“Annabelle did a great job looking after our 4 cats. She sent pictures of each cat every day. By the second day, they seemed to have gotten to know her. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Elizabeth and family did an awesome job with the two drop in visits for our dog Scarlet. The communication was great and I appreciated all of the details in the visit summary as well. Thank you!”
“Like always Katie is the best for our doggies. They love her, she loves them. We love it when she drops in for a walk and feed them. We leave our dogs at home with peace of mind when Katie comes over.”
“Desiree was absolutely wonderful with my dog while I was out of town. She was reliable, caring, and made sure my dog was well taken care of the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and my dog was happy and comfortable when I returned home. I highly recommend Desiree to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Hi I'm Kendall, I would love to take care of your furry friends! I have been around dogs of all ages and breeds all my life! I have a dog of my own, and I've had my family dogs for 15 years! My dog has epilepsy, so I have extensive experience taking care of dogs with special needs and administering medication. I have been pet sitting on rover for 6 years and I’ve been watching friends and family’s pets for years! I Have also worked at a horseback riding barn caring for the horses. Look forward to hearing from you! I am available during the evenings and weekends for drop in visits, or all week for boarding. My husband works close and I work a hybrid job so we’re flexible! I have an extremely friendly dog and will treat your dog as part of our family. We live in a neighborhood perfect for long walks and we have a yard making play time easy! My dog has special needs and I am comfortable administering any medication.
“Violeta took sweet care of our kitties. We did a meet and greet beforehand, and showed where everything was located. Once or twice, we were out of pocket on vacation and unable to respond to a message, and Violeta was so gracious, even when she us to leave and come back the same day. The litter area was kept tidy despite our cats being messy boys, and followed all instructions for disposing of litter and pet waste. Violeta also spent time giving the kitties extra TLC and playing with them. Highly recommend. Will be repeat clients.”
“Tara was awesome! I’ve used her help multiple times now… found her last minute through Rover and quite grateful I did! I travel quite a bit, and relocated, so having to find someone new that I trust to come into my home when I’m not there, isn’t always the easiest! Highly recommend her! She’s awesome!!”
About: I have always loved all kinds of animals. I grew up befriending and taking care of multiple neighborhood pets. I ran a pet sitting business for most of my childhood. I recently worked at a vets office and have experience with all kinds of animals in all kinds of conditions. This also means that I have experience taking care of sick pets or being able to medicate when instructed. I have been a long time cat lover, now having three live with me in my home. Each have their own unique personalities and traits, no cat is "just a cat" to me. I have my older scaredy cat, my middle aged "annoying" brother cat, and our sweet rambunctious younger girl cat. I think I have a good personality for meeting new cats and usually can get them to warm up to me in time. I am quiet, calm, and clean, content to spend time with the smallest of your family. I am looking to do more and more cat sitting, I will be available all summer! I would love to spend more time with your pet. In my own home I do daily litter box cleanings, food and water bowl swaps, and play multiple times a day. Generally pet's worlds are our homes and I believe it is important their world is clean and stimulating.
About: I’ve been around dogs and helping care for them since I was seven years old, starting with my own dog growing up. I also have experience living with and helping care for five dogs at once, each with their own dietary needs and routines. This taught me how important it is to pay attention to each dog’s individual personality, schedule, and care instructions. I absolutely love dogs and the companionship they provide! 🐾 I enjoy spending quality time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing fetch, giving them plenty of attention, or simply keeping them company. I’ll always treat your dog with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to plan my other responsibilities around caring for your pets and make sure I have time for feedings, walks, playtime, check-ins, and plenty of attention. I also have three cats of my own, so caring for animals is already a natural part of my everyday life. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal schedule and routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away! 🐾🤍 When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible while their owners are away. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medications if needed, litter box or potty care, playtime, and any other parts of their normal routine. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship based on their individual personality and needs. I’m also very respectful of each family’s home and will keep pet areas clean and tidy. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! 🐾🤍
“Diane did an amazing job taking care of our babies! She was very responsive and even came out to meet them before we left. She kept our house clean and orderly and kept our dogs on schedule. I highly recommend this sitter!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and neighbors for years, and I truly love it. Whether it's a catnap snuggle or a long dog walk, I’m happy to help your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. I'm currently saving up for graduate school, and pet sitting is a great way for me to do something I enjoy while helping others. I work the predictable full time work schedule Monday thru Friday, 9am-5pm! I am happy to hang out with your pet before or after. If close by I could check in during my lunch break! I am very flexible to your pets needs, I want to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you are away! I am also happy to send you updates so you are also comfortable and assured!
