“Avaiyah did a great job with our spunky and overly friendly dog when we went on a very last minute trip to see family. We had never done anything like Rover before and have only ever used the same boarder, so we were hesitant to try it out, but she made it so easy and we will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for over 15 years now with experience with any age or size of dog. I am very flexible with your or your pets needs. I offer all services available. I am home full time so I am able to be with your dog and provide potty and play breaks several times during the day. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your dog company! I am home full time so your dog will never be alone.
“Angelina was very prompt with her messaging. She was reliable as she showed up at the appropriate time and followed my pets care instructions exactly. I came home to find my furry friend properly cared for. I would use her again!”
About: I have had a dog in my life for the last 13 years, I work from home so able to spend a lot of time with your pup😊 Down to 1 dog so would love more doggy time 🥰 Work 6-230 from home so available to spend time with your dog and let out on breaks and done early to get out for walks. I live in a townhouse so don’t have a fenced yard but do have a cable to tie out back. Also have a bigger kennel if that is needed.
About: the personalized, one-on-one attention I provide. I care for one household at a time, allowing me to focus on your dog’s individual needs, routines, and comfort. I prioritize keeping your dog’s schedule as consistent as possible while you’re away, with regular updates, photos, and extra love to help you feel at ease knowing your pup is in caring hands. I offer personalized care that goes beyond the basics, including overnight stays, walks, drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, medication, playtime, and help maintaining your dog’s normal routine. I can also incorporate the little things that make your dog’s stay special, like car rides, outdoor adventures, and extra one-on-one time. I work with each owner to create care that fits their dog’s needs instead of offering a one-size-fits-all service. Pet care is something I prioritize in my daily routine, and I plan my schedule around providing attentive, personalized care for each dog I look after. I make sure every pup receives consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I limit my care to one household at a time so I can focus on each dog’s individual needs and provide a safe, comfortable, and loving experience while their owners are away. I’m a nursing student and have been a CNA since 2021. Caring for others has always been a big part of my life, and I bring that same patience, responsibility, and attention to detail to caring for pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I provide personalized care in my client’s home to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any additional care their pet needs. I also provide companionship, plenty of affection, and regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. I prioritize safety, consistency, and each pet’s individual needs, caring for one household at a time to ensure every dog receives my full attention.
About: I have owned dogs for over 50 yrs and love working w them and creating a safe space for them to explore. Welcome to my home! I currently work part time as a nurse and will have lots of time to spend supervising your furbabies in my yard. I will treat them as if they are my own and keep them safe. I have a large fenced in yard and doggy door to lead into it. I have a little friendly dog that loves other dogs and be happy to play. I have plenty of time to supervise your pups and exercise them in a fenced in space.
“Tara was great! I would rather not board the cats and keep them in their home and this was a great alternative and cheaper than boarding and less stressful for the cats. She asked questions to make sure she understood the cats needs and had great communication. We already have her booked for drop ins again. Thanks again Tara ❤️ We highly recommend!”

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.
