Welcome. You’re in the right place. This is a free, real-world Rover guide built from actual experience—not theory, not hype. Everything you need to start (or fix) your Rover setup is here. 👉 Step 1: Introduce Yourself First, head to the Q&A Community Chat and make a short intro post: - Who you are - Where you’re located - Where you’re at on Rover (brand new, stuck, or already booking) This keeps the community human and moving. 👉 Step 2: Go to the Classroom & Start Part 1 Next, click Classroom and start: Rover Field Manual — Part 1 This covers: - Whether Rover actually makes sense for you - What types of dogs you should (and should not) accept - How your home, schedule, and life set your limits Take your time here. This part saves people a lot of mistakes. 👉 Step 3: Post Your Dog & Setup Plan After finishing Part 1, make a second post in the community sharing: - The types of dogs you plan to accept - Your setup (apartment, yard, acreage, other dogs, etc.) 🔓 Unlocking Part 2 Once you’ve made those two posts, you’ll naturally pick up a few likes from the community. That’s what unlocks Rover Field Manual — Part 2. It usually happens pretty quickly, though it may not be instant. Part 2 is where things get real: - Your Rover profile that actually gets booked - Owner communication & meet-and-greets - First stays, drop-offs, and mistakes to avoid - Scaling, limits, and what’s next Final Note No perfection required. Just participate, be honest, and do the work. Welcome to the pack. Come on — let’s go. 🐾
