“Adrienne was awesome! Our foster dog, Lucky absolutely loves her. On our initial visit, she was very thorough to learn all about Lucky and with setting expectations on her upcoming drop-in visits. It really set our minds at ease since this was our first pet sitting experience in some time. Adrienne provided photos and logged the activities on her visits which was also really great and made for a worry-free experience. I highly recommend her and will definitely be re-booking next time we go away.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’ve cared for all kinds of furry friends over the years — from ferrets and hamsters to cats and dogs — and I bring that same love and attention to every pet I watch. I currently have three dogs of my own (a German Shepherd and two French Bulldogs) along with two cats, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from incubating and bottle-feeding puppies to providing gentle, patient care for senior pets. Friends, family, and neighbors have consistently trusted me to care for their pets, whether for quick check-ins or longer stays. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with plenty of love, attention, and respect for their routines. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I take that responsibility seriously by providing dependable care, regular updates, and treating every pet like my own. I'm currently in college full time and work part-time weekends! So I will have plenty of time for your pet care needs! I can come before and during lunch time during weekdays. As well as a couple stops in the evening and on weekends. ! I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I have a fenced in yard, but do not currently offer in home services. That could change later with meet and greets with my own pets, but for now I'm available to come to where your pet knows best! I would love a meet and greet with your fur baby. We can discuss your pets routine in your home and have a plan of care laid out to ease your worries.
About: With over 3 years of experience, I’ve provided loving care for dogs of all ages especially senior dogs, including an 8 year old pup I’ve cared for longterm. I’m patient, reliable, and skilled in senior pet support, including understanding their unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet cuddles, I tailor care to every dog’s personality and age. As a current college student with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of free time throughout the day and week to dedicate to pet care. I plan my classes to allow for consistent availability, making it easy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and love the balance it brings to my day. You can count on me to be dependable and attentive to your pet’s needs. When pet sitting, I ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home. I follow all care instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and give them lots of attention and affection. You can trust me to treat your pet and home with the utmost care and respect.
About: My family has always had multiple dogs at home that I’ve help care for! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to dog sit and walk their dogs while at work, vacation, etc! I currently work a typical 8-5 but am available every evening and most weekends! I’m pretty flexible so I’m sure we can make something work :) I typically walk dogs, do drop in visits, and pet sit at other peoples home just because I am in an apartment with my roommate. If dog daycare/overnight stays are needed at my residence, I’m sure we can work something out with that too!

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.
