“Georgia is such a sweet human being! She took the best care of our 3 cats for us while we were gone on vacation. She was available last minute when we needed her, had no problems coming by for a meet and greet before us leaving and sent us daily updates/pictures of our boys. We will absolutely be booking her for all our of our future pet sitter needs and would hands down recommend her to anyone.”
“She was absolutely wonderful! Very polite, punctual, and always friendly with a smile. I contacted her at the last minute, just one day before I needed her, and she was available and very accommodating. She kept me updated the entire time and made me feel completely comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. I’m very grateful for her help and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”
“Calli did a great job watching my cat and house for several days, and she was flexible accommodating a last minute flight change on my return. She recognized a stressed-out cat who was not used to her owner being away, took her time letting the cat warm up her, and provided updates along the way. You'll be comfortable leaving your pet and house in Calli's hands!”
“MacKenzie & Jacob own 4 cats (no dogs but they sometimes board them) and clearly love animals. My 2 sibling kittens were born feral on my farm and when Mama disappeared, I had to take them in. Did not intend to keep them but these kitties had different plans. I am in the process of training them to spend more time indoors, and interact with other humans and animals. How lucky that I found MacKenzie on Rover. My kitties had their own space (spare bedroom) where I set up their familiar bedding, litter box, food, scratch post, etc. I started with a 24 hour stay and will prob try a few more days before taking a longer trip later this year. MacKenzie sent me regular updates. One kitty was slightly braver, exploring her surrounding. They both allowed MacKenzie and Jacob to pet them (although they admit they were shaking, which is no surprise) and they ate (not much) and used the litter box, but barely left the bedroom. MacKenzie & Jacob put them in their carriers minutes before I arrived (the cats only slightly resisted they said) and brought them downstairs with all of their belongings & helped me load it all up. I am very much looking forward to having my kitties spend more time with these two wonderful cat sitters - even when I don’t need a sitter - bc I want them to get more human and kitty interaction and I believe MacKenzie and Jacob’s home is the ideal environment. They are lovely, kind-hearted sitters who will give my babies the love and patience they need to become less feral and become the 2 house cats I need them to be.”
“Renae is always our first choice for a pet sitter. She recently checked in on our cat while we were gone for a week. She even clipped his nails for us which we super appreciate! She is kind and caring and always sends lots of pictures.”
“Amber was a HUGE help to me. I changed plans twice on her and she was so kind and understanding and even let me book another night unexpectedly!! I also love how much her family loved my fur baby. I will absolutely be asking amber again! 110% recommend!!!”
“Jaclyn was fantastic. She provided detailed updates and photos that reassured us our kitties were in good hands. She gave our needy boy extra attention and snuggle time. She even earned the trust of our shy girl. We will definitely be using Jaclyn again in the future.”
“Hannah is fantastic at communicating how your pet is doing and ensuring that they are cared for during the visits! She truly cares about your pets and you can tell from the messages she sends. I would highly recommend her!”
“Bill (and his wife Marie) went above and beyond in caring for our cats, house, and garden. They sent pictures and updates and we felt so comfortable with them in our home. Thank you both so much!”
“Peggy is our go to pet sitter for our kitty boys. We can tell she spends time with them and makes sure everything is as it should be. It's nice to know we can depend on Peggy time and time again.”
“Michele was great! She dropped in over 4 days to feed, administer medication to and clean up after my 4 cats. My cats were well taken care of and happy. Michele is also very responsive to messages and I was never worried. Would definitely recommend her services.”
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Barnes
Lana took care of our 2 cats while we were gone for 11 days. She did a terrific job. She checked in regularly with us. And dealt calmly with two extra challenges: a cat who occasionally pees on the rug, and an ant infestation. She is bright, cheery, and dependable. We recommend her extremely highly.

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.
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 .
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.
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.
