“This was my first time having Carly kittysit since my last sitter relocated to a different state. Carly was super friendly, on time to every visit and sent my tons of pictures (the more the better were my words I believe, haha) and was very professional. I definitely will be using her services again next time Ms Jewels needs her.”
“Calleigh is great! She took great care of my cat while I was out of town. She gave her lots of love and attention and spent a lot of time playing with her! I will definitely book with her again!!”
“Amy did a great job taking care of our extremely shy cat while we were away, even coaxing her out of her hiding spots for treats/petting. We received updates from Amy daily and notes about how our cat was doing, and felt very comfortable that she was in good hands.”
“Katie was so sweet with our two cats! You can tell she loved on them as her own 🐾 Every visit she gave a detailed message and sent plenty of pictures. On top of watching our babies, she gathered some of our mail, stopped a toilet from running, and straightened up before leaving (all without being asked!) Grateful to have found her and will definitely use her again!”
“We had a bit of an unusual Rover request, and Lee was absolutely wonderful! We’re working with a trainer to help our shy dog, Bonzo, feel more comfortable with new people, and we needed someone he had never met to come over so we could practice having a “stranger” in the house. Lee was so kind, patient, and completely willing to follow our trainer’s instructions and go at Bonzo’s pace. They made the whole experience incredibly easy and were so sweet with him. We’re very grateful they were willing to help us out and would absolutely recommend them!”
“Pam is absolutely amazing. We trust her completely with our pups, and every stay with her gives us total peace of mind. She is thoughtful, reliable, and truly cares - our dogs adore her. She sends great updates, is incredibly responsive, and always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well-loved. Pam is absolutely amazing.

About: Hi- if I have taken care of your furry best friend I am taking a break from in home boarding while we wait for our home to be build. I would love to continue watching your babies when we get into our new house. I am still doing drop ins for cats. 🐈 Hello my name is Sarah and I would love to help ease your stress around leaving your furry family member while you travel for work or play. I have experience with older dogs and will really learn what you and your animals need to feel good about their time away from you. I can do drop ins, walks or boarding. I have been watching dogs since living in the Caribbean when people left the island. We have an animal loving home with boys that love to cuddle with animals and 2 youthful kitties that have grown up around dogs and love to interact. I will work with you to make sure you feel like your animals will be treated as good as they would be at your house. I love sending pics and videos of your fur babies to you. I want you to have fun while you are away and know your animals are in good hands. 🩷 Thank you for choosing our family! I have many regular clients on and off Rover that stay with me. If your dog does not get along well with other dogs and you would like a private booking please let me know and we can discuss private rates. Otherwise I may have another dog that I am caring for when your baby is with us. If your dog has any bathroom habits that will help me with the stay please let me know. Thank you! I have a great schedule that will allow me to walk your dog during the day if we are boarding and I am available most weekends. If it is a drop in I can do that after 2 during the week and anytime during the weekends. I have summers off so I can do pick ups to take your baby to Folly if that is what will make your dog happy! I have a big fenced in yard and can have your baby sleep where they are comfortable. I have taught my children to be very careful when opening our front door. They make sure your dogs safety is the first priority.
“Kristin was incredible!!! So so sweet to our kitties and sent such great updates while we were away. So grateful for her and highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Ally was amazing! She was so thoughtful and thorough with our old dog Boone. Her messages and photos each walk assured us he was getting the best care. I would 100% recommend her to be your pet sitter and we will absolutely hire her again!”

Adare is absolutely amazing with my stubborn orange cat! She is so reliable, sweet, and caring, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing he’s in her care. She goes above and beyond to spend time playing with him, brushing him, and giving him lots of attention. She also always sends me the cutest pictures, which I absolutely love receiving while I’m away! I couldn’t recommend Adare more—she is truly wonderful with my cat! 🧡🐈
Pam was / is awesome. This was a last minute booking b/c a neighbor arrangement fell through. But her extensive experience, especially with elderly cats, gave me great confidence and peace of mind. And she took excellent care of my fur-baby. She took care of him like she herself was Mommy. Great experience with her- highly recommended.
Christina is fabulous!!! She was wonderful with our senior kitty before she passed and equally amazing with our new Maine Coon kitten. Christina has a wonderful spirit, and our pets fell in love with her immediately. It certainly gives us peace of mind to know our kitten is in good hands.
Taylor was an incredible pet sitter front to back; we cannot recommend her highly enough! She was super communicative and took extra care and time to make sure our crew felt loved and taken care of while we were away. She is so professional and thoughtful and authentically cares about the animals she sits for. 10/10 across the board!

Lauren was incredible!! She left such a thorough update about my girl and made time to walk her but also hang out. She made sure to tell how Masie was when she got there and how she seemed when she left, and just out my mind at ease about how my girl was doing while I was at work. I really really appreciated her and her flexibility and thoroughness!
We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! She did a fantastic job taking care of Crooks and Piggy while we were away. The house was fresh and clean when we got home, and she sent us pictures every day so we could see how happy and relaxed they were. We truly felt like our cats were in the best possible hands the entire time. Highly recommend, thank you so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
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.
