“Jennifer was awesome! She followed all instructions, had great communication, always provided updates, and gave extra love to our pets. We have one special needs kitty who requires extra care (which can be challenging at times)—Jennifer went above and beyond with her! We felt very comfortable leaving our pets in Jennifer’s hands. We already have her booked for future dates!”

“Tiffany was wonderful! From the initial meet-and-greet through our time away, Tiffany was responsive and dependable. Our cat Cashew was happy and well cared for, and we got tons of pictures over the week that we were gone. It was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience. We wouldn't hesitate to have Tiffany watch Cashew again!”

About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so I will be sure to send you detailed updates and photos. I have a 7-year-old blue Pitbull of my own, who has taught me so much about caring for and understanding dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have spent plenty of time caring for dogs of friends and family. Some of the different breeds I’ve taken care of are bichon frisé, English bulldog, black lab, chihuahua, miniature golden-doodle, labradoodle, dachshunds, beagles and many more! I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I know that every dog is unique, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes each pup happy and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, lots of playtime, a little extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and any special instructions so they can have the best experience possible. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a sitter. ❤️🐶 Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times. This allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve rather than trying to fit them into a busy work schedule. I’m flexible with walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. I understand that every pet and family has different needs, so I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule and make things as easy and stress-free as possible for you and your pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and making sure every pet feels comfortable in their own environment. I’m happy to care for pets in their home, where they can stay in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routine. Before each stay, I’ll take the time to learn about your pet’s personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, favorite activities, and any special instructions. I’ll make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure and will always be mindful of your pet’s safety. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a beloved member of your family. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: I have had 3 rescue dogs and 3 rescue cats over the past 30 years. I have dealt with all ages and various medical conditions. In addition, I have continuously watched dogs for my family and friends. For several years I also volunteered for Animal Friends, walking dogs and doing cat socialization. I work a full time job, Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. I have plenty of availability weekday evenings. The weekends I am available from 7am to 10pm. I treat your home and your furry family members with the utmost respect and care. During my visits, I ensure your pet stays strictly on their familiar routine to minimize any stress or anxiety. I keep a watchful eye on their behavior, ensuring they don't chew on anything hazardous and stay safe while exploring the yard or going on walks. Your home's security is vital to me, so I double-check locks every time I enter or leave. In the rare event of an issue, I am fully prepared to contact your preferred veterinarian and coordinate with Rover's 24/7 support team immediately.

About: I have been caring for animals of many species all of my life from dog and cats to horses and snakes, frogs, birds and everything in between. Pet care has been my career. I have worked with animals of all ages and abilities and can provide specialized care for animals who need it. In addition to my animal husbandry experience I am also an accredited fear free dog trainer, so I am willing to care for dogs with behavioral issues and I can provide enrichment during visits. I work part time as a dog trainer and part time as a pet sitter, most of my availability for pet sitting is during the daytime and weekdays. Safety is my utmost priority when it comes to my clients pets. I use fear free techniques while engaging with pets and I always double check to make sure pets are secured in their gear while walking and back in their home upon return. I am vigilant on walks to keep distance from hazards and triggers for reactive dogs.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who has a family dog on the other side of the state! I have over 7 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, ranging from 3-month-old puppies to sweet senior dogs who want more love than play time. For the past 4 years, I’ve been trusted to walk, drop in, and house-sit for multiple families/friends, providing attentive, loving care while keeping their homes safe and clean. Whether it’s a nice day/evening walk, an overnight stay, or a drop-in visit for a couple of hours during the day, I make sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, safe, and entertained. I love going for walks, playing fetch, playing with toys, and giving them all the attention they deserve and need! If your dog loves to lounge and cuddle while watching TV, they'll become a fan of reality TV pretty quickly. In addition to pet care while house-sitting, I will gladly water your plants, bring in and sort mail, and ensure your home stays clean and cared for while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like my own as I watch them, and your home will be cared for like it is my own. I currently work FT in health care, which only requires 3 days of work a week! While my work days vary week to week, I am a home body the other 4 days of the week so your pets will feel loved and cared for while you’re gone! Since I just bought my house, I am currently not offering boarding in my own home; however, I would be glad to stay over at your place (when available) and care for your pets! If you don’t have a yard, no problem! I will gladly take them for walks around the neighborhood and make sure their needs are met. If your pet needs a drop-in visit for love during the day, we can spend time playing, cuddling, eating some treats (if applicable), and take a bathroom break or two!

