“Catherine was wonderful. She made me feel so at ease. She sent updates and photos at each visit. She was kind when I accidentally booked for the wrong time, and was flexible to return later even though it was clearly my error. Will definitely request to book with her again!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog at home knowing Diane would be taking care of her. Diane came to my house 3 times a day and always sent a notification. I would definitely use Diane again to look after my pet.”
“This was my first time hiring a pet sitter for my cat Ajax, and after reading the reviews from people who've used Vivian as their sitter and seeing that she lived close by and met Vivian in person, I felt so comfortable and at ease with her as a sitter. Vivian took pictures and gave updates every day that she took care of Ajax. I highly recommend hiring Vivian to sit for your pet! Thank you!”
“Jenna did a great job with my two cats. They are quite shy and go into hiding when anyone comes to the house. It took some time but by the end Ricky was greeting Jenna and getting some pets. Can't give a better endorsement than that! I had an accident while on vacation and needed help for about 5 weeks longer than planned which Jenna was able to do. That was extremely helpful. I would definitely use Jenna again an highly recommend her.”
“Yanya did a great job caring for and playing with Maggie Mae. She was very patient and caring. When she noticed that Maggie had an injury she called me immediately and waited for instructions.”
“Ross was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared a lot about my pet’s well-being. I appreciated the regular updates and the attention to detail—everything was handled exactly as requested. I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in good hands.”
About: I've had a pet since the day I was brought home from the hospital as a newborn. I grew up with dogs, and have been a cat parents for almost a decade. Besides my love of both cats and dogs, I've been an equestrian since I was ten, and have experience with horses, goats, sheep, chickens, and ducks. I work from home, so I can be flexible with my schedule! I'm able to stop in during the mornings, often in the afternoon depending on my meeting schedule, and evenings as well.

It's all about patience, building trust, and building a relationship.

“Aubree did a fantastic job with our two doggies. She was able to come out on the same day we contacted her and saved us a long drive back to our place and back to our event while we were on vacation to give our pups a potty break. Highly recommend her if you are staying at the Massanutten resort.”

About: Caring for animals has never been just a job for me, it's something I genuinely love. Over the years I've cared for pets and animals in many settings, from shelters, to nature centers, and private homes. Each experience has taught me how deeply animals and pets rely on trust, patience, and kindness. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sitting quietly beside a shy pet. I make it my goal to give them the same love and comfort they'd get from their own family. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine, and I prioritize it alongside my professional goals. While I am currently seeking full-time employment, I remain committed to providing consistent and reliable care for the pets I look after. I structure my schedule to ensure that feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins are never compromised. When caring for pet stays in my home, I make sure they feel comfortable and safe in a clean, pet-friendly environment. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while keeping routines consistent with what they're use to. When caring for pets in clients homes, I respect both the pet's routine and the clients space. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to medications, while keeping the home tidy, and secure. I focus on making pets feel at ease while their owners are away by maintain their normal environment and daily habits.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 460 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Zenda. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

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.
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.
