About: Hi, I’m Ainsley! Dogs have been a massive part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my home was always filled with paws—giving me firsthand experience raising energetic puppies, keeping up with active adult dogs, and providing gentle, attentive care to sweet senior dogs. I’ve spent years pet-sitting for family members, treating their fur babies exactly like my own. Whether your dog needs a high-energy brisk walk, a slow and sniff-filled stroll, or just some extra patience and TLC, I’ve got you covered. I can’t wait to meet your pup and become their new favorite walking buddy! I have a fairly open schedule while school is out for the summer! I’m available most mornings for check-ins and walks, and most evenings for over night care. I’m willing to adapt to any space! I have plenty of experience with all types of animals, and am confident that I can care for yours.
“Aubrey did a wonderful job watching over our cats again while we were away. We have an elderly cat with some simple medications that was well taken care of. All 3 of our cats were loved and played with each visit. We are very happy with Aubrey's services, including updates and cleanups.”
“Emma is so extremely helpful, and very thorough with taking care of our fur babies! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Emma for being extra thoughtful and going above and beyond with your care!”
“Hayley was amazing with our cat Hallie. Our cat is very shy but she was a big fan of Hayley! We are so grateful for her taking such great care of our cat while we were away. It was great having peace of mind while on vacation and the check in photos were perfect.”
“Kaylee did a wonderful job for the weekend for us. Giving our cats attention, monitoring mail and package delivery , as well as watering plants that needed it. Glad she was available to care for the cats at the last minute.”
“Kimberly has done drop in visits and walks for our two fur babies when I am gone on work trips. She takes time to get to know your pet(s), has no problems with specific instructions, always prompt and sends updates and photos regularly. I highly recommend her services!!”
About: Pets are members of our family, and our family deserves to be taken care of. I absolutely adore animals, I have pets of my own, and they are my whole world. I have an adorable Maltese named Fizzgig and a Black Cat named Thackery Binx. Prior to this dog, I had a Maltese named Tinkerbell. I just want to be able to care for other animals as I have cared for mine. We all have responsibilities that keep us away from home most days, and we want to be sure our little fur babies are well-cared for in our absence. I can promise you that I will provide to their every need, and maybe even spoil them a little bit! I’m a published author, and I spend way too much time locked up inside writing. I need to get out and walk and have a break from the soul-sucking experience of sitting in front of the screen all day. I hate sitting idle. I have too much energy. Dogs have too much energy. It's a perfect match! I need something else to keep me moving in a day, and playing with precious animals seems like the perfect job! I can crate or leash dogs to ensure they will not run away, and if your cat is exclusively a house cat, I am well accustomed to keeping those quick felines from darting outdoors.
“Jackie did an excellent job taking care of our two cats. She was willing to meet before our trip so I could go over some of their specific needs. She was so sweet and I felt assured they would be in good hands. When she dropped in each day, she was sure to send pictures and videos of them while we were gone and texted any questions that came up. Her kids played with them and they were well taken care of. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Shelby! I’ve been pet sitting for over 12 years, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with both dogs and cats gave me a lifelong love for animals of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’m comfortable administering oral medications when needed and always take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. While I haven’t administered injectable medications yet, I’m eager to learn and am happy to follow your veterinarian’s instructions or the routine you’ve established if appropriate. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, bedtime, and all the little details that help them feel at home. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I’m fortunate to have many wonderful repeat clients who trust me with their furry family members time and time again, and I’m happy to provide references upon request. When I’m not at work, you can usually find me spending time with the pets in my care. I know how important consistency, companionship, and enrichment are, so you can expect your pets to receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, cuddles, and lots of love. Communication is one of my top priorities. Throughout your booking, you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pets are doing. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing they’re safe, happy, and being treated like family. I work a regular afternoon/evening schedule on some weekdays. Before accepting a booking, I’ll always discuss my availability with you to make sure it’s the right fit for your pet’s needs. If your pet requires frequent potty breaks or can’t be left alone for extended periods, we’ll make sure we’re a good match before confirming the booking. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work full time swings typically 3p-10/12p it varies during the week. When I’m not working I’m a home body so your pets will have company with them most of the morning. I do know my schedule usually a month in advance so I am able to let you know before you officially book and you can decide if it works for you. I prefer to stay in their home which allows them to stay comfortable and in their own environment, new places can cause fur babies unnecessary stress and no one wants that. I prefer to keep their routine as normal as possible as well so if they get fed at 5 am I set an alarm to ensure they get fed at their normal time as well.
