“Julia was gentle and slow in her approach with our senior kitty. She communicated after every visit. She managed the medication dosage plus the mixing to our kitty’s liking. 5 stars!”
“We requested Alura spend a lot of time just hanging out with our three cats so they could acclimate to her and relax. The photo updates demonstrated just how much they appreciated her company. ? We were gone two weeks, but by day 2 we had become so confident our babies were well cared for we were able to completely relax and enjoy it. Thank you Alura!!!”
“Bond is never happy to have his regular staff away, but he seemed happy when we got home so Emily apparently was a good substitute! Emily had good communication and sent photos daily.”
“She’s awesome! Took great care of the cats. Very good communication and received lots of updating pictures. Jocelyn also adapted to my last minute schedule and changes. I’ll definitely call her again.”
“This is my second time using Claire to watch my cat and I will be using her again!! She is consistently great - always taking such good care and going the extra mile to send videos / photos.”
“Mandi was fantastic! She made sure my kitten got plenty of exercise and stayed active, and she was incredibly responsive throughout. I felt totally at ease knowing my pet was in such caring and capable hands.”
“It is my first time using rover so they made us feel very comfortable and explained the whole process. They did a meet and greet to meet our cats and learn their routine so that they could know how to best take care of them, and kept us informed throughout the entire visit”
“Emma is very communicative and sweet! We trust her with our needy kitty, hyper large breed 8 month old puppy, and anxious 10 year old lady (dog). They are quite the pack and she handles them well!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life—countless cats, three dogs, two parakeets, fish, and two ferrets. I worked for PetSmart for a year, caring for their animals, and have experience with sick pets. I volunteered at my local Humane Society for a while as a dog walker, and I owner-trained my current dog, a retired/at-home service dog. I’m currently free the majority of the day and at night. As long as I have enough time to take care of my own pup at home, I can arrange my schedule around taking care of your pets, too! I’m a big fan of maintaining routine for pets whose people are out of town. I like to follow a schedule for feedings and walks and to maintain a training routine if that’s part of your life!
“Miss Tiffany immediately bonded with our fussy old cat, Leo. She understood what he wanted and delivered copious pets, snuggles and treats for 12 days. The photos were a testament to his happiness. We couldn’t be happier with her service and most definitely will request her again should the need arise.”
“Kristen was an amazing sitter. I've used Rover in the past and have had great sitters who took care of my two cats. My cats tend to be skittish when I'm away and don't always eat all of the food put out for them. This time, Roo and Pachanga were immediately comfortable with her, and the pictures she sent every day showed Roo eating, which was unusual. I found out in a chat with Kristen, that she was distracting Pachanga while Roo ate, so she would be able to eat in peace. Which went above and beyond. I came home to happy and relaxed cats, who showed zero signs of stress or distress. She played with them and I could see in the pictures she sent after every visit, they were being their usual silly selves. I will absolutely use Kristen in the future, knowing they will be in good hands and well taken care of.”
About: Hi there! I’m Alison, a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet sitter with experience caring for dogs, cats, and smaller animals. Whether your furry friend is an energetic puppy/kitten needing playtime or a senior/shy pet requiring a gentle pace, my number one goal is to make them comfortable and to give you total peace of mind while you are away. Always happy to keep you updated on visits with pictures/videos as well. I look forward to meeting your pet(s)! I am very much a homebody and enjoy doing house projects, gardening and continuing to build extensions onto my home catio! I have a flexible schedule and pet care comes naturally to me. I take pet care instructions seriously, and my goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine and comfort. Whether your pet is crate trained or needs extra attention, I wil take great care!
About: I’ve spent much of my life caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, many cats, and other pets! I grew up with an Australian Shepherd, whom I trained in basic obedience as well as agility-course tricks (although I am not a formally trained or certified dog trainer), and cats. More recently, I’ve pet-sat for the cats and dogs of family and friends. This has included caring for an older pet with mobility limitations and a pet with complex health needs and a medication schedule. I understand how important it is to follow an owner’s care instructions carefully, especially when medications or special routines are involved. Beyond meeting their basic needs, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to play, provide enrichment, groom, go for walks, or simply give plenty of attention and snuggles while their people are away. I’ve even walked cats! I’m detail-oriented and appreciate thorough care instructions. As a graduate researcher, I’m accustomed to following detailed protocols, keeping careful track of schedules, and paying close attention to small changes—skills I also bring to caring for animals. My goal is to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re apart. As a graduate researcher, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to incorporate pet care throughout my day. My research schedule varies from week to week, but I keep my Rover calendar up to date and only accept bookings that I know I can reliably accommodate. For house sitting, I’m able to spend mornings, evenings, and overnight with your pets while working around my university responsibilities during the day. Because much of my academic work can be done on my laptop, I can often study, read, or write from your home while keeping your pets company. For drop-in visits, I plan visits around my daily schedule and make sure I have enough time to provide attentive care rather than rushing through a visit. I appreciate having a few days of advance notice whenever possible so I can plan my schedule around your pet’s routine and care needs. I know that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big responsibility. I carefully follow each pet’s normal routine and the instructions you provide, including feeding, medications, walks, litter-box care, and any household or safety precautions. I’m detail-oriented and genuinely appreciate thorough written instructions, especially for pets with medical needs or established routines. Before caring for a new pet, I like to learn about their personality, normal behavior, feeding and bathroom habits, medications or health concerns, and anything that might frighten or trigger them. For dogs, I also want to know about leash behavior and how they respond to other dogs, people, wildlife, and unfamiliar situations. I respect each animal’s boundaries and won’t force interaction with a pet who is frightened or wants space. I also pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, drinking, bathroom habits, or mobility and will communicate with you promptly if something seems unusual. In an emergency, I will follow your emergency-care instructions and contact you and/or your designated veterinarian as appropriate. When house sitting or providing drop-in care, I treat your home respectfully and make sure doors, gates, and other entry points are secured when I enter or leave. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I am a dog mom to a young Mini Aussie and Cavalier mix. I have raised her since she was 8 weeks. I also have experience puppy and dog sitting for my friends and neighbors dogs. This includes walks, feeding, playtime, medication, cleaning, and car rides. I have volunteered at local animal shelters to take dogs on neighborhood walks to enrich their day and to help them get adopted. I have taken dogs on hikes and are aware of walking safety and managing dog interactions. I have a flexible work schedule as I work from home. I can be available for a single walk per day or multiple drop in visits per day. Monday and Thursday 9:30am-11am are the only times I will not be available. I can be available to a limited amount of repeat visits per week. Please reach out regarding schedule and booking questions. I understand as a dog parent that sometimes you are needing immediate pet care. I am a reliable, generous and fun dog mom. I will be offering drop in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting from my own home. My home has a fenced outdoor space, open space downstairs and upstairs for dogs to play. I have a very social and friendly dog that gets along with every dog she meets. We have many blankets and you are welcome to bring over any of your dogs favorite beds and comfort toys. I always have kibble and dog treats and feeding bowls on hand. Please feel free to bring your own as well.
About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals and grew up helping care for pets, so I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and giving each pet the patience and attention they need. Now that my husband and I have bought our first home, I’m excited to fill it with wagging tails and happy paws. I work from home on East Coast hours, so my afternoons are wide open for exercise, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one care. I’m attentive, dependable, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe and right at home. Working from home gives me the flexibility to fit my day around your pet’s routine. I work East Coast hours, so I start early (5:30am) and finish around 2 PM. Throughout the day, I have time for potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins, and my afternoons are open for walks, companionship, enrichment, and quality time together. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. In my home, they’ll enjoy a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, a quiet, comfortable environment, and a walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks.

