“We loved Lauren! She was great caring for our kitten with several drop in visits while we were out of town. The pictures she sent were great and our kids loved being able to see their beloved kitten while always from home.”

“Stacey is the best cat sitter I've ever used! I had to leave the country for a month, and she took excellent care of my cat. I received several pictures daily and detailed updates, which reassured me he was in good hands. Even during a building fire alarm, she visited him to ensure his safety.”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a little girl. I grew up in a house who always had some type of animal and learned how to love on them and give them the attention they need. I am currently at home and have a lot of time on my hands. I’m very flexible and cooperative with my schedule and willing to give any animal love and support. I have an invisible fence for my two dogs. One of my dogs has a crate he sleeps in and the other sleeps in whatever bed she wants that night.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 12 years and have experience with dogs, cats, farm animals, and wildlife. My professional animal care experience began as a teenager working at Pine Ridge Pet Resort, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, cleaning, administering medications, monitoring behavior, and providing safe, attentive care in both boarding and daycare settings. Since then, animal care has remained a huge part of my life. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for senior pets, including administering multiple oral medications, insulin injections, and providing extra support for aging dogs with changing mobility and health needs. I also have experience giving medication to cats and caring for puppies. In addition to domestic pet care, I worked at a wildlife rescue center where I assisted with first aid, fluid administration, and hands-on care for injured animals. That experience strengthened my ability to stay calm, observant, and compassionate in high-stress situations. I work 40h each week Monday through Friday, so I am mainly available on the weekends only for now. I am getting married in a year & have 2 degrees, so I have both debt and savings to add to. I am hoping to help care for pets & put every cent earned on Rover towards my debt In my home, I have a full house of 2 dogs and 2 cats. They all get along great, but my senior dog, Daisy, doesn't get along with dogs that don't live with her. Therefore, my home is not available currently for pet sitting, but I am familiar with pet sitting for others in their homes in order to assure their pets feel safe. In my home, I feed 2x/day in an 8 hour period and walk my dogs every 3-4 hours. When it comes to other people's pets, I am open to whatever care routine your animals are used to. No matter how many steps are involved, I can do anything you need done, and I will do it with a smile on my face. I will also respect any and all boundaries in your home and only go in the designated pet areas. I have had multiple people require I stay out of certain rooms, and it has never been an issue. I am deeply appreciative of the trust I am given when caring for pets, so I won't take it for granted by disrespecting your home or boundaries.

About: I grew up around animals and have 2 spoiled, adorable cats myself. I also have experience pet sitting for friends and family as well as dog walking. I work full time, but have flexible lunch breaks, evenings, and weekends. I am very active, so I would love to take your dogs for a walk, hike, or run. I am also free to stay occasional overnights if needed. Since my cats' security is my priority, I will not be able to host your pets in my home. However, I would love to spend time with them in their own space and can keep them company for evenings, weekends, and overnights.

About: I’ve always lived in a household with cats and dogs - growing up, my parents had cats and dogs and now that I live on my own, I have 2 kitties of my own - Pumpkin and Jasper! I have pet sat for neighbors, friends, and coworkers and am always so happy to do it! I work fully remote and have flexible hours, so it is easy for me to drop in! I also could work at your home and spend time with your babies if you have wifi! I live in a 1 bedroom apartment with my 2 kitties. I’ve had them both since they were kittens - one is 5 years old now and the other is 3 years old. They are spoiled with treats, play time, brushing, and kisses!

