“Amazing job again by Kayleigh! Ollie was in good spirits after coming back from a quick weekend trip. He definitely got some love and attention while we were gone. Will rebook again soon”
“Dan had been a godsend. He has come consistently since august. This has put my mind at ease during the day knowing Rosie is well cared for. He is timely and always provides great updates and photos from what went on during the visit. He also goes above and beyond in my book to help me reinforce commands and tricks that my puppy is learning. Rosie is happy getting in her crate knowing she will see Dan mid day. She is also happy in her crate when I come home knowing that we picked the best person to take care of her during the day. I cant recommend Dan enough (just don't take my time slot if you choose to hire him, which you absolutely should).”
“Skylar did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats while I was away for 2 weeks on business. My cats warmed up to her quickly. The care was complicated by some medical issues with my cats, and the fact that I had just recently moved to a new place, but she handled everything fantastically and kept the cats happy and healthy”
“Maxi is incredibly kind, responsive and loving. It feels like Nola has become an extension of their family. She even whimpers with excitement when we pull up for her to stay with Mazi! Recommended whole-heartedly from a dog obsessed owner.”
“Makinzie was amazing!! She was able to help us last minute which was extremely helpful. She sent lots of photos and her communication was great. She even went out of her way to clean up after our dogs and bring a package in for us. Definitely will be using her again!”
About: Not only do I have experience working in a doggy daycare facility at one point but I was blessed enough to have a mother who had her own boarding and daycare business in our home for my teenage into my adult years. Not only did I get to watch and learn how she did things in our own home but I got to work for her and get paid learning more and more as the years went on. Had our own animals growing up and I've had my experience with all kinds of animals from dogs to cats and rabbits. I treat everybody's animal as if they were my own and love to spend every minute I can with any animal I can. I have over 20 years of experience and all the love that you could imagine for your child to give. I am currently working via doordash and would prefer to be walking dogs instead. So as of right now I am only delivering to people until I can start scheduling pet sitting hours. That leaves my schedule wide open from the time my son leaves to school at 9:00 a.m. until I have to be back for him to get off the bus at 3:00 p.m. I would come to your house so you can introduce me to yourself and your dog. I would need to know if your dog needs any medicine or food or fresh bowl of water along with where the leash and collar would be to walk your dog. If your dog has a special routine that you guys walk everyday I would love to know that so that your dog is going the same way they are used to. If you have a fenced in yard I can just let your dog out and we can play ball or fetch or we can just snuggle and cuddle and get lovings before it is time for me to leave.
“Bri is amazing!!! There was an issue with my lockbox being jammed, I had to order another to my house and she was able to put my keys in there for me upon my return. She made sure she was able to get access to my apartment to keep my cat fed and safe. Bri went above and beyond for me, I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jacob took great care of my kitten and knew what he was doing! She was in great hands. He also was very flexible in working with me with picking up and dropping of my keys. Would definitely use him again!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was a young teen (around 15 years experience) and have cared for a wide range of animals, including cats, dogs, and small pets like rats, bunnies, hamsters, etc. I have also volunteered at rescues providing animal care, enrichment, and socialization. I have experience with senior pets, sick and medically complex animals, and hospice care for cats and dogs. I’m comfortable supporting pets with special needs, including disabled dogs and cats, and I approach every animal with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. I have two happy cats of my own! My goal is always to provide calm, reliable care so animal friends feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I work about 20–30 hours a week as a counselor, but I have a flexible schedule where I set my own hours. This allows me to build pet care into my daily and weekly routine with ease. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of pets and their owners. I prioritize consistency and reliability so pets get care when they need it most. In a client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I prioritize care, play, and one-on-one attention, and I take time to understand each pet’s unique needs, routines, and favorite activities. I aim to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible by sticking closely to their normal schedule and incorporating the things they enjoy most.
About: Hello! I am a 25 year old animal caretaker! I have experience working with many cat and dog breeds. I specialize in high energy dogs! My family and I have been fostering for a non profit organization since 2015. With fosters the ages of 6 weeks to 14 years old. I have always been an animal lover. For fun my mom and I would go to our local animal shelters to hangout with the beautiful souls! I previously worked for an animal hospital as a kennel attendant I had the best time caring and playing with each visitor we had. I have experience offering check in visits and walking dogs in any weather (snow, rain, cold, hot). Thank you for your time and I hope to have the opportunity to get to know you and your fur babies! I’m available for walks Monday- Friday! As early as 7:30 am to 6 pm. Pet services are scheduled within a designated time window. For example, a 30-minute walk can be booked within the 11 AM–12 PM window, allowing me flexibility to arrive at any point during that hour. Even if you have a fenced in yard I will be outside keeping an eye on your pet. If you do not have a fenced in yard I can take your dog on walks to give them time to use the bathroom. If your pet needs to be crated I will be sure to give them a treat or a toy to have with them.
“Alexander is amazing! We are so thankful that he was able to watch our two cats while we were away! He always sent us updates and they never missed a meal!! Alexander's attention to detail and professional communication always put our minds at ease. We didn't have to worry at all for the entire time we were gone. Alexander is our #1 choice to be our cat sitter anytime we are away. Highly recommend!”
“Wonderful!!! I was so happy to find Kathleen on short notice to help me with my beautiful newfoundland Pearl. Kathleen was so nice and took great care of her for drop in visits to go to the bathroom and feed her while I was out of town. So thankful to find her and we look forward to using Kathleen again!”
“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful! She’s reliable, trustworthy and truly cares about my rescue pup’s needs. I’m so thankful that she aims to ensure that my pup feels comfortable during this transition. I highly recommend Stephanie!”

Thanks to Lindsay for being there for our pup. On an away trip, Lindsay went above and beyond (truly) for our dog. An alarm went off in our home - our dog is terrified of beeping - and Lindsay found where the beeping was coming from and assisted in turning it off and ensuring our home and dog were safe. In addition to great care, Lindsay compiled helpful reports and much needed pictures of our dog while we were away. Thanks again for watching him. 10/10
Soraya as always took great care of Kiara. She made sure Kiara got all her meds, tracked her food input to actively monitor her weight and provided updates and pictures so I knew how my cat was. Very polite and attentive. Really love working with Soraya to take care of Kiara
Can't say enough good things about Kayleigh! She is so great with our 2 cats. We feel so confident when we go away that they are in the very best care! She is very diligent and detailed with their care. She spends quality time with them each visit ensuring they are happy and content. I highly recommend Kayleigh!!
She was great with my pups! She was always punctual, followed all of my instructions carefully, and made sure everything that needed to be done was taken care of. Most importantly, she was kind and attentive with the dogs, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable and easy to work with, and I would definitely hire her again in the future. Highly recommend!
Jordynn was very flexible with our shy kitty and maintained consistency with her visits. We appreciate her willingness to care for our kitty as he has medication he gets twice a day! She was very communicative and was able to always provide us with a picture even though he was hiding well 😂
Brianna took great care of my cat Finley. She followed his feeding instructions and made sure to give him his daily treats in his activity feeders. She went the extra mile and cleaned up a throw-up on the rug, which was much appreciated! 😉 I would definitely recommend her!
Dan is simply the best!!! Dan has been consistent, reliable and more importantly kind and caring. Rosie loves when Dan comes to visit her. She happily shows off all the tricks he has been working on with her. If you are wondering who will care for your dog as if they were their own then Dan is your man.

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.
