“Rebecca was very communicative throughout my trip and took great care of our cat Chikoo. She ensured that he felt comfortable the whole time and we felt very confident leaving our cat with her. Would definitely book her again!”
“Jessica has been great with my boy Charlie as we navigate separation anxiety in our new home. She shows up on-time with a great attitude (even when it’s early morning). Charlie is relaxed around her and I know he’s in good hands while I’m away. Thank you!!!”
“Lydia dropped by our home again yesterday and my cat couldn’t be happier to see her again- I can travel for work having peace of mind knowing she will be the one checking in on him”
“Emily was very attentive and kind to my cats while I was out of town, and she communicated with me clearly and consistently. She also helped me super last minute, which I’m so so appreciative of — would definitely book with her again!”
“Maria was absolutely wonderful! She dropped by to check on my cats, cleaned out their litter boxes, and spent plenty of time giving them love and pets. She was super friendly, followed all care instructions, and kept me updated. Fantastic communication and care. I would love to hire her again and highly recommend her!”
“Jaron was amazing while my husband and I were away for a week. Jaron watched our two kitties and went out of the way to make sure that they were cared for during the crazy ice storm that came through! Jaron always sent many photos and great updates, so that I knew that the kitties were good. The whole situation could have been very stressful, but Jaron really did a great job taking care of them.”
“It was our first time working with Sandra, but not the last! She was a pleasure to work with, and our cats loved her (especially our girl cat, she kept climbing on her shoulder!). Very irresponsible, plenty of pictures, and great communications. Thank you, Sandra!”
“Another fantastic experience! This is a repeat booking for us, and Shao was perfectly on time, sent lots of pictures, and took such good care of my dogs just like before. It is a huge relief knowing I have a go-to sitter I can always trust!”
“Seng is very responsible and gets the details right. She's always punctual and keeps me in the loop, sending over pics of my two cats. One of my cats is usually pretty shy around people, but he's taken a shine to Seng. Definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi! My name is Walter, and I’m a caring and responsible dog lover with years of experience. I am Deaf and use American Sign Language (ASL), but I communicate easily through text messaging in the app. I always respond quickly and clearly. I have a flexible schedule, and I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I can adjust to your dog’s needs and routine. I understand how important your dog is to you, and I will treat them like my own family. I’m patient, gentle, and focused on your dog’s safety and happiness. I can help with walks, drop-in visits, and sitting. I make sure your dog gets attention, exercise, and lots of love. I send regular photo and message updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. I’m reliable, on time, and easy to communicate with. I would love to meet you and your dog!

Also, I am happy to play with them anytime when they want to.
“Mystyc and her partner did a great job taking care of my cat, Ming. Mystyc sent updates about Ming and even went out of her way to buy some extra food for Ming when it seemed like the amount I brought wasn’t going to be enough. They were also flexible about extending my booking which was a huge help. I would definitely leave my cat with Mystyc again!”
About: I grew up around small dogs, cats, and even koi fish! I work remotely and have the flexibility to drop in for visits, walks, and playtime for your furry friend (I will love reptiles from a distance). I have experience with pet medications/vitamins, senior pet assistance, and hiking/long walks. To me, pets are like family, and I understand the importance of making sure they are safe, comfortable, and cared for. Working remotely gives me a flexible daily schedule to pop in for walks, feeding, and dedicated play sessions. I focus on giving every pet personal attention so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. If your dog loves adventure, weekend hikes are always an option! I bring a detail-oriented, respectful approach to every visit so you can have complete peace of mind: Respecting Your Home: I strictly follow house rules (no shoes, no eating, leaving your space exactly as I found it). Tailored Care: I closely follow your exact instructions to ensure your pet's routine stays consistent. Reliable Service: Patient, punctual, organized, and truly dedicated to keeping your pet safe and loved.
“Alexis was phenomenal! She took excellent care of our kitties, was proactive about bring in packages and sweeping litter, and she wrote the most wonderful updates with lots of pictures! Will definitely book again.”
“I would highly recommend Ria. She was punctual and a good communicator, quick to respond to all messages. She also was extremely helpful with our request to take care of our neighbours cat for a couple of days as well. Our place was clean when we got home and our cats didn’t seem distressed from our prolonged absence. I got lots of pictures which were great and in many of them my cats were cuddling up to Ria, it was very comforting. I would book her again.”
“We engaged Chenyang for several drop-in visits to take care of our cats. She is very responsible, communicative, and punctual. She’s detail-oriented and took photos of her work to assure us that everything was in order. She’s very kind and gentle to pets and our cats warmed up to her very quickly. We would definitely work with her next time!”
“Christal was great with Koda! I always stress leaving him behind when I travel, but Christal was able to keep my well informed with detailed updates, photos, and videos of koda throughout the booking! Koda was in a really great mood when I came back!! Would recommend Christal!”
“Caroline was a lifesaver! The thought of leaving our kitty at home with a stranger for 16 days was nerve-wracking, to say the least! Thankfully, we found Caroline, and she took the anxiety out of the equation. She took care to follow out instructions and maintain Tatsu's kitty routine with minimal disruption. In addition, Caroline gave regular updates and communicated in detail about how things were going. It was clear from her communication that Tatsu had settled in well with her new caregiver. When we returned home, we found a healthy and content little cat and a spotless home. We are deeply grateful for Caroline's cat sitting and would highly recommend her for anyone seeking a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m Kiran, and animals are truly my passion. I have over 3 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I currently own a high-energy dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable with active pups who need extra exercise, structure, and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just sticking to a solid routine, I’ve got it covered. I work part-time and recently graduated from college, which means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and playtime. I do work from 11-4 on Mondays and 8-2 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I can try and work around that if needed! I’ve cared for pets for neighbors, family, and friends, and many of them continue to refer me to others because they trust how patient, reliable, and attentive I am. I treat every dog like my own, whether that means daily walks, feeding, playtime, medication reminders, or lots of love and cuddles. I understand how important it is to feel confident and at ease when leaving your pet, and I’m committed to providing safe, loving, and dependable care while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and playtime on weekdays and weekends, and I offer housesitting as well. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities during walks and drop-in visits. I use secure leashes and harnesses as instructed and stay alert to my surroundings at all times. In your home, I carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs. I move at your pet’s pace!

Lydia was a fantastic sitter! She gave me daily updates with multiple photos. I see my bunny Alistair was well taken care of and so were my plants! She even restocked my buns romaine lettuce when he ran out. It was very much appreciated! I would book with Lydia again when I need care for my bun!
Mystyc (and Jai) took excellent care of our two cats while we were away for 3 weeks! They followed all instructions perfectly, were awesome at sending over regular reports and photos during the scheduled check-ins and even helped to take packages in. I came back to neat litterboxes and our cats were happy and purring. Thank you Mystyc!!
Christal was great with Koda! I always stress leaving him behind when I travel, but Christal was able to keep my well informed with detailed updates, photos, and videos of koda throughout the booking! Koda was in a really great mood when I came back!! Would recommend Christal!
She was very thorough and took good care of our cats!! Both of our cats are a handful but she managed to look after them with ease. She made sure to interact a lot with them during the short amount of time she had with them each day, and I appreciate that she asked us a lot of questions when she needed more clarification on something. We would definitely book with her again!
Yu-Hsuan was a great sitter for our two cats! She is very thorough and took many pictures to share with us while we were away. I appreciate her care and attention to detail. Both cats liked her a lot 😊 We got stuck while traveling and she was able to be flexible and drop in an additional time at the last second. Thank you again Yu-Hsuan!

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.

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 .

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