Company Overview


Rover.com is an American company which operates an online marketplace for people to buy and sell pet care services including pet sitting, dog boarding, and dog walking. Rover.com was founded in 2011 in Seattle, Washington and is formally incorporated under the name A Place for Rover, Inc

Founded in 2011, Rover is the world’s largest network of 5-star pet sitters and dog walkers.

Whether you need in-home dog boarding, pet sitting, dog walking, or day care, Rover connects pet parents with pet care providers who’ll treat their pets like family.

Rover sitters are your rainy-day-dog-walkers. Your every-day-belly-rubbers. Your tug-of-war players. Your middle-of-the-night-pee-breakers. Because we get it—your pet is family. And when you can’t be there, you can trust us to keep your pet happy, healthy, and sweet as ever.

But it’s not just about love of pets. Rover is also an award-winning technology business committed to making pet care safe, easy, and affordable so that everyone can experience the unconditional love of a pet.

Rover.com takes a percentage of each booking made on its site, from 15-20% for dog sitting/boarding services.
