About: There's never been a time in my life when I didn't have a pet - dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I've helped take care of friend's and neighbors pets while on vacation since I was a teenager. We recently had to say bye to our dog, Bateman, of 13 years and as much as I'd love to welcome another pet into our lives, we're just not ready yet, but we'd love to show some love to your fur babies! We have a big, fenced in backyard and we are attached to a park that's great for walks, so I'd love to see Bateman's space put to good use. My husband and I both work from home and I don't have a set schedule so I can be flexible and available throughout the day. I also take daily walks at the park attached to our neighborhood, so I'd love to have friend to take along with me for some exercise. We have a 7-year-old son and 15-year-old daughter who both love animals and will be more than happy to love on your fur babies. I used to have my own little escape artist at home, so I'm very cautious when opening doors to ensure no one gets out unless there's a fence or they're on a leash.
“Christy took great care of our kitty and went above and beyond during her visits. I would definitely recommend Christy if you need someone to take care of your fur baby/babies.”
“Rebekah is a lovely sitter. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, compassionate, responsible pet sitter. I feel great about reaching out for future help the next time I go away.”
“This was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyone’s pet!”
“Professional and personable, are how I would describe Megan. From, our initial meeting, to the explanation of our dogs routine, and through the experience of caring for our Beagle. We had the feeling she was responsible, and is very pleasant. Our dog verified our feelings accepting Megan as a friend as soon as they met. We will not hesitate to have Megan care for Layla again.”
“Excellent and experienced care for my big excitable out and small nervous pup. Treanne was also willing to add us to her schedule last-minute, which we very much appreciated! Highly recommend!”
“Alexis does an awesome job taking care of my kitties!! Wouldn’t think twice about having her take care of my animals again! She goes above & beyond! Would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter!!”
About: They say grief is love with no place to go, so since my senior Belgian Malinois passed away, I've been fostering dogs and would like to get into dog walking. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I have pet-sat for family and friends as well. I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am generally available during daylight hours Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and 5 PM or later Tuesday and Thursday. Before or at the start of our first walk, I'd like to get to know your dog's preferences, triggers, and typical walking habits and routes. I suggest treats for positive reinforcement if working on socialization and a slip lead to reduce pulling. A safe, enjoyable outing is my priority for your dog.
About: Hello! I have loved animals since I was a child, I grew up on a farm in rural Pennsylvania. As a kid, I got to see three litters of puppies be born. As an adult, I have two cats (one we found in our backyard at just a week old. I got into dog walking by accident, I was helping a lady in the community and her dog she rescued from India really liked me. She said her dog doesn’t like many people and asked if I would like to walk her some days. From then on (Dimple) and I were good friends. She was a fun companion during the day and I felt special because she took to me. I hope your dog likes me too! We live in a townhome community with great sidewalks for walking. We also have a dog park! Your pup is welcome to sleep and be wherever they feel comfortable in our house. We have 3 children who will keep your pup entertained!
“Murray was the best sitter we’ve could’ve asked for while we were away. He communicate daily and included photos and information about our fur babies. In fact, our shih-poos are two that don’t warm up to people immediately, but it was literally no time at all before Murray was treated like he was one of the family. He definitely has a way with establishing trust, nurture and genuine care shared in every visit.”
“As always, Gabbie took wonderful care of my cat. Gabbie always has open communication, awesome care skills for not only my cat but also our home, and makes sure that my cat is loved!”
“Cheyene did a great job with our anxious pup and crazy husky! She was on time, sent great pics, and gave us feedback about how Zelda and Willow were behaving to make us feel more at ease with our first time using Rover.”
About: Cause i have none of my own (yet) and will treat your pet like they are my own fur baby! I had a dog growing up and I used to help out at a dog kennel a few years ago. I am willing to work out and communicate about times my hours are pretty flexible. I love to go on walks in and around my town and would love ur pup to come and join me in my exploration. I have always had a very strong, loving connection to animals. (my grandmother had a farm when I was growing up in Kenya and my first best friend was a calf named Daniel lol) I respect all living beings and take joy in nurturing my friends' pets as if they're one of my own! I am an art student as well so ur pet may be a source of inspiration for my paintings, that's if they can sit still ofc! :) plz feel free to contact me for any further questions I’d be happy to answer any. im currently working part time so ur pet will get plenty of play time with me during the day! my complex has a few trails too that i like to take that id love to share with your pet i have plenty experience with boarding and caring for dogs from my old job. they will get plenty of potty and play breaks and consistently fed promptly at your desired time. i work hard to gain every animals trust that i work with and make sure there is a mutual respect and interest between us! i will take plenty of photos for updates and so u are in the know about anything major or concerning
“They were amazing! I am so thankful I found them! I have a doggie who is reactive/ unpredictable at times. They listened to my concerns and implemented my recommendations to keep everyone safe. I could not have asked for a better experience!”
“They did a great job with my three dogs played with them in the backyard and just made them feel really happy while we were out of town. Unfortunately, our one dog has a lot of social anxiety, but they were very patient with them and did what they needed to to make him feel Special”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Arbor
We couldn’t be happier with the care Gabbie gave our three cats — Sampson, Miken, and Eddie — while we were away. She came once daily for four days, fed them, cleaned the litter box, and made sure everyone was doing well. What we appreciated most were her thoughtful daily updates and pictures of each cat. It gave us real peace of mind seeing them and knowing they were being cared for so attentively. Gabbie did a great job, and we would absolutely trust her again with our boys. Highly recommend!
Rebekah did a great job communicating with us both before and during the booking! While one of our cats is a little difficult when it comes to getting her medicine, we appreciate that Rebekah put in the effort to try. She helped keep an eye on our place as well. We would definitely book her again!
Faith was on time for our drop in visits; she asked questions when needed and answered any question(s) I had while away. She was willing to change or clean litter but was not necessary and sent many pics of my kitten. She followed my feeding instructions for my kitten and updates me on what he ate and litter "issues". I would easily use Faith again or recommend her to others.

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
