“Autumne was the best with our dog- especially over the 4th when he needed the extra attention! Checked in every time and sent updates each day. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”
About: I’ve been a dog/cat lover since as long as I can remember. I’ve always had my own dog growing up and still do, (and a kitty)! I’ve worked at multiple dog and cat boarding/animal facilities. I grew up on a farm and I’m very comfortable with large animals and all types of dogs. Me and animals go together like peas and carrots! I’ll take care of yours pets like they’re my own. I’m currently a stay at home wife with plenty of time on my hands. My husband travels for work so to stay busy and sane, you’ll find me doing fun side gigs, making fun day in the life social media and being outside. My schedule is very flexible and I don’t mind early days or late nights! Whatever it is your pet needs I’ll do just that. I’m happy with special need pets as well. I follow directions well and I would be happy to update you on anything throughout my stay/visit.
About: Lifelong pet owner with 2 years professional experience as a Veterinary Technician and 3 years working in boarding kennels. Experience includes dogs, cats, horses, reptiles and rodents! I have experience with long term petsitting and geriatric pet care and medication administration, as well as emergency response. I have raised a few dogs and cats (and a horse) of my own and have cared for newborn puppies and kittens and medically sensitive pets. Morning and night feeding schedules are no problem, as well as three times a day medication administration if needed. Dogs who love walks and hikes are always great for me, as I have plenty of time to get out in neighborhoods or longer hikes in the mountains if applicable. I am happy to have dogs off leash in hiking environments once trust is established, if applicable. I am happy to give pets as much attention as needed, including take dogs out on walks or car rides. I am also happy with staying with them overnight if needed. I have experience with handling larger more energetic breeds as well as those who are aggressive and/or territorial. I enjoy caring for social cats who enjoy human contact and need company, but am happy to leave them to their independence if they desire. I have dealt with a variety of emergencies both working at a veterinary clinic and caring for elderly and sensitive pets, and am trained in recognizing concerning health issues in dogs and cats. My cat is my best friend in the world and I do everything I can to make sure she is happy and healthy, so I understand when others always want the best care possible for the animals in their life.
“Carmen is incredible! We have two reactive dogs and two cats and Carmen handled all of their idiosyncrasies with creativity and grace. In part, this involved getting daily medication into a dog who doesn’t come anywhere near strangers, as well as making sure she went out for potty breaks (which can also be a struggle with her). Carmen truly went above and beyond in numerous ways and I just can’t recommend her strongly enough!”
About: I have taken care of many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I have done much Cat sitting. I have also taken care of Birds and Reptiles I am conscientious, reliable, communicative and trustworthy. Your pet will be safe with me. When in my care they are top priority. Caring for your pet/s is my full time duty. Your pet is the utmost importance of safety, love ,comfort and I will follow your instructions precisely, in order to keep your pet happy and content.
About: Born and raised among the pack lol I’ve had critters ever since I can remember. We’ve always had dogs-multiple at a time-as well as cats and horses. I’ve given shots, administered meds, clipped claws, cleaned litter boxes, dog kennels, stalls and everything in between. I absolutely adore critters, so you can put your mind to rest knowing your fur babies will be treated as if they were my own. I own my own business so my hours are very flexible and I can move them accordingly! I can be around your critters 100% of the time, giving around the clock love, scratches, and adventure. I have a fenced kennel with access to go inside the garage and get out of the elements, as well as a adventurous spirit to go run or walk on the trails, throw a ball, or just give lots of cuddles and love. Really it’s all dependent on what each individual fur baby needs.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and my love for animals has not diminished as I’ve grown up. I’ve taken care of senior dogs and tiny puppies alike, and family has always relied on me to care for their animals. I am a teacher on summer break, so I have lots of time to help out! My schedule is generally open and can be modified to accommodate needs. While I don’t offer in-home boarding because I live in an apartment, I will travel to wherever you are and can either stay there if needed or drop in frequently. Whatever works for you!
“Abigail was very helpful in watching my cat while I was gone for a week. She was very communicative & did all tasks asked of her :) she gave my cat lots of love and he was happy & healthy when I returned. Thanks Abigail!”
About: I have cared for many types of dogs, big to small, young to old. One of my more recent clients had a big Labradoodle, who was a rescue and very skittish. I got along with Zooey right away, and we had some fun walks and runs. I love playing catch and tug-war with dogs as well. I myself am very energetic so I know how good it feels to get out in the fresh air and stretch your legs. I love dogs and cats, they are so full of love and I can't help but love them back. Since I have cared for many pets I know how to read them and give them space, pets and food when they need it. I have a cat of my own and know all the silly ways cats communicate.
About: Every since I was young I have been taking care of my own pets and neighbors and friends’ pets. I have experience with all types of care. I am working full time but hybrid. So I am at home frequently/available to be at someone’s home to take care of pets. I go on walks everyday. Giving pets lots of attention and love. Frequent walks and making sure they are fed and hydrated. Animals are a huge part of my life!
About: Hi! I'm a masters student studying animal-assisted therapy. I have loved and cared for animals my entire life, and have privately provided training, in-home care, rehabilitation/medical care and exercise for the last 10+ years. I use the best, most ethically minded and researched methods out there and am comfortable with four legged friends of any ages. All money made through this gig goes towards my education and research into animal therapy (for humans). Happy to be in trainer mode or just hang with your buddies! I'm currently working part time remotely and can work with your schedule. Same day booking is great! Repeat clients are also awesome. Just ask and we can work something out! Please feel free to let me know your house rules and expectations, I'm just here to work with you and make your life easier :)
About: Growing up we had 3 large dogs. Two of which were raised from puppies. I loved them with all my heart. Nate had many medical issues and we would have to make sure he had his medicine so I know how important and hard that can be. Sam was a very large breed and as he got older his hips weren’t as sturdy. We would walk him while supporting his back legs as the grew weaker. I understand aging dogs and how to watch out for their health. I am also a photographer for dog sled racing. I have helped many racers herd their dogs into formation and back to their kennels. I love working dogs and larger breeds. I enjoy tanking photos of dogs while they work or doing what they love. I am a freelance photographer, videographer, and marketer so I make my own schedule. I am available at almost anytime throughout the week. Most of my meetings are held on zoom so I seldom need to be somewhere other than a place with WiFi. I enjoy taking walks and playing fetch. I do not believe in off leash exercise as I don’t trust other dogs and dog owners. I enjoy playing tug and enriching experiences making dogs use their sense of smell and practice their manners and training.

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.