“I can't say enough good things about Kaylee. She saved me when some plans fell through, and responded immediately to all communication when I was stressed. She did several drop-in visits for my large, enthusiastic golden retriever, and provided cute pictures of him chasing his tennis ball and having fun, which was so reassuring. She was extremely prompt during the range of times I provided. I can see why she has so many positive reviews--would 100% book again.”
“Annie was wonderful with our cats! I wish the cats had been a little more friendly for her, but they (and we) very much appreciate the care she took with them. Thanks!!”
About: Atlanta artist, creative, and lifelong animal lover! 10+ years of pet experience...endless cuddles, belly rubs, adventures, and lots of love for every furry friend. I’m currently available part-time, with late mornings and early afternoons being my ideal times. I’m also happy to help with evening care when given a little notice! Every pet has their own personality and routine, so I follow your guidelines closely and care for your home respectfully. My goal is for your furry friend to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!
About: Since I can remember, I have always adopted stray cats and kittens, even though my parents were always against it. Finally, at fourteen, they allowed me to adopt four newborn kittens I found in a box outside. They became my children. I would wake up every 2-3 hours to feed and warm them, massage their bellies so they could digest properly, and give them the mom cat love they unfortunately missed. When they were mature and ready, I gave the three of them to adoption while keeping one who I called Stiglitz, after my favorite movie character. He still lives happily with my dad. Since I live with roommates now, we can't commit to having a pet together, but we want to give our love and experience to cats who need it while their owners are away (: My roommates and I both had cats in the past, so we know exactly what to do in any situation. My roommates and I both work hybrid. We spend some time at home working but also leave for a few hours. But we are pretty flexible if we need to be at home some extra time if our cat/s need it! We have a very spacious house, which will be perfect for a kitten to feel free and comfortable, play, and let some energy out if needed. We also keep it very clean, so if your kitty is allergic to dust or anything else, they won't suffer here. Also, we genuinely love cats, so if they need extra snuggles, we are here to give them that. But we also know that some cats need their space, and we will always respect that! Regarding care at the client's home- if you need anything, we got you! We have experience in pet sitting and babysitting, so we are both very attentive to the client's needs, and we will do anything to make sure your furry baby feels the best!
About: My dog recently passed due to age, which means I have experience caring for a pet of all ages. I have a lot of free time over the summer and simply can not wait to give your dog a hug! I miss it:) I have plenty of space, time, & excitement to watch your pet, and I know how stressed I used to be when I’d leave my dog with someone so I will definitely keep you updated with photos, videos, etc🤍 I am open to any schedules and preferences you have as well. I am a recent college grad looking for work and what better way than to look for some puppy love! I would love to dedicate much of this free time to caring for your pet, making him/her feel at best while your away! I love movie nights to snuggle with your pup! I have a nice home for your dog to be comfortable in as well as a big yard for your dog to play! My neighborhood is large to take him/her on walks; I loved to let my dog stop and smell the flowers and always made sure to bring enough water. I would definitely make sure to do the same with your dog and try my hardest to give them the best time, they deserve it:)
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Windrush
I had a great experience with Mark ! My dog can be a little sleepy during the day due to her medication, but she seemed very comfortable and well cared for. I appreciated the updates and attention she received. It was clear she was relaxed and in good hands. Communication was excellent, and I felt confident knowing she was being looked after with kindness and patience. I would definitely book again and highly recommend Mark's services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you for taking such good care of my little Lulu ! 🐾

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.
