“Jeffrey was great!! He was very accommodating and attentive. He came over to meet our cats before we left to ensure that there would not be an extra stress, and to ensure that they would get along. He listened to me engage with our standoffish cat to know how to talk with her. I appreciated everything he did for us while we were out of town!!”
“Kendall was awesome with my cat when we went out of town! She responds in a timely manner whenever you have questions. I will definitely book with her again when we go out of town.”
“I adopted an 8 year old cat. The only person she will allow to touch her is me. Usually hisses at everyone else even my husband. This the third time Brooke cared for Dolly she was sitting on Brooke’s lap getting pets. Brooke the cat whisperer does a fantastic job.”
About: I've grown up around two cats (short hair male and long hair female), birds (parakeets), and leopard geckos (one male one female). I have dogsat a variety of sizes (including a female husky) and did some dog walking a few years ago (a pit bull female) I currently work less than full time and go to college less than full time so I have a fairly open and flexible schedule, to make it slightly easier with planning I work I would be available everyday besides Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am flexible in availability and can follow any special instructions you may have about your pets specific needs, even weird quirky routines they may have! I am very adaptable and more than willing to stay with you pets or animals at your home or just drop in and check on them when needed!
“They were awesome! Our poor dog was stressed out over the 4th of July holiday and they went above and beyond to make continuous check ins to ensure our pup was doing good. Would recommend 10/10 times.”
“Kyla was wonderful and responsive and her photos showed how comfortable the cats were with her. She gave meds, did eye ointments and provided excellent care. We highly recommend her.”
“I was so glad to find someone that showed the attention to detail and communication that we were seeking. It’s never easy to leave your babies behind, but Jaycee puts attention to detail in the rover card that makes me feel like I was there. Will absolutely be booking again.”

“Robin was amazing with my four cats. They are all on the shy side and mostly hid in her bathroom. They had plenty of room to play and she sent plenty of pictures. She is great with animals and does really well communicating which eased my worries.”

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.
