“We just completed our first week with Samantha and everything went great. Our small cockerspaniel usually can’t adapt to new people and he took to her right away. It is nice to have a trustworthy local person for our family. We would very much recommend Samantha.”
“I can’t say enough about Katharine and how she took care of our kitty. Our little kitty cat became unwell whilst we were away. Katharine swooped into action, taking care of our baby girl, taking her to the emergency vet, staying with her, and then bringing her back home. She needed to take her back to the vet as she didn’t get better and our kitty was admitted. Katharine visited her every day while we were away sent videos and pictures and kept us updated, filling in the gaps from the vet. I could not be more pleased with her attentive care and swift actions, she is a true cat whisperer! Her and my Kitty are friends for life she built a beautiful relationship with her in a time of crisis. I’d highly recommend Katharine any time you need you pet taken care of. 100% reliable, kind, compassionate, empathetic a true animal lover. We 🤍 you!”
“Marianna was incredible! Loki was so well taken care of, and she sent tons of pictures and updates. I will 100% be booking with her again and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Excellent pet carers! My Gypsy was in very good hands. Michael & Lisa are an extremely professional & passionate duo with an attention to detail. I plan to book them again without hesitation. Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets since I was little. Pets of my own, family and friends. I’ve always been dependable and so loving of animals. I’m here to give them the little bit of extra love throughout the day while the parents are away. I am available throughout most of the day! I have my own car, no problem there. I can do multiple potty breaks throughout the day if necessary! I provide pets with a happy environment. I do live in an apartments so I don’t usually care for pets in my home but I can if needed.
“Elena took amazing care of our cats while we were on vacation. She made sure to communicate frequently and gave plenty of updates. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants their fur babies in safe hands”
“Alexa took such great care of our two labs and our home while we were away, providing us with lots of updates and pictures. We will most certainly be calling her the next time we head out of town!”
“Amanda was excellent. Extremely responsive, punctual, and and provided us with frequent updates/photos. She took care of our pup while we were away via pop in visits. Everything went well. I’d highly recommend and will definitely be requesting her services in the future.”
“Brandi took care of my three pups for the day recently. She was very thorough and conscientious. My oldest dog had just had surgery so there was extra concern there about trying to keep them from playing too rough. It also involves keeping them I. Separate sleeping areas so that the other two wouldn’t lick his sutures. She handled all of this extra work very well.”
“Christiana was great. She took care of my cat Domino for a week and when I returned he was well fed and well scooped. She kept everything in order and the house and litter box was clean when I got back. I was given good feedback after every visit and she arrived exactly when she was supposed to. Highly recommended!”
“Samatha really helped us in a last minute need! She was communicative, prompt, and thorough. Unfortunately our Bonnie had an accident in her excitement to meet her new friend and she was kind enough to clean it up while we were out too. Will definitely use Samantha to help out with Bonnie anytime we need!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sayville
Great communication, kitties loved her! She handled a week of drop‑ins with no issues, and our cats were relaxed, well‑fed, and happy when we returned. She checked in regularly, followed instructions perfectly, kept the litter boxes clean and made sure to play with them during each visit so they got plenty of attention and stimulation. We felt completely at ease while we were away. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a dependable sitter.
Katlyn has been great with our two dogs! She is punctual and sends photos when the drop-in is completed. She did a great job feeding the two dogs in one of the drop-in visits and even administering medication for our puppy with allergies. Would highly recommend Katlyn!

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 .

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.
