“Katie did a great job with the dinner dropin for my boys. No fault to her, I missed a message she sent asking about their potty break. Even though she saw it after she left, she went back to let them out. Outstanding work ethic and will use Katie again for more visits and stays.”
“Crystal has been the perfect pet sitter for my two needy furry ones. This was her second long weekend with Macy May and Callie. Everything went well, they were happy to see me, well fed, exercised and content. Couldn’t ask for more!”
“reached out to Addysin at the last minute for drop-in visits for my dog, Arena, and I’m so grateful she was available. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of my pup! I will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Arena and I are very happy with Addysin! 😊”
“Emily went above and beyond caring for my cats while I was out of town. One was recovering from an injury and she made sure she got her medication and ate and drank well. Couldn't recommend Emily enough!”
“Kelly is the absolute best! Extremely responsible and an excellent communicator. She has a natural ability to connect to animals and is quite patient. Our cats adore her, even the super shy one. So happy we found her!”
About: I’ve taken care of large breed dogs for the last 10 years, I love to get out and play or relax inside. I’ve worked with dogs on off leash training I’m currently working full time but home during the day. My schedule has me off Fridays and Saturdays. I work very close to home and come home for lunch for an hour during the night I have a very large backyard surrounded by woods and the house is set back from the road. I can easily crate your dog if needed
About: I am a mother and it is obvious in the way I care for dogs it comes naturally and doesn't feel like work. Also, I am friendly, upbeat, and enjoy spending time with dogs. Currently, I am a bar captain for a Broadway theater. So my availability is mostly in the afternoons, and late nights. Over my lifetime, I have had many dogs. All were rescued dogs who suffered from tremendous abuse. With that lasting trauma, trust and behavioral issues are common and for which I have the patience for. In addition to my personal experiences with dogs coming from special circumstances, most of my dogs have been medium to large breeds, and many of those were scent hounds. Which means you have to indulge some curiosities, all while staying mindful of safety. Therefore I would be happy taking your dogs on indulgent walks led by their noses and helping you take great care of your dogs would be my pleasure.
About: I worked as a kennel technician at a boarding/daycare facility for over a year so I have seen firsthand how stressful those environments can be despite how social you think your dog might be with others. Dogs have always been one of my special interests since I was very little, I have plenty of experience taking care of senior dogs and puppies, and I am comfortable taking care of any breed/temperament. I have no problem if you spam me for pictures of your pup and I love sending constant updates and pics! I know how stressful it can be not to have your dog in your own care so no request is too small. I am a full-time college student studying environment and zoology, please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! I have full class schedule throughout the week and it changes per semester, don’t let that stop you from reaching out! I will take a look at any request and see if I can make them work. The more specific you are the better. If I have even the tiniest question I will not hesitate to reach out, I want your dog to be as close to there typical environment/schedule as possible so they are comfortable. Saftey is the big priority for me when caring for your pup, your dog will never be put in an unsafe situation by me. I am comfortable with emergency aid if necessary and I have transportation if your dog needs to be taken to a veterinarian.

About: Hi! My name is Kasey, and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and caring for them. I have years of hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I currently care for several of my own animals as well, so I’m very used to different routines, energy levels, and individual needs. I also have veterinary/animal care experience, which has helped me become comfortable handling pets calmly and safely, including giving medications if needed. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I always do my best to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, supported, and at ease. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, anxious, or just needs a little extra patience and love, I’ll always treat them like they’re my own. I also love sending updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and welcoming experience for every pet I care for ❤️ Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently work, and with school starting soon, I’ll mainly be available mornings, afternoons, and flexible hours when possible. I do my best to keep my schedule organized so I can give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since I already care for several pets of my own, I’m very used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleaning, medications, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care never feels like a chore to me Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets is very important to me. I always try to make animals feel comfortable and cared for, whether I’m visiting them in their home or spending extra time helping them settle in while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I’m happy to adjust to whatever helps them feel most secure. I also have veterinary/animal care experience, so I’m comfortable handling pets safely and giving medications if needed. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort levels, and I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated with patience and kindness. I’ll also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel reassured while away from their pets

“She was a wonderful sitter! I really loved how much my kids seemed to enjoy her presence while we were gone. 10/10 would recommend and book her again!! She was very responsive, very thorough, let me know if anything happened, and was on time!!”
About: From high school neighborhood pet sitter, to having 4 cats and a dog of my own, I have always loved caring for animals! I have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. Most recently, I have raised 3 kittens. I also cared for a diabetic chihuahua and adopted a cat who was 21 years old. I have experience with large dogs, high energy pups and cranky cats. I was a Rover Sitter a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. I am excited to be back and hopefully spend some time with your pets! Please let me know if you have any questions and reach out anytime. I currently have a very open availability and lots of free time to spend with your pets!

During my time at the home, I hope to fulfill the pets need and make the life of the client more pleasant. Whether that means running around with a high energy puppy or keeping an elderly dog company on the couch, Im in!
“I’m very happy I found Carmen on Rover. I know my dog Arena loves people and being spoiled, but she’s usually very nervous around new people at first. Carmen has been incredibly patient, giving Arena the time and space she needs to feel safe and get comfortable. I truly appreciate how great she’s been during this first week, checking in on Arena while I’m at work. I fully trust her to take my pup on walks and care for her.”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Spencer stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
