“Pamela was very thorough with her care for our cat. She took the time to try to play with her, which no other cat sitter has tried to do with Jade. Unfortunately, she is one of those cats who is only comfortable around us. We would feel comfortable with Pamela caring for her in the future and would ask her to return.”
“Brittany was so great! Very easy to communicate with and helped me out with a last minute booking. Took great pictures and made sure my pup was given lots of love.”
“Jessica was wonderful! Our two cats quickly warmed up to her and she cared for them exactly as I requested. The house was left in perfect condition and we came home to happy pets!”
“Chealsea is so wonderful! My outdoor cat didn’t need as much tending to but with cold weather I definitely was glad she could get a look at her and make sure all was ok. Would book Chealsea again of course! Peace of mind with good check ins!”
“Hiccup and Echo enthusiastically recommend Jennifer to be a pet sitter for your fur babies. We looked forward to when she would arrive to feed us and have a some playtime. We really appreciated that she made our humans feel less anxious and have the ability enjoy their trip knowing we were taken care of. Once again, we highly recommend Jennifer for any of your pet sitting needs.”
“Lucia was amazing! Very reliable and professional, and went above and beyond to send us great photos and videos of our cats while we were out of town. We felt great knowing they were in such good hands!”
“Deonna was a blessing to have sitting both of our cats! She was very thorough following my care instructions and bonded with one of my more shy and timid felines pet 🐈. I loved the daily reviews from the visits and pics as well kept me from any worries. I would definitely have her care for my cat's again!”
About: I’ve had dogs in all different sizes! Boxers, Pugs, Rottweilers and many more. I have dealt with many different temperaments and behaviors in all my experience and want your dog to feel safe and taken care of during its time with me. I have Christmas break off right now so I have open availability for anytime in the day you need your pups taken care of! Very flexible! I can feed, play, walk and even run with the dogs in my time with them! I will follow what ever specific instructions you have for your dog, every dog is different and has their own routines I can adjust to.
“Michael did a great job! My dog’s love him! When I’m away, Duke only eats for him. He gives them baths also. Sometimes I’m gone working 3-4 days a week. I know that they are in good hands. That’s always a relief for me. My 3 dogs are so happy to see him. He has been watching them for 4 years now!! Thank you!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who need extra gentleness. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m comfortable giving medications, keeping feeding routines consistent, and reading pet body language. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and let them go at their own pace and make sure every pet feels happy, secure, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine and something I love to do. I work remotely two days a week, and my schedule is very flexible and easily adjusted. I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, feeding, and playtime, and I’m happy to follow their routine to keep them happy and comfortable. I make safety and comfort my top priorities while caring for pets in their own home. I always supervise playtime and walks, keep everything clean and secure, and follow all your instructions for feeding, meds, and routines. I’ll also provide regular updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve been pet/house sitting for years! I love animals and building relationships with their owners so that in the future they can have someone to rely on whenever they’re out of town. I am reliable, flexible and here to help! I currently work part time and would be able to work around both of our schedules to provide for your pets. I’m also available weekdays/nights and weekends! I can assist your pets/ dogs as you need and will make sure they are taken care of for any amount of time needed. You can trust that they are in good hands!
About: I host dogs for several neighbors and friends regularly. I have had several dogs over the years, but lost my older golden retriever 3 years ago. I work from home and spend most of my time in the kitchen and outdoor space. I like to go on walks and hike on neighborhood trails. I have a large fenced yard for playing. Pets sit with me and follow me around the house to my work desk or my kitchen when I cook. They are my snuggly family member while in my home, since my teens don’t want it :)
About: I’ve always taken care of neighbors and friends dogs growing up and I take my own dogs on long walks at the park and make sure to feed them the best food we can. I love giving them baths and training them! I’m currently working a weekday job from 12 to 4 so early mornings, evenings and weekends I’m completely available to watch your creatures or/critters I have two dogs who enjoy just under an acre of fenced in yard, my husky loves to hunt lizards but my Aussie always scares them off!
“Courtney took my request last minute when our prior dog sitting plan fell through. She was extremely responsive and made me feel comfortable that my two dogs would be well taken care of. I loved getting the updates and photos from each visit and being able to communicate between visits. My dogs were clearly comfortable with her, and were able to play, cuddle, and be themselves while I was gone. It gave me great peace of mind of my travels to know they were so well cared for.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats. I've had pets my whole life and can't imagine not having animals around! I have been pet sitting for 10 years and have many people who continue to rely on me to care for their furry children. I am reliable, caring, patient and attentive and would be happy to help you care for your pet! I work from home and I make my own schedule. Because my schedule is so flexible it's easy for me to adapt to anything a pet may need! I have a peaceful cottage with a fenced in yard. I'm surrounded by nature and away from car traffic or busy sounds. If cared for in my home, your pet would have a nice relaxing environment to vacation in. If I cared for your pet in your home, I would follow any requests you have about caring for them in their home environment!
“Lilyanna did a great job of taking care of our pups. We have a 4 month old lab and she was amazing at keeping his schedule and ensuring he maintained his normal routine while we were gone. She was also very communicative and took some super cute photos of the pups. Both dogs seemed happy and stress free when we returned to them. Thank you for making our lives easier and ensuring our dogs are safe and happy!”
About: I aim for personalized, low-volume care with an emphasis on giving each dog the attention, activity, and routine they’re used to. For daycare, I intentionally accept only 2 guest dogs at a time. This provides a calmer alternative to high-volume daycare while still giving dogs plenty of opportunity to play, explore, and socialize. For drop-in visits, I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home and tailor each visit to their normal routine. Whether they need a potty break, feeding, medication, playtime, attention, or simply some company, I’m happy to adjust the visit to what works best for them. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including high-energy and strong-willed breeds Dogs have always been family to me. I’ve had my own for 8+ years, have long been the trusted sitter for friends and family, foster and volunteer with shelter dogs. I work from home, which gives me flexibility throughout the day for both daycare and drop-in visits. When dogs are in my care, I prioritize my schedule around their needs rather than trying to fit every dog into the same routine. For daycare: We live on 2+ fully fenced private acres in Spicewood with a 5-ft fence. Dogs have plenty of secure space to sniff, explore, play, and get their energy out. This is natural Central Texas acreage rather than a paved commercial play yard, so outdoor activity is always adjusted for weather, temperature, terrain, and the individual dog. My two resident dogs are well-socialized and enjoy playing when invited but also respect another dog’s space. Guest interactions are supervised, and dogs are never forced to play. For drop-ins: Drop-in visits can be as active or relaxed as your dog needs. For high-energy dogs, I’m happy to spend the visit focused on movement, play, enrichment, and helping them burn off some energy rather than simply providing a quick potty break. For lower-energy pets, I can keep things relaxed with feeding, potty breaks, medication, attention, and companionship. I follow your instructions and household routine closely so your pets can remain comfortable in their own environment.

With time and organization I can watch your pets when needed. I prefer for the pets to be in the owners home and I can take care of them. If needed can also provide a safe space in my own home

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.
