“Jessica is great! Prompt communication, professional, and friendly. We appreciated that she arranged to meet us and our cats before booking. We are already planning to ask for her help again for future trips out of town”
“This was our first experience using Rover.com, and we couldn't have been happier! Our sitter, Elaine, is terrific! Not only did she capture amazing pictures of our two Bengal cats, she even managed to win over Shiloh, who normally runs and hides under the bed whenever a stranger comes into our home. My husband and I could hardly believe our eyes when we watched the video of Shiloh letting Elaine pet her. It was nice, too, to come home to a clean and tidy area where the food dishes are as our cats always like dropping their food on the floor before eating. I highly recommend Elaine.”
“Phenomenal and absolutely caring. My cat looovvved Terri. Terri's care and communication made me feel completely at ease. Her passion for animals goes way beyond. Would absolutely hire again.”
About: I've owned cats my entire life, as well as rabbits, hermit crabs, and a pug when I was younger. I am most experienced with cats, whether it be kittens, senior cats, and everything in between! I am a college student on summer break, so my schedule is very open! I am free on weekdays and weekends at any time during the day. I am willing to take same-day requests if available. I've taken care of cats for years, so I and can socialize with them, feed them, clean litter, and more! I am happy to bring cat toys, grooming brushes, and treats as needed.
About: Hi! I’m Tarron — lifelong animal lover, rescue director, and experienced handler with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs and many other animals including cats, ducks, goats, bunnies. I’m the Executive Director of a nonprofit animal rescue and have extensive experience with: * rescue and anxious dogs * senior dogs * puppies * medication administration * decompression and slow introductions * leash handling and structured walks * dogs recovering from surgery/injury * reactive or fearful dogs I understand that every dog is different and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and making dogs feel comfortable and secure. Because I have animals of my own and run a rescue, I currently focus on: * drop-in visits * dog walking * medication visits * structured enrichment walks * pet transport/help with vet visits I’m especially comfortable with dogs that may need a little extra understanding or experience beyond a typical pet sitter/walker. Reliable, communicative, calm, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I currently work as a program manger for adults with special needs, and manage a small team of individuals. Mornings and evening are best. As well as Tuesdays, and weekends. I do not provide pet care in my own home at this time, but I will gladly come to yours and spend time with your fur babies!
“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”
About: I have been an avid dog lover my whole life I wouldn't know what to do without one. I am now retired and I thought what better way to spend my time than to hang out with my favorite 4 legged people. I am actively involved with several pet rescue organizations and would feed my dogs before I would eat I am retired so I'm available pretty much anytime you need me. If you need someone to take your fur baby for a walk or to drop in and say hi and play with them for a while I'm your guy I have 2 dogs 1 pug and 1 chi-weenie they have a fenced in area that is also covered to keep them out of the sun and rain
About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years or so by myself. Growing up my parents watched dogs for friends and family every so often. We also had a border collie mix of our own for 15 years and I was responsible for taking care of him. I currently work M-Th; 9am-5pm but fairly free before or after work for walks and playtime. I tend to get up early on work days but a night owl on the weekends. I enjoy getting out on the weekends like going on walks with hikes. I currently do not have fenced in hard but I do have a large grass area right outside my house that is dog friendly and is great for playtime and even doggie pool time.
About: I have always loved animals since I was little and have had various furry friends throughout my life. I have cared for dogs from miniature Poodles to German Shepherds; each animal has their own unique personality and I look forward to meeting them all. I have embraced retirement, so I have lots of time to spend with your furry family. From walking your neighborhood, exploring various trails, or just play time at the park or home, I will give your pet the love and attention I would my own pets. I currently have two cats, who are indoor only. They are played with daily, although half the time they just sleep in the sun. My current home project is to build them a catio so they can sleep there too. July 2026 added two more cats and another cat tower. 😊
“Cassidy was great! We had a last minute trip ro take care of some family things and she stepped up and took care off our fur baby on little notice. At one point she couldn’t find the food and couldn’t get a hold of us but she took care of things and made it work. It made me feel like Cassidy would be the one you wanted in an emergency with your fur baby. Thanks Cassidy!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. My very first pet was my childhood cat, who I got when I was 2 years old and who lived with me for 17 wonderful years before crossing the rainbow bridge. I’ve always had a special connection with animals and a passion for caring for them. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and more. I currently have two Dobermans and a kitty of my own. I recently moved to a 2 acre property, which has been amazing for training and working with my dogs, they’re truly thriving with the space and lifestyle they deserve. To me, pets are family, and I always strive to give them the best care, attention, and love possible. I’ve also rescued and fostered kittens in need, helping them find safe and loving forever homes. Caring for animals genuinely brings me happiness, and having them in my life has always been incredibly fulfilling. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I already care for my own animals every day. At my home, pets have access to a large, secure fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. I also have spacious fenced in kennels available if needed for safety, rest time, or individual comfort. Pets are always supervised, given plenty of attention, and cared for in a clean, calm environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routines, instructions, and house rules to help pets feel comfortable and stress free in their familiar environment. I like to check in with pet parents often, sending pictures and updates to give them peace of mind while their pets are in my care.
About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom of two little ones and a big animal lover. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I have about 10 years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. I’ve provided in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that pets are family members, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. Since I’m home most of the day with my kids, I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Whether your pet needs a walk, a quick check-in, or loving company while you’re gone, I’d be happy to help. I’m also looking to earn a little extra income for my family, and there’s no better way to do that than by spending time with furry friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Since I’m a stay-at-home mom with my little ones, I have a very flexible schedule and am often available throughout the day. In some cases, my children may come with me for drop-in visits or certain pet care tasks. They are gentle, respectful around animals, and have grown up around pets themselves, so they are very comfortable and calm with them. Our family loves animals, and we always treat every pet with kindness, patience, and care. When caring for pets, I always do my best to follow the routine and preferences discussed with their owner. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I aim to keep their feeding times, walks, playtime, and general care as close to their normal schedule as possible. My goal is to help them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs, fish, and especially cats! I have training from the SPCA on dog walking, cat care, and some skill/behavioral training for both cats and dogs. I have 3 years of fish keeping experience. I currently have my own cat (he’s orange!) and I am fostering a mother and her kitten for the time being. I am willing to help clean around the house as well! I have indoor/outdoor plants and I can take care of your plants while you are away - I have a green thumb :) I’ve helped friends and clients with farm animals, including feeding and cleaning their spaces. If directed I can help with other farm projects. I am looking to take on as many hours as possible! I am currently in college, but only have classes Monday and Wednesday and can work around my school schedule. I am unable to bring pets home due to having my own cat and living in an apartment with a single pet deposit! But I am just fine coming to you! I offer dog walking, some behavioral training while pet sitting/walking, in home pet sitting, and I can do small cleaning projects for a minimal extra charge. I am gentle with the animals and can do grooming such as brushing and can try nail clipping if your pets allow it!
About: Hi! I'm a college graduate with a bachelor's degree in Kinesiology, a former Division I athlete, and an experienced dog and house sitter. I've cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs who need extra patience, medication reminders, slower walks, and individualized attention. What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and active lifestyle. As a former student-athlete, I'm extremely dependable and understand the importance of consistency and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm, comforting environment, I tailor my care to their specific needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident while you're away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and stress-free in your absence. I currently work part-time during the week and have weekends completely free, allowing me plenty of flexibility to care for pets. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, or overnight stays, I can provide reliable and attentive care while maintaining your pet's normal routine. As a former Division I athlete, I am dependable, responsible, and committed to giving every pet the attention they deserve. I understand that pets are most comfortable in their own home, so I strive to maintain their regular routine and provide personalized care based on their needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddle time, or extra attention for senior pets, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I also provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind.

