About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and cats, and I’ve taken care of pets for family, friends, and clients over the years. I’m patient with pets and treat them the same way I’d want someone to treat my own. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality instead of treating every dog or cat the same. I’ll make sure they’re fed, walked, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I also know how important updates are for owners, so I’ll keep you posted with photos while you’re away. Ryan’s on pet duty! :) I’m a college student, so I have a semi-flexible schedule that lets me make time for pet care. I understand that pets are more than just animals - they’re family - and I’ll make sure they get the attention, care, and routine they’re used to. I always communicate with owners and provide updates because I know how important and comforting it is to know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away! I treat every pet like they’re my own and always put their safety and comfort first. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll follow any instructions you leave, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or special requests. I’ll also respect your home and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

She is Very responsive great on communication, trustworthy, attentive, shows up on time and clearly loves animals 🐱. Overall a good person. Would definitely recommend her.”
About: I grew up with dogs around me since I was 10! I have experience with senior dogs and those that are sick or post-op. I also work well with high- (and low) energy dogs! I am also usually the go-to for boarding among my friends and family! 😎 I’m currently working a typical 9am-5pm full time job. My availability are as follows: available for boarding on weekends; can walk your dog(s) or drop-in after 5:30pm on weekdays but anytime on weekends; always available to house-sit! For boarding, I have plenty of space in my home for your fur baby(s)! I can easily crate them if needed. As I recently moved, I had to leave my fur babies behind with my family back home so it won’t be a worry if your fur babies don’t get along with other dogs :) For house-sitting/drop-in visits, anything you and your fur baby’s needs!
“Barbara always takes great care of my cats, and they’re finally warming up to her, which is wonderful because they’re super shy around anyone who’s not me! Thank you so much for caring for them!! :)”
About: Hello, my name is Tyler, and I’ve been a pet owner to my dogs pinky and fendi for the past 14 years. I have also taken care of the dogs of my family and friends, and always make sure that they feel comfortable in their environment. All pets are family to me, and feel comfortable in my care. Looking forward to meeting your fluffy friends! I am currently working in a school, but get out at 3 everyday. So I will be ready to walk your pet for evenings and on weekends. When a pet comes into my home, I try to make them feel as comfortable as possible. When in a clients home, I try to keep them in their regular routine, and make sure that whatever is asked by the owner is completed without fail.
“Amra did an amazing job taking care of my fur babies while I was away. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind. I came home to happy cats and a spotless apartment—everything was clean and exactly as I left it. It's clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I would absolutely hire Amra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter!”

My lizy continue to give her natural love to animals. And I promise lizy she is officially became my dog sitter walker my dog fell in love with her from the day he met her.

About: Dogs have always been a favorite part of my day, and I’m happiest when I get to spend time with them. I’m naturally patient and attentive, and I like getting to know each dog’s personality. I’ll pay attention to their cues, respect their pace, and follow the routines you’ve established for them. Whether your dog wants a long sniff-filled walk, some playtime, or a little extra attention during a drop-in, I’m happy to make their time with me feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable. I’d love to get to know your pup and become someone they’re excited to see! I’m currently a student on summer break, and pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. I love having a reason to get outside, take walks, and spend time with animals. I’m pretty routine-oriented, so once I know your pet’s schedule and needs, I’m happy to stick to it. I’m pretty easygoing, but I take routines and commitments seriously. I’ll keep my availability up to date as my schedule changes, and I’ll always communicate if anything comes up. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. Before a walk or drop-in, I like to learn about their routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and anything important I should know. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, stay attentive throughout each visit, and make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need. I’m also happy to send updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re being looked after by someone who genuinely cares.
“Okay, I have to rave about this sitter for a sec. My cat is usually pretty shy around new people, but she won him over almost immediately; no idea how, but I'm not complaining! She sent photo/video updates every day I was gone, which honestly made the trip so much more relaxing. Litter box clean, feeding on point, and she even picked up on him being a little mopey one day and gave him some extra snuggle time without me even asking. Also grabbed my package that was outside the door, which was such a nice bonus. I came home to a happy, chill cat and zero stress. 10/10, would book again in a heartbeat. If you need someone trustworthy and clearly obsessed with animals, this is your person!”
About: I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person who truly loves being around both dogs and cats. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I’m happy to follow their needs and give them plenty of attention. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel happy and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule (morning or evening) and enjoy giving pets the attention, care, and companionship they need I care for pets with patience, love, and attention to their individual routines. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully, keep their space clean, provide fresh food and water, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
“Natalya took care of our cat while we were away for a long weekend. From my first interaction with Natalya, she was warm, responsive and responsible. Every interaction thereafter confirmed these impressions. Our cat took to her immediately when she first came in for an introduction - not something he does easily with most people (usually just hides). While we were away, Natalya sent photos and updates during her drop in visits. She definitely put our mind at ease that our cat was in good hands and being taken care of. I highly recommend Natalya and would not hesitate to use her services again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 15 years & currently have four of my own. I’m comfortable with different breeds, personalities, & routines, and I treat every pet like family. I currently work weekdays and am available after work, with more flexibility on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays . I’ll always provide updates and reliable care. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I follow all care instructions, keep routines consistent, and provide regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bensonhurst
Sunny is simply amazing!!! Within a few minutes into the ‘Meet n Greet’ , I knew I wanted her to cat sit whilst I was away. She has an easy, warm, cheerful personality and asked lots of pertinent questions. My only concern was that my Siamese princesses didn’t come out during the ‘Meet n Greet’, however from Day 1, Sunny found a way to entice them from under the bed and every time she visited she sent lots of pictures of them happily playing with her and lounging in her lap (something one of my cats rarely does with me hahah). Sunny provided detailed communications from every visit, I felt totally at ease and was able to fully enjoy my vacation. I can’t thank Sunny enough- she’s the best!! I was so happy that whilst on my current vacation, I booked Sunny for my next one . If you want happy, well cared for cats, and to enjoy your vacation without concern- book Sunny!!
Kay was an angel with our cats!! Miso and Tofu are so particular, but Kay took to them immediately and they loved her! She was able to adjust to their medical needs and kept me up to date every day with the cutest pictures. I will 100% be using her again for my next trip!
Lucy was great! She did a drop in on the day that was in the middle of a week away from my two cats (my girls). I felt like the drop in by a nice person would be a help to the girls spending time together without me. Lucy is real nice/friendly person - is very easy to communicate with. My girls are both shy so they weren’t “hanging out” with Lucy - BUT when I got home I could tell they were fine and truly believe that her drop in mid- week kept them calm and less lonely. I HIGHLY recommend her!! and will use her again when I need to leave the girls alone. A plus is that she sent pics! along with a note about how things were going!
Amazing sitter, thoughtful and considerate. My scaredy cat, who runs away from almost anybody new (and usually his own shadow), felt comfortable to come up to her and ask for attention. When I say that has never happened before, I mean that. I can't think of higher praise.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
