“This was my first time using Rover for my new puppy and Elizabeth was amazing. From our meet & greet to the day of the drop-in, she was so kind, highly responsive, and followed my instructions to a T! I look forward to rebooking and highly recommend Elizabeth.”
“Lindsay took great care of our 2 cats. They require pills twice a day and one of them is a finicky eater and they are love to play but are hard to get playing. She established trust with them, they seemed comfortable with her and were eating well. Her communication with us was great. Through her check in descriptions and great pictures we had a good idea of how the cats were doing so we weren’t worried if they were comfortable or happy.”
“Reagan is wonderful! While we were out of town for ten days, Reagan did two drop in visits a day with our two boy cats. She was so loving and attentive to them. She’s super detail oriented with their routines and was up for dealing with all their cat quirks. She played with them every visit and sent us the most fun pictures and updates each time! Both cats, even our very shy guy, clearly loved hanging out with her. We so appreciate Reagan’s help with our little guys. We will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve taken care of big and small dogs all throughout my life! I enjoy being around animals and giving them the right care they deserve. I have much free time and am looking to care for animals who need someone around! My schedule is flexible for those who may need unique hours for their pets. I have a small dog who is trained to stay within the yard and two indoor cats. Have always kept the cats inside and get along well with my dog.
About: Growing up, my family welcomed many rescued animals into our home, from a beagle mix and a golden retriever to a Jack Russell terrier, turtle, guinea pig, bunny, and even a horse. My love for animals inspired me to start pet sitting for friends and family in high school, giving me experience caring for a variety of pets, including pit bulls, greyhounds, golden retrievers, Australian shepherds, and cats. Kaiti is a freelance photographer who works from home, which allows her plenty of time to visit, walk, and shower your pets with love. Quixem, her partner, is a journalist for KING 5 by day and joins her for overnight pet sitting. While Quixem is allergic to cats, Kaiti can still check in on your feline friends and keep them entertained whenever needed. When caring for pets in my home or my client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment to ensure pets feel secure and happy. I make sure to understand each pet’s unique needs and routines, from feeding schedules to favorite activities, so I can provide care tailored specifically to them. Building trust with pets and their owners is essential to me. I offer meet-and-greets before any new sitting arrangement to allow pets to get comfortable with me. For each stay, I send regular updates, photos, and notes on how your pet is doing, so you feel connected and reassured. My goal is to make you feel confident that your pet is in caring, capable hands.
About: I grew up around cats, dogs and hamsters. We have had 2 boxers previously, one of which I have cared for through his late senior years, so I know what extra special care senior animals may need. I am comfortable diaper-changing, walking a their pace and administering medications. I have experience house-sitting and pet-sitting for various pets throughout my life — mostly cats and dogs. My son currently has a Leopard Gecko, so I have some insight into caged reptiles too, but am willing to learn more and care for them too, if needed. I am a Stay-at-Home-Mom with an open schedule. I can easily fit in dog walks, or house-visits to care for a pet. (I have a 1.5 year old daughter who will mostly like need to come with me on these visits.) You can trust me to walk your pet or come pop-in for a visit to feed and care for them. I love all animals and am happy to help them feel loved and less alone while you're gone.
“Skylar checked in on our pup while we were out of town. She was very candid about asking questions (i.e: it’s going to be snowing, should I close the doggy door? Etc...) which I really appreciated. We could tell our little girl was being well taken care of in our absence. We’d recommend her for sure!”
“Brooke is simply amazing. She came to walk our dog so last minute and really saved the day for us. She is so sweet and very communicative. She was also so good with our pup who can be very shy. She took her for a long walk and made sure to clean her paws. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone. Brooke is wonderful!”
About: I am an active pet sitter with a dog of my own who loves to play! We have a house with 2 acres fenced where the dogs can run around and play. I have worked with all kinds of dogs including elderly, dogs recovering from medical problems and dogs with anxiety. I am very flexible I just ask that your dog can get along with mine! I am very active so if your dog needs a good workout I would love a running buddy! I currently work from home which leaves me with very flexible schedule. I am currently working remote so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with your pups! I am also very active and happy to go for walks or runs. I have a dog that I care for and have lots of space for more. I prefer boarding in my home as I have a lot of space and a dog of my own. I’m around most of the time for feeding, playing, etc.
