“Thank you, Tylyn! So happy Stella was safe and happy with you during my class. Tylyn responded quickly and accommodated my last minute booking. Received status pics during the day which I always appreciate. Highly recommend!!”
“Holly has been an amazing sitter for our Goldendoodle. Our dog tends to be high-strung but she is totally relaxed with Holly and enjoys going on walks. It didn't take our dog long to feel comfortable with Holly. We are really happy with her service.”
“This is our first time using Rover and Danielle was great! We set up a meet and greet, which was super important as our Nala is a senior-pup and can be picky. Danielle was flexible the whole way through. Our plans changed during the day, and we needed to update our pick-up time - No Problem! Nala came home happy and looked like she'd had fun. Danielle even sent us some great pictures from Nala's stay. Would definitely book with Danielle again!”
“Forest provided doggy daycare for our dog for a week. It was a stressful week for us with moving to a new home and having Forest take care of our dog set our minds at ease. He took her on long walks on trails and she had a blast! This city dog got to see cows for the first time! Forest is very kind and we definitely will reach out to him again in the future about taking care of Maeve.”
“Jessica was great! She took our dog in last minute for the day and sent us updates throughout the time. The backyard was huge and had plenty of space for the dog to run and sniff.”
“Bentley had the absolute best time with Deena. It could not have been more perfect. He played all day and came home a happy and tired pup. Deena and her husband clearly love animals and are excellent caregivers. Deena even sent us off with extra treats--some lovely squash and plums from her garden. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy.”

“Kassandra did a great job taking care of my pup. She responded quick to my request and was there to meet me when I dropped my dog off. She had a Mello dog and a nice backyard for my girl to hang out in. Would definitely consider booking with her again!”
“Great sitter with cozy, clean and safe home and two sweet little dogs (and a chill cat). My Chihuahua had a good time. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m newly retired and looking forward to spending some of my extra time doing something I’ve always loved—caring for animals. Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for dogs of all sizes, from small companion dogs to large breeds, as well as cats and parrots. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, ages, and routines, and I understand that every pet has their own needs and quirks. Being retired gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to make sure your pets get the attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat prefers some quiet company, or your pets simply need someone dependable to keep their normal routine while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and your home. I’ll treat your animals with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’ve given my own throughout my life. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Now that I’m retired, my days are flexible and relaxed, making pet care a perfect fit. I’ve had animals my entire life, including large and small dogs, cats, and parrots, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my routine. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, and I truly enjoy having animals around. I treat every pet like I would my own. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, and various other animals, I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their family is away. My yard is fully fenced, and I have a senior dog who is very friendly and docile.

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.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Shippee commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
