“Joel was great to accommodate a last minute drop in. He took great care of Kai and Xena, sent photos, and followed all instructions. We’ll definitely book with him again.”
About: From the first day I was born, I was surrounded by cocker spaniel puppies of my mother's. I was raised to care of different types of animals from dogs, cats, fish, turtle, bunnies, and mice! I have a great fondness and love for animals, especially dogs. We lost our 9 year old Maltese last August and would like to take care and provide some love for other dogs. I've house-sit/dog-sit my neighbor's black lab since 2008, and occasionally dog sit my friend's Australian Shepherd-Corgi mix puppy. I've also house-sit/dog-sit my coworkers black German Shepard several nights last year. I'm sometimes described as a dog whisperer, as dogs have had a natural fondness and friendliness with me. I have a night job as assistant manager/server in DT Bellevue, but morning and afternoon are wide open to take care of your furry companion.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for many breeds of dogs and cats. I’ve owned and cared for Yorkies, pit bulls, boxers, husky/German shepherd mixes, and American bulldogs, along with multiple cats. I’m experienced with daily care, walks, feeding schedules, bathing, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I have flexible availability and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. I’m reliable with schedules and make sure pets get consistent care, playtime, and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and instructions provided by owners. I’m experienced handling different temperaments and making sure pets feel secure in both my home and theirs. I’m calm, attentive, and always focused on creating a safe, low-stress environment.
“Caroline was amazing! She sent daily photos and updates while I was away, which kept me totally at ease. I came home to find all my fur babies healthy, happy, and well cared for. Her communication was excellent from start to finish. I’ll definitely book with Caroline again. highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs. And I want to be able to help other people who are looking for help with dog sitting I work part- time. And with the extra time on my hands I want to be able to work with more cats and dogs. I do have experience working with a variety of animals, which I am super blessed to be able to do so. Unfortunately, I do not have Military or Base access. I care for pets as if they are my kids and I’m willing to do anything for them to have a good time. For a client’s house I will always respect it and keep things how they are when I got there
About: As well as having my own pets throughout my childhood and adult life, I have worked in an animal rehoming centre for 3 years where I cared for dogs and cats on a daily basis. I also worked for a dog walking business and volunteer at the local dog shelter! I am a British Royal Air Force veteran with work experience as an Explosive Detection K-9 Handler. My husband is active duty and we will be here in Honolulu for the next 3 years! I have lots of spare time to take care of your fur babies and cater to their needs! I live in a 2 story house with a yard that is securely fenced. I have a 3 year old catahoula leopard mix named Piper who is great with other dogs. All breeds of dogs are welcome in my home and will receive plenty of love and care!
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and they are truly my passion. I care for their health and needs, possibly more than my own, and I will put in the same care and care into your fur babies! Connecting with each animal and earning their trust is my protocol first and foremost. I have a lot of experience caring for a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and can provide personalized care while carefully following any instructions given. If you book with me I promise to earn you and your precious fur baby's trust! My schedule is very flexible as I work part-time remotely at the moment and I am also available on the weekends for any Rover bookings. At this time I do not offer pet sitting in my home but when in my client's home, my priority is providing a calm and safe space for the pets. I will follow all instructions given as well as any specific care instructions for those with special needs. My goal is to mimic the pet's normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I focus on building trust by respecting each pet’s comfort level and offering gentle, positive interactions while staying attentive to their needs. I also take safety seriously by securing doors and gates and closely supervising outdoor activities. My goal is to ensure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for just as they would at home with you!
“Much appreciated. She took the time to walk my doggies and give them the attention they needed. She is reliable and I was able to book with her on a short notice. Would book again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 2008, with up to seven in my home at a time. I’m a big softy for dogs but love pets of all kind. I currently have one loving, kind, and gentle one year old pup Kaipo who would love to have a buddy! I’m currently employed full time but transitioning out of the military which leaves me with plenty of time for your furry friends! I typically work from 9-2 pm and the rest of the day is dedicated to your loved ones! I have access to a private dog park for your fur babies to meet new friends and have some fun! My dog Kaipo is also ready and willing to make some friends of his own!
“Lily is great with my girls! Great communication, and she even did a mini photo shoot with them for Christmas which was so sweet. You can tell she really cares about the pets she watches. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Grace did an amazing job taking care of my three pets while I was gone. She kept me up to date on everything, sent lots of pictures, and made sure everything was taken care of. I will definitely be booking in the future.”
About: I’ve always had multiple dogs growing up and once I got out of grad school, I decided to get a dog to call my own. But I tell everyone that she found me, not the other way around :) From walks, to dog parks, to hikes, and many more, I enjoy spending time with dogs and seeing them happily play with their friends (both new and old). I have experience caring for dogs who are sick or who may have some anxiety. With that, I’m big on taking photos of pets, so you’ll constantly receive updates from me. I work from home full time and am able to take fur friends out on walks throughout the day. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and there’s always a new dog on the block to make friends with. I recently lost my fur baby of 11 years. I work from home full time so I’m able to care for your pup depending on their needs and how often they need to walk/be outdoors. I still have three beds to choose from so your pup will also be able to choose from that selection.
