“Dorothy: Simply the best!!! Who else would WaLK through hurricane ravaged streets and downed trees and power lines to ensure my pups were safe and out of harms way??! Only Dorothy!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting & cat sitting since I was 17 and have loved it since! I have 1 senior dog, and 2 cats that I couldn’t live without! I’ve been pet-sitting since high school, but have been using it as a side hobby since I’m in college studying social work! I’ve dog sat for puppies-senior dogs, and cats of all ages,I am able to administer medications, and love outside walks/play! I am in school full time, but have a reliable schedule & transportation. Monday/Wednesday/Fridays I am available anytime after 1 PM. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available between 8 AM-11 AM and anytime after 3 PM. I have a fenced backyard but I know many great walking places in the city if applicable. I love playing and enrichment time for all animals.
“Valerie is awesome, she’s very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs. Highly recommend her. She sent us pictures and even went so far as to observe their bowl movements to see how their health was while we were gone. I will be using her in the future whenever we travel!”
“Nina was very kind and communicative about Chief when we needed someone to let him out a few times when we were out of town for the day. We would for sure book with her again:)”
“Amanda was wonderful! I had to be out of town for a few weeks for school and she came by to take care of my cat so diligently on days when my family was unable to. She was very thorough, making sure the litter box was always clean, his food dispenser was full and functional, etc. She also just loved on my cat so well, spending time letting him get to know her and play with treats. He’s very shy, so it says a lot that by her third visit, he was running to meet her at the door! Overall, excellent experience and I would encourage anyone looking for a good sitter to reach out to her. I definitely will whenever I need to in the future!”
“Nicole was a pleasure to meet. You can tell right away that she’s an animal person! She showed up as scheduled and hung out with my guys. I’ll definitely use her again!”
“Elana is very professional and caring. We were very fortunate to have booked her last minute before a holiday weekend. She was promt with all her visits, sent us loads of pictures of her snuggling and playing with our babies each time, and we had no concerns they were in good hands. Elana kept great communication as well. We won't hesitate to ask her to sit for us again. Highly recommend!!”
“My Layla girl had a very stressful day; I was out of town and unable to get to her to cuddle her to bed and Nicole was great with her!! Took her on a walk, tucked her in, and spent the full 30 min taking care of my girl. Also very friendly and communicative!”
“Hannah was absolutely amazing. I booked her last minute the next day && she was readily available! She very quick to respond when I had any questions! Blanca loved her!”
About: I love caring for my friends' pets when they're away for the weekend! I'm equally a dog and cat person and have experience looking after both. I'd love to give your pets the same care and attention while you're away! I have a really flexible schedule on the weekends, so I'm happy to work around your plans! I also enjoy getting some movement in the morning, so if your pup loves an early adventure, I'm more than happy to take them along. I can easily crate your animal if needed. I do not have a backyard area or balcony. Animals are free to roam around wherever they please.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My mom and I started doing TNR and taking care of a colony of cats when I was around 8 years old, while also having cats and dogs of our own! I currently have my own cats and dogs who are my entire world. I volunteer regularly at the SPCA in Aiken, SC and have a few months of experience from working at a dog and cat boarding facility. I have a lot of experience with cats that have different medical conditions such as FIV. My own cats have had surgeries and needed to be medicated so I have experience in giving pills and liquid medicine. I’m not currently working which means I have a very flexible schedule. I am more than happy to discuss a routine that works best for you! I can care for your pets by dropping by and spending an extended amount of time with them to ensure they are getting any emotion connection they may need. In addition, I will take care of the basic necessities such as cleaning and feeding. I am more than happy to send updates throughout the day/time period to ensure you know how they are doing!
“Zaylie was absolutely amazing with Philly! From the very first walk, it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. She was reliable, communicative, and always kept me updated with photos and notes, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Philly came back happy, exercised, and clearly well taken care of every time. You can tell Zaylie takes pride in what she does and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
About: I adore all animals, but I especially love dogs! I have a 6-year old mini chipin back at home! My next door neighbors are professional trainers and boarders so I’ve had some good experiences. I’m a full time student at AU. I’m done every day by 2 p.m. I’m looking to decompress and take a brain break all while making furry friends happy with lots of love and walks! I live on campus, so services will always be at your home! I aim to maintain the routines set in place and keep your fur babies comfortable and happy!
