“Carla was exceptional with my 2 cats for drop in visits. She is very thorough and communicative. One of my cats takes oral medication and she was able to successfully administer it every day! The cats looked very happy and content in every photo update she provided.”
“She was so wonderful watching our cat, Cheddar and letting us know if packages arrived. She made sure our house was secure and that Cheddar was well loved while we were gone!”
“Great cat sitter! This was my second time hiring Katelynn and she was as excellent as before. My cats knocked over a glass container full of food and she had no problem cleaning up the glass and the floor, even though it took longer than her scheduled visit time. I really appreciate everything she did!”
“When I met Shelly, and after I spoke with her I knew she was the right person to care for my cats She is a cat lover too and I felt safe in letting her care for my pets She notified me every day when she was with them And took pictures to let me know how they were reacting to her on a day by day basis which I really appreciated it certainly eased my mind about leaving them in someone else's care, for the first time I can honestly say I can recommend Shelly if you Want a caring, understanding caretaker for your pets. I will ask for her help again, in the future when I need it and hope she will be available I can't thank her enough for the attention she gave my pets Everything was in good order when I came home and I appreciate that too Shelly asks questions and makes sure she gets all the information she needed SF”
About: I love animals. In my free time I volunteer for charity events benefiting children and animals. I am a photographer and I donate photography to local rescues to photograph their babies for adoption! I am a lifetime founder/member of the Brevard Zoo (my family helped build it). I worked in pet retail environments for 8+ years with local shop owners and worked in a vet clinic for 1 year. *I also offer photography services for animals while I care for them* I have had everything from a fish to a Great Dane. My childhood home was filled with animals of every kind, some even in the zoo! I am responsible and capable. I respect the owners wishes for their pet, whether that is a strict training visit or a rough and tumble cuddling session. M-Th (not including holidays) I work 6 hour days (it is possible for me to do midday breaks if arranged ahead or to work from home). Fri-Sunday I am not working! At my home I have a fenced yard and a lovely neighborhood with LOTS of sidewalks and a small park. I love going on trips with pups if the parent's okay it! Puppy parks, walks in parks, adventures into town you name it! I'm always respectful of the owner's rules - if they want "strict parenting" I've got you! If they want cuddles and treats I've got you!
“Aspyn continued to do a perfect job watching and walking my dachshund. She always keeps things interesting for the pup by mixing up games and activities. Highly recommend Aspyn, she has watched Hildy multiple times over the past year.”
“Wonderful service from an incredibly sweet sitter. The photos were great and Katie took the time to play with them inside and outside. She medicated my older dog every day and kept me posted on the emotionally needy cat. I know the babies enjoyed themselves!”
“I was very grateful when Natalie came back to New York and was able to be with my fur children again. She is always very attentive and the baby is adore her. Thank you so much!”
“Nicole has been the best care taker for our cat. She has went above and beyond for Pousecil over the last week and have been very flexible. We highly recommend Nicole for your next Rover service.”
“Hailey was such an amazing pet sitter! Arrived on time with a smile on her face and eager to go! Rocky liked her right from tge get go - and the second day she came he was so happy to see her he was “crying”! So sweet! Thanks Hailey for letting us explore Cocoa Beach! You rock!!”
“Diana is an incredibly kind a warm spirit who took fabulous care of our two dogs. A consummate professional and very respectful. I do not hesitate to recommend her for your needs as well and will undoubtedly look to her again for ours. Thank you again Diana!”
About: Hi, I’m Sophia! I’m 22 and I’m looking for dog walking/sitting opportunities. I have years of experience caring for my own animals and family/friends pets. I have experience with all types of breeds and sizes. I have three years paid experience pet sitting and previously worked as a kennel tech. I would be able to provide pet sitting whether it be check-ins to play with or feed your pet, or overnight boarding as well as walking. I have two dogs who are very friendly and love playing with other dogs as well as a backyard for ur pup to play in! Thank you so much for your consideration and I hope to hear back from you! I am a full time student at UH, but only go to campus two days a week, so I am home basically all the time! I have a fenced backyard and two very friendly dogs who love to play! One is a chihuahua and the other… I’m not sure. I found her about a year ago as a stray but she is a very calm and polite dog.
