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. 🐾
