“Elena was a patient and kind sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure my very shy cat Lizzy got her medicine twice daily. She was communicative and I really appreciated the recaps and pictures each visit. Would recommend her for anyone who needs a cat sitter.”
“Couldn’t recommend Elizabeth enough! She was watched my dog and 2 cats while I traveled internationally. She was incredibly accommodating and communicative. This was our first time leaving our dog for so long and she did a wonderful job of making him feel comfortable and relaxed. One of my cats also is usually incredibly shy around strangers and Elizabeth is the only sitter I’ve used from Rover who he comes out for. Our flight got delayed and Elizabeth was very accommodating to the change in the schedule. We are so appreciative!”
“An amazing sitter! She took her time making sure the litter boxes were cleaned and the cats were all accounted for. My wife and I were able to unwind from our trip without a worry thanks to Danielle!”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Now, as a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pup when you can’t be there. I work in the medical field, so I’m very attentive, dependable, and comfortable following specific instructions and routines. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also understand that every dog has their own personality, and I’m comfortable giving shy or more cautious dogs the time and patience they need to warm up. I’ll care for your pup the same way I’d want someone to care for mine and will always send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing. I typically work about three days a week, which gives me flexibility on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’ll also have much more open availability from late November through mid-January. I’ll care for your pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and stick closely to their normal routine. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“Deedee is awesome! She took great care of our cat Rupi. She took a ton of awesome pictures which were really lovely to have when we were missing Rupi on our trip! She also was patient with Rupi even though Rupi is very shy. And she left the cutest notes after every visit. Thank you so much!”
“Meghan was amazing with Smokie, even though he did not come out to play with her, I was still able to monitor him throughout the day. I definitely feel comfortable rebooking with Meghan.”
“Cameron was wonderfull. She was very professional and I could tell she loves animals. I didn't have to worry, she sent updates and photos every day. I would love to use her again ! Thank you 😊”
“Remington took wonderful care of my dog and cat while I was away, and I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals. He provided lots of photos and summaries. I really appreciated the updates because they gave me peace of mind throughout my trip and I’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Kamron was awesome with our dog and friends dog that was staying over. We asked for a last minute drop in and Kamron came through! He left great feedback. It was such a relief having someone we could trust to check on them. He was super quick to respond. He also paid attention to detail and took great care in what we needed. We will use him again for sure! Above and beyond, excellent experience.”
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from playful Bichons to energetic Labradors, I'm confident your dog will have a safe and happy walk with me. I'm patient, flexible, and have a knack for spotting potential health concerns—plus, I have yet to meet a dog that doesn't become my instant best friend! Your dog's safety and happiness are my top priority, and I’ll make sure they get the fun, tail-wagging adventure they deserve. Open availability every week, to include weekends and some holidays. I’m super flexible, including last minute scheduling if needed. I understand life can get hectic and busy, let me calm your situation. I have a well kept home, free of any safety concerns. A very clean and clutter free back and front yard for furry friends to Zoom, run jog or roll around!
“Sarah is amazing; especially during this heat wave. She takes time to ensure all needs are met while allowing sufficient time to hydrate and cool down. I cannot recommend Sarah enough. She truly is one of a kind.”

Danielle took exceptional care of Theo!! He is often slow to warm up to new sitters, but by the second visit it was clear that he really liked her. She provided insightful messages on Theo each day and I had peace of mind knowing she was checking in on him. I would absolutely book her again and you should too!
Kailyn was such a great sitter for my cat! She did drop in visits while I was away for about a week and sent regular updates :) I know she was great company for my cat and I appreciated how responsible and on top of everything she was! I will definitely be booking Kailyn again to care for my cat!
Elisabeth did a fantastic job with our three pups. She followed all directions and made the whole process worry free. She has a great calming energy, which even put our shyest pup at ease during our initial meet and greet. We feel lucky to have found such a gem and look forward to using her again in the future.
We had a great experience! Our boy has some anxiety and can take a little while to warm up to new people, so we appreciated how patient and understanding she was. She came by for a meet and greet beforehand and took the time to let him get comfortable at his own pace. She was great with him during their first hangout, and we feel comfortable having her for future drop in visits!

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.
