiences I’ve cared for pets with very different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve worked with animals ranging from tiny kittens to gentle giants like Great Pyrenees. I’m a dependable, detail-oriented person who understands that every pet has their own routine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll do my best to make them feel comfortable and loved. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being treated like one of my own. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite parts of the week. I keep my schedule organized so I can provide reliable, dependable care. I’m available for morning and evening visits during the workweek, as well as weekends, and I’ll always communicate clearly if I have any scheduling limitations. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, especially while their family is away. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.
“We were on a cruise so we were unreachable. When we got back I got all the pics and updates that Lauren sent. I’m super glad we found someone that took good care of our boys.”
About: My fascination for animals has been lifelong. I have several years of professional experience working in pet stores, which has provided me invaluable hands-on experience with a wide variety of species. However, I hold myself to a much higher standard than what is typically expected in a retail setting. My passion for working with animals is rooted in deep empathy and a continuous commitment to self-education. I am capable of administering medications, providing first aid, and accommodating pets with disabilities. I am also trained in identifying common health issues such as fleas, ringworm, heat stress, and others. Other relevant experience include years of dog walking and pet sitting for friends, 4-H rabbit projects, volunteer work for the National Park Service, a letter of recognition from a former governor for promoting animal conservation, and a certificate in rat tickling from Purdue University. My schedule is very flexible for any time of day, any day of the week. I am open to working holidays. I can usually work around last-minute arrangements and schedule changes. Foremost, I am respectful of your personal property and privacy. Hygiene/cleanliness for your pet, your home, and for myself is also a priority. I understand if you have cameras in your home for peace of mind. I am happy to regularly check in with you and send photos as well.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I am patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual routine and personality. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I will follow your instructions carefully, keep your home respectful, and provide regular updates and photos while you are away. I am currently enrolled in classes at IU, so Mondays and Wednesdays are my busiest days, although I am still available during those evenings. I have flexible daytime and nighttime availability the rest of the week, including weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I live in a comfortable apartment with convenient access to dog parks and several local parks for walks, exercise, and playtime. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and safety instructions while keeping pets comfortable and supervised. I will also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and happy.
“Ashli is awesome! This was our first drop-in without anyone home after a meet & greet, and everything went great. She kept an eye on Coda and made sure he didn't try to swallow any bully stick pieces and even brought our packages inside. Our plans changed last minute, and Ashli was super flexible with timing, so we were able to stay out a little later. It's a huge relief not having to worry about being away knowing she's keeping him company and taking great care of him.”
“Alana did an amazing job taking care of my cat. Alana has cats which made me feel even more good knowing my cat was in good hands. Alana was communicative and very accommodating which I appreciated! Will definitely book again!”
“Catherine has been fantastic with our dog. She is quick to respond to bookings and sends fantastic pictures and updates while she is with our pup. 100% would recommend her for any service.”
“Jaime, Was very prompt responding to requests and questions. Was on time and very good with the dogs. Sent us a message when leaving at the end of the evening. Would highly recommend.”

About: I've have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all pets and I am very flexible and willing to learn how to best take care of your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your pets, I will dedicate my time to loving them. I've had 5 energetic dogs throughout my life. My family has had everything from small to really big. We had a papillon, papillon mix, pomeranian, pitbull/boxer mix, and a pitbull/german shepherd mix. My dogs were always the larger ones and I can handle walking very large dogs easily since my dogs weren't the best on the leash. Currently we have two dogs but I learned how to take care of them when they were babies, to when they were having old age problems. So, I can work with any range of age. I also have a cat in college now that I love taking care of. I am a student-athlete currently, but I always have time in the evenings to dedicate to taking care of a pet. I am available for drop-ins on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. When you are home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I am a student-athlete at IU Bloomington, so my schedule is a little packed but I miss my pets and I also love to walk, so this sounded like a great option. I am free on Saturday after morning practice, all day Sunday, mostly all day Tuesday, and all day Thursday. :) I would care for my client's pets like they were my own. I can handle giving them constant attention, feeding, walking, watering, and everything else. I am 6'0 ft tall, so I can handle big dogs if necessary.
About: I have always loved dogs/cats and giving them the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule at the moment which allows me to help you and your pets! Advice: if you have a dog that is not fully house-trained, it’s best to book house-sitting instead of drop-in visits to insure growth on the progress you have already made. I like to be very attentive to each pup and reward them for their good behavior learning! (Also, when I house/dog sit I do a daily surface clean/sweep/mop/etc) as a courtesy/no extra charge! I work part-time as a dental hygienist and on my own chosen schedule. I will make taking care of your dog/cat my main priority for the day(s) needed.

He doesn't bark much and we do not feed him human food. We have plenty of toys and treats! If your pup likes human food, then we can make an exception for them if you would like;)

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.
