“Ryane is very professional and friendly. My dogs were well-taken care of & played with. Ryane had no issues with the alarm system & I am completely comfortable having her in my home & taking care of my precious boys. Thank you Ryane!!”
“Vivienne was wonderful and my cats absolutely loved her. She was respectful of our property and kept me up to date on all of her visits. I'll be reaching out to her in the future for any of my pet sitting needs and I would recommend that you do as well.”
About: I've taken care of multiple cats and dogs for the past 7 years, have helped with house sitting and dropping in to keep energetic dogs from tearing apart the house while the owners are away, and have walked dogs for quite a bit. I have also owned or lived in households where there are multiples cats and dogs, so taking care of more than one animal at a time is not an issue for me. I work night shifts and can easily pop out during the day to take care of any animal, stopping by the house to let the dog out as frequently as needed, feeding the pets, etc. I also have my own car, so transportation is not an issue. For pet care, it entirely depends on the animal. Basics, however, include feeding and providing fresh water, cleaning out litter boxes on a regular basis, and making sure dogs or more active pets get the exercise they need throughout the day.
About: Peace of mind pet care! Hi there! I'm Noelle! I'm a 35 year old animal enthusiast. I have years of personal experience being a dog and cat guardian. I have also worked with animals in a retail setting and a shelter setting. I bring to the table knowledge of pet behavior, basic care, food, toys, treats, health and wellness products, accessories, and more (a little of everything). I believe all pets are family members and will treat them as though they were my own. I will try my best to accommodate any special needs or requests you may have. I'm always receptive to questions or concerns so feel free to ask! I'm trying to earn money to help support my furry family by spending some time with yours! I look forward to making some new fur friends! Please allow enough time before your furbaby is under my care for a Meet and Greet. I will not accept service requests without a proper meeting! I want to confirm your baby, my babies, and myself will be safe and comfortable during our interactions! Don't hesitate to ask me questions if your booking falls outside my normal availability. I will do my best to make your needs work with my schedule! Currently trying to make this my main kibbles and bits! I'll consider any request and try to make it work! I take clients on weekdays and am NOT an early riser! Afternoons and evenings are perfect! I am hypervigilant with my own furbabies and will be with yours as well! Potty time will always be supervised (if you have a fence) and a leash is a must for walks! I will stay by their side the whole visit!
“Lynn was great at communicating and sending me a photo of my cat while I was away everyday! She washed the water bowls daily, cleaned the litter boxes well, and overall was an excellent caregiver to my senior cat while I was away. Would highly recommend her!”
“Madison did great with my cat and dog. She was very professional and friendly, and they both took to her right away when she came over for a pre-trip meet. She was also punctual and polite and always uploaded pictures when she came by for the feed/walk. I will definitely be a repeat customer of hers.”

“Alannah is wonderful to work with. She took very good care of our girl, Lucy, before she passed away. And now, Alannah takes good care of our newest babies, Doc and Wyatt. Highly recommend her.”
“Charlotte did an excellent job with my dogs and I could see in the pictures how comfortable they were with her. This was the first time I had someone come in to help and I was instantly amazed at how much the dogs liked her. I would recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for assistance and hope to use her again in the future.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was the little kid that visited the neighbors just to see their dogs. I have dog sat on many occasions. I am very detail oriented and love abiding by schedules. I do not mind the size of the dog either. The more dogs you have the better. I will gladly meet the dog(s) beforehand to see if they are comfortable with me. Other pets are also welcome too! The most animals I have watched at one time was three dogs and one cat. I am not opposed to light cleaning for the animals when necessary. Any routines you have for feeding or walking will always be followed. If you have any questions please ask me. I look forward to meeting your pets!
About: I don't know that anything sets me apart, if you love a animal you love them, you do whatever needs to be done without question and with love. I'm retired at this point but I enjoy animals of all kinds, I take care of many friends and families animals when they go away vacation, work, or in the case of any kind of emergency. Cat's, dogs, horses, etc.❤️ Right now I live alone I have a senior dog and for her care until her time.I would love another baby in my life. Thankfully!
“Andrew was incredible!! He watched our 2 cats while we were out of town for about a week and was very quick to respond and sent us lots of pictures. He was very accommodating to some last minute changes and was so good with our little kitties!! Will definitely be using his services again. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats as pets, so have lifelong experience caring for animals. My family owned a small farm for a period of time, so I also gained experience with horses in addition to cats and dogs. We owned a German Shepard and a cockapoo, so I do have direct experience with both smaller and larger dogs. In high school, I took 4 years of animal science, which further advanced my knowledge of pets and gave me hands on experience in a pre-veterinarian science atmosphere. I plan on returning to school in the near future to further my studies in the animal sciences field and pursue a career as a Veterinarian Technician. I have had a life full of loving animals and live to care for them any way I can.
“Lori is excellent! She is patient, kind, thoughtful and treated my pup and home as if it were her own. My boy loved his visit and I loved knowing he was in good hands when I was away from home. Highly recommend Lori as your pet sitter!”
About: Hi, I'm Aly! I am available for dog walking and drop-ins; I am also open to taking care of your cats.I have experience administering insulin as well since my cat has had diabetes. I have a large fenced in yard they could run around in. I have about 10 years of pet care experience (walking, feeding, potty breaks, etc). I will walk your pup as often as you like. Being a pet owner I understand what an important part of the family our dogs are, and would provide the best care possible. I have owned dogs my entire life, and will treat your fur baby like it is my own and we'll have the best time! I will always keep you updated with pictures & status updates :) I am very patient, responsible, and punctual.... I can't wait to meet you and your pup! Looking forward to hearing from you! My schedule is really open and flexible right now. I can make myself available anytime during 8AM - 5PM but I can be flexible if needed. As a remote worker and proud cat parent, I’m used to structuring my day around feeding schedules, playtime, and regular check-ins. Whether it’s giving morning meds, refreshing food and water, or simply providing some companionship, I enjoy making animals feel safe and loved. Caring for pets isn’t a chore—it’s a rewarding part of my everyday life. In both settings, I prioritize open communication with pet owners to understand each pet’s unique needs and preferences, ensuring a personalized and caring experience for every pet.

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.

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.