This is the second time we have used Mandi and I would use her again in a heartbeat. She is incredibly reliable and took amazing care of our cat. Additionally our cat needed pill medication twice a day and she was amazing with making sure our cat got his meds. Can’t recommend Mandi enough!!
Alura was very attentive to my cat, Romeo. She paid attention to detail, and asked questions if things were not clear. Romeo was very happy and seemed content and comfortable when I came home. I loved the photos she sent. I also asked Alura to water my garden and flowers, and she did a great job with that. It was very hot the week I was gone, and everything looked great when I returned.
10/10 Recommend! Matt was incredible and truly came through for us when we had to go out of town unexpectedly and needed someone reliable for a few days. The trust we placed in him was completely justified—he was punctual, dependable, and consistently communicative. We gave Matt a code to our home and left feeding instructions, all of which he followed perfectly. Throughout his visits, he checked in regularly and asked thoughtful questions whenever needed to ensure our cats were fully taken care of. What really stood out, though, was how Matt went above and beyond. Even though it wasn’t requested, he asked if he could spend extra time giving our cats some affection. This not only showed his genuine love and compassion for animals but also demonstrated his respect and proactive communication by asking first. My wife and I are truly grateful to have found Matt. He is trustworthy, reliable, and deeply caring—everything we could hope for in a pet sitter. We wholeheartedly recommend him.
Katie is your ideal sitter. She is reliable, quick to respond, flexible and leaves informative updates. My cats also liked her and when we came home it was clear she had been keeping up with all the chores involved. She takes care of things without needing too much explanation which is nice when you are gone. Would 100% recommend her.
Lucas is awesome! As a vet tech, he stepped in to help our cat sitter, who injured herself while we were traveling, and could no longer administer sub-q fluids. He was the reason we didn't have to end our vacation and return early. He is kind, caring, knowledgeable, gracious, and kept us briefed on everything about the situation, with photos, when he visited. I am so grateful to him for offering his services on Rover, and I HIGHLY recommend him if you reding this while looking for care. He's the best. Thanks, Lucas!

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.

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 .
