“Very professional and great with our dogs. She’s also very confident around our dogs, which is very important to us, because we have two active breeds. We definitely recommend Frances for all Rover services 👍.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since the age of sixteen. Family members and friends have trusted me in taking care of their fur babies when needed. I work full-time during the week, but my weekends are flexible for care Friday through Sunday. I’m available if needed for pop in’s or walks during the week in the evenings. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs that would love to play. Also, if you prefer to keep your fur baby crated I can do that for you.
“Brenda did a great job taking care of our 3 cats with special dietary and medical needs while we were gone. She sent photo updates with each visit and did a great job keeping us updated on their well being. We will definitely book her again in the future and I would recommend her to anyone else.”
“Ashleigh helped us out last minute when we needed to go away for the weekend. She came over to feed and check on our two cats and we were so happy with her help! She sent us very detailed updates and pictures and even let us know when our AC was not working so we were able to get it fixed for our babies to stay cool. Our kitties were happy and full when we came home . We were so happy to have her help and will be reaching out to her again in the future. Thank you Ashleigh!”
“Kyle was amazing! He provided drop ins for my 3 dogs while I was out of town with only a few days notice. He was willing to stop by for a meet and greet a few days before I left so I was able to walk through their routine with him. He also sent several pictures of my dogs during his check ins. Honestly, some of the best pictures I have of them and they always looked so happy in each of them. Will definitely be booking again.”
“Michelle is great! Highly recommend her. Our dogs are very happy when we get home. She attends to details with them we know, and they’re very well adjusted when we get home.”
About: Hello there! My name is Sofía, and I can’t wait to care of your pet! Here are some things you should know about me : I have one dog living with me. I have volunteered at animal shelters, wildlife rescue facilities, and animal therapy organizations. When volunteering at shelters, I bathed dogs, cleaned up their poop, played with, and walked them as well as played with cats. Additionally, I enjoy outdoor activities very much, so I am definitely in shape to walk your dogs and play with them. I hope I can be of service to you and your dog(s). My backyard is unfenced, except for the patio area and a room sized square for dogs to pee/poop in. Dogs are not allowed on furniture, but they can be on the bed if they stay on top of the blanket. If you know your dog won’t run away, we can play in the unfenced area of the backyard :) I do have a 30 ft leash that I normally use to play with my dog outside. I’m free most of the time. I just need more advanced notice if it is an overnight stay over just a drop in at your home. I will care for your pets however is needed and instructed. I have taken care of multiple senior dogs and dogs that take oral medication.
About: Hi my name is Arianna. I have experience as a veterinary technician, dog training, grooming experience, and canine behavior experience. I am familiar with a lot if different dog and cat breeds and love all animals! I can also help with socializing, leash manners/dog training, and have experience with administering medication for diabetic dogs as well. I also provide additional services such as anal gland expressions, bathing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, insulin shots, subcutaneous fluid administration, administering medications, and training. I am pretty flexible and have no problem working with dogs that have behavioral issues. I love all animals and can't wait to meet some new fur babies! I currently work remotely so I am available all day or for overnight visits if needed! I also provide walks, training, and basic grooming services. At the moment I do prefer to care for each animal in the clients home since I live in an RV. I also provide lots of pictures and plenty of updates!
“Kylee was amazing with our Great Pyrenees Ghost! We had to be away for a night and she was able to come and let him out for us, play with him and feed him while we were gone. It was so convenient and ghost loves her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already plan my days around feeding, walking, and checking on animals. I make time in the morning, afternoon, and evening for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and updates for owners. I stay organized so every pet gets attention and care throughout the day. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean space, fresh water, regular meals, and lots of attention. I follow the owner’s rules for feeding schedules, crate time, or training. In a client’s home, I keep their pet in their normal routine. I walk them, give them food and water, play with them, and send updates so owners know their pet is safe and happy.
“Kristina was awesome and went above and beyond! She cared for each of my dogs individually, one is very elderly and the other very energetic. She provided thoughtful updates and cute pics. Will definitely be calling her again!”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for pets is something I truly love. I have over 10 years of experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve dog-sat many times for friends and families, including caring for multiple pets in one home for weeks at a time (3 dogs and 4 cats). I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with senior and special-needs pets. I once cared for an elderly German Shepherd whose back legs no longer worked. I helped with mobility, hygiene, feeding, and cleanup, and made sure she stayed comfortable and loved. This experience taught me patience, compassion, and how important gentle care is for older pets. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to give pet parents peace of mind through reliable, attentive care. I work part-time at a restaurant, so my schedule is very flexible. On days I am not working, I am available to stay with pets all day and provide overnight care. On the days that I do work, my shifts are typically about 5 hours long, which still allows me time to care for pets before and after work. If I am scheduled for a double shift, I have a 1-hour break in between, which I can use to check in on pets, walk them, and make sure they are comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize making sure pets are not left alone for long periods and maintain a consistent care routine. When caring for pets, my top priority is creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and house rules to ensure consistency for the pet. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime, and maintain a clean environment including food areas and litter boxes. I take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace, especially those who may be shy or anxious. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel completely at ease while they’re away.
About: I'm a local Austinite who grew up always having a dog in the house and currently have three dogs who spend their days hiking through the greenbelt and exploring the great outdoors. I've had extensive experience dogsitting with dogs of all shapes and sizes and have no problem with multiple, long walks each day to make sure the dog is getting the appropriate amount of exercise. I have also volunteered many hours for Austin Pets Alive and fully support their mission to help the struggling animals in our city. Whether you have a big dog who needs to be tuckered out while you're away at work or a little pup who just needs to be let out and given some quality attention, I'd be happy to help!
About: I have owned a dog my entire life, worked in a veterinary clinic, and was a service dog raiser for 3.5 years while getting my Animal Science degree. My friends and family also trust me to sit their dogs when they are away. I am currently unemployed so have a lot of availability during the week. I am usually busy on weekends but have some availabile at times. I will stay in a home with a pet, or bring a pet into my home. The home visits can include walking, feeding, playing, and other requests!
About: My family had multiple dogs growing up. My favorite (obviously) are my last dogs, Latte & Coco! I’m experienced in caring for dogs of all ages, including bathing, feeding, walking, and belly rubs! I am a stay at home mom, my daughters are 1 and 2yo. We’re open to caring for HIGHLY house trained and baby friendly doggies. Daytime walks would include strollers, so please let me know if your dog won’t be okay with that. My schedule will always be updated to when I am completely available and have lots of free time to give your pup all the attention they will need during their stay. No pets on the furniture 😉 I have a spacious living area for your dog/cat to roam. They will also have time to play outside on my patio or in the field behind my home. (Varies by pet needs)
“Valerie has been so wonderful with our dog! She is a rescue who can be timid around new people. Valerie has been accommodating and patient and now they are become fast friends! She has also been flexible and responsive to requests and schedule changes. This is our first Rover experience and we would recommend Valerie to any pet parent!”

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.
