“I came home to a very happy dog, the check-ins had the updates I was looking for and all instructions were followed perfectly! I wouldn’t hesitate to request Madison again in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of my own and friends dogs ever since I was young. From puppies to middle aged dogs, taking them for walks, feeding them, and training them. I am currently a student athlete with classes and practices in the mornings with open afternoons most days of the week. I only have 1 late afternoon class on Tuesdays which makes me available mid day. I focus on providing reliable, loving care and following each pet owner’s instructions carefully. I make sure pets are fed, exercised, given fresh water, and receive plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I adapt my care to their routine and personality while keeping their safety and comfort my top priority.
“Thank you for keeping me updated during your visits. We appreciate the time you took for the meet and greet, and for your warm and friendly demeanor towards Chief. You were so responsive to our questions and messages 😁”
About: I currently have baby-Neo, who’s a German Shepherd and Great Dane mix. However, I have worked with Rottweilers, labs, and boxers previously. My experience includes special feeding/diets, walks, playing, baths etc. I plan to offer walks and/or home visits. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m happy to assist. Visits and walks would be 30 min, and if feeding or any other special request is needed related to your pets, (including additional time!) please feel free to let me know in the initial visit to discuss. I would like to ask for an initial meeting to meet the pet(s) and go over the expectations regarding the services. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry babies! I am currently working part time job with flexible hours. However, my passion is dogs and looking to expand my experience/network and work with them more often! Strictly follow owners’ instructions! The owners are best suited to provide instructions on how to care for the pets which includes feeding any special diets, how to walk them etc. you can expect your directions, no matter how long to be strictly followed!
“Anastasia was a great sitter! I hired for a week of drop in visits. Everything went well and she sent me updates and photos during her visit. It certainly looked like my dog had a really fun time and was well cared for. I will definitely call her again in the future when needed.”
“Rebecca really has a special gift with dogs. Our Bailey is particularly timid and Rebecca was able to get her to come around for her. That and with Luna being recently diagnosed with heart disease, I was really nervous about leaving them at all. But, I have to say Rebecca did a great job of caring for them both and updating me while stopping in and visiting them for me. I appreciate that peice of mind.”
“Sara was so wonderful! I think she gave Cyrus extra attention and love. You can tell shes a real animal lover. She came and met him before and sent us messages and pics while we were away. She also seems very honest and trustworthy! I would highly recommend her to others so their pets can stay in their home where they are the most comfortable and not in a kennel. Thanks so much Sara!!”
“Elaina has watched my cats a few times now. She’s super reliable and communicative. My kitties seem to love her, and she takes great pics! I will continue to rebook as long as I’m in New York!”
About: I’ve had dogs around me my whole life. I have a strong love for them and all animals, I always have taken care of my own like bathing them and feeding them and I’m great at taking care of other dogs as well. Pet care is something i’ve always been interested in and I always will make time for it. If people need me to take care of their animal then I will be there. I have a small fenced in part in my yard and I have a small dog already at my house. I feed my dog, take my dog out, and play outside with her with her ball in the fenced in area. If I’m at the pet owner’s home, I will do the same: take the pet(s) out, play with them, feed them, give them water, and whatever else they will ask me to do.
“Anna was an absolutely wonderful sitter! She came twice a day and provided our 6 cats with first-rate care and companionship. She communicated extremely well and our cats, who are not used to strangers, all warmed up to her very quickly. That is a testament to how good she is! We will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs my whole life but i love all kinds of pets ive had them since i was born and i even have my own Boston terrier named Kona and a cloud calico named turnip I stay at home and my husband works Sat-Mon we have the rest of the days free and will be able to drop in or walks Tues-Fri Me and my husband take our pets with us everywhere we love to include where we can and we love them like our own children we always try to keep everything as clean as possible
“My four dogs are my family. What I appreciate most about Mariana is not just her obvious love for animals but her professional approach. Pet sitting is not a side job – it’s what she loves and it’s what she does for her livelihood. That means a lot to me when choosing someone to care for my dogs. I'm looking forward to my next trip this March 2019 and the stress of who is caring for my dogs is not even an issue. I can focus on looking forward to my trip and that is priceless.”

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.
