Important:

• Booking and paying through Rover is required per our Terms of Service.
• Never pay your sitter or dog walker by cash, this can expose you to fraud and makes your bookings ineligible for the Rover Guarantee and dedicated support.
• If you've changed your pending request to include additional dates or pets, your credit card will be charged the new rate. The previous charge for the first request will also appear on your credit card statement but will be invalid as soon as the new debit has been made.
• If you need to make changes to your booking, please contact your sitter directly. If the sitter agrees with the changes, they can edit the booking from their rover account.
