“Nathan was a fantastic help taking care of our cat while we were away. He was very communicative with how our cat was doing and with any questions he had which was greatly appreciated.”
“Lily was thankfully able to take my cat for a week on short notice! Our previous sitter had an emergency and had to cancel, so we are so incredibly grateful Lily could take her at the last minute. Lily was very sweet and her own two cats, Earl and Finn, also showed my cat a bunch of love as well. Lily followed care instructions to a tee and I could not be happier with her service. While I was away, I received updates and photos every day which was super reassuring. 10/10 would book again!”
About: I’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for years and genuinely love spending time with animals. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s normal routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping them company. I’ve also given pets medications when needed, so I’m comfortable following instructions and making sure they receive their medication properly. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets and work around their normal routine. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting depending on what you and your pet need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routine and any instructions provided. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s space, and I always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and given plenty of attention while you’re away.
“Amber is dependable, detail-oriented, and makes sure everything is taken care of. Totoro and Sushi are well-fed and happy while we’re away. It’s great to have someone we can count on— we definitely recommend her!”
About: I trained my reactive childhood dog at 16, and had great success! After he passed, I began volunteering at my local shelter. I can’t afford a dog right now, so I have much love saved up to share with everyone else’s dogs! I work part time, and I’m in school. I’m free Mondays after 2pm and Wednesdays after 2pm - Thursday before 4pm for an overnight stay. I have a separate unit in my home where my cats stay when dogs come over, so don’t worry if your dog isn’t cat friendly! I have a large fenced yard, with lots of things to sniff and squirrels to chase.
“Jasmine is an amazing cat-sitter! Most sitters on this site are dog focused, so when she told us she has a cat of her own we were so much more comfortable with hiring her. She is very punctual and always sends adorable update pictures showing exactly the steps that we asked her for. Our cat loves her so much, he was more excited to see her than us when we got home from our trip. 100% would recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for a cat-sitter!”
About: I've had multiple pets all my life and seen many into old age, when they need special care. I'm not just looking for the perfect rpretty pet, but I want you to feel confident and at ease with the care and love I will give your furry family member I'm retired so can give full time care to your pet. My yard is large and fully fenced in. the house is pet friendly as well. I am retired so mostly home but do go out occasionally for shopping and other daily activities. I would prefer to crate your dog for my out periods. Also your dogs should be house broken, I will take them out as often as needed for bathroom breaks I will treat all your pets as if they were my own, and hope we can build a long and trusting relationship with each other. If they like pets, cuddles and treats, that's even better!
About: I am the proud owner of 2 rabbits so I have experience working with shy animals. I am also my family and friend's go to person for pet sitting. I am told I have a welcoming and calming vibe that pets love. I am currently in school for Medical Assisting and working Thursday -Monday. I’m available right now only Tuesday and Wednesday. If you need someone to take your dog on a morning run or walk I can definitely help you with that. I am very attentive of pets. My two bunnies do not make much noise so I constantly need to be watching them and what they do. They also speak with their body language so I will listen to your pets visual and audio signals.

About: I dog sit of my friend dog once a while for almost 5 years. She normally stay with me more than 7 days. I’m good at take her out for a walk even during raining day. I love to give them belly rub. I spend most of my weekend at home so I have time to take care pet during the weekend. I like to take pet wherever I go, otherwise I feel bad for leave them at home for a long time. I live in a two story townhouse with 2 bedrooms, offering plenty of space for small dogs to comfortably move around and go up and down the stairs. There’s a community park right outside my home, and I love spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and make sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air, especially if they enjoy being active.
“Daria went above and beyond caring for Boon! It gave me such peace of mind to feel my kitty was being excellently taken care of. I truly appreciate her care, attention to detail, and regular communication each day of my trip. She also sent me the cutest pictures and videos of Boon. Thanks so much Daria!”
“Elizabeth was super sweet to our two skittish tuxedo cats. She did her best to get close to them and made sure they were well taken care of while we were gone. I felt very safe and secure with Elizabeth around to care for our cats.”
“Samiah is amazing! She treated our cats with such love and they really enjoyed her company. Samiah went above and beyond to handle any complications that arose and communicated clearly and effectively. I felt so at ease with her watching the animals, I would definitely book her again!”
