About: Part of my job is to take care and look after my patients, taking care of fur babies it’s a skill I can confidently say im great at. Since I was little I considered myself as an Animal lover, nothing stopped me from getting the experience and joy animals can bring. I've had all type of animals throughout my life - cats, dogs, reptiles, hamsters, fishes, etc. anything you can imagine, so I’m comfortable with taking care of pets. Part of my job is to take care and look after my patients, taking care of fur babies it’s a skill I can confidently say im good at. I’m currently a Full time student with a part time as a dental assistant but even then I have a lot of opportunities and gaps on my schedule to take care of pets. My weekends are completely free as well. I understand the needs of different animals and living conditions, I’m happy to go to a clients house to take care of their pets but if it’s needed I have no problem taking them out for a hike or a play date or just to get a pup cup.
“Sydney was great with our girl Scully! She was very attentive, responsive, and we could tell how much she cared! The pictures she sent were always adorable and we appreciated the time that she spent with Scully each visit. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Mauricio was great - available to help over a holiday weekend with little notice, very communicative and easy to work with, and did a great job taking care of my cats. Would definitely work with him again!”
“I can't recommend Zosha highly enough. I scheduled daily visits while we were on vacation for our cat Chloe to be given her medication and some love - and Zosha did such a great job at both! He went out of his way to give her plenty of affection and even treats on her puzzle toy. Everything was clean and left in great shape, Zosha was super communicative, and sent lots of pictures! Chloe is definitely a fan, and so are we. Thanks again, Zosha!”
About: I’ve been a lifelong pet lover and have had pets my entire life. I’m also a dog mom myself, so I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your pet while you’re away. I truly believe pets are family, and I’ll care for yours as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs, and I’m always happy to go the extra mile to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Booking with me means you’ll also receive detailed updates and plenty of photos, so you can feel connected and have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I love using my breaks to step away from the computer, get some fresh air, and take walks with my pup. After work, you’ll usually find me going for a run or getting my steps in with my dog. I’d love to have your furry friend join me! I have a very friendly and playful 3-year-old Bernedoodle who loves making new friends! I have a spacious, pet-friendly home with a yard (not fenced), plus a great, walkable neighborhood where we love getting outside. Your pup will have plenty of space, exercise, and companionship!
“Highly recommend Kimara for your all of your pet sitting needs. She is punctual, reliable, responsible and most of all kind. She will become your pet’s new best friend.”
“I was nervous about leaving my senior cat for a week, but Annie put me at ease! She sent photos consistently and regularly checked in with me. From every photo, it seemed that my sweet girl took to Annie immediately! She also left the place spotless and took good care of the apartment while I was away. I would definitely recommend Annie to fellow pet parents!”
“Bianca and Charles were amazing pet sitters, and took great care of my cat. They provided great communication and were incredibly flexible. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for someone to take care of your furry loved ones! 🐱”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a baby, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. I grew up with American Eskimo Dogs and now have two fun, energetic one-year-old Beagles, so I have experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I genuinely love dogs of all kinds and understand that every dog has unique needs and routines. In addition to caring for my own dogs throughout my life, I’ve also spent many years volunteering in dog rescue advocacy online, helping support rescue organizations and promote dogs in need of loving homes. That experience has strengthened my understanding of dog behavior, patience, and the importance of providing a safe, loving environment. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping to their normal routine, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and personalized care while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I work full-time during the weekdays, but I’m available before and after work, on evenings, weekends, and many holidays. If you’re located close to my home, I’m also available for select lunchtime drop-in visits or walks when my schedule allows. I understand how important consistency and reliability are, and I’ll do my best to keep your pet on their normal routine while providing dependable, loving care. I know every pet has their own routine, and I believe consistency is one of the best ways to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. Before each visit, I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s habits, preferences, and any special instructions so their routine stays as normal as possible. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, providing plenty of exercise, administering medication, or giving a little extra attention to a shy pet, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you’ll always know how your furry family member is doing.

Ni is amazing and super thorough with all the visits! She sent us plenty of pictures, including pictures of tasks being completed so you get a peace of mind. She is very patient and so good with all of them, our cats loved her, including our skittish girl. We have 3 cats and some of the instructions are not as straightforward but Ni followed them perfectly! Will definitely book her again for our future trips ☺️
Could not have asked for a more smooth process. My cat, Book, was recently diagnosed with Diabetes and so needs alot more care, Yan took it all in stride and Book immediately liked her and it was such a relief to find someone competent and kind to help take care of my little furbaby! Also I loved the pictures and updates I got along the way, it did alot to help my anxiety about having to leave him to get his meds from someone new for the first time. 12/10
Amelia is awesome!!!! Was our first time trying this service and she instantly put us at ease. Kind, caring, and obviously passionate about taking good care of our furry family members. When she stopped by for a meet & greet, they (my 2 enthusiastic big dogs and one nonchalant cat) immediately sensed she was there to engage and play with them and I knew all would be well, and it was!! Already planning her next visit, she’s at the top of our list. (“We love you Amelia!!” - your new best buddies, Kiara, Dakota, and Hunter)
Patricha did a great job taking care of my cats. She took time and effort to gain their confidence and play with them. She was reliable and timely with her visits and great about following directions for feeding, etc. She went above and beyond to leave things neat and clean. She was great about communicating, and that freed me from worrying. When I came home, I found my cats relaxed and happy. Very grateful, and would hire her again (and hopefully will).

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.

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.
