“Thanks so much for taking Luna for a couple of walks today on such short notice. It was peace of mind knowing you showed up for her. She loves you guys!”
“It was such a relief to know Rachel was stopping by twice a day to check on my cat. It was my first time leaving him and I felt really bad. This was very helpful. I will definitely reach out again whenever I need to leave town in the future.”
“The absolute best! It was our first time having someone come over to watch our dog and Lindsey handled everything so well. She followed my (long list) of instructions with ease and my dog absolutely adored her!!! She even stopped by an extra time just because she knew he’d be home for a few more hours alone. I was so nervous to leave him but Lindsey exceeded my expectations and I will absolutely be using her again!”
“We are so grateful to have found Calandra! She goes above and beyond for our senior pup, Stella & particularly for this last booking - helped us out in a pinch when I went I was admitted to the hospital unexpectedly to have our baby! Stella loves her & we appreciate how loving & trustworthy Calandra is!”
“Patti is incredible!! She is attentive and detail-oriented, which is important when you have an older cat who needs insulin injections and other medication. She is so caring and warm, our girl loved her immediately! We appreciated her thoughtful notes and photos at every visit, and were thrilled to come home after a long travel day and find homemade treats waiting for us! Patti truly goes above and beyond - we are so grateful to have found her.”
“We are so happy to have found Madison! From our initial meet and greet, it was clear that she is timely, asks great questions, is diligent, and is an animal lover at heart. She dropped in while we were away for a wedding in the city, and everything went seamlessly. She followed all of our instructions, and when we returned, it was obvious that our dog and cat had been well cared for. We will absolutely be reaching out to Madison again!”
“Laura did a great job checking in on our 4 cats while we were out of town for our wedding. Having her excellent communication, report cards and photos really put us at ease knowing our kitties were happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much Laura!!”

Giseli is so easy to work with and very thoughtful about communication and her care of Zuli. My dog is quite the playful/spunky one - and she enjoys his antics. I have been happy to be able to schedule with her both last minute and a few weeks out. I highly recommend Giseli for your pet care!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Scituate stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
