“Tonya was really great. She dropped in on my 2 dogs and cat 3x/day while we were on vacation. She sent us lots of pics and followed all instructions. She was pleasant and Took the time to stop in and meet me and my animals before we left. We would definitely use her again.”
“Kevin is great! He took care of our two dogs over a holiday and was right on time, always left an update, and the dogs seem to be happy! I would recommend Kevin to take care of anybody’s pets.”
“I feel lucky I found a wonderful caring and patient sitter for my two rescue dogs. My one dog that was rescued from a hoarders house a few years ago is still scarred by his horrible treatment and is very skittish around new people. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly he was able to build some trust and connect with Alicia. Highly recommend.”
“Very amazing and friendly people. Responded to my request last minute and provided superb communication regarding my son lol. I would highly recommend to book with Wendy and Daniel. I look forward to booking with them again.”
“Ceinwein did a great job and was available with short notice. Very reliable and experienced with dealing with an elderly dog and giving medication. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Lauren M. kept us apprised each day on how our cat was doing and sent us pictures. We appreciated her attention to details and reports. This was the first time we have used rover.com -- and will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with pets all my life. Now that I’m an adult I have 5 cats and a dog. I’ve fostered (and foster failed) both cats and dogs over the years. I watch my friend’s pets here and at their homes as well. At my house I have a spare room that can be your animal’s home away from home if they need their own secluded space. I also have a fenced in yard with friendly neighbors who are also animal lovers. Come in the summer and I’ll send you home with some fresh veggies from my garden too! I get up early for work and make sure to leave plenty of time to feed, clean litter boxes and make sure all my four legged babies are ready for the day. Once home in the afternoon and after I lay down on the couch they all come to find me for love and to lay on me for all the pets. At night all are welcome to sleep with me, on the couch or wherever they are the most comfortable. I home almost all day over the weekends except for the morning time on Sundays. I have a fenced in yard so any dogs are able to go outside whenever they need to to play, pee or lay in the sun. I watch my neighbor’s dogs as needed and will go over every 4 or so hours to let them out over the weekends. During the week I let them out before I go to work and then as soon as I come home. I then let them out again before bed around 8pm. I also am able to let them out as needed when they are in a pinch and can’t get home in time. My cats and yours if they come for a stay will have water and toys available to them at all times. They will be fed twice a day with a snack of crunchies before bed. If you needed me to come to your house to take care of your cats and/or dogs, I would be able to come early in the morning, after work and before bed during the week and every 4-6 hours during the weekend. While at your house I can take animals for a walk, play, give pets and love, brush or whatever else is needed. Of course I’d feed them and clean kitty litter boxes or whatever else your babies need. I am good with giving medicine to cats and dogs. I give daily medication to my dog and have had to give cats medicine in the past.
“Katryna was a pleasure to work with. Especially when my dogs were not on their best behavior, she was able to approach the situation with a can do attitude, and did a great job with them.”
“Morgan has been great with my two male Cockapoos. Tiger who is a challenge to many caregivers really took a liking to Morgan Immediately. She is a natural with animals and I am so happy we found her. It gives me a sense of peace coming home knowing that the dogs experienced a positive sitting session with Morgan!”
“Once again, Delaney rocks with walking and sitting with our Bailey boy and Dabby cat. Don’t know how I’d get by without her! TYSM, Delaney! (If you’re reading this and deciding, contact her now! On second thought, we might need her… She’s great!!)”
“Deborah was wonderful with our cat and bird! Very caring, calm, and communicative. We also asked about a last-minute change in time (if possible) and she was so accommodating. Thank you!”
“Suzanne exceeded every expectation when caring for our dog. She treats our girl just like her own dog and goes out of her way to make sure that Harper’s needs are met and she is cared for as if she were her own dog! We highly recommend Suzanne to assist in any pet care needs you may have!”
“Tricia was fantastic! She took exceptional care of our fur babies while we were out of town. She administered medicine for our elderly German Shepherd and is great with pets that require special care. We are really grateful to have someone dependable, like Tricia, to watch them. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“I’m highly impressed with Aaron. He takes dog walking to another level! Very professional and transparent. Not only does he take the dogs for a walk, but he clocks his departure and arrival and includes a map of where he went. He leaves a real nice summary that paints a picture of the dog’s outing. My 2 dogs are having a lot of fun with him. My German Shepherd dog took right to him, sensing that Aaron was a true dog lover, especially lover of German Shepherd dogs 😁. In addition to loving dogs and giving them a great time, he has that extra sense of knowing how to care for them. He let me know he wiped the salt from my dogs’’ paws upon his return from a walk in the snow. I’m feeling blessed to have found him.”
About: I had a dog as a child. I have had dogs for over 35 years. They are great company and a great addition to any family. I am retired. My time would be totally devoted to spending time with your pet(s). I look forward to giving you the comfort that your pets are well-cared for while you are not home. My pets at home are pretty spoiled. They are not crated and we play inside and outside. Whatever the owners require is what I will do. Unfortunately, my most recent dog died of cancer. I miss her; but look forward to taking good care of other people’s pets.
“Coleen has been amazing with our one year old Aussie! She is extremely dependable, kind, and always so responsive. You can tell she is a huge dog lover from the first time you meet her! We are so happy we found a great dog walker who truly cares about our pup’s wellbeing.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was just 6 years old—whether it was my own pup or a neighbor’s. That early experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand different personalities in dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with puppies who need consistency and training, as well as senior dogs who need a little extra gentleness and care. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy every time we’re together. As a full-time student, I’ve built my schedule to make plenty of room for pet care. I’m available on weekdays after 5 PM, which is perfect for evening walks or playtime. Fridays I’m completely free in both the morning and evening, and I’m totally available on weekends. This flexibility allows me to give your pets the time, energy, and attention they deserve—whether it’s a long walk, extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company. Whether I’m in my home or yours, your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each dog’s unique needs, routines, and personality so they feel secure and cared for. I always double-check doors, leashes, and gates to ensure pets stay safe. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet with the same care and respect as I do my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Telford
Liz is Awesome !!!L Liz has a great personality and It was immediately obvious that she loves cats and was totally comfortable approaching our Atticus. Atticus is usually very hesitant around people but he took to her right away, purring and rubbing up against her. We felt very comfortable with Liz and we know our baby is in Great Hands !!! We look forward to scheduling her again...!!!
Alex was absolutely wonderful with both of our dogs! She took her time getting to know our little Noelle, who can be very nervous and scared around new people, and was so patient and gentle while earning her trust. She was equally great with Geralt, our big, lovable goofball, and had no trouble handling his size and energy. It’s not always easy to find someone who can adjust so naturally to two dogs with completely different personalities, but Alex did it with ease. We felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care and would absolutely recommend her!
Kristy was amazing! She is so kind and very thorough with her care. My dog is 15 and has some mobility issues but Kristy made me feel comfortable leaving her in her care. She was on time and sent me updates and photos. I definitely recommend using her for your dog care and I will definitely be using her in the future!
This was our first time with Tonya since our previous rover moved away from the area. Tonya was thorough in our intro meeting to understand what we needed then took great care of our boxer while we were away. I will be booking with her again, highly recommended.

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.

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.
