“This was Katrina’s first time watching our cats and she did a wonderful job! She sent us lots of pictures, kept me updated on things happening with the boys and our house, and made sure everything was taken care of. We came back to healthy, happy boys and they seemed to adore her!”
“I'm so glad I knew Nico was taking great care of my cat, Aby, while I was away! Nico really knows cats and gave Aby lots of playtime and brushies. I could tell Aby liked him too because she was rolling over to show her belly!”
About: I am experience with caring for several types of dogs and cats in size and breed. I have cared for multiple dogs at the same time and meeting their needs at any age. My greatest strength is my patience and my willingness to communicate with your pets to ensure a working relationship that is based on love and care. I work remotely at home, and I am happy to take breaks to care for pets in between my work. I am flexible with early morning walks to late evening strolls. I love walking through parks and working at pet friendly cafes. I am transparent with my work. Working at clients home is something I understand that must be rooted in trust and care. I respect people's property and schedule to the best of my ability. I am actively aware of the need for communication, and I place that trait above all.
“Paige did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone. She was very attentive and asked a lot of questions to make sure Meeko was getting the best care. Everything was very clean when I got home and I could tell that Meeko was well taken care of. I would definitely have Paige care for him again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Ashley made it such an easy and comforting experience! She was very easy to communicate with and provided a great update. Will definitely keep Ashley in mind for future visits!”
About: I have a wide range of pet care experience. I grew up with pets including dogs, cats, rats, a guinea pig and a bunny. I spent about 6 months before starting college fostering cats and kittens and gave experience fostering dogs including young puppies. I had a few regular dog walking clients before starting college, as well as a few regular pet sitting gigs. I have watched dogs as small as 10 lb yorkies to great danes. I also have experiencing watching chickens, ducks, frogs, lizards, and birds. I have delt with skittish cats, big jumping dogs, biters, and bolters. I have experience with administering different medications as well. I am a quick learner and love to spend time with any pet I visit! I am a full time college student at BU, but am looking for work a few times a week if possible. I am generally flexible outside of my set class schedule. I would love to walk your dog 1-3 times a week, or watch your pets over the weekend! I can do just about anything you need for your pet, whether that means a long walks, feeding and watering, medicine administration, or just spending some quality time with them when your out working.
About: I am currently a graduate student with a flexible schedule looking to spend some free time racking up that dopawmine! I have grown up with dogs and cats for my whole life and although I do not have my own furry friend right now, I adore pets and would love to share that with your pet! I have experience house sitting for a family with 3 medium sized dogs and am comfortable with dogs of any size. I also love to go on walks and stretch my legs, what would be a better addition than a doggo companion! Although I love dogs, also have experience with cats and love all from snuggle to sass! My camera roll is essentially filled with dogs and I would love to send updates throughout my walk/stay with your pet! I would be overjoyed for you to let me share some of my love with your furry friend! Please reach out, can’t wait to hear from you and yours 🐾. I am a graduate student at Northeastern with a flexible schedule. Because I have no pets of my own (yet!) I have a very open schedule! I am very comfortable walking on leash with dogs and am happy to do feedings and potty breaks! I appreciate clear instructions tailored to your pet to make them as comfortable as possible in their routine.

I am available most weekends for in-home sitting and walks. Your pet’s safety and comfort is always my top priority. I follow your instructions, no matter how specific, and keep to their normal routines. If your pet is in training, I’ll make sure to reinforce the same commands, boundaries, and behaviors you’re working on at home. I treat your home with the same respect as I would my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and cared for while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Brookline Village
Lindsey took wonderful care of my soul kitty while I was away for 4 days. She sent pictures showing the progression of my babe warming up to her & even letting her hold & snuggle! My kitty does not warm up to everyone so it was very nice to know how safe & comforted she was the whole time I was away! Thank you again!
Maya was an awesome cat sitter! She did everything we were looking for and took such great care of our cat. She was very caring, attentive, and great with communication, which made us feel comfortable while we were away. We really appreciated her help and would definitely book her again!
Can not recommend Yeji enough! My cat Peanut is incredibly shy and Yeji did an amazing job making her feel comfortable. You can tell she was well taken care of from the cute pictures in her Rover card! Yeji is thorough and trustworthy, super communicative, made an extra effort to keep my apartment tidy, and made Peanut feel loved even while I was away for a full week in another country!
Kailey was absolutely wonderful! They were so kind, left thoughtful and detailed notes, and took great pictures of my cat. As my cat gets older and more particular in his ways, I’ve become a little more nervous about leaving him with new sitters. But every card from Kailey reassured me that he was in great hands and being so well cared for. I really appreciated the care and attention they gave him, and the peace of mind they provided me. I would absolutely book with Kailey again and cannot recommend them enough!
Christina was absolutely wonderful with our cat! She was super responsive and sweet, and our cat loved her too! Our cat is usually quite anxious when we are away, but Christina did a fantastic job making her feel safe and taken care of. I would definitely book Christina again in the future and highly recommend her!
Without a doubt, Liza will always be our go-to sitter! She is so attentive to our kitty, detailed with the updates she provides on Rover, so good at capturing hilarious photos of our kitty, and clearly is so passionate about what she does. We appreciate her help every time we book her.
Beth was one of the most responsible and reliable cat sitters we have had. Our cats need meds including an insulin injection which she handled perfectly. She was even accommodating of unexpected deliveries coming to our house and knew when to reach out w questions. She is immediately responsive to communications and so loving with our cats. We are so lucky to have found an amazing sitter for our cats when we are away!
Catherine was super caring and considerate in her visits with Stormy, giving her plenty of pets, play, and even cleaning up her throw up (💀). Catherine was always communicative letting me know when she would visit and if there would be any delays with her timing etc!
Alexa is wonderful! She kept us well informed at each feeding and took lots of photos. The cats took to her right away. When we returned home, everything was as it should be. She also went above and beyond when a package arrived while we were away, but was damaged. We highly recommend Alexa and hope that she is available next time we need a cat sitter.
Jordan is fabulous! I needed to book at the last minute and she was accommodating to my needs. My kitty, Percy, took to her immediately. I felt comfortable having Jordan take care of my kitty while I was away. I recommend Jordan if you are looking for a true “cat whisperer”. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!

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.

All bookings are backed by the , 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 .
