About: I’ve been rescuing and taking care of my own cats since I was 12. My pets are my family (moved them with me across continents) so I get the stress of being away. I have a 19 year old car and two 12 year olds. I know how to take care of cats from the day they are born to senior cats. I work full time as a teacher and I am available for home visits after 3 PM every day besides Sundays. Sundays I would only be able to stop by early morning . I can provide any care your cats need. I currently take care of my cat with kidney disease and I do her transfusions myself. I can also administer medication or anything else your baby might need.
“Our first time using rover and will definitely be a returning client of Stacey. She was super patient, communicative and attentive to our shy kitty, scarlit. Thank you for everything Stacey!”
“Tammy takes great care of my cat! This is the second time that I booked with Tammy and she continued to do an excellent job. She is very communicative and is a genuine animal lover who goes above and beyond.”
“Kate-Lynn really went above and beyond. You can tell she truly cares about our furry loved ones and helped to make them feel comfortable while we were gone. Her updates gave us the piece of mind that our babies were great hands!”
“Alyssa was very thoughtful and took great care of our cats. They were immediately comfortable with her and it’s clear she has a lot of experience with animals. She also managed our older cat’s multiple medications very well!”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time booking a sitter for our cat. Sarah was wonderful and very attentive to our cat's needs. Our main concern with leaving was that our cat would be lonely and get no mental stimulation but Sarah made sure that she was cared for and got lots of play time! Sarah was very kind and very accommodating. We look forward to having her cat-sit again!”
“Jacqueline is an awesome sitter. My kitties were so happy and healthy when we got home. She's great at making sure our cat got his medicine everyday and that they both felt loved. She also did a great job housesitting and making sure my garden survived our time away.”
“I chose Susan to watch our dogs while we were gone one night because she had great reviews. I'm happy to say she lived up to the previous reviews and took great care of our pups! I really liked her detailed updates and pictures she sent me whenever she dropped in. Would definitely recommend!”
“Our cat had never been alone for extended time before. Mary was very kind, spending time with him to play and make sure that he was comfortable with her. She was reliable and tool of his needs and kept us updating with Oreo's well being, which made us feel at ease while away.”
“Britney is the best! She saved me when a pet sitter canceled last minute before our trip. She was able to fit in a last minute meet and greet before we left, and I felt super comfortable leaving my cat in her care! She spent the correct amount of time at our house and made our cat feel loved and cared for, took in our mail, and even cleaned up a little mess our cat made. I look forward to booking with Britney again for future trips.”
“Victoria was so great with our cats! She was able to help us with a last minute schedule change, and made sure our cats were comfy and happy while we were away. We are so glad we could book her!”
About: Hello, I’m SirJahad! I have over 11 years of experience caring for cats through both personal ownership and cat sitting for clients, friends, and family. Over the last 2 years, I’ve also gained experience caring for dogs through pet sitting for friends and family members. My experience includes feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly enjoy being around animals and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to provide dependable, patient, and attentive care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs extra comfort. At the end of the day, my goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and feel confident that they received the same care, attention, and respect that I’d want for my own fur babies. Thank you for the opportunity, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Currently working a full time schedule. I clock in at 7:30am & finish between 2:30-3:30pm depending on the week. If you’d like my services anywhere between those times, just need 5 days to a week’s notice prior to booking. Typically free Saturday & Sundays. I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet sitting. During our meet and greet, I ask plenty of questions so I can follow your instructions as closely as possible. I’ll make sure your home remains secure, clean, and respected while you’re away. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing, and I’ll always communicate anything that seems unusual.
“Took wonderful care of my 2 cats. Both are shy but she managed to have one out playing with her after a few days. Looking forward to having Eileen watch my cats again in the future.”
“Katia was a literal godsend for us. This was our first time trying Rover and having someone stop over to care for our cats while on vacation. This may be the first time in years where we literally had no stress regarding the care our cats were receiving. Katia was on time for every appt., and kept us updated throughout our whole trip. Katia will definitely be our go to cat sitter for any future getaways.”
“Myranda sat for my two cats and did a great job. My cats are shy but she was able to get pictures each day and one came out during her sit. She is very responsible and followed my instructions (probably too many!) to a T. It was a great comfort to me knowing she was taking care of them while we were away. I highly recommend her to anyone with cats or dogs. She’s a gem!!!”

About: I've loved taking care of dogs of all kinds of my own and friends and family from a young age! Currently I have a two at home and know how much of a part of the family they are. My goal is to meet your needs for your pups and keep them comfortable when you need to be away from home! I am currently a student and only working part time so have plenty of time in the mornings and late afternoon/evening to care for and check in on your pets! I am very open and flexible to you and your pets needs! Comfortable with crating your pup if needed or bringing them out for walks. My goal is to make sure they are well cared for and comfortable based on your routine!
About: I have owned dogs my whole life, and I have one at the moment. Knowing this, you can probably tell I am well trained for the job and that I love animals. I will play with your energetic pup, or I will cuddle with your lazy seniors! I am home 24/7, allowing me to pay full attention, and I am willing to take your dog for walks as much as needed. There are no cats or children in my home for your dog to worry about, but I do have a dog of my own. I work from home full time :) This allows me to pay close attention to your pup & ensure they have the best, most eventful stay! I have a fenced yard & another dog that your pup can hang out with. My dog sleeps in bed with me, but if putting them in a crate is preferred, I will do so.

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.
