Rover is an Android application designed to connect pet owners with trusted pet sitters and dog walkers in their local area. This platform offers a vast network of carers across the U.S. and Canada.
Profiles and communication
It is worth noting that each sitter or walker has a profile that includes information about their experience, services offered, rates, and reviews from other pet owners. This allows users to make decisions when selecting a caregiver. The app simplifies booking and payment processes.
There is a built-in messaging system that allows owners and caregivers to communicate. It is possible to discuss specific pet needs, arrange meet-and-greets, and so on. There is a special chat section for this.
Caregivers can share photos and videos of pets with their owners via the app. This feature helps users ensure that their pets are happy and well-cared for.
Additional options
For dog walking services, the app offers GPS tracking. Owners may monitor their furry friends’ walk in real-time. Please note that caregivers can create and share Rover Cards with users. There is detailed information about the service provided. These cards include details such as the duration, a map of the walk, desired area, pee and poo alerts, and personalized notes.
