“Cynthia was great with our rescue puppy who takes a long time to warm up to people. Our other dog fell in love with her immediately. Will definitely book more drop in visits with her.”

About: First off I have owned dogs/cats since I was 8 and I’m a huge pet lover! I have 2 dogs and a cat which are all very loving and well socialized with all types of pets and people! My husband and I have been happily married since 2018 and have 2 children. I am a stay at home wife and mom and love to spoil all fur babies and give them lots of lovings. I’m a big walker and love a good game of fetch, tug of war, frisbee, or just running around with everyone! I have a reliable car so I’m offering at home sitting where I’ll take your pet out every hour if needed and play/take them on walks. I’m also available to just stop by to walk/play with your pet for any desired amount of time. I am completely open and offering doggy day camp where we will play, go for walks, and socialize with other pets and people. My biggest hit is overnight care so if you go on vacation, need a couple nights/days to yourself, emergencies... I’m available to keep your fur baby over night and for long periods of time no matter the circumstance. I do not require your pet be crate trained if I’m sitting at my house or during doggy day camp but if they stay over night I require they be crate trained or atleast potty trained. I’m completely open to sitting/caring for cats or other pets you may have except for reptiles. While your pets are with me I will be working on training them and perfecting manners with consistent treats and praising for good behavior. I’m very patient and love working with animals! I’m extremely flexible and don’t need much notice for thoes times you’re in a pinch! If you choose to leave your pet with me then I guarantee your pet will be well loved and treated with much respect and gentleness!! I am currently a stay at home mom and will have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention and care they need. We live in a smoke free environment and have 2 dogs and a cat for your kiddos to play with. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I respect your personal space while taking care of your fur baby!

About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was 19. I have experience giving medication with my own dogs and worked at a dog boarding place in the past. I promise to love on your dog like they are my own. I work full time Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm. I’m free most weekends. I’m able to come check on a dog before work and after work. I could possibly go on my lunch break around 1 pm if not too far from my house. Right now I’m not offering services in my house because I have an older dog with vision and health issues. She is more of a people loving dog! At the clients house I will make sure your dog gets plenty of affection and play time. I will try my best to keep them on their normal schedule with potty breaks and meal times. Please make sure to tell me all your dogs favorite things!

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior rescue dogs. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I understand that every dog has different needs and routines. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship while you're away, I'll treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and care I'd give my own. I'm dependable, detail oriented, and happy to follow any instructions you provide so your dog can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I have a fairly flexible schedule for work, so mornings and evenings most days I can work in pet care without much issue. Weekends I have mostly free as well. When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, medications (if needed), walks, playtime, and any other care your pet is used to receiving. I know every pet has a different personality. Some love attention and play, while others prefer a calm, quiet presence. I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own, keeping everything clean and secure. During each visit, I'll send updates with photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were puppies my oldest was 15 years old he’s finally crossed over the rainbow bridge ! I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for a year and 2 months as well where I specialize in cleaning after the dogs taking care of them and of course having fun with them as well The Animal Keeper is the name of the place I work at. I work with dogs on a daily basis, my job entitles me to work with all types of dogs from small little cute dogs to big Great Danes who think they’re still lap dogs. I will watch over them closely, if I sit down to watch tv they’ll be right there with me, if I go out to grab something to eat they’ll be right there with me, if I go out into the backyard( if you have one of course) they’ll be right there with me they will have the most enjoyable time in my care!

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.
