“Brianna was absolutely great! We get pretty anxious when we have to leave our pets (and community cats) behind, and Brianna made sure we had nothing to worry about! She was even a great trooper having to deal with our questions and concerns. (We can be a bit difficult, we're sorry!) We would have ZERO concerns using her in the future. Highly recommended!!”
“Briana does a great job! We’ve used her for drop in visits and for overnight stays and she did a great job at both! Our dogs are comfortable with her which makes us super comfortable with her. It’s always easy working with her.”
“Madison was absolutely amazing! She was very friendly and responsive through text. She took great care of our pups! She showed up for each visit as scheduled and spent some good quality time with them. Stuck to their routine and kept them from feeling anxious while we were away. She sent numerous updates and pictures during each visit. We would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a good quality sitter. She loved our boys just as we would have. I felt very confident and at ease having her as our sitter. We will definitely be using her services in the future. Thank you so much Madison! We appreciate your time and your extra effort spent on making sure the pups had a stress free few days while we were away.”
“Alexandra watched over my pup so well why we were out of town! Loved getting updates and knowing my little fur baby was okay while we were away. Would definitely recommend and would absolutely use her assistance again!”
About: I think one of the main things that sets me apart is that I used to work at an animal hospital, my mom works at one and has been for 20 years, if your pet has any medical needs I’m always willing to help! I’m currently in my pre requisites for nursing, but truly miss being able to care for animals. I currently and in school part time, most of my time is spent with my own dog since she has lots of energy. I will not schedule if I feel I cannot provide 5 star care for your pet as I understand your furry family is the most important part of your home. I just moved to the horizon area, I currently live in a house. Safety is my number 1 priority so I will always have a leash on at all times and make sure that your animals don’t leave my side. Working at an animal hospital and growing up around animals my whole life I’m very confident in being able to care for your animals as my own. I wouldn’t want anyone hurting my pup so why would you? I’ll be sure to keep in touch at all times and I’ll send pics so you have peace of mind while your away!

About: I totally get how much your pets mean to you! I have had pets for most of my life and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and needs. My spacious house and yard are perfect for playtime and zoomies. I provide treats, toys, blankets, and crates. For their safety, I am ALWAYS outside with them during bathroom breaks or playtime. If your dogs are used to going on walks, I am more than happy to accommodate their usual routine. I also have two friendly dogs of my own, a maltipoo and a poodle mix. I'm flexible with my availability right now since I'm home full-time. This allows me to give your pets all the attention they require and deserve. Safety comes first!

I am currently on the job market, so I have lots of free time to take care of those fur babies! Love them all haha. I respect boundaries and limitations, especially at someone’s house, I work well with animals because they’re easier to babysit, not as unpredictable as humans haha.

“Had Stephanie do a drop in for us while we were out of town. She was amazing. Checked on our cats food, litter and water also had time to play and get all the pets. Thanks again!!”
“Sarah was an absolute lifesaver when I needed last-minute help with my dogs! Even though I reached out on short notice, she was incredibly responsive and professional. She promptly scheduled a meet and greet, and then followed through the very next day with two drop-in visits exactly as planned. Sarah was punctual for every appointment and even sent photos during her visits, which I really appreciated. It's clear she cares about both pets and their owners' peace of mind. I'm so grateful to have found someone so reliable and communicative right when I needed it most. I will definitely be booking again.”
“Great communication with us throughout and we loved receiving videos of our kitties in addition to pics and text updates. Cats were calm and happy when we got home so I know they had their cuddle and play needs met.”
About: Family and friends recognize my love for their pets when I visit their homes. I have experience house sitting homes with at least two pets. I follow routines and schedules to avoid stress on the pets. I have more experience with large dogs however I have also cared for chihuahuas in the past. I have one dog who I raised since she was 6 weeks old. She’ll be 5 this November. She is a pitbull who loves to sleep and cuddle. She has 7 roommates, 1 turtle, 3 adults pugs, 2 puppy pugs and 1 eight month old bully. My work allows full flexibility. I am available 7 days a week between 6:30 am - 8:30 pm. I update my calendar frequently to avoid last minute changes/ cancellations. My dog is crate trained due to the fact that we do not have a doggy door. I care for my clients pets the way they would. I make sure to keep a routine for their pets to reduce stress caused by the absence of their owners. I do have conversations with pets and interact with them as I do with my dog.
About: My experience with dogs is both personal and professional. I have raised my own dogs from puppyhood, and I have also given vaccinations to others’ dogs through their puppyhood. Due to this, I bring the unique experience of providing personal care and affection while also providing medical care standard. I care for others pets how I’d take care of my very own, like family. I am able to provide that weekend and holiday support! For when family needs to go away but the dogs have to stay! Currently, I am able to provide weekday support as well, this can tentatively change! Caring for pets in their own home is the best form of care, in my opinion. They get to keep their routine and have all their things! The only thing that changes is me! This provides a safe, trustworthy environment for them. I want them to feel comfortable and safe and to know that their parents will be home soon!
About: Hi! I’m a proud dog mom to three amazing French bulldogs, and caring for them has taught me so much about patience, responsibility, and unconditional love. While I haven’t cared for other people’s pets professionally yet, I treat my dogs like family and I’d do the same for yours! I understand how important it is to find someone who’s reliable, gentle, and genuinely loves animals. From feeding and playtime to cuddles and walks, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m a part-time student and attend school from 8 AM to 12:30 PM, Monday through Friday. I also work full-time on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Outside of those hours, I have plenty of time to give pets the love and attention they need. I am also very active I love to workout, run go for walks I have completed 4 half marathons in the past year so being active is very important and I know it’s also very important for dogs to stay active. Since I already care for my three dogs daily, I’m used to a routine of feeding, walking, and playtime and I’d be happy to provide that same level of care for your pup too! When walking dogs, I make sure each outing is safe, fun, and tailored to their energy level. Whether it’s a brisk walk for exercise or a slower stroll for older pups, I give them my full attention and always follow any leash or behavior preferences you share. I also make sure they have water and feel settled before I leave. During drop ins, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I’ll handle feeding, potty breaks, fresh water, and playtime. If your pet just wants company and cuddles, I’m happy to provide that too. I’ll also send you updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sparks
Isaac and Veronica took absolutely incredible care of my two cats, Cajun and Skinny Pants, while I was away. I had total peace of mind the entire time. They truly go above and beyond, and they are so kind and reliable. If you want a pet sitter who genuinely loves animals, look no further. They are officially our go-to sitter!
She took excellent care of my two pups doing drop ins for three days. She communicated with me during visits and kept me updated on behaviors and activities while they were in her care. I came home to two very happy pups and I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

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.
