“Aimee is the best, and takes such good care of our boy Onyx. She has so much patience with him because he is a high energy pit. He is always so excited to see her. She is extremely dependable and is always willing to fit us into her schedule. We’ve had her as our pet sitter for 2 years, and wouldn’t use anyone else.”
“Corin was great to work with and I really enjoyed the peace of mind she provided with pictures and updates after every drop in. We will definitely book Corin again!”
“Katherine did an amazing job caring for my cats while I was on vacation! She arrived on time, cleaned their litter box, and fed them while I was away. I was especially impressed when she entered my house and took her shoes off without me asking her to! We are a family who leaves our outside shoes at the door! I will they’re definitely use her again in the future.”
About: Hello my name is Gabi and I have been around at least one family dog my whole life usually 2-3! I love animals and stay very active by running at least 3 times a week and walking at least once a day. My home has plenty of room for the dogs to play and an unfenced but large backyard! I live in walking distance to the green belt with lots of trails to walk and the lake for dogs to swim. I work in Carrollton some days I am home all day some days I have to run check on projects. Either way after 4 I can spend the rest of the evening with the dogs! i can't wait to meet your furry friends! I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your dogs! I mostly work from home but have to go check on job sites occasionally. I can’t wait to get to know your dogs! I have a spacious home with an unfenced back yard for them to play in! Dogs are always allowed to sleep in the bed and on the couch! I live very close to the green belt with lots of trails!
“Charity is highly responsible. She ensured my cat was visited and fed every day within the timeline I preferred. It is a great relief to not have to worry about anything while away. She ensured my cat was well taken care of. Thank you Charity!”
About: I have owned dogs for as long as i can remember and have done pet sitting for anything from dogs and cats to pigs and horses. I have worked in animal rescues and in doggy day cares, i have plenty of experience walking dogs, playing with and exercising the animals, and administering medications. I also have plenty of experience with dogs over 100lbs and with dogs that are reactive. I am currently working full time as a caregiver, but I will make sure I have plenty of time to be with your pets and make sure they get plenty of cuddle and play time. I will be able to sit outside with your dogs while they're in a fenced in yard, or if walks are needed for potty breaks i can make sure collars or harnesses are well fit and avoid letting people and other animals approach your pup on a walk. I will avoid opening windows fully, or opening windows at all if there are no screens, and keep all doors locked.
About: What makes me different is that my experience isn’t just from watching dogs—it comes from truly caring for my own over many years. I went through the full journey of raising a puppy into her senior years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and deep respect for animals’ needs. Since then, I’ve felt naturally drawn to caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I currently have full availability after returning from college, which allows me to focus on pet care as a priority. I am flexible with scheduling and can provide care throughout the day, including mornings, evenings, and overnight stays when needed. I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while keeping pets on their usual feeding, walking, and play schedule. I pay close attention to instructions and details provided by the owner so each pet receives consistent, personalized care. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they are supervised and given plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I make sure they have fresh water, proper feeding times, and a stress-free space to relax. My goal is always to treat every pet like my own and ensure they feel secure and well cared for at all times.

About: I’m here to help! I’ve worked with dogs from puppies to seniors. But also worked with dogs with behavioral problems and overall shy dogs. Also have trained a few dogs as well! I’m always available on weekends but on week days I’m free after 4:30pm to walk and check up on any of your pets! And if it’s in the only on week days it would be anytime before 8:30am. I’m huge into following directions and having good communication with my clients. Making sure I know if there’s any triggers or problems your pets have before service.
“For me using Rover for the first time, I was pretty nervous about having someone else watch my dog. However, Colleen made it very easy to communicate and setup a good system for my dog. With her having a half hour per visit, I can tell she filled that time productively, and gave Maggie the positive energy she needed while I was gone. Colleen also sends photos confirming that Maggie ate or walked, and that allowed me to still see Maggie in action. I’m very happy with her service and how easy she was able to pull it off for Maggie.”
“Dana was amazing from the time of our meet and greet and even better on the dates she took care of of our fur buddy, Cody. Dana was super friendly, pleasant, and punctual— I could set my clock by her and we felt so relieved, comfortable and confident in our choice. I don’t want to brag on her too much, as I am sure she would be too busy for us😉. We will definitely use her again and we look forward to it! Thanks Dana!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life, I got my own dog when I was in elementary school and he still means the world to me this day. I always took the initiative to care for my pets growing up and that’s carried into my adult life as well. I think expressing love to animals is so important because we’re all they have. I have a dog myself and he is my world. Your fur babes deserve all the love in the world and I’d love to give it to them! I have many years of experience caring for dogs and I’m very confident in the care I can provide! Having my sweet pup Smokey means the most to me and I’m so happy to be a full time dog mom ❤️ I hope to be the perfect fit as a sitter for you! I am a full time stay at home wife/dog mom. I have nothing but time on my hands and would love to share it with you and your pet(s)! I do not currently offer services in my home due to the lack of space. However, I would love to care for your pets in your home!
About: I have been around animal care since I was born. I have six dogs of my own, ranging from a Husky all the way down to a Maltese. I have a real passion for animals and love to take care of them. I often help out with neighbors and friends to pet sit while out of town or for a quick potty break if needed. I’m currently starting my Master’s program in August with university of west Georgia. Outside of my classes, I have free time that does not always allow for a full time job, but just enough for pet sitting. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and daily routines to help your pet feel secure while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, keep doors and gates securely closed, use leashes on all walks unless you’ve instructed otherwise in a secure area, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind.
About: I have been caring for dogs of all sizes, genders, types, and colors since day one. Whether it is a family member, friend, or a new acquaintance, I am always ready and willing to love on a good puppers. I love every dog I meet and enjoy experiencing each and every different personality that comes along. While I am not at a place in life to have my own dog, I want to take every opportunity to feed my pupper fever. I am part time with a lot of flexibility in my days. I have some commitments that are generally consisteng but I am able to arrange my schedule if I know about needs before the weeks starts. I will respect any needs of your personal space and make sure to clean up if there are any accidents or problems. I like to know where any cleaning supplies are so that I can do this properly.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
