“As always, a great booking with Kellie! Our girls are so well-loved and taken care of by Kellie, and the peace of mind while we're away is priceless. 100 percent recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since the age of sixteen. Family members and friends have trusted me in taking care of their fur babies when needed. I work full-time during the week, but my weekends are flexible for care Friday through Sunday. I’m available if needed for pop in’s or walks during the week in the evenings. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs that would love to play. Also, if you prefer to keep your fur baby crated I can do that for you.
“Lori did great as always and was able to cover holidays for me. I am so lucky to have her and the kitties are always glad to see her. Mittie watches out the window when she leaves.”
“Madison was helpful as always with my cats, even when I was out during terrible freezing weather. She was very communicative and helpful in doing a few extra things for my home and cats to make sure everything would be okay until I returned. Highly recommend!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a former veterinary technician with six years of experience in equine medicine, I have cared for a wide variety of animals in both professional and personal settings. I have lifelong experience owning and handling hunting dogs, giant breeds, cats, horses, and other farm animals. My background includes administering medications, monitoring animals with special needs, caring for senior pets, and safely and confidently handling horses. I also have experience managing multi-pet households and navigating behavioral challenges, including in-home dog-to-dog aggression, with a focus on safety, prevention, and stress reduction for all animals involved. My schedule is very flexible, and I typically offer drop-in visits in the morning and evening, with each visit lasting about 45 minutes to an hour. If your pet needs additional time, extra potty breaks, medication visits, or a more customized care schedule, I'm happy to work with you to find a routine that fits their needs. A quick note on pricing: my standard overnight house-sitting rate starts at $80 per night for dogs and $50 per night for cats. That said, I understand that many families have multiple pets, and costs can add up quickly. Unless you have a very large number of animals or pets requiring intensive medical care or specialized attention, I typically cap my overnight rates at around $100–$150 per night. If you have multiple pets, horses, farm animals, or a unique care situation, please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm happy to discuss your specific needs and create a customized rate that is fair for everyone.
“Julian was amazing with our two cats! He showed up everyday on time and left detailed descriptions of what he and the cats got up to! We looked forward to the fun pictures and videos he would send at the end of each visit. We know our cats were in great hands while we were away and we will be booking with him again in the future!”
About: I grew up with dogs. I’ve loved and doted on them ever since I can remember. I believe I have a kindred spirit with dogs—all breeds. I’ve proved myself on being able to relate with them, understand them, their needs and train them appropriately. While maintaining the Alpha of the pack, it’s always been about mutual respect between us. Bottom line: I love dogs, and they—me. I currently work during the week for the most part (though sometimes from home) and usually have my evenings as well as my weekends and most holidays free. I’ve had my own dog since he was weeks old and he’s six now—my best friend for sure! I have a fenced house, with a huge yard for playing fetch, running and such with these dogs (especially for high energy dogs) and more than enough spacious expanse for these furbuddies!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already plan my days around feeding, walking, and checking on animals. I make time in the morning, afternoon, and evening for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and updates for owners. I stay organized so every pet gets attention and care throughout the day. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean space, fresh water, regular meals, and lots of attention. I follow the owner’s rules for feeding schedules, crate time, or training. In a client’s home, I keep their pet in their normal routine. I walk them, give them food and water, play with them, and send updates so owners know their pet is safe and happy.
“Jeremy was great! He took care of our cats for 3 days and provided photos, and everything they needed. Jeremy was punctual, easy to communicate with and followed all the instructions we left for him. Our cats loved him, overall 10/10!”
About: Hello! I'm Joy. I have two tripod kitty girls of my own, but I love every cat I meet, and need to meet more. I will be watching dogs as well, however I'm starting off with just the felines 🫶🏻 I'm respectful and professional with how you want your babies taken care of, as well as what you need done around the house. I look forward to working with you! I work full-time as a Behavioral Therapist with kids on the Autism spectrum, I have 3 sons and 2 cats. My schedule will soon open up to more days for pet sitting full-time. I can provide what is needed for your pets, feedings, brushing, petting, playing, litter box cleaning, etc. Please provide details on what you would like taken care of and we can discuss to make sure I'm a good fit for your babies.
“Marsha is the best bar none! She was so loving, kind and attentive to my fur kids. Her notes and reports were wonderful and descriptive and made my absence much easier! Thank you Marsha!”
About: I have owned a dog my entire life, worked in a veterinary clinic, and was a service dog raiser for 3.5 years while getting my Animal Science degree. My friends and family also trust me to sit their dogs when they are away. I am currently unemployed so have a lot of availability during the week. I am usually busy on weekends but have some availabile at times. I will stay in a home with a pet, or bring a pet into my home. The home visits can include walking, feeding, playing, and other requests!
“Valerie has been so wonderful with our dog! She is a rescue who can be timid around new people. Valerie has been accommodating and patient and now they are become fast friends! She has also been flexible and responsive to requests and schedule changes. This is our first Rover experience and we would recommend Valerie to any pet parent!”
About: From owning pets for over 10+ years, I've changed careers and learned new skills so that I would be able to properly take care of my pets by being as present as possible. I'm a dental hygienist, data analyst, web developer, and just an all around nerd - all license and certified, but my passion for animals never faded. One of the best things that I've learned about training pets is, instead of saying no and disciplining, we should guide them to what we want them to do and treat to reenforce the positive behavior rather than punish the negative (I promise, it takes longer, but it keeps them nice) I'm currently working part time and will be available to help with the little ones! I'm currently waiting on my paperwork to process to become a licensed dental hygienist, in the mean time I'm looking forward to diving into one of my passions, helping giving great care to your pet(s)! I would prefer to take care of pets in your home rather than my apartment (to save ourselves from any potential housing issues), and that way there's no extra stress for the little one having to learn a new place while they're getting familiar with a new face!

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.
