About: We lost our sweet Blue (11 year old labradoodle) 3 years ago of bone cancer, and have recently become empty nesters. We LOVE dogs, and our cat has missed his canine companion. Our yard is over an acre, and includes a wooded area. We are also located near beautiful trails that we can walk to. Both of us work from home the majority of the time, and we will only open our home up to furry house guests if we are sure that at least one of us is available to be home the majority of the day. Your dog will love the extra love and attention that they will receive, and we tend to be a bit lenient with letting dogs on furniture/beds. Most of our neighbors own dogs, and there are young children next door. That being said, a dog that is friendly with other dogs and not wary of children would LOVE a vacation with us. I am working part time, and my husband works at least 1/2 of the time from home. We are flexible with dog schedules, and have experience with "elderly" dogs with special needs. We have a large yard (over an acre), which is not fenced in. Our neighborhood connects to walking trails and parks, so your dog will have ample exercise opportunities. We are extremely flexible with our schedules, and can adapt to meet your dog's current routines.
“First time using a sitter. David did a meet and greet so we felt comfortable with him. He did great and asked questions. Our dog is a bit high maintenance but David didn't seem to mind and took care of everything.”
About: I’m a disabled veteran & dogs have always been my peace so i decided to start incorporating more of them into my daily life & call it “work” 🥰 pet-loving is part of my every day life! i take my own pups for walks in the morning before the heat, and during the warmest days of winter. i love being outside, playing with animals & taking care of them! i will use the app, frequent communications in texting, etc. along with pictures and videos to send to all my pet parents! walking the pups at least a mile, if they can, or more if requested! i also walk all my clients separately from others, so no need to worry about differing personalities.
About: I have had pets my whole life. Currently I have 3 cats, 3 dogs, a hamster, and fish. I have also had bunnies, hermit crabs, and many reptiles. There is not an animal I don't love caring for or being around. I am good with animals of all ages and sizes!! I currently am a homemaker with an open schedule. I am available morning til night and overnights if needed. I have lots of time to spend with your pets! I care for every pet like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and rest, while giving them plenty of love and attention. I keep their environment clean and safe, and I make sure they get the exercise, enrichment, and companionship they need to feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for years! I had dogs growing up and I have my own cat now. I also have my own turtle! I work full time but am able to let dogs out depending on distance throughout the day. I am more than willing to spend quality time with your animal! I am able to stay/visit at houses to support your pet. I am unable to bring cats or dogs into my house due to my cat being a solo cat (her preference).
About: Hi! I’m currently in graduate school for social work and am looking to get back into pet sitting and dog walking during my freetime which is something that I have enjoyed in the past. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels and understand that each pet has their own routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, feeding, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m happy to provide reliable and attentive care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet!! I work second shift as a clinical coach at a rehabilitation center which gives me availability during the morning, early afternoons, and on many weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your pet’s normal routine, carefully follow any instructions you provide, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I treat every home with respect, keep pets secure at all times, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away
About: I have been helping take care of dogs and cats since I was 12. My neighbors growing up relied on me to walk, feed, play and care for their pets. I have done multiple month long stays at homes to care for multiple pets. I love going on walks and runs myself and adding a furry friend just makes it so much better. I also grew up with a dog and now have two kitties of my own that I rescued. I will care for your pets as if they were my own, because I know that is what I would want :) I am a waitress/bartender so my work schedule is mostly at night, so I am available to take care of your furry friends during the day! I will be sure to leave your place exactly how I found it! If wanted, I would love to take your dog to dog parks or state parks. I will play with your cats and know how to keep kitties engaged as if they were hunting in the wild!
About: I've cared for dogs since childhood and into adulthood, always either having dogs or cats. Most recently I pet sat for a yorkie for 4 days inhouse and boarded various dogs in my home. Have cared for senior pets, accommodating their special needs. Pet free at this moment so available for overnight care and boarding. I'm currently retired and my schedule is open. I can adapt my schedule and routine to your pet's needs, putting them first over my own personal life. After meeting with the pet owners, I devise a plan to make sure your pet's experience closely mirrors what they are familiar with, always making their safety and happiness the main priority.
About: started working at a grooming salon, then spent years overnight pet sitting while attending nursing school. I now have a reactive dog of my own, so I understand that every dog has different needs, boundaries, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and want both pets and their owners to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. 🐾❤️ I am a nurse so my schedule is different every week :) but don’t hesitant to reach out and ask and hopefully we are able to make something work! When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow their owner’s instructions closely, provide plenty of attention and reassurance, and make sure they have a safe, calm environment. I respect each pet’s individual personality, boundaries, and needs while keeping owners updated so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾❤️
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give. As a pet owner of two cats and a dog, I’m experienced with different personalities and needs. I also take time to work on basic training and positive behaviors while I’m with your dog, so it’s more than just a visit; it’s enriching time for them. I work 32 hours a week as a Medical Laboratory Scientist, which allows me to have a flexible schedule. I work every third weekend, but outside of that I’m available during weekdays and most weekends. I make it a priority to plan my schedule so I can be fully present and dependable for the pets in my care. I care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine and environment, which helps reduce stress. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding, medication, and any special needs. I spend quality time with each pet. Whether that’s play, companionship, or quiet time. I also keep things tidy, like cleaning litter boxes, and always ensure your home is respected and secure. I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.

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.
