“I had a weird situation in which the person caring for my animals abandoned them. Michelle was amazing and accommodating, went to my home after maintenence unlocked my place, cleaned up the mess my stressed out old man kitty made in a tub because he was alone for 4 days. Took care of him and the other 3 at the last minute for a week so I didn't have to leave my job (loose my job) and fly home. I was the most stressed out I'd been in years! But seeing the pics she took of my babies eating fresh wet food and playing every day helped me so much. 10000% recommend her and appreciate her and Rover for being here!! This is great app. Being able to see them check in and out, they can post photos and communicate like texting. Really great and will use again instead of depending on family!!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old and have experience with pets of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I’ve assisted with whelping litters, ensuring each puppy gained weight appropriately, met all nutritional requirements, and received attentive care during their earliest stages of life. I also helped with early potty training, socialization, and sensory enrichment to support healthy development. In addition, I have experience caring for elderly pets by providing gentle, patient care, administering medications when needed, monitoring their comfort, and adapting to their changing needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own and pride myself on providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive care. I am a stay at home dog and cat mom so I’m available any time and any day to look after your fur babies when needed. I am more comfortable with taking care of your fur babies from your home just because I do have a senior Great Dane who is not the friendliest toward other doggies.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have a lot of hands on experience. I’ve helped family and friends with pet sitting over the years and have experience with potty training, crate training, and teaching basic tricks. I’m patient, dependable, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away:) Caring for pets fits easily into my weekly routine. I currently have a flexible summer schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, check-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I make sure to only accept bookings that I can fully commit to so that each pet gets reliable care and plenty of attention. I understand that pets are family, and I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I feel the same way about my own dogs, so I always treat the pets I care for with the same patience, attention, and affection that I would want for my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine consistent, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I also make sure they get plenty of companionship and attention so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is not only to meet their basic needs, but to help them feel safe, cared for, and loved until their family comes home.

About: Dogs are my best friends. Rover is a blessing in the fact I can do what I love and love to do and that is care and talk to dogs. My home and time are available 24 hours a day. For a pet owner to have a 24 hour emergency or non emergency sitter is awesome and that’s what I can provide My house is poodle proof!! I can handle when the dog is to smart for their britches and I can handle slower and meaner dogs. :).

About: In the 12 years of caring for dogs I’ve gone from dogs as tiny and as chihuahuas and dogs as mighty as the Bull Mastiff. I’ve come across a variety of ages, energy levels, personalities, different medical needs, and temperaments in dogs. I am do train some basics and socialize dogs as young as possible to help prepare them long term for the world around them and set the dog up for success. I do work from home and can flex my schedule to accommodate my current clients pets to allow the maximum attention to the animals needs. I have a very open flowing schedule to allow for lots of flexibility in time to give to any of my animals. I give my dogs food later in the night, every 2-4 hours I will allow my dogs to take bathroom breaks, my dogs are usually always with me where I go through out my home or in the backyard, in situations I can’t supervise them they are placed in the crate to keep them as safe as possible. Excersize to help maintain social skills are given as often as necessary to keep the dog acclimated to daily life outside of the home.

Tommie was wonderful with Gomez and made everything really easy while we were away. She kept us updated and took great care of him. Gomez seemed happy and comfortable when we got back, which says a lot. We’d gladly have Tommie drop in on him again!

We were excited to find Pam and Kat through Rover. We knew as soon as we met them that our cats would be in good hands. Pam and Kat took care of our cat while we were out of town for 4 nights. It was our first time leaving our cat completely alone in our house--our other cat recently passed away--and we were very nervous about how he might behave. The daily Rover reports from Pam and Kat were very helpful--it was so nice to see pictures of our cat playing and being happy. Thank you!

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.
