“Heather did such a great job with our kitten! We had to book a last minute drop in visit and Heather went above and beyond! She made sure our kitten was fed, had a clean litter box, got playtime, and some cuddles. She even tried to fix our front porch planters that had been knock over by the storms! We will definitely be booking again!”
“Our cat is 20 years old and recently became the only cat in the house. I was nervous about leaving her alone. Shana took real good care of her and kept her from being too lonely. I will use Shana again for our next vacation.”
“Jannah was the absolute best. Kind, honest and caring. Above and beyond communicator. Felt very comfortable with her watching my pup and will trust her again in the future.”
About: Hello! I am looking forward to taking care of your loved pet! I have a dog of my own! Raised him from puppy to old man! So I know what needs to be done to take care of animals! I can provide pictures and A detail report every time I visit your pet! If you have any questions feel free to message me in the app. I am very flexible and hassle free! Caring for a pet has been apart of my life for about nine year. It’s apart of me. There is no hassle to care for any pet. My environment is baby pet and adult pet safe. I will be motioning and sending videos and photos to each and every parent often! Thanks
“Matthew is THE BEST CAT SITTER ever!!!!! My babies are just a year old, very active. When I come home from a work trip, they are so settled and well cared for. With Matthew I don’t worry about them AT ALL . Thank you Matthew”
About: I genuinely treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, intuitive, and focused on making animals feel safe, loved, and relaxed; whether it’s their first visit or their fifth. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including playful puppies with lots of energy and senior pets who need extra time, attention, and gentle handling. I’m great at picking up on a pet’s needs and adapting my care to match their personality. Whether they’re anxious, shy, energetic, or need medication, I’m calm, consistent, and always focused on their comfort. I also love sending photo updates to give pet parents peace of mind and a smile while they’re away. My goal is simple: give your pet the same love and care you would. I work from home full time, which gives me a super flexible schedule and allows me to be fully present for the pets I care for. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding routine, going out for regular walks, or just offering comfort and companionship throughout the day, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention without distractions. Because I’m home most of the day, pets aren’t left alone for long periods, and I can easily adjust to their specific needs—whether that’s frequent potty breaks, medication schedules, or just extra playtime and love. Pet care naturally fits into my daily rhythm and brings joy and balance to my work-from-home lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I create a cozy, pet-friendly environment with space to play, rest, and be themselves. I stick to their routines—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or medication—and provide lots of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day since I work from home. Pets are never left alone for long, and I always keep the space clean and stress-free. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and routines. I make sure your pet is cared for exactly the way you want—whether it’s sticking to a daily schedule, managing special needs, or simply keeping them company. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. In both cases, your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priority!
“Jason was great with our very active puppy. Reliable and communicative, Jasen helps us manage her energy with drop in visits multiple times a day. We would recommend Jasen to others!”
“She did a wonderful job with Ruby. She was very kind and passionate towards Ruby our family. Our dog really enjoyed spending time with her. Will definitely rebook her and recommend her to anyone. She will take good care of her little one”
“Scarlett was amazing with our dogs! She always went above and beyond! We actually could relax on our vacation knowing she was watching our fur babies. She was always on time and her report cards were thorough, always letting us know what was going on. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again, she has been the best dog sitter we have ever had!”
“JMark, is awesome!! I'm so glad I chose him. My Rottie Rome has really warmed up to him and looks forward to seeing him. They've quickly formed a bond and do well together. He keeps me updated on any developments concerning Rome, and we are pleased with his service. I hope he's apart of the family for a long while.”
