“Choose Angela if you want worry-free care for your pets. Angela was quick to respond to any messages and did an awesome job making sure my cat was fed, watered and happy. I will use her again without hesitation. Thank you, Angela!”
“We have a special needs pup who didn't have the greatest start in life, so when we adopted him we made a conscious decision that we'd never, ever leave him alone. Booking Hitha to sit with Rudy was the very first time we've ever left him in the care of someone else and we have nothing but wonderful things to say! Hitha is very quiet, calm, and gentle so we could tell right away that she was going to be a great match for our pup -and she was! He took to her immediately and decided she was his new best friend, so much that when it came time for her to leave, he cried for her which is really saying something given his horrific past. Hitha has those special 'Snow White' qualities that animals pick up on and we are so happy, thankful, & grateful to have had such a wonderful experience leaving our pup in the care of someone else for the very first time.”
“Christian took amazing care of Shifu! He looked after him for 5 days and was prompt, reliable and thoughtful. I got regular photo updates every day, which really put me at ease when I was away. I’d absolutely book Christian again without hesistation. Highly recommend.”
“Juniper was communicative and was patient and understanding to my pups anxiety with new people. She made sure to touch base throughout her first visit to let me know how it was going.”
“We were a little nervous letting someone we didn’t know into our home, but Brooke was incredible! She took awesome care of Bug and we felt totally comfortable. Will definitely be reaching out to her again! 🫶🏼”
“Wei-Chien watched our cats and did a fantastic job. We have a fairly tedious routine between meds and special food for each cat and she executed them with no issues. I am definitely booking with her again for our pet sitting needs. Thanks Wei-Chien!”
About: I absolutely adore animals, especially dogs and cats. I began pet sitting when I was around 17 years old. My love grew as I got older and more established in my care. My experience ranges from kittens and puppies to seniors. Despite the age I've worked with, I've worked with many temperaments. Shy, energetic, anxious, you name it! I'll always be sure to provide the right attention to your pet. I will also provide playtime, affection, and keep their water bowls full. Rest assured that your pet will be in the right hands. I am a part-time student and employee. Despite that, I will work around my schedule to deliver your pet the best care they can have. My availability is open Monday, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Morning through night. I can provide morning walks and feedings, mid-day drop ins around lunchtime, and nightly checks as well. I know how stressful it can be putting your pet into the hands of someone else, so I'm always okay with meeting first to put any stressors you may have to rest. I will send consistent messages, photos, and location updates to you regarding your pet and their safety. I understand maintaining cleanliness and building routines, and I will cater to your pet's needs, whether that be a simple drop-in, dog walk, or house sitting.
“Alfonso is conscientious, caring, and very attentive to our dogs. We trust him completely - whether it’s dog walks, in home visits, feedings, training - you name it, he’s THE BEST. He also takes the most amazing pics of our pups - he could be a pro photographer on the side 😃! And bonus - our dogs absolutely adore him! If you want peace of mind with someone who genuinely cares for dogs, Alfonso is your guy! We’ve been using Alfonso for years and couldn’t be happier that we found him on Rover. If we could give him 10 stars, we would!!”
About: I have cared for animals ever since I was very young, and officially at 9 years old when I got a little hands on experience caring for horses at my riding club. Then more hands on experience when I officially started volunteering at my club for 2 years. But more importantly, I have cat care, and dog care experience. I am responsible for my 2 kitties that I own and I have dog sat 2 puppers for a family friend in the recent past. Animals are a huge part of my life and it has been my dream to follow a career path based around animals ever since I was a little kid. I genuinely want more pet sitting experiences and I would love to care for as many fur babies as I possibly can. I work part time so I have lots of availability in my week to take care of your fur babies. During my available days which are Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, I am very flexible and will be ready to care for your pets at the times you need me to. To keep my kitties safe, my home is cat proofed and I am always on the look out for small objects, wrappers, or anything on the ground that might be dangerous for them. I will do the same in your home to make sure your pets are safe and sound. I will safely take your dogs on walks, feed them, and play with them based on the routine you would like me to follow. As well as any special feeding instructions they have. I will keep your puppers and kitties entertained and well fed. I will also clean their food and water dishes when needed and snuggle with them. I can adjust to whatever your pet needs based on their personality, energy level, or whatever they need in general.
