“Jennifer was amazing! So happy I booked with her. This was my first time using Rover so I was hesitant in the process. She immediately put me at ease with her diligence in responding to my myriad of questions! My dogs instantly loved her caring demeanor. I highly recommend booking Jennifer, especially if you're in the Sugar Land or Ft Bend area. Will absolutely book Jennifer again!”
“Kelly was ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! The professionalism, dependability and care she provided for our fur baby was top notch! I highly recommend Kelly to anyone seeking pet care drop-ins. She definitely made this entire experience stress-free! ☺”
“Alex was fantastic with our two cats, Arya and Zelda! He really understood their different personalities. He was patient enough to get our shy Arya to feel comfortable and eat her wet food, and he made sure Zelda got plenty of the playtime she loves. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Our three dogs aren’t always the easiest crew to manage, but she handled them incredibly well and quickly became best buds with all three. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and clearly has a great way with dogs. We came home to three happy pups and will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of animals since i was a child. From dogs to cats I've gained experience working, playing with and taking care of pet animals. Majority of my experience is with dogs of all sizes and breeds. Currently I am in the process of getting a full time job, so I'll be able to take care of your pups all day on my days off and before and after I work! I prefer to care for pets in their home where they are comfortable, in the exact way the client does when they take care of their pets. If the client has a set routine, then I'll follow it, otherwise I care for the pets by making sure they potty, eat food, playtime/go for a walk and clean any messes they may make.

“Crystal did an amazing job. My cat was so happy and never felt alone. She was well-fed and taken care of beautifully. I even received a couple of photos, which I really appreciated. Crystal also kept me updated, letting me know when she was on her way and when she arrived. When took care my girl. Thank you so much Crystal. You did amazing. Can’t wait work with you again.”
“It was my first time using Rover and actually first time leaving my dog in the hands of a stranger. Natalie was so awesome and took such good care of our doberman Murphy. She maintain great communication throughout and even with the couple hiccups we ran into like our door pad not working, she worked with me on a solution. She was so patient and understanding. I highly recommend her!”
“Katie and Robert did an amazing job with our babies. Made sure to check in every day and provided us updates. They were patient with Charlie as he is a shy dog. I know Charlie and the kitties would be happy to see them again for a future sittings.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life since childhood, and I currently take care of my two dogs and my cat. I love teaching dogs tricks, giving calmer pets cuddles and attention, and running around with active pets! I am a commuter student with mostly online classes, so I have lots of free time. I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays anytime before 6:00 p.m.; Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 6:00 p.m.; and my weekends are available by request, feel free to message me! I will follow your pet’s routine as much as I can for drop-ins. I can handle feeding them, bathroom breaks, litter box scooping for cats, and of course giving them attention! I will attempt to handle their medication if needed, based off instructions and experience required I will be honest about whether or not I can fulfill that requirement. For dog walks, I will keep their pace and secure them on their leash accordingly.

“Sydney did a fantastic job looking after my dog and three cats for an extended period. She was very prompt on the visits, was good about providing photos of the animals, and was very good with communications, either asking when she had questions or responding to my queries. I will definitely consider using her services again, next time I travel.”
“Kaitlyn did a very good job with my dogs. She arrived on time and showed a lot of attention to BoJo who is an attention hog. She was also able to handle Mable who is very energetic with ease. I highly recommend Kailyn to take very good care of your pets and will be using her again in the future.”

I cannot say enough AMAZING things about Kelly! I honestly did not know what a good sitter was until I booked with her. She goes above and beyond. She's extremely thorough with the written description of what happened while she is taking care of your pet. She also takes the time to interact and play with your dog. She pays attention to your instructions and leaves so much detail about the visit. I truly appreciate you as a human for taking care of the most important friend (my dog) in my life. I've had previous sitters just come in and do the bare minimum or don't even interact as much as she does. That means a lot to me that she actually loves animals and takes the time to take care of yours. It makes me feel at peace that I've found someone as caring as her. Highly recommend!! Thank you again. I really appreciate you!
Ms Jennifer is hands down my favorite sitter. Having booked her for a second time, she had proven to be consistently reliable, communicative, and wonderfully caring. My dogs get so excited to see her, which speaks volumes! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my fur babies!!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Our three dogs aren’t always the easiest crew to manage, but she handled them incredibly well and quickly became best buds with all three. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and clearly has a great way with dogs. We came home to three happy pups and will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!
I would 100% recommend Kaitlyn B. She met and exceeded all of our expectations. She was very personable and easy to communicate with and gave us peace of mind that our dogs were in good hands while we were away. A bonus that made me smile was her daily updates that showed she was paying close attn to our dogs- she really captured each of their personalities and habits. I hope she is available next time we go out of town!
JaQuia was absolutely amazing with my dog! From start to finish, her communication was excellent, keeping me updated and giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that she has a genuine passion for dogs and truly cares about their well-being. My dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend JaQuia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and caring sitter through Rover. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾

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 .

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.