“Mary was absolutely amazing! She made sure to make our dog feel so comfortable and loved. She always made sure to do everything we requested so that nothing in our dog’s routine would be different. Will be rebooking in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s cats and friends’ pups for years. I always offer plenty of snuggles, diligently take care of basic needs, and love to partake in house hangs or walks around the neighborhood! I’m currently in between finishing graduate school and my career in the medical field. I have much free time to care for and love on your fur babies! I greatly prioritize the safety of all precious animals! I always check for closed fences and safe streets before bringing a pup out to walk or play. I am highly aware of any open doors that could pose a risk to indoor kitties. Safety first!
“This was my first time using Rover and Sally was just amazing! She came for a meet and greet before we left for vacation, she was very kind, friendly, and trustworthy! My dogs all looked very happy in all the photos she sent and she kept an eye on my chickens, ducks, and ferret too! I’ll definitely be using her for any future visits!”
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also always had dogs growing up. I’ve worked with dogs for years, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services in dogs’ own homes, giving them the comfort of staying in their familiar environment while their owners are away. In addition, I have extensive dog-walking experience and understand the importance of keeping every walk safe, enjoyable, and suited to each dog’s individual pace and personality. What sets me apart is my combination of professional daycare experience, in-home pet sitting, and dog walking. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each dog in my care. I treat every pup like my own and strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care is something I’m doing part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My significant other travels for work, and I’m fortunate enough to be able to travel with him, so I’m able to adjust my availability depending on our travel schedule. I’m looking forward to using my flexible schedule to provide reliable, loving care for dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. 🐾 I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow their normal feeding, walking, and medication routines, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect their home and leave everything clean and just as I found it.
“Monica was such a blessing to me to take care of my Maddi during my long work hours. She provided lots of pictures and videos during her visits and always communicated clearly to me. Monica took good care of Maddi and gave her lots of love!🩷”
“I can't say enough nice things about Hannah, she is absolutely amazing! She watched my two elderly cats for two weeks, and did a fantastic job. I absolutely hate leaving them and typically worry the whole time I'm away, but after the meet and greet I knew they would be well cared for and safe. They both liked her immediately which is extremely rare for one of them. That same cat doesn't do well with being left, she's always extremely clingy and lethargic when we return home. This was the very first time, (and she's 13 years old) she seemed happy and unconcerned by our absence! It really showed how comfortable and secure she felt. Hannah is kind, professional, and quick to respond. I'd hire her again in a second!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waverly
It was a PLEASURE to have Nicole drop in on our baby, Maverick while we were out of town. Our usual sitter was unavailable for our last minute trip and I scrambled trying to find someone right before having to leave. Nicole was available to meet right away and she took the best care of him. I could tell from the moment he met her that he would love her. All of his check in pics had a huge smile on his little face lol We’ll definitely be booking with Nicole again in the future!
Jasmin agreed to watch our cats for two weeks while we went on vacation. I was quite nervous as it was our first time using rover and we have some finicky cats. I was very worried initially as i have a senior cat with some health issues and my other is very shy and quick to refuse food when stressed. She was very confident when we met her and when we introduced her to the cats both of them immediately took to her. This was a first for us as again my one cat has never been so friendly upon meeting someone for the first time but I genuinely believe it was because she has a fantastic personality and animal handling skills. For two weeks she was prompt and clear with her communication and took great photos that made me feel comfortable about my cats' condition. Of course, there were also funny moments she was able to capture which really put me at ease. She was able to identify their patterns of behavior and made notes on it. I appreciate her thoughtfulness on refilling their litter and water fountain. The most memorable thing she did for us was when we were delayed an extra day coming back for our vacation she was completely understanding and agreed to watch the cats on such extremely short notice. If I ever have to get a pet sitter again I know that she will be my first choice going forward. Thank you Jasmin!!

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 Waverly 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.

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.
