“Elise provided 5 star care and love for my cat! Very punctual, responds quickly, and has great attention to detail! Allowed me to travel at ease, knowing my kitty was well taken care of!”
“Jackie did an amazing job stopping in on our cat! We felt so comfortable with her in our home and really enjoyed the photos and detailed update after each check in. She took such good care of our baby which was a huge peace of mind! Thanks Jackie!”
“Very professional, and willing to work with schedule changes. Most importantly she took very good care of my newfoundland and cat while I was out of town over the weekend. Anyone on fort drum needing a pet sitter should consider booking her.”
“Justin was very attentive to our instructions and left thorough Rover Cards each visit. Our cats were happy and well-fed, and our house was in great shape when we returned home. He sent pictures every visit, and even brought in an Amazon package for us. We would use him again and recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
About: My dogs are like family and temporarily I would love for some others to be apart of ours as well! My dogs have a routine, walk play walk play. Tons of enrichment, tricks and treats Weekends I can be available anytime. Weekdays it would need to be more walks etc. but I promise they will still get the best care I do not have a fenced yard so at my home it would be walks. With my two little ones (10lb and 20lb) these walks are about 30 minutes each but with bigger dogs it would definitely be longer. At your home I’m willing to use the fenced in yard or walks as well! Each visit regardless of anything, will also be accompanied by fresh water, food if you wish to be placed, snuggles, and lots of patting I’m sure of it!
“I’ve booked with Amanda multiple times now and I am always happy and at peace knowing shes taking care of my cats. Her communication and compassion are top notch. Will definitely continue to book with her.”
“Jillian was incredible. Absolutely stellar in remembering all the directions I rambled through and left great notes/pictures for me after each visit. Jillian is so friendly, Houdini and I both LOVED her!! Highly recommend, will be using Jillian’s services for the foreseeable future. Thank you!!”

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life and have extensive experience with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I am comfortable providing attentive, loving care and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I am experienced with administering medications and making sure pets receive the proper care and attention they need. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and keeping them active and happy.

My home has a fully fenced-in backyard where pets can safely play, relax, and get some fresh air, and I also live right near a walking trail for enjoyable walks and outdoor time. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel right at home throughout their stay.
“Kelly took wonderful care of my two cats over the holidays. She was very professional and communicative, and the cats were clearly cared for and loved when we returned. With her background in vet med, I was very confident in her ability to care for my elderly cat and administer his medication, plus deal with his finicky food preferences, and she handled all of it wonderfully with no issues at all! I would recommend Kelly as a pet sitter to anyone looking. Thank you, Kelly!”
“Alexia was excellent with our two cats. Her experience working at a vet clinic was a great comfort since one cat has had health issues in the past. She went above and beyond to care for him. She was also flexible when our travel schedule changed at the last minute, which was greatly appreciated!”
“Jasmine took amazing care of my cat Deadpool! She was super sweet, followed all the care instructions I provided, and sent me great update photos throughout. Communication was quick and easy, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Black River
Jackie did a few drop-in visits for our cats again and she took incredible care of them as always! She is so considerate and caring, we couldn’t ask for somebody better to care for our babies! Just like the past 2 times, she went above and beyond - doing tasks that she simply didn’t have to, but because she knew it would made our lives easier while we were away. We are so comfortable leaving them in her hands because she truly cares for them just like we would! I would highly recommend her for any future pet care needs!

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.
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 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.
