“Taressse continues to be our go to dog walker! She is consistent, communicative, and has walked our two pit mixes regularly without incident, despite them both having tendencies to chase wildlife and one of them dogs sometimes being reactive to certain dogs and people in our neighborhood. Thank you Taresse! I don’t know what we would do without you during my recovery!”
“This was my first time using any sitter from Rover and Erika was great! She put me at ease introducing me to ths whole process. She sent daily pictures and drop-in descriptions of how my cats were doing, which made me feel better about leaving them alone. I will definitely recommend her and certainly use her again.”
“Christina was wonderful and so understanding of all the craziness she walked into with our dog. Very communicative and we loved to see our dog visibly happy in every photo we received!”
“Thank you for caring for our cats while we were traveling! You really made them feel happy, played with, and fed! We really appreciated you staying for the whole drop in visit and sending pictures as we were really missing them while we were away!!”
“I have used Madeline on two different occasions and both times she has been reliable and responsive. I know my animals are in good hands with her and will definitely reach out to her again the next time I’m in need of a sitter!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! We did 3 drop in visits and each one was done in a timely manner with all the focus on the kitties. Communication was a breeze and our cats were very comfortable the whole time!”
“Zachary was absolutely wonderful and gave us the peace of mind we needed during our weekend away. He gave our kitty Paddy so much love and sent us photos throughout our time away which was great! :) Highly recommend - thanks for everything, Zach!”
“Yutong did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 Shiba Inu boys while we were out of town for a couple of days. He was incredibly responsive, sent loads of photos and videos, and made us feel very sure that our dogs were happy and well cared for. We will certainly be reaching out to him again to take care of our dogs!”
“Geny was dependable, dedicated and very informative while caring for my dogs. She encountered several hiccups which she responsibly worked to correct and my dogs, one of whom is very skittish, love her!”
About: Most of my pet care experience started January 2025 with the rescue of my pit-mix BB. She was the longest resident at the shelter, and just needed love and a chance. She has returned my fiance and I's love over and over. I grew up with family pets and outdoor cats, and knew the basics of animal care. I wanted a stable life to give any pet the life they deserve! I am grateful for BB and for the village that helps care for her. I hope to be a part of your pets' village! I am currently transitioning between careers, and have the extra time to dedicate to the extra furry ones! Quality time is deeply important to me, and I hope to build bonds on this journey. Without a fenced yard for BB to run around, my fiance and I take turns walking her around our neighborhood circuit. I typically take the morning and he takes the evening. We take extra walks for exercise and socializing, and book SniffSpots to let her run loose! BB has a crate that she sometimes opts to rest in, but 99% of the time she is napping at our feet.
“Jaeda did a great job with our golden retriever. She knew just how to manage him on his walks and provided him with lots of petting, as well as playtime. She followed our directions thoroughly and took initiative with providing him with longer walks to calm his energy. She has a natural and caring temperament which really made him feel comfortable.”
“This is first time that we had her watching our pets. Our previous sitter had relocated to another city. All our pets were well-taken of while we were away. Kayla was easy to communicate before and during her visits. Pets had no signs of distress and she provided photos during each of her visits. We will be using her to help us again in the future.”
“Stephani was great with my anxious shy dogs! My dog wound up needing medication in the middle of the week and Stephani had no problems pivoting to include that care in her visits. She gave lots of picture updates too! ◡̈”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. Dogs of all shapes and sizes. I love taking care of dogs. Playing, walking, and feeding them. They really are man’s best friend. I work full time, but telework often. I work 10 minutes from home and stop by for lunch daily. The weekends I’m home all the time. Would give full attention to all dogs. My house is the dogs house. As long as they are house trained, they have full use of the house. Nice big yard to run around. Plenty of trails to go for a walk and stretch their legs.
“Yolanda was amazing with our dog! She was caring, helpful, and understanding to what we needed. She was flexible with our schedule and consistent. We loved her feedback and we know that our dog was well taken care of. Thank you so much Yolanda!”
“Alena is very attentive to all special request and handled my large dogs excellently! It is clear she loves dogs and I would highly recommend her for care for any of your furry friends!”
About: I love training dogs bodies and minds through exercise and mental stimulation. I’ve owned, walked and was a pet sitter for a variety of dogs. I’ve most recently owned/trained a puppy (he is now almost one). I’m currently working part-time and have a somewhat flexible schedule. Because of this, I will have plenty of time to love on and care for your pup! I am open to walking your dog on a leash, playing with it in your yard, or taking it to the local off-leash dog park.
About: I've cared for several kinds pets for my friends and family since I was 15. I have learned how to train dogs specifically in simple commands such as sit, down, stay, and leave it. I currently own a pup and have helped him learn a multitude of commands and I have a deeper understanding on how to keep your pet safe. I understand how to care for your pet and how to meet their needs in regards to feeding, walking, exercising, and safety. I am currently part-time in school making my schedule flexible to take care of your fur babies. I am available Monday through Friday and occasionally on Sunday, please contact me for availability. I will adapt to your pets environment as needed making sure to keep dangers away from your pup. This of course will vary from location to location so communicate with me what individual needs your pet has to ensure their safety.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Simpsonville
Erika was very communicative and asked permission before being late and apologized for almost being late another time. She took very funny pictures of our cats and one is now my wife’s phone background. Thank you so much and we will be reaching out in the future if we need someone to watch our cats.
We are new to Rover. This was our visit. Richard helped us through the process and answered all our questions. He was a terrific sitter. From our initial visit we felt instantly comfortable with him and the way he interacted with our cat. We had a week long trip and never worried. We would definitely recommend him!
He’s been great about accommodating last-minute requests to check in on our dog and always follows our instructions. Daisy quickly got comfortable with him and really enjoys going on walks with him. We’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Stephani did an excellent job with our two cats! She came each day and spent the full drop in time with them, scooped litter, made sure they ate, and also played with them while we were away. It was clear to us that our boys loved having Stephani around, and she flagged anything amiss to us each day she came by. We will absolutely book with Stephani again!
I highly recommend Cameron G. I contacted Cameron on very short notice right before my trip, and he was able to take great care of my cat. He kept me updated with photos during every visit, which gave me peace of mind knowing that Rosie was happy and well cared for while I was away. If you live in Howard County, Maryland, I would definitely recommend Cameron to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Rosie!
Sarah was kind, friendly, and obviously takes her work very seriously! I was worried to leave my cats for a week but after meeting Sarah, I was very reassured they were in safe, responsible hands. I would highly recommend her to my family and friends and will definitely use her services again.
Amanda is WONDERFUL! She really took the time to get to know our dogs! She came for a pre-visit, and took notes. She's very conscientious, safety focused, and our pets really fell in love with her. She was sensitive to our one dog who is older and slower, and made accommodations for our younger dog too. Top notch! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

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.
