“Ivy was fantastic! I appreciated her patience, understanding, and consideration with Aspen. She was kind, thoughtful and careful while Aspen became comfortable with her. Scheduling and coordinating with Ivy was a breeze. She put in time and effort to make the schedule and manage everything through Rover. I'll be using Ivy in the future, without a doubt.”
“Jessica was so great at putting me at ease with my first trip away after getting a puppy. She came on time every day, communicated so fast, and was flexible when my travel schedule changed last minute. It’s great to have a trusted resource when needed!”
“It was awesome knowing that our pets were being cared for. We didn’t worry a bit. Andrhu immediately made us feel comfortable leaving. He went above and beyond. I strongly recommend Andru to everyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“Nikki stopped in to walk and play with Cedar for an hour. It was our first time using Rover, and our dog is high energy/maintenance, but she made it low stress by doing a meet and greet and also sending us plenty of updates. We’re looking forward to working with her again in the future.”
“Susan was amazing!! She checked in on our babies while we were on our honeymoon. I recieved pictures everytime she visited. The cats loved her and seemed super happy when we came back home. I would hire her again! 10/10!!”
About: I’ve raised several dogs from puppies to adults. I consider my pets family. I pay attention to all my pets needs. I enjoy interacting with my pets including walking & various dog toys. I make sure all my pets are loved as well as fed properly & given fresh water. Taking care of pets brings me great joy. I am a retired senior. Long time animal lover looking for a way to earn some extra money. Caring for animals feels more like a hobby than a job. Having more free time then most has made this a perfect opportunity. I have a large fully fenced yard. I can tailor my care based upon your pets needs. I have a wide open home for your pets to roam. Not to mention a huge park next door which gets much use.
“We always come back from our trips, and our cat doesn’t hate us- I always credit that for Maria’s extra care and love she gives him while we are gone! She is the best of the best!!”
“HIGHLY RECOMMEND⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Natalie was super communicative, timely, she sent great pics and videos and followed instructions to a T! I’m really excited because I feel like I finally found my go to. Thank you Natalie!!!!”
“Jazmyne was fantastic! I booked her to check in on my four cats for a couple days and am happy I did. She was kind, communicative, willing to take on the challenge of feeding my monsters wet food (they are spoiled and will only eat their food if I prepare it a certain way), spent time playing with them, and left my home nice and tidy. Additionally, she was able to make my grumpy Siamese comfortable enough to run on his cat wheel! I will 100% be booking with her from now on.”
“Lauren and Ernest provided excellent care and love to our pets- we have a very temperamental cat who loves Lauren, an affectionate doggo who soaked up all the snuggles from Ernest and our lizard Rocky enjoyed a salad prepared by Lauren. The two of them have extensive pet experience and cared for our three pets like their own. Thank you!!”
About: I grew up around many animals, especially dogs! Breeds I’m most familiar with include shar-peis, pitbulls, rottweilers, and German shepherds! I’ve also taken care of bunnies, guinea pigs, leopard geckos, and bearded dragons, so no pet is too much for me! I just graduated university and am looking to return to university online to get a second bachelors degree, so I currently am not looking for a job and instead would love to be able to get out of the house and boost my serotonin by meeting people’s pets! I love cuddling with pets and seeing their personalities start to shine through as they get more comfortable! I love taking dogs on walks, seeing how long it will take a cat to choose to sit with me, and holding reptiles for as long as they like! Just being around a person’s pet while their owner is away makes me feel great since I know I’m giving the owner peace of mind while making a new friend.
“Emma was so kind and attentive with my sweet pup Pepita. She made sure all her needs were met and gave her tons of love during her drop-in visits. I would highly recommend her!”
“Danielle took wonderful care of our kitten. She always arrived on time, checked carefully on our kitten’s well-being, and made a sincere effort to keep us updated throughout the day. We really appreciated her reliability and kindness!”
About: I have owned and cared for multiple dog breeds, I dog sit a ton for friends and family. I love providing a safe and loving environment for your precious fur baby’s. I work from home which gives me incredible flexibility to provide your pet one on one attention. I have a work schedule that allows time for multiple walks and playtime. I have a fenced yard and I also have a 4 year old (neutered) male dog that loves to have play dates. I live in a nice housing development with sidewalks which enables safe dog walking. I send multiple updates and pictures to you while you’re away. It is important your pets are friendly with other dogs and well socialized. I do slow introductions with my dog to make sure they are comfortable with each other. Safety is my top priority so any dog showing aggression will be separated. Dogs will be fed separately for safety. Please have your dogs Rover profile filled out and up to date with care instructions and vet info. I do not require meet and greets, but usually have the flexibility to set up a meeting if you’d prefer. All dogs are required to wear a collar with ID tag,
“My cat Charlee was content and happy when I arrived home after a 5 day vacation. Anna's daily visits made all the difference in keeping my cat feeling safe, secure & loved.”
About: Hi! I’m an 19-year-old animal lover who’s grown up around pets and truly enjoys caring for them. I’m responsible, patient, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or quiet company, I’m happy to support your pet’s routine and give them my full attention. I’m committed to communication, reliability, and treating your pets like family. My schedule is based around my college classes. Starting in September, I will be a freshman at PLU, and I plan my availability thoughtfully to make sure I can provide reliable, attentive care.

If you ever have questions about specific dates or times, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to work with you when I can! Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I’m attentive to animal body language and pride myself on being able to understand how a dog or cat is feeling. This helps me create a calm, reassuring environment for every pet I care for. I approach all animals with patience, respect, and gentleness, and I will never force a situation that could make a pet feel uncomfortable or afraid. My goal is to ensure every pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for.
About: I've been caring for cats my entire life and have extensive experience meeting their unique needs and personalities. I also have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've provided pet sitting for family and friends, helping with feeding, playtime, and daily care. I understand how important pets are to their families and strive to provide loving, reliable care so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. care of cats since I was very young. I currently work full-time Sunday through Thursday so on those days I would stop by in the late afternoon and early evenings. I am more flexible on Fridays and Saturdays. While I'd love to welcome every pet into my home, I have multiple pets of my own and cannot accommodate additional animals in my rental home. But while I'm visiting your own, your pet's routine is important to me. While caring for your pet in your home, I follow your instructions closely and ensure all daily tasks are completed, from feeding and walks to litter box cleaning, playtime, and picking up toys.

Nikki really is awesome! We actually utilized someone else while she was taking some time away and it was even more apparent how great she is. She’s consistent, reliable and has great communication. Our pup enjoys her check-ins to help break up his day. Highly recommend 😊
She did a wonderful job taking care of Lynn while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and very accommodating with Lynn’s needs and schedule. She even offered to stop by and let Lynn out when no visit was scheduled, which I really appreciated. I felt very comfortable knowing Lynn was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!
Keri was wonderful! She was very accommodating and communicative. She really gave us peace of mind leaving our dog under her care while away. She bonded with our dog Archie relatively quick and you could tell she has a way with animals. Would book her again in the future without hesitation. All around great service and experience!
Nicole did a great job helping out with my new puppy Benni. I couldn't leave him in his crate for too long while I was at work. She was able to let him out, played with him in the back yard, and fed him his mid-day meal. Nicole was punctual, and communicated to me when she might arrive a little early/late. Would definitely recommend!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sumner stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
