“Hannah is such a sweet soul. I left her to house sit and drop in on my two cats and dog while I was gone on vacation. She did phenomenally well! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter! She communicates daily and I felt safe leaving my babies in her care”
“In the past 2 years, I've booked Katelyn 7 times for drop-in visits for my cats. She's always done a great job taking care of the boys and I'll continue to request her in the future.”
“Karina was absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her enough. Princess is an extremely shy dog who rarely trusts new people, and it is not easy at all to win her over. In the past, many sitters have struggled with her, and some have even given up, so finding someone like Karina has been a huge relief for me. Karina was incredibly patient, calm, and clearly very experienced with dogs. She truly went above and beyond to earn Princess’s trust at Princess’s own pace. It takes someone with real skill, understanding, and confidence around dogs to handle Princess the right way, and Karina did exactly that. Knowing Princess was in such capable and caring hands gave me so much peace of mind. I am so grateful that I found Karina, and she will absolutely be the first person I reach out to whenever I need help going forward. I look forward to working with her regularly because it is truly hard to find someone this dependable, skilled, and caring. If you have a shy, nervous, or challenging dog, I would recommend Karina without hesitation. She is outstanding.”
“Joya-Bella was able to pick up my request after another sitter cancelled last minute and I could not be more grateful! She was great with communication and gave lots of love to my pups over the weekend. Happy to book again 😀”
“Monic was an amazing cat sitter, and I highly recommend her! She arrived on time for every visit, completed all of the care tasks exactly as requested, and spent quality time playing with our cats, in stead of just stopping by to refill food and water and scoop the litter box. From our very first meet and greet, it was obvious how much she genuinely loves animals. She was so patient and kind with our cats, and they were comfortable with her right away. It made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in such caring hands while we were away. She also kept us updated throughout the visits, and coming home to a sweet handwritten note was such a thoughtful touch. It really showed how much she cares about both the pets and their owners. Thank you so much, Monic, for taking such great care of our cats! We wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again and will definitely reach out the next time we need a sitter.”
“What a blessing it was to have Risi help out with scooby ! Especially since it was last minute ! She came at a time where we needed her urgently to help out for three days and delivered the greatest care to him. He really misses her when she’s gone . She also helped get him structured and on a better schedule then he was ! Thank you so much Risi and look forward to seeing you again!”

“We were so lucky to have found Marisol as a back up to our other Rover sitter. We have used her twice and have her scheduled for two more visits. She read and followed the instructions in our dogs profile and even brought in a package for us! Our dog was happy when I arrived home from work!”

“Maria has been a fantastic sitter for our cat! She sent us photos/videos from every visit, made sure he had some play time, and even managed to apply some eye drops when he needed them. We will definitely be booking Maria again when we next go on vacation!”
“Alex exceeded my expectations!!! This was my first time to use her and, for that matter, any other sitter than the one that I'd been using for 20 years who left the business due to health reasons. The meet-and-greet went very well. Then, from the first, she came on the schedule that we'd agreed to. The visit notes were timely and welcome When we got home, I realized that Alex had done a fabulous job, probably better than I do. The area around the litter boxes was clean. The used food bowls had been well-washed, ready for use again. The newspapers and delivered packages were neatly stacked. I will definitely ask for her again.”
“I hired Carole to take care of my beloved cats while I was away on a two‑week trip, and she was absolutely amazing. When I came home, my cats were happy, healthy, and incredibly well cared for. It was clear they received a lot of love and attention every single day. Carole did an excellent job with my cats during my time away. Her dedication and attention to detail gave me so much peace of mind while I was traveling. I am extremely grateful for everything she did. Without a doubt, Carole will be my go‑to person every time I need to travel and leave my babies in someone’s care. Highly recommend her!”

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