About: Hi! I’m Meagan! I’m 27 years old and currently finishing my bachelor’s degree in Interior Design. I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up loving and caring for animals. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and definitely the type of person who treats pets like part of the family. I have four pets of my own, two dogs and two cats, so taking care of animals is already a big part of my everyday life. My pets are all very friendly, well-behaved, and get along great with each other. I understand that every animal has a different personality, though, and some pets need a little more space or time to feel comfortable. If your dog doesn’t tolerate cats, that’s completely okay! My cats can stay in a separate area in the back part of my house that can be closed off from the dogs. The same goes for pets that may just need their own space. I want every animal staying with me to feel safe and comfortable. Since I’m a pet owner myself, I also understand how nerve racking it can be to leave your pets with someone else. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and of course lots of attention and cuddles! I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. Outside of caring for my animals, I’m creative and love interior design, being active, and spending time at home with my pets. I’m currently in my final semester of college, so pet sitting is something that fits naturally into my schedule and gives me the opportunity to do something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pet is energetic and wants to play, loves going for walks, or would rather curl up and relax, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re having their own little home away from home while you have peace of mind knowing they’re being loved and cared for. 🐾🤍 I’m currently finishing my last semester of college, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m able to plan my days around pet care and can accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I also have pets of my own, so caring for animals is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I have two friendly, well-behaved dogs and two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. My pets are used to being around one another and are very friendly. If your pet isn’t comfortable around cats, my cats can stay in a separate, closed-off area of the house. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, boundaries, and any special care needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“My Yorkie is a rescue and he has stress/anxiety and separation issues. I had him only a few months when I began having Sarilyne coming to my house while I was working. Sarilyne was able to establish trust and security to my dog immediately. She is a very sweet, kind and patient and punctual person who I trust to come into my home to care for dog.”
About: I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient with shy or nervous animals and I don’t believe in rushing them. I’m dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible, and send photos and updates during visits so you know they’re happy and cared for. I also love getting to know animals on their terms—whether that means an energetic walk with a dog, playtime with a cat, or simply sitting nearby and keeping a nervous pet company. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work a full time job with your typical 9-5 but I still have availability for the following, Weekdays: Before work + evenings 6AM - 8AM & 5:30PM - 8PM Weekends: Flexible availability Holidays: Limited availability I genuinely love the compassion and unconditional love animals give, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every pet like my own while also respecting their individual personality, routine, and boundaries. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats, including my senior cat who is my little best friend and very spoiled. I’m comfortable with shy, nervous, clingy, senior, and medicated pets, and I always prefer a meet-and-greet to make sure we’re a good fit. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, love giving pets attention and playtime, and will always keep their owners updated with pictures and communication. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel cared for and for you to feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I'm a certified veterinary technician and have worked in veterinary medicine for almost 20 years. I have dogs and cats of my own and have done pet-sitting since 2009. I'm available daily for drop-in visits and walks. Taking excellent care of pets is my top priority and I provide each of them the time and attention they deserve as beloved family members. I am attentive and detail-oriented, always paying close attention to possible risks in the home that could pose a danger to your pet. I am careful of doors, cleaning products, accessible food and medications, etc.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sharpes
Bethany is absolutely wonderful! We’ve used her many times and always feel completely comfortable having her care for our pets. This time we added two kittens to the mix, and she was amazing about adding them into the routine. She was patient with them as they warmed up and made sure everyone was happy and cared for. She is dependable, caring, and truly treats our pets like her own. We always feel so much better knowing Bethany is taking care of everyone while we’re away!
I can’t say enough how awesome this experience was for our pups. And what a life saver Samantha was! She provided a great report and even took some pictures during the visits. We would highly recommend her and we’ll definitely ask her to come back in the future.
Breanna was friendly and personable when we met and she took great care of my cats while I was away for a weekend. Breanna went above and beyond to prepare canned food for them every/most evenings and swept the areas after. I would confidently book Breanna for any future pet-sitting needs!

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
