About: I've always loved dogs and cats and felt very passionate about them. I have two years animal shelter experience taking care of dogs and cats. This included feeding several different types of foods and diets to pets, ensuring pets' safety, cleaning cages and kennels, cleaning litter boxes, and taking out dogs into the yard. I am available most days and times every week to care for your pets. I offer mostly drop ins and I do have exceptions like I will be going on vacation this month so just message me within one day to request a booking. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I pay attention to dogs and cats body languages to ensure their safety needs and emotional needs are met. I let pets come to me first so that they can feel comfortable and safe around me. I treat every pet with respect and if they do not want to say hi yet, that is totally fine with me I will feed them and clean litterbox, etc and they will warm up to me eventually. I watch puppies and young dogs very carefully so that they do not get into trouble and I always make sure the floors are puppy/dog proofed.
“Shannon is AMAZING! She agreed to take my Charlie out after a few sitters turned me down due to timing. She is reliable, punctual and dependable. I have peace of mind knowing Charlie is in good hands with her. She also takes great photos of Charlie :).”
“Need someone last minute. John responded promptly and was very communicative during his stay since it was his first time looking after my dog. Took him for a pee break and a little walk and gave him treats and my dog looked happy. Very pleased. Thanks!”
“I am very happy with Barry. He is great at communicating with me, dependable, and has a genuine love for dogs. My dog can be a challenge and Barry has handled him in a very appropriate, caring way. I think they are becoming friends.”
“Nicole was wonderful with our cats. She was attentive to their behavior and feeding, and good about letting us know when she'd be seeing them. The cats (Rufus especially) trusted her right away and looked forward to her visits.”
“This was our first time using a service and Michele was fantastic ! My social butterfly kitty came out day 1 and the shy, reclusive sisters came out day 2 - for scritches and play ! Hasn't happened for family, so I think we've found a keeper !! She did a great job and kept us posted on activity. Thanks Michele !”
“Abby was absolutely amazing with my puppy. She followed instructions, took initiative and truly cared for my pup like her own. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a reliable responsible punctual caring pet sitter.”
“Jeremy and Rui treated my boy Zero with so much love and care and zero was very taken care of while I have been gone. They communicated very well with me and kept me very informed of how he was doing. The meet and greet went very well as well and they got to know Zero and asked a lot of great questions and answered every question I had as well. Highly recommend them!”
“Samantha was very responsive while taking care of our two cats while we were gone for a week. One of them is a very good hider, and she went out of her way to make sure they were both happy and healthy. We would definitely work with Samantha again in the future!”
“⸻ I’ve been trusting Abhay with my dog for the past four years, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly reliable and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is his excellent communication. After each session, he provides thoughtful updates on how things went, which shows how attentive and engaged he is. On the rare occasion when there’s any uncertainty, he doesn’t hesitate to reach out for clarification, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that he takes both his work and my dog’s well-being seriously. It’s a huge comfort knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands.”
About: Hello Canine Parents, I love and welcome dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. While you are away, I will feed, walk and play with your with puppy or dog with love and compassion. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully monitor interactions and create a calm environment where your fur-baby can relax and enjoy themselves. I will care for your dog as if they were my own! My schedule would be based on your dog's needs. I am available for daily check-ins, over night stays and daily walks. Your dog's needs come first. When caring for your dog in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal, comfortable and stress free as possible. I will follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, portion sizes, treats, medications and any special dietary needs. Fresh water will always be available. Daily walks and exercise would be tailored to your dog's age, energy level and your preferences. Exercise could be a short/long walk, short bathroom breaks, playtime in the yard or indoor activities. Companionship, affection and attention are a must when caring for your pet.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life and am comfortable with all kinds, big and small. Ive dog and cat sat for friends before and enjoy spending time with the animals. I currently work at a dog daycare and spend 5 days a week with the dogs. I am a college student who commutes and has class two days a week. My availability is very open and am willing to pick up last minute visits or walks. I will pay close attention to your pet during walks or visits and spend time with them/give them space if that is what would make them most comfortable.
About: As a former veterinary receptionist, I’ve had 3 years of experience helping care for dogs and cats. Now pursuing art, I’m looking to continue to help take care of pets. I’m currently working on pursuing my art career, so my schedule is pretty open for drop ins or walks. I’m occasionally available for in-house pet sitting. In the part few years, I’ve developed a real heart for animals. Pet care is so important, giving a voice to those who can’t speak.
“We couldn’t be happier with Rachel. She is reliable, caring. She provided always great updates. us peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and wonderful with dogs!”
About: I believe each dog is a gift, and will come with their own specific needs. I can adapt to fulfill those needs, and do it with extra care and love. I am a homemaker and wife, with my own two furbabies. There’s Zoey, our senior Pug and Dozer, her son, a Bugg. Other than making sure they are taken care of, my availability is wide open and flexible. I am ever vigilant over my dogs and would do the same for yours. We have a nice fenced in back yard, routinely cleared of poop. We actually use fragrance free baby butt wipes after each poop, to eliminate any accidental markings on furniture. If you’d like this service, just ask. Also, I keep their water and food bowls clean and full. And always have plenty of toys(all different kinds-soft, hard, chewy, squeaky, etc) to keep distracted. We also have several nice plush/soft beds for down time. I also have experience potty training multiple pups, and feel confident to offer that service. I am also very familiar with the needs of senior dogs and can adapt to fulfill their needs. My job is to make your pup have their best day!

We reach out to Adriana first whenever we need intermittent/drop in visits for our sweet 15 year old dog. She's used to us home with her most of the time, and when we need to leave her for longer than she's used to, Adriana gives us great peace of mind by dropping in. She's always terrific with communication and dependability. Thoroughly recommend!
Julia has a kind, gentle and fun way with animals. She has worked with a wide variety of animals. Prior to her initial visit, Julia was easy to communicate with regarding my wishes and concerns. During her visit with my 4 year old Portuguese Water Dog, she exceeded my expectations. She has a great attention to details. My dog was all smiles in the pics from her visit and seemed less needy than usual for my attention when I returned home from work that day. I have booked Julia for regular future visits and would highly recommend her to other pet parents!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Whitman stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
