“It was a last minute request to Jacob because m y usual sitter had last minute plans. I was a little nervous that my dog would be shy, but was not prepared for him to not want to walk or interact at all. Jacob did get him out real quick to go to the bathroom, but he wanted to go right back in. The later visit in the day did not go any better. Jacob did the best he could, but could get Theo to warm up to him.”
About: I've taken care of a wide variety of animals my whole life. While I love all types of pets, dogs are my favorite. I have lots of experience. One of my dogs was a therapy dog within the public school system as part of a literacy program for elementary children. I have a nice fenced in backyard and live close to two pet friendly parks. My schedule is very flexible. There is always someone at home 24/7 so your furry friend will never be lonely. I can board, sit, or walk almost anytime. I have a nice fenced in backyard and live very close to two pet friendly parks. I have a very friendly corgi named Rocco to keep your fur babies company.
“Paige and Cameron are wonderful. Keira loves them and they have been accommodating and helpful to me as this was my first time using Rover. I highly recommend them.”
“Jessica is awesome and quick to communicate! She was kind and accommodating to our two elderly dogs and even came to meet us before our first booking. I felt totally at ease having her in our home while we were not there and knew she could handle all of their needs, including administering meds. We had a last minute schedule change and she was flexible. I also appreciated that she went above and beyond and cleaned their food bowls even though she came mid-day for a drop in visit and not at a feeding time. We have booked her again, this time for a full weekend, and look forward to having her back!”
“You are simply the best! Harley looks forward to drop in visits with you! Thank you for always going above and beyond and staying well past your time limit to give her some extra loving!”
“Jennifer is a wonderful caring person who took such good care of our babies. She is the epitome of attention to details, asking smart questions and being very thorough, highly recommend.”
“Nancy played with Boots which could be seen with all the toys. She even made a suggestion that was perfect in terms of Boots grooming. Job well done. She also posted photos every day. Thank you!!!!”

“Steve provides my cats with loving care while I am away. I have one cat who is difficult and can be unfriendly and he has won her over! He sends pictures of her sitting on his lap! He is always prompt and thoroughly cleans the litter box. I love the photo updates he sends while visiting with the cats - I can tell that they are well-cared for. He truly loves animals - it is very obvious from the care and attention they receive.”
“Once again Jazmyn did a great job taking care of our two kitties. She kept an eye on Punk's health and updated us at the end of the weekend. We know our kitties and our house are in good hands with Jazmyn.”
“Kelly did a great job with the drop in visits for our cat Beau! We love that she spent time with him versus just running in and out, we look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Lisa has watched Sam for several days and has taken absolutely great care of her. She communicated perfectly and send me pictures. She went out of her way to provide great service, I highly recommend her :)”
About: Hi, I’m Randy — recently retired after a 28 year career as a scientist with Merck Animal Health. I’ve spent my entire professional life dedicated to improving the health, comfort, and wellbeing of animals, and now I’m excited to continue that passion through one on one pet care. Animals have always been at the center of my world. I understand how they communicate stress, curiosity, comfort, and confidence, and I take pride in creating a calm, predictable environment where pets feel safe and understood. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs, and I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique quirks and comforts. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or somewhere in between, I meet them at their pace and make sure they feel safe and relaxed. I am recently retired, happy to have shed the rigors of corporate America and now free to enjoy life and to do what I love. I am a lifelong dog owner and strong believer in them often being man's (and women's) best friend. Cats are special to me too, I spent many years as a scientist developing new vaccines for cats.

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.
