“We've used Kristen twice in a matter of a few weeks and she has been amazing. Spends great time with your pet and sends great updates every visit. If you're looking for a great care giver and sitter, book Kristen!”
“Elizabeth was an amazing petsitter and took very good care of our animals while we were away. She was very communicative and friendly. I would definitely recommend booking with her.”
“Tatiana is very dependable she sent daily pics of our pets and asked questions for clarification when needed. She is an awesome communicator and I would definitely use her again :).”
“My cat Monty is a jumpy sort but he warmed up to Mikayla right away. We were gone for a longer period than usual and Monty did well with Mikayla. He played and ate which he often boycotts in my absence as he is very attached to me and our daily routine. I am grateful Mikayla is such a cat whisperer and recommend her for anyone with a sensitive cat. Thank you Mikayla.”
“Makayla was amazing ! She had great communication and made it easy for me to trust her with my cat! She sent me updates every time she went over as well as photos of him! 10/10 recommend !”
“Alicia was able to take care of our dogs with short notice and we were appreciative of that. She was communicative, and very friendly with the pups even not having been able to meet them prior to caring for them.”
“Jael was fabulous!! She sent me pics of my babies when she visited with them. My dog never goes in the house, but the first two nights he was nervous and did. Jael cleaned and was so kind. My furries love her. She went over and beyond loving on my pets. I highly recommend her! She is very conscientious and trustworthy.”
About: I have always grown up with multiple dogs in my home, and was always given the responsibility of primary care to them! I will always able to go above and beyond for your dog!! They are my top priority! I’m a full time student, however my school schedule is extremely flexible! I am also in a sorority which means I will have weekly meetings and such! I am able to commute very easily to your home! I am able to provide crating, play and snuggle time, meals, basic grooming needs, and can even medicine and correct dosing!
About: I’ve been around dogs ever since I was 5 years old. When my family got our first puppy, I helped train her general skills like sit, stay, heel, etc. Growing up it was also a responsibility of mine to walk, feed, bathe, and play with her. Summer 2022 I was a vet tech at a humane society in my hometown, and delivered medical care to the dogs and cats there. May 2024 I helped my friend deliver 10 beautiful German Shepherd puppies! I love dogs of all kinds and can promise the best care for yours! I am a college student at Texas A&M. While I do have class every morning, I have time to go feed and hang out with a pet in the morning, check in and play midday, and again feed and hang out with them in the evening. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure that when taking them outside, they are in a fenced in area. If there is no fenced in area, I will have the pet on a leash. Every time I go check on the pet, the pet has fresh water and is fed when instructed. I also make sure to spend time with the pet so it doesn’t feel lonely, whether that is playing with a toy, going on a walk, or just giving the pet some ear scratches! I know that pets can miss their owners so I want to make them as comfortable and happy as possible.
About: I have 6 dogs, 2 cats, and a snake in my family home. I have been around animals my entire life and have pet sat for my family for as long as I can remember. I currently job shadow at a veterinary clinic in my area and have experience taking care of pets of all ages and conditions there. I would absolutely love to help you and your pet with anything and everything you need! I work part time so I can spend all of my afternoons and weekends with your pets! Apart from work I am in school so my schedule can slightly vary based on class times and exams. I am experienced with special diets, mobile needs, and space accommodations. I will do whatever I am instructed with enthusiasm and excitement because I love animals and helping people as best I can!
“Kathryne took excellent care of our 2 dogs and at last-minute notice! She was very responsive to messages and flexible when there was a slight schedule change. Would not hesitate to book again!”
“It was so wonderful to have Lailah looking after my cats. She gave me updates every day and they warmed up to her really quickly! I felt safe leaving my cats with her, and everyone was safe and happy when I came home.”
About: I have loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience caring for not only dogs and cats, but also sheep and horses. I’ve been responsible for animals since I was young and have developed a strong passion for providing them with loving, attentive care. I am experienced with pets of all ages, including senior animals, and I will always ensure your pets are safe, comfortable, and treated like family while they’re in my care. Pet care would be part of my everyday schedule. I would plan my day around feeding times, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and making sure each pet gets attention and comfort. I’m used to being responsible and checking in on animals multiple times throughout the day, so I can easily adjust my routine to meet their needs. In my own home or a client’s home, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I make sure they are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime based on their energy level and personality. I also keep their space clean by picking up after them, cleaning litter boxes or accidents right away, and making sure their environment stays safe and calm.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wellborn
Our dog Kobe had the time of his life with Gino. Gino went above and beyond the basic instructions we had asked of him, taking Kobe on walks in new trails around town and to local dog parks to make new friends, always making sure to check in with us before and keeping us updated throughout. Seeing photos of our dog being loved and taken care of so well allowed us to enjoy our travels worry free. We will certainly be asking Gino to be Kobe's sitter again in the future!
Julie is so sweet and caring. I have a senior dog and I’m very anxious about him since he’s dealing with sundowning. Julie took the time to visit him the day before her stay to understand his quirks and how to handle him if he starts to get anxious during her stay. Mind you, she already met us but since our first visit, he started to show severe signs of dementia. This made me feel so much relief knowing she’s attentive and understanding. I felt so much better knowing he was in good hands 😊

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.
