“Nicole was fantastic! She was very kind, professional, and easy to communicate with. She responded quickly to my messages and kept me updated throughout the visit. I really appreciated that she sent me a photo of my dog—it gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was happy and in great hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I would definitely book with Nicole again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog walker!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, and lizards my whole life. I will spoil your pets based on what the owner allows me to do. I have an 11 year old Boxer who loves companion ship of all animals. Currently I am unemployed so pet care is my main focus. When I’m not taking care of my 11 y/o Boxer and 1 year old Bearded Dragon I’m looking up ways to make my animals more happy I will take dogs on walks at least 2 times a day and will take them to dog parks to run around. I have a 11 year old Boxer that will keep your dog company too. This household is cat friendly as well and will treat the cat like a king/queen that they believe they are.
“Doreen was great! She came within hours of me making a VERY last-minute request and was so nice. She sent photos of my babies every time she came to see them. Thank you Doreen!”
“Katie is very reliable and caring. She took good care of Wrigley for a week while we were on vacation. Wrigley was very happy to see her every time. I would definitely recommend Katie.”
“Madeline was fantastic with our cats, Ben and Chloe! Her professionalism and communication were top-notch. We were impressed by her dedication and care, which made our time away worry-free. Would highly recommend her!”
“Stephanie was great! We have two crazy dogs with a lot of energy so it was great that Stephanie was so flexible with her schedule so the dogs weren't cooped up in the house all day. She fed them and let them run around in the yard. I will definitely have her come by again in the future!”
“Lyssa is amazing with my puppy and working around my ever changing schedule. She is always on time and I never have to worry about my pup. The pictures she sends of my puppy during the visits, my dog looks really happy. Glad I chose Lyssa out of all of the local people on Rover.”
About: I am new to professional pet care, but I have a genuine love for animals and enjoy spending time with dogs. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I am excited to provide safe, caring dog walks and drop-in visits and treat every pet like my own. My work schedule varies from week to week but I’m flexible and always make time for pet care. I’m usually able to fit in dog walks and drop in visits on most days, depending on timing. I enjoy being active and spending time with pets, so I will do my best to accommodate requests and keep communication clear. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, attentive presence during walks and drop-in visits, making sure each dog feels secure and cared for. I stay alert to surroundings, use safe handling practices, and always respect each pet’s individual needs and personality.
“Rachael is an excellent pet sitter! She was always very punctual and thorough with her pet care (2 cats and a dog). She was careful to follow my written instructions to keep their schedules as close to normal as possible. Her daily logs about her visits were detailed and fun to read! And lots of cute pictures! She is very sweet and kind and I would not hesitate to ask for her help again!”
“So happy Jessica was available to drop in for my Golden Retriever on short notice. She fed and walked her and provided lots of photos throughout. Thanks for caring for Samantha!”
“Eloise was amazing with my dog and cat and I know they are in such good hands with her! I really appreciate her flexibility and attention to detail with both of my babies and their various needs. I was able to fully enjoy my time away because I knew they were well taken care of. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Kaileigh was so great to my pups! I was happy to find someone that lived near me. She treated my pups as her own. She kept in contact with me and sent my photo updates, I loved that! I would highly recommend her to watch your furbabies.”
“Becca was amazing! She agreed to three drop-in visits with less than 24 hours notice. She was on-time for every visit, followed the instructions we had left, made sure that both of our dogs were well taken care of and even spent some time with them. Everything went so well that we've asked Becca to be our regular sitter. ?”
About: I've raised all my dogs from puppy to senior (oldest 16 years). All kinds of dogs too, from corgy to lab, so I'm ready for anything. Currently unlimited availability. I'm up early and ready to see nature. Availability change in a few weeks to weekends. I'm excited to make new dogs friends. I'm a walker and a runner so I'll be walking them frequently and if they can handle it, I'll walk them to the nearby lake path.

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.