About: I've had the privilege of owning two dogs - one was 19 years old and the other was 14 when our dogs passed away. I have really enjoyed looking after neighbors' and friends' dogs, whether it was boarding them or taking them for regular walks. I currently work full-time, but I am free every weekend and Monday mornings. Dogs are happiest with someone. If your pet loves to be walked and to have someone to interact with, then we will be very happy together. I believe exercise and attention are the key to a settled, healthy, pet. We live in a quiet neighborhood and our backyard is fenced on 3 sides. We have a sturdy stake with a chain for dogs who prefer to be left alone to get on with business. If possible, I like to combine pet potty time with a good long walk as it’s more enjoyable for everyone.
“Emma did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats over the holidays. Even our skittish one would come out for them. We loved the daily photos we received and the quick communication. Great job, we will definitely hire again.”
“Susannah did GREAT with our cat who is quite finicky and generally doesn't like anyone except her two humans, our cat quickly warmed up to this true animal lover. Our cat also has a very specific diet, and Susannah was understanding about how important it is for us to keep her on her special feeding schedule, followed all instructions perfectly, we are extremely pleased and very appreciative of Susannah's help over the 6 days we were away and will definitely request Susannah again!”
“Sage did a wonderful job taking care of Licorice! He managed to deal with our apartment instructions and make sure our pup had his trips to the bathroom! I look forward to booking with him again!”
“I seriously couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter. She played with her, gave her so much love and attention-to the point where my cat prefers to play with her-, stayed with her for many hours, and made sure she wasn't lonely while I was away. I was completely off grid for over a week but Jade still sent me updates and pictures and it was so obvious how much my cat loved her; she even allowed belly rubs and that’s rare! Honestly, I think my cat had more fun on her vacation than I did on mine. Coming home to a happy, relaxed cat instead of a stressed one meant everything to me. She went so far above and beyond what I expected, and it gave me complete peace of mind while I was traveling. I would trust her with my cat again in a heartbeat and couldn't recommend her more!”
About: Hi, I'm Cathi, your dogs new favorite auntie. I'm a calm, trustworthy, animal loving human based in the Seattle area, I genuinely adore caring for dogs. I fostered dogs for Gingers Pet Rescue for many years and have cared for senior dogs as well. What you can expect from me: Lots of love, I'm a respectful guest in your dogs routine. Reliable updates + photos so you feel at ease. Calm, attentive energy . Walks, playtime, enrichment and plenty of sniffing time. Clean, safe, comfortable environment. No chaos, just steady care. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I'd love to meet you. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m already someone who prioritizes movement, fresh air, and a calm, consistent schedule. I structure my days around walks, outdoor time, and staying present, so caring for dogs feels like a perfect match. Your pup won’t just get a quick check-in — they’ll get steady attention, gentle companionship, and a sitter who truly enjoys making them feel safe, loved, and at home. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe and understood. When caring for your pet in your home, I bring calm energy and follow your routine closely so your pet feels secure. I’m mindful about leashes, doors, gates, and household safety, and I always take time to check in emotionally with your pet — especially if they’re shy, anxious, or adjusting. I’ll send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in loving hands. 🌈🐾
About: I have over 15 years of experience taking care of dogs at home, including the full puppy to elder stages of life. I also have more than four years of experience walking, dropping in on, and house-sitting for others and their dogs. I have experience caring for up to three dogs in the same household at one time, so taking care of or walking multiple dogs is not a problem. Additionally, I have volunteered at veterinary hospitals, so I am comfortable administering oral medications and am comfortable around dogs of all sizes. I’m currently in between jobs after moving back to the West Coast, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I am mostly available in afternoons and evenings all days of the week. I have spent time living and training with very friendly dogs as well as reactive dogs. Your dog’s safety and comfort comes first! I have experience with crate training and administering oral medications.

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.
