“Vi is without a doubt the best pet sitter we have ever had. She provided the most detailed updates and photos daily. She took the time to take our cat to the vet at our request after he experienced some relapsing symptoms of a prior injury. Cannot recommend her more. We felt like our cat was so loved and cared for under her watch.”
“I very pleased with Elizabeth’s kindness and attentiveness! I am beyond neurotic when it comes to my fur babies lol and I have incredibly high expectation of their care and safety - They are my children. I found Elizabeth’s profile and although it’s always nerve wracking to entrust someone with your “kids” you just met, I had a good feeling about her in our messages. we arranged a meet and greet prior to our first Christmas Day evening visit and she was just wonderful. She listened closely to their routine at our meet and greet, and was very sweet and personable. She sent many photos during their Christmas Day visit which is always appreciated; She coaxed our pup who is a picky eater to eat more of his dinner which was a win and our very shy young cat even came out to say hi to her which never happens! I had notated in their care notes to stay in well lit areas on the walk with our pup due to coyotes and I could tell from the photos and map in rover she did exactly that- It means the world that she paid attention and customized their visit with our requests. I can tell She has a kind heart for animals and I am grateful we found her. We came home that night to two happy, well fed and content babies- already planning their next visit with her in January. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Michelle is wonderful, and our pup loves her! We appreciate all the cute photos and the timely responses. She is always very easy to communicate with and incredibly reliable.”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of our puppy! This was our first time using Rover and we were a little nervous but we are very happy and will definitely schedule with you again in the future!”
About: Hi, my name is Selena, and I have been caring for animals, including dogs and cats, since I was 18 years old. Before I started pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I had my own pets growing up. I had a black cat named Blacky as a child and a terrier mix named Hope, who sadly passed away in 2023. Both of them were deeply loved, and they are the reason I have such a soft spot for animals. When pet sitting, I always follow the rules given to me and pay close attention to any indoor and outdoor allergies. My goal is to have fun with your pets while you take care of your busy day. I'm excited to meet your furry companions! I am a college student but fully online so I am flexible during the weekdays. I do have a permanent part-time job but as summer season arrives I will be working less hours during the summer.
About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life! Growing up, my family had three Shih-Poos, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I currently have a Cavapoo of my own, which has given me plenty of hands on experience with puppy care, training, walks, playtime, and keeping a pup happy and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some playtime, or simply a friendly check in while you’re away, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care! I’m primarily available on weekends and have the most flexibility for walks and drop ins throughout the day. I work in office during the week, but can be available for evening and nighttime walks on weekdays when needed. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pup gets the time, attention, and exercise they need! Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your pup safe and secure during walks, and provide pictures and updates so there’s no need to worry on how your pup is doing!
About: Since I was 16 I have dog, cat, and house sat for family, friends, and neighbors with respect, love, and care! I love all animals! Im currently working as a server in Laguna beach! My schedule is at random (around 3-4 days a week) and my shifts don’t last longer than 5 hours! So, I will be able to spend as much time as you need me to taking care of and showing your pets love! I take care of other peoples animals as if they were my own. I will follow care rules and instructions delicately and with precision. It’s important to me to follow the rules of the house and with the animal to create a comfortable stay!
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Evelyn – Outstanding Dog Sitter! Evelyn was truly amazing! She stayed in our home to care for our older dog and followed all our directions perfectly. She gave him extra attention, special treatment, and was incredibly thoughtful and cautious with all his elderly needs. We received several updates each day, including photos and messages that gave us so much peace of mind. Evelyn also stayed overnight in our home to watch him which meant the world to us. When we returned home, the house was spotless—actually cleaner than when we left! We feel so blessed to have found Evelyn. She’s truly a treasure, and we look forward to having her back again soon. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional, compassionate pet care!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of every age and personality, but the seniors and medical-needs ones have truly changed my heart. I understand the patience and gentleness they need from giving medications to helping them feel safe and loved again. I’ve also worked with puppies, helping them build confidence and learn good habits early on. Whether it’s a playful pup or a senior soul, I make sure each dog feels like they belong and are cared for as if they were my I’m own. I work from home most of the month so I am able to care for my dogs and a few special need dogs. I have cared for dogs with multiple health issues such as diabetes, heart issues, cancer, kidney issues and more. I can help give medications, insulin or any other special needs. I treat every pet like my own. At my home, they have a large yard to play and explore safely, and plenty of cozy spots to relax. My dogs love to cuddle, so there’s always lots of affection and comfort. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I make sure they feel loved, secure, and part of the family.
About: I've been raised around dogs my entire life and deeply understand them. To me, dogs are the best beings in existence. Caring for them is my passion, and I always treat every pet with unconditional love, patience, and absolute safety. I am completely free and available all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. For all other days of the week, I am fully available anytime after 4:00 PM. I would absolutely love to care and work with your dogs! When caring for pets in a client's home, my absolute priority is maintaining their usual routine to keep them stress-free. I always follow the owner's precise instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, and exercise. Safety is essential, so I carefully secure doors, double-check leashes, and supervise them closely. To give owners peace of mind, I send regular photo and video updates throughout the day.

I’m experienced in administering medications and offering extra care for senior dogs, ensuring their comfort and health. Whether it's energetic puppies or older dogs needing a little more TLC, I’m here to give your furry family members the love and attention they deserve! As someone who works full-time but is home in the evenings, pet care is a rewarding part of my routine. My mornings and evenings are dedicated to providing love and attention to your furry friends, whether it’s playtime, feeding, or a relaxing walk. Caring for animals allows me to start the day off with fulfillment and unwind after work and bring joy to both myself and the pets I care for. It’s a perfect way to balance my day while ensuring your pets are happy and well-cared for.

“We loved Kayla! We hired her to water our veggie plants twice a day while were were out of town. She showed up on time the morning before we left. She was polite, attentive, and had lovely manners. After we returned from our trip, it was clear that she had taken excellent care of our plants. Everything looked great! I would absolutely trust her with pets and would hire her again in an instant.”
“Suzanne was wonderful taking care of our cat while on vacation. She had excellent communication with us, kept us updated each day, and would send photos to check in. Highly recommend Suzanne for any cat sitting services and will be our first person to contact the next time we are out of town.”

Mabel did an amazing job watching our cat while we were away on an international trip. She was super responsive, provided frequent updates, and left us feeling reassured that our cat was in the best possible hands. At one point we had a mishap with our auto feeder and Mabel helped us get things sorted seamlessly. Our cat loved her and yours will too!
Kristen has done an excellent job watching my dog Buddy. I have used her multiple times and she is timely and gives great updates. Most recently, my plans fell through and I needed someone last-minute. Kristen was prompt in replying and had been very accommodating overall. I would certainly recommend her to my family and friends.
Vi does a great job looking after my two cats Zoey and Ruby. She sends thorough updates and plenty of pics which is always appreciated. She is polite, responsive and does a great job cleaning up any mess that my girls might make. I highly recommend Vi’s services!

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.
