“Sydney was so great! If she is available the next time we need a cat sitter we will absolutely be asking her to take care of our cats again - we really appreciated her help while we were away on vacation!!”
About: I believe every pet deserves care that’s tailored to their unique personality and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, a playful puppy, or a senior who needs a little extra patience, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I focus on building trust with both pets and their owners by providing dependable care, regular updates, and lots of attention while you’re away.

I will always have time for your fur babies and make sure they’re happy! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the home and the animals with the same respect and attention I would my own. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and any special routines to help pets feel comfortable while you’re away. I always make sure pets have a clean, safe environment, plenty of love and attention, and I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress free as possible while giving you complete peace of mind.

“I was really nervous about traveling and leaving Sophie for 5 days because she is a sensitive dog and needs lots of attention. MaKayla was AMAZING! She took care of her with so much love that made me feel so grateful. Sophie didn’t feel well for a couple days and she went to check on her twice a day without any request. I really recommend her and she will be always our fist pick when we need somebody to take care of Sophie. Thank you so much ???”
About: I treat every pet like an individual, not just another booking. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and comfort level so they feel safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’m patient with nervous pets, playful with energetic ones, and gentle with seniors who need a little extra attention. I’m a student with a flexible schedule, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I have plenty of time to give pets attention, exercise, playtime, and care. I care for pets in the comfort of their own homes, where they already feel safe and familiar. During drop-ins and walks, I follow their normal routines, provide plenty of attention and supervision, and treat every home with respect. I’ll make sure pets have what they need while keeping owners updated, with photos, so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands.
About: I've taken care of dogs for a few years now. From pet sitting to my family dog (blue heeler mix) I've grown quite used to energetic breeds, but I love all my furry friends! I'd love to help you out! I'm currently working part-time as a CNA while also being a full-time student. I'm looking for weekend visits or pet sitting on the weekends. I love to play with any kind of energy level whether rough and energetic, or mellow and sweet. Regardless of energy level, I love animals and would love to help take care of your pet!
About: Hello! I’ve been dogsitting/housesitting for at least 3 years now if not more. I adore meeting new doggos and learning about all of their little quirks. I am very committed to making sure I stick to the rules you have and I find communication very valuable. Of course, above all else I love having a connection with your fur baby and being able to be there for them whenever you need. For the next month or two I’ll likely be available most of the day every day. Currently unemployed but looking into other jobs and I start my last year of school in August. Again I’m more than happy to meet with you and discuss schedule if you’re interested! In the couple times I have taken care of other’s pets I always make sure they’re safe. Whatever the pet parent’s standard is, I follow. It’s important to keep a pattern with our pets so they don’t feel too uncomfortable with their owner being gone. I also provide frequent updates if the pet parent prefers.
About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life, from taking care of family dogs growing up to helping friends and family with theirs. I’ve also done plenty of house sitting and pet sitting over the years, so I’m comfortable taking responsibility for someone else’s pets and treating them like family. 🐾 I currently work as a Psych Tech at a hospital, and outside of my shifts I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m also passionate about fitness and movement, so I’m always happy to get outside for walks, playtime, and adventures with your dog! I’m not currently able to have pets where I’m renting, but I have plenty of experience caring for pets in their own homes. I’ll follow whatever routine and instructions you leave for me — feeding, walks, medications, playtime, or simply giving them plenty of company and attention. Most importantly, I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal. I’ll treat both with respect and make sure your pets get plenty of love and care while you’re away. ❤️ I currently work as a Psych Tech at a hospital, so my schedule varies depending on my shifts, but I have multiple days each week where I’m available for pet care. I’m happy to work with owners ahead of time to make sure our schedules line up and their pets get the time and attention they need. Since I’m not able to have pets at my current rental, I provide care in the owner’s home. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, boundaries, and anything else your pet needs. I want them to feel as comfortable and safe as possible while you’re away.

About: I've been dog walking and caring for pets for 18 years while working other jobs. I come from a family that loves animals (my parents currently have 4 dogs and a cat that I often sit for). I'm not afraid of big or small dogs or their energy. I'm a grad student looking forward to helping pet owners when their lives get busy. I am thorough, thoughtful, great in emergencies, and love the outdoors. Thanks so much for taking the time to consider me! I am currently in grad school, and my schedule is flexible outside of Tuesday-Thursday 1-5:30pm. I work part-time, but I have spare time I'd love to spend hanging out with your pet, either outside for a happy pup walk or inside for a cat cuddle. I believe in treating people's pets as if they were my own. I respect every person and pet I interact with. Safety is a number one priority for all. I am comfortable in all kinds of situations due to my work experience. I'm calm, empathetic, and present when interacting with owners and pets alike.
About: About Me: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since the age of 8, I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. That lifelong love grew into a 7-year career at The Animal Tender, where I gained professional experience providing expert care for countless furry friends. I was responsible for administering an array of medications during my time there, as well as gaining the knowledge of understanding body language.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
