“Heather always does a great job and my sweet Luna loves her! We will have her as our pet sitter in the future again. Gives me peace of mind knowing my kitty is taken care of by someone great!”
“Courtney did a great job taking care of my dog, Roxi. She was dependable, easy to communicate with, and I could tell Roxy was well cared for while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely use Courtney again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.”
“Leticia did a great job taking care of my cat Madison. Madison is a loner and doesn't warm up to people but he trusted Leticia from the start. I loved the photos and videos that she forwarded to me. It gave me peace of mind to know that he was well cared for. I hope that Leticia will be available the next time I need to be away from home for an extended period of time.”
“It feels great knowing that Ava had my cats in excellent hands while I was away. She is very accommodating, caring, and knowledgeable. Would certainly seek her help again!”
“Jodie is wonderful!! From her initial pet meet-and-greet, to her check-ins while you’re gone, and her follow through after you return- everything is perfect! Thank you, Jodie, for going out of your way to make my fur child so happy while I’m gone! Jodie deserves more than 5 stars!”
“Was really appreciative for the pretty last minute care of Chip, and I could tell from his demeanor when I got back that he got plenty of exercise and attention! Also got such cute photos - thank you so much!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 15 years, and am an avid dog lover. I am thrilled to sign up as a pet sitter and walker and enjoy time with new friendly faces! I am currently working as a part time pet sitter/walker while moving forward in my acceptance offer to BU to pursue an online masters program. I will be available Monday-Sunday any time to care for your pets! Safety is so important! I currently carry extra dog leashes, a harness if needed, dog treats, pet corrector spray, a safety back seat dog cover in my car. I know a few local dog parks that are fenced in, quiet and safe to play too. I know CPR and am happy to continue any training or routines your family conducts.
About: As a dedicated dog walker and in-home pet sitter with over two years of experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I care for every dog (and cat!) as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs and routines. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun, and tailored walks ✅ Home visits that follow your pet’s schedule ✅ Clean water, food, meds (if needed), and lots of affection ✅ Daily photo updates and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going ✅ Respect for your home and your pet’s space I’m trained in basic pet first aid and always check collars, leashes, and gates before heading out. Whether it’s a quiet walk or an energy-burning play session, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priority. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of how flexible and rewarding it is. Since I set my own schedule, I can book pet care clients around my part-time job shifts and study blocks, which helps me stay balanced and productive. Walking dogs gives me a much-needed mental reset from screen time and studying, and it keeps me active throughout the day. It’s also a great way to supplement my income without taking on another traditional job. Most of all, spending time with animals brings me a lot of joy and motivation — it breaks up long study days and reminds me why I love what I do Whether you’re at work or away for a few days, I provide reliable, in-home care that keeps your pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and medication routines, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. 🔐 Safety & Professionalism Equipped for pet first aid always carrying a kit Detailed home-entry and security protocols Leash and harness checks before every walk Weather-conscious and always alert to potential hazards Respectful of your home, your pets, and your time 📸 Peace of Mind After each visit, you’ll receive a photo and short update so you know how your furry friend is doing — because trust is built on communication
About: As someone who lives with and manages a high-energy working breed every day, I know exactly what it takes to keep active pups properly exercised, mentally stimulated, and safe. I specialize in providing structured, loving care that respects your dog's unique routine and keeps your home peaceful and tidy while you're awaY I currently run my own company. I only work a few days a week and that leaves me plenty of time for all the pups! I provide dedicated care exclusively in your home to keep your pet safe and comfortable in their own environment. Because I have extensive personal experience managing high-energy breeds, I excel at maintaining consistent structure, following your exact training routines, and providing plenty of mental and physical exercise. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure while ensuring your pup stays happy, safe, and tired out
About: I’ve always grown up in a pet loving household with multiple pets. I’ve been not only babysitting but pet/house/farm sitting since I was 12 years old. I am very comfortable in all different environments and love to walk, run, & snuggle! I’m currently a part time pediatric nurse and have fallen in love with the Annapolis area. On my off days I am very willing to accommodate all your pet needs as early/late and as many times as needed! I have cared for pets in multiple different environments. I’ve cared for pets who have a fenced in yard and others who needed to be walked on a leash. I am comfortable with whatever your preferences are.
“Rachel G. did an outstanding job, while we were away for a week over the holiday. We loved getting the pics and video showing our surly little cat coming out from hiding and really warming up to Rachel. She was well-fed, watered and very content when we got home. Couldn't ask for more than this kind of peace of mind. Highly recommend and will rebook Rachel's services.”

I couldn't ask for a more ideal kitty- sitter than Aidan. He was very reliable & spent extra time when needed. He was a great communicator & very helpful when i was concerned my kitty might be unwell. She is a real scaredy cat, but he was able to find & befriend her easily - that can be quite a challenge! I would hope that Aidan will watch her again!
I completely trust Heather with my sweet senior rescue! I was on a longer trip than I wanted to be due to a family commitment, and only was going to do the trip if i didn’t have to board him. Although a friend was able to housesit with him at night, she works full-time. Heather came to the rescue and did three check-ins each day for four days straight (walks and feedings)! She is so affectionate with him, and he just loves her. Knowing Heather was checking in on him kept me from being completely distraught! She also was so patient and understanding when I had an issue with my lockbox, and we had to temporarily pivot to another solution. Heather is a pet sitter extraordinaire!
Jazmin has been wonderful!! We are so blessed to have her watch our fur babies. She was always on time, sent at least 10 photos and our pups loved her. She was very conscientious about them eating and even giving them snacks. This was our first time having Jazmin at our home but we will certainly use her services again!!!!
Courtney did an amazing job of taking care of my cat while I was on vacation. Food, water, and litter were good to go the whole time. She even got him to come out of hiding and play around, sending multiple pictures for peace of mind. Overall 5/5, completely hassle free, if I need a pet sitter again she’ll be the first I ask.
Stacie was great and I’d absolutely book with her again. She was flexible, communicative, and clearly took great care of my cats while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled, kept me updated, and gave me real peace of mind during my trip. It was obvious from the updates and from how my cats acted afterward that they were comfortable with her and well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail and the care she put into everything. Highly recommend.
Caitlyn has been wonderful with our dog, Hobo. She was flexible and added in extra walks when we called from vacation and needed it. Her visits have always been lengthy with lots of exercise and playtime, and she was willing to come early mornings and late at night. She sent lots of pictures and it was clear that Hobo was having a great time with her. Caitlyn definitely went above and beyond and I would recommend her 100%.

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.