About: I have had 3 dogs of my own! An Australian Cattle Dog Mix, a Basenji mix, and a working line large breed German Shepherd, which I helped train in obedience to be an SD. My dogs always had scheduled potty breaks and playtime. My job is to make sure your pet has the best time while keeping boundaries/respecting their space, ensuring their safety, and following your expectations of care. I am comfortable with any amount of shedding and the size of your pet. I can especially ease my interaction with pets that are scared and anxious, as through training my own dog, I am better at picking up the dog’s body language and only engage in physical contact if the pet’s body language consents. If you have an aggressive pet, please notify me beforehand. I do not guarantee I will agree to care for them, but I am interested in scheduling a first meeting if possible. Note: I do not drink/smoke, so your loved one will never be affected by second-hand smoke or inappropriate behavior. I am very available on the weekends and by the afternoon on weekdays. If you need morning care, please reach out and I will see if I can accommodate! My pets are routinely groomed and freshened. Everytime they come inside after heavy play, I clean their body from head to toe with pet friendly wipes. I use a brush that helps with shedding and smoothing out hair. Their teeth gets brushed every 2 weeks. I check their ears for dirt routinely and the inside of their paws for any injuries or cracking from dryness.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, having been born into a family with two dogs and two cats. For the past 15 years, I’ve been pet sitting on and off, even as a kid, when my friends were babysitting children, I always chose to pet sit! I truly believe every animal has their own unique personality, and I have never met a pet I didn't like. I even adopted my own animals while living abroad in Ghana, and while they can be a bit "evil" sometimes, I love them entirely! I know how to appreciate and care for pets with all kinds of quirks, boundaries, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs at all stages of life, from energetic kittens and puppies to seniors needing gentle care. Drawing on my background in medical school, I am highly comfortable and capable when it comes to safely administering animal medications. Most importantly, I will strictly adhere to your pet's schedule, diet, and daily routine to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I have reliable transportation and a huge heart! Can’t wait to meet your fury family! Pet sitting is my main focus, giving me full-time flexibility and open availability to dedicate entirely to your pets. Because I have an open schedule, I can seamlessly adapt to your pet's exact daily rhythm, whether they need early morning walks, strict mid-day medication times, frequent potty breaks, or simply quality companionship throughout the day. Your routine is my routine. Integrity, trust, and clear communication are the foundation of how I care for your home and pets. My top priority is giving you complete peace of mind while ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and deeply loved. I treat every home with utmost respect, leaving it spotless and exactly as found (or better, handling any senior pet accidents immediately and thoroughly). Experienced with walks, bathing, feeding, medication administration, potty breaks, and plenty of affection. I customize communication to your style, sending daily photo updates and detailed check-ins if you like to stay in the loop, or keeping it quiet and simply handling everything so you can fully disconnect.

About: Since I was born, I have had dogs and cats around me. I have delivered cats and dogs when living on a farm, and taken care of them my whole life. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, as well as reactive and rescue animals. Although I do not currently have any pets of my own, I often am the friend who pet sits because of my love for animals. I would love to eventually get my own animal, but I am not currently in the financial situation to provide the life for an animal that it deserves, so this is a fun way for me to be around animals! I work remote, so I have very open flexibility. I am the go-to friend when going out of town and needing someone to care for your baby. I am easily able to work on the go, and can even work from your own home if needed. As well, I am a graduate student, but I only have classes in the evening. Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to visit your pet in their own home, and take them out regularly for walks and bathroom breaks. In my own home, I do not currently have any pets, but I have a pet friendly home and a large fenced in back yard. I am comfortable being in a client's home and taking their dogs around their neighborhoods. Because of my housing situation, I offer boarding services. I have lots of space for big dogs, and my backyard creates a safe space for reactive dogs to get some energy out without other people or dogs around.

About: I’m your cat’s favorite drop-in human. I’ll take care of the essentials (food, water, scoop), stick to your routine, and give your cat the kind of attention they want: playtime, affection, or calm company. Every visit includes photo/video updates and a short, unique summary. I am currently working remotely, and out and about a lot on my way to one of my many activities. I am available for flexible drop-in visit windows throughout the day or week, depending on what's needed. I primarily provide drop-in visits but am open to an overnight once a healthy and happy relationship is established. I do not provide boarding at my residence.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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 .

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 .

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.

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.
