“Highly recommend Maya! Maya provided drop-in visits for our two dogs and four rabbits, and everything went smoothly. Communication was great throughout, she was always prompt, and it was clear our pets were well cared for. We really appreciated the reliability and attention. We will be booking Maya again.”
About: Hi! I’m a big animal lover and have been around dogs for about 7 years. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m really comfortable with both small and big pups. I’ve also helped friends take care of their cats before. I’m patient, gentle, and pretty attentive. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, and just making sure your pet feels safe and happy. I’ve also used another walking app, so I’m used to meeting different dogs with different personalities. I treat every pet like my own and always try to pay attention to what they need 😊 My schedule is flexible, and I’m available on weekends as well. I can spend plenty of time with your pet and provide consistent care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions carefully and always stay attentive during walks and at home. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and well looked after at all times.
“We’ve been repeat customers, and this is our third time working with Dakota. Once again, he exceeded our expectations! During our two-week vacation in Asia (with a 15hr time difference), he went above and beyond to handle unexpected situations, including addressing a low-battery smoke detector alarm, cleaning up after our cat’s throw-up on the couch (luckily he is a dad and clearly skilled at handling little accidents), and even refilling the litter in the Litter Robot. Dakota’s attentiveness and proactive approach made our trip so much less stressful, knowing that both our cat and our home were in such capable hands. We’re so grateful for his care and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated sitter. Thanks, Dakota!”
“Quinn and Kat are the best! Highly recommend. I had Quinn drop in to feed/hang with my cat Skippy and it was such a relief. He got to stay home while I had to go out of town and still had some there to care for him. Can’t thank you enough! 10/10”
“Jenrae is amazing! We have utilized her services on several occasions for drop-ins to take care of our cat Bella. Shes has always done a great job in making sure she is fed and watered each and even takes the time to spend time and play with her. Shes very good natured and apt in taking care of all animals.”
“I moved to the area about 3 years ago and Anne has been the go to person when I need someone to look after my cat Leonard. She is good with Leonard who tends to be a bit shy and she’s good at keeping me informed.”
About: I have always been around dogs and am comfortable helping dogs of any age, size, and need. Working as a veterinary assistant and earning a degree in animal science has helped me build a strong connection to caring for dogs. I am very comfortable with pets that need an extra level of medical care. I work full time 4 days a week and have a bit of a long commute (I will likely be out of the house 6:00 AM - 7:30 PM Mondays - Wednesdays and Fridays for work). My weekends tend to be more free, though most days I can provide care in the evenings or very early mornings. I am happy to stay in pets’ homes to provide overnight care and housesitting. I can easily get into the pets’ routines and provide other house care as needed.
“I’m glad we found Sofia to take care of our cat while we were traveling. She completed all tasks and gave us an update every time she stopped by. Highly recommend and will rebook with Sofia.”

About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. I have had my own dog since I was 11, so I understand the responsibility, patience, and attention that pets need every day. I have also cared for hamsters and have experience watching my family’s pets as well as neighbors’ pets.

About: Hi there! My name’s Emma, I'm 25 years old. I’m a Dog and Cat Mama to three of my own fur babies, and work part time for the local school district. I've raised animals my whole life, and started pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors at 12, and I took care of the same animals regularly for nearly 6 years. Taking care of animals is second nature for me, and it's a fun way to help pay the bills. I do also have experience with epileptic dogs, elderly animals, and pets who need medicine regularly administered. Please feel free to message me with any questions! I work for the school district almost full time so have limited availability throughout the school year, with more availability during “winter break” and full time availability throughout summer break. I am only able to go to client's homes, I do not have the space to house client's pets. That being said, I treat and care for every animal as if it was my own. For client's I make myself daily checklists for the pets needs to make sure I never miss a thing.
About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember! My experience caring for pets goes all the way back to childhood, and over the years, I’ve developed a genuine appreciation for the unique personalities and needs of every animal. I believe that building trust is one of the most important parts of caring for a pet. I always take the time to help animals feel comfortable, safe, and loved, whether they’re energetic and playful or a little shy and reserved. I understand that pets are family, and I know how important it is to have someone dependable looking after them while you’re away. My goal is to provide the same level of attention, patience, and affection that I would want for my own pets. As a pilot, I also have volunteer experience with flying shelter animals across the state to reach their new home where they find love and comfort. This experience has helped me learn the best way to keep animals calm through situations that could otherwise be stressful for them. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and making sure they receive the care and companionship they deserve! I currently work full-time in Livermore, with shifts typically running from either 6 AM–2 PM or 10 AM–6 PM. Fortunately, my schedule allows for some flexibility, and I’m happy to coordinate with pet owners to find times that work best for everyone! Depending on my work schedule, I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits, as well as pet care on my days off. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate their needs while making sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! My home offers a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for supervised outdoor playtime and exploration. We also have two small, friendly dogs who enjoy meeting new furry friends! I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I always take introductions slowly and make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I also respect each pet’s individual needs, whether they love socializing or prefer a quieter environment. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make it a priority to follow their established routines and their owner’s instructions as closely as possible. I believe that consistency, patience, and communication are essential to building trust. I’m also happy to provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands!
About: Currently taking reservation for November and December!! Christmas sitting still available on calendar :) Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :) Currently taking online classes. Would be ideal for pet parents who want someone to be at the house often for daily routine, but also able to step away for up to 4 hrs at a time few days of the weekdays (usually Mon, Fri). Weekends I am almost always available all day. Almost always at home for morning, afternoon potty breaks, evening, overnight. When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.
About: A Housesitter across North America for several years now, I have built a wealth of experience with a variety of animals and homes . I worked as a dog sitter and walker in NYC for five years, raised my own puppy from 8 weeks old. Then traveled to the West, housesitting my way across the country from VA to CA, OR and CO. I provide daily photo and video updates of your pets and can make framed prints available to order. I have had pets in the home since I was a child, including birds and hamsters as well as cats, kittens and dogs. I am currently looking for summer work, having worked as a Ski Instructor all winter in Arapahoe Basin. When housesitting, it is my principal job and priority. I do not currently offer care for a pet in my home, unless of course, they are happy living and traveling in my Class C motorhome.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Blackhawk
Tasha was a great sitter and was super communicative about her drop-in visits. She came to do a meet and green in person and made sure she asked any questions that may help with the care of the cats. She also sent photos during the visits and provided a status update on how they were doing. Would book Tasha again for our cats.
Julia was wonderful! Our cat, Stormy, took to her immediately when they met for the first time. Julia took great care of Stormy, and followed instructions to the letter. She was punctual, kept to the agreed schedule, provided daily detailed communications / updates and kept the house tidy and in order. We will definitely use Julia again! Thanks for taking great care of Stormy!

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
