“Angela was GREAT! Our cat is VERY shy and doesn't come out for strangers. I was pretty sure it would take about a week until Hayley would 'come out to play'. Angela 'talked' to Hayley each day and played music to calm Hayley. It took just a week for Hayley to came out to meet Angela and enjoyed getting brushed and petted. I will definitely use Angela again when needed. Super nice lady! Private review: Thank you so much for being so patient and taking great care of our Hayley. Being in the UK and not being able to send messages to you was a bit frustrating BUT your daily photos and notes made things much easier on our leaving Hayley for this trip. THANKS!”
“Literally a life saver! I booked last minute with her and she took care of everything with no problems. I know my dogs loved her and she’s very communicative. Will book with her again, i honestly might only book with her again haha. Thank you for everything again!”
“Jamie is amazing. She was there to take care of our 11 week old puppy. She played with him and gave him some much needed attention! She also went above and beyond and let the cats in and out when they wanted it!”
“Excellent! Always on time, worked with my changing schedule, provided great pics of my pups during drop ins, managed all my doggy gates and kept my girls separate during turn out, and came and met my pack before she accepted the gig. A+ will be rebooking.”
“Kayla did a great job with our anxious dog. She came by for a drop-in visit, took her out in the backyard, gave her the treats we left, and set up dinner. Kayla was very communicative throughout and sent pictures, which we really appreciated given how anxious our pup can get with new people. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“Anika is an excellent care taker. When I got home my kitty Beaumont was fed with a clean box and a clean space. She also administered flea treatment which was greatly appreciated.”
“Stephanie is a fabulous pet sitter. She took great care of my cat Beaumont and she fed my precious wild birds who go through bird food like crazy, so both cat and birds had reliable care for the duration of my absence. She also sent me pictures of both. She left my house cleaner that any previous pet sitter on Rover. I would definitely use her again.”
“Savannah was a great cat sitter! She was communicative and super helpful, making sure to follow our cats very specific feeding routine and misting our pet snail during each visit. Our cat is usually a very anxious boy but seemed relaxed and happy when we got back from our trip! My partner and I loved reading the updates she provided and appreciated the card she left for us. Truly a caring and dependable sitter :)”
“Dasha was absolutely fantastic. She checked in with us every day with a detailed update about our cats and the care she gave them. We looked forward to her photos every day during our trip! (She has a knack for photography!) She met with us prior to our trip to discuss the cats and the care required and we were really impressed with her level of attention and thoughtfulness.”
“Tiffany is great with our guinea pigs. She has one of her own and understands small animals. They seemed to really like her and when we came home they were happy healthy and well cared for. I appreciated her daily texts letting us know how they were doing.”
“Rachael was professional and kept our kitties happy. We felt very comfortable with her dropping in to care for our kitties, and will definitely use her services again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stanwood
Hayli has been amazing! She’s been dropping in with our pup for a month now and has always shown up on time and provided excellent care. She is reliable, communicative, and always sends great updates and photos. We’re so grateful to have found her and recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
We have been using Jamie's dog walking/drop in service for several months now. We are so happy with her, she obviously loves dogs and cats, is very reliable, has been extremely patient and flexible with our changing schedules and is always quick with responses. She's been a perfect fit for us since we recently moved and needed our pup looked in on and walked a couple times a week.

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.