“Mia is amazing! She did drop in visits for a few days while we were out of town and Uko felt very comfortable and enjoyed her company. She has high attention to detail and was very respectful of our home. We can tell she really cares about what she does, and will definitely be asking Mia to look after Uko in the future!”
About: Im so excited to be working for you! What a treat to be able to love on your beautiful babies! I enjoy pet sitting so much because just like people, animals have their own personalities and it’s really neat for me to discover them in all the little fur friends I get to meet. I am good natured and loving and your pet will notice that right off the bat. I’m caring and compassionate and you won’t have to worry about your babies while I am there. I enjoy overnight stays because I know it’s important for them to be “at home”. It’s easy for me to feel at home wherever I go! I have a kitty and he stays home and is very content with that. He is a super friendly 15 lb MainCoon that has a very sweet personality. He’s always up for belly rubs. He does not accompany me on any of my stays or visits. I have several families that aren’t on rover that I just love so much. So their reviews aren’t on here. But if you need references, please let me know. I’m grateful for the opportunity to hang out with your fur family and know that you can rest easy knowing they are in good hands, I am open to visits and check ins or even long weekends or vacations. It would be great to come to you. Take a vacation and relax knowing your home and sweet babies are being lovingly cared for. Unfortunately I am unable to board any pets at this time. I don’t have the needed space to accommodate them. Thank you so very much!

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 .

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.
