“A quick visit ahead of our trip. It went smoothly. Meredith sent a check-in message and photo, and they watched some Bob Ross together. Wallaby seemed comfortable with her. It was a good visit to reestablish their familiarity with each other before our trip.”

“Kate took care of my fur family while I was out of town. I was often worried about them, but Kate put my mind at ease by providing me with regular check ins on how everyone was doing. Kate sent photos of my cats showing that she spent time with them. Seeing them sitting on her lap brought me so much peace. I looked forward to receiving the photos of them she sent! Thanks, Kate!”

About: I am a life-long dog owner and have personal and professional experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I have worked as a dog walker and pet sitter since 2015. I bond well with pets of all personality types and breeds. I love to get outside and walk, especially with a pup! I also have experience with cats and am happy to pet sit for any of your loved creatures! My schedule is very flexible and my primary availability is weekday mornings. Do not hesitate to reach out because I can often make things work! I like to meet your pet where they are at and work with their personality type. I can provide play time, pets, and cuddles, or keep it to a straightforward walk if your pup means business.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, from dogs and cats to even baby ducks. I’ve been pet sitting for years and love making animals feel at home. I work and study from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day. I plan walks, meals, and playtime around my schedule to give them full attention. I care for every pet like my own. I keep their environment calm, clean, and safe, follow their schedule, and make sure they always feel loved abd secure.

About: I've had dogs for over 15 years and a cat for almost 10 years and love taking care of them. I currently have 1 older cat living with me and he is very kept to himself. He's a sweet little guy who isn't bothered by other animals as long as they don't bother him! My availability is any time between classes which are scattered throughout my week. This is a small part time job I've taken for fun while going through my medical school journey so I spend most of my time studying. However, I will happily take your pet to a nice study spot! I'd also love to spend my study breaks on walks or runs with your furry baby! I am very flexible with timing and cancellations. Though I don't have professional experience, I have been around animals all my life. I'm very good at following directions and love learning new things. If the dog has special necessities, I am willing to accommodate. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a student. I often take dogs with me to quiet, dog‑friendly study spots, and I use my study breaks for walks, playtime, or runs. Because my class schedule is scattered, I’m very flexible throughout the week and can adjust care times as needed. Spending time with pets is a fun and refreshing part of my day. I care for pets by sticking closely to their regular routine and following all instructions for feeding, walks, meds, and special needs. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort through walks, playtime, or relaxed hang‑out time. In my home, I have one older cat who mostly keeps to himself and does well around other animals as long as they don’t bother him. If needed, he can be comfortably kept separate in a bedroom he’s used to. I always aim to keep things calm, clean, and stress‑free for both pets and owners.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who would love to care for your pup while you’re away. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own: an 18-month-old purebred German Shepherd and a 3-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix. They’ve given me plenty of hands-on experience with energetic, strong, playful, and sometimes stubborn dogs! I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, some extra playtime, medication, meals, bathroom breaks, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’ll do my best to keep them comfortable and stick to their normal schedule. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m able to spend substantial time with your dog throughout the day and can accommodate overnight stays when needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches of time, and I’m happy to provide the attention and companionship they’re used to. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I’ll treat both with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your dog and give them a safe, happy, and comfortable experience while you’re away! I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take dogs for walks, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and keep up with their regular feeding and bathroom schedules. I’m also available for longer stays and overnight care when needed. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pup can have plenty of companionship rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to work around each dog’s individual routine and needs. I currently do not offer boarding in my home because I have two dogs of my own. However, I’m happy to provide pet sitting in your home, where your dog can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and routine. When caring for a pet, safety and trust are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions before their stay. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.

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.