About: have hands-on experience working with dogs in multiple dog daycare environments, where I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My experience includes supervising group play, feeding, walks, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and making sure dogs remain safe and comfortable throughout the day. I’ve also provided regular pet-sitting and one-on-one care, so I understand that every dog has different routines, energy levels, and needs. Working in dog daycares has taught me how important patience, consistency, communication, and paying attention to a dog’s body language are. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and take their care seriously. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, entertained, and comfortable while they’re in my care. 🐾🤍 Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. I currently care for Apollo, my two kittens, and a small dog, so I’m very used to building my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter care, cleaning, and giving each animal individual attention. Because I already have pets at home, I understand how important consistency and routine are. I make sure I have enough time in my day to give the pets in my care the attention they need rather than treating pet sitting like something I’m squeezing in. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for other people’s pets fits naturally into my lifestyle. 🐶🐱🤍 Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medication or basic care, and plenty of attention. I have a fenced-in home, which gives dogs a secure space to get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I also have experience caring for my own pets—Apollo, my two kittens, and a small dog—so I understand how important it is to be patient and attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines and make sure their environment stays clean and comfortable. I also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are doing well while they’re away. 🐶🐱🤍
“Josh has been absolutely amazing in sitting for Lollie. She is generally bot a huge fan of men, but she just adores Josh!! He has visited a couple of times while we are there and Lollie is over the moon for him - she wags her tail so hard I think she might throw her hip out - lol. I would recommend Josh to anyone who needs a pet sitter - he loves Lollie and she loves him back - we are grateful to have him.”
About: Each and every pet is unique in their own way and I feel it’s extremely important to cater to them accordingly based on their needs! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time five days a week, so I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care after work, as well as more flexible scheduling on my two days off. I love spending my free time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to. I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I have a fenced area attached to my back porch that allows ample space for my pups to run outside. Inside i have a large play pen with toys, beds, and everything their little hearts can desire! This creates a space for them to be comfortable and safe while I am at work during the day.
About: I love my fur babies, and I have been taking care of many different fur babes for a very long time. i’m quite experienced with my bigger breeze, my smaller breeze and my kitty best friends. I have a lot of space for them to play and have a great time and just enjoy themselves while they’re with me if you want your pets to be in a safe happy plate for environment book with me😊 I currently have an open schedule so I have all the time in the world with your fur babies and am available to give them my undivided attention! I always separate the pet to keep everyone safe and happy. And I do cage pet overnight for safety reasons. I don’t mix big dogs and small dogs
About: I've taken care of my first dog when I was 11 years old. I now have two dogs of my own. I also volunteer at the humane society as a hobby. I understand the hassle and income. Do not worry! I am here to provide my very best. I do not have ANY experience with cats. I work full time to make sure my dogs get what they need. I can do dog walking and drop-in visits during weekdays. I do not rush. I do not provide boarding. *When booking a service, please let me know before the available date. I will have no choice to decline the request.* I walk them twice a day, tummy rubs help a lot, brushing teeth, grooming, cleaning, buying them toys, closely monitoring, providing blankets, and healthy food.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters? For me, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly believe in “soul dogs,” the once-in-a-lifetime companions who leave paw prints on our hearts forever. I feel incredibly lucky to share my life with two amazing dogs of my own: Dax, my gentle 110-pound giant, and Sandy, my spirited 23-pound sidekick. Living with dogs of very different sizes and personalities has taught me how every dog has unique needs, routines, and ways of communicating. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and love I give every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks and playtime, or prefers quiet companionship and belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, understand the importance of consistency, and believe that trust is earned through kindness and reliability. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. My goal isn’t just to watch your dog—it’s to become someone they’re excited to see again. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My two dogs, Dax and Sandy, have consistent routines for feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention, and I understand how important that consistency is for every dog. I work away from home Monday through Thursday, but I have a predictable schedule with consistent departure and return times. This allows me to provide reliable care and lets pet parents know exactly what to expect. On my days off, I spend most of my time at home, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of my family. My home is a safe, welcoming environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervised play throughout the day. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can run, explore, play fetch, or simply relax in the sunshine. On warm days, I like to put out a small dog pool so pups can cool off and have a little extra fun. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers lounging outside and soaking up the fresh air, I’ll make sure they have an enjoyable stay. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

Heather is absolutely wonderful! She cares for our cat with love and affection, she tidied up our cat’s area, kept everything fresh and kept up with our home!! We can’t express our appreciation and gratitude enough!! I’m pretty sure our cat misses Heather today!! Thank you SO Much!! 5 Stars is not enough!!
Jordan was great and very attentive to my babies! She sent many pictures that eased my anxiety of being a first time user of Rover. She offered a meet and greet before so that I could meet her and make sure that she was a good match. I will definitely be using her again in the future.

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.
