“Tracey has a wealth of experience that was invaluable to us as we are still navigating integrating a new dog into our family. She was very reassuring about her ability to handle their interactions which allowed us to relax while we were gone. Her communication and pictures were great and showed how well things went during the visit. Tracey is a great choice for your pets!!!”
“Hanna did an excellent job stopping by my house each day to care for my two cats while I was away on a trip. She fed them, cleaned and filled their water bowls, cleaned the litter boxes, disposed of the litter in the garbage can outside, and paid special attention to them each day ❤️. It was awesome that she sent me photos and videos of her petting and playing with them! And it let me know that they were in good hands while I was away. I can’t express my gratitude enough. Thank you, Hanna!”
About: I've been a pet owner for 30 plus years, to include cats and dogs. I have also done pet sitting many times for families in and around Camp Hill, PA. I am currently a proud momma of three amazing furry friends: a 14 year old cat, a 9 year old catahoula leopard doggies, and a very energetic 2 1/2 year old mini golden doodle. All of these animals are rescues. I am currently working a job that ends at 3:30 each week day, and am very flexible with my availability of time over the weekends. I am up very early each morning to let my two dogs out in our backyard, which is fenced in. I also administer medication to our cat at that time, along with feeding all of my pets. All of our pets have free range of our house, but our youngest dog can be crated at times when necessary. I also love taking both of our dogs for walks every night.
“Sally is reliable, communicative and very sweet. If there's ever an issue, she's quick to reach out. She provides great care and updates. We feel comfortable leaving our cat and house in her care. Thanks Sally!!”
“Recent travel and an old cat at home required added attention that Elizabeth was able to provide. The reassurance from her correspondence allowed me to feel less guilty knowing the cat was well cared for.”
“Stevy did a great job with my pup. He enjoyed her company while I was away, and it was great to see him happy in the pictures that she sent. I highly recommend booking with Stevy.”
“Abigail was AMAZING!!! I was so worried to leaving my kitties to go to family thanksgiving but I felt so much better after she visited for the first time. After a few visits, she’s basically my kitties new bestie! I would totally love for her to cat sit next time we leave town!”
About: I have had several dogs and cats over the years. I love how they are always happy to see you and they love you unconditionally I'm pretty sure I will be a little lonely without my son. I hope to fill that space with some special pets I work full time day hours. I work 2 minutes down the street so I could check on them often and spend the evenings with them 😉 I love pets. I will treat them as if they were my own. My son is going to college in August and I will be an empty nester
“Rachel was amazing. Our three dogs were well taken care and we received frequent updates. She went above and beyond to not only care for the dogs but also in looking after the house during our trip.”
About: There has always been a pet in the home since childhood, I’ve watched and taken care of 5 personally owned dogs from puppyhood to adulthood! I have babysat my aunts cat Tammy for a few months now, and I have taken care of my own dog Maestro when my parents are on vacation, or need an extra pick-me-up. I also have been volunteering at Humane Society of Harrisburg for about a few months now! I have always had a huge heart towards animals of all personalities and sizes. I’ve worked with nervous big dogs, to crazy little puppies! I would be more than willing to meet your amazing animal someday! 😊💕 I have a car available at all times, so I am easily able to provide as much time and energy as your animal needs. I also do not have a typical job, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I will be super respectful of your space and keep notes about certain things your animal needs, and provide spectacular feedback on how your animal is feeling, how the day went, overall what happened during my service! I am a wonderful listener and I learn extremely quickly.
About: I am comfortable walking long distances with your dog and caring for multiple cats. I believe in cleanliness and a positive experience for your pets! Current healthcare professional ready to assist others when things get busy, available when needed the most. I believe in cleanliness in the home as well. I have one cat that is fed twice daily, brushed once a day, and litter cleaned each evening. He is a senior cat needing a sensitive diet.
About: I am a professional dog groomer. I work with pets every day and I will take wonderful care of yours. I can ensure your long haired dog stays brushed and maintained. I come home every day early to mid afternoon. Your pup can join me on my walks with my personal dog! I’m available for overnight stays! I have a fenced in yard for play outside! I own a sheltie who is very friendly with others, who’s sure to keep your fur babies company.
About: I have had a dog almost my whole life and have taken care of him especially when he got older and couldn’t do stuff oh his own. I will be sure to take great care of your dogs when you are away and I will check in with you so you know how your dog has been. On weekends I have nothing to do so I am able to go to your house and take care of your pet as much as needed. I will make sure to be respectful to you and your furry friend, I will take them on walks, make sure to feed them , and play with them.
About: I’ve helped my mom take care of her dog since he was a puppy. I like to stop by and provide him with an enriching walk, some much needed playtime or even some pets and a relaxing staycation. I’ve also assisted my grandmother with her senior dog in the past. Although she was a senior pup it didn’t mean she deserved any less care. Making sure she was comfortable in her later years was something I valued deeply. I currently have a part time job generally working Monday-Friday from 5am-10am (times vary slightly). This schedule leaves me with a lot of time during the day that I’m looking to fill with a satisfying and fulfilling side gig. I care for my dog at home by providing him with enriching activities such as a leisurely walk, some simple fetch, going on a car ride locally so he can experience more smells or testing his nose by letting him find treats around the yard.
About: Raised with cats and dogs my whole life. I've raised kittens and puppies. I've taken care of senior cats and dogs. I love all kinds! I work full time until 4:30 pm. I am available Sunday to Thursday from 4:30pm to 8pm. With communication I can possibly be more flexible. At this time I do not have a home for pets. I'm looking into other options to expand my business offering for customers. Stay tuned!
“Mikayla is an amazing sitter and set my mind at ease the entire time we were away by sending pics and updates with every visit. When we met her, we could tell she has so much compassion and love for all animals. I feel lucky to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again!”

Hanna is super sweet! She followed all the instructions perfectly, and our baby was clearly loved, cared for, and happy throughout the time she babysat. We felt completely confident leaving her in his care and made us at ease while away. We’ll definitely be booking with her again from now on!
We are so happy that we had Lily drop in and take such amazing care of our cat Phoebe. We went away for 10 days, and Lily was always very punctual and thorough. She also is a great communicator and would give us updates on each visit. We look forward to our next getaway as we absolutely will have Lily as our Catsitter! Thanks again Lily!
Sydney was helpful and a very communicative caregiver for our kitty! It was our first time using a catsitter, and Sydney was such a great guide, and immediately bonded with our kitty. She was great with communication. And, she always sent us timely pics and videos. Thank you, Sydney!

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
