“Katrina is so loving and conscientious, she made me feel so comfortable being away! I knew my cat was being loved and cared for! I very highly recommend her for your pet for just a drop in or something else! She is kind, caring and her level of communication is exactly what any pet owner would want! 😌”

About: I’ve been a pet owner since birth. I have been watching pets and taking care of them for over 10 years. I love animals with all my heart. I currently work as a paraprofessional in an Extended School Year program during all July during the week Monday to Thursday for 4 hours. I have open availability after 1 pm and on the weekends. I will meet your pet at the their needs. I’m great at following any routine or instructions you leave for me since I love rules. If I have any question or concern, I will ask at once. I’m a problem solver so I can figure out most things before I need to interrupt a date night, vacation or work.

About: Hi, I’m Roland! 🐾 I have hands-on experience in animal shelter care, dog handling, and training. I’m passionate about understanding canine behavior and making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pup needs a walk, some company, or extra patience and understanding, I’m here to help! I’ll treat your dog like family and keep their well-being my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m fully open on Thursdays and Sundays, which allows me to dedicate focused time to walks, drop-ins, and extended care. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, I typically finish work around 2–3 PM, giving me good afternoon and evening availability. On Fridays and Saturdays, I’m usually available after around 4 PM. Because of this schedule, I’m able to be consistent, punctual, and flexible, whether it’s daily walks, check-ins, or longer visits. I plan my time carefully to make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. I maintain routines and reinforce basic training every other day to keep dogs mentally engaged and well-behaved.

About: I grew up with dogs from the age of 10. I am often called the pet whisperer by family and friends because their pets often do things they don't normally do with people they don't know well. I have a very flexible schedule and will be able to accommodate the needs of the pets to walk and feed take care of them from daily to weekly where needed. At this time I do not have any yard space or ability to have pets stay with me at my house. I am willing to stay at the pet owners home if needed or stop by for their care needs.

“Erin was fantastic. My wife was out of town for the week so I had Erin do drop-ins / walks with my 3 dogs while I was at work. The kids had an absolute ball and it gave me peace of mind that they weren’t cooped up all day alone. She was kind, caring, respectful, professional, and receptive to my pets’ individual needs be it my old guy not being able to keep up with his younger sisters or my youngest needing her scheduled eye drops during her visit. Absolutely stellar care giver for whatever your pet requires.”

About: I've proudly been working with dogs for the past 12 years! House/pet sitting since 2023 for friends and family and as my full time job since May 2025. Prior to May I was a facility manager of a local daycare/boarding facility for almost 7 years. I was responsible for the safety and well being of 30-100 dogs everyday. Prior to that I worked at a vets office for 1 & 1/2 years and before that, a Luxury Pet Hotel for 3 & 1/2 years. I have cared for 1000's of dogs, all sizes, ages and breeds. I posses a wide array of skills and knowledge, ensuring all pets are safe and comfortable. I have managed large play groups, broken up altercations, cleaned wounds and given many forms of medications. I have also cared for senior dogs, injured dogs, and sick dogs. There is not much I haven't experienced over the years. I have also owned 4 dogs of my own as an adult, I currently have 2 fur babies! Pet sitting and dog walking is my full time job. I may have to walk a few dogs here and there but my schedule is flexible. I will always ensure your dog is well cared for, going outside in a timely manner and properly exercised. I have open availability and will try my best to accommodate your requests if your pet is a good fit for my pack! I have an acre of land with a fenced in dog area. All dogs are supervised while outside and I can split play time or walks as needed. I love to take pack walks in the woods/trails and explore local parks if your okay with that! If not that's okay too, we can play fetch, indoor games and cuddle! I can crate your dog while I'm not home, or for bed time if needed. My 2 dogs Nigel and Sage are friendly and ready to play or chill with new friends. If I come to your home I can care for your pet anyway you choose, trying to keep their routine as similar to there day to day.

“Oz was absolutely amazing with our girl Kaia while we were away for a long weekend! She took such great care of her, and I could tell right away that Kaia was in the best hands. I’ve been in the animal industry for over 20 years, so I’m definitely very particular about who I trust with my pets. Oz was everything I could have hoped for in a sitter. She was caring, attentive, trustworthy, and just genuinely wonderful with Kaia. We will 100% be saving Oz as our go-to sitter for all of our future trips. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur babies. Thank you so much again, Oz, for loving our girl and taking such great care of her! 🐾💜”

About: I have worked with animals at a boarding facility and then transferred to two veterinary hospital as a technician assistant and training tech. I also own my own dog named Titan who is 9 years old and a cat named Mami who is around 3. I’m pretty well trained with aggressive pets and even messy one who tend to potty leak because of old age! I’m extremely loving with every pets and love to give them as much photo ops as I can during our play dates to update the parent :) I’m currently in school full time but attend them mostly online. On Tuesday I go from 2-4:30pm and am free for the rest of the week. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, so I’m familiar with monitoring pet behavior, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and safely handling animals. In my home and my client’s home, I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I also follow any instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, medication, crate routines, or special care. As a pet owner myself with both a dog and a cat, I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! I have watched my neighbors dog. I am always dog sitting my boyfriend’s Golden Retriever! I love teaching dogs new tricks and getting them as much activity and attention as needed! I’m currently only working weekends. Days vary as there other employees. I can make my own schedule for work most of the time if I were to have a schedule stay with your pup. I unfortunately had to put my dog to rest recently but he was so very loved for 12 years. Constantly getting walks and running around in the backyard, and MANY tummy rubs and kisses. As this time, I would not provide dog sitting in my own home, as for my parents are re doing the hardwood flooring due to the claw scratches. I treat all other dogs as if they were my own and would be more then happy to come to your house and give your dog love and attention!

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.
