“Laryssa was amazing! We had a last minute change to our care in that one of our cats needed medication. Without hesitation she had no problem giving it to our cat. We also had an issue with one of our cats feeders. Laryssa had a solution that completely worked and took care of the situation easily. I have never felt so at ease leaving my cats with someone. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Esther took wonderful care of our cat, Lyo, during her drop-in visits. She fed and gave him water in the morning, scooped his litter/poop, and spent time playing with him for 30 min. She also sent lots of pictures so we could "see" him while we were away. Esther entered and exited our home carefully with each visit, so all these considerations helped us to feel at ease with Lyo in her care.”
“Skylar was amazing with our 2 cats! She was very patient and let them warm up at their own pace. Both cats were very relaxed and comfortable our entire time away thanks to Skylar. We couldn't recommend Skylar highly enough.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs for family and friends, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. I understand the importance of following each owner’s instructions and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am dependable, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Hablo español! I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting on weekdays and weekends. I always make time to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while keeping owners updated. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions, keep pets in a safe and clean environment, and provide lots of love and attention. I will treat your pet like family and keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit.
About: I have spent majority of my life caring for a wide range of animals from dogs and cats to ducks, rodents, and reptiles. I have one beagle who loves playing with others and we would love some company for our walks and adventures. I am acclimated to cats and dogs of all ages, I am used to giving medications (including allergy injections) and pets with food sensitivities. If you have a fur baby that needs some exercise or company, my beagle and I would love to meet them for either a casual stroll through a neighborhood, a trail walk through the woods, or even for short visits to dog parks followed by soapy baths. Let me know what your pet needs are and I am happy to accommodate. On weekdays, I am available 3-7:30 most afternoons. If I am going to your home and your home happens to be near my work place, I may also occasionally be able to pop in for a short visit 9:45-10:30. At my home: Your dog has options. I have a puppy proofed kitchen that has access to a dog door with a fenced in yard. This space is separated from the rest of my home via a doggy gate and is a wonderful space where I leave my pup to play during the day while I am at work. This space has continual access to water, dog beds, toys, and the fenced in yard. Additionally, if there is a fur friend that is in need of a more private secluded space, I also have 2 medium dog crates with soft blankets and chewies. The crates will limit your pups interactions and protect them while I am away from the household for work. When I am home, the dogs will be with me throughout my entire house, they will be brought on walks, fun outdoor adventures, played with, fed, pet, they can sleep in the bed or on the floors, and they can be bathed if necessary. We can even take car rides to go out on fun hikes if you are interested in your dog having access to opportunities like that (they are our favorite.) They will continually have a beagle playmate happy to have companionship. Cats will have a secluded room to stay in, as they are often more sensitive to new spaces, and they will get plenty of snuggles and affection each day in their own private room. At your home: I will arrive in the afternoons with my beagle to play with your pups and to go on walking adventures. I can follow whatever particular protocols you have in place for your dogs, their food/med routines, etc. We will play together and spend time outside on adventures. I can take your pup with me in my car to go on hikes or we can keep the visit completely local. For cats, my dog will not come with me and I will enter the home to address whatever needs your cat may have, whether it be cleaning litter boxes or giving cans of wet food.
About: I took care of my black lab for 8 years, including feeding, giving medications, bathing and walking. I raised my cat from 6 weeks forward, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, giving attention to/playing with, and giving any medicines needed. I currently have a 4 and 5 year old cat. I also regularly volunteered at the cat Cafe in Murfreesboro, TN before I relocated to the area. There I was responsible for playing with the cats, feeding them and cleaning litter boxes. I have worked at an animal hospital where I have gained knowledge about medical situations and some medication giving. I am also a professional toy fixer! I am currently in between jobs so I do have mostly open availability until this changes or if I have to block some time off for an interview. I am willing to stay as long as needed to keep your furbabies happy and make sure they are fully taken care of. Being sure to leave your home exactly how it was when I arrived.
“Laura K. is the best! My cats and I are repeat customers, I would not imagine trusting anyone else with my kitties. My cats were happy when I arrived home, their spaces were clean. Laura sent pictures of play and cuddles; she truly is a gem.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing specialized care tailored to each pet's needs. I have experience in training puppies and providing gentle care for senior pets. I understand that every furry friend is unique, and I strive to create a personalized and loving experience for each one. My goal is to ensure their comfort, happiness, and overall well-being while their owners are away. Being home full time allows me to fully dedicate myself to pet care. It's a part of my daily routine, ensuring that I can give your precious fur babies all the attention, love, and care they deserve. Whether it's feeding, playing, or just cuddling, I'm always there for them! As a pet watcher, I make sure to follow any specific instructions given by the owner, such as feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I strive to create a comfortable and familiar environment for the cats/dogs, reducing any stress or anxiety they may experience while their owners are away.
“Nouf was fantastic! She took great care of my cat and was flexible throughout my time away. Her communication was clear and I always knew my cat was doing well. She made sure my cat had her dinner with medication, kept the litter box clean, and spent time playing before leaving. I’ll definitely book with her again.”

