Troubleshooting

How to fix Rover not working

Rover is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach rover.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

Force quit the Rover app
If the app hangs on the loading screen or a booking page, close it from the app switcher and reopen it. On iPhone, open the app switcher and swipe the Rover card away; on Android, open Recents and swipe the app away.
Update the Rover app
Open the App Store or Google Play and check the Rover listing for an update; if the button says Open, you already have the latest version. Install the update, then reopen the app.
Try Rover in a private window
Open the site in a private browsing window; if it loads, clear cookies and site data for rover.com in your browser's site settings and sign in again. In Chrome, go to chrome://settings/content/all, search the domain, and delete its data.
Clear app storage or reinstall
On Android, open Settings > Apps > Rover > Storage & cache and tap Clear storage, then sign in again; if the app still fails, uninstall it and install it from Google Play. On iPhone, delete the app and reinstall it from the App Store.

While it is down

While Rover is down: what to use instead

Wag! Use it for a dog walk or drop-in visit when you need a sitter on short notice and the app is working.
PetSmart PetsHotel Book boarding or daycare at a store if you need overnight care and can handle a drop-off and pickup.
A local boarding kennel Call nearby kennels for a stay when you want a staffed desk and a set drop-off time.
Your regular vet Call the clinic for a referral to a sitter or kennel when your pet has medical needs and you want a known contact.

About

What happens when Rover goes down

Rover is a US pet care marketplace on rover.com. Owners use it to find and book sitters, dog walkers, boarding, and daycare, so an outage interrupts the booking flow, owner-sitter messages, and the care details you check before a walk or stay.

Search and sitter profiles can fail first, leaving blank photos or a stalled availability check. Messages then stop sending, so owners and sitters cannot confirm a walk or stay; the booking flow may break at date selection or payment. Some problems stay partial. Browsing can work while checkout or messaging is down, and reports can cluster by region or app.

Questions

Rover FAQ

Is Rover down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for Rover are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Those reports are sent by users to a public outage-reporting service; the status comes only from them, and this site does not monitor services or collect reports itself. If the app or website fails on both Wi-Fi and cellular, check for an app update and try a different browser or device. If it fails only on your home Wi-Fi while other sites load, the problem is likely on your side.

My Rover booking request is still pending. What should I do?

A request stays pending until the sitter responds, and the booking is not confirmed until they accept. Open Messages to see replies, then check the booking under your profile. If the dates are close, message the sitter or cancel the request and pick someone else.

Why was my Rover payment declined when I tried to book?

A declined card can come from your bank blocking an online charge or a billing address that does not match the card. Try another card and check the billing address before you send the request again. If the charge still fails, call your bank and ask about the card's online purchase rules.

The Rover app keeps crashing when I upload pet photos. How can I fix it?

Large photos and a weak connection are common triggers for upload crashes, so try one photo at a time or a smaller file. On iPhone, check Settings > Rover > Photos for full access; on Android, check the app's storage and camera permissions. If it still closes, update the app or use the website to add the photos.

Why can't I message my Rover sitter in the app?

Messaging usually runs through the booking, so open the confirmed booking and use the Message button there instead of the general inbox. If messages fail on Wi-Fi, switch to cellular; if they fail on both, sign out and back in and try the website. If the thread still won't send, open the booking on the website and message from there.

How we track Rover

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Rover, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Rover, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Rover doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
