“I wish Dorothy lived closer to our home and was doing Rover full-time. She actually stays for 15-25 minutes to check on your kitties and coax them out of the closet. Attention to detail and reading the kitties needs is her specialty. Hoping to work with her again in the near future. Our dog Sadie could really use someone like Dorothy as well.”
“Karinne is so kind to my animals and always goes above and beyond to provide good care for them. I am her repeat customer and couldn't be any happier with her service. Definitely recommend her.”
About: I have offered care for various animals, people and plants for nearly 25 years! I have now ventured into owning a homestead and ever learning farming care and practices. Pet care fits into my daily and Weekly routine with ease as I am home caring for my home and children as well so why not care for others! I have 5 fenced in pastures totalling 5 acres. I have multiple sized crates. I do have my own animals so crate trained Pets are best for us but it's not a deal breaker! I have my own GS pup who loves a new friend and an old lady border collie who isn't as friendly but leaves everyone alone. I am cat friendly and open to other pets as well!
“Cecilia was amazing!!! She watched our 3 dogs while we went camping. I was a bit nervous since one of our dogs was more newly integrated into our house, Cecilia handled it all so well! Communicative but not overly so, calm and trustworthy. We’ll definitely book with her again. I feel relieved to have found a good fit for our pack ☺️”
About: Hi! I’m Amy, a lifelong dog lover who understands that pets are family. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities through pet sitting, house sitting, dog walking, and helping friends and family care for their pets over the years. I have experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications, playtime, potty breaks, and providing companionship while owners are away. I’m active, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I also work well with shy, energetic, and senior dogs, and I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout each stay so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: to treat your pets like they’re my own. My schedule is flexible and varies month to month, allowing me to accommodate many different pet care needs. I prioritize following your pet’s normal routine, including walks, feeding times, playtime, and any special instructions, so they can stay comfortable while you’re away. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in the environment they know best. Before each stay, I take time to learn your pet’s habits, preferences, and any special instructions to ensure personalized care. I treat every home with respect, maintain a clean and secure environment, and provide regular photo and text updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: With years of experience in dog care including breeding and pet sitting many different breeds such as; Labs, Pit bulls, German Shepards, Dachshunds, and Corgis for our friends and family, I have developed a deep understanding of differentiating canine needs. Above all, I believe in patience and consistency, ensuring that each dog feels cared for whether they’re with me for a short period or a long stay. I only work 3 days a week and have a very flexible schedule which would make it easy for me to care for other dogs. I also have a very helpful partner I live with who also loves animals. I have a fully fenced yard with two very friendly corgis. Our spacious yard provides plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore safely. We have a doggy door so they have easy access to get in and out. We live in a very safe neighborhood with lots of pet friendly trails.
About: I have a 4 month old mini bulldog that loves to skateboard. Check out sk8_zuko on IG for some cool vibes. Love dogs and want my boy to grow up being comfortable around all breeds. Evenings and some weekends. Started a new job recently and getting the hang of it so my schedule is varied right now. Will definitely need to discuss availability. Big fenced yard in downtown Puyallup with one cool doggo. Landmines are picked up regularly. Your pup will be loved and taken care of. Scooby doooby dooo!! Maybe go on some mystery hunts...😅

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
