Here at Road Trips For Families, we talk a lot about traveling with kids, but what about the furrier members of the family? Certainly there are some pets that can hop in the car and hit the road, but for many pets the best option for all parties involved is for them to stay home. Finding a quality sitter for your pets can be just as fraught as finding one for your kids (after all, people call them “fur babies” for a reason), and for many families it is a major factor in how much and how far they will travel. Luckily, there is a service for pet parents that removes all the worry and guesswork from finding excellent pet care: Rover.com

Rover.com connects pet parents with the nation’s largest network of loving and trustworthy pet sitters and dog walkers. Through Rover, pet parents can discover, book, and manage personalized care for their dogs, including pet sitting, dog walking, in-home dog boarding, and doggy day care. Founded on the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the unconditional love of a dog, Rover improves and simplifies life for pet parents and the dogs they love.
