“Sean has been amazing with my baby girl! It gives me so much comfort knowing she’s in great care while I’m away. Since my girl is a strong dog I have never felt comfortable with anyone taking her for walks, but with Sean I have total confidence and she is a much more relaxed dog when I come home:)”
About: I've had dogs and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I'm retired now, and I have all the time in the world to hang out with yours! I'm retired, with nothing to distract me from taking care of your pet. I have a nice yard to entertain your dog during the day, or I can come over and hang out with your pet. Either way, I'm your guy! I have a fenced yard and all the time in the world to hang out with or entertain your pet at my house or yours.
“Samantha was amazing and took care of my baby girl so well. She was super responsive and sent soo many pics with her updates which I loved. She followed my care instructions to a T And my dog was a happy girl when I got home. I got delayed a night and Samantha was able to come by one more night last minute. Will be booking again!”
About: I’ve looked after neighbors dogs and family friends dogs for years. I’m knowledgeable in canine body language so I can read their comfort levels and ensure they aren’t getting overwhelmed. I am very proficient in bathing dogs, I get dogs with double coats deshed and curly coated dogs brushed out. I am currently working part time at a dog grooming facility, but I have few hours. I would have plenty of time to play or lounge with your pups depending on their needs. If your dog is low energy, I would be more than happy to just hang out and play low impact games with them. For my high energy buddies, I would be happy to (with pet parent permission) take them on a trail hike or play ball.
About: I have been trusted by friends and family to pet sit the past 3 years. I love all animals the same and have owned multiple pets my whole life. I am working part time and college part time with a flexible afternoon schedule. Mornings on Friday-Sundays are always great and give me lots of free time. I have a secure fenced in backyard with chickens separated to the side. We have a dog crate inside. At this time I do not offer boarding while I am trying to train my puppy.
“Doris did a great job taking care of my kity while we were away. She was kind and respectful, and cleaned up after her when needed. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Samantha was amazing! She was very sweet with our older cats. She was extremely detailed in her updates, very thorough and great with her communication. Our cats were very well cared for while we gone, which gave us such a peace of mind. We will be booking Samantha for all future pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and small pets since childhood and have 7 years of formal pet/house-sitting experience in San Diego, including daily walks, medication administration, and senior-pet care. I’m calm, punctual, and used to following detailed routines and owner instructions while keeping homes clean and secure. As a certified calisthenics trainer and wellness coach I bring stamina for long walks, reliable energy for active dogs, and a respectful, low-impact presence in homes; I’m happy to provide references and a video call before booking. My schedule is flexible, and I can give pets consistent care throughout the day. I’m usually available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, with enough time for walks, play, feeding, and check-ins. I prioritize a calm, clean, and safe environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, respect home rules, and make sure pets feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid, fostering dogs and cats, volunteering at SPCAs, and helping my mom dog-sit. My wife and I have 2 dogs, 1 cat, and 2 reptiles. Mya, our 7 year old Husky, and MJ, our 9 year old American Shorthair, have been with my wife for 7 years. Solina, mixed breed puppy, and our reptiles are newer additions. It would just be me providing care! My wife and I have a great routine for our pets. We feed them and take them out at consistent times throughout the day. We also take them on outdoor adventures at least once a week. We make sure pets are well taken care of while not letting them run wild. Our dogs are friendly and used to other dogs. The cat keeps to herself. We have a crate can keep dogs in rooms for alone time. If caring in someone else’s home, I would respect your personal property and ways of doing things.
About: I have been caring for animals for 45 years! I'm a certified master groomer and trainer. I thank God everyday for our animals! I can't imagine life without them! Rest assured your pet will be well cared for while staying with me. I am typically home caring for animals 24/7. In addition to boarding dogs and cats, I have a grooming facility on my property. I have lots of experience with all types of dogs and cats. My property is 10 acres and is completely fenced. I have indoor and outdoor (covered) kennels. The small dogs stay inside my home, while the large dogs stay inside and out. In addition, I have a grooming facility that has crates for the animals that prefer to be crated and/or if they don't get along with other animals. I have 6 outdoor large runs, that has an attached play area that is fenced with 12 foot fencing. All animals are walked ( on leash) around the property twice a day, as part of there stay. I have experience with all types of dogs and cats, including the different personalities.
