“We've had Dasha come out to take care of our dog, Noodle, and we just had her check on our cat while we were gone. She was amazing, as always. We are so lucky to have found her!”

“Michael did an excellent job looking after our cats. He made sure to get a picture of at least one of them every visit. There was some issues with his schedule that came up and he did his best to communicate with us even though there was an 8 hour time difference between us. We appreciate everything that Michael did for us during such a long vacation.”

About: I've house sat and walked multiple sized dogs. I've also been around quite a few dogs in my lifetime. My parents had a puppy and I ended up having to take care of her for a while and I went to obedience training with her so I have some training skills. I currently am working part-time so I'll be more open to drop-ins and walks. I work retail though so my schedule isn't set but I am willing to try and work with you. I will give them lots of love and attention, activity, and I will make sure your pets are treated like my own; loved, safe, and fed.

“Deana took wonderful care of my cat, Glitch! She's very knowledgeable and was ready to deal with anything my needy cat had to throw at her. I returned from my long trip to find a happy cat who was better groomed than I've ever been able to get her. She's also delightful.”

I respect the client’s home and keep everything clean and organized while I’m there. I also give pets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise so they stay happy while their owner is away. Communication is very important to me, so I always send updates and photos so pet parents know their pet is safe and doing well.

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.

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 .
