“I didn’t want to board our animals This was my first time using Rover for drop in visits and Maria was wonderful. She took great care of our dogs and cat. I highly recommend her. I will definitely be rebooking.”


About: I’ve been raised with dogs my whole life, with my own fur baby adopted little over a year! My family and friends have trusted me to watch/walk their dogs numerous times. Dogs tend to gravitate towards myself, they can probably smell that i like them :-D Just recently graduated from college, looking for a side hustle while following my career goals! During the week I have the most free time, with weekends usually away traveling. I am extremely active with no issues walking far distances for your fur baby, and will adhere to any necessities for your dogs maintenance (medicine, feeding, etc).
About: I’ve taken care of pets my entire life! When I was younger I took good care of my cocker spaniel and was responsible for taking her out on walks, feeding her, and taking her out to do her business. For the past 8 years I’ve taken care of three cats, making sure their litter box is clean and they are regularly fed and have water readily available. I am available at all hours every day of the week, but I just need a days notice to confirm the hours. Please reach out to confirm. I’m available to check in on your pets throughout the day. I’ll make sure they are fed and have water. Of course play time and attention included! I’ll clean out the cat’s litter box and walk your doggos!
About: I’ve taken care of puppies, kittens dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed and play with their pets. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and or cats. I am available to care for your pet or pets on weekends, weekdays and holidays. I cannot currently board animals at my home due to various reasons. I will be sure to offer that if I can in the future. Thank you.

About: Between having pets of my own and caring for other people’s pets, I’ve gotten to experience a little bit of everything! I’ve cared for puppies, helped with training and routines, and looked after senior pets who need extra help. I love that pet sitting lets me get to know all kinds of animals and their little personalities. I’m always willing to learn what works best for each pet and make their time with me a good one. ☺️ Pet sitting is something I make time for in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around my bookings so I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I enjoy being able to make pet care part of my everyday life, and I do my best to work with each family’s needs and their pet’s usual routine. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect the space and follow the instructions their owners leave for me. I make sure pets are secure, keep doors and gates closed, and pay attention to their surroundings. I stick to their usual routines and keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know how things are going. My goal is for owners to have peace of mind knowing their pets and home are in good hands.
About: Since I was 12 animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages — from newborn puppies learning the ropes to sweet senior pups needing a little extra TLC. I'm patient, observant, and always adjust my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I truly treat every animal like family. I pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and comfort. I’m also experienced with: Administering oral medications Creating enriching, safe environments for solo pets or multi-pet households Respecting routines — because pets love structure just as much as we do! Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood :) As a nursing student, I balance my studies with my passion for caring for pets. My classes and clinicals are mostly during the day, but I’m available for early morning and evening walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays on weekends or between shifts. I’m great at managing my time and making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need, even with a busy schedule. I’m flexible and reliable, and I always communicate clearly to fit pet care smoothly around my school commitments. Pet care is a meaningful way for me to unwind and bring joy outside of my studies — so your furry friend will always be in caring, attentive hands. I prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care above all else. Whether I’m looking after pets in my home or visiting yours, I make sure the environment is secure, calm, and welcoming. At your home, I respect your space and routines, following all your instructions carefully to keep your pet comfortable and happy. I always do a safety check to remove anything that might pose a risk and ensure food, toys, and medications are given exactly as directed. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs — from gentle supervision to active engagement — and I never leave pets unattended where they could get hurt or stressed. I build trust through clear, honest communication and by being consistent in care. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family.

