“Maya’s first ever Rover experience with Lisha has been amazing! Lisha goes above and beyond to make sure she is comfortable, well cared for, and happy :) Lisha takes lots of photos and videos, checks in, and is overall a great communicator. We look forward to more weekends with her services.”
“Stephanie and Alex were an absolute pleasure to work with. They’re the definition of professional and took incredible care of our two kitties while we were away. We had total peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands and would absolutely book with them again.”
“Rachel did a fantastic job with Eazy (a skittish cat). She was even able to coax him out from under the bed and befriend him after a few visits. Above and beyond, she is highly recommended and would love to have Rachel again anytime.”
“Rie was so great with our energetic gal! She made sure to give her physical exercise, love and mental stimulation. Her check in's and reporting was thorough and reassuring to a worrisome dog-mom 😊 Thanks for taking such great care of Canella 🙌”
About: Hi, I’m Sharon! I have three small dogs of my own, and I’ve become the go‑to pet sitter for my friends whenever they travel. I’ve cared for animals with all kinds of personalities including the shy, anxious, or “usually doesn’t like people” types and they tend to warm up to me quickly. I’m patient, calm, and really good at helping pets feel safe and understood. Experience & Skills: Years of hands‑on experience with dogs and cats Great with nervous, reactive, or people‑selective pets Comfortable with senior animals and medication routines Attentive to feeding schedules, potty breaks, and behavior changes Respectful, tidy, and reliable in your home What You Can Expect: I treat every pet like one of my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep your home clean, and can water plants or handle small household tasks while you’re away. You’ll get consistent updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pets are doing. My Goal: To give you total peace of mind, happy pets, a tidy home, and a sitter you feel confident booking again. I work full‑time remotely, which means I can be with your pets throughout the day as long as there’s internet available. My schedule is flexible, and I’m able to stay in your home for extended periods while you’re away. I just ask for a little advance notice so I can prepare and coordinate my week. With one adult child and one teenager at home, I have plenty of time and availability to dedicate to caring for your pets and keeping their routine consistent. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment that matches their usual routine. I follow feeding schedules closely, keep water fresh, and make sure litter boxes or potty areas stay clean. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, especially with shy, senior, or sensitive pets who need a little extra reassurance. I give pets space when they want it and companionship when they seek it, whether that’s quiet time, playtime, or cuddles. I’m also comfortable with medication routines and monitoring behavior or hydration for pets who need closer attention. While staying in your home, I keep things tidy, respect your space, and can take care of small tasks like watering plants or bringing in packages. My goal is to make your time away stress‑free by ensuring your pets are happy and your home feels well cared for.
About: 🐾 My Daily Pet Care Routine I provide a comfortable, loving, and structured environment for every dog in my care. I work to follow each pet parent’s normal routine as closely as possible while making sure their pup receives plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and affection throughout their stay. 🌅 Morning: Our first outdoor potty break is typically between 7:00–8:00 AM. ☀️ Lunch: Around lunchtime, we head outside for a good walk and potty break, giving your pup an opportunity to stretch their legs, explore, and get some fresh air. 🍽️ Dinner: Dinner and another outdoor break are typically around 6:00–7:00 PM. I will always follow your preferred feeding schedule and instructions. 🌙 Bedtime: We have one final walk and potty break between approximately 8:00–10:00 PM before settling in for the night. 🐕 On-Site Dog Park My apartment community has an on-site dog park, which gives us another convenient option for potty breaks, outdoor time, and play. The space may be especially comfortable for smaller breeds, although I regularly see dogs of different sizes using it for quick outdoor and potty breaks. Our community also provides dog waste stations and complimentary poop bags, making it easy to keep the area clean and comfortable for everyone. 🦴 Pet Supplies & Feeding I come prepared with dog bowls, treats, and dog food. However, I strongly encourage pet parents to provide their dog's usual food whenever possible so we can avoid unnecessary dietary changes or upset stomachs. I will follow the feeding schedule, portions, treats, and other instructions you provide. ❤️ Lots of Love Included Affection is always included! I love giving my four-legged guests cuddles, attention, companionship, and plenty of love. After losing my beloved dogs Mylo and Leo, caring for other people's pets has become especially meaningful to me. Every pup who stays with me gets treated with kindness and affection while their family is away. 💜 Affordable Pet Care If you look at my listed rates and they're outside your current budget, please don't hesitate to message me anyway. Tell me about your pet, the dates you need care, and what you're working with financially. When possible, I'm happy to discuss adjustments and find an arrangement that works for both of us. I understand that expenses can add up quickly, especially in today's economy. I want dependable, loving pet care to remain accessible while still providing your pet with the attention and quality of care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! 🐾 I'm currently a remote worker from home. So they will have access to me at my home 24/7. Our daily current schedule is as follows. 5am wake up 530 potty time 9am breakfast and walk 2pm long walk 5-6pm Dinner 8pm+ Quiet time with our blankets and dog TV time I have a secured apartment and we always make sure the dogs are leashes first before opening the door to go outside. I am conveniently located next door to a local bike path where we walk and run.
“I don’t know what we would do without Joy! She is truly the best and my doggies love her. She is very trust worthy and a great communicator. We are so thankful for her!”
“Natalie was fantastic with my dog, Mochi! She was on time, dependable and reliable. I struggle leaving my pup with people and she made me feel comfortable with trusting my pet with her. Will be rebooking for sure and highly recommend!”
“Johnna provided excellent care for my three cats, Ole, Oskar and Ozzy. Excellent communication, punctual and responsible. Don't hesitate to book her to care for your pet!”
“Amazing communication, were super flexible and able to accommodate last minute booking, would absolutely use them again. My pups made quite a mess and they left my home spotless and even took out the trash and replaced the bag. Very thoughtful and considerate relieves alot of stress”
“Tayla was once again so great with our cat! She helped us with trouble shooting our automatic feeder and we made a plan b together when the feeder stopped working. She also sent such great photos of our cat while we were away and missing her!”

Would highly recommend Matthew. He was great with communication and went above and beyond. Even though it was his first time caring for pet rats, he did such a wonderful job and made sure that he understood exactly what they needed. He was very attentive and made us feel at ease while we were away on a family trip. Would definitely use him again 😊
Lauren took great care of our shy cat and made sure to give him the space he needed, while also playing and interacting with him in a way that made him comfortable. She even cleaned up any messes we had while we were gone, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend her as a sitter!
Rachel did an amazing job as our sitter. She not only gave us peace of mind during our vacation that our cat was well cared for and safe, she also was very thoughtful in the little details of our cats needs during her visit. For example when she noticed our cat was a little stressed from the noise of the landscapers, she made sure to give extra comfort, and close the windows for her. Really special care! And all the updates really make a difference. Thank you Rachel!
Laura is great! She is very communicative and thorough. I appreciate how understanding she is of our rambunctious puppy and sometimes overly excited adult golden. She helped us out on short notice for a drop in, and she’ll be coming back for a longer stay soon. Very relieved to have found her.
Viktoriya saved the day! Last minute drop in visit with my cat because the automatic feeder stopped working when I was out of town. She fixed the feeder, cleaned up a little mess the cat had left on the floor, and kept me up to date. Cat was hiding under the bed the whole time, but came out as soon as she left to get some food. So grateful she was available. Very professional service. Would highly recommend!

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.
