“Karissa was professional and lovely to our cat. We had never used Rover before and she was an excellent choice! She kept us updated with pictures and videos from her visits and was so lovely to offer to do small things for us while we were gone (grab the mail, refresh/change the litter box, etc.) we felt like we left our cat in great hands!”
“Jose provided incredible, consistent care for our sweet senior cat. He checked in on her daily for 3 weeks while we were away, paid extra attention to her cleanliness and nourishment, and provided reassuring updates and photos. We couldn’t be more grateful! Will book him again anytime :)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 which is when I got my first puppy! Family and friends have always relied on me to walk, feed and play with their furry friends as they were away for work or vacation. During my senior year in high school, my senior project was dedicated to fight animal cruelty. For 9 months, I volunteered for an animal shelter where I used to play and take care of the dogs, as well as initiated fundraisers to help local shelters. I’m currently working full time from Monday-Friday, however I can accommodate my schedule to provide the best experience for you and your furry friend! I am available from Monday-Friday starting from 5pm for drop off visits or walks/play dates. I am also available on the weekends at any time. Care for your little friend will be provided according to client’s request/directions. Only on leash walks will be provided for the safety of your pet 🙂 If allowed, we can go for dog park visits and trail walks. Prior to our walks/drop in visits, I would love to set a time to meet you and your dog, so we can familiarize with each other and provide the most comfortable experience!
“I am very happy with Jack's service. I got home and my princesses were happy and well. She had lots of patience to deal with Nina's snoring and Luna's barking out of the blue haha. Already scheduling her next stays ❤️🫶🏼🐶💝🐶”
“Karen made drop-in visits to care for my cat while I was on vacation. She came twice a day, early in the morning and again at dinnertime. She provided food, fresh water, changed the litter, and kept the areas clean. She also took away the used cans to recycle & took away the litter. The texts and photos were reassuring. I definitely recommend Karen. She was thorough and reliable.”
About: I have two dogs that i take care of often. they are my brother and sisters dogs and they play together very well and with other dogs as well. I would bring them all to play together sometimes. I have a big yard for the pups to run around in and will always be watching them. I hope you will consider using my services and I hope i can get to know you and yours pups. I think all dogs are so cute and i have grown up with dogs all around me my whole life, so watching them and taking care of them is an easy and fun task for me. I ensure good service and responsibly care for your dogs. Thanks You for considering me!
“Tracy is amazing! We’ve bee. Trying to find someone for years for our small dog who can be very fearful. He took to her immediately and loved her! Tracy truly cares and is completely trustworthy. I’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Varalee was wonderful. I felt so at ease while I was away, she cared for my 8 year old cat Poppy. excellent communication & always provided very thorough report cards of her visits. she gave my cat a lot of attention & care! I could tell that Poppy was at ease when I returned & everything was very clean when I arrived home which I appreciate. I would book again.”
About: I trained 3 service dogs for NEADS weekend puppy raiser program. All 3 dogs passed their service dog tests, 2 of them assist children with special needs and the other dog is a courthouse therapy dog. I also had a Bernese Mountain Dog for 10 years! Last year I volunteered at The Cat Connection in Boston where I cared for the shelter cats there. I am flexible on times to walk, but mornings and afternoons work best for me! Just let me know what time works best for you. I am comfortable dealing with any animal and will follow any special directions needed. Just let me know anything in particular about your animal or home that you'd like me to know.
About: I started doing rover when I was home for the summer during college. I am now working remotely and picked it back up again. I now have experience caring for over 20 different breeds of all different sizes. I will walk your dog in the morning and evening. A minimum of a few miles. I will make sure they are let out consistently for potty breaks 4-5 times daily. I live in an area that is dog friendly. The neighborhood also provides access to safe and dog friendly walking trails where I can take your pup.
“We are grateful and appreciate the care that Sally gave to our cat Sophie while we were away. We returned home to a relaxed kitty. Sophie is an old cat. We've had her for two years, and have never left her for longer than twelve hours. We would recommend Sally to anyone who has to leave their pet overnight. Sally also took the time before we even booked with Rover to determine whether the best care for Sophie would be drop in visits or care in Sally's home. The decision was drop in care. Thank you Sally.”
About: I have always loved animals and grown up with them. I have experience with all species of animals and many breeds. I currently have a very friendly and lazy rescue pit of my own. I am reliable and flexible and would love to help care for you fur babies. I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes and have a vehicle large enough for most dogs (a Ford Escape for reference). I am understanding of people’s beeds and changing schedules so you never have to worry if something comes up or changes. I have a pretty free schedule and love going on walks. I also have experience with cats, small pets, and farm animal such as cows or horses. Willing to work with all. Thank you. I work as a farmhand and knitting instructor for children. I’m very lucky that this allows me many open hours. I am available Tuesdays after 2; Wednesdays prior to 130 Thursdays prior to 130; Fridays prior to 1. I am also available for evening after 6 on all weekdays. I am willing to do occasional weekends. I will not be offering my own home for care due to stress on my own animals. I am willing to do check ins at a clients house.
About: I have been taking care of all different kinds of animals all my life. From dogs, cats, fish, hamster, etc.... I am now a military spouse following my husband around with our cat daughter. I do have a military id so don't worry if you live on a base I have access. I do stop by for a quick hello and check on your babies make sure they are good and don't need anything to staying and playing with them for at least 30 mins. or if you are just needing someone to get them out of the house for a little walk during the day. I currently do not have any children so any and all fur babies I will love like they are my own child. I am currently a stay-at-home wife, so I am generally available anytime during the weekday. So, I am going to use this in my free time to be able to get me out of the house for a little bit during the day. When I come to your house to check in on your baby/babies or even to take them for a walk as long as you tell me what they can and can't do for the most part (sitting on the furniture) or an idea of their schedule that will help me make them feel the less stressed out the best.

By staying at your place, I minimize your dog’s anxiety. I provide dedicated overnight care, plenty of playtime, and frequent updates so you feel connected.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Yarmouth
Leaving my very elderly (22 yrs. old) kitty is difficult to do but Sheila made the whole process seamless. She was prompt in responding to all messages, left very detailed goings-ons of her visits and even saw how much my cat loved treats and bought some at the store for her. Above and beyond! My kitty took right to her - climbing on her lap which is not an ordinary habit of hers. I was able to relax knowing she was in such capable, loving hands. Thanks again Sheila! You are a ⭐️. I will not hesitate to contact you again.
Jose was fantastic! He came to my home a few days before my travel to meet the kitties and learn how to give my diabetic kitty a shot. He was able to give the shot that first night, and was great at administering it while I was away. He was super communicative and clearly loves kitties! He also left my home spotless. I highly recommend him and will continue to book with him in the future!
I highly recommend Stefanie! I have used her several times now and she is my first choice to look in on my cat in my absence. She responds quickly and can handle some last minute requests. She is trustworthy and reliable, and I endorse her without reservation. She’s the best!

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.
