“Christina took amazing care of Cannoli for a week while we were away on vacation! She is so wonderful 🫶🏻 and we couldn't be happier with our experience with her. Excellent communication, super dependable, and Cannoli clearly adored her. Christina always updated us and sent us the cutest videos and pics and left notes to keep us well informed about the visits. We appreciate the time and care she put on our beloved Cannoli 😽. Leaving home is so much easier knowing your pet is in such wonderful hands. Highly recommend!”
“Isabel took wonderful care of our cat Esther while we were on vacation, including cleaning her litter box and sending great photos and videos of her. We came home to a happy healthy feline. Esther recommends Isabel if you are looking for a loving and responsible pet sitter, and we recommend her too.”
About: I have watched dogs and walked dogs for family friends since I was about 14-15 and have always taken great care of them, making sure they also get to play with me or interact with me before I leave the home. I do competitive horseback riding and have learned how to treat an animal right and take care of one through this. I have watched my grandma's older dog that needs medication 3-4 times a day and I have made sure she's gotten her meds on time every single time. It's the most important thing to me to make sure the animals are happy and content even when their owners aren't home. I work full time, my schedule is monday-friday 9am-6pm with a hour lunch. I am able to do drop ins or walks mid day on my lunch depending on the distance. Since I have experience with horses and farm dogs I feel that I’m great with control when walking, I also enjoy just hanging out with pets even if it’s while watching a movie
“I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone in need of a cat sitter. We have a very independent kitty; Jennifer ensured she felt comfortable and loved. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her for future cat sitting needs. Thank you for your great service!”
About: I've been an avid animal lover all my life and have had pets (everything from dogs and cats, to rescued dwarf hamsters and injured wildlife) since I was a kid. My parents weren't thrilled when I ran a pet rescue at age 7, but it stayed with me, working with Wildlife rehabilitators well into college. I hung up my "official" rescue hat to raise kids and work in corporate but continue to care for pets (my own 1 dog & 2 cats) and enjoy meeting new furbaby friends frequently. I have a flexible work schedule (self employed holistic coaching) so add in pet care as my schedule and interest permits. I'm not one for sitting idle, so love filling up time with meaningful activities including pet care. I consider each pet's needs and personalities and make sure to care for them from that perspective. Whether it is an anxious pup who needs to feel safe, a confident cat who needs attention at her own will, or a rambunctious pup who needs to be run, I love it all.
“Alexis is prompt, responsive, and fantastic with my cats! She followed my instructions and provided detailed notes/photos to let me know everything was well at home while I am traveling. I will definitely use her services again!”
About: Experienced and dependable pet sitter with a lifelong background in animal care, having owned and cared for small to medium-sized pets since age 6. I’ve provided pet sitting for family members’ large dogs and cats, handling feeding, playtime, and daily routines with care and attention. I also have hands-on experience raising kittens from just days old, including bottle feeding and monitoring their health. I genuinely love working with animals—especially fluffy ones—and prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. 🐾 I am currently seeking pet sitting opportunities and have a flexible schedule during the week, allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I work all day Saturday, Sunday, and wednesday; I work half days Monday and Tuesday and I am off thursday and Friday. I enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize creating positive, calm interactions—whether that’s playing, comforting anxious pets, or simply keeping them company so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or any messes, and giving them attention through playtime, petting, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. I also make sure doors, gates, and safety areas are secure before leaving.
“Great experience with Nathaly! She was sweet and caring to our dogs while we were gone and sent pictures which always makes it easier when we have to leave them for the weekend. Will definitely be reaching out to her again when we need her.”

Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! 🐾💕 I understand that every fur baby has their own personality, routines, and boundaries, so I always lead with patience, kindness, and respect. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to maintain their familiar routines, follow your care instructions, and create a calm, loving environment. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want for my own! I'm always happy to provide photos and updates so you can feel confident knowing your little one is safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away! 🐶🐱💕
About: Hiya! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 3+ years of professional animal-care experience, including working with RASKC, volunteering with RASKC, dog walking, and pet sitting. I’ve cared for animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m especially comfortable with senior pets, special-needs animals, allergies, disabilities, large breed dogs,fearful/avoidant dogs and pets who need medications, I can safely administer oral, topical, and injectable medications and am happy to follow your pet’s usual care routine. My favorite part of pet sitting is getting to know each animal as an individual. Whether your dog needs a long walk and a good game of fetch, your cat wants someone to patiently earn their trust, or your senior pet would rather spend the afternoon getting cozy cuddles, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. When I stay in your home, I focus on keeping your pets’ routines as normal as possible so they can stay comfortable in their own space while you’re away. I provide lots of playtime, enrichment, attention, and cuddles! I’m also available for daytime walks and drop-in visits for pets who need some extra exercise, companionship, a potty break, medication, or just someone to tell them how wonderful they are while you’re at work. 😉 I’ll send you regular photos and videos so you can see what your pets are up to and know they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I can care for up to 5 dogs in a home, although I prefer up to 3 so everyone gets plenty of individual attention. I’m also happy to care for any number of cats and have experience with all kinds of feline personalities—from total cuddle bugs to shy kitties and the wonderfully spicy ones. Your pets are family. My goal is for them to feel safe, loved, entertained, and completely spoiled while you’re away! I am available for pet setting full time so I do not have any restrictions on when I am available for stopping by the house for visits or walks while also being able to stay in your home the the majority of my stay while taking care of your animals. I am generally able to assist with same day requests as long as I have met you and your animals first and discussed their needs and your expectations. I bring something a little different to pet sitting: professional shelter experience combined with a lifetime of loving animals. Working with animals professionally has taught me how to read body language, recognize when something is “off,” safely handle a wide range of personalities, and stay calm when the unexpected happens. I’m comfortable caring for pets who need a little extra patience or specialized attention, including seniors, animals with disabilities or allergies, and pets requiring oral, topical, or injectable medications. But experience isn’t the only thing I bring. I genuinely love spending time with animals. I want your pets to have fun, feel secure, and get plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m observant, dependable, communicative, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. And I’ll keep you connected with photos and videos throughout your pet’s stay, because I know you'll want to see those adorable faces while you’re away! I want you to not have to worry and enjoy your time away from home as much as possible! Most importantly, I care for your pets the way I’d want someone to care for mine.If I am staying at your home while watching the animals I may have some daytime plans, errands or other clients to visit for a small amount of time please discuss your pets needs with me while booking to ensure there are no gaps in their care due to existing schedule conflicts. Otherwise I will just be at your home with your animals so they get my dedicated attention and I am able to calm any nerves and offer lots of cuddles, play time, enrichment, and exercise. What to expect when I meet you and your animals: When I meet with you,especially about doggos, I will want to understand what verbiage you use for things like "sit" and "lay" so I can use the same terms. It Is also important to me to know what types of training you are working on with your animals, if any, so I can work on the same things with them and continue their training with consistency. I will also work with you to get an understanding of their feeding process and routines so they get their meals exactly correct and at the exact right time.I will do the same with medication details, leashing/haltering and walking paths if any, bathroom schedules and night time schedules.It is very important to me that I am aware of your cats or dog's triggers, if any, so I can better tailor my care to them and proactively keep their environment as comfortable as possible. There is nothing I cannot handle as long as I am educated about the animals needs.

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.
