“Taylor was amazing while we were away! She kept our two cats happy and well fed while we were out as well, it seems they had a great time and I would definitely consider her in the future!”
“The best Dogsitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my dog (and my house) were safe and taken care of. She watched my dog during the big freeze and so it was an especially stressful time to be out and doing things, but she made sure everything was good and my dog was happy, even in the bad weather!”
“She did great with my dogs! Every visit I would receive pictures of them. My mind was at ease while I was on my trip which made it so much more enjoyable. If your like me and dont like to leave your fur babies in a kennel then this is the perfect option. They were safe and comfortable at home with multiple daily visits.”
“Anthony went above and beyond for my dog while I was away. He made sure to get him good exercise in while doing drop in visits and my dog was very happy to see him every time. 10/10”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years as I have three dogs of my own, so I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. I’ve helped care for family and friends’ pets by walking, feeding, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m patient, dependable, and love spending time with animals. Whether your dog needs a quick check-in, a long walk, or some extra attention and playtime, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, or special needs. I’m in college but I have plenty of time to care for your pups! I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine. I know consistency is important, and I’ll make sure your pup gets the care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I have three dogs of my own and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. During visits and walks, I’ll carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’m happy to send photo updates during each visit so you know your pet is doing well! I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect that I would expect for my own family.
About: I’m used to pet-sitting family-friends animals of all kinds and I’ve really grown to love it! I would be happy to look out for your animals any time! I am just starting college, so I will most likely be avalible in the afternoon/evening. But feel free to reach out anyway! I can always make extra time. My dog is rarely home, since we share him with our step dad. But because we have a dog (sometimes) we have a fully gated back yard with plenty of grass, a small animal pool, and a lot of toys and treats!!! Also sustainable water and food bowls.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have pet-sit on occasion. I have also been around cats for a while and have one of my own. I love all dogs and cats and enjoy getting to know each pets unique personality. I’m currently in school full time but am usually done with my day by 3pm. I love to go outside so a walk is always in the schedule. I have empty weekends most of the time. I live in a pet friendly apartment with my kitten. I have plenty of sidewalk and parks near me to take a dog or cat on a walk. There’s plenty of space if your pet needs personal space and plenty if they love other animals.
“Willow was fantastic, being extremely attentive and patient with my skittish kitty. She additionally kept me updated throughout the time and delt with surprises with grace (sorry again about the poop)! I'll definitely look to Willow again for future sitting.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for both dogs and birds. I currently have a senior dog of my own and pet budgies, so I understand how important it is to provide safe, attentive, and loving care.

I know every pet has their own personality, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience and care I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student with classes that finish around lunchtime, which gives me plenty of time each afternoon and evening to care for your pets.

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and have always loved caring for them.

I cared for my current dog through a knee surgery so can handle recovering animals. My dog has travel anxiety so I am used to administering pills if necessary. I’ve lived with small dogs and big dogs. I’ve lived with a dog with behavioral issues. I am trustworthy, reliable, and communicative. Happy to send pictures and updates about the status of your animals! I am currently unemployed and available when needed.

About: I’ve had a variety of animals growing up. There was never a time in my household where i did not have a pet. I am great with animals, they seem to love me as much as I do them! I attend Auburn university. I usually have 1-3 classes a day, but I am done by 12pm. I am available between 12-6! What better way to spend my free time! I have a strong love for animals. I am very passionate about them. If i were to watch your fur baby, I would play with them, make sure they eat well, take them out for fresh air! I even turn on cartoons that they can see the colors with!
About: I have taken care of dogs since for around 8 years. I started before I could drive and I would walk over to my neighbors house and feed/ play with their dogs while they were out of town. I have still continued to dog sit every once in a while when I am needed. I am a college student at Auburn University. I am also from Opelika so everyone that I have been dog sitting for in high school, I am still able to help out today. My schedule for next semester is very open and not too busy. I am also available over summer as well. I do have a goldendoodle at my parents house. She is 5 years old and loves playing with other dogs. I also have a car so I will be able to come to my clients house to take care their furry friends for as long as I am needed. Currently I live in a townhouse and would love to take care of your pets here!
About: With years of experience, I provide loving, personalized care for pets, ensuring their happiness and well-being through engaging activities, stress free exercise, and tailored attention.

I offer a completely clean, stress-free, and safe environment for your pets in my apartment with no other pets. As well, in your home I can ensure safety and cleanliness are my two of my top priorities.

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.
