“Emily is so dependable! I couldn’t be happier! She is quick to respond, and she goes above and beyond to care for our Herc. I am so thankful for Emily and her desire to care for our pets!”
“We are returning clients with Almu . (She is compassionate and responds promptly to any questions we may have, while on our trip. She sends us pictures of him each visit. We totally trust her with our Pup!!!”
“Kayla was awesome and provided us with updates that made me feel so much better about being away! We have one kitty that likes to hide and is very scared and she even made sure to find her and let us know she was okay. Thank you so much for taking care of our 3 kitties!!!”
“Limor did an amazing job caring for my cat with PICA. They followed all instructions perfectly, kept me updated, and ensured his safety and happiness. Highly recommend for anyone needing a caring, attentive pet sitter.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Sally provided for my cats while I was out of town for Thanksgiving! This was my first time leaving them with her and I was a bit nervous, but she exceeded all expectations. When I returned, everything was clean and tidy, and my cats were as happy and relaxed as ever. I am so grateful to have found her, and would highly recommend Sally to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Stephanie has been absolutely amazing with my dog! He is scared of pretty much everything, not just new people, so it can take a lot of patience and understanding for him to truly feel comfortable. Stephanie took the time to get to know him, learn what makes him comfortable, and let him warm up to her on his own terms. She never rushed him and always goes above and beyond to make sure he feels safe and cared for. She is so sweet, patient, and genuinely concerned about his comfort and well-being. That means so much to me because I know my dog isn’t always the easiest to win over. Knowing that Stephanie is willing to put in the extra time and effort to make him feel secure gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. I’m extremely grateful to have found her, and I will absolutely be using her again! I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like their own. ❤️🐾”
“Tracy did an excellent job! He was very attentive and caring with my dog, provided regular updates to let me know how the visits went, and was very responsive whenever I needed to reach out. I will absolute book with him again”
About: With a lifelong passion for animals and years of experience caring for multiple pets, I bring a unique level of knowledge and compassion to every pet I care for. As a recent graduate of an accredited veterinary school and an experienced animal shelter volunteer, I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities and needs. Your pets will receive attentive, loving care from someone who truly understands how much they mean to your family. I currently have a flexible daily schedule and am available throughout the day and night to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I have temporarily stepped away from in-clinic employment as I prepare for my veterinary licensing exam, allowing me to dedicate my time and attention to pet sitting and ensuring your pets receive consistent, loving care. My home is well-equipped to provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment for overnight and in-home pet sitting. I have a securely fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, as well as two friendly dogs who can provide companionship for pets who enjoy socializing. A kennel is available for small to medium-sized dogs when needed, and the home’s hardwood floors make cleanup easier in the event of occasional potty accidents. Pets are also welcome on the furniture, so they can relax and feel at home. I also have experience caring for senior and chronically ill pets, including administering medications as needed. I understand that every pet has unique routines and needs, and I am committed to providing patient, attentive, and compassionate care throughout their stay.
“Tasha was wonderful when watching our cat. She kept us up to date and well informed while we were away. She sent us the best pictures of our cat that made us smile.”
About: With 10+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I go beyond basic pet sitting to provide personalized, attentive care. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Reliable, detail-oriented, and always keeping you updated—you can trust your pets are in great hands. I provide reliable, attentive pet care for both cats and dogs, with over 10 years of experience. Working around a flexible schedule with 3 night shifts a week, I’m available during the day to ensure pets get consistent feeding, walks, playtime, and personalized care. I focus on building trust with every animal, keeping routines steady, and giving owners peace of mind with every visit. I provide safe, reliable pet care in both my home and clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and medications if needed. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, calm, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind with consistent updates.
About: I've cared for dogs for many years through my own pets, regularly caring for friends' and family members' dogs, and volunteering with animals at a shelter. During college, I frequently watched dogs/cats for classmates while they were away, including providing feeding, walks, playtime, and general supervision. I also provided extended care for an active-duty military friends dog while they were deployed. I currently have my own dog and am comfortable following individual routines and making sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m primarily available Friday evenings through Sunday, with my weekend availability running until around 7 PM on Sunday. I can also accommodate shorter weekday visits, such as potty breaks or walks, between approximately 6–8 PM when needed (just send a message first!). I work full-time during the week, so I’m mainly a weekend sitter and am happy to provide consistent weekend care. I take pet safety and individual routines seriously and will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and other care needs. For drop-in visits, I can provide potty breaks, neighborhood walks, or supervised playtime, including trips to the dog park when appropriate. I have my own friendly dog, Millie, so dogs staying in my home would need to be comfortable around other dogs. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular outdoor walks and supervised exercise.
“Yuki had a wonderful time with our pet sitter! She had so much fun playing with their pets and came home happy and well cared for. They were incredibly kind, friendly, and made us feel comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, with prompt responses and updates that gave us peace of mind. Their home is also very convenient to ours, which made drop-off and pick-up easy. We couldn't be happier with the experience and will definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
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 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.
