“Debra was lovely and great with our cat, Cleo. She took great care of her and of us before, during and even after her visits. She communicates well and is clear and concise when it comes to handling the visits! She was also great with handling anything that had come up and willing to go beyond her 2 scheduled visits.”
“Jordan was wonderful with our Blueberry (dog). She sent lots of photos, gave us tons of updates, and followed all our instructions with zero issues. It was such a relief to know that we were in good hands with Jordan while we were on our trip and away from our pup. Jordan took the time to come over and meet Blueberry before we booked. She's a very friendly person and someone you would feel safe leaving your puppy with. Again, she did everything we could've asked, was so friendly and kind, and when we returned home, our dog was so happy! Will definitely book again!”
“Morgan’s care for my cat was outstanding. Morgan was a great communicator and her attention to detail really got me comfortable that my little guy was in the best of hands. Morgan really knew how to engage a typically shy cat and they became best buddies in a remarkably short period of time. I have already booked with Morgan for another time.”
“I can’t recommend Zoe enough! She took incredible care of Millie and Sadie, while I was away. From regular updates and photos to taking them for a walk. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone so reliable, professional, and genuinely passionate about animals. Thank you so much – we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Meg was fantastic with our dogs! She was very mindful of checking on them and seeing how hot it was outside to make they were getting overheated. Also got so many good pictures on my pets from her visits, will definitely be booking with her the next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Benji over the two days she watched him. From the very beginning, she was warm, communicative, and super attentive. I received regular updates with pictures and videos, and it brought me so much peace of mind knowing Benji was in such good hands. She walked him, fed him! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and enjoys what she does. Benji looked so happy and comfortable with her, and I could tell he had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future, thank you so much, Shannon!”
“Abby did an excellent job caring for my babies! She was responsive, followed directions, and took some of the cutest pictures of them. It gave me peace of mind knowing I could count on her.”
“Jasmine did great with our two dogs! Bevo and Jenna! Thank you Jasmine for sitting with Jenna while she ate her food! She is super sensitive and you time and patience was appreciated!”
About: I am a highly dedicated, experienced and reliable in taking care of pets. Their safety and comfort is my number one priority, so you don't have to worry when you are away from your pet. I used to have a dog and a cat in my hometown for years when I was growing up. I was also professionally dog walking for four years, so I am familiar with different breeds, their habits and the right approach to each one. I am positive I will find the way to their hearts. I always welcome dogs in my house, taking care of our friend's and family's pets, and all of them were leaving my place being super happy and wiggling their tail. I treat my little guests as a family, showing my best hospitality! They will be happy and loved!
“Kendall took great care of my dog—super attentive, always on time, and constantly keeping me updated. I can say she provided service in an extremely professional and caring way. I can’t hold back from saying how fantastic the care was and how flawlessly she did it. Every time I’ve worked with her, I’ve been happy, got the right service, and my dog received the best care.”

“Lori is our go-to anytime we need care for our pets. I appreciate her flexibility and how she's able to help us while navigating any change in travel plans. Our dogs love her and so do we! She is amazing and you won't regret hiring her for your pet care needs.”
“Kristen was an amazing dog sitter for our German Shepherd Dog. We used her for drop in visits and each time she gave us a full update with pictures of our fur baby. I felt so comforted to hear how he was doing every day - he was definitely in good hands. Im so glad we found Kristen - we will definitely be using her to care for our pup again in the future!”
“Michael was so great in keeping us up to date on how our dogs were doing. We got a lot of pictures. He also did some check in appointments with our cats. We always feel comfortable leaving our pets in his care.”
About: I grew up with dogs at home and have done dog sitting previously. I’m patient, attentive and caring. I will treat your dogs like my own! I’m transitioning jobs at the moment and have a lot of free time to take care of pets. I like to go on walks so I can bring them with me if that works for them as well. I have a spacious yard for dogs to play around and I have space for a crate inside the house if needed. I currently have no pets myself.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am.

Whether it’s playtime, long walks, cuddle sessions, or sticking to a specific feeding or medication schedule, I’m attentive, patient, and reliable.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. As a child we always had dogs and as an adult I have always owned a dog. I pet sit friend's and family's dogs. I have always been successful with house training and training dogs to stay off of furniture etc. Living with and loving dogs, I find, is the best kind of therapy. They offer and deserve unconditional love. For me, dogs are family members!🐕🦺🦮🐕🐶❣ I do not work and I live alone so my schedule is completely up to me. I am very flexible and accommodating.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - The Woodlands
Heather was incredible. We were out of the country and had a situation with my dog and she kept him and took care of him like her own. I would have had to fly back to the USA if she hadn’t reassured me so well that she had things completely under control. She is extremely reliable, flexible with things changing amongst many other wonderful things. Thank you Heather.
Zoe was fantastic! She accommodated us last minute for our long weekend trip and took wonderful care of our girls, Chloe and Luna. She sent us photos throughout the stay, which we loved, and even took in a package that showed up at a bad time. Highly recommend and we'll definitely be booking with her again!
Debra was amazing and I cannot have booked a better person to see after my girl. Luci and I felt comfortable with Debra immediately, and I truly felt like I had left her with a family member. This improved my mood and the overall quality of my trip significantly. 10s across the board. Thank you for everything, Debra ❤️
Jeannie was absolutely incredible! She took such great care of our sweet Creasy and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She had great communication, was attentive & caring, and kept us updated throughout our time away. We could tell Creasy was happy and well cared for when we got back. We’re so thankful we found Jeannie! We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!
I highly recommend Shelby, our dog was very happy in her care! She took care of Togo while we were traveling, and after every visit she gave us a detailed update and photos of our sweet boy. She gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Thanks for everything Shelby!
Morgan has taken care of my cats for the third time now, and I couldn’t be happier! She’s always reliable, caring, and great with both of them. Her daughter is also so respectful of animals and loves playing with my cats, which is so sweet. I always feel comfortable knowing they’re in such good hands!
Claudia was very responsive and communicated well before and during the period we were out of town. She was dependable and did each requesed visit around the times we had agreed upon. Our pups were well cared for and were very happy to see her. We will use Claudia again.

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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 use the 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 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.