I always follow each owner's instructions and do my best to maintain your pet's normal daily routine.
“Elle was fantastic with our two cats, one of which takes multiple oral medications twice a day and the other who is beyond anti social. She handled both of their needs with complete professionalism and gave thorough daily updates. She is reliable, responds extremely quickly, and ensures everything is in order before and after visits.”
About: Hello! My name is Svetlana. I have over 6 years of experience working with animals — both cats and dogs. I am responsible, attentive, and caring. My goal is to provide your pet with comfort, safety, and individualized attention in a loving home environment. BOARDING Please read the following information carefully before booking. 1. Pets in the Home I have an intact male Cocker Spaniel and a Maine Coon cat living in my home. For this reason, I do not accept unspayed females. 2. Number of Pets I accept pets from ONE family at a time — maximum two dogs. I do not host pets from multiple families at the same time so I can give my full attention to your pet. 3. Required Documentation Before confirming your booking, I require proof from a licensed veterinarian of: * Rabies vaccination * DHPP vaccination * Date of the most recent deworming treatment 4. Dog Size and Breeds I accept small and medium-sized dogs of all breeds. Dogs over 40 pounds are accepted ONLY if they are f they are friendly with other dogs and cats. 5. Walks and Daily Routine. I only work 16–20 hours per week, so I am able to easily provide three 30-minute walks per day: * 7:30–8:00 AM * 1:30–2:00 PM * 7:30–8:00 PM This schedule allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and keep them under close supervision throughout the day. If you are boarding a puppy, I can adjust my schedule to provide walks every 2 hours (until 10:00 PM). Longer walks can be arranged separately. There is a 4-mile trail near my home where we enjoy walking during the spring and fall. 6. Medications I can administer oral medications if prescribed by a veterinarian. I do not administer injections. 7. My home is always clean, odor-free, and smoke-free — I believe this is essential for your pet’s health and well-being. 8. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in caring hands. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pup or kitty, providing love, attention, and companionship from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. 🐾 As an experienced animal carer who truly considers pets family, I’m great with cats and small- to medium-sized dogs. I’m also a responsible pet sitter who will always be reachable and happy to send plenty of pictures of your furry ones.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ashburn
Nicole was great taking care of our cats! She came over to meet them and ensure she understood where everything was located, what they needed, and see if I had any questions or specific requests. She sent a note and pictures after every visit and left things in great condition. I would definitely use her when we go out of town again!
Jenny was the perfect pet sitter for our three cats! She was kind, patient, and very attentive to their individual needs and seemed to genuinely enjoy spending time with them. She left beautifully written and lengthy updates after each visit and included so many cute photos of all the cats playing, eating, and enjoying her attention. I’m so grateful to have had her looking after our kitties and will definitely be booking with her again 😊💕
Kelsey is the most amazing cat sitter we've ever gotten. She was prompt in her daily updates with pictures and a message of how it went. She is thoughtful, cared for our cat as if he was her own, and assessed how he was feeling every visit which allowed her to gage what she needed to provide (extra play time, a treat, etc). We are definitely going to hit up Kelsey again and are grateful for everything she has done while we were away!!
Valerie is amazing! She was incredibly kind and caring with our kitties, took wonderful care of them, and even went above and beyond by helping with a few extra tasks while we were away. For example, she brought in the many packages we received during our trip, which was extremely helpful. She provided lots of pictures of our kitties during every visit, including photos of their food station and litter boxes, so we could see that everything was clean, neat, and well cared for. We could also tell that the kitties really loved her! They are usually very shy and don’t warm up to new people quickly, so seeing how comfortable they were with Valerie meant so much to us. We are extremely happy with her care and truly appreciate all the help, kindness, and attention Valerie provided. She did an excellent job, and we would absolutely recommend her!

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 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.

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 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.
