About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. What sets me apart is the balance of patience, responsibility, and genuine love I bring to every pup I meet. I am currently studying business at georgia southern university. i have no job and i am really flexible. i am in a sorority so i may have things come up last minute but will be notified!! I make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable whether in my home or yours. I follow routines, keep walks secure, and create a calm, caring space so every pet feels at home.
“Brooke went above and beyond during her recent booking. We have used her before and have been very pleased, but this time, while we were gone, Hurricane Helene struck. Our house was without power and water, and one of our cats was traumatized by the storm. Brooke was very prompt in responding to our messages, and she went out of her way to locate and comfort the cat who hid underneath our shed during and after the storm. She was very flexible, adjusting her visits at our request because we needed to extend our time away. Our cats really like her and feel comfortable with her, and we do, too!”
“Katherine was fantastic! She checked in on my cats while me and my husband were out of town. We received photos and she kept us updated. I would definitely recommend Katherine and hope to have her check in on our cats next time we are out of town.”

About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’m a responsible, dependable, and hardworking person who understands the importance of trusting someone with your home and pets. Growing up with a strong country and outdoor lifestyle has taught me responsibility, patience, and respect for animals. I will treat your pets and home with the same care and attention I would want someone to give mine. I’m also active and enjoy being outdoors, so I’m prepared to make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I pride myself on being trustworthy, communicating well, and following your specific instructions to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a college student at Georgia Southern, so my day-to-day schedule is built around classes and studying. I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for pets throughout the week. Availability: * Monday & Wednesday: Before 10 AM and after 5 PM * Tuesday & Thursday: Before 2 PM and after 6 PM * Friday: Very flexible — unavailable only from 10 AM to 3 PM This schedule allows me to provide reliable morning, afternoon, and evening care while staying consistent with your pet’s routine.

As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent attention, including feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and companionship based on your instructions. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I will work to keep them comfortable and maintain the routine they are used to while you’re away. Your home will also be treated with the same respect and care as if it were my own.
About: I’ve taken care of animals all growing up and have had many pets of my own. People such as my friends and family always trust me to petsit. I do go to college but I have a very flexible schedule and can usually come at any time when needed or as scheduled ahead of time. I do prefer having the pets at the clients home as I live in a dorm and can’t have pets over. I could come multiple times a day.
“I would leave more stars if I could! Britani has watched our pups on multiple occasions and always does an amazing job. Our babies love her and my mind is at ease when she is taking care of them while we are gone. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great pet setter. :)”
“Audrey was wonderful! She was super confident in giving shots to my pup. She communicated with me the whole time I was away. I’m very happy with her service and will be using her in the future. 😊😊😊”
About: I have cared for dogs all of my life. From puppy stage to elder care. They are not just our pets, they are our children. I work between full and part time, but will have plenty of time to make room to care for your fur babies! I can’t wait to work with you! I have a fenced in yard, but pet care at my house is not offered. I would love to provide pet care at your residence.
“I have only used Hannah twice so far but I have her on a reoccurring schedule. She has been awesome and gives my pup the attention she needs to get through the rest of the day. Highly recommend.”
“Shannon is attentive to your pet as if they are her own. She was a very sweet down to earth girl I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with. Her visits are well documented with cute pics and detailed information about the visit. Her comfortability level with the bully breed was a huge plus! I highly recommend Shannon's services. Feel safe and confident choosing her to care for your pets.”
About: I've had over 20 years of pet care experience, ranging between several different dog breeds and sizes, cats, rodents, reptiles, and even some bird-sitting. I understand each pet is different in their own way, some needing certain medications or volumes of food and water, and other pets are easier to take care of, but their owners need someone last minute to help watch and take care of their beloved pets. I also know when it comes to more than one pet in the household, some pets can get rowdy with each other and may tend to hurt one other, so I'm used to cleaning up after and treating the occasional bites or scratches they inflict. Having to give medications, give special food, and even seeing blood or recent wounds on animals doesn't stop me from providing the care they need while their owners are away at work or vacation or whatever else life has thrown their way. I've been known to be a reliable petsitter by many friends and family members over the years, and I make sure to follow all needs and specifications for each pet, regardless of their age and their size. At the moment, I am available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and then on Mondays and Wednesdays I am attending a class from 9:30 AM to 12:30 AM, which anytime before or afterwards I can help walk or watch over pets. While I do not currently offer petsitting at my own home due to my roommates, I understand that every owner's household and every pet is different. I make sure that each of the doors and windows are closed and locked for the pet's safety, unless otherwise specified by the owners. If there are certain rooms or parts of the house off-limits to myself or the pets, I keep us away from those areas for the owner's privacy. And if the pets do tend to make a mess or I use any of the utilities of the home to help clean and take care of the pets, I make sure that everything is turned off and cleaned up afterwards so there are no messes for the owners when they return to their home and beloved pets.
About: I grew up around pets my as a child and have owned dogs for 32 years of all sizes and types. I have always been the go to person for everyone to care for their pets and i love it. I have no problem feeding, bathing, training or walking your pet as if it were my own. Our pets are our children as well and we need to care for them the best way we can. I am self employed and work my own schedule so I can care for your pet Friday -Tuesdays 9am-3pm. Different days or later hours can be arranged with at least a weeks notice. I have a fenced yard and can Kennel the dog if needed but for the most part I prefer for them to get a feel of my home and my rules.

Megan visited with us before sitting with our dog, Brody. She did a wonderful job of caring for him while we were on vacation. She was punctual, sent us messages and photos at every visit, and went above and beyond during her visits with him. We will definitely be booking Megan again the next time we go out of town.

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.