About: Pet lover and Corgi mom who understands how important routine, attention, and love are. I’m home all day and treat every pet like my own. I currently work from home, which allows me to be flexible and fully available for pet care, including regular walks, potty breaks, and personalized attention. I care for pets in my home by providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I live in a house with a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor time, plus plenty of nearby walking paths and sidewalks for long walks and exercise. I follow each pet’s routine closely and make sure they get lots of attention and care.
About: I have grown up with dogs and had them in and out of my life. I am pretty experienced with young puppies and adult dogs. Although I am not experienced with senior care or giving medication. I am currently a part time college student that will be taking classes online. I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I will do my best to work with so that it works out for everyone. I cannot board any animals in my home however I would be happy to spend the night with your furry family members in your home. I take pet safety very serious and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own pet. I’ll also follow any instructions, rules and dietary needs that you have for your pet. Further more I won’t leave your pet unsupervised unless in a safe or secure place and with your knowledge and permission.
About: I have been a dedicated pet owner for several years and have hands-on experience caring for my own pets every day. My responsibilities include feeding, walking, exercising, grooming, cleaning up after them, and making sure they receive plenty of love and attention. I understand every pet has unique needs and will care for yours with the same patience, attention, and compassion that I give my own. The services I will be able to provide include any pet sitting except boarding. I have open availability. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, which means I have open availability and the flexibility to provide your pets with the attention and care they deserve. I currently have 2 cats in my home. Due to space and comfortability of all furry friends involved, I will only be offering house/pet-sitting and walking.
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life. My family dog, Buddy, is 12 years old, and we’ve had him since I was in 7th grade. Even after moving out, I still help care for him by taking him on his midday walks and spending time with him whenever I can. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I also understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet isn’t always easy. If I were hiring someone to care for Buddy, I’d want someone who is dependable, respectful, and keeps me updated every step of the way—and that’s exactly the kind of sitter I strive to be. I’m very communicative, flexible, and reliable. I’ll always follow your instructions, respect your home, and send plenty of updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and having a great time. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. Since I’m home most days, I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. While I’m not able to board pets in my own home, I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home where they’re most relaxed. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of playtime, walks, and lots of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waimalu
I’m so thankful for Nessa coming by to check on our two cats while we were away! She took the time to track down our very shy cat in his favorite hiding spots and sent pictures of him and his much more outgoing sister. She even came in an extra time to troubleshoot our litter genie when we got an error message on it
Karina is amazing! She is so good with our three pups! Karina took extensive notes during our meet and greet regarding each of our dogs and their individual personalities. We have one dog that is very selective with new people and she loved Karina immediately! All our dogs absolutely love her drop in visits, and we trust her to be in our home and care for our pups.
We were so lucky in having Chelsea watch Star for the last several months. I trust that Star will be in good hands! When we come back from our trips, our house was neat and tidy. She is also great at letting us know about updates and how Star is doing! We enthusiastically recommend her to furry parents out there.
Sean is amazing pet sitter. He took wonderful care of my cat! Always sending really cute pictures of her. If you want someone who can make you feel secure about your pets, give informative updates on your pets, and send you pictures of your cat that will make you smile, then he's the man!
Avery is fantastic. She took great care of my three very energetic labs while we were away for 2 weeks. She cleaned up behind them both outside and inside the house and was very patient with our male dog pooping and peeing inside despite knowing better. She gave them lots of play time as well. Avery let me know my dog’s med was running out so I could order a refill; she even went out of her way to pickup the medication from the vet so she wouldn’t miss a dose. I had no worries while away; Avery def gives you peace of mind if you need to leave your dogs! She took lots of pictures and left informative and entertaining notes. Will definitely book again.
Tamah went above and beyond for our cats. One of our pets was put on emergency antibiotics days before our trip was scheduled. Tamah did an amazing job making sure she was given her medicine daily and sent us lots of updates. I would absolutely have her back! 10/10!
Jessica was on time, communicative, and super kind! The pictures gave me peace of mind while I was at work when I was super super anxious about leaving my pup while he’s been sick. I knew he was well taken care of and am so grateful for the care she gave! Would definitely book again!
Taylor was so amazing with our boys! They welcomed her from the get-go, including our shy boy. I didn't have to worry at all. She provided pics for updates, which was a plus! She went above and beyond for what I expected. I would have her pet-sit in a heartbeat again. 🤗 thank you so much, Taylor. 😄
Sarah is very prompt and reliable and really eased my worries when I was out of town for two weeks. Consistent and very good to my cats and making sure things are good in my house as far as picking up mail for me and keeping the cat areas clean. Thank you again and will def request again!
Yumna is great. We always feel at ease while we are away knowing she is checking in on our boys. She provides thorough details on how they are doing and lots of pictures. Yumna also ensures that our place isn’t in disarray after we come back since our cats tend to cause chaos in the house while we are gone.

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.
