About: I’ve always had dogs of all ages and breeds in the family. It is fulfilling giving dogs their best life possible. We will treat your dogs like part of our family. I have a flexible job that allows me to provide care for animals throughout the day. My wife is also extremely involved and we enjoy spending our time around animals. I have a mini golden doodle and am constantly aware of the potential dangers to her. My main goals are to keep your dog comfortable and to not send them home with a vet bill.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes. I am available for all your walking and dog-sitting needs. Whether it’s house sitting, walking/feeding the dog, letting him/her out to play, I look forward to caring for your pup! I’m a 3rd grade teacher with availability after school hours as well as weekends and holiday breaks! I am free to drop by on the weekdays or provide more in depth help on weekends and other days off. Trust is huge when it comes to your pet and I am flexible to support all needs with your dog while you are away/busy. You can trust that your dog is in good hands with me! I am good at following directions and will be able to keep up with normal routines and procedures that your dog is used to so that you are comfortable as well as them.
About: I have recently been learning different breeds while fostering. It has given me insight to which ones like what and what their needs are on a daily. I work from home so I have some flexibility in my schedule to do stuff throughout the day. I enjoy being able to help animals. I have a dog sitting schedule you can download from Etsy for drop offs well. You can purchase that here: https://prettyyoungthin........ I have been fostering on a regular the past year. I enjoy caring for and having the dogs around to keep me company too. They are fun getting to learn the different breeds.
“Bri did a terrific job. I have to say I was worried that Max was going to be too much for anyone to watch. It was first time we had someone watch him. He could be intimidating at 130 lbs and Bri found him to be nothing but a cuddle buddy. I highly recommended Bri and look forward to using her services again. Seriously , thank you.”
“Megan was great with Henry! She was prompt, provided great communication throughout, and Henry loved spending time with her. We will definitely continue to work with her!”
“Nicole was amazing! Very quick and polite communication. Took great daily photos and followed up with everything! She even handled some things that were outside of my initial request, to make sure we returned to a good situation. Would definitely recommend her, and will be using her again myself!”
About: I’ve loved animals from a very young age and have experience with all kinds of pets. I have about 15 years experience working in a very busy specialty veterinary hospital as a vet nurse for their emergency service. So you can trust your pets are getting the best care and I can spot a potential health issue/emergency if something were to arise. Along with my medical background I have a great deal of experience and interest in animal behavior and training. Having worked with my own dogs and worked directly with trainers for my own knowledge. The hospital I worked for was fear free certified, I absolutely carry those gentle and patient techniques over when working with your pets. Taking the time to gain trust is super important! I recently moved back to this area, I went to school in haddon heights. Since moving back my schedule is pretty open so I can focus on taking care of your pets! I have my own car and can come to your house so your pet(s) don’t have to stress in an unfamiliar environment. Alternatively I do offer day boarding in my home which has a fully fenced yard with plenty of space to run. Whatever the circumstances, I am available by phone/text always and will happily send updates and pics as often as you’d like so you can enjoy your time away from your pets.
“Katia was an excellent sitter for Gianni who is 15 years old. She was punctual, and very considerate of details about his routine based off post it notes and our initial meeting in person. If she had any questions, she asked, Katia also stayed longer at times to comfort him. Katia sent daily pictures on her visits along with updates. So I knew he was in great hands and gave me comfort while on my trip. Highly recommend Katia and will be using her in the future for Gianni.”
About: I am a dog mom of 2 playful babies! I’ve always loved animals and taken care of neighbors and friends pets while on vacation for upwards of a week including scheduled vet visits, walking, grooming and of course lots of cuddles ! I work part time at a restaurant with flexible hours (mostly at night)! If I’m not home my partner is so your dog will always be monitored and taken care of ! I have two playful dogs for your pups to play with, lots of hard space and toys. We do daily training exercises to keep ensure their energy has a positive outlet !

