“Lindsay and Josh were awesome with Wolverine! I'm always nervous leaving him with new people, but I felt totally comfortable with them right away. They kept me in the loop, which was great! Wolverine is a high energy dog, seriously never stops, but he was actually exhausted when he got home – which is rare! Thanks so much for taking such amazing care of him!”

“Deborah and her husband are the BEST dog sitters ever!!! I was nervous to leave my 15 1/2 yr old Dachshund/Chihuahua for two weeks and I could not have picked anyone better to do it. Of course, a few days after I left my dog got an absess tooth and had to go to the vet to get on antibiotics . Deborah was so helpful and gave my dog all the attention and care he could need. She even gave him essential oils massages and gave extra attention to his old, not so stable body. I couldn't have been more please with the care, love and attention she gave my dog. The only person I will choose to watch my dog in the future!!! Thanks Deborah!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Susan and would absolutely trust her with Winnie again. Our 11-year-old Morkie, Winnie, has several health issues and requires multiple medications, so finding someone we feel comfortable leaving her with is incredibly important. Susan did a great job making sure Winnie received all of her medications and was well cared for throughout her stay. Susan was very easy to communicate with and kept us updated every day with messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Winnie loves to explore, and she had a great time enjoying Susan’s backyard, going on walks through the neighborhood, and spending time with Susan and her family throughout the day. When we picked Winnie up, it was clear that she felt comfortable and well cared for in their home. That meant so much to us. We would definitely ask Susan to dog sit again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, and caring place for their dog while they are away.”

We absolutely love having Sara watch Kiwi! We’ve had her stay a couple of times now, and Kiwi always gets so excited when she knows she’s going to Sara’s. She has a blast playing with Sara’s puppy, playing in the little pool, and the ball playpen. Kiwi always comes home happily tired! Sara sends daily updates and takes great care of her.

Jill was amazing! This was my first time boarding a pup with Rover and she made me feel so comfortable and confident leaving for a vacation out of the country. I received multiple picture and video updates per day and it's clear my dog recieved a lot of love while I was gone. Lots of play time, snuggles in blankets, running around outside & sunbathing, and so much attention :) I would 10/10 recommend Jill to watch your dog!

We absolutely love Magdalena and we truly couldn’t be happier with her care! She went above and beyond to get to know Frankie, which really speaks to her caring and friendly personality. From the thoughtful daily updates, photos and videos we received, we could tell Frankie was having a blast with plenty of play time and felt right at home with Magdalena. If you’re seeking a trustworthy and caring sitter, Magdalena is undoubtedly the perfect choice. Frankie formed a genuine connection and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Amelia was so great. Just 2 days before our trip, my doggo had to go to the ER which resulted in a bland diet for the first few days of his stay that i had to prep. I was so worried it would cause Amelia stress, but she had no issue whatsoever taking that on! She even was so great to go above and beyond and provide some extra support getting my dog to his next sitter after her care. She is very thoughtful and I knew my guy was in good hands! Im excited to have another sitter I can go to!

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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.

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 .

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in CO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
