“Kiera is amazing! She is incredibly responsive, and we’ve booked her multiple times. She has been able to help us with last-minute bookings, which has been such a relief. Our cats and dogs absolutely love her, and we always feel confident leaving them in her care. We would definitely recommend Kiera to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Never in a million years did I think I’d find someone to love my dog the way I do! Boy was I wrong! Betsy was SOOOO loving with Rufus, was great at informing me of his status each day and best of all, sent great photos each day! Rufus will miss seeing her every day…she was WONDERFUL! Betsy is trustworthy, responsible and was the perfect fit for our family!”
“Brian genuinely loves for our dogs. He is trustworthy, reliable, and has a relationship w them. Our dogs’ “fun faces” in his pics are undeniable and he actually wears them out - not easy!”
“Alyson was absolutely wonderful with my two senior cats! One needs medication and frequent bathroom breaks, and the other is shy and hides—but she handled both with such care and kindness. She came by three times a day, made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and not lonely. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Remy has been so helpful! My dogs absolutely adore her. I have a new rescue who is very timid towards people and Remy was able to become friends with her very quickly. I work long hours so she comes and gives them some time in the yard to help break up the day.”

This includes managing precise feeding schedules, providing mental stimulation, and keeping up with daily exercise. • Specialized & Reactive Dog Walking: I served as a weekly dog walker for a dog/wolf mix hybrid breed.

I strictly follow your pet's exact feeding schedules and sleeping preferences to make sure they feel completely secure. My flexible schedule allows me to offer overnight boarding and daycare every single day of the week, with the exception of Tuesdays. In Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-In Visits): When caring for your pets in your home, my priority is maintaining their absolute comfort, safety, and established routine. For drop-in visits, I focus on precise feeding times, refreshing water, scooping litter, and engaging them with small, interactive play sessions. For walks, I practice highly vigilant, defensive handling to keep strict boundaries from strangers and other dogs. I am fully available to housesit or visit your home every day of the week except Tuesdays, ensuring your pets get reliable, dedicated companionship while you are away

“Katie was great with Roy! He got plenty of exercise and interactions when I was gone and he got nearly 1 mile walks each drop In! Plenty of pictures shared! Above and beyond! Thank you Katie. Roy says thank you too!!:)”
“My trip was for a funeral of which I was very concerned about how my four dogs would respond to my leaving for three days. Christina is fantastic with dogs and adapts to each dogs personality. Christina sent photos each visit and took very good care of my fur babies. Her caregiving eased the stress level so I could focus on my family and the loss of my Aunt. Thank you so much Christina.”
About: I have a fully trained yellow lab. He is my boy!!! He always goes on runs with me and loves to go camping. He is trained with hand signals and also goes potty on command. I spent a great deal of time with him as a puppy training him and it was most definitely worth it! I have always had a family dog and love taking care of puppers. I love being outside and getting exercise! I'd love to take care of your special little fur baby during the day while you are at work. I use to work all day so I definitely understand how important it is to have you dog not be cooped up all day long. I can't wait to have the opportunity to hang out with your special doggy! I also do horse care and chicken/duck care
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds, especially cats and dogs, and I’ve cared for them through every stage of life. I’ve trained my own dogs successfully, and friends and family have often trusted me with their pets. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I’d love to bring that same love and experience to your pets too! I just moved to Colorado, so I’m looking for work! My schedule is very flexible and I could work it around what you need most likely! When caring for my own dogs, I try to get them two walks in and day. Especially since they are crate trained for the night. I usually feed them sometime in the morning, so I am able to understand how to follow the schedule you prefer for your pets! I intend to keep them as comfortable as possible to their normal rountine.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - The Pinery
We felt so comfortable leaving our pets with Nancy. We loved the regular updates and pictures throughout the day. Such a relief to find someone like Nancy that we can leave our pets with knowing that they are going to be well taken care of. Thank you Nancy.
Carissa was absolutely amazing! She walked my dogs twice a day for an entire week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She was incredibly responsive the whole time, always communicating promptly and keeping me updated. One of my dogs needed medication during the week, and Carissa handled it perfectly — she was careful, reliable, and made the whole process completely stress-free. Most importantly, she was so kind and gentle with both of my dogs. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I will definitely be booking with Carissa 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.
