“Grace was wonderful with our two dogs and our house. She was extremely good at communicating throughout the process and was very responsive, respectful, and helpful. Highly recommend! But dont hire her too much, we may need her again.”
“Natalia was incredible! She took amazing overnight care of our rescue pup with separation anxiety. Throughout the booking process and the period our dog was in Natalia’s care, she was warm, responsive, and accommodating. I can’t recommend Natalia enough!!”
“Hannah was awesome! She was able to accommodate a last minute booking, including setting up a meet and greet in advance of my departure. During the weekend she gave cute updates and pictures, most of which included my needy pug happily curled up in her lap. Very appreciative!”
“Vinusha took great care of our dog, Stella! Stella gets anxious when we leave, but Vinusha was able to calm her and Stella got comfortable with her almost instantly. Stella can sometimes refuse to eat when someone new feeds her, but she was so at ease with Vinusha that she cleaned her plate! We also really appreciated the pictures, updates, and long walks she gave Stella. We were extremely happy with her care and would highly recommend Vinusha!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had seven dogs and six cats, so caring for pets was a part of my everyday life. From feeding and grooming to playtime, walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention, I learned early on what it takes to help pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for mice, turtles, and fish, giving me experience with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I’ve always had pets throughout my life, and caring for animals has never felt like a chore, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I also spend time feeding and observing backyard birds, which reflects my love and appreciation for all kinds of animals. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat, or another beloved pet, I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Although I have an unfenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. We also have a neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks that are perfect for walks and exercise. If your pet is crate trained or you prefer they be crated when unattended or at bedtime, I’m happy to accommodate that routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own.
“Katie was amazing taking care of my senior dog for a week! My dog doesn't get around good due to her back legs and Katie was so good to support her getting up steps etc. Always made sure she had her daily medicine. Also got daily pictures which always gave me peace of mind being so far away. Would definetly use her again and recommend her to anyone!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Emilee and Denzel. They have sat for my pit Mac twice in my home and this past trip I was away for 10 days. They are so very kind and caring and I couldn’t have felt more confident that they were providing great care for my buddy. The communication/updates and pics is always excellent! I would recommend them if you’re looking for the perfect sitter!”
About: Hi there! My name is La and ever since I was little I have grown up with animals in my home. Starting from puppies to elderly dog, kittens to cats and even some reptiles! I have pet sit for multiple families growing up so I have numerous references so you can feel comfortable leaving your babies with me. Because of these experiences, I have learned how to give dogs medication, train dogs to do tricks such as sit, stay, lay down, paw, jump and play dead. I will treat your fur family as if they are my own so while they will be missing you, they will have a blast playing in the yard, with all of their toys, and with my two dogs. I do have a four year old rescue and a 7 month old golden retriever. We have a big backyard for the dogs to run around and play, plenty of toys, grooming tools, and time to teach new tricks and give your babies lots of love and treats. I work full time as a 911 dispatcher for Montgomery county. On my off days, I’m looking for something that can fill my time. My schedule is VERY flexible. If you need a day that is marked as unavailable on my schedule, feel free to message me. On the days where I do work, it will be between 7am and 7pm, I am still available before and after my shift for a quick visit. Simple answer? Like my own. I have 2 dogs and a kitten of my own, who I love more than most people. I promise to give your fur baby the same amount of love and care I’d hope someone would give mine.
“Maya took great care of our home and dogs while we were away! She was communicative, responsible and patient with our 11 month old lab. Both of our dogs enjoyed their time with Maya.”
“Angelica was great with our large, high-energy dog. She was in constant communication with us throughout the weekend, and took our dog on multiple long walks throughout the day. She is so nice and someone you want to leave your dog with! We will definitely book again, she took great care of our dog!!!”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a day without them. I have a year of being a professional dog walker, and I truly love working with all your furbabies! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities from tiny lap dogs to large breeds like Rottweilers and Pit Bulls. My schedule is very flexible. Mornings and evenings are times I have the most availability. If you need any other times please do not hesitate to reach out! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines, provide food, water, exercise, affection, and ensure a clean, safe, and comfortable environment.
“Angelina was fantastic!! She was the perfect sitter to watch our dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. She was very communicative and my dogs loved her. She left our home spotless, dogs well fed, and checked in with us frequently. Could not recommend her enough!!”
