About: I love going on walks and hikes with dogs. My dog is a senior dog now at 12 years old and has hip issues. She doesn’t get to do that anymore. I know how much dogs love to walk. I recently retired a few months ago, so my schedule is pretty flexible to meet the needs of the clients. I have to be busy. I have a fenced in yard myself but I go out with my own dog. I will go out with your dog as well to ensure safety.
“Highly recommend she truly loved on our boy while we were gone definitely will be booking again when going out of town ! Also sent extra pictures because my son liked looking at them!”
“Rachel was amazing with our babies. She played with them and checked to make sure I gave them breakfast. She took awesome pictures and treated our babies exactly how we expect people to treat them. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Second time booking with Kyla. Our cats are noticeably more relaxed and happy when we come home than when we used to go on trips and a family member would stop in to feed them really quickly. Kyla takes great care of them all and really spends time with them.”
“Danielle did amazing! She was super sweet and asked lots of questions at the meet and greet with pups prior to the booking. She took great care of our dogs and posted pictures every time she visited them. Would highly recommend!”
“Carley was amazing taking care of our pups! She was prompt and kept us updated on everything and we really appreciate her. We’d recommend Carley to everyone. Will definitely be using her services again!!!”
About: It is important to me to build strong trust with clients who need a caring and reliable petsitter. As a pet owner myself I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet alone with someone, and I aim to prove that it is ok if you find the right person! My schedule is very flexible currently so I can definitely work with you to find time to care for your pet! If I am given enough headsup in advance I can do early mornings to evenings depending on the task required. I can do majority of tasks required for caring for pets such as feeding, taking out to use the bathroom, providing medications, or just providing company!
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for 50 years. I’ve taken care of up to seven dogs at once. I’ve had big and small dogs. All my dogs are adopted and some have had special needs. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m currently available to watch or board all week. I love taking dogs for walks. I have a fenced yard. Currently I don’t have any dogs but occasionally I watch my daughters dog. Even though I don’t have dogs I make sure all gates are closed and secured.
About: I have years of volunteer experience at veterinary clinics caring for dogs and cats! I love all animals and have 3 pets of my own! I love spending time outdoors and ages experience with all ages of pets! I am available SUN-SAT for daily walks! I can absolutely make arrangements to do check ins during the day/evenings while you are away on vacation any day of the week! We love to go on daily walks or trip to the dog park! I am only able to allow cats & dogs under 15lbs into my home! They must be kid & other pet friendly! I have an under 5lb morkiepoo and 2 cats!
About: I have cared for pets since I was double digits. I have had hamsters, fish, cats, and dogs. Dogs are my favorite, though. It doesn't matter what breed; they are all unique in their own way and beautiful as well. I have personally owned a Rotti (Rocco), Husky mix (Mercedes), English Bulldog (Diesel), Frenchies (Kingston & Khloe), and now a pocket bully (Oakley) and English Bulldog (Lola). Since our kids are grown, these are our fur babies. We always say that this is their home, and they just let us live with them. I am able and comfortable with injuries, wounds, bathing, and cutting nails if needed. We are currently going through the puppy stage with Lola, so we have a lot of patience as well. We would love for you to choose us to stay with because we love meeting new friends, no matter their age or breed. I work from home 3 days a week, so I am here most of the time to care for pets. Dogs are like kids; once you have more of them, they are easier to care for because they move in a pack for the most part. I have two extremely friendly and loving dogs here. We have a fenced-in yard in the back. We live in a quiet subdivision out in the country with sidewalks and other friendly dogs. Our home is dog-proofed in the sense that we have a dog gate, multiple dog beds throughout the house downstairs, and two bins of dog toys. We also keep plenty of treats for training and snacks.
About: I grew up with 2 cats and 2 dogs. I have since adopted 3 cats and 2 dogs of my own! Providing love and care for fur babies is my top priority! I work full time as a teacher, but am available for afternoon and evening walks and visits during the week. On weekend I have open availability! I have a fenced yard for my 2 dogs to run and play safely. My cats lives a lavish life with their 4 tiered cat tree. Our dogs and cats have a special diet of the best natural ingredients for their individual health needs.
About: I have had the amazing opportunity to run and operate an animal rescue for 5 straight years. During which time we tended to each and every need including medical needs. I am home all day long. I can focus on playing with your animal for hours, making sure your animal always has eyes on them for their safety. During an animals stay or visiting the clients home. I like to make sure that the animal is well cared for by strict eating schedules as well as bathroom breaks. Let’s not forget about play time.
About: Hi! My name is Caitlyn. I am a lifelong animal lover and have had pets my whole life. I am a vet tech, so I have plenty experience with animals with medical or special needs. I am comfortable giving meds in whatever way works for your pet, from pill pockets to syringes to injections to pilling. I currently work at a vet so I can get your babies immediate help if needed. I work at a vet Monday-Thursday, so I am available all day Friday-Sunday to care for your critters. I would love to take some furry friends for a walk or sit on the couch with them while their family is on a trip. I will respect your pets space first and foremost. Even if I am staying overnight and your pet is scared to be near a stranger, I will not force them. If they’re more comfortable hiding in the closet, that if more than okay, as long as everyone is safe and healthy. If your pet is a snugglebug and wants to touch me 24/7, that’s great too! It’s all about making your pet feel comfortable while you are gone. I am also experienced in different ways to administer medication. If I have any issues, I will immediately let you know.
About: I’m Hannah, a pediatric oncology nurse who’s passionate about caring for others(both people and animals!) I’ve always loved dogs and have many years of experience owning and caring for them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work as a nurse three days a week, which gives me several days of flexibility for drop-in visits and walks. On my days off, I have a very open schedule and can be available throughout the day! I know first hand how hard it can be trying to find trustworthy people to care for your babies while you’re away! I tell my clients all the time that I commend them for trusting a complete stranger to take care of their sweet fur babies. It really takes a leap of faith and a lot of searching to find the right fit, but I’d be honored to be that trustworthy person for you!

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.
