“Chesnie has been absolutely awesome with our dogs, Bella and Murphy. We set up a meet and greet prior to her drop in visits and Murphy is normally very timid around new people but warmed up to her in record time. Since then Murphy seems to have made a new friend!! Chesnie has been doing drop-in visits for us 2 days a week and treats our dogs as if they were her own. She makes sure they get their potty breaks and play time along with some snuggles and sends regular updates and pictures. I would highly recommend Chesnie to anyone looking for someone who cares to look after your pets. She's been absolutely wonderful!”
About: As a dedicated pet caregiver with experience, I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I ensure every pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Working from home allows me to be with your dog throughout the day, providing constant companionship and supervision. With a deep understanding of canine behavior and a passion for providing the best care, I tailor each experience to meet your dog's unique needs. I'm committed to creating an stress-free environment for pets and their owners, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Your furry friend will be treated like family! I work from home full time so I can provide around the clock company and care. If you need me to make drop ins or walks at your place I am flexible. I rather not keep a dog in a cage. I prefer them to be with me. I like to be active so I can take them on long walks or play in the yard. If your dog is more happy staying indoors relaxing then I am also game for cuddles on the couch.
“I loved having Kaila watch my dogs! She’s very sweet, sent photo updates, was respectful of the space, locked up the house properly and loved on my boys while I was away. 10/10 would recommend. :)”

About: I have been a pet sitter for various platforms and have loved my experience of meeting new people and learning about their pets. I would love to get to know you! I am a senior in college and have been pet-sitting for about one year. I am independent, communicative, and flexible. I am studying wildlife conservation and have a plethora of experience getting my hands dirty. Pet Care is very important to me. I am in my senior year of college, so I often have services available on days when I do not have classes. It is serious work; pet care is just as critical as childcare, so I'd like to ensure that I give enough time and attention to the pets that I am working with I am very hands-on throughout my pet-sitting experience. I love getting to know each personality of the pet that I am watching and learning new things about each person that I meet. I am very communicative throughout and a quick learner.
“Jessica went above and beyond taking care of our babies! Bear definitely did NOT make it easy for her 😂, but she handled our wild puppy with so much patience, love, and grace. She made sure our old man Duke was comfortable and cared for, gave Duchess all the love she needed, and even won over Bax, our cat! Having four pets with completely different personalities is a lot, but Jessica handled our crazy crew like a champ and kept us updated while we were away. I truly appreciate the love and care she showed Duke, Duchess, Bear, and Bax. I cannot recommend Jessica enough! Finding someone you can truly trust with your babies is priceless, and Jessica is absolutely that person. If you’re looking for someone who is patient, dependable, compassionate, and will genuinely love and care for your pets like they’re her own, book Jessica. You will not regret it! We will absolutely be booking with her 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.
