About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, from little puppies and kittens to older pals who need extra care. My own elderly cat and dogs have needed ear drops, oral medicine, and insulin injections. I don’t just fill the bowls and leave. I stay for real visits with play, treats, cuddles, or quiet time, whatever helps your pet feel at home. Every animal is different. Some want lots of affection and some need space. That’s fine with me. Even the ones who like distance still get attention in a way that feels right for them. I’m happy to care for birds, fish, bugs, or other small pets too, as long as you show me what to do. I can also water plants, bring in the mail, and help with other little house things. Your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, and you feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands! I work remotely from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate visits throughout the day. I’m generally available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, with the only exceptions being occasional scheduled work meetings. I know my meeting schedule in advance, so we can coordinate visit times ahead of booking to make sure I’m available when your pets need me! I treat every client's home with the same care and respect that I would want someone to show my own home. I’m mindful of keeping things clean, following your instructions and routines, and making sure your pets are comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your animals, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make your time away as worry free as possible, knowing both your pets and your home are in good hands.
“Taylor is most excellent! She knew and provided just what Gracie and I needed, and more! I believe I hit the jackpot when I found Taylor! So kind, sweet, understanding and helpful!”
“Agne did such a wonderful job taking care of my 2 kitties. Although she didn’t have the opportunity to see too much of them since they like to remain hidden, she made sure they were well cared for. She also had to do some ant combat. I highly recommend her for your upcoming cat care. I will be referring her to my cat lady friends.”
“Jessica took great care of my kitty while I was traveling abroad. I always appreciated the wonderful picture and video updates, and seeing my cat gradually get more comfortable with the unfamiliar space really reinforced to me that Jessica was doing a great job of keeping her happy.”
“Jessica was patient and kind while house sitting my three cats. She communicated daily with texts, pictures, and video and was quick to text if she had any questions. I plan on booking her again for upcoming trips.”
“Maya was amazing! She took such great care of our fur baby when we were away. When I saw the photos and report I knew right away our cat was in good hands. She made sure he was loved and looked after and left the house clean. Anytime I go out of town, I plan on requesting Maya!”
“Indie is very attentive and caring. She sent lots of photos and took excellent care of Boris while I was away. I felt reassured knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Sofia did an amazing job caring for my two cats, Lucky and Kiko, while I was away. She was patient, attentive, and gave them lots of love — even my shy one came out to say hello!”
About: I have experience with kittens, adults and senior cats. I bottle fed a litter of two abandoned newborn kittens and worked to get them adopted. I have adopted several adult cats that needed to build trust with humans. I have administered medication to senior cats. I am recently retired from being self-employed. I would enjoy greeting your cat and playing with them every day while you are away. As well as making sure they are fed and their litterbox is cleaned. At this time, I am not taking on in home cat boarding. I may consider this in the future if time and space permits. I am starting with house visits for now.
About: I like to say I'm an animal whisperer ;). Have been pet sitting / caring for other's pets for over a decade but for my own pets my whole life. I'm confident, cognizant and sensitive to the needs of animals whether it's feeding, walking, playing, potential threats or health hazards. I have often sat for pet owners for multiple pets up to a month at a time. I have had pets my whole life (mainly cats / dogs) of many breeds, sizes, temperaments and health concerns or requirements. Growing up I had a bird, hermit crab, guinea pig, hamster, fish. When I worked at a public school I helped out with a cute bearded dragon! For overnights - I understand that when staying in their homes that I am to leave it in a cleanly condition and am comfortable asking questions in order to maintain those conditions the home was left in.*Please note I am looking for sits which I may bring my male Bernese Mountain Dog. He is good around cats & farm animals too!** I'm active person with a flexible schedule so pet care works out well. Owning my own dog, I am used to schedules + routines and can adjust easily to other dog's schedules or routines. Dogs get let out every 4-6 hours (or as needed), fed on their schedules, walks, hikes and/or outdoor play times, field trips. I treat their pets like I do my own: lots of TLC and cater to their needs as much as I can. For cats - depending on their nature (if indoor / outdoor), I like to make sure I am able to visibly see & check in with some TLC, play or just see to make sure they're safe!
“Saylor did an excellent job taking care of my kitties. She even earned the trust of the extremely timid one, which is a feat that no other sitter and many friends had failed to do previously. She was attentive throughout her stay with them, and it was clear to me that they felt cared for when I finally got home.”
“My kitties had a great stay with Vanson. Even my skiddiah kitty warmed up to him. They loved the indoor catio and the balcony turned catio so much they asked for one at our house. Vanson was easy to communicate with and provided nice updates. I would definitely keep my kitties with Vanson again.”
About: I have always had pets including fish, cats, dogs and a chinchilla. I have pet sit 4 dogs at a time and house sat for family and friends. Over the summer I work, go to school and play sports part time, but I have a good amount of time in the morning and afternoon to check in on all animals! I have a fenced backyard, friendly dogs and experience with dogs and cats. In your home I will ask for specific instructions on pet and home care to ensure the best care and experience with your pets!
“Elena was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our cat, Luka, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciated how thoughtful she was about checking in and keeping us updated. I loved receiving the daily photos she captured and her updates always made me smile. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Luka's well-being and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. We highly recommend Elana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter and look forward to rebooking with her in the future! Thank you, Elena!”

Olivia took great care of our kitties. It's clear that she really loves animals. She was even able to make friends with one of our shy cats, and the photos she sent were always sweet to see. I highly recommend her and will be happy to have her watch our pets again.
Daria went above and beyond caring for Boon! It gave me such peace of mind to feel my kitty was being excellently taken care of. I truly appreciate her care, attention to detail, and regular communication each day of my trip. She also sent me the cutest pictures and videos of Boon. Thanks so much Daria!
Taylor was a wonderful sitter for my cat. He warmed up to her right away, even though he is typically very shy. I truly appreciated the kindness and care she showed toward both him and me. Taylor provided wonderful photos and detailed Rover Cards throughout each visit, which was especially reassuring for me. She also handled his slightly complicated meal preparation with ease and demonstrated excellent attention to detail. I look forward to working with Taylor again in the future and would absolutely recommend her cat sitting services. Thank you again for everything, you made it so much easier for me to relax and enjoy my time away knowing he was in good hands!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
