“Mariia was amazing with our cat, Biscuit! She was consistent in providing updates and photos, and Biscuit was clearly a huge fan of her. When we got home, the house was clean and the litter box too. Couldn’t ask for more in a sitter! Will definitely work with Mariia again.”
About: I’ve had dogs growing up and throughout my whole life! (pit bulls mostly) I have been caring for the family dogs for as long as I can remember. Right now we have two rescue pitties named Opie and Tillie. I love all animals and have been pet sitting for about 5 years. I usually volunteer and pet sit for the animal shelter or for people back home, but thought I’d sign up on here as well! I am a full time student, so I attend classes for a few hours during the daytime. Other than that, I will be staying with your fur baby full time (unless told otherwise)! If you give me care instructions I will be sure to follow them very closely and will feed, water, and let your pet out as needed! I love to walk dogs and play with cats/dogs as well! I will never leave your pet unattended for longer than advised to or deviate from any given instructions and take animal care VERY seriously. I will care for your babies as my own, because I know how stressful it is to leave your babies in the care of others!
About: I've never met a dog or cat I can't win over. I meet them at their pace, never pushing unwanted interaction onto them. I have volunteered and fostered for multiple shelters. I have experience administering medicine, grooming, and bathing. Currently working part-time, so I'm relatively free to look after pets. I am also a morning person, and I don't mind getting up early to check in on and walk someone's baby, especially with how hot it is right now. I will follow your guidance on your dog or cat's care in your household to a T. I want to alleviate the stress an animal may feel meeting a new person by sticking to their usual routine.
“Sloan did a great job caring for our 2 guinea pigs! She sent detailed updates and pictures and sent messages whenever she had a question or concern. Would definitely hire her again!”
“She did such an amazing job taking care of my dog! Not only did she make sure my pup got a great walk, but she also spent plenty of time playing with her and giving her extra attention. Receiving the photo updates was the best part of my day. She’s super reliable, friendly, and truly loves animals. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have always been great with animals ever since I was a kid. My family always calls me the ‘animal whisperer’. I have been pet sitting for many family members and friends for multiple years. I have experience with small dogs, large dogs, nervous dogs, energetic dogs, etc. I also have experience with cats, bunnies, and hamsters. I have gotten nothing but positive reviews from owners and I would love to take care of your furry friend! Because of my summer break I am available pretty much every day! Aside from a few vacations I am free both weekends and week days! Ensuring your pets safety and comfort is always my top priority. When I do drop in visits I will always make sure that there is nothing around the house that your pet could get into and get hurt.
“Lindsay is super fantastic. She clearly adores my pups and even carried my sweet tripod on part of a walk when he got tired. She lets me know if anything seems strange at the house and she sends absolutely amazing photos. I honestly can't recommend her highly enough.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and taken care of both dogs and cats in my adult life. I’m very experienced with walking dogs and even taking them on hikes, and am familiar with all sizes and temperaments! I am very excited to take care of your pet :) I’m currently working full time on weekdays, and so am available weekdays after 4 or 5pm, and all day during the weekends! I’m pretty flexible and open during those hours/days, so please reach out! I am a pet lover and am very excited to give your pet all of the attention - whether that’s long walks, playtime, or hanging out on the couch!
“Rickey was attentive and great with my dog! He was communicative, asked any questions he needed if something wasn’t clear, and Bobbi Jo was well cared for when we got back!”
“Brandi took great care of my dog during her drop-in visit! Due to being delayed, she gave extra time and took her for a walk which included getting to see and play with by dog's neighbor pals. And all the pictures showed the joy on both my dog and Brandi's face! Looked like the perfect visit and outing - thanks!”
“Whitney is an incredible sitter. She is wonderful with dogs and goes above and beyond in every regard. So grateful for her. My dog also LOVES her. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Zoe was very responsible and took such good care of our 2 cats. she responded quickly after every message and made everything super easy for us. we definitely recommend Zoe for any pet sitting needs:)”
“Once again, Adam did a great job of taking care of Mr Kitty and even gave him medication. He responded promptly to any concerns and let me know if there was something that concerned him. We would definitely use Adam again,”
“I really trust and like Jessica for watching over our kitties and home. She has watched over them numerous times and helped us out last minute when we really needed it. Our kitties are always content when we get home after their time with her”

Anna is the best! She’s watched cinnamon multiple times for me now. Cinny is not easy and she goes above and beyond giving her the best care while I’m away. She is always responsive, and I can tell cinnamon is having a great time in all the photos. Could not recommend Anna more!
Lucia was very thoughtful and kind, she did a great job walking and checking up on my dog max! He’s very old and has a lot of health issues, I usually have a hard time finding a willing sitter. Lucia met all of his needs with great care and attention. 5 stars and will definitely book again.
We needed someone last minute for morning drop-ins for our 2 puppers while we were out of town, and Madison was absolutely amazing!! Communication was on point, and we could really tell from the daily photos that the boys were absolutely LOVING their visits and walks. As someone who is fairly particular… I would absolutely, without hesitation, recommend Madison. 10/10. Five stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Lake Hills choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
