“Dani was absolutely amazing! We booked her with short notice on a holiday weekend and she agreed without hesitation. I loved all the updates and seeing all the amazing pictures she got of our dogs. Our dogs absolutely loved her and they were well taken care of while we were gone. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Taylor was a great friend to my fur baby Misty! She came every day and was reliable, communicative and soooo loving to my girl. I could tell from the updates and photos Taylor sent that Misty was enjoying her time with Taylor and Taylor enjoyed her time with my kitty too! I asked her to take care of a few special things to prepare for the extra stress of the Fourth of July and she did them as requested. She also brought in packages we received in our absence. She is a kind and caring young woman and I highly recommend! Thank you Taylor!”
“Robert was amazing with my two dogs! He kept me updated with photos and took great care of them while I was away. They were happy and relaxed when I got back. Highly recommend him!”
“Robbyn is incredibly professional, reliable and respectful of my home, my animals opened up quickly to her, to which I was surprised. I would absolutely book her again.”
About: I've owned or help own several dogs. My family has 3 currently. I love animals so I volunteer for and ride horses, care for dogs and feed the feral cats in my neighborhood. I'm perfect for someone who needs a quick, cheap, consistent service. Currently available to walk or drop-in with pets from 2-5pm on Wednesdays only. I am a very good listener and a gentle handler. I instill some consistent walk etiquette but I am not a dog trainer! I am here to keep me and your pet walking and safe. I have a fenced in backyard and several parks nearby. My neighborhood is walkable. Your pet will never be far from water, food, space or comfort.
“Stacy was great. Friendly and did exactly as I had asked. She was able to deal with the lazy dog and the crazy ones which is always important for me when finding someone to take care of them.”
About: For as long as I can remember, I’ve had the joy of caring for animals of every size and personality. From dogs and cats to birds and fish, I’ve spent a lifetime giving animals the love, attention, and structure they need to feel safe and happy. I’ve been involved in competitive field trials, obedience training, and plenty of everyday fur baby fun, and those experiences have taught me how to connect with pets in a way that feels natural and reassuring. Whether through boarding at my house or drop in visits at yours you can be assured your pet will be well taken care of. Your pet will enjoy our fenced‑in backyard, daily walks, and plenty of one‑on‑one attention. I share my home with two children, two dogs, and three cats, so we understand exactly how important it is to have a dependable sitter your family can trust. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely to include: feeding schedule, playtime, medications, and any other special instructions because consistency helps them feel right at home. I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own, and I’m committed to giving them a safe, loving, and comfortable stay every time. I have a flexible and accommodating schedule to for weekday and weekend boarding or drop in visits. I can be available for most last minute request and would love to take the stress out of finding someone to watch your pets. I have a fenced in yard that offers plenty of room to run and play. When not outside, your pet will be able to roam free in the downstairs of our house while being entertained and closely monitored.
“Christian did a great job with our cat drop-in visit. He was on time, made sure their water was topped off, spent time playing with them, and sent plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. It was obvious he genuinely cared about making sure they were comfortable and cared for. We’d definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Jazmin was great! I had to book somewhat last minute, and Jazmin was able to even make some additional visits while my husband was away. Will definitely keep contact info for future visits!”

“Rebecca did an amazing job caring for justice. She made sure to cater to her every need, even adjusting times when needed. I usually kennel justice when I go away so this was my 1st time using this type of service and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Rebeccah for taking such good care of my baby and calming my nerves.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I've spent years working with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have a dog of my own, Wesson, and I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or relaxing at home, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for all breeds and temperaments, from energetic working dogs to laid-back couch companions. I also have experience with dogs that use training tools such as e-collars and prong collars and can follow your dog's established training routine and preferences. When your dog is in my care, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I'll treat them like one of my own and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and one-on-one attention into our day. Because I'm home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods, and I can easily accommodate their individual needs and routines. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and structured environment. I have a securely fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and exercise, as well as a multi-level home that allows me to separate pets when needed. If a dog is crate-trained or requires their own space, I can accommodate that and ensure they have a quiet area to relax. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and any training routines provided by the owner. My goal is to make pets feel at home while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their established routine and environment. I make sure pets receive consistent care, companionship, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any special accommodations they need. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away.
“Lauren took care of my sweet Bailey like she was her own. From the moment they met, Bailey was completely smitten, and I can’t blame her. Lauren has this calm, loving energy that dogs (and people) instantly trust. She made sure Bailey was happy, safe, and spoiled with attention, and I never once had to worry. She’s attentive, patient, and somehow knows exactly what a dog needs before they even ask for it. I swear Bailey was happier than ever when I came back from work... probably because she spent her days with someone who truly loves the animals she cares for.”
“Awesome sitter. Was very patient and considerate of our baby girl and took well care of her. Also was very helpful and flexible in a last minute change to schedule. Definitely will be picking Madison again on any future trips to watch our pets”
About: I’ve had many dogs in my life. I honestly couldn’t see myself being without any type of animal. Family and friends call on me when they need any assistance and advice when it comes to animals. My experiences range from dog and cat sitting, potty breaks, feeding reptiles, changing enclosures and bedding, to even helping with puppy birth! I’m working a part-time job that keeps me occupied four days out of the week. Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays are my available days, so I can pretty much do all the pet sitting needed for those three days. If needed; on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday’s; if a pet sitter is needed between the hours of 5:00a - 11:30a, then i am more than happy to provide any help with keeping your fur babies company! I have two puppies of my own that are very well trained. However, I do live off of a highway. With this being said, I do feel more comfortable with providing petting services at the clients home or a local dog park with permission.

Lex was so kind and considerate with Mickey. Mickey very clearly liked her a LOT and he was not nearly as clingy as usual when I got home which indicated to me that she must have spent quality time with him. She brought in all the mail, refilled the water fountains, opened and closed blinds, cleaned the litter box as well. Lex is a Saint!
Christian did a great job with our cat drop-in visit. He was on time, made sure their water was topped off, spent time playing with them, and sent plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. It was obvious he genuinely cared about making sure they were comfortable and cared for. We’d definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.
Jade was the best sitter we’ve ever seen! She not only took care of our dog, she went above and beyond by grabbing our mail and packages but also bringing in our trash cans. She’s truly a blessing and kept our minds at ease. Thank you again Jade and I look forward to using your services in the future. You’re the best!!!!

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 .

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.
