“I have used Corina's help a few times already and it is always a pleasure working with her. What I like the most about Corina is that she goes the extra mile to make sure you have a peace of mind while you are away. As an example, a few raccoons came to our backyard, ate all the food & treats we left for our outdoor cat for 10 days and messed up everything. She immediately let us know about the situation, asked what brand of food and treats we usually get for our cat so she can buy those again, and made sure no food leftover is out there during her evening visits. She is so kind and caring and our cat really likes her and enjoys relaxing on her lap during the visits. Thanks a lot Corina! :)”
“Wonderful care for our two senior cats. Very responsive and flexible with timing for drop ins. Got them engaged in play and kept us up to date on feeding etc.”
“Great experience with Tingting and Willow! They took wonderful care of my cat and kept me updated throughout. I really appreciate how attentive, caring, and reliable they were. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Kerry is great as always. We were out of town for almost a month. This is the first time we leave the kitties at home for such a long time. Kerry made it very easy for us. We appreciated a lot the detailed notes she sent us every day. We could tell she loves the kitties as we do.”
“We love Jennifer and so do our cats! Jennifer is so attentive to our finicky cats. We come home and it’s like they barely knew we were gone. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“Hu-wen is easy to communicate with. He replies in a timely manner and is extremely reliable. He took good care of our cat (who is very spoiled and doesn’t like to be left alone). We received photos and updates and everything was done as agreed on. I can only recommend :)”
“We were leaving abroad for about two months. I’m very grateful to have found Weichen on Rover to take care of my cat. Weichen was very easy to communicate with and always thoughtful and considerate throughout the entire time. I really appreciated the care and attention given to my cat, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I’m very grateful for the help and would absolutely trust Weichen to take care of my cat again in the future. I highly recommend Weichen to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter on Rover.”
“Mary did a great job taking care of our cat Miss Kitty and had a lot of attention to detail while giving our cat two medications a day. She had great communication and we felt confident our cat was well taken care of while we were gone.”
“Stephanie is so approachable and her communication is top notch. Very professional! Patrick loved her and she gave him the minute he needed to warm up to the idea. Perfect experience all around. Highly recommend.”
“Courtney took care of our 3 cats during Christmas vacation. We were nervous about leaving them as they're very bonded. She took lots of photos of the cats and sent them to us. We looked forward to the photos which reassured us that they were faring well. Courtney left the house neat and we had no problems whatsoever. We appreciate the care she provided.”
“Hannah did a great job with the cats, they felt comfortable with her and she was keeping me updated via text messages. The home was kept safe and clean, it was a very positive experience and I will book Hannahs’ service again in the future. I can highly recommend her as being a caring and responsible pet and house sitter.”
“Valentina house-sat my cats for two weeks, and she was absolutely wonderful from the moment we met. She was responsive, attentive to my cats’ needs, and consistently communicative with me throughout the stay. I noticed that both of my cats were happier and more relaxed than they’ve been with any previous sitter. She also took great care of my seedlings, which were thriving when I returned, and my home was in even better condition than when I left it. I would gladly work with her again.”
“Aubrey is a fantastic sitter, and my cat adores her! She is super reliable, communicative, and easy to work with. She puts my mind at ease when I travel, and I’m so thankful to have found her. Highly recommend!!”
“I highly recommend Dana for any pet sitting needs! She was an AMAZING pet sitter for our 3 fur babies! Dana has such a calm presence, the animals just gravitate to her. Even our cat engaged with her on the first "meet and greet" visit and he normally hides from strangers. In addition, Dana was able to brush our Collie, who HATES being brushed. She truly cared for our pets as if they were her own and on top of all that, she takes great pictures (our Golden is such a ham). We looked forward to her updates and pictures each day. I know our pets will be excited to see her when we book with her again!”
“Kristen was amazing with our kitties! She is very thorough, makes sure they’re comfortable and getting the best treatment just like they would if we were home. We enjoyed hearing about each visit and getting the pictures she sent. My mind was at ease to travel knowing she was taking good care of them!”
“I cannot recommend Ashley enough! She took amazing care of our diabetic cat, Pedro, while we were away. She provided daily updates, measured his blood sugar, and gave him his insulin injections with great care. Our cat was happy and relaxed, and it was evident in his face! Thank you so much, Ashley, for your exceptional care!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Alamitos
I needed someone to come in the mornings to feed my cats. Tyler was available after my original Rover booking canceled on me at the last minute. He checked in with me before leaving each day to make sure that I didn't need anything else. I appreciated the status updates and follow-up questions to be as helpful as he could.
It was our 2nd time having Rachel take care of our cats and just like our first time, we're very happy with the care she provided for our cats. She's very fast with replies and always provided us with a good summary and photos of our cats for each visit. We're so grateful to have her as our cat sitter and highly recommend her to anyone
Maria does such a wonderful job. She goes above board does everything perfectly and cares very much about my cats and keeps me informed. I so appreciate her. I just wish this time I would’ve had a little more money for a tip, but I was a little short, so Maria to do a fabulous job thank you.
Gabriel was a wonderful cat sitter for my cat, Moushi. He was always on time and paid great attention to every detail, making sure nothing was overlooked. What I especially appreciated was the time and effort he put into earning Moushi’s trust in the beginning. He was patient and genuinely cared about making her feel comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind knowing that Moushi was in such caring and reliable hands. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable cat sitter!
Corina was awesome! She took great care of our two cats. She let us know that there were ants on our cats food and she got rid of them and even gave us a good tip to keep them at bay from the food. She also helped to unstuck our robot vacuum cleaner so the house won’t be a mess when we return. Communication was great and I would highly recommend her.
Courtney did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. She followed instructions, made sure my kitty was well-fed, and spent time playing with her. Courtney was communicative and easy to work with, and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!
Rachel did a great job taking care of our 2 cats! We had a last-minute trip come up, and she was quick to agree to watch them. One of our cats needs insulin shots twice a day, and she was comfortable giving them to him. We felt completely comfortable leaving the cats in her care and would definitely have her watch them again!
Ashley did a great job caring for our cats while we were away. She took the time to spend time with them and make sure they felt safe and comfortable around her. We felt at ease knowing that our cats are well cared for. Even my super shy anxious kitty approved of her!
I highly recommend Dana for any pet sitting needs! She was an AMAZING pet sitter for our 3 fur babies! Dana has such a calm presence, the animals just gravitate to her. Even our cat engaged with her on the first "meet and greet" visit and he normally hides from strangers. In addition, Dana was able to brush our Collie, who HATES being brushed. She truly cared for our pets as if they were her own and on top of all that, she takes great pictures (our Golden is such a ham). We looked forward to her updates and pictures each day. I know our pets will be excited to see her when we book with her again!

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 .

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.
