“X did a great job watching our Senior kitty, 2 adult kitties and 3 kittens. Our kitty routine is so complicated right now but all our 6 kitties were happy keeping their normal routine with a great care provider. Thank you!”
“Louis was a lifesaver. I requested 3 last minute drop in visits. He came to my house to meet me and my dogs on the same day as the request, right before I left town. He was very attentive, asked me important questions that I hadn't even thought of, and made me feel completely at ease. He showed up for his visits right on time, like literally right on the hour, every time, stayed the entire 30 minutes, and followed all of my instructions. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I would not hesitate to book him again in the future.”
“Bethany was wonderful! This was our first time using a pet sitting service and we were a bit nervous, but she made everything easy. She came for a meet and greet before our trip and she communicated daily throughout the trip to let us know how things were going. It was so comforting knowing our kitties were ok while we were away. We will definitely be using her service again and we highly recommend her to others.”
“Kayley was wonderful and took great care of our baby. She sent us pictures with updates several times a day and I could tell our girl was very happy. This was our first time using Rover and Kayley and I will definitely be using them again!”
“Courtney continues to the best! We are frequent travelers and she brings such a peace of mind as I know she takes wonderful care of my fur babies! She always goes above and beyond, would highly recommend!”
About: In 2006, my family adopted an Old English Sheepdog, Zoey. We got Zoey when she was a puppy, and she lived to be 9 before she passed away. In 2013, my dad and step-mom adopted an Australian Shepherd puppy, Molly. Molly was very high energy and needed a job to do, which was stressful for my step-mom so after Zoey passed away, my mom, my sisters, and I had Molly come live with us. Molly was with me for all walks of life, and we lived together just me and her for the past 6 years. As Molly had gotten older, her arthritis became a big deterrent for us, and we adapted as best we could to make her as happy and comfortable as possible. In the years after college, I dog-sat for my family friends and my own friends when they'd travel. It was always enjoyable and a good way to hang out with some pretty cool dogs! They came in all shapes, sizes, and ages! With Maddy the shitzu being 17 and Banor the German Shepherd being almost a year. I've always had pets, so taking care of them has always been a priority for me. It's truly muscle memory at this point. I get up and immediately go to take my dog outside. Before going to bed, I allot 20 extra minutes to take my dog outside. It's second nature. I care for pets by creating a safe environment for them. I always double-check to make sure nothing is on the floor that they could get into. Pushing things back on the counter in case they jump. And making sure they get extra pets before leaving them to go to work.
About: I’m a responsible and caring pet owner with hands on experience caring for cats, dogs, and other small animals. I have my own cat, my rescued baby, Neko, so I understand how important it is to have someone patient, trustworthy, and attentive caring for your pet. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, and following detailed routines. I’m also very observant of changes in behavior and always prioritize safety and comfort. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and will happily send photos and updates during every visit so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for. My schedule can vary depending on my RBT work, but I usually have good availability in the mornings and can often accommodate daytime visits as well. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to coordinate care around each pet’s normal routine whenever possible. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make safety a priority. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep doors and gates secure, follow feeding and medication routines exactly, and make sure pets are comfortable before I leave. I also send updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing.
“Isabel did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 cats. Her drop in visits were early each day and she sent lots of cute pictures and updates. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up with dogs, cats, birds, fish, rodents, and farm animals. Caring for pets has always been a normal part of life for me, both through my own animals and through pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. Over the years I’ve raised my own puppies and kittens, cared for senior pets, and managed medications and special care needs. One of my own dogs (German Shepherd Dog) was diagnosed with cancer at a young age, and I cared for him throughout treatment until he passed away at age four. That experience taught me how important consistency, patience, and close attention can be when a pet isn’t feeling their best. I also currently care for my senior dog who requires medication. Today I have a labradoodle that I’ve had since he was a puppy, two cats, and my senior dog. I take pride in training my dogs to be well-behaved and socialized. In addition to dogs and cats, as stated previously, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals including lizards, snakes, chickens, rodents, fish, a sun conure parrot, horses, donkeys, alpacas, and pigs. I know every animal is different, and I do my best to learn their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet is young and energetic, elderly, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I am a career biochemical scientist and lost my job in April. I am now having a blast working as a full-time stay at home mom. My 1 year old son also loves pets and would need to occasionally accompany me! I am available pretty much around the clock. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I will follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any household rules you’ve established to the best of my ability. I know that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and reduces stress while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I will make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, fresh water, and companionship. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. In my own home, pets are treated like part of the family. I maintain a safe, clean environment and supervise interactions carefully. I currently have a friendly labradoodle and two cats, so I’m very accustomed to managing different personalities, energy levels, and care needs.