About: As an attorney, I am both loving and responsible. I have been pet sitting for friends and family since highschool. I have experience with dogs, cats, and bunnies. I recently trained a rescue puppy who my family now calls our own! He is very energetic and reactive, so I know how to handle dogs who can be challenging. I grew up in a home with a dog and three cats and spent lots of time volunteering at an animal shelter. Animal care comes naturally to me! I am a professional, but I have a flexible schedule! I love taking a break from all the reading to play, walk, and care for your family member with fur. I truly value your trust and privacy. I am very accommodating to any preferences you have for your home or pet care. I will follow routines or schedules, remember instructions, and send updates or photos as often as you like!
“Rebooked with Bri and of course she was great with our pups. They are so comfortable with her which says so much cause our little can be such a yapper. We couldn’t be more appreciative of her. Thanks Bri!”
“Denille was absolutely fantastic! Hooch quickly felt comfortable with her and was excited for her visits. She maintained his schedule on time and accurately. I wouldn’t hire anyone one else if I am in need of a sitter. Another upside is I think my Hooch is planning vacations for me so he can see Denille again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Eileen. She was super communicative. She came by before our vacation to meet our pets. She gave us lots of info while we were away about what was happening in and around our house. And I happened to cross paths with her at the end of her sitting, and our cats were so loving and comfortable with her. She is truly a cat person, and also, happily, a wonderfully responsible and communicative person, too. I can’t wait to hire her again.”
About: I’ve grown up with many pets from the age of two. But since I was probably 13 I’ve been pet sitting for family friends, family members, and neighbors. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, and a rabbit. And I am always learning about animals and how to best care for them. I am currently working part-time. But my job is very flexible. I don’t have a specific set of days that I have to work- it will be sporadically in the week. But I am always able to discuss scheduling. My three dogs have a big fenced in yard and get lots of exercise. Sometimes we go to the dog park for some socialization. At my clients homes, I walk as many times as they need, feeding, and medications (if there are any). For cats, I will clean litter, feed, do medications as needed as well, and playing if they like that!
About: Hey there! I’m Dana, I’m a night owl, film and reality tv lover, I enjoy hiking, going to the beach, listening to music, cooking & spending time with friends and family. I’m a lifelong animal lover (of all animals, even the tiniest bug!) and have been professionally pet sitting for over 10 years. I have experience with all kinds of animals, but am a big softie for large breed dogs. I have two German shepherds and a beagle, but don’t worry- I live with family, so they will be cared for while I’m with your pet! I strongly believe in leaving things better than you found them, which means that your home and pets will receive lots of TLC while I’m with them. I provide around the clock care to keep your pet company throughout the day. Whether you just need a quick drop in and walk or an extended stay, I will be there to give your pet all of the potty breaks, attention, playtime and companionship they need. In your home I will follow your regular rules and routines you have in place for your pets. I find that sticking to your pet’s normal routine keeps them calm and happy when their family members are away.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tavistock
Julia was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats while we were away. We really appreciated Julia’s warmth, professionalism, and communicativeness. The updates she sent throughout our trip were very reliable and reassuring. She was very easy to connect with and our cats seemed happy and healthy upon our return. We hope to book with Julia again!
Hunter is a conscientious, loving and professional person. She cared for my diabetic cat for two weeks and I received glowing reviews from him lol. I very much appreciate Hunter’s style as well. She was relaxed and confident around Mick. Hunter is and will be on Team Mick for future trips!!!!
Melissa was fabulous. She was reliable and friendly and conscientious. She was also very flexible when my flight was delayed and I needed to extend her visits she did so without hesitation. She spent time with my cats and sent great updates and photos throughout.
Margot took very good care of firefly! She even took the time to play with him which we really appreciate! Firefly seemed to warm right up to her which speaks volumes to her natural love and attentiveness for cats! Also , she was very adaptable when we had a little key /lock mishap (my fault). thanks again ! Definitely will book again

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.
