“This was our first experience with Alexis and we could not be more pleased. We came home to 2 very happy kitties thanks to Alexis's care. What more can you ask for?! Alexis kept us informed, sent pictures, and executed perfectly. Thanks Alexis!”
“Our cat, Steve, always loves when Susan comes to visit him while we are away! Susan is always on time for our scheduled visits, she remembers all the little details, and sends extremely detailed updates after each visit, including several pictures. Having Susan watch Steve always gives us peace of mind.”
“So grateful for Kristen and how she communicates when looking after Rosie and Pete! She makes travel for work so much less stressful just knowing she is there for them. And they love her too! Thank you!”
“I highly recommend Ana! I’m new to the area and needed someone I could trust to care for my shy cat, Littles, while I was out of state for nine days. He was still adjusting to our recent move and had been stressed by water intrusion issues and all the maintenance visits that followed. Ana was quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and set up a meet-and-greet right away. Littles spent most of that first visit hiding behind the couch, but she was patient and determined to win him over. She sent daily photos and updates, and even checked my apartment for water leaks during heavy rain, which gave me so much peace of mind. Within a few days, Littles was curled up in Ana’s lap enjoying all the pets. When I got home, he was relaxed, eating well, and clearly had been well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking Ana again for my September trip and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable pet sitter.”
“Denisse did a great job dropping in on our two dogs while we were away. She was great with communicating how the visits went and the dogs had a fun time! One of our dogs has a habit of peeing on pee pads and she did a great job taking care of any messes so when we came home the house looked good. I would absolutely ask Denisse to watch our dogs again.”
“Katherine was phenomenal as a sitter for our three cats. It was our first time employing Rover and Katherine as our sitter. She was very thorough with the routine, she was very communicative and our cats really enjoyed spending time with her. She played with them a lot and sent us fun pictures and videos. We did not worry about our babies at all…and we are big worriers. I HIGHLY recommend Katherine and will happily have her take care of our kitties again. I’d say she went over and beyond the call of duty!”
“Jessica was the BEST pet sitter!!! I will be suggesting her to all my friends and family locally!! She sent lots of pictures and took the time to mix up the food the very particular way I do for my cat. She played with him, pet and cuddle him and kept his litter clean! I'm so so grateful to have found her!!”
“Brittany was awesome with my dog! He's in between crates right now and can get a little destructive when he's alone, so I had her come sit with him for an hour. She totally went above and beyond — even worked in some crate training and helped him get comfortable stepping into his new crate. He loved her. I'll definitely be calling her again next time I need someone!”
“Julie was fabulous with our dog, Ridley. She went out of her way to reach out to us and connect. She sent us great pictures and her communication was excellent! I would have tipped her more but Rover put a cap on how much I could give.”
“She is a godsend! I have an older very timid dog that really struggles with new people. I honestly was worried that she wouldn’t go outside with the first visit when I wasn’t home. Within two days she she was totally OK with being around Jennie! Jennie has also been so kind to her and mindful, for instance, it was really hot today so she kept her in the grass instead of the pavement. She sits with her even when she’s done with the walk. I could not have asked for a better human to watch my pup! I have her on repeat for drop ins 3x every week while I’m at work and will continue to do so!”
“Always grateful when we’re lucky enough to have Eliza sit for our two cats. Eliza really takes time to make sure the cats feel talked to, played with, and actually get a bit of stimulation, rather than just a quick food, litter, and water change (which Eliza also does flawlessly). One of our top sitters and we highly recommend!”
“Denene was spectacular! Our old lady, Sophie, loved her, too. She spent most of the visits on Denene's lap. Her communication and attention to the details were excellent. I will most certainly book Denene in the future.”
About: I’ll admit it: I can’t resist big eyes and wagging tails! My goal is to spoil your dog rotten while keeping them active and engaged. While we’re out exploring, I stay focused on the fine details—consistency with training, fresh hydration, and following your specific routine perfectly. I’m a great listener and very intuitive to a dog's needs, with years of experience caring for both youngsters and seniors. My schedule is flexible, and I promise the very best care will be bestowed upon your dog every single time
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Skyland
Alexis was wonderful with my Alaskan Shepherd while away for the week — she provided the most wonderful updates and photos throughout my time away, was responsive, thoughtful and responsible on all fronts. I could not have been more comfortable and happy with her care for Takaya. She’s the best.
I deliberated for quite a while on a sitter for my guinea pigs and am so glad I chose Julie! I have one outgoing piggie and one shy piggie yet both my guys were comfortable with Julie right away. That made a big impression on me! Both my boys seemed happy and relaxed upon my return. I appreciated how Julie did a great job following the pig care directions I left. Everything was neat and tidy when I arrived home (piggie care can be messy!) and she even washed out my recyclable bags that hold my guinea pig vegetables and hung them to dry. A sweet little bouquet of hand picked flowers greeted me upon my return. What a great first experience with using Rover!
I honestly can’t say enough good things about Luke! He is truly a dog person who goes above and beyond. From the very beginning, he’s been incredibly patient, attentive, and caring with my dog Lobo who generally prefers women over men. But my dog has easily and quickly adjusted to Luke’s visits. What really stands out to me is his ability to read dog behavior and understand what they’re communicating. He takes time to meet them where they are, respect their personality, and boundaries and never rushes him. Having Luke come by and seeing how he’s been with Lobo has been such a relief to me while I’m at work. And when I say he goes above and beyond….. he even rolled my garbage can in after he knew I had a long day of work and was coming home in a rainstorm. I honestly can’t recommend Luke enough. I’m truly grateful to have him to care for my dog! 🐾❤️

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.
