Payment Improvements with Stripe

Beginning in March 2025, we’re updating how we accept payments. This will allow pet owners to pay via PayPal and other methods based on location. This change requires existing sitters like you to resubmit your bank account information and re-verify your personal information through Stripe to ensure that you continue to receive payouts without disruption. Visit the FAQs for more information, or jump to the bottom for steps on how to resubmit your information on our updated Stripe experience.

How to resubmit your info through Stripe

FAQs

When do I need to change my payout method to Stripe?
To avoid any disruptions to getting paid, you'll need to sign back up for direct deposit through Stripe by the dates below:

Country Deadline
Netherlands Apr 9, 2025
Italy, Sweden, Norway, Germany Apr 23, 2025
France, Spain May 7, 2025

What happens if I don't resubmit my information on Stripe by the deadline? 

Failing to do so will result in disruptions to their payouts until you re-add your bank account and re-verify your personal information. 

What information do I need to provide?

You will need to provide your bank account number, and some of the information listed on your Rover account (name, email, phone number, address, and date of birth) will already be included when you sign up for Stripe. Please also review this information to make sure that the details, such as legal name, match what you would use on legal or government documents.

Will this change/impact when I’ll receive funds in my bank account? 

Your earnings will still automatically transfer to your bank account 2 days after you complete a booking. Depending on your bank, it may take a few more days to see the available funds in your bank account.