“Alexandra was wonderful! She was very attentive and communicative and was flexible when my little guy needed to start a medication at the last minute. Would definitely ask her again!”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, and just about every small animal imaginable. I come from a family who could never turn away a hungry, hurt, or homeless pet. That love for animals shaped me into a caregiver who is not only warm and attentive, but also skilled in supporting medically complex pets. I’m confident giving medications, changing bandages, and providing specialized care. My sweet Ellie-Bean (in my photo) recently passed from cancer, and while my home is pet-free for now, my heart is always open. I cherish every chance to give animals the love, attention, and comfort they deserve. I work from home with a flexible schedule so I have the ability to be with your animal for the majority of the time they are in my care. I have a policy that I do t leave animals in my care alone for more than an hour at a time. My home has been setup to accommodate for my own animals (none in the home currently) and is fully secure and safe. Animals have free range of my home and can make themselves comfortable on the furniture if they please. I have a medium sized yard with grass and plants (all pet safe). There is a hillside in our back yard that doggies love to explore but the yard is fully fenced and secure so no escapees! For smaller animals, i can accommodate a closed door policy with no outdoor time if requested. If I am coming to your home, I will abide by whatever your house rules are!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over 10 years. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, administer basic medications, and provide loving companionship. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy pups, and pets who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I truly enjoy building trust with all animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their families are away. Pet care is already a daily part of my life. I care for my own pets every day, including chickens, so I’m very comfortable with routines, feeding schedules, and responsibility. I’m currently a nursing student working toward my BSN, which means my schedule can vary. At this time, I’m most consistently available on weekends, with early mornings annd mid day during the week. I’m flexible and open to working with pet parents’ schedules whenever possible, and if a request is something I can make work, I’m always willing to make time to ensure pets receive attentive, reliable care. Pets are truly family to me, not just animals. I care for my own pets daily and understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. In both my home and a client’s home, I follow routines closely, keep environments clean and secure, and prioritize comfort and safety. I’m attentive to behavior, feeding schedules, and individual needs, making sure each pet feels loved, respected, and stress-free.
About: With 30 years of pet care experience, I provide calm, reliable, and personalized care tailored to your pet’s routine and comfort. I offer drop-in visits, house sitting, doggy day care, playtime, quiet companionship, boarding and medication administration. I’m experienced with shy, senior, and special-needs pets and always follow your instructions closely. For clients wanting an elevated experience, I also offer luxury add-ons including dog wash services and VIP pet transportation to vet or grooming appointments. Pet sitting naturally fits into my daily life and routine. I structure my days around the pets I care for, planning visits, walks, and overnight care so each animal gets my full attention without feeling rushed. I enjoy building calm, consistent routines that help pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. I provide personalized, concierge-level pet care in a calm, secure environment. Every booking follows a detailed care routine based on your pet’s specific needs, including feeding, exercise, medications, and home protocols. I monitor behavior and well-being closely and communicate clearly with regular updates. Your pet and home are handled with professionalism, discretion, and care at all times.
“I highly recommend Beth. She took very good care of our 7 year old Golden. She provided status reports and sent pictures and asked great questions. I was very comfortable having her in our home. We will be using Beth again in the future!”

Although I am a college student ! My availability is open to any precious creature who needs care or even some attention for pet parents who aren’t able too, I am more than happy to provide that for the pet and the owner. It all depends on the clients needs, I’m able to adjust to any changes or specific requirements. Of course, if there is any concerns for the pets safety I would be willing to make accommodations in order to ensure their safety.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Winterwarm
We had such a great experience with Sean. He took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were away, and it was so nice being able to relax and not worry about how things were going at home. Sean was always on time, dependable, and left great updates and notes after each visit, which gave us total peace of mind. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring for their pets.
Samantha was amazing with our dog! He has a lot of anxiety being alone. We were on vacation and needed someone to watch him for a couple of hours. We were worried about him being in an unfamiliar place with an unfamiliar person. As soon as we met Samantha, we knew it would be okay. She is a calm and loving person and set us and our dog at ease right away. She was attentive and patient with our dog while he worked through his anxiety. She gave us frequent updates and responded quickly every time we checked in. We would definitely hire her again!
When you have never left your fur babies behind for more than a day, and all of sudden find yourself needing to leave town for nearly a week, the most important and urgent matter at hand is definitely your peace of mind just knowing that your critters are in good hands and that they're being given proper care and TLC. Well Jada here delivers just that! We have never felt more secure with anyone handling our dogs than we did this past week with this stellar Rover contact. If we could give additional stars, we 100% would, because she handled 6 dogs like she had been a part of their day-to-day routine for years! Book your trip and then book Jada, and go about your travels absolutely unbothered.
Aidrey did an amazing job with our dog Benito over the last 4 days while we were traveling. She handled drop-in visits to feed him, let him out, and take him on walks, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was well cared for. Traveling is so much easier when you can truly count on someone, and Aidrey was exactly that. I had a couple of schedule modifications come up, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating, which I really appreciated. Benito was happy, well taken care of, and clearly comfortable with her. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book her again!

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.
