About: I’ve always been an animal person! I have experience taking care and cleaning up after dogs! I am high energy and able to keep up with young puppies as well! I am currently a student at UCF! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work out a plan of when you would like me to see your animals! My roommate and I each have a cat at our apartment! Taking care of and loving our kitties is my favorite responsibility! I am always thrilled to give my attention to any animal who wants it!
“Clara was wonderful! I met her beforehand to show the feeding for my cat (diff wet foods mixed together). It was a lot more work than just a single can and she was great about it! I told her she can just put the dirty dishes and empty cans in the sink. But she went out of her way to wash the dishes and dispose of the cans. I also have a weird litter system (pine pellets so it doesn’t clump) but she was great about cleaning it out and disposing of it properly. My cat was a rescue that gets really scared and lonely. But he did warm up to her and was so affectionate! It made me feel so relieved that he was well taken care of. He has separation anxiety and she made me feel at ease. Really appreciate everything she did!!”
“Audrey was amazing in every way! I didn’t worry about my pups not once. She played with them and hung out with them, that means so much to me. We will most definitely be using Audrey again.”
“Rachel is a wonderful kitty caretaker! My boyfriend and I were away for a week and a half and needed someone to come in and feed and play with our 3 cats. Over the course of that week and a half, Rachel bonded with them, cleaned up after them, and treated them like her own. We really couldn’t have asked for someone better to take care of them. They were so happy. Rachel even left a beautiful handwritten note, treats, and photos that we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you for being there for our babies, Rachel! :)”
“Seriously the best sitter ever!! This is our first time leaving our kitty with a sitter we were so nervous. Yicheng was super amazing understanding and kind to our baby. Our kitty loves playing with him so much. We really recommend him as a sitter and we will be using him in the future.”
“Mariah was amazing! She was so attentive and responsive. She took such great care of my fur babies. I felt totally relieved and comfortable on vacation knowing she was dropping in to check on them. Such a smooth and easy process!”
“Rachel was very reliable and professional. She connected very well with our cat since day 1. Our cat was calm and stress-free when we got back home. Thank you Rachel! We will definitely hire her again!”
“Shirel is super dependable and great with my boys! She communicates any changes and is great at following up with anything needed! I receive daily reports and photos of my boys and that eases my mind knowing they were taken care of. Highly recommend her :)”
“Mya was great! Will be having her back for whenever we need our kitties watched. All the cats loved her and she left a cute note and stickers of the cats :). She was amazing and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Michelle was fantastic! Our shy little guy warmed up to her quickly, which is a miracle unto itself. She kept us updated with wonderfully thorough check-in notes and photos daily.”
About: I’ve had pets for years and have grown up with animals. Ever since I was born I was joined by a grumpy maincoon and once I turned 8 I got a siberian husky. Now, years later, I have taken care of many babies, both mine and belonging to others. Along with this I also have experience working at a veterinary clinic so I know how to deal with stressed animals who simply need patience. I am available to walk your babies or come by and feed them while you are on a much needed vacation on any day that’s not Wednesday after 2 pm. I have experience taking care of cats, dogs, birds, rats, and many more I understand that animals all have different personalities and often times need an abundance of patience. I know each pet routine varies depending on their breed, needs, likes, and dislikes. I have worked with animals with medical issues so I am experienced in administering shots, giving pills, or any other medications that may be necessary for the safety and comfort of your fur baby.
“Christian was great with my kitty Oakley! This is the second time he has sat for Oakley while I was out of town, and he’s great! Very quick and timely with communication!”
“It was our first time trying out Rover for care for our senior cat, second cat, and 2 Guinea pigs and we’re very happy we went with Pamela! Pamela was very reliable and a natural with our pets. She was professional and communicative and we had full confidence our pets would do well in her hands. We will be coming back for Pamela for future pet sitting needs for sure and recommend her to anyone else looking for quality care for their pets.”
“Jin was great with our two dogs! She carried our elderly dog outside because of our two steps and she gave both of them their enrichment activities mid day to work their brains. She spent time cuddling with them too. ❤️❤️ one of our dogs is sensitive to new people and she is patient and slow with him and he loves her!”
About: Reliable and outgoing, I love animals of all sizes and shapes. From volunteering at shelters, to helping friends walk their dogs or caring for cats. I currently have a full time job, although I am available during the week days after 6pm and all weekend to play and care for your loved pets! I follow instructions very well and am detailed oriented. I like to send picture updates for extended care, or even after a one time daily walk! I’d like to make the most comfortable, easy and fun experience for owners and their pets.
“Kayla was absolutely wonderful with our two cats, Boba and Taxi! She went above and beyond, and we could tell from her updates that she genuinely cares about animals. She was so attentive and affectionate with them while we were on our cruise, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy cat sitter.”

Rachel was great, she went above and beyond to make sure our cats were taken care of. She followed all of our instructions and suggestions perfectly, and even helped with other things like bringing in mail and packages. We got photo updates every day, and the cats loved her. We will absolutely be booking with her again.
Seriously the best sitter ever!! This is our first time leaving our kitty with a sitter we were so nervous. Yicheng was super amazing understanding and kind to our baby. Our kitty loves playing with him so much. We really recommend him as a sitter and we will be using him in the future.
Rachel was fantastic with my cats. She was also patient with my one cat that needs daily meds and can be a handful. It was so great to know I had someone responsible to take care of my fur kids while on vacation. She was very communicative and sent pics daily. Wish I could give her more than 5 stars! Thank you Rachel!!!

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
