“Dawn took such good care of our 3 big babies while we were away. This was our first time leaving them for a trip and Dawn made sure to communicate with us at every sitting with pictures and updates! Very professional and caring!”
“Needed a last minute emergency check in for my pets and Kylie was super quick to respond and was on the ball. She was lovely and will use her again as needed. Thanks Kylie!”
“Christina was wonderful with our cat, Franklin! He took to her almost immediately. I knew she was going to be reliable and that I would be comfortable having her taking care of our boy while we were away. He got everything he needed and plenty of play time!”
“This is the 2nd time we’ve had Mary care for our dog while we’re away, and she always goes above and beyond! I’m so grateful for her and for how she puts our mind at ease with us knowing that our dog is well taken care of. She is definitely our go-to anytime we go out of town.”
About: I have always had such a profound love for dogs: growing up, we had 4 large Weimaraners who were energetic, loving, and most definitely required a lot of walks and baths. I've been a regular volunteer at a local animal shelter for a few years and have extensive experience in caring for pets, as I've cared for our own dog at home, a sweet 12 year old who still acts like she's a 3 year old puppy. I am currently a medical student at USC SOMG. I would love to get to know and to walk and take care of your pet! :) I am available for walks on weekdays after 6:30 pm and am free all day on the weekends. I am also available per request--I have a flexible schedule and I am more than willing to work with specific day/time requests! I would love to be able to care for your pets at your home--I want to foster an environment where they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for! I will do all tasks related to bathing, feeding, walking, playing with them, etc. To me, pets are truly family, and I understand and know how important they and their needs are.
About: I’ve had dogs of many different breeds since I was born, so I’m experienced with just about every type of dog. I currently have no dogs in the house and devote my time to full time pet sitting. I also frequently care for my sister’s two dogs, who I consider my niece and nephew, a female poodle, Vivienne, and a male Maltese-Bichon Frise, Wally, six and three years old, respectively. Also my mother recently adopted a puppy from the shelter, we think he is a french bulldog/boston terrier/boxer mix, his name is Griswald and I looove him. I love dogs of all kinds and sizes, and I volunteer with Pug Rescue Austin when I can. My favorite (and only) form of exercise is dog walking, and I would love to care for your dog-child. I’m currently dog-sitting full time, so I am free to devote all my time to taking care of your dog. My dogs stay with their grandmother when I’m boarding a dog, so your dog-child will receive my full attention ❣️🐕 I make sure that the area is safe, clean, and has plenty of toys. Your baby is always allowed on my furniture, couch, bed, everything; to make themselves at home and hang out and cuddle with me. I maintain a feeding, walking, and potty time schedule.
“This was our first time using Rover and we could not have chosen a better sitter for our 2 "boys", than Katrina. She was extremely punctual in the daily visits and our boys loved her. We appreciated the daily updates and pics that showed our fur babies enjoying her company. It is obvious that she is an animal lover and we enjoyed meeting her for a pre-visit, which put our minds at ease about leaving them for the week. I would highly recommend her services and have no hesitations about using her services in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our babies!”
“Lauren did a fantastic job dropping in and taking care of my dog. He is a little shy and hesitant to leave the home without his owner, but Lauren was very patient and bonded with him through play and obedience work. She even got him to come out of his shell on walks, which was unexpected but a great surprise. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Lauren take care of my pets again.”
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. As a pet owner myself, I’ve had multiple dogs and have provided pet sitting services for countless dogs and cats over the years. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and animals that require medication or extra attention. The most I’ve cared for at one time is two dogs and two cats, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets while ensuring each one receives the care and attention they deserve. I genuinely love animals and have the flexibility to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for your pets while you’re away. Over the next few months, I’ll be out of school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to accommodate your pet care needs, whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, keep a clean environment, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are always secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“I hired Helen to watch after our two dogs during a transition period. Her flexibility allowed for three 60min visits which included dog walks each week. Helen was always on time and sent super detailed Rover updates. Both dogs loved her visits. I would definitely recommend Helen for any dog needs you may have!”
“Deb was so wonderful with our senior dog and showed her lots of love while we were away. She communicates well and updates with plenty of pictures. I’m so glad we came across Deb on Rover, and we will definitely ask her to help again!”
“Second time with Amy and of course -- she was the absolute best! Even organized all the groceries that came in while we were gone, labeling all the veggies to make it easier for us to feed and take care of our reptiles when we returned. It's safe to say, whenever we go out of town, Amy is the one we call!”
“Rae was extremely helpful and kept the house clean. She continued to keep us updated on the dogs while we were out of town. Will definitely have her dog sit for us again 😊”
About: I am a dependable and attentive, pet lover, with experience, caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort needs, and I take pride and making them feel safe, love, and stress-free, while their owners are away. My ex experience includes feeding, walking, administering basic medications, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, overnight care, and maintaining consistent schedules. I’m comfortable with energetic pets, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own, always focus on providing reliable care, clear, communication, and plenty of affection. Whether your pet loves long walks, cuddle time, or just a calm companion, I’m happy to tailor care to fit their needs. I work 8-4 Monday through Friday, I already have a dog and would work any pet into our routine during the week. I can do stop-ins before and after work, and my weekends are very flexible for full attention on pet care. I have a fenced yard, lots of comfy places to lay, a screened in porch for shaded relaxation. My two cats have grown up with dogs their whole life and just mind their business, they may even play with your pet if they are in the mood.
“Cindy was an absolute dream helping me out by dropping in on my two very old schnauzers. They bonded with her quickly and trusted her for hugs and snuggles. She was kind and cleaned up their little messes and joined them in the yard to walk around. I felt very comfortable with Cindy in my home and she was so lovely and flexible. I know I will be using her again.”
About: Hi I’m Sara! I am in nursing school currently and enjoy helping others around me. I have had plenty of experience around dogs and taking care of animals. I helped run my family’s dog business that bred Italian mastiffs and got my very own dog named Bella at the age of 6 who was a Multipoo. I am taking full time nursing courses and am only available from around 3:30-7PM from Monday through Thursday as well as anytime on Friday and Saturdays. I can feed, water, walk, crate, and play with your dog/s. I can also clean up after them and keep up with their daily routine

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Travelers Rest
Christina did amazing with my two dogs! I was a little concerned that she wouldn’t be able to handle my German Shepherd and my other dog, but she did exactly as one should with larger dogs who are skeptical of a new person in the house. I also appreciated her asking about picking up the poop. Very punctual. Proven to be very dependable and mature.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Travelers Rest stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
