About: I grew up surrounded by a variety of cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs! I love walking dogs and keeping pets entertained. I have experience boarding cats and dogs and have experience walking, feeding, and brushing. As I have recently retired from a 25+ year career, I have a flexible schedule and will work with your request. I am available during the day, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I am very respectful of my client’s space.. i am able to do drop-in visits and walks. I prefer to walk both small and large dogs in their own home. I am able to board cats. I have two of my own; while they get along well with other cats I have boarded in the past, they also have their own space if needed.
About: Local student taking a gap semester. Always took care of family and friends' dogs for days or weeks. I would listen to their owners specific instructions for things their dog needs and I would follow them. As a kid I volunteered often at a cat shelter, where I would work in a room with dozens of cats, making sure all are fed and cared for. Available weekdays before 6pm. Busy from 8 to 11:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and I can do early mornings too. I am also available weekends I can walk dogs of all kind for short or longer walks if needed. I am also available for check-ins for cats and dogs, and will follow special requests.
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, and with over 22 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, that passion has only grown. I have dogs and cats myself. Every pet I care for is treated like family — with patience, attention, and genuine love. I offer overnight stays in your home, in-home visits, and walks — tailored to whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be nerve-wracking — that's why I send photo updates throughout our time together, so you always know your best friend is happy and safe. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priority, every single time. 🐾 My schedule is flexible. I'm currently a realtor in the DMV and can work my schedule into pet sitting. I can stay at client's houses too. For overnight stays, I stay in your home to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible — same bed, same environment, same comfort. I follow their regular feeding schedule, give plenty of playtime and affection, and make sure they're never alone for long stretches. For in-home visits and walks, I come to you on the schedule that works for your pet — whether that's a quick midday potty break, a feeding visit, or a full walk to burn off energy. Each visit includes fresh water, playtime, and lots of love, tailored to your pet's personality and needs. Throughout every service, I send photo updates so you can see first hand that your pet is happy, relaxed, and well cared for — even when you're miles away. With 22+ years of experience, I've learned that every pet is different, so I always adjust my approach to match their individual routine, temperament, and comfort level.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I've watched my neighbors, family, and others' pets, making sure they are getting the top-notch care they deserve! Animals have always been a constant in my life, and I can't remember a time I didn't have any pets around. I work to build a connection with every animal I work with so that they feel comfortable until their human returns home. I've cared for pets big and small, and will always make sure owners get the updates they deserve. I am very flexible in my schedule, as I am a current college student. I have plenty of time in my day to make sure your pet is well cared for! In my home, I have a fenced-in yard with a designated dog area. I have plenty of room inside and outside so that your furry friend will feel comfortable. As for my client's home, I will make sure to understand the rules and boundaries for any animals I am caring for.
About: I'm a recent college graduate with dog walking and dog sitting experience. I have one dog of my own and I would love to help take care of your pet! I am currently walking 1 dog - an energetic pit bull. I will give your pup a long walk with lots of sniffing time (sniffs are good for preventing dementia!!) I also have experience with cats. I just love all animals! I have experience taking care of senior dogs as well, as my dog is 12 years old and needs gentle care. I am flexible and can be available when you need help :) I have a previous commitment to walk a dog at 12:30-1:30. I'm free otherwise! I love pets so I will play with yours and make sure she/he gets attention they need. I also am used to taking care of them as I have dog and am very attentive to his needs
About: I’ve been pet sitting for 5+ years for friends, family, neighbors, and clients. I absolutely love getting to know every pet’s personality! I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and cats to K9s and a 17-year-old dog who needed multiple medications and strict schedule. I also have 5 pets of my own (2 dogs and 3 cats), so I’m used to lots of love, different routines, and pets with all kinds of needs! Fun fact, I volunteer for rescue in puerto rico flying animals back to the states when I travel there. I’m currently in college, so my availability depends on my class schedule during the semester. However, when I’m home on school breaks, I’m completely available and would love to spend my time caring for pets! I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I follow each pet’s normal routine, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own home. I’m respectful of your space, careful with instructions, and happy to provide updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for!
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wolf Trap
Mary was an absolutely incredible cat sitter while we were out of town. She showed how thorough she is right from the start by asking so many great questions during our meet and greet. She took wonderful care of our two cats, making sure all of their daily needs were met while showering them with love and playtime. One of our cats is incredibly shy, but Mary managed to get her to come out and play. We will definitely hire her again in the future and highly recommend her services.
He is very reliable and response quickly. We had AC issue while we were away and he visited our house to feed our cat so we asked him to check the AC thermostat. He showed us the thermostat with his Facetime just like he did with our cat. It was helpful to confirm the thermostat was off.
Hannah took excellent care of both of our dogs, especially the older one whom she made a second trip to make sure that he was eating his meals. In addition to cleaning up after them and providing lots of snuggles with our doggos, she communicated daily and took excellent photos. Highly recommend!
We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter for our two kids (one 8 years old and one 16+ years)! Not only did Yvette take excellent care of our dogs, but she also went above and beyond to ensure we were kept updated on their well-being throughout our time away. Her thoughtful updates and attention to detail made us feel completely at ease. In addition to caring for our pets, Yvette also looked after our home, keeping everything tidy and secure so we could travel without any worries. It's rare to find someone who treats your pets like their own, cares for your house, and exceeds every expectation. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog sitter!

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.
