“Dennis was very responsive and communicated well before the visit. He was flexible and accommodated last minute requests. I will use Dennis again if I’m ever in need!”
“Morgan is patient and encouraging on walks with my reactive dog. She makes him feel safe, and allows us to feel relaxed knowing he is in great hands. Thank you Morgan!”
“Christina was great! Reliable, super communicative, and our two cats very quickly warmed up to her. We have already booked her for our next trip and would highly recommend Christina.”
“Sheila is so reliable, great with Cody and a wonderful communicator. I always feel so happy and relived when I get her notes after she visits. I look forward to booking her again.”
“Outstanding service. The communication was excellent throughout the entire booking, and I always felt informed and at ease. My puppy is usually very skittish and anxious with new people, they approached her with patience, confidence, and a gentle demeanor that made all the difference. I’m extremely grateful and would absolutely book again.”
“We feel so lucky to have found Morgan as our cat sitter! She is truly amazing — caring, reliable, and incredibly loving with our two boys. Every time we go away, we have full peace of mind knowing they’re in the best hands. Morgan goes above and beyond, always sending us the sweetest updates and photos, which we really appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats our cats like her own. We couldn’t ask for better care. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur babies!”
“Chloe was very good with our pets and very accommodating with the booking. She made me feel assured that my pets would be well cared for and they were. Even my grumpy senior cat was sitting in her lap. Highly recommend”
“I had an amazing experience with Dylan. He took exceptional care of my cat for almost three weeks, and I could immediately tell how well Balam had been looked after. Balam was calm, happy, and completely stress‑free when I returned — which says everything about the quality of care he received. My home was spotless, and Dylan even watered my plants without me asking, which was such a thoughtful surprise. He was respectful, attentive, and clearly very responsible. I truly appreciate the care and consideration he put into everything. I will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommended”
“Nick did a great job taking care of my cat and dog for a week. Even with them not being used to being with a stranger for an extended period of time, they warmed up to him quickly and really enjoyed his company.”
“Alena was so sweet and friendly that I instantly felt comfortable having her in my home and taking care of my cat, Tuesday. Alena was an excellent communicator, sent lots of nice photos and was really easygoing and flexible with the schedule. Plus, my cat was super chill when I arrived home, and I felt she was well taken care of by Alena. Would absolutely book again!”
“Melina did a great job and I will request her for all my vacation needs! She was sensitive to the needs of a fearful cat and respected her space. She did everything as requested sending regular updates and pictures of the cats. Job well done!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond and was so wonderful with our cat, he absolutely loved her. She was a pleasure to work with and made us feel completely comfortable and at ease while we were on vacation. I would highly recommend her!”
About: Let me start off by saying I am so excited to meet your four (or three!) legged best friend. Animals make my heart happy and I will provide all the love and care you would if you weren't away. I have a Bachelors of Science in Large Animal Science. I have volunteered at animal shelters to walk all the rescues. I worked at a 24 hour emergency Vet hospital renowned on the East Coast , I owned two rescues well into their late teens. I love all shapes and sizes and personalities. If you dog wants to run, we will be morning joggers. If your dog wants to play, I'm a tug of war champion. I do work full time so if your dog needs a lot of attention throughout the day I would not be a good fit M-Th. I believe in transparency and will always let you know prior to any booking should I foresee it not being the best match for your pets needs. I’m currently a full time Rover sitter- so your pet is my number 1 priority. We follow their schedule - whether it’s set feeding and walking times - or free time play and nap as you please. I aim to make this temporary change in caretaker as seamless as possible. Just a slight change in scenery and a lot more 1:1 time. I treat your pet like my own (unless you don’t allow them on the furniture, because I need to snuggle those babies!) I prefer to be with your pet as much as possible, and if I need to leave the house I prefer to bring them with me.
About: Being raised around pets my whole life and having many of my own pets in my adult life, I feel confident that I can give your pets all the same love and attention that I would give to my pets! My pets have always been my family and I will treat your pets the same. I am a huge lover of the outdoors and am happiest when I'm out walking, especially when I have dogs by my side, no matter what the weather is like! I have volunteered with animals in the past and feel comfortable with pets any size or energy level. I will do my absolute best to ensure your pets needs are met, no matter how big or small. I will also make sure to respect the owner's rules and make sure they are maintained. Photo updates so you can be sure your pets are happy and enjoying their time with me!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hamilton
Susan has cat-sat my cat Rosie on multiple occasions. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure Rosie is well cared for and her needs met. Rosie, who is shy around strangers, has become friendly with Susan due to Susan's considerate and careful approach to gaining Rosie's trust. Susan also keeps me well informed of what is happening with Rosie while I'm away and sends a lot of pictures, which I really appreciate. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Rosie, or other cats, in Susan's care!
I cannot recommend Sheila enough! She was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with right from the start, which instantly put my mind at ease. I didn't have to worry about a thing while we were away, and looked forward to her detailed updates and cute pictures every day. Knowing our cats were in such caring, reliable hands made all the difference. We will absolutely book with her again!
This was our second time having Britney come for drop-in visits with our cat, Nala, while we were away. She does a great job, is easy to coordinate with, and is very friendly, reliable and professional. We will absolutely book with Britney again the next time we need a sitter :)
Des and Michelle were wonderful! They were punctual and took the time not only to feed the cats and clean the litter box, but also to play with them and earn their trust. They always sent detailed updates and photos, so I could enjoy my camping trip with peace of mind knowing my cats were in safe hands. I would happily recommend them to anyone in the neighbourhood.
This was our 4th time working with Sue to take care of our two kitties, and it won't be the last! She is the best petsitter we have ever had. She is extremely caring, amazing with her communications and updates, and even went out of her way to make sure the cats were okay in hot weather. She is incredible!!!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

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.
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.
