Rover Plans Pricing
Rover has NO public developer API and therefore no API pricing. This document captures Rover's actual monetization model as a two-sided pet-care marketplace: per-booking service fees charged to service providers (sitters / dog walkers) and a booking fee charged to pet owners. These are consumer marketplace fees, not API access plans. Fees vary by region, service type, and pilot programs; the figures below reflect publicly documented rates as of mid-2026 and should be confirmed in the Rover help center during reconciliation.
Rover Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Rover on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 5 plans, covering usage tiers, with named plans including Provider Service Fee (US, standard), Provider Service Fee (House Sitting), Pet Owner Booking Fee (US), California Fees, United Kingdom Fees.
Tagged areas include Pet Care, Marketplace, Service Fees, Plans, and No Public API.
Plans
Standard service fee deducted from a service provider's (sitter or dog walker) earnings on each booking in most US locations. Providers keep the remainder of the rate they set.

Reduced service fee applied to house sitting bookings in most US locations.
- House Sitting
Booking fee added at checkout on top of the provider's listed rate, paid by the pet owner. Capped per booking.

California uses a split fee model: a marketplace fee charged to providers plus a booking fee charged to pet owners.

UK providers keep a higher share of earnings than the US standard, with an even higher share on recurring services.
