About: Hi!! I’m new here and would love to get to know your dogs, take them on walks and get them some exercise and interaction :) I am a stay at home mom and have 1 fur baby myself. I’ve had all types of dogs growing up as a kid. I’ve had my schnauzer mut, Wendi, since she was 2 weeks old, started off with bottle feeding her and she’s been spoiled ever since! I often keep my brothers 3 dogs, one is an Australian shepherd/golden retriever, one is a mut and the other is a mini Australian shepherd. My family has always loved dogs and the joy they bring! I’d love to get to know your animals and help your family out. I am currently a stay at home to 4 kids. 3 of my kids are in school so I will have my youngest with me in the stroller as long as other dogs are comfortable being around kids as she remains buckled in the stroller :) I have 1 dog, Wendi, and have had her since she was 2 weeks old. I bottle fed her for 2 weeks since her mom got ran over. She loves to go on walks, play fetch outside and go to the park with all of her human siblings!
About: Pets have been a cherished part of my life for as long as I can remember. From a young age, I've always considered them true family members. The love they give to you, and being such loyal companions who deserve the same care, respect, and devotion we give to our own children. Throughout the years, I've taken full responsibility for their well-being, from feeding them on schedule, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and outdoor time, providing comfort when needed, and always prioritizing their happiness and health. I would and have gone to great lengths to ensure their safety and joy, treating them with the unconditional love they so freely give in return. I recently left my full-time job to pursue my families dream of owning and operating our own business, which we have now actually started together. With this significant life transition, I am seeking a flexible side opportunity that can generate additional income while aligning with helping those in need, all while getting to work with animals, especially dogs! When I discovered this app, it felt like the ideal combination, connecting with pet owners who require assistance with dog walking, playtime, check-ins, or basic care. It perfectly merges meaningful work, while providing companionship and support to animals. This opportunity fits perfectly with my values and allows me to make a positive difference in the lives of both pets and their owners. I am excited about the potential and eager to get started! Treating them with the care and respect they deserve, all while giving them the attention they want! I love being with them as much as they love being with us!
“Sandy is the best!! She truly loves our dog Lulu and Lulu loves her! That gives us peace of mind when we are on vacation that Lulu is in such great hands! We have been lucky enough to have had Sandy every time we needed her for Lulu! She goes the extra mile, even by leaving us, cute picture, keychains, and refrigerator magnets of our sweet dog!”

“Jeanette is so warm with my dogs and adapts to each of their personalities. She’s very patient with my shy girl and playful and loving with my dogs that are ready for a new friend. Jeanette made going back to work much less stressful”

About: I've taken care of my Welsh Corgi for over 9 years, and before him I had taken care of my own cats. I work really with high-energy pets who would like walks, runs, or just play. I work in the Houston area while attending the University of Houston, and on my off-days from class I have flexibility to still be in Houston and have a free schedule for your needs. I cared for my pets through constant attention, enrichment, and exercise. A tired pup is a happy pup when he's had a full morning or afternoon out. For those lazy days, I've also curled up to my pets with a book in hand.
“Brittany is the BEST when it comes to taking care of your fur babies! She loves them as her own, and goes above and beyond with communication sharing text updates with photos and videos for you to see the joy your animals are experiencing in her care. She will treat your animals as family, book her today for exceptional snuggles and love when you are away!”

About: I’m a caring and dependable dog lover with 5 years of pet-care experience. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they stay on their normal routine. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while your fur baby is in my care. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, or simply some extra companionship, I’d love to help! 🐶💜 I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time caring for pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting around my work schedule, with additional availability on evenings and weekends. I’m happy to discuss specific scheduling needs with each pet parent. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and cared for. I always follow each pet’s routine, feeding instructions, medication needs, and house rules. I also make sure doors, gates, and outdoor areas are secure and supervise pets closely. I’m happy to keep pets separated from my own dog when needed.
“Brittany was super helpful in helping watch our dog when we made a last minute request! She was very responsive when we texted her, and made sure our dog was worn out from playing ball before we got home! Highly recommend Brittany!”

“This is the third time I’ve booked Britteny! I have upmost trust in her taking care of my fur babies! I know when I’m away, there are no worries about whether my babies are being cared for well! I will definitely book again and you should too! Thank you Britteny!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from puppy age to senior age. With my experience I’ve learned how to properly care for all ages & personalities. My current job I work only on weekends. During the weekdays I am home and have plenty of time to give your animal the attention and care needed. I have one female chihuahua weenie dog and one male schnauzer. Both are rescue dogs. They are crate trained and very friendly. I also have a good size backyard for a lot of playtime.

About: Caring for animals isn't just something I do it's something I truly love. It all started with my first job as a dog bather, where I learned how to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. That passion grew into earning my Veterinary Assistant license in high school, followed by two years of hands on experience as a Kennel Technician first at a boarding facility, then at a veterinary clinic caring for dogs and cats of all ages and needs. Let's set up a meet and greet so I can start spoiling your pet! 🐶🐱 I’m currently freelancing, which means I have plenty of availability for daily walks, drop-in visits, and home care the perfect way for your pet to get all the attention, exercise, and love they need while you’re away! 🐾 I'll keep your dog or cat's routine steady with feeding, playtime, and lots of love, while your home stays clean and cozy. I'll send photos and videos along the way, so you always have a little smile waiting for you. 🐾📸💕
About: Hello There! I’ve been a loving dog owner since the age of 7. My parents got me a Pomeranian named Chloe and I’ve loved dogs ever since. I have two small pups of my own right now (a Shih-Poo and a Boston Terrier), so I’m used to big personalities in small bodies, lots of energy, and all the little quirks that come with small breeds. I also did a puppy training program with my Poodle-mix, which taught me a lot about building routines, positive reinforcement, and just understanding puppy behavior in general. So whether your dog is still in that wild puppy stage or they just need some extra patience, I have PLENTY of experience. I’m gentle, attentive, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will always be safe, cared for, and paid attention to with me. I send updates, I pay attention to the little things, and I make sure your baby feels comfortable while you’re away. I’m very relaxed, and my dogs have full freedom to roam around their home — and I will make sure guest get that same comfort and freedom while still being safe and supervised. I work from home, so my babies go out every 2 hours for potty breaks, plus a good walk before or after my shift. Your dog will fall into that same routine with me - breaks, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. When time permits, I love taking them to the on-site dog park (only when the dogs are alone though) Your fur baby’s safety is my top priority. My home is clean, calm, and fully dog-friendly. I supervise all play, keep doors secured, and make sure every dog is comfortable, safe, and understood. I treat every dog with patience and respect. I’m gentle, responsible, and I pay attention special attention to their individual personalities to make sure they are comfortable. My babies have free roam in a safe environment, and any dog in my care gets that same comfort while still being watched, loved, and protected. “You can trust that your dog will never be left alone for long, and they’ll always be in a space designed for their safety and peace of mind.

About: Fur babies have always been a part of my family, even before I was born. I’ve always had a deep love for them and genuinely enjoy caring for them. That bond is especially strong with my fur baby, Mazi, who currently lives with her grandmother. I work from home and am available for bookings with at least 48 hours’ notice prior to the requested start date and time. I am also available on weekends and can offer flexibility to accommodate your schedule when needed. I reside in a gated apartment community that features a designated dog park and multiple walking areas, providing a safe and enjoyable environment for outdoor time, exercise, and fresh air. Inside my home, there is ample space for your pet to move freely and play comfortably. I do not use crates or indoor confinement unless specifically requested by the owner.

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 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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.
