“Mia is absolutely great. She is my first sitter and the only one I will use. Her patients with my two pups was great and when I say pups to me they are. However one 136lb CORSO and 56lb PIT TERRIER MIX. She just fit in with them without any issues. Mia. Thank you again. I will be calling you again soon”

“Michelle did a great job watching my puppy and even offered me advice as a new puppy mom! She introduced my puppy to new treats and toys he loved (with my permission) when we had previously been struggling to find things he liked. She’s been super helpful throughout this new experience and highly recommend her!”
“Thi has been watching our handsome menace for almost 2 years now & we love her so much! I trust her & her husband to go above & beyond and it’s so reassuring to know Thor is being watch by them. From weekend trips, 10 day vacations, to last minute work trips, Thi is unparalleled in her care. I almost want to gatekeep her lol.”
“Rena was great. Tucker my kitty just loved her. She is reliable and attentive to him and followed the instructions I left. When I met Rena, we talked cats and she is definitely a cat lover, Tucker could tell. I highly recommend her to watch over your fur babies. I will definitely call her again when I have to go out of town.”
“Excellent job taking care of my old dog Blue. Madeline did some drop in visits for me on a late notice. She was punctual and spent time with Blue. Would absolutely book again.”
“Kathleen is amazing! She was warm and loving towards my babies. I felt so comfortable that she was taking great care of my boy while we were away. I loved how accessible she was and that she would send me pictures of my baby every day. This was my first experience using this app and I have been raving about it to all my friends with pets. I would highly recommend both Kathleen and Rover. To actually feel comfortable leaving my fur babies while on vacation is priceless.”
“It was my husband and my first time using Rover and Tatum was wonderful!! Great communication about the dog and super helpful! My dog was happy and so relaxed when we got back home.”
“Ava was wonderful. Perfect match for what I needed. She was always on time, followed all instructions, kept everything spotless, and sent daily updates and pictures. I now have a sitter that I can trust and absolutely will be using her in the future. I would highly recommend her as your next pet sitter.”
About: Hi! We're Ashley and Chantelle, a dependable animal-loving couple who treats every pet like family. One of the biggest benefits of booking with us is that Ashley works from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We're also proud pet parents to three dogs of our own—Mylo, who is 8 years old, and Rose, who is 4 and Astro who is 3. Caring for them every day has given us firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and the love and attention dogs need to thrive. We enjoy staying active and providing walks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of affection. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, we'll follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. We believe in reliable communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. We believe pets are family. Unless requested by the owner, dogs are not kenneled and are free to relax, play, and enjoy our home just like our own dogs, Mylo, Rose and Astro. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. Ashley works from home, so pets are supervised and cared for throughout the day with plenty of attention, potty breaks, companionship, feeding, walks, and playtime. After Chantelle gets off work, we continue walks, play, and care together, making sure pets receive consistent love, structure, and attention throughout the day. We prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, pet-friendly environment. At our home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play. Pets in our care are treated like family and are never left unattended during outdoor time. We maintain a clean, comfortable space where pets can relax and feel at ease. Dog daycare is also available in our home with plenty of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day.
“Joshua took such great care of our pup, Peanut, while we were away. He made sure to communicate with us every visit, and when our pup seemed as tho she could benefit from an extra visit than we originally booked, he made sure to make time in his schedule to make it to where we could book her a mid-day visit with him for the rest of our trip. He was very thorough on his rover cards with all of the information on our pups visits with him, and made sure to send lots of photos. We really appreciate Joshua and will definitely be booking with him on the future.”
“Elizabeth is wonderful. She took very care of my cat Grayson. He was timid at first but she was able to win him over a little bit. It's obvious by her care that she loves animals, especially cats! She kept me informed of her visits and sent pictures so I knew he was doing great. I will have her take care of Grayson again and I know I won't have to worry about him!”
“Outstanding job on the drop ins. Met us ahead of time so we could show her the house and explain our preferences. She was on time and a really nice person. Great communication, took lots of pictures, and really knocked it out of the park. Can’t thank her enough.”
“Tessa thank you so much for always taking care of Benny. He loves you! We appreciate the updates and cutest pictures you send. For anyone reading this, 100% recommend Tessa. She is THE BEST.”
“Dana is prompt and checks in with us while caring for our kitties with drop-in visits. She even brought a package into our house that was left on the porch! We know our fur babies are in good hands with Dana.”
“Evan was fantastic! Super kind, detailed in her daily assessment of my cat, and left my place just as she found it. My cat really enjoyed his time with her as well!!! Super thankful for Evan!”
“After we booked Tanya for the first time, we were so impressed that we booked her for the Christmas week. We came home to an intact home and a very happy cat -- Max actually liked Tanya so much that he was doing the Tanya Meow all week and paced about looking for her. Great care and a trustworthy sitter.”
“Rachel did such an amazing job sitting for our senior cat Tinker! We felt so at ease on our vacation having her there to care for her. I love that she was able to meet with us before we left so we could introduce her to Tinker and show her around the house. She even sent us photos while we were away! We will definitely be reaching out to Rachel again for our sitting needs in the future!”

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.

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 use the 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.