About: Hi, I grew up in a pet household and have 10+ years caring for multiple dogs and cats. I have some experience administering medicine as well. I telework Wednesday- Friday and have most weekends available to walk or drop-in with your pet! I am available after 4:30pm on the weekdays and open on the weekends. If you’re close enough to me I could even drop in during the day on a weekday. I would treat your pets the same way I treat my own, like family. I understand the potential stress that can come when your pet meets someone new and am ready to make the effort to gain their trust.
“Heather was PERFECT!! She was so sweet with my two dogs and cat and made my nervous Chihuahua happy and comfortable!! (I was a little unsure about him, with it being his first time)! She took extra loving care of my fur babies and I hope she will do it again for me! She was a real blessing!!! Thank you Heather!!!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and at this moment I have 2 friendly dogs; a 13 year old terrier mix and a 2 year old mini pitcher. I have a quiet clean (not scrubbed just cozy) home. Dogs are able to sit on couch, sleep with me in my king bed, have snack breaks and go in the backyard for potty breaks and to play fetch. My fenced backyard has a large grass area and a covered patio, we spend lots of time hanging out there on nicer days. I own my home in a nicer neighborhood since 2012. I'm super casual and easy going with a drug, smoke and alcohol free home. Your dogs will be spoiled! Dogs have lots of indoor and outdoor play time. If dogs have thier own dog food, I'll put the other dogs outside to make sure they get thier meal times otherwise I have plenty of blue buffalo dog food I mix with Purina. A morning potty out back while I prepare and separate dog bowls then they can all come in unless a dog is on a special diet then ill feed them separately. My backyard is fenced with locked gates. They get treats throughout the day and a dinner before bed. Then if they want to sleep on the bed with me they can otherwise there's thick blankets on the floor near me.
About: All throughout my childhood we had at least 1 or more dogs in our home. I'm very experienced with their care needs and have just completed my A.S. at mjc minoring in veterinary technology. I'm currently job hunting as I just finished up schooling so I have a lot of free time that I would like to spend with some furry friends. I have four cats so they own the place, I just live there. I have experience with animal handling in both dogs and cats. No issues with putting them in crates or making sure they don't escape. I'm very quick and know how to approach with caution.
About: I truly love animals, especially dogs. They’re not just pets — they’re family. Caring for them brings me so much joy, and I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening visits, I make time to give every dog the love, exercise, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether in my home or my client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. In my client’s home, I make sure their pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping the space clean and secure.
About: Hello my name is Shondra and I absolutely love dogs. as a retiree, I'm home most of the time, so your pup will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day-they'll never be left alone for long periods. I've had dogs my entire life and have experience training German Shorthaired Pointers as hunting dogs. Although I no longer hunt, the knowledge, patience, and dedication I gained from training them helps me provide excellent care for every dog I meet. I walk my own dog every day, and if your pup enjoys walks and is able to join us, I'd be happy to include them in our daily adventures. My home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly, giving your furry family member a comfortable place to relax and feel at home. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so i'll send you daily photos and updates so you can see all the fun your pup is having and peace of mind. If you have a puppy, I can also help with crate training and potty training by following a consistent routine and using positive reinforcement, but it has to be with a crate for cleanliness. My promise is simple: I'll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into my home. I have saved my dog Kiddy (who has now passed away at 19yrs old) from near death when she was 16yrs old. She had an infected tooth which got into her blood and caused her to almost die. the doctor gave her antibiotics but she wasn't eating or drinking for days. I put in a blender chicken and pedialyte, I then poured it into a feeding syringe and carefully put it in her mouth, I did this for 2 days and she came back to life. She got her tooth pulled as soon as she was better. I wanted to tell my story so you know that I will do whatever it takes to care for your pup. Our fur babies are family❤️❤️🙏 I am retired and home to take care of your pup. I do have one little dog and 2 cats. My pup is on an eating schedule and walking schedule so if your pup is on any schedule I will accommodate. My dogs and cats are cherished members of the family, and I will treat your animals as my extended family. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where your pet feels happy and secure while your pet feels happy and secure will you're away. I have a fully fenced yard for outdoor play and live close to a park, where your pup can enjoy daily walks and exercise. I also have a swimming pool that is not fenced; however, your pets safety is my highest priority, and I closely supervise all outdoor time to ensure they stay safe. if your pet requires medication, I am experienced and comfortable administering it according to your instructions. I will also follow your preferred feeding schedule and routine to help your pet feel at home. I specialize in caring for small to medium-size dogs. if your pup enjoys relaxing on the couch, they're welcome to cuddle up with me. I can provide a crate if needed, or you're welcome to bring your own if that's what your pup is accustomed to sleeping in. For the comfort and cleanliness of my home, I do require that all pets be potty trained or crated while learning to be potty trained. I also understand that every pet has unique needs. For example, I currently care for a friends dog who uses a dog litter box, so im happy to accommodate that setup if needed. As a special treat, I make homemade boil chicken treats that many dogs love, of course, I will always follow any dietary restrictions or special instructions you provide. Most importantly, I will care for your pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I want every dog or cat in my care to feel safe, loved, and right at home.
About: I've always had dogs and crate trained my dogs. I know how to train basic commands but nothing really beyond that. I do love playing with dogs and also relaxing with them as well. I do work full time but I do work from home most of the week. So my schedule is pretty flexible for the most part. I have a fenced yard, and 4 friendly dogs. We do have 2 cats but they stay outside as they don't like our dogs. I make sure the the pet I babysit is comfortable and listen to instructions on the owners requests.

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.
