“Rebecca really saved me. I was In a pinch for a last minute drop in and she got right back to me. She was very communicative and understanding of my demanding cats haha. Made sure to understand all instructions and gave me a great update. I can tell my cats were very comfortable. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Sarah was punctual and took wonderful care of Penny and Pepper (aka pippa). She put my mind at ease with regular updates and snapshots which I loved! I definitely recommend her and plan to book with her again.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care As a college student at mass maritime, I have class for at least a few hours every day with some days being longer but I can definitely work around my classes to give your pets the best care I will follow any rules and care instructions you give, also I won’t snoop around or go anywhere in your house that you don’t want me to be.
“Maggie was great with our goldendoodle. She helped us last minute with a drop-in visit and was very communicative and put our mind at ease. Would highly recommend Maggie!!”
“Kathleen has gone over and beyond for my puppy . She takes such great care of her. She’s very attentive and reliable . I would request her every time I need a sitter.”
“Had such a great, easy experience with Sydney! The dogs absolutely love her and she really is a dog whisperer. My dogs aren’t the easiest and yet they are so calm with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker”
About: I am new to Rover but have been working professionally as a part-time dog walker and pet sitter (cats and dogs) for a top-rate company for the last year and a half. I love it! Additionally, I am the proud owner of two German shepherds and have had shepherds continuously since 2007, including a retired police dog. Our current shepherds, Fritz and Petra, train in obedience, tracking and protection. While I do not offer dog training, you might be interested to know that my own dog is trained daily. I am familiar with English, German, and hand signal commands. Cats: I was brought up with Siamese cats and had a series of Siamese until recently. I also care for cats as a pet sitter. I am well versed in cats’ needs. I work part-time three days per week and have a pretty flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to take care of your pet. I currently do not offer care in my home, but I am happy to care for your pet(s) on their home turf following your guidelines. Think of me as your surrogate. I focus on safety first. Depending on your needs and requests, I offer on-leash walks in the neighborhood, indoor or outdoor off-leash play (at your fenced in yard with your toys) in all weather, feed your pet, refresh water bowls, scoop litter boxes, and provide relief opportunities. An overnight service includes dinner preparation, exercise, play and TLC.
About: I love dogs so much! I’ve always had dogs since I was young! I currently have a dog, his name is Iroh and he is 1 years old. He is a handful but I love him so much! I’ve given dogs medication so if that is required I got it! I can’t wait to meet your dog(s)! I work full-time so this is my part time job but that doesn’t mean I give part time energy to your dogs! Your dog will get the most energy from me! I live in an apartment and my complex has a fenced in dog park for all dogs and my dog loves it! So your dog will have space to run around and have fun! And in your home I will do whatever I am told to do!
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 3 years old, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have hands on experience with large breeds and am confident handling bigger dogs with different energy levels. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the importance of patience, comfort as they age. I put a lot of love and care into every pet I watch. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. Making sure they feel safe, loved, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule where I work from home somedays. My partner also works 5 minutes from our house and is able to help with potty breaks during the day. We spend a lot of time in our yard or walking the canal on nice days and would love a wagging tail to join us. We have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood to go on walks. We love to go to the canal and spend time outside. We have a fully finished basement with mini splits and air circulation system, perfect for any size dog to enjoy!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting regularly for the past four years for three wonderful families! I have experience from energetic labs to mellow mixed-breeds dogs and cats! I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, administering basic routines, and giving lots of love and attention! As someone who loves being outdoors, I enjoy long walks and making sure dogs get plenty of movement and adventure. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to get to know their quirks to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos (as much or as little as you prefer) so you can have peace of mind but also know your pet is in good hands. 😇 I'm currently working as a server, so my schedule can be very flexible and I can typically request time off to make time for your pets! I can care for your pet in your home! I feel this is most comfortable for pets as opposed to getting to know a new person and environment simultaneously.
About: this is my first time using a professional app for dog sitting, I have always helped animals at any local party/event I've gone too. Even if I am not asked to, I ask attendees if I can fill up food/water bowls, give them walks, tend to their needs, whatever to take off the hosts mind. I'm currently working part time ! My schedule is usually free after 2pm and I can come in all day on Mondays , Tues , and Thursdays. When I had a dog and a cat my yard was always fenced up, I can provide walks around the neighborhood if it's wished, and If you animal feels the need to sleep by my side at night they can do so as pleased, any accommodations provided to your furry friends will be fulfilled.
“I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Caitlin. I needed a last-minute drop in as our plans had suddenly changed and I’m so happy we chose Caitlin. She was responsive, flexible, prompt, and catered to about 14 special requests. She kept us updated during her entire stay and sent ADORABLE pictures and videos. If you’re looking for a responsible, kind, dog-loving person to help you out, look no further! Our dogs LOVED her, too!”
About: I am a dedicated pet sitter with extensive experience caring for pets. My background includes managing daily routines, administering medications, and ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise and affection. I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every pet, providing peace of mind for their owners. No problem for me! I work a few days a week but nothing I cannot manage. I will still be very present when staying with your dog! What’s not better than letting your pup stay in their own home instead of a kennel while you’re away?! I am a very prompt replier via phone call and text message. I will continue your daily routine with your pup as if you never left & I will always give them care/ love like they are my own:)
“Chelsea was fantastic. We have a crew of dogs, all with very different needs and Chelsea gave each of them exactly what they needed. We could not recommend her more highly. Simply, she is great.”
About: Hi! I’m Lexi, an experienced pet walker with a lifelong passion for animals. I've grown up with pets and have been caring for others' animals since I was 10. I currently have two dogs and have taken care of pets ranging from puppies to seniors. Your furry friends will be in safe, loving hands with me! I am available almost everyday as long as I have a 3 day notice, as far as staying in home visits I require a 5 day minimum notice! I do not currently offer overnight boarding at my home. I am happy to do overnights in the home of the pet. I am able to do day boarding in my own home with notice.
About: I have watched dogs all sizes, breeds, and personalities since I was 16 for neighbors, friends, and family. I have fed pets, taken pets for walks, and hung with them. I do work full time but I’m around weekends, week nights, Thursdays, and Tuesday mornings. I have two dogs myself so I know how to manage time. I can crate your dog, make sure they are in a comfortable environment, make a close relationship with our dog and have no danger around them.
About: Due to my current employment situation, I have lots of schedule flexibility to suit the needs of your animals. I have been caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes since I was young and have done it on a more regular basis over the past 8 years. I have grown up always having dogs and cats so I am extremely familiar with caring for animals. Even the most skeptical dogs quickly trust me for my loving nature. I am always prepared to pay full attention to any animals in my care and to respond to any challenging situations that may come up. I truly love animals and am very excited at the opportunity to help others with the care and support of their furry friends! Your pet’s day will look exactly like it does when you’re with them! I pride myself on helping dogs to keep their routines. I am happy to offer whatever enrichment activities we discuss for your pet such as car rides, dog parks, play dates etc but also understand these are not for every dog so will never do anything we didn’t explicitly clear. I am very adamant about understanding the ways you keep your pet safe at home. I am extremely cautious when coming and going. I keep an eye on all pets in yards, even when they don’t typically require this. In 15 years of dogsitting, I have only had one dog slip away from me and handled it quickly and safely.

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.
