“Excellent communication and care, I could easily tell that my cat was happy and taken care of very well. No issues with anything, and she was very professional and helpful!”
“I was so worried about leaving my sweet girl alone, but she hates being boarded at the vet, so I took a chance. Bethany did a great job, even after a very challenging first night. When we got home, Mollie was as happy as could be. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Bethany again.”
“Jane was a great fur baby sitter. She was at our house as planned consistently. We had daily updates on our babies along with pictures. I would recommend Jane to anyone. Thank you! Cindy”
About: I have a lifetime of experience of taking care of dogs, but I also started volunteering at a local animal shelter when I was about 10 years old, where I gained experience interacting with dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have provided daily care with dogs ranging from 15 pounds to 110 pounds and am comfortable providing attentive and loving care to dogs of any breed. I’m currently working a summer job that allows me to be flexible and change my scheduling around a little bit. In the fall, I am starting classes for college and plan on working as a CNA part-time, mostly on my days off from class which is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. This is undecided, but i will fit your dog into my routine more than once daily and can even stay the night at the house if it’s more convenient for the owners. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I will provide attentive care through feeding, walks around their neighborhood, playtime, and most importantly making sure they feel safe and loved while their owner is away.
“Forgot about an appointment and needed someone to come visit with Sully. Thankfully Jessica was able to come take care of our boy. Jessica continues to be our ‘go to’ sitter for our boy. Thank you!”
About: I have been a dog lover since I was a young child playing with them holding them. Let them show me there joys and if sad hold them for awhile. They are wonderful friends. I am currently not working as summer school jobs are slim. I am available any day at anytime I am needed use me if needed I will care for your dogs by giving them structure and a routine so they can’t miss you as much and anxious behavior is minimized.
About: Animal love here. They are family and I’ll love and respect any animal as such. Love all the fur babies! Very flexible for busy schedules. I’m very flexible when it comes to caring for animals and can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I understand that every pet has different needs and schedules, and I’m happy to adjust my day to make sure they receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I can provide dependable care while making your pets feel comfortable and at home. I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while you’re away. I follow each pet’s routine, pay close attention to their individual needs, and treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring and dependable hands.
About: As a former teacher, I’m used to creating routines, following specific instructions, and making sure each individual feels safe and supported. I understand that every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy learning a routine, a senior pet needing extra patience, or a shy animal who needs time to warm up, I take the time to build trust and provide calm, dependable care. I am currently between jobs, so I have a completely open schedule! I’m happy to drop in while you’re at work, on vacation, or any time you need I provide dependable, loving care while following each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy through walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention.
“Taylor was a delight to talk to, and showed a real love of animals. She gets my Bobby- he is the shy guy that loves to eat, but not one to hang out. She took helpful pictures and made my time away, peaceful.”
“Riley loves his time with Thomas. He is so kind and is taking great care of him on his visits! I love the midday photos and look forward to having his continued help. And he even brings in the garbage can from the road! A small thing but so thoughtful. Thomas is the best.”
“Lauren was amazing! Was very attentive to specific needs of my pet. Excellent communication and updates. Couldn’t be happier with the experience. The only negative is that my cat might like her more than me now :)”
“Reah was amazing and helped out on such short notice! She left such a sweet report card of our puppies :) loved seeing the photos of them playing outside. We will definitely try to have her help out again!”
About: What sets me apart is the personal care and attention I give every pet. I take time to learn each animal’s personality, routine, and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I own a small business so I am able to make my own schedule if it’s at least a month out. If I do have events then I’ll be gone 4-6 hours max. Other than that I will try to be with your animals as much as possible. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with constant attention to their comfort and well-being. I create a safe, loving space where pets can relax, play, and feel at home while you’re away.
About: From an early age, I have cared for, rescued, and loved animals of all types. Into adulthood, I have been blessed to be trusted to provide care for several fur babies, small to large. Developing and maintaining ongoing friendships with both the pets, and the owners is important to me. Earning trust and getting invited back is what drives me. I will be honored to meet you, and your four-legged family. Thank you for your consideration! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am passionate about the well being of animals and will be available rain or shine. I believe the safety of your four-legged family member is very important. At my home, my cats are never without. Simply walking, feeding, and providing clean water is not what pet-sitting is all about. Our furry friends also need love and companionship. That, I believe, sets me apart.
“Danita was a lifesaver on our camping trip! We were going to be gone all day so she came to our cabin last minute and let the pups out and took great care of them. They were happy when we got home late at night. Thank you!”
About: I have had pets all my life. Mainly dogs. I have trained some of my personal pets in the past. I also love seeing animals personalities, and learning to work with them from there. I work 8a-4p Tuesday - Friday, and some Mondays (same hours). I never work weekends or evenings. I have an hour for lunch on the days I work, so I am able to run by for a potty break if needed. I have a big fenced in backyard just waiting for your dog to come roam! I do not currently have any pets, so I do not have a cage, water bowl, leash, etc. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.
About: I have a lifetime of personal experience with many wonderful dogs and cats. I have 13 years of professional experience with all types of dogs and cats (a 1 very cool chameleon!) All of whom I have loved very much. I work full-time from wherever I can take my laptop so I am available to stay with your pets all day and night if needed. I strive to give your pets the closest care possible to what you give them in your home, with plenty of love, care and patience. I take the responsibility of staying in your home very seriously as you are trusting me with your house AND your furbabies. Not a responsibility I take lightly.
“Sarah did a great job with my cats! Not only did she feed and take care of the litter, but she also was helpful with collecting my packages and mail for me while I was away. She also takes great photos of your pet while she is watching them!”

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.
