“Jordyn was great with our dogs and was available to take care of them and has offered to take them on walks on a weekly basis too. She is punctual, taking the task in hand seriously while being a great help. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Natalie did a great job of taking care of my 3 pups and kitties while I was away for the weekend. She was very caring and communicative, and clearly loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Natalie was awesome! I came home to very happy cats even a thank-you note. Natalie was super reliable and communicative and totally helped me out with my last-minute request, for which I'm super grateful.”
About: I've taken care of street dogs of my childhood neighborhood and now I'm the proud father of 2 beautiful girls. I have an affinity for dogs but cats seem to have an affinity for me 😂. I LOVE walking the dogs as it is a treat for me as well. Can't wait to meet your loved one! I'm available full time and I am ready to work with you and your schedule! I'm dedicating myself to this so I can accommodate for almost anything I have a fenced yard and 2 female dogs who are very friendly and get along with other dogs. There's a yard for them to run around and a river closeby we can walk to if you're comfortable with them getting a little wet.
About: Dogs are a valued part of my life, and I love nothing more than my own dog. I know many other people feel this way, which makes it extra hard to leave them. When you can’t be there for your dog, I’d love to help bring security and peace of mind to your time away from them. I bring my dog on as many adventures as possible, biking, skiing, hiking, running- and I’d love to bring yours along too, or at least harness that adventurous spirit in your backyard, neighborhood, or local walking trail. I'm working part-time from home and away from home. Reach out! My schedule is always changing it is likely that we can make it work! I prefer to care for your dog in your home, where it’s most comfortable for them. I provide on leashed, or very long leed, activities unless there’s a good deal of confidence from the owner and myself that your dog’s recall is conducive to creating a safe environment around other dogs and hazards.
“Nancy is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She genuinely cares about my pets, and she’s always right on top of things, taking care of whatever they need. I can go away and never worry about their anxiety levels while I’m gone, because I can tell how much they love her.”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter, and Rachel set the bar so high! She went out of her way to make sure we could introduce our cats to her before our vacation and provided detailed, timely updates after every visit. Even our more skittish cat warmed up to her after just a few days, and Rachel provided extra support checking on a wound our cat got right before we left. We’re looking forward to rebooking her anytime we need pet care in the future!”
About: I’ve had my own pets (cats & dogs) for over 2 decades. My pets are my life! I currently have 2 Senior dogs. Im the go-to that sits for all of my friends’ pets. I’m comfortable with all ages of dogs and cats. I have no problem cleaning up messes or giving meds. I will treat your pups and kitties with all the love that I give my own. I recently left a job I didn’t like and decided to try something I love, which is being with animals. My schedule is pretty wide open and flexible. My prices are negotiable. I’m happy to watch your pets at your house. I’m flexible and easy going and open to ideas. Your babes will always be kept safe and happy.
“She was sweet enough to get my pets food on the way to the house. She cares about your pets! Can’t pay enough for that. Thank you so much, very blessed and grateful to have someone like you care for my pets !! 🫶🏽”
“Brandy was the best Petsitter ever! She gave both my rat terrier Annie and my kitty Lucy lots of love and attention, the pictures she took say a thousand words. She is the first sitter I’ve had who truly cares about Lucy and understands my often shy and quiet cat. They were both very happy when we came home, and were obviously well taken care of. The best thing were the detailed notes Brandy sent me, telling me what they did together and how things were going at each visit. I’ll definitely hire her again!”

I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide.

“Christina was amazing! She was understanding and patient with my anxious pup, and capable of handling my dog-reactive one. I always worry that my roughhousing, loud dogs will be too intense for people, but Christina's experience proved to be a perfect fit! I would definitely recommend her as a sitter :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Starbright Acres
We were scrambling last minute due to a medical issue. Paola stepped up quickly—helping us through a challenging time. We arrived back home with two happy kitties waiting for us. Paola was professional, kind, caring and communicative . We are very thankful for her and heartily recommend her to anyone desiring pet care.
Cydney was amazing with my puppy! She went above and beyond what I asked or expected, and I am so appreciative! My pup was instantly comfortable with her and in the short span of time that she dropped in, she was able to feed and exercise Pickles so that she got a satisfactory break from her crate. I also made a mistake in the initial booking and Cydney was flexible and worked with me, which I again am so appreciative for. I would recommend booking Cydney for any animal care that you need, she’s awesome!

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.
