“Elizabeth did a great job! One of my dogs is a bit of a diva since we moved to a new house but Elizabeth took it all and stride and did her best to communicate and accommodate. I appreciate her taking care of my kiddos!”
“Carolyn did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, and followed instructions perfectly. She even left a light on for me when I returned home late tonight, which was a pleasant surprise!! Would definitely recommend!!”
“Second time i had Emily do check ins for my girls while we were away, and based on the pictures, safe to say they enjoy Emily! They are always cheerful, and i come home to a clean mess free home and no accidents :) So i know emily truly takes time and care for them while she stops in. She will be my go to every time!”
“Mark is fantastic with our shy cat! This is a repeat booking for us and will not be our last! We highly recommend Mark for his consistent and thorough communication, his ability to bond with our very stranger-leery cat, and the care and attention that he provides to her during his visits!”
“Tiffany has been nothing but amazing with my baby KANE!!! As a Nurse I have long shifts on the weekends and with Kane being a new member of my family I was super nervous about drop ins and strangers but Tiffany has eased all of the anxiety I had. I lost my mom in December and Kane was a gift from my son to keep me occupied so I won’t be so lonley and sad, I appreciate Tiffany for always being available for Kane just like I was always available for my mom. Thanks TIFFANY💜💜💜💜💜💜”
About: I have had dogs and cats for all my life, and have cared for them for others for over 12 years. From kittens/puppies to seniors, I can care for them all! I will be your fur baby’s new best friend (other than you of course! 😁) in no time! I currently work on my own flexible schedule, so it is easy for me to fit your needs in! Just let me know what you are looking for and I will do my best to accommodate! I will be as attentive to your fur baby’s as you need me to be. I will play with them, walk them and make sure they are getting food, water and treats (if those are okay!). I can also provide crating up to one large breed dog, and have spare leashes and brushes. I have two kitty backpacks if I ever need to transfer them without a leash. I know dog and cats CPR, and have several veterinary connections nearby for quick service if that is ever needed.
About: I’ve ran my own pet sitting business for the last 6 years at my home and have enjoyed it! I absolutely love animals and am ready to give back to the Harrisonburg community by helping pets in need of care and extra love!! Although I have a busy schedule, I available most days in the evening for dog walking! I walk everyday after work and would love to have some furry company. I have a fenced in yard, and live in a neighborhood where I can care for your pet and give them the exercise they need. There are lots of paths and parks nearby!
“Sarah is wonderful!! This was our first time with rover.com and she made us extremely comfortable. She stayed in touch before, during & after her visit. We highly recommend her services!!! Jeff”
“The eptomie of professionalism and practicle application, We couldn't be more pleased with our choice of sitters for our little beast, Thank you J. He is a better dog because of you!”
About: I have 15+ years of experience taking care of dogs and I own one myself. I have a 6 year old female shih-tzu. She is family to me and I know how scary it can be to leave your dog in the hands of someone else so I promise to take care of your dog as if they were one of my own. I specialize in taking care of small and medium dogs but I have experience working with large dogs as well. I also have worked with dogs of all ages and multiple dogs at once. Feel free to message me if you have any with questions! While I can’t be with your pet 24/7 due to my own personal circumstances, I do have plenty of time to spare and can be flexible with my schedule. I don’t offer pet care in my home but I do offer pet care in your home. To care for your pet I will follow the instructions you provide for me.
About: I'm a life-long dog lover that will provide great care to your dog! I live in a great pet-friendly neighborhood, with a dog park nearby. My family has always had dogs, growing up - so I'm very comfortable around them. If I'm house sitting, know that your dog and I will be taking several walks to get some exercise and having many playing sessions! Also, I don't think I've met one dog that didn't like me :). Hope to hear from you soon and I look forward to meeting your dog!
“Janini was fantastic!! She did a daily visit/walk. She showed up when she said she would and was in great communication for the 5 days she took care of my dog. I would highly recommend her!!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woods Acres
Liz is such a great cat sitter - we always have zero stress when she’s taking care of our cats. We have booked Liz many times and always have had a great experience. Also, one of our cats isn’t super social but always seems to enjoy Liz! She’s definitely great with all animals.
Riley is AWESOME! After about 10 minutes during the meet and greet, our doggy, Honey, had her new best friend! Riley was available on fairly short notice even on holidays that are hard to find someone. She was on time for each drop-in and even transported Honey for us. It’s clear she loves dogs and they love her. Thank you, Riley!!

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.
