About: I have been around the pup stage to the elder just wants to be fed and let alone stage. I can do both and am willing to make sure your baby is the best even when your not around. I have a flexible schedule depending on what you need! I am a little tight on certain days (Thursday-Friday Morning/Early Afternoon). But anything truly! :) I am a big believer in dog therapy so me hanging with your dog brings me joy when I can’t go back home to Raleigh and see mine. I’ll treat them just as I do my own.
“She was wonderful! She accepted my booking at the last minute when I needed someone to watch Sova during a doctor’s appointment. She listened carefully to Sova’s needs, routine, and activity level, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving her in her care. She was attentive, accommodating, and genuinely kind. I’m very grateful she was able to help us on such short notice, and I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Alyssa is amazing. Memphis is very nervous around new people abs she made sure he was comfortable with him at the meet and greet. She treated him as amazingly as if he was her own baby. Definitely will boom again.”
“Josie did a fantastic job with our 2 beagles and our newly adopted cat! She was an excellent communicator and exceeded all expectations. The dogs and cat were happy and relaxed when we got home so I know they had good care and companionship. I really appreciate Josie sending me pictures and a progress note on them while we were gone. I definitely look forward to scheduling Josie’s wonderful services again!”
“Madison was super attentive when she dropped in to care for my pets while I was at work. She was sent photos, played with them and was overall super responsive. Will definitely book again!!”
“Bonnie was wonderful! She helped us out on short notice and over the holiday weekend. We were so thankful and pleased with her response time, availability, follow-up, daily checking with pictures and overall professionalism. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and our babies were well taken care of!!”
“Laura was amazing for our last minute drop in visits request for our kitten, KitKat. We had just rescued Kit 3 weeks prior. Laura was attentive to Kit's recent entry into our home. She made sure she had fresh food and water and a cleaned out litter box to keep our stray kitty on track to a healthy place in our home. Laura is a natural cat lover and Kit knew it and felt safe with her visits while we were away. I highly recommend Laura to support your pets while you are away, she is quick to respond with excellent follow up on communication 👏 We will definitely request her services again in the future, we completely trust her in our home with our kitten.”
About: Hi, I'm Allie. I have loved and cared for animals since I was 12. I have always dog-sat and walked dogs. In addition, I worked at a local dog store in my hometown called Just Dog People. We sold dog toys, products, food, etc., and clipped and washed dogs. I have worked professionally with dogs for years, and they never fail to put a smile on my face. I am currently enrolled at ECU but have a pretty open schedule. I am available to walk dogs mornings, afternoons, and evenings Monday through Sunday! I have 4 dogs myself and they are my pride and joy. I am very respectful and have worked and cared for animals in my own home and others and have always done well. I seek to make the best experience for the pups and get all their energy out.
“Michelle is a delight and takes wonderful care of my fur kiddos. The pictures she takes shows how happy and comfortable they are with her. She makes sure their needs are met and reaches out with questions to ensure nothing gets missed.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was very hesitant and nervous! But Sabrin made me feel so much better! We did a meet and greet beforehand and she was very sweet and personable! She also communicated with me very well and I felt confident that she would keep me posted! She sent a bunch of pictures of my baby and took very good care of her! 10/10 recommend!”
“Shelby was amazing with my cat! She’s professional, kind, and attentive. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands, and I can’t wait to book her again. Thank you so much, Shelby!”
“Madison was AMAZING! She went above and beyond taking care of my cat while on vacation. I could tell my cat really got along well with her, and she sent the most lovely pictures! Will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: Growing up, my family has always had dogs in the house. I also have lots of friends who own dogs who have needed someone to dogsit or walk! I have been away from my baby doodle “Pearl” since living in Greenville for school. Being around animals makes me very happy and I’d love nothing more to help out in my free time. I am a student, so I will be available after classes. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I am available from 10:30am-12:30, then again after 3:30. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available after 3:30. On weekends, I am typically available all day! I am a theatre major so sometimes I will be participating in evening rehearsals and shows, so this will be communicated. When I am at someone else’s house, I adapt to a dog’s needs depending on their energy. If they just want someone to cuddle with for a while, or if they want to play and get all their zoomies out, I can do either! I have had two puppies and two senior dogs, so I know the spectrum and can accommodate to whatever’s needed. I can give pills with treats and food. I also like cats and am open to caring for them as well, I have had hands on experience with them! I truly see dogs and cats as little humans and always extend my upmost empathy and love to them. I have no tolerance of disrespect to these babies and will always treat them as my own.
“Sunny is a rock star!! She took such amazing care of our 5 furbabies- went above and beyond each visit with notes and pictures! She always gave me a heads up when she was heading to the house so I knew our furbabies were in great hands. She has great communication skills and treated our furbabies with such compassion. Will definitely use sunny for future visits!!”
“Jessica was awesome with our cat Bella during our out of town weekend. Always on time, updating us on everything and taking excellent care of our Bella. I would not hesitate to use for services again and very grateful for her help and care.”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stratford
Ashley is passionate about cat sitting. She was always on time, kept the litter boxes cleaned, made sure the two were fed and played with our two kittens. She constantly interacted with the kittens giving them plenty of attention and love. This was my first time using her and plan on using her again. She sent pictures from each visit. It was great to know how good the cats were being taken care of.
Stellar Care! That’s what Mango received while we were away. She had all her needs taken care of and was loved on and played with quite a bit. Sydney was also able to accommodate us when our travel plans were extended. We would not hesitate to use her services again and highly recommend her!
Clarissa was absolutely amazing! She was very helpful and respectful of my home while I was away, and she took wonderful care of KJ. Clarissa was thorough and made sure there was no room for miscommunication when it came to KJ’s care, which gave me such huge peace of mind. This was my first time navigating the app, and she even helped me through the booking process to make sure I selected the most optimal options for my needs. Her kindness, professionalism, and attentiveness truly made this experience so much easier for me. Clarissa is a true angel! 😇 I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Jessica is a wonderful pet sitter. We have been using her services repeatedly and we are absolutely comfortable when she is taking care of our precious cat Bella. She’s always on time and very well organized.She sents a lot of photos and updates us on everything that is happening and takes time to make sure everything is in order before we come home. We will gladly recommend her as a pet sitter.
Grace did a fantastic job taking care of our 4 pups! She was on time, responsible, responsive and communicative, and so sweet to the dogs - she even brought some balls for one of our dogs to fetch, as our dog had destroyed or lost her tennis ball collection! I would recommend her highly.
Thank you Mady for taking my girls last minute. Mady has been to my house a couple of times this week and my girls love her! One of my chihuahuas is very difficult and doesn’t let anyone take her out for potty breaks. Mady earned her trust in 3 visits within the same day, and by the next day my dog was happy to go out. I will be using her pet sitting service often. Thank you for the patience Mady!

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.
