“OK where to start...Tara did a quick meet and greet before the weekend. We have never left our furr-babies with people we didn't know, but right away I felt like she already knew us. She came recommended to us at a last minute. What a wonderful choice! She was punctual stay the whole time slot, took pics. I could tell be the pics my furr-babies were in good hands. Highly recommend her to take care of your furr-babies while away. Thanks so much...definitely on the top of our list.”
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience, I provide personalized care for pets of all ages! I treat every animal like family—playtime, cuddles, and safety always come first! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs like medications or grooming. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I make sure every pet feels cared for and secure. Their happiness and well-being are always my top priority, every single day. I create a calm, clean, and safe environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, pets enjoy a secure space with plenty of toys, supervised playtime, and comfy resting areas. When in a client’s home, I stick to their pet’s routine, keep things tidy, and ensure the pet feels comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or snuggles—I give them all the love and attention they deserve
“Ginger went above and beyond! I just wanted someone to feed Harvey and give him his insulin but she actually cared and played with him! Made me feel better about being gone. Also the Rover Cards I got were some of the cutest pics of him ever!”
“Brooke did a great job taking care of my cat. She was prompt and communicative. She let me know how he was doing and took care of all his needs. Would definitely book her again!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for dogs since I was five years old, starting with my first dog, Skipper. I currently have two rescue mixes—a 14-year-old boxer/husky and a 7-year-old pittie/husky—which has given me a deep respect for senior dogs and the quirks that come with them. I have a particular affinity for dogs with special needs and hands-on experience caring for dogs who are deaf, highly anxious, or require daily medications. I’m patient, observant, and take each dog’s routine seriously—your dog will be safe, understood, and well cared for (even if they pretend not to like me at first). Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, medications, check-ins, and supervision—not just quick drop-ins. I adapt my day around a pet’s existing routine, not the other way around, and I’m available on weekends as well. Translation: your fur baby will be thoroughly cared for, closely monitored, and occasionally wondering why I’m still there. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any house-specific instructions. I’m attentive without hovering and respect both the pet’s space and your home. Everything will be left exactly as you left it, and your pet will be safe, settled, and properly cared for by someone who knows what they’re doing, regardless of how unimpressed your dog or cat may seem.
“Allie took great care of Molly again with no issues! We appreciated her being available during the holiday weekend and loved seeing the sweet pictures of Molly playing and cuddling. Thank you!”
About: Hi, I’m Sarah, a lifelong animal lover and dependable pet sitter/walker who treats every pet like family. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers a quiet cuddle, I tailor my care to their unique needs and personality. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always focused on safety, comfort, and joy. From daily walks and playtime to medication and meal routines, I make sure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re away. I also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing. With experience in caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I provide a calm, confident presence you (and your pet) can trust. My goal is to make every visit or walk feel like a little burst of happiness for your pet. Let’s make tails wag and hearts happy! 🐾 I’m currently a part-time student studying Logistics and Supply Chain Management, and I also work as a bartender. While I balance both school and work, I maintain a flexible schedule and am able to adjust my availability as needed. I’m highly organized and manage my time well, which allows me to stay committed and dependable in all my responsibilities. I always treat animals in my home with love, patience, and respect. Whether it’s my own pets or ones I’m caring for, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. With my experience at the shelter, working for a groomer, and raising my own pets, I’ve learned how to understand their needs and provide a calm, nurturing environment. Giving animals the attention, care, and affection they deserve is something I take to heart every day.
“Hayleigh was a dream to work with! She was very flexible when my schedule changed and took amazing care of my babies. She took a lot of pictures and spent ample time with them both! Will definitely book with her again !”
About: I am a 31-year-old cat and dog lover. I grew up with a Pomeranian who I absolutely adored, and dogs always brighten my day. Three years ago, I adopted an adorable kitten, Cora, who follows me around all day, and I have officially become a crazy cat lady. I will love your cat as much as my own. I grew up caring for my family's Pomeranian from the time I was 13, and I have hands-on experience pet-sitting for friends and neighbors. I am very responsible, and safety is my number one priority. Whether you need dog walks, drop-in visits, playtime, daily photos, or just someone to hang out with your pets, I can help! I have a very flexible schedule and am free any time of day to fit into your routine. If you are out of town, I would also be happy to water your plants, get the mail, or do anything else you might need - just ask! I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet at home while you're away, and would be happy to meet with you before booking to make sure that I connect well with both you and your pet. I am currently taking a career break, so I am free mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because of this, I have plenty of time to give your pets all the attention and care they need! Since I offer drop-in visits and dog walks, I care for pets right in the comfort of their own home where they feel safest and most relaxed. When I visit, I stick closely to your pet's routine: whether that means heading out for a great walk, making sure they have fresh food and water, engaging in playtime, or just hanging out and giving them plenty of love and cuddles. For cats, I'll happily scoop the litter box, keep them company, and make sure they feel pampered. Safety is my top priority, so I am hyper-aware to make sure doors, gates, and windows are completely secure every time I come and go. I will keep them safe and closely monitored during outdoor time, making sure they always return home secure and happy after their walk. You'll also receive daily photo updates during every visit, so you can have total peace of mind while you're away!
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for the past 10 years, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I recently lost my 2 beloved dogs after nearly a decade together, which inspired me to sign up as a volunteer at my local animal shelter so I can continue spending time caring for dogs and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm, reassuring companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'll treat your dog with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I'd want for my own. I work weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., but I'm available before and after work every day, as well as all evenings and weekends. I'll make sure your dog receives plenty of love, attention, and quality care. I can also step away from work, on my lunch break, depending on the day. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My husband and I own our home. I have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor play and will always provide close supervision, plenty of affection, and a calm, loving environment where your pup can feel right at home. I can also crate your pup if needed!
About: I am a dog-loving household excited to welcome your dog into our home. Your furry friend will be treated like family, enjoying plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship with our friendly dogs in a safe, caring, and comfortable environment. I work from home, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. Our three responsible teenagers love dogs and enjoy playing, cuddling, and helping provide loving care to every furry guest who stays with us. Our pet-friendly home provides a safe, welcoming environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised play, a pool, and a quiet, walkable neighborhood perfect for daily exercise, potty breaks, and relaxing strolls to keep your dog happy and comfortable.
About: My name is Emily. I work full time in public service and I am a dog mom to a Golden Doodle named Rudy. I have 4+ years of working in animal care from working in shelters, as a veterinary assistant, and have cared for my neighbor's pets when needed. I am able to administer medications and care for any pets that have special needs due to having experienced working in both small and large animal clinics. I will treat your fur baby like my own! I currently have availability on week days in the evening and weekends all day. In the summer from end of June to mid - July I will have all day availability as well. My dog Rudy is very friendly and can accompany on visits if permitted or requested. I have a park close to my house and can commute to any area for a needed walk.

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.