About: Hi! I’m Madison, a lifelong dog owner and proud cat mom to two kitties, so I understand pets of all kinds (and their quirks). I share my home with my own dog and two cats, so your pet can have friendly animal companionship if that’s a good fit, or my full attention if not. I’m highly detail-oriented, so I take feeding schedules, medication, leash habits, and little personality quirks seriously. I’ll follow your routine exactly and send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy day care, so whatever you need, I’m happy to help. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and there’s nothing I love more than spending my days with them. Looking forward to meeting your pet! I’m a classroom teacher, so I’m typically free for drop-ins, walks, and boarding on evenings, weekends, and school breaks. My schedule is consistent and predictable, so you can count on reliable, on-time care every single visit. I’m highly detail-oriented and treat every pet like my own. In my home, your dog or cat will get a calm, attentive environment alongside my own dog and two cats. I follow feeding, medication, and routine instructions exactly as given, and I’m happy to crate or separate animals if needed for everyone’s comfort.
“Ayla is the best sitter I could’ve asked for. She sent daily update messages with photos, was so communicative, and took care of my cat like she was her own. She provides such a loving environment that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away :)”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have been pet sitting for 13 years. I grew up with Newfoundlands at home so I have lots of experience caring for and walking doggies of all sizes! I also have ample experience with dogs that have specific, special, or advanced needs, as well as a wide range of personalities and temperaments. I’m currently employed as an independently contracted mental health therapist and have availability during the weekdays and weekends as I build up a full case load. I would love to fill this time with dog walking and other pet care, if I can! My schedule is fairly flexible so I can be available to check in/care for dogs during normal business hours. I’m also open to staying overnight at clients’ homes to meet the needs of their dog if necessary!
About: I’ve had pets my whole life from childhood to adulthood. I was the child that found strays and brought them home! I have had dogs, cats, lizards and Guinea pigs. My pets are treated like family and I’ve always been on top of their health care and grooming. I currently have three cats, ages: 16,15,&two 4 year olds. I have an eight year old German Shepherd as well. At one time we had four dogs, and for cats! I was blessed to live in a large home with large fenced yard. I also have two grand cats, two grand dogs and one grand Guinea pig. My love of pets has past down to all my children. I also have access to military installations. I’m a retired teacher so Pet sitting is what I do! I travel and pet sit for areas that I’m interested in visiting so I’m often traveling to both cities and rural areas. I have my own transportation. I enjoy taking pictures of your loved ones for daily updates. I also have access to military installations. I will only provide care in the pets home. I’m a traveler right now so I can only sit in the clients home and Iam comfortable with that.
About: I’ve been regularly dog and cat sitting for the past five years, providing drop-in visits and overnight care. I grew up with rabbits and guinea pigs, so I’m also comfortable caring for small animals. Since my apartment doesn’t allow me to have a pet of my own right now, I love getting the opportunity to give your pet(s) lots of love. I’m reliable when it comes to feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and keeping you updated while you’re away! I’m very flexible with my availability. I’ll also be in town over the holidays and would love to help care for your pet(s)! I’m attentive to detail and diligent about following instructions and routines to ensure pets receive the best possible care. If I have questions or notice anything out of the ordinary, I communicate quickly to give you peace of mind. I’m also happy to help out with watering plants, bringing in the mail, or light housekeeping while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Auburn
Julia is awesome!! I love how everyday after the drop in I got photos & updates on each animal. Julia would always write a long paragraph for the day which I really appreciate vs getting 1-2 sentences. Julia also went above & beyond by feeding our fish & making sure our chickens were taken care of too. I will definitely rebook with Julia for future sittings.
Our regular sitter of over 10 years was unavailable so we met with Amanda and two other potential caregivers. While they all were quite competent, there was something special about Amanda…and we hired her to care for our 14 year old cat. Amanda had big shoes to fill in following our regular sitter, but she did an outstanding job! We would hire her again in a heartbeat. The only downside was the cumbersome communication through the Rover app.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
