“My cats (and I) love Jonathan. He plays with and pets them during each visit and always sends lots of pictures! He brings in our packages and mail and does those little extras that are so special. I 100% trust him with my kitties ( most important) and in my house!! He is wonderful! You will be very happy you chose him.”
“Kyleigh was so sweet and great with our dogs! She sent multiple photos and a note after each visit, which always puts me at ease! She also left us a sweet thank-you card and some treats for our dogs! I would highly recommend her!”
“Diego was good at maintaining communication throught out my vacation and letting me know how my fur babies were doing. My Bassett Hound who is usually wary of people was quick to like him which made me less anxious to leave them for a long weekend. Will definitely use him again in the future!”
“I highly recommend Mehlayne to anyone looking for a caring, compassionate, and dependable dog sitter. She took wonderful care of my female Great Dane, Luna, and was very attentive to all of her specific care needs and routines. Communication was excellent throughout Luna’s stay. She kept me updated regularly with text messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing Luna was comfortable, happy, and being well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals entrusted to her. I felt completely comfortable leaving Luna in her care and would not hesitate to have her watch Luna again. I highly recommend her! Steve HEIDEL”
About: I’ve taken cared for dogs since I was a kid, sat since I was a teenager, and can provide your pup with the best care possible. I know dog training basics, so can keep up any training regimen you’re working on. I’m happy to give frequent walks, and even runs for energetic pups if needed. I also don’t work a normal 9-5, so your Fido will never be along for an entire day. I work part-time early mornings, every day, so for sitting I’m never gone for more than 5 hours. For daytime services I’m available anytime after 10am. I always ensure consistent scheduling for feedings and outings. I’m always early for walks and drop-ins, so no need to worry about flakiness. Glad to adhere to any other instructions, be they training related, feeding and care, or whatever else your pup needs. For energetic pups I’m happy to go for runs as well.
About: I grew up in a farm when I was little. I would feed the cows and the chickens in the morning. At the age of 7 I had bunnies and would take care of them. At the age of 8 I had my own calf as my pet her mother died so I fed her milk in the mornings. At the age of 9 I moved in with my dad and I started my dog loving journey. My love of dogs started with our first rescue her name was Nena. She was very playful and such a wonderful dog, that made me want to dogsit. I started dog siting at 12 and my passion for animals only grew stronger. I just now started my dog siting business again. I am currently in college for nursing. My free time is Friday through Sunday. I want to make sure all my attention is guided toward taking care of your dog which is why I dog sit Friday-Sunday. Your pets are normally kept in my room so that way my full attention is in them. I feed them according to their plan. From the time I wake up they will be taken outside every 2 hours to do their business. I also play with them if you bring toys. They have to bring their bed,food,food and water bowl. Toys are optional.
“Alex is so awesome! My cat is skeptical of most humans and can be quite feisty, but Alex was SO good with her from the first time they met. She was responsive to my cat's needs and didn't make her nervous or overwhelmed. She was great at administering meds and I felt so much more comfortable leaving for a week when I knew Alex was dropping in every day and checking on my cat - and my house! She's a true animal lover and even sent me photo updates of the bird nests on my front and back porches! I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to everyone!”
“Amelia was great at communication. We got frequent updates and pictures. The dogs were well taken care! I had no concerns and we ar looking forward to using her again soon! Highly recommended!!”

“Sara is our family’s trusted pet sitter for our two elderly cats that need daily medications/have health issues (allergies, asthma, thyroid problems). She is always so great with them and their needs, kind, and sends pictures/updates. She even left us the kindest, most thoughtful gift to celebrate a year of watching our little old men 💜 Thanks to Sara we are able to go out of town with peace of mind, leaving them with someone we can trust who treats them as if they’re her own. Thank you as always !!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Whitney Heights
Aly was amazing! She was able to help us out with a last-minute booking and did a great job. She was reliable, accommodating, and made the whole process so easy. I really appreciated her being available on such short notice. I would definitely recommend Aly and would happily book with her again!
Brianna was absolutely wonderful with our chocolate Lab and Boykin Spaniel, especially considering this was such a last minute request over the busy 4th of July weekend. She went above and beyond for our Lab, who is terrified of fireworks, by making sure he got his medication, turning on his sound machine, and ensuring he was settled and comfortable before she left. She kept us updated with great communication and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with Brianna again in the future. 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 .
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.
