“We are so grateful for the wonderful care Rylee gave our dogs while we were away. She was incredibly kind, reliable, always on time, and communicated with us every step of the way. The pictures and updates she sent meant so much to us and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. It's clear she genuinely loves animals, and we felt completely comfortable trusting her with our dogs. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”
“Kimberly is simply wonderful. She truly loves animals and it shows in the way she cares for my dog. She's professional, attentive, and always notices the little things that might need attention, which makes me feel comfortable knowing my pup is in good hands. I'm so happy I found her and appreciate everything she does. I wholeheartedly recommend her—she'll treat your pets with the same love and care.”
“My very first encounter on the app and with the sitter! I was so nervous but Michele made me and Gojo (or mainly me) feel comfortable while being separated for our first time.!”
“Laura was great checking in on our cat! Didn't have any issues while we were gone and great communication. Everything was nice and tidy when we returned. Would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Heather always takes great care of our pups and was quick to respond to a last-minute request! She is always very communicative, with lots of photos and updates, and on time! We will continue to reach out to her when we need a dog sitter - thank you, Heather!”
“Excellent, caring service as always! Krysten is the best! She goes above and beyond everytime she takes care of my cat, Wolfy. I always know he is so well taken care of, and it gives me such a sense of calm to go away, knowing he is in good hands. I highly recommend Krysten for all your pet needs. A++++++++++”
“2 dogs and 3 cats. Pleasant from the 1st meet & greet. Loved the photos daily. Good communication and on time for visits. It’s hard to find someone to trust, so look not further. This can be your person too. Thank you!!”
“Brianna has been wonderful to work with. She’s great at reading my dog’s cues and always makes sure he gets plenty of quality time and attention. I feel confident knowing he’s well cared for when he’s with her, and I would happily recommend her to others. 💗”
“Daisy is kind, considerate and communicative! We’ve booked with her many times, and will continue to do so. It’s nice to know we don’t need to stress about our fur babies when we’re out of the area 💛”
“Emily goes above and beyond every time she cares for our dog. Our puppy wasn’t feeling well recently and Emily voluntarily cleaned up the accident. We always appreciate her looking after our dog!”
“Christine was absolutely fantastic, went above & beyond my expectations! This was my first time using Rover or any pet sitter I didn’t know. She came to meet my pups twice before we went out of town to be sure they were familiar with her. They both get pretty excited around people and can be a bit much, but Christine was calm and loving from the minute she walked in. She sent photos at each visit and reassured us our fur babies were in good hands. So thankful to have found her, I will recommend her to my local friends that may need a pet sitter!”

About: I'm a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother of four, and I have one dog (yellow lab mix) and two cats! I love animals and since we are home majority of the time, your pet will have ample love, attention, and care. MY entire downstairs is tile and we have a backyard, so puppies still needing house training would be acceptable. I'm happy to walk/run with dogs, care for cats, come to your home to do check ins, whatever you're looking for, just ask! I have taken care of animals for family, and I appreciate any details or notes you have so I can provide the very best quality of care for your individual pet. I am home majority of the day with my kids. I have young kids ages 5-11 and I homeschool, so we are home most of the time. I take our dog on a walk or run in the morning around 7am or earlier, and again in the evening if the weather is nice. I have plenty of time for loving and caring for your pet! I offer care in our home, or in yours depending on your needs. Your pet will be exercised, fed, watered, loved, played with, cleaned up after, and all around cared for and adored. I can only provide care to animals who are okay with children and other pets, to keep everyone safe from natural pet instincts to protect themselves. My children have been taught to use only gentle and loving hands with slow approach with adult supervision. In the event we need to leave the house I do require kenneling for dogs if they are known to chew/scratch. I am happy to provide pictures and updates, so that you can rest assured your pet is happy and thriving while you are away.
