“Gabriela was fantastic with Tuco. Her communication was prompt and excellent, and she made a real effort to understand his care needs before boarding. I’d highly recommend her.”
“Maddie loved staying with Jessica (and Kent), who treated her wonderfully. Jessica kept us well informed about how Maddie was getting on, with lots of lovely photos, and showed a real interest in Maddie's wellbeing (Maddie felt a bit poorly on one occasion). As a Senior dog Maddie appreciated being carried up stairs, and being allowed to sleep wherever she wanted. Maddie would love to come back to Jessica when we are next away.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Shark, received. From the very beginning, it was clear how much love and attention she gives to the pets she looks after. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Shark instantly connected with her and came back happy, relaxed, and full of energy. It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but she went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional petsitter”
“Leena was great with our little puppy, Daisy. It was the first time we’ve left her so we were quite anxious but she put us at ease, gave lots of updates and daisy was very happy when we collected her. Looking forward to visiting again soon! Thanks for taking such good care of our baby.”

“I can’t recommend Abbie highly enough! She stepped in on very short notice to look after my dog, Nala, and truly went above and beyond. From the moment they met, Abbie made Nala feel completely at ease, which was hugely reassuring, especiallly given the short notice! Throughout the stay, Abbie kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. Nala came home happy, calm, and clearly very well cared for. It’s clear that Abbie genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. If you’re looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter, Abbie is absolutely fantastic. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her, and Nala can’t wait to see her again!”

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Nick to look after my German Shepherd for ten days and I can’t recommend him highly enough! From the moment we started working together, his professionalism and genuine love for dogs were evident. Punctuality - Nick was always on time, which I greatly appreciated. Knowing my dog was in good hands at the scheduled times gave me peace of mind. Long Walks - He took my German Shepherd on long, stimulating walks that catered to her energy levels. It was clear he understood the importance of exercise and mental stimulation for a large breed like mine. Safety in the Heat - With the summer heat, I was particularly concerned about my dog's safety. Nick was very mindful of the weather conditions, ensuring that walks were scheduled during cooler parts of the day and providing plenty of water breaks. Check-ins with Photos and Videos - I loved receiving regular updates with photos and videos. It was reassuring to see my dog happy and engaged during their outings and at Nick’s home too. I could see she was being well looked after. This transparency made me feel connected and confident in his care. Knowledge and Handling - His expertise in handling dogs was clear. Nick demonstrated great knowledge about dog behavior and effectively managed my dog’s strong anxiety with a calm and confident demeanor. It was evident he knew how to create a positive experience for her. On top of everything, Nick had a fantastic personality. Friendly, approachable, and relaxed, he made my dog feel comfortable right away. His professional yet easygoing approach was a perfect match for my dog’s temperament. Overall, my experience with Nick was exceptional. He exceeded my expectations, and I felt completely at ease knowing my German Shepherd was in such capable hands. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker! / boarder
Georgina looked after Einstein for the day, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear that Einstein was well looked after and happy. We'd be very happy to book with Georgina again and highly recommend her!
This was Arlo's first time boarding with Darren & Ross. Thank you for making her stay with you so perfect. Having other dogs around to play with was a real treat for Arlo. The daily photos & updates reassured us that Arlo was in good hands & was being cared for very well. Thank you so much Darren & Ross, great to meet you both & plan to use you in the future.
Cathy has been absolutely amazing with Gigi. She’s been really attentive and kept up with daily updates. Gigi had so much fun and Cathy really has been the best dog sitter I could’ve asked for. Thank you for looking after her for those days. I will definitely be looking to coming back in the future.
Luna had a fantastic time with Christine and her family and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was in extremely good hands. Everything from communication, meeting ahead of time and drop off/pick up was super smooth, and I got regular updates and photos which was great. I will definitely be in touch again when Luna needs someone to watch her, and I can strongly recommend Christine as a dog sitter for whoever needs someone to watch their dogs.
This was our dog's first stay with Rob and went as well as any dog-owner could wish for. From our meet and greet session it was clear that he knows a lot about dogs and understands them very well. I picked up a happy and relaxed dog yesterday morning and am really delighted with how Telford's stay went. I thoroughly recommend Rob.

Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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 vet. 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 authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation 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.
