“Toby communicated with me throughout the visit, with this being her first time without me being home. Everything went well. It appeared Kahlo had fun and got some exercise, while I attended a long class. Rover worked very well and Toby was great to work with. ❤️”
“This was our first time using Rover. Even though Evie had a family emergency, she still went over and took care of our cat. We appreciate her dedication! We will use her again when we travel.”
About: Hi! I’m Alana, an animal lover of all shapes and sizes. Growing up, my family had a pitbull lab mix and a chow/akita mix. Now I share my home with 3 German Shepherds, 1 Shar pei/bulldog mix, and 1 Jack Russel mix. Not to mention the 6 cats I have. So I know first hand what a pet needs to live life to the fullest! Through my own personal experience with my German Shepherds, I have dealt with and managed leash reactivity and dog to dog reactivity. I am experienced in a number of dog behaviors ranging from fearful, anxious dogs to super outgoing, active dogs. I have worked in the doggy daycare and boarding career for 3 years. It has given me lots of experience with dogs from the young active dogs to the seniors who just want love! I have a lot of experience with administrating medications, nail clipping, bathing, a basic training, and of course walks. As a pack leader, I have supervised groups of 5 to 50+ ensuring the safety of everyone and proper socialization. With working in this career, I have gone through Pack Pro training courses and learned all kinds of new things to help ensure I do my best to keep every dog safe and happy! I have worked with and am comfortable with dogs 2 lbs to 120+ lbs. I currently work full time at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I am happy to be as flexible as possible for what my schedule allows. Sometimes I work mornings and sometimes I work late afternoons til mid evenings. I am open to accommodating anything your pet may need. I take pride in making sure every owner and dog is happy! As an owner I know how dogs aren’t just a dog but they are part of the family. I will provide daily pictures and updates to make sure owners are confident their dog is being well taken care of. Any animal in my care, I treat as if they were my own. I look forward to taking care of your pets! I currently have a full time job at a doggy daycare and boarding facility but am willing to open my free time to spend with your lovely pets. I am looking most for weekends but am open to week days as long as it fits around my schedule. I do not have a set schedule, it is different every week. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have 5 dogs and 6 cats. I live on 1 acre so plenty of room to run!
About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a kid. I have tended to a total of six beloved family dogs from around age 7 to 19 when I moved. Some of my regular care for them included providing fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, going outside, playing, and brushing their coats. I have also administered some medication such as vet prescribed pills, sprays, or ear drops when needed. I helped to train them on basic commands and leash training. I am used to recognizing dog body language, following care instructions tailored to each pet, and sticking to a schedule. Since I am currently in-between jobs, my schedule is very flexible. I am most often available to provide pet care anytime on any day! I can also work for extended periods of time. Typically, my care for pets includes providing fresh food and water, playing, pets, and regular potty breaks. However, different pets have different needs and I am able to provide the care that suits your unique pet!
About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: I had pets my whole life growing up (cats and dogs at the same time), currently haven’t a cat, and watch my families pets when they are out of town. I am reliable and can handle any situation that comes up. I work full time but I am able to work from home half the week so this allows me to be flexible with my pet sitting. I have a huge fenced in back yard, I treat every animal like my own as well. Additionally, I always respect other people’s homes.
About: Hi!! My name is Meira and I absolutely love animals with my whole heart. I currently own 1 dog and 1 cat. I have grown up around all animals and worked at a dog boarding facility. Either staying over night, working with them, or stopping by to feed them and give them potty breaks! I’ve worked with all types of dogs. Big, small, puppy, senior, and special needs. I am happy to help take special care for your pet. I understand bringing a stranger around your pet can seem scary, but I will do anything in my nature to provide all the love and safety for you and your furr baby! I am currently in college at Bowling Green State University! My schedule is very free almost everyday of the week, besides the few hours I have class. I’m currently living on campus in a house with a lot of girls, but I would be willing to walk your dog wherever you prefer or if you are needing a few hours of help I can bring your pet back with me!
“5/5 Stars — 10/10 Highly Recommended! I cannot recommend Ava enough! She saved the day by stepping in on just two days' notice to take care of my cat for a full week straight. She did two 30min-1hr long drop-in visits every single day and was absolutely wonderful. She is super nice, incredibly reliable, and kept me updated the entire time with excellent communication. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands. I will absolutely be booking her again!”

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