“Rachel Ann was a lifesaver for us when we needed last-minute care for our cat, Freya. Our cat needed two new prescriptions administered twice daily and her food preferences had also just changed. Rachel Ann was an absolute professional in caring for Freya and even adjusted the visit times to accommodate how our cat was responding. She was very loving and sent daily updates and photos. We will definitely request Rachel Ann again and we recommend her to anyone who needs routine or advanced care for their cat.”
About: Hello all! ☺️🐾 My name is Andrea and I am excited to spend time with your fur babies! I have had pets my whole life, I love spending time with them and caring for such beautiful animals. My dog, Benny, passed away in 2024, I had Benny for almost 17 years before he passed, I was devastated after his passing. I still think about him everyday. I took Benny on walks everyday and made sure to dedicate time for him throughout my day. I have not had the heart to get a new dog since Benny but I am still a work in progress and am sure that I will build up the courage to get a new fur baby someday. I’ve spent a few years taking care of family and friends pets and have always enjoyed their company, because of this I have decided to dedicate some time to take care of other fur babies! I love the feeling of being with animals, they bring so much comfort and warmth, these animals are our babies and deserve the world. 💕🐾 I’m excited to get to know you all! 😃 Apart from this I am a full time college student, I was born and raised in the Bay Area, I enjoy nature and hikes! I am currently a full-time college student but I have a flexible schedule Friday afternoon, Saturday mornings and Sunday mornings for those who enjoy going out on weekends. Please reach out for exact times and dates 😊 I want every pet to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow your care instructions, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated! 🐾💕
About: I started as a dog handler in 2016 and from there, I completely fell in love with caring for animals. While working as a handler, I had the amazing opportunity to learn dog behavior so doggy language is my second language! I have experience in helping train dogs, I’ve trained my own dog who knows many tricks and basic commands. Additionally, I have experience working with more shy and skiddish pups so I bring a more attentive, and calm demeanor to those who need it. I’ve worked with small dogs, medium dogs and big dogs. I am also comfortable administering medications. I am currently accepting clients who need daily drop in care and evening walks. I do have my 8 month old who will attend with me but he will stay in his car seat as he’s very content doing so. He would not attend evening walks if that is a service you are interested in. Whether you need your pet crated, put in a secure room or left with a couple extra treats, I’d be happy to oblige by whatever you require for the safety and comfortability for your pet.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have been apart of the Rover community for around 2 years now. I am also insured! I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the park or hiking where they can interact with other animals while you're away! My routine is Monday-Sunday anytime and i dont have anything that is blocking this job, I'm flexible reliable on any days if needed thank you! I will not be able to house your pets in my house due to my own pets not getting along with other dogs and cats.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Benicia
Beth was fabulous. I trusted her from the first meeting. She asked all the right questions. She came early in the morning because that was what my kitty was used to, even though it must have been inconvenient for her and I said she didn't need to come that early. She went above and beyond in every way and I will use her services again for sure!
Elizabeth took wonderful care of our cat, Theo, while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon! She truly went above and beyond, even dealing with our smoke alarm that kept beeping, trying to fix it herself, changing out the Litter Genie, and bringing in our trash bins. We really appreciated her willingness to help with things outside of just caring for Theo. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we were away. We’re so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely book with her again! Highly recommend!
Thea has been cat sitting for my family for 2-3 years on Rover, whenever we go out of town. When we come home, the cats are always perfectly taken care of, and just mildly annoyed and dramatic, as you’d expect cats to be :) Thea is always super responsive and we trust her completely in our home.
Linda was very gracious and flexible to help out when I made last-minute plans to my trip. She continued to send daily photos of my kitty Scooter during daily check-ins, which left me feeling relieved to see him getting some socialization. Loved the videos she sent of her petting and talking to him!
Telena has watched our shy kitty only twice, but has somehow managed to bring her out of her shell!! It normally takes our cat a long time before she warms up to people and she will usually just hide the whole time. But this time she came out and hung out with Telena which is so cool to see! Telena is super patient and kind with our cat, and very responsive while we’re out of town. I highly recommend her services !! Thanks Telena !!

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.
