“Molly was great! Extremely responsive and so glad we had her look after our boy while we were on vacation! We received detailed updates and pictures every day. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“I love her work. She's so responsable and super patient. Take her time to know them. Follow instrucctions very well. I will definetly count with her in a futuro! Thanks Tessa! Happy New Year!”
“Baleigh went above and beyond for my cats. I had sudden plans change and she was extremely accommodating and kind to work with me. She kept my home clean, took plenty of pics of my cats for me, and gave them attention despite them being shy. I would recommend Baleigh for anybody!”
“This was my first time to use Rover. I chose Megan because she had great reviews, this will be another good one. She was taking care of my three cats while I was gone for a week. She was very professional, showed up when she said and took very good care of my animals.”
“Absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend Chestney! She was always on time and took great care of our pups while we were. She communicated everything that we asked. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals as a kennel tech and vet assistant since I was 15 years olds. And my degrees and career field revolves around veterinary medicine. I have nothing but free time to sit at home and care for your animals. There may be limited weekend availability depending on if I’m allowed to visit home once a month. I have an unfenced yard if your animal is a great listener, if not there is tons of space and a dog park for me to give them outside enrichment. Animals are free range in my home unless they have social issues. There are man areas that small kennels and gates can be placed to allow for separation if needed.
About: I have a total of 4 years within veterinary medicine so I am specialized in both canines and felines. I am certified in most canine behavioral courses, and I do have certificates that were required by my day job at the Humane Society. I currently work part time for the humane society. My shifts are 8AM-3PM. My availability during the week is only limited to evenings but I do not have them listed on the app. Within my home we have a large property with 2 small dogs. Dogs will be leashed for walks just to ensure safety and not have any little wanderers in my neighborhood! At a client's home, I am there for the pets care. Once their needs are completed, I will do my best to make sure they are comfortable before I make my exit and especially devote time for love and attention!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for 8 years, starting when I was 15 and in high school. What began as a way to earn extra money quickly became something I genuinely loved! I recently moved to Beaumont to pursue my Doctorate in Audiology, and being away from home made me realize how much I missed being around animals. I’m excited to get back into pet sitting through Rover and meet some new furry friends! 🐾💗 I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, cuddles, or a little company, I’m happy to be there for them! 🐶💕 I’m a full-time Doctor of Audiology student, so my schedule varies, but I’m usually available Friday through Sunday. During the week, I’m generally available after 5:00 PM for evening walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’m happy to work with your schedule and will always make sure I have enough time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve! 🐾💗 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! 🐾 I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions. For boarding, I currently live in a dorm, so I can only accommodate small, well-behaved dogs that are comfortable in a smaller living space. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, cuddles, and care throughout their stay. For care in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own. 💗
“Taylor is great! The dogs love her and I don't worry about them while I am gone. I hate leaving them and haven't left them much in years, but now that I found Taylor, I am traveling again! Thank you for taking such good care of my babies, Taylor!!”
About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs. I’m not ready to get another dog yet so I know that I would be a good fit for yours. I am retired. Walking your dog would be a blessing to me as well as give you peace of mind. I will take care of yours the same as I would do for mine. I have a fenced in yard. I have no pets. I love being outside and am very active. It would be a honor to be your dog walker.
“Melanie is our go to gal for watching our fur babies! Not only is she professional, thorough, and sweet - she is also personable. Even though Rover notifies you when your sitter has arrived, Melanie sends her own personal message informing you she’s on-site. She also sends pictures/videos of your pets along with verbal updates. She likes to do a meet and greet before your actually booking which is nice. This is when you give her your notes/request/suggestions and overall routine of your pets. She immediately won over my pets and embraced their chaos - She is also armed and loaded with bite sized treats. Melanie is trustworthy and truly loves animals. Do yourself a favor and use her - we’re already booking her again!”
About: Hi, my name is Reyna and I've had pets all my life. From bunnies to cats and now I am the loving pawrent of 2 Dachshunds named Nitro and Winnie and 1 recently adopted Chihuahua named Larue. I completely understand that eventhough we wish we could take our furbabies wherever we go sometimes that is not an option. You can count on me to check up on your babies if you ever head out for the day and need peace of mind. I can drop in for a check in, feed them, walk them, play with them and head back out. I am a full time employee during the week but I am available most Fri-Sun. I am a full-time employee Monday-Thursday. I am available most Friday-Sunday for drop in visits with your pets especially if told ahead of time. You can count on me to drop in and feed, walk or play with your babies. I know some have more energy than others and require more walking and playing than others and I can do that. You can trust to let me know what your furbabies activity level is so I can plan an exciting drop in visit for them.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, fresh food and water, and a safe, comfortable environment. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, playtime, walks, feeding, or extra attention while you’re away, you can count on me to provide loving and reliable care. ❤️🐶 I’m a stay-at-home mom, and now that my child has started pre-K, I have plenty of time during the day to care for your pets. I’m available for daytime drop-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and boarding. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who can provide companionship for pets who enjoy being around other dogs. I’m also able to keep pets separated when needed and can crate your dog if requested. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions carefully, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. 🐾❤️
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals all my life. I love animals and it’s truly a passion of mine. I will care for them as if they’re my own. I am currently working full time but I get off at 5 during the week so I will have plenty of time to care for fur babies after that. I also have off Saturday and Sunday so I will be available then as well. I can pet set and take them for walks from your home after my scheduled time at work. I can also honor any feeding schedule and make sure they have the best care possible.
About: I have loved and cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds for several years. Friends and family regularly rely on me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets. I am highly responsible, energetic, and dedicated to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. Whether they need a long walk or some cozy couch cuddles, I’ve got it covered! I am currently a student with classes only on Mondays and Wednesdays. Aside from my Sunday night assignment deadlines, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible. This gives me plenty of dedicated time throughout the week and weekends to fully focus on, walk, and play with your beloved pups! I specialize in caring for pets directly in the comfort of your own home, where they feel most safe and secure. While I do have a fully fenced backyard and can crate dogs if absolutely necessary, I prefer traveling to your house to maintain your dog's regular routine, environment, and peace of mind.

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.

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.