“Claudia has been the best! She has looked over our pups a few times now and its been wonderful. Our new puppy Enzo is very scared of people and Claudia kept trying to help him not be afraid. From when he met her until the last visit he has improved so much! Thank you :)”
About: I have lived with and cared for animals my whole life and absolutely love and respect them and all their different personalities l. I grew up with a giant cage of birds, 5 guinea pigs and a chinchilla to now living with 2 cats and a dog. I genuinely adore animals and have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I will go above and beyond to ensure that your fur baby feels cherished and cared for. I am also a professional photographer so I’ll be able to capture some incredible memories with your fur babies if you let me! I am currently working part time. My bartending shifts are on average no more than 6hrs, 2-3 days a week. I am also a professional photographer with sessions only lasting 1-2 hrs so I have plenty of time to give the right attention to your fur babies. I decided to rent a large house with a yard for my fur babies to run around and go outside whenever they need to. I prioritize their physical health and diligently maintain their schedules, and provide them with a balanced and nutritious diet tailored to their specific dietary requirements. I understand the importance of exercise and engage them in stimulating activities to keep their bodies strong and agile. I recognize the significance of mental and emotional well-being in pets and create a safe and comfortable space for them, complete with cozy beds, engaging toys, and hiding spots for relaxation. Regular playtime and interactive sessions help stimulate their minds and prevent boredom. Whether it's puzzle toys, training sessions, or engaging in their favorite games, I actively promote mental stimulation and social interaction.
“Shelby did a great job with the weekly visits for my pup. She is super flexible and very good with communication, always responding very quickly! My shy dog warmed up to her right away, which is rare for my girl. Definitely would love for Shelby to take care of my pup in the future :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waddell
Chuck was great at taking care of our cat Trina. She is a challenge because her past life causes her to avoid strangers. Chuck understands all that. We appreciate how neat and clean he kept everything and his photos and reports of his visits. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was taking good care of her so we could finally take a trip that was long overdue.
Our "cat whisperer"!! Our cats love her and wait at the door for her. She has an excellent way for calming them down and showing them love. Our calico, Carly, is very shy, but she approaches Amber from the first meeting. We highly recommend her and have used her services many times. Thank you again Amber!!
Rylee has been wonderful with our dog, Kona, while we've been out of town. She stops by several times a day, makes sure she has everything she needs, and even takes time to play with her. It's given us so much peace of mind knowing our baby is in such caring and reliable hands. We would absolutely recommend Rylee to anyone looking for a trustworthy Rover sitter!
Annabella was amazing! She went above and beyond to care for our cat Loki while we were on vacation. The night we left, our fire alarms became defective and kept setting off until our maintenance team could come fix them the next day. Annabella stayed extra long during her visit to reassure Loki and comfort him. Our litter robot also had a connection issue, and she was able to reset it & set up an emergency litter box I had shipped to the home. The fire alarm situation caused me a lot of anxiety at the beginning of the trip, but the daily updates and photos from Annabella made me feel so much better and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the rest of our trip, knowing our boy was in good hands! We would definitely rebook with her on future trips. :)
Dina was an excellent pet sitter for our dog Molly during our week-long trip. We didn’t know Molly could be quite naughty and destructive when nervous or home alone, but Dina handled it beautifully — she provided the extra love and attention Molly needed and helped manage those behaviors while following all of our care instructions. Dina was always on time for her drop-ins and communicated clearly, which gave us complete peace of mind. She went above and beyond by bringing in our trash bins from the street after pickup. We highly recommend Dina to any pet owner looking for a reliable, caring sitter. She truly helped us relax and enjoy our time away knowing Molly was in good hands. Thank you, Dina!
I am always so happy when Krysten takes care of my cat Wolfy. I always know he is in loving and caring hands. She not only takes care of him, but also brings in my mail and any other needs Wolfy or I may have. My home looks so clean and untouched when I come home, and Wolfy is calm and content. It gives me a sense of calm during my times away. I highly recommend Krysten when searching for a pet sitter. A+++++++++++++++++++
Laura is awesome! She is super communicative, kind and so attentive to our fur babies and their needs. Loved the photos she sent, too. Laura was flexible and very understanding throughout our booking. When we were unreachable during our trip, she coordinated with our neighbors as needed. Highly recommend and so grateful for her services!
I had a great experience with Caprial. One of my two cats is usually very easily scared and tends to hide around new people, but surprisingly showed no signs of fear around her at all. Both cats seemed comfortable and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Waddell stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 with handling special pet needs in Waddell. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