About: I've been caring for cats for over three years and have hosted more than 10 cats for overnight boarding and drop-in visits. Cats are my focus, and I've learned that the first few days matter most — a new environment can be genuinely stressful for them, so I never rush the process. I live in a large single-family home with plenty of space. Your cat gets their own quiet room to settle into on arrival, with food, water, litter, and hiding spots all to themselves. Most cats relax within 3–7 days, though every cat is different and I always go at their pace. I also have two resident cats (both 2+ years) and a friendly 2-year-old dog. All three are calm and well-socialized. If you'd like your cat to have company, I can introduce them slowly once your cat is comfortable — many guests end up making friends. If you'd rather your cat stay in their own space for the whole stay, that's completely fine too. It's your call. You'll get photos and videos throughout the stay so you can see how your cat is doing. I'm happy to follow your feeding schedule, litter preferences, and any routines that help your cat feel at home. Just let me know what your cat likes and I'll take it from there. I work from home most days, so I'm around for a good part of the day and can check on cats regularly rather than only at set times. Cats get fresh food and water in the morning, litter scooped at least twice a day, and play or quiet company in the evening when they're most active. For boarding guests, I check on the isolation room several times a day — short, calm visits so your cat gets used to me without feeling crowded. I'm home every evening and overnight, so your cat is never alone for long stretches. For drop-in visits, I'm flexible on timing and can usually fit in morning and evening slots. Just tell me the schedule your cat is used to and I'll match it. In my home: I live in a large single-family house with a fenced yard and no cat access to the outdoors — all windows are screened and doors stay closed, so there's no escape risk. Every boarding guest starts in a private room of their own with food, water, litter, a bed, and places to hide. That separation isn't just for introductions — it also keeps things clean and low-stress if your cat is shy or has never boarded before. I have two resident cats and one dog, all friendly and used to visitors. They never have access to a guest's room unless the owner has asked for gradual introductions and the cat is clearly comfortable. Most cats settle in 3–7 days, and I let each cat set the pace. I ask that boarding cats be up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention, and I keep the vet's number and your emergency contact on hand for the whole stay. I'll let you know right away if anything seems off — appetite, litter box, or behavior. In your home: I follow your routine exactly as you've written it — feeding amounts, medication, litter, and any spots your cat likes to be left alone. I keep doors and windows secured, bring in mail or packages if you'd like, and send photos and a short update after every visit so you know what happened while you were away.

“I can't say enough good things about our experience with Hailey! She went above and beyond for us and our cats while we were away for 2 weeks. Her communication was top notch, she sent lots of photos each day, and was incredibly patient with our cats who need to be separated right now. If you are looking for a reliable and kind cat-sitter, look no further!”

About: I am 37 and have worked professionally with dogs for 10 years during my 20s. I began working in a boarding and daycare facility when I was 18. Since that time I have worked for other kennels as I have moved. I received my training certification in 2010 from Animal Behavior College and volunteered extensively at a shelter in Kansas City. I have volunteered with numerous rescue groups providing training and foster homes along with many boarding facilities. I love pet sitting and getting the opportunity to make a animals happy while their parents are away- all the rewards of being the fun aunt :) Experience with pets who have medications/diabetes/special needs. HOUSE SITTING: I work from home, with appointments throughout the day so your pets won't be left alone for long. I am flexible fitting into your pets routines, watering plants, and any other up-keeps that need done while you are away. A majority of the time I work from home while having occasional appointments out of the home. This gives me plenty of flexibility to ensure that your pet gets 1:1 time and gets outside when needed. I like to follow my clients routines so their pet can predict as much as possible. My experience has given me a little bit of the super power to predict the future, which leads to me to taking extra safety steps “just in case”

About: Hello! I study Vet Science at UW Madison and have extensive experience in both dog and cat humane societies, kennels, and have had dogs my whole life and cats for 3 years now. My dogs Jojo and Jagger are very energetic, and Indy is my tortie and the love of my life :) I am always available to talk and will respond quickly to messages! I am available weekends and weekdays, daily hours depending on my class schedule and your availability. I love to engage with pets and learn their body language, I will always have a ball or stick while walking your dog, but also understand when they need a break. My priority is making them feel as at home as possible, while earning experience in the field I love. I have patience for both cats and dogs, and will watch carefully to not over pet, play, or initiate with shy animals. Tell me more about your pet to help me help them be as comfortable as they can be!

“Donna was so caring for my cat Mochi while I was gone. He is still young at 10 months and quite social, and has not done well in the past with drop-in visits alone so I asked Donna if she could house-sit for me while I was gone. She did such a lovely job taking care of Mochi and sending me photo updates - I knew he was well taken care of while I was gone. Thanks Donna!”

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!). I run half marathons so getting good exercise in will be no problem (even in Wisconsin weather!). I'm currently training for distance running, so you can expect great exercise for your pet! Whether it's a long meandering sniff-ari or an intense loop around the neighborhood, I would love to know what fits your dog best. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and caring for them. I have experience with dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, cleaning up after them, and spending time playing and keeping them comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic or more shy and relaxed. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while their owner is away. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. With my background as a former dog groomer and long-term experience in the pet industry, I’m very comfortable caring for animals and enjoy making them feel safe, calm, and cared for. I care for pets by following their normal routine closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any medications. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort, and I’m experienced in handling different temperaments from my time working in boarding facilities and pet care. My goal is to make pets feel safe and cared for as if they were my own.

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 .

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 .

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.