“Sandra was great with my shy dog Zig. She was careful to follow my instructions perfectly making sure my cats stayed in while Zig went out to do his business. She updated me immediately sending photos letting me know all was well. I trust her completely and will definitely use her again. She's super conscientious and Zig warmed up to her immediately. Thanks Sandra!”
“Jeany was so great! My cat seemed to love her! She took a good amount of photos, cleaned up any messes, and had plenty of cuddle time with our gal. Next time we are away she will be my go to, if she is available that is. Thank you for giving us peace of mind Jeany.”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our pug, Marcy! She stopped by several times while we were away to make sure that Marcy was fed, walked, and got some quality play time. I really appreciated the pictures she took, as I always miss Marcy so much when I’m away. Tiffany is extremely knowedgable in dog care. I felt very safe leaving Marcy in her hands. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Timea was amazing! My cats were extremely well looked after. Their visit report cards always had some extra notes about what the cats themselves were up to and multiple cute pics. They quickly started trusting her (which is rare for one of our cats) and I never worried about them knowing they were in such good hands. Will definitely be calling Timea again in the future. Highly recommended.”
About: I have had dogs for about 20 years and I am an experienced Show Handler and have trained my stubborn hound and participated at National level competitions. I also have a sniffspot - Jazz the Afghan Hound's Dog Park . I prefer only booking a week or two out . Will only board only one or two dogs at a time . Will provide daily walks, exercise in my huge fully fenced property. I have a full time work but work a lot from home and can also take pets to work. My twin teenagers help with the Rover care . We take care of the clients as a family so you are assured a loving home. I will provide walks, exercise a huge space to run, have outdoor covered and indoor kennels. Require pet insurance and your vet contact detail for the best care,
“Raquel is my fav. I literally won’t go out of town with out booking her. She is so thorough and attentive to my two kitties. She truly is the only person I feel genuinely safe leaving them with. If you want your pets taken care of just as well as you would care for them, she is your girl.”
About: Contributing to the well being of animals and their families is what i do best. Realibility and kindess are key characteristics I rely on. Always happy to help your special critters. With working full time I look forward to weekends where I can take care of others' animals. They would get my full attention and support. Pets staying in my home would have the luxury of a doggy door, fenced yard, lushes grass, comfy couches and beds! When staying in your own home we will follow any guidelines left by the owner.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Union Hill-Novelty Hill
Excellent service; very professional, caring and reliable mother/daughter team. They made friends very quickly with our very shy rescue cat. They take good pictures and send detailed information on how the cat is doing. We look forward to reading their comments on the Rover Card. This is our second time using them, and we will continue in the future. We highly recommend them!
Yihua took such great care of Kaiju and gave her so much love while I was away. Kaiju is normally pretty timid, so it made me so happy seeing her come out of her shell. She was great at communicating and made the whole trip stress-free. I’d absolutely book her again!
Ben did a great job with our three cats. He arrived reliably to take care of their necessities, and ensured each cat got some attention and play time. This was especially important for our most skittish cat who can be hard to coax out, especially when her brothers like to hog the toys. We immediately noticed when we got home that she was more interactive and assertive at play time which is fantastic. He always sent us pictures and short videos from each visit, and we looked forward to each of them daily. We would definitely hire him again.
Ace did a great job with our cats, both of whom have different needs that are (unfortunately) incompatible. Ace was super professional and knew how to handle our cats through clear experience. Check-ins were timely and everything was done “up to spec” per the instructions and walkthrough we did. And our cats were nice and happy when we got home!

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 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.
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 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.
