“Ava was amazing with my two babies! We were just in town for the weekend for an.App State game and had an Airbnb. Her communication before/during/after was the best! She was so attentive and took great care of my old fella (almost 14) and my super needy hound dog mix. I wish she lived in my town and I would have her babysit more often ! I couldn't be happier or have asked for anyone better.”
“Thank you so much Kendall! I can tell our dogs loved having you drop in for visits, and we were happy to see the cat warmed up to you as well. We loved seeing the photos of all the pets.”
About: Retired from workforce, former military, active person, daily walks with our dogs—neighborhood, parks, trails. Worked with certified dog trainer for our two dogs. Time on my hands. I am retired and have plenty of time when not playing with our own two dogs and exercising. They are the center of our lives. We have a fenced in back yard for our dogs. Since I am retired, and my wife works part time, I spend most of my time with our dogs. We will not bring client’s pets to our home nor will my wife be a caretaker.
About: I have taken care of dogs for 8 years. I value responsibility, care, transparency, and communication when in charge of someone’s pet. Nothing is more important to me than your dog getting to experience fun in a safe environment. I’m a senior at Appalachian State, and my class schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week, including days when I only have one or two classes. I have a dog of my own, so potty breaks, walks, and getting outside are already a big part of my everyday routine—and I’d love for your dog to join us! I especially love long walks, trips to the dog park, and finding fun ways for dogs to get their energy out while getting plenty of attention along the way. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I make sure to care for them in the way that makes them happiest and most comfortable. Whether that means extra playtime, lots of cuddles, a favorite walking route, or simply some quiet company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have two family dogs of my own ages 8 and 7. Beyond caring for these two, I have walked a golden retriever occasionally for a while and assisted with neighbor care of other dogs. I am currently a full time employee, but beyond my work I am more than happy to come play and walk your fur baby! While I work a traditional 8-5, I am happy to come by on my lunch break and after work. I am happy to bring your dog around town for a good walk. I am also happy to just walk them in your neighborhood and play with your dog for extended time depending on the day of the week.
About: I've lived with dogs throughout my whole life, which has given me lots of experience and appreciation for these pets. Additionally, I have experience with dog, bunny, and lizard sitting for locals in my neighborhood. I'm nurturing with pets and I enjoy giving the best experience possible for both the dog and the owner! I'm able to work with pets of all ages, energies and kind. If you have any questions about me or my dog care, please do not hesitate to reach out! Thank you :) I’m currently working part-time and I have plenty of time on weekends and during the week to take care of pets. I especially have time in the evenings, but I’m flexible and open to the pet and owner’s needs. I live in an apartment with no other dogs and can board, I could walk, drop in and house sit for owners. I am flexible to the needs of the pet and owner. The home is clean and decently spacious.
About: Hey there! I can care for all animals big to small, reptile, cat, dog, or farm animal! I am happy to walk, feed, love, groom and more for your pet. I grew up with lots of pets including dogs, cats, a snake, chickens, and a bunny! With this I have a gained a wide range of expertise including administering medication including ear and eye drops. Currently, I have a cane corso named Helen who is getting to be an old lady but she remains the sweetest girl ever, I call her my gentle house hippo💕 I'm happily spending my summer pet sitting while I prepare for grad school! I find so much joy and fulfillment in showering animals with love, attention, and reliable care. I'm excited to make sure your beloved pets get all the cuddles and playtime they deserve and meet their needs! I'd be thrilled to care for your furry friends right in the comfort of their own home, making sure all their needs are met with a personal touch. If you're heading away for the weekend, I'm more than happy to offer overnight stays so your pets can stick to their routine and feel completely at ease. Plus, I love taking pups out for fun adventures, whether it's a lively trip to the dog park or a refreshing walk around the neighborhood!🐶 One of my favorite hobbies includes hiking and running so I am happy to meet your dog’s exercise needs as well!
About: Hi my name is Amelia! I’ve had my dog for 8 years. I’ve been walking and pet sitting dogs for the last 4. I absolutely love animals and have lots of experience with different dog personalities and behaviors. I’m currently available all summer long. Whether you need help on weekends, weekdays, early mornings, late nights, or afternoons. Feels free to shoot me a message whenever you need a helping hand! I do not care for pets in my home on account of my own dog and housing. I can care for a dog in a clients home. However, I just do walks but I’m fine with refilling water or food bowls.
About: I have been caring for my now senior dog since she was a puppy and I was a child. I trained friends and family’s dogs on basic things like sitting and potty training. I worked at a kennel last summer and worked in the play time section, so I’ve learned what to watch out for when a dog is feeling uncomfortable or about to act. I love walking and allowing dogs to explore, I also don’t mind cleaning up after them ! Since starting college at least one of my roommates has always had a cat. I am a cat lover and love kittens or seniors! I’m a full time art student and part time server. I enjoy having a busy schedule and am very flexible! I can help out for as little as a check in or for as long as an afternoon sometimes. I tend to be proximity oriented to avoid missing anything. I’ll stay around them even once we’re done playing as I’ve learn my accident lesson !
About: Not only have I taken care of dogs for a family vet since I was 9, I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility for years! I’ve taken dogs on countless walks, playdates, and even administered medication and provided first aid. Your pup is loved and cared for in my hands! I currently attend ETSU full time, with many gaps between my classes. I am available pretty much all day, every day, with the exception of a few one-hour classes! I come prepared to visit your pup! I let them approach me at their own speed, pace their walk how they please, and observe their body language and adjust accordingly! I have experience in introducing dogs, providing medical assistance, general care for all types of animals, and in rare cases, swiftly and safely breaking up dog fights.
“Don’t know what we would do without Gracie! She loves our furbabies as much as we do. She takes the best care of them and they are always so happy and content when she is around.”

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.
