“Markie did a great job with our cats while we were away. We know they got lots of love and attention and everything was tip-top when we got back! Would recommend!”
“Andrew was great! He was on time, had great communication, and went above and beyond. He took great care of my dog Shadow and I will certainly hire him in the future. If you’re looking for someone dependable and great with dogs, look no further!”
“We just got back from a week-long road trip and honestly, the best part was not worrying about our dogs the entire time. Cailynn took care of Jasper and Gordon like they were her own. Two small dogs with two very different personalities is not always an easy ask, and she handled it effortlessly. We got regular photo updates that made the whole family smile, especially our girls, who checked for new pictures every morning. Everything was clean and in order when we got home, and both dogs were relaxed and clearly well cared for — no anxious behavior, no adjustment period, just happy pups. Communication was easy from the start, scheduling was flexible, and she followed our feeding and walk routine exactly as we left it. We'll absolutely be booking again for our next trip and recommend her to anyone in the area without hesitation.”
“Clareese was so kind and attentive. She took great care of my cat and also kept me informed the whole time I was away. I was not worried at all. She was a perfect fit for our needs, and I definitely will be rebooking her!”
“Erin was great to work with. She took great care of our dogs. It was a relief to know she was caring for them while we traveled. I would book her again in the future.”
“Alexander was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous at first. I have a Great Dane and she is my animal child so, like any pet parent, you want the best for them. My dog was very hesitant at first because she was on guard and protecting her home. I left treats at the door just in case. Alexander was so patient with her and feed her treats to gain her trust. As the days went on, the "check-in" photos made my heart smile. I could see London letting her guard down her guard and that was all because of how sweet he was. I will certaintly use him again!”
“Maryann was amazing with our foster pup Jimmy Buffet. She took him for long walks, made sure he got lots of treats, and worked on some basic commands with him during her visits. She took cute photos during each visit and had really great communication. We wouldn’t have been able to foster without her.”
“Allicia was wonderful!!! My pets instantly felt at ease with her. She was reliable, sent daily -really cute photos(she could be a pet photographer ?)!! and communicated throughout the service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Justin was great to work with overall. I used him to take my dog out while I was at work and he texted me updates during the visit and took pictures as well. He also documented a summary of the visit and left my place exactly as I found it. I would highly recommend him and use him again if I need him.”
About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
“Disha was absolutely incredible! My wife and I were away for 10 days, and she took amazing care of our cat, Little John, who is truly our pride and joy. She stopped by every day, provided great updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Disha is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Melanie is the absolute best. She took time with each of my 3 kitties. Ensured they felt special and loved. She is experienced in health of cats and is attentive to their habits and needs. She was super observant of them for their behaviors. I received a ton of photos and videos and text updates of her visits. I would absolutely welcome Mel to my home again to care for my kitties.”
About: I have taken care of/owned dogs for 15 years. I have experience with all sizes of dogs, as well as various breeds. I love animals of all kinds! I have also owned and cared for cats, reptiles, and small critters like guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and rabbits! We recently had to put our dog down due to illness, so I want to help other dog owners take care of their furry family members! I am a therapist and work a part-time, flexible schedule. I am available for morning, afternoon and evening drop-ins throughout the work week as well as weekends! I have a yard with a runner or can take your dog out on their leash if you prefer. We have one story so minimal steps involved for older pups.
“While our family was away Sarah took excellent care of our dogs. It was a comfort knowing that our dogs were in good hands. Thank you for taking such good care of them.”
About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs! I have experience feeding, playing, bathing, walking, and even training young dogs with simple things. I was able to gain experience taking care of dogs because I have a dog of my own who is now a senior. I’m also a dog walker at my local animal shelter which allows me to interact with dogs of all ages and different behaviors. Aside from dogs, I also have experience feeding and playing with cats. I have two cats who are friendly, love cuddles, neck scratches, and are amazing with my dog! I’m a college student who commutes to school. I have more flexibility during breaks but throughout the school year weekends are what would work best. I have experience with both cats and dogs. This has allowed me to work with animals that have different behaviors. I believe that animals require patience and love just like any other being. If needed, your pet will be in good hands in my home since my cats and dog get along very well.
“Alexis is great. We have wonderful peace of mind when we are away. It is wonderful to return home to clean litter boxes and happy cats. Alexis is the “cat whisperer”. We have one cat that does not seam to like any body, except for Alexis. Love the daily pictures. I highly recommend.”

Ashley is amazing! Her care and attention to the cats made it easier to enjoy my time away, knowing that they were in good hands. She went above and beyond to make sure they were safe, healthy, and not stressed out. She communicated clearly and sent lots of pictures. Great job!
Markie is perfect! When a dog's human returns home and the expression is "oh, it's you" that means our beloved pup is calm, content and secure in the knowledge that everything is fine and someone will always come through the door and take care of walks, food, and lovings. For us, that has been Markie. Stella loves her and so do we!
Erin was highly communicative and dependable. She took great care of our two large, high-energy dogs while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions in advance to make sure she a thorough understanding of the dogs and what they needed. We would happily work with Erin again!
Rylee watched our 3 cats during an extended vacation and it gave us peace of mind that they were being well taken care of. The cats usually find unique ways to destroy the house while we are out but we came back to everything in its place. And our cats are shy, but bonded with Rylee after just a few days and we loved getting pics of them getting plenty of pets.

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 .

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.
