“Anthony did amazing with drop-in visits for my bunny. Despite being new to caring for a bunny, he didn’t bat an eye to accept a request and help care for her over the holidays. He was super attentive to the unique care she needed. He is trustworthy, communicative, and punctual. He will be my go-to from now on for any pet needs in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals and have been around them for most of my life. I’ve had cats since I was 5 and dogs since I was 10, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my everyday life. During college, I was far from home and really missed spending time with my own pets, so I started pet sitting regularly. It became a great way for me to still have animals in my life while helping other people care for theirs. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I work remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to care for your pets, take them on walks, play with them, or simply keep them company. I’m generally available during the day as well as evenings and nights. I just need a little notice so I can organize my schedule around your pet’s routine. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I always follow the owner’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I’ll make sure they have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention and company. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

About: For the past 16 years, I’ve been fully dedicated to caring for my dogs. From daily walks, feeding, bathing, and playtime to giving them unconditional love and attention—they’ve always been a huge part of my life. I’ve raised four dogs in total; I currently have three, and one sweet pup who passed still lives in my heart. Loving animals has been second nature to me since I was two years old when we got our first dog, and I treat every pet like family. I just ended my gap year program so I’m completely free everyday all day except for Friday nights and Saturday during the day because I’m Jewish and I observe shabbos.

My goal is to make sure your dog feels relaxed, loved, and right at home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Surfside
Jessica is one of thee BEST pet sitters I have ever had! For real! 😃 She goes above & beyond to make your pets feel comfortable and happy. My 2 cats instantly loved her when she walked in the room and approached her. She has a wonderful personality, a calming sweet aura, and just so kind. I will absolutely hire her again whenever I go on a trip home. My cats look so happy 😀 in all the photos n vids she has sent!
Leo has been very responsible when taking care of my two cats, who are also really shy. I could even tell from the photos that he was able to gain their trust in a short amount of time, which is quite difficult to do. I would definitely book him again without hesitation and highly recommend him
Marianna was absolutely wonderful with Thor. She was communicative, sent detailed updates with photos after every visit, and clearly went above and beyond — even navigating flooding from a storm to make sure she got to him on time. She noticed small details, like mixing his leftovers with fresh food and topping off his water fountain, and made sure he felt safe and comfortable the whole time I was away. Thor was clearly relaxed and well cared for by the end of the trip. I’d trust her with him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like family.
Any is amazing!!! She took such great care of our two cats and managed to administer the medicine like a champ to one of them. She was always sending us videos and photos so we could see how well they were doing. Any, thank you again for taking such wonderful care of our cats!
Jaylan is calm, kind and patient. One of my cats loved her and the other (who only loves me😂) seemed to take to her also. She did just as I had requested for the time I was away, which I appreciate- as the biggest part was just spend some time with them so they wouldn’t get lonely or stressed. I would definitely recommend her.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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 .
