“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Heather made my cat feel so comfortable while I was away. Every drop-in visit came with thoughtful, detailed updates explaining exactly how everything went. She also took the sweetest photos and getting those was such a highlight while I was traveling. I’m so grateful for how kind and patient she was with my cat, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs love when Kelsey comes to visit for drop-ins! Due to work schedules, some days can be longer and they need to be able to have breaks. Kelsey is our go to first choice! 💓🐶”
“Marie was wonderful with Ace while I was gone. She updated me after every drop in visit and when I came home I had the sweetest photo of my dog and hand written card from her. I would be booking again in the future!”
“Alexis did a great job taking care of Bear, I received photos and feedback from every visit and she cleaned up any debris around his area. I returned to a clean environment, it was kept as if I had been home and not left. Bear really enjoyed her visits, she cared for him as though he was her personal pet. If she is available, I would book her again for house visits for my Bear.”
About: Leave your pets with someone that cares! Our family of four love all animals. I have had several animals in my family growing up. I have a strong understanding for pets and their behavior because of raising them when I was young. I will take them at any age and I am very flexible with the schedule. I have a medium size backyard and two parks to take walks right beside me. I will be your pet’s favorite sitter. I have a flexible job and kids that love to play with pets. If you are looking to have a sitter that loves pets, that would be me! I have a fenced yard and the ability to have pets sleep inside each night. I am home during the day and night time so your pet will remain safe.
“Thank you for caring for my three elderly dogs. You were amazing. Thank you for being so patient with them, especially since two are rescues and required Incredible patience and time. You are worth every penny!! Thank you!!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was nine years old! I have pretty good understanding of how to best care for dogs and cats from small to big. I’ve also always been the “can you wash the dogs” person in my family, so if you need your dog to get a wash when I go see them, I can definitely do that too! Since I just graduated from college, I do have a more open day time schedule during the week, and my weekends have opened up a lot more. There will absolutely be no trouble with taking care of your doggos and cats week days from 11am-4pm and weekends from 12-5pm! At my house I do have a fenced in backyard, and a big neighborhood to walk the dogs through so they get thorough walk time! I also can crate your dog before I leave so they don’t run wild in the house, if you needed that!
About: I worked at a dog boarding center for a year. As well as taking care of family and friends animals before. I feel like I’ve had a way with animals since I was younger, even without trying animals seem to attract to me. I currently have a part-time job but with pretty flexible hours. In January, I start school, but it’s a hybrid schedule so it’s only three days out of the week. In my home, my pets get fed once a day but they’re on a pretty strict diet so we feed them lots of fresh meat and vitamins. They have a backyard to run free in and are constantly getting attention from me. I currently have four dogs and back home with my parents I have one dog and a cat.
About: I have a love of all dogs, I have three of my own (bichòn frisèe, beagle lab mix, and a German shepherd) so I have experience caring for dogs of all size. I am passionate about treating animals with respect and care as if they are family and helping in anyway I can. I am an active duty military member so working with dogs offers a win, win situation for the owners, pets and me. The owners get peace of mind that their furry friend(s) is well taken care of, the pets get my unconditional attention, care and love and I get an opportunity to destress ( by doing drop ins where I feed, pet and play with the dog), and exercise. I can’t wait! I work about 5 minutes away from home so I often stop by throughout the day for bathroom breaks and play time. I also have the ability to work from home. I always treat pets and homes with cars and respect. Timeliness is included in said respect so I will ensure to be on time and prompt.
“Chasidee is a great cat sitter! She is dependable and went above and beyond our expectations. Our cats loved her visits, getting love from her, and all the nice treats she gave. We will definitely be using Chasidee again and recommend her highly.”
“Jordan is the BEST doggo sitter! We exchanged information via email, and she made (is still making) it happen for our sweet girl who would otherwise have a very long day in her crate. Jordan is quick to respond, takes her care-giving seriously, and treats our space with respect. I'd say everyone should hire her, but if they did, I would have to elbow our way back into her schedule.”
About: I’ve been petsitting for my friends and neighbours since I was 12, including administering medication, cleaning messes, housekeeping, and most all other common tasks and chores. If there’s a task you need of me that I don’t have experience in, I’d be glad to learn. As of right now I’m still in school, but after graduation (end of May, roughly) I’ll be available nearly 24/7. It’ll be ideal for me not to be scheduled for boarding on Fridays, but I will, of course, if your schedule calls for it! I absolutely value the trust of my clients and the safety of their pets, and will always do everything I can for them to feel they can leave their home and the pets inside it safe and secure with me.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets for family and friends. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and giving lots of attention to dogs of different sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m currently available with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s regular routine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet safe and comfortable, provide fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and attention, and send photo updates so you know they’re doing well.
About: I grew up around animals and I truly love them! I recently moved to dfw by myself and got lonesome, so I adopted two beautiful kitties. I do still miss my dogs from back home, so I decided to sign up to hang out with your besties! I’m currently taking a leave from work and i’m not working so I would love to fill my spare time hanging with some cool furry friends! I live in an apartment with many close by parks and a car ready for the windows to be down and a doggie head hanging out in the wind! I have a covered balcony for kitty bird watching as well!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