About: I can care for any pet whether it’s small creatures to farm animals! Since I was a kid I’ve taken care of farm animals by feeding and topping off water or bottles feeding, changing bedding, brushing and more. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs by taking them for walks, bathing, brushing, clipping nails and making sure they have food and water. I have a LaBernese Dog of my own and I had an Hedgehog that Sadly passed due to old age. I currently live with two other dogs that I also help care for. I have dog grooming experience same with boarding and daycare experience from previous jobs. I have plenty of free time I’m available all day everyday even weekends! For walks I can starting from 7am and as late as 10pm. I have a fenced backyard and my dog loves all dog! Your fur baby will have all the space they need with a decent to big backyard if in my house. If not I can provide good exercise either on walks/runs or in the backyard if one is provided. We can also do play time for your pet or just relax depending on your pets energy level. I will clean up any mess including bedding , poop, litter boxes, throw up and a lot more. I will also leave your house the same or better than I found it for your convenience.
About: Hi, I’m Rebecca! I’ve been caring for animals for nearly 30 years and working professionally with them for over 12 years through rescue, boarding, training, and rehabilitation. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly love what I do. Every pet that stays with me is treated with the same care and attention I give my own! I hold advanced dog training and animal behavior certifications, and I’m also certified in Animal CPR and First Aid, so your pup(s) will be in experienced, loving, and capable hands! Over the years I’ve worked with many different breeds and personalities, and I understand that every dog adjusts differently when away from home. Some dogs want to play all day, while others just want a quiet place to relax, and I do my best to make sure each dog feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I also have plenty of experience providing routine care and medications when needed, including pills, injections, and topical treatments. If your dog has special care instructions, I’m happy to follow their routine as closely as possible so they feel right at home. Dogs staying with me enjoy a large, fully fenced yard, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention and cuddles throughout their stay. Dogs go outside about once per hour while I'm home, and I return every 2–3 hours when I need to step out. My two very friendly dogs and four animal LOVING kids (9, 13, 14, and 16) help make sure visiting pets get plenty of playtime, affection, and mental stimulation, while still maintaining calm areas for your pups to have a comfortable place to decompress and relax. In addition to boarding, I also offer training services and yard cleanup services if you're interested. Please feel free to reach out for more information or a quote. I’m also happy to care for reptiles, birds, and other small animals as well. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work full time in a flexible position that allows me to work from home a good majority of the time, or return home as needed while I am away. My job is only about 5 minutes away, and on days I’m away I come home every 2–3 hours to check on/let out the animals. I also have cameras in the home so I can keep an eye on everyone, and I’m able to return home quickly if anything needs my attention. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play during their stay. There’s plenty of room for exercise, and I keep toys in the yard so dogs always have something fun to do. The yard is also covered by security cameras, so I can keep a watchful eye on everyone even if I step inside for a moment.
“Ilina did a great job with my babies. One of them is timid, but she became good friend with her! She has great communication and respectful. I am glad to find her and will recommend her to anyone who needs help.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sunset
Lisa is a wonderful animal caretaker! She took very thorough notes and asked great questions, it was very clear early on that she is experienced with animal caretaking. Our cat, Shishi, is elderly, battling IBD, needs several oral medications and is a feisty gal. We went on a 6 day backcountry river trip and knew we needed someone experienced to care for her while we were away. Lisa administered all Shishi’s medications with no issues, fed her the very specific meal regimen that Shi is on, kept her company, and cleaned up after Shishi had several diarrhea accidents outside of the litter box. Lisa communicated well and sent many cute pictures. In short — Lisa is a rockstar, we will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her!
Amazing and responsive sitter, truly above and beyond. My dog had an emergency (stressed induced diarrhea) and Emma was able to bring him to the vet and take care of him while I was gone, she cleaned up after him and kept me updated the whole time. I’ve never had such a compassionate and quick to respond sitter before, you are truly getting an absolute saint if you book her! Thank you so much Emma

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 Sunset 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. 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
