“Gillian did the BEST JOB taking care of our 3 babies - one of which was post surgery. The cats loved her and she made them feel so comfortable. I left her mountains of instructions and she followed them to a T without any complaints. She would message me with any questions and was super attentive. We will most definitely be using her services for as long as we can. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter :)”
“Cassandra is the best! She took care of our rabbit for a week and we loved her detailed updates and photos. She responded very quickly when I initially reached out to her and set up a meet and greet right away. Rabbits can be fickle creatures but our bunny warmed up quickly to her. He even did a binky when she came which in the rabbit world is the highest praise you can get! Cassandra is so patient and kind no matter what animal you have they will love her!”
“Cathy was fantastic with our kitty! She took as many pictures as she was able (sometimes our cat is recluse) and she communicated very well. I would definitely recommend her!”
“This was our third time Jack came over to our house while we were away to check on our cats. Even with our multiple prescription foods and insulin needs, he does a great job taking care of them. Thanks so much! We know our three kids are in good hands when we're away”
“Kim is AMAZING. I literally cannot understate how great she was with Bernie and I will be returning next time we go on vacation. Tons of pictures and it truly made us happy to see that he was having a great time while we were away.”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 10 years old and babysitting since I was 13 years old. I have had pets my whole life and have gained the nickname Dr. Doolittle because of how good I am with all types of animals! I have always been a natural at caretaking for animals and kids. I have experience working with behavioral and nervous dogs as well as all sizes of dogs. I am currently a full-time graduate student studying special education and literacy. On weekdays I am student-teaching during school day hours (7am-3pm) and on weekends I am typically busy doing homework! Over the summer I work as a teaching assistant where my hours are 8:30am-2:30pm on weekdays. On the weekends I am able to spend the majority of the time caring for pets, often hanging out with them and doing homework, and taking breaks to play and go on walks! During the week while I am working I am able to stop in for walks and feeding after work and class. When caring for pets in a clients home I am always sure that I know where everything I may need is located in the home including food, treats, collars, leashes, potty bags, kitty litter, scoops, etc. I also am sure to check in with clients so I know what areas of the home are totally off limits and what is allowed (for me and the pets!). I always do my best to create an environment for pets so that they feel safe and comfortable with me in their home so that they know they can trust me!
“Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter! She sent us pictures every day, gave our cats so much love and attention, and made sure they had plenty of fun and playtime. She even bought them a new toy, which was such a thoughtful surprise! Her communication was excellent, and she always responded promptly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were happy, loved, and well cared for while we were away. I highly recommend her!”
“Katie is so awesome! She went above and beyond to befriend our grumpy old man of a cat, was very thorough at every drop-in, and just a lovely person all around. Highly recommend booking with her!”
About: I've been walking dogs since I was 12 years old, of various sizes, behaviors, and energy levels. I also attended an Agricultural High School and learned 1 year of dog training and 2 years of dog grooming in high school. The past job I worked at was a dog daycare for a seasonal job. Then had side jobs where I walked other people's dogs and babysat cats I currently have 1 dog, 2 cats, and 2 reptiles that I care for. One of my cats is an adult, and the other is a kitten. I am a recent college graduate, and my only routine is waking up at 6 am to take my roommate to school at 7 am. Then picking my roommate up from school at 3:15pm. Otherwise, just looking for jobs. I have a fenced-in yard, and the pet would be supervised and never left alone. If they need to be left alone, there is a small room and a crate to protect them from getting into anything when unsupervised. I am the type of person who worries about the animal's health and will always let the owner know if I notice anything abnormal with the pet.
“Emily was excellent with our two cats. She stopped by twice before our trip to meet our cats and go over their needs. She stayed overnight with them for two nights, giving them plenty of attention and being very communicative about the cats receiving their medication, including sharing photos. Emily was great, and we highly recommend her; we plan to hire her again for our next trip.”
About: I’m a good dog walker and can play with them and feed them too. I’ll make sure they are treated right and feel safe around me. I’m around and free whenever possible to take care for pets for friends and family if they need it. I treat them as family and make sure they have fun too I will make sure they are on a leash when we go for walks outside of the house. Won’t leave doors open and make sure to car them if needed too.
“Amby is absolutely amazing! She exceeded every expectation we had and cared for our feline fur kiddos with genuine love and professionalism. Our fur kiddos have extensive needs—medications, special feeding routines, and a fair bit of sanitation work—and Amby handled it all with ease and care. She kept us updated with photos during every visit, which brought so much peace of mind while we were away. Our fur kiddos were well-loved and looked after. We are so grateful to have found her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and thorough pet sitter!”
“My cats tend to ignore me for a day or two after a trip because they’re frustrated that I left in the first place. But I came home this time to two happy, cuddly cats and I know that’s because Jillian took great care of them. She was also super responsive and kind during our communication about the visits as well. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Dakota is a great find. She showed kindness, love, and care to our cat. We knew that Miso was safe in her care. Her communication was excellent. We definitely recommend wholeheartedly.”
About: I have owned and taken care of my own cats and dogs my whole life. I have also worked on a dairy farm. So I’m able to work with larger pets too. I’m available during the day 8am-10pm,I can make an exception to nights if you looking for a vacation sitter. I’m open to all type is special diets an needs to the animal such as helping them use the bathroom or eat. I prefer to stay at the clients home due to having 3 cats of my own and not knowing how they are with other cats.

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 .
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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
