About: I’ve been a pet haver since childhood and a pet owner for 4 years. My primary experience with dogs are of the medium to large variety such as border collies and labradors. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters to play with and walk dogs dogs along with cleaning their space. I’m currently a full time teacher and is available in the afternoon, weekends, and holidays. On weekends and holidays I’m able to stay for extended periods of time. I’m pretty big about respecting boundaries pets are demonstrating through their actions or reactions. I’ve also huge on personal safety and the wants/needs of the owner.

I can bathe them if need be! If they stay over night they can sleep in the bed with me. Just like a kid , if you don’t allow something then nor will I !

Wether that be in your home or mine; they will have similar schedules. In my home: the garage is shut before the main door is opened. My yard is fenced and locked and they will never go out alone. I say that so you know your baby will not have the freedom to attempt escape.
About: I've cared for friends' dogs and cats over the years and have a cat of my own. I also spent lots of time with my husband’s dog. I'm comfortable with pets of all kinds and love giving them the attention and care they need. I work full-time during the day, but I'm available for pet care in the late evenings, at night, and on weekends. Whether it's drop-ins, or walks, I’m happy to help when I’m off work! I'm a trustworthy and responsible pet caregiver, and if your pet is staying with me, they’ll be in a safe, loving environment. My home has a spacious, fenced yard where they can play and relax securely.
About: Living the WFH dream! I’m so lucky to be able to spend my workdays curled up with furry friends. I love getting to know animals — their boundaries, personalities, quirks, and needs. I especially like multi-day stays because it allows animals time to adjust to a new presence and settle back into their routine. I work from home Monday-Friday, so I’m available for pet care all day any day! I’m able to work into my day things like play time, walks, and cuddle time. When I’m caring for your pet, I’m also caring for your home and the environment around them. I’m more than happy to tidy up, bring in the mail, water the plants, whatever is needed to keep things running. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to deliver care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and calm. Transitions are hard, and I know how crucial consistency is to reducing an animal’s distress when the pet parents go out of town.
“We had a wonderful experience with McKensi caring for our cats, Wyatt and Daisy. She is incredibly reliable and detail-oriented, and we always felt confident that our cats were in great hands. She kept us updated and gave us complete peace of mind while we were traveling. We highly recommend McKensi to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have raised my two pups from the puppy stage all the way into their senior years, so I’m very used to all the different stages and personalities that come with dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, brushing, basic routines, and of course lots of love and attention. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family plenty of times, so I know how important it is to keep your pup on their normal routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog is super energetic, shy, cuddly, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll treat them like one of my own and send you plenty of cute updates along the way! I work a full-time office job Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM. I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, which gives me more flexibility for daytime drop-ins, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins on those days. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I’m generally available for visits before 7 AM and after 5 PM. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I can usually accommodate morning, lunchtime, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the timing and location. My weekends are very flexible, and I’m typically available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, longer visits, and pet sitting. I know pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I always try my best to work around their usual feeding, potty, walk, and medication schedule. Feel free to message me with the times your pet normally needs care, and we can see what works best for both of us and your pup! I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I’ll always treat your furry baby like I would my own. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll also keep a close eye on their behavior and surroundings, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m more than happy to send pictures and little updates during each visit so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well taken care of!

“We’re so glad that Amanda was available to care for our cats while we were out of town over Thanksgiving. She took such great care of our boys, we always looked forward to her updates knowing that Ghost and Ollie were happy and well cared for.

“Moving to a new place was tough on me and my fur babies. Dylan made sure to take care of all of us by keeping me informed while I had to be away, and taking care of my boys and place as if it were his own. I truly appreciate the top tier level of attention and care Dylan provides, and how intentional he is every step of the way with each visit. Thank you so much for making our transition easier, Dylan!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I believe every pet deserves love, patience, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I take pride in being dependable, responsible, and attentive to details. Whether your pet needs feeding, fresh water, companionship, playtime, or simply someone to check in and make sure they're comfortable, my goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized care. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I respect the instructions and preferences of each pet owner.

When caring for pets in their own homes, I believe in maintaining their normal routines and following all instructions provided by their owners. I will make sure pets have fresh water, appropriate meals, a clean environment, and plenty of attention based on their individual needs. I am respectful of each client's home and understand the importance of keeping doors secured, following feeding schedules, and paying attention to each pet's behavior and comfort.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sunnyvale
Ava is seriously the absolute best sitter we could have asked for! She sent cute pics and checked in as soon as she saw that our pup had a little cut on her ear (from our darn cat), but she genuinely looked out for our 2 dogs and cat, and I was not worried about them for one second! We were gone 3 days and she was always right here for them. I can tell through the pics that they got so much love :) AND she went above and beyond and cleaned the cat box and picked up the dog poop in the yard, which she for sure didn’t have to do!! She just wanted to help out. Very easy to communicate with, very fast to respond, and very sweet! I will contact her first any time we need someone for the animals :)

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