“Cara was the most amazing dog sitter!!! I was out of town for almost a week and didn’t have to worry for a second about my dogs - she took them on long walks downtown, took them to swim in her pool, and they absolutely loved her! I swear they were hoping she would walk in the door when I got home instead of me. Highly recommend Cara for all your pet sitting needs. Thanks Cara!!”
“I had never left my 2 older dogs with anyone besides friends or family before. Alexis was able to fill in at the last minute, and she took great care of my dogs! Both of my dogs are sweet but a little neurotic, but Alexis was a pro. She left the house clean and kept me up to date while I was away.”
About: Hi, nice to meet you, I’m Nick! I’m excited to provide loving and reliable care to your pets. I’m an outgoing individual and I love to express that same personality towards animals too. I’m never too tired or lacking energy to get up and play/care for them. I’ve taken pets on walks to the park before, walks around campus, walks around the city, etc. Whether it’s keeping your pet company, feeding them, or simply making sure they are comfortable and happy, I will make it my job to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I’m dependable, detail-oriented and understand the importance of following each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs and any special instructions. I also believe communication is inportant, so I’m more than happy to provide updates and pictures while your pet is in my care. I work full-time but mainly work remote from home so I’m happy to coordinate my availability in advance to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and other pet care needs. I will always do my best to make scheduling convenient for you. I look forward to making friends with you and providing the best pet care! I work from home a lot so it’s easy for me to tend to my home and take care of what needs to be done. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because besides cooking and keeping the house clean, I don’t really have any other responsibilities I make sure pets in my home are well hydrated and that they are in an environment where they feel free to roam around and have space to feel comfortable
“I can’t explain the relief I feel knowing that cranberry is in great hands with Atisha. Just when I start to really miss my girl, Atisha sends me pictures of them cuddling or on a walk. I am so thankful!!! ❤️🥰”
“Daisy is such a lovely person and was so kind to my dogs. Both took to her right away. She followed feeding and medication schedule with no issues. She also sent us photos and checked in every day. My dogs love her and we are so appreciative of her taking care of them with great care. I will be using Daisy in the future and highly recommend her. Maria B”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Trooper
Renee is truly so caring and loving towards all animals! We felt completely at ease leaving our energetic 80lb. 4 year old boy with her while we were away. She was incredibly trustworthy, checked in regularly, and sent us pictures and videos, which meant so much to us. It was clear that she gave our fur baby much love and attention, treating him as if he were her own. We will absolutely be booking with Renee again in the future!
This was our second time having Taylor as our pet sitter and we are so grateful for her! She went above and beyond to care for our pitbull mix, even while she was having some skin flares. She kept our house immaculate and even handled our trash cans for us. We love Taylor!
Abby is simply FANTASTIC! I have a cardigan corgi who, let’s just say, isn’t the easiest to watch overnight (think stubborn, Velcro, determined, etc.). In other words, a typical corgi who has never been away from me for more than a quick overnight or two. I was quite hesitant to leave her alone knowing how stubborn she can be, but Abby did an amazing job coaxing Tottie (said willful corgi) out of her self-imposed-mad-at-mom-for-leaving-corner. She was fantastic with sticking to her specialized diet due to a kidney stone surgery and was cognizant of the heat, so would take Tot for longer walks post sunrise/sunset once it cooled off. Even better, she knew when Tottie “wasn’t feeling it,” and made sure she went home before even remotely approaching the point of overheating. She also played with Tot indoors when it was too hot outside and made sure she had many snuggles and kisses. Since I was several states away, Abby sent daily updates and photos of the two of them - now best pals - on various adventures or being homebodies. When it was time for me to come home, she left the house incredibly clean (far neater than I had left it!), and even made up the bed with clean sheets so that when arrived home (around 10 PM), I could just head to bed. She also went out of her way and purchased a trellis for my tomato vine, which had really blossomed while I was gone and had overrun what I had originally set up for it, thereby saving all the tomato’s! Bottom line: Abby is the absolute BEST and I will be using her here on out! Thanks so much, Abby!
Kathleen is fantastic! She is communicative and really understands our dogs quirks. She is attentive to their needs and even reminded me about our dog's medication when I forgot to leave it out! She is our go-to when we need a dog sitter. Highly recommend. Thank you, Kathleen!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Trooper walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Trooper maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Trooper choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Trooper. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
