“Becca was extraordinary. She took exceptional care of my cats, she communicated beautifully, sent pictures of my special needs babies so I knew they were okay, spent extra time with my neediest boy. I wish I could give her a million stars because she was that good. I WILL hire her again to take care of everyone because she was so responsive and responsible that I know my kidlets are in terrific hands!”

About: I was an on-the-job trained vet tech for 6 years and loved every minute of it! I ended up transitioning to the human medicine world, and have been in the ER almost 11 years. From axolotls to parrots, I have had all kinds of experience with pet-keeping! Animals will always be my passion 🐾🩷 I work second shift at the ER, so my schedule is very sporadic! I’m pretty flexible on my days off though. On days I work, I’m happy to come pet sit before or after my shift. I have a fenced in yard, two sweet dogs and 3 friendly cats that would be around! I’m happy to kennel or keep pets separated if needed though.

I am a young adult freelancer, so my schedule is somewhat free for now. I will be available to take care of your pets mostly later in the day on weekdays and all day on most weekends. I will care for your pet and/or pets in whatever way we agreed to, whatever way you ask me to. I will make sure your pet stays healthy and happy while you are away.

About: Hi! I'm a dependable, caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. I grew up with a dog, so I know the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping pets safe and comfortable. I've also provided drop-in visits for pets, making sure they were fed, had fresh water, received potty breaks, and got the care and companionship they needed while their owners were away. In addition, my aunt has two cats, so I'm comfortable around cats and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and detail-oriented. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or someone to spend time with them while you're away, I'll follow your instructions carefully and treat them with the same care and respect I'd want for my own pet. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate daytime, evening, weekday, and weekend visits. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you're away. If you'd like updates or photos during my visits, I'm happy to provide them. Pet care fits well into my routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy spending time with animals and appreciate the opportunity to help pet owners who need someone dependable to care for their pets while they're at work or away. I'm happy to work with each family's schedule and follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, take dogs out for potty breaks or walks, provide playtime and attention, and clean up after them as needed. I also make sure the home is left just as I found it and carefully follow any instructions the owner provides. At this time, I plan to provide care primarily in my clients' homes. I believe many pets are happiest and most comfortable in their familiar environment, where they can stick to their usual routine and experience less stress while their owners are away.

About: I have always been a dog person. People at work call me the dog whisperer. I have so much love and patience to give. I have trained my dog since he was a puppy and I have taken care of senior dogs as well. I am currently fully focused on pet care. My daily and weekly schedule is very flexible and easy to work around. This more time with furry friends the better! I have a Furbo if I am not home. I think the most important part is attention and love towards any pet. Making sure they have exercise and relief.

“Bradly did a great job watching our two dogs while we were out of town for a few days. We had him drop in 3 times a day. He arrived promptly at the designated times, fed, walked and played with our pups. He is very kind and responsive giving us comfort that they were getting the attention they need. Our English Springer Spaniel is full of energy and Brad was able to give him the play time fetching sticks to burn off some of his energy. We live on a few acres so having someone that is also active was important to us. We trusted Bradly with our home and pets and would definitely use him again.”

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.
