“While I was on my honeymoon, Justin did more than a phenomenal job. My husband and I have never used rover before and have a ton of cats (6 inside and 10+ strays we feed). Justin kept me up to date everyday with great photos, told me how they were doing and made sure they ate and we're fine without us haha. If I could ever only recommend one person, it would be Justin. He is absolutely fantastic and if you're looking for someone to take care of your animal while you are gone, Justin is your guy.”

“Chase is the Best - he takes wonderful care of my cat Scooter and my home when I am away. He is a blessing and we are both very grateful when he is able to watch my kitty”

“Brittany was great with cha cha! It was our first time using her and she was so patient as cha cha got used to her. We really appreciated the constant communication and the videos and pictures along the way. Can’t wait to use Brittany again!”

About: Hi! We’re Christina and Brian, a husband-and-wife pet sitting team who love giving pets the comfort and consistency of staying in their own home while their people are away. 🐾 We are both approved Rover sitters and have each completed Rover’s background check, which gives us the flexibility to work together or individually depending on the needs and schedule of each booking. We’ll always communicate with you ahead of time about who will be caring for your pets so you know exactly what to expect. 🐾 One of the perks of our different schedules is that we can offer flexible care. Christina works remotely and when she is the primary sitter, can often work right from your home. This means she is able to spend much of the day with pets who enjoy extra companionship or aren't used to being alone for a traditional workday. Brian works outside of the home during the day, so his housesitting schedule looks more like a traditional work schedule with care before and after work and overnight. 🐾 We understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. We’re happy to follow feeding schedules, walks, medications, bedtime routines, and all of the little things that help your pets feel like life is as normal as possible while you're gone. 🐾 We also know how important it is to feel comfortable with the people staying in your home. We take that responsibility seriously and want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pets and home are being well cared for. We provide regular updates and photos and are always happy to communicate as much or as little as you prefer. 🐾 Before accepting a booking, we like to make sure we're a good fit for your pets, their routine, and the amount of time they’re accustomed to being alone. That way, we can determine which of us is the best fit for your stay and make sure everyone knows exactly what to expect before booking. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible which allows me the ability to work around your needs for pet sitting/walking. I'm happy to talk further about specific needs. I would follow instructions of the pet owner - supervised backyard play, on-leash walks, etc. I always provide updates at each check-in and include photos.

I’m dependable, organized, and happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and daily routines I’m available for pet care on weekends and on weekdays after 4:30 PM. I’m reliable and flexible with scheduling and will make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for pets.

About: Growing up in an animal loving family I've seen it all. I have taken care of several dogs of all ages and sizes and will treat your pet as my own! :) Im currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I specialize in morning and night shifts walks as well as overnight stays and drop-in visits! I have a fenced in backyard with lots of room for your furry friend to run or lounge! My home is child free and a safe place for any animal of any age.
“Our German shepherd (Zeus) is a very anxious, does not like other dogs, does not take treats from people either, some may say aggressive but really, he’s just scared.we needed to find a person that could handle him, in other words know how to take the lead, show him “it’s okay” . We were amazed at how quickly she created a bond with him! Jack has the talent/skill and knowledge for taking care of big anxious dogs and sassy ones too. Recommend 10 out of 10. Now we can take vacations!!”

“Erin was awesome!!!! She took such great care of our animals and was very communicative! She went above and beyond to make my animals feel safe and loved while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for them my entire life. I’ve fostered dogs, cared for multiple dogs at once (including having three at the same time), and have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I also had a senior dog who I lovingly cared for until she passed at age 18, which gave me experience with older dogs, patience, and attentive care. I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always treat pets as if they’re my own. I work Monday-Friday from 7am-2pm, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and nights during the week. I’m also available on weekends and happy to provide care, walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their comfort level and personality. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

About: Hi! Thank you so much for looking at my site. I’ve been pet sitting for over six years. I’m home full time, provide doggy daycare and overnight boarding. The dogs we watch, are truly, part of our family we have over 25 current clients, who have been with us for at least 3yrs, and some six. They truly get excited when they come for visits and see the friends they’ve known for years. The families know each other, and love the other dogs. It’s the relationship with the dogs, and they’re families, that is my favorite part of sitting. I’ve been so lucky to meet incredible families, who’ve become a wonderful part of my life. You’re pet will get lots of attention, outside time in a reserve behind my home, and play time. I’d love to hear from you and meet your sweet friend. Thank you! I’m home full time. This is what I love to do, and your pets needs, and your schedule come first. I’m also incredibly flexible with drop off and pick up times. We have a very clean, dog centered home. The dogs that come here, are very friendly. I will make sure your dog/fur baby (not everyone likes it when I say furbaby😉) has help adjusting to new home, and other dogs, and feels comfortable. Especially if they are shy or anxious. We want them to feel vey comfortable.

About: I have extensive dog sitting experience and a genuine love for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies, laid-back seniors, anxious dogs who need extra patience, and everything in between. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I always strive to create a calm, caring environment for them. I’m experienced with walks, feeding routines, playtime, crate routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving dogs the attention and affection they deserve. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs and personality, whether that means lots of exercise and play or quiet companionship and reassurance. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease. I work full-time, but I carefully plan pet care around my schedule to ensure every pet receives attentive, dependable care and plenty of love. I’m very organized with my routine and make time for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, check-ins, and quality attention before and after work, as well as throughout evenings and weekends. Because I genuinely enjoy caring for animals, pet sitting is something I intentionally make space for in my life — not something rushed or treated as an afterthought. I’m committed to making pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while keeping owners updated and reassured along the way. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and create a calm, comfortable environment while their owners are away. I understand that pets feel safest in familiar surroundings, so I focus on keeping their schedule consistent with feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection and attention. I’m respectful, responsible, and attentive while staying in someone’s home, and I treat both pets and the home with great care. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, haven’t yet met an animal that didn’t like me. I have experience with difficult dogs, nervous and overly excitable fur missiles. I’m willing to work with them as long as I feel safe to do so but im not a trainer, I don’t know how to make them unlearn bad behaviors and learn good ones. Right now I don’t have a regular full time job, I have been searching and applying but no offers as of yet. I have no kids or pets of my own so I’m available at nearly any time, from drop-in visits to overnight sitting. I understand letting a stranger into your home is unsettling, I don’t take it for granted and I’ll do my best to respect your home and pets. I don’t currently have my own home, I live with others so I’m unable to board pets. It tends to be less stress anyways for the pet to stay home where they are in a familiar environment. Unless they have a rigid routine involving sleeping in your bed with you, and won’t go to bed otherwise, I tend to stay on the couch.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 15yrs. I’ve cared and house sat for friends and family and still do till this day! I make sure all pets are given love and made sure they are well taken care of I work a full time job between 8am-5pm monday through friday. Although I work full time I still believe I can help! I would be available to care for pets during the week and if needing care for house sitting I’m open to it just needs to be planned in advanced. :) I have personally 2 pups and 3 cats of my own! We care for our pets giving them the time they need to go outside to potty and run energy out as well as giving them plenty of cuddles! I believe I would good sitter because I would make sure your pets are well loved as well as properly taken care of in the way you would need me.

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.
