“Heather was absolutely amazing with our three cats! I’m very protective of my cats and I tend to worry a lot when I’m away from them, especially because each of them has a different personality and their own little routine. I left Heather quite a lot of details and instructions, and she was incredibly patient, understanding, and respectful of everything. She kept me updated throughout our trip with messages, pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. What made me happiest was watching our cats gradually become more and more comfortable with her. Even our shy ones started coming around, spending time with her, and eventually even sleeping in her room. It was very clear that she took the time to earn their trust rather than forcing interaction with them. ❤️ Heather went above and beyond in so many ways. She treated our cats and our home with so much care, and I truly felt that they were in safe and loving hands while we were away. By the end of the stay, I honestly think they were going to miss her too! 🥰 I would absolutely ask Heather to pet sit for us again without hesitation. Knowing that I now have someone I can trust this much with my babies will make traveling so much easier in the future. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Heather! ❤️🐾”
“Thank you Bronya once again for taking such good care of Pinot. I never worry with you watching him. I know he is well fed and pampered. I would recommend Bronya to watch your pets anytime. She is reliable dependable and your pets will love her ! Thank you again for taking such good care of Pinot”
“Brianna was amazing! We received plenty of pictures daily from her and her communication was great. Just all in all super easy to coordinate with and would definitely book again.”
About: Hi! I’m Christina, and I am a proud owner of a Sheltie named Gus 🐕 and an orange tabby named Monster 🐈 Are you looking for a reliable, trustworthy, friendly dog sitter? I’m here for you! I have a flexible schedule and I also have a vehicle to easily commute to different places. I am an experienced dog walker and pet sitter of various sizes and breeds. My pets are both seniors so I have extensive experience with senior pets and administering medications. Please contact me for a free consultation to see if I’d be a good fit for you and your family ❤️ Currently, my schedule is quite flexible. I am currently working part-time as a counsellor, working as a dog walker several days a week and doing a Master’s program online asynchronously. I am able to adapt my schedule for your needs with sufficient notice :) At this time, I am unable to house sit other pets at my house. However, I am able to go to your home and look after your pets! Some things I do to ensure safety include following client instructions carefully, avoiding other dogs while walking, not using my phone or music while walking a dog to ensure my focus is on the dog and our surroundings, and ensuring dogs are kept on leash or in a fenced backyard to prevent them from running loose.
About: Hello my name is Claire and I love all animals. I have many years of experience of caring for animals. I have taken care of many dogs over the years. I have walked, fed, groomed and played with big and small dogs. I have also taken care of hamsters, fish, rats, frogs and other small pets. I volunteer with the cats at the Ottawa Humane Society. I provide enrichment to cats who are all unique. I am looking forward to meeting your furry friend. I am not currently working but I volunteer Saturday mornings at the Ottawa Humane Society. Should this change, I will update my profile as needed I will prioritize caring for your pet in their home as they would be most comfortable in a familiar environment. I will ensure that your cat is fed, has a clean litter box and gets plenty of enrichment.
About: I am a cat lover who enjoy being around cats. I have a very lovely, peaceful, kind, affectionate cat (his name is Louie) super cute cat. So I am familiar on how to take care of cats. In addition to that, my dad used to bring kittens to home when i was child. I clean the litter and comb my cat fur everyday. I change water bowl everyday. And I feed him twice a day to keep him fit. I live in an apartment that is very safe for cat. I do not open the balcony and there is screens in all windows. It is completely safe place.
About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them family. Our first dog, Sasha, was adopted four months before I was born and had significant behavioural needs. She was my best friend for thirteen wonderful years, and caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to meet each dog where they are. Since then, my family has had two more dogs, and I’ve gained experience caring for seniors, managing specialized diets, preparing food, and handling unexpected veterinary concerns. Our current dog, Zyler, has canine megaesophagus and requires specialized food preparation and feeding techniques. He’s a lot of work, but he’s also the absolute love of my life! I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and taking the time to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I am a full time student. I have 3-5 hours of non-negotiable commitments during the week, but I am a homebody and I can be around constantly outside of synchronous in-person classes. I am free Tuesdays. Saturday’s and Sunday’s without restrictions I care for pets by taking my cues from your animal. Having been a foster volunteer, I am aware of signals and cues and how to respect an animal’s boundaries while caring for their needs. I am the cleanest, most respectful house guest and will leave the place immaculate. I will respect homeowners predefined boundaries while providing as much play and cuddles possible.
“Christine was our first catsitter, from Rover, with Mario and Luigi. I felt really good leaving for 5 days, knowing that we had an established schedule and a list of extra info for Christine. She did amazing! I had news/pics daily. I am so pleased with Christine’s care. I especially appreciated the daily entries in a journal left for me 🤩. It was fun to read! Thank you so so much Christine 😻😻”
About: I have over 2 years of pet sitting experience via another app and I have Veterinary knowledge where it allows me to cater to your babies if ever the need medication or other specialty needs. I am a person who will always prioritize the well-being of your animal and during my service they will have my undivided attention well you are away. I also believe in good Communications and to bring my clients a peace of mind by providing them daily updates and I am flexible when it comes to clients requests. I have rescued a lot of animals in the past such as birds, cats, rabbits ect... I always like to set up a meet and greet with my clients prior to any booking acceptance to ensure that my client's questions are answered and that the animals except me as their sitter. in a previous app I had five star reviews across the board and my clients are now following me on this app. my household consists of two dogs three cats and five budgies and I keep bugging my husband to have baby goats but he keeps saying no for some strange reason LOL in a nutshell I would do anything for the animals to be happy. I am a person who is 100% at home. any type of services you book with me is 100% focusing on your pet. when you reserve a house sitting I will be with your pets all day and all night as I will sleep over at your house for the time of the booking. I might get out to get some groceries or get fresh air but will treat your pets the way I treat mine. My birds have their own room with a radio and plenty of sunshine where they can play and have their fresh veggies. My cats and dogs are never cratted and free to roam everywhere in the house except for the bird room. At night they basically all sleep with us in our bed.
About: With 5 years of Veterinary Assistant experience, I provide calm, compassionate care tailored to each pet. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health conditions, and giving extra time and patience to senior pets. I believe pets are happiest in their own familiar environment, so I care for them in their home where they feel safe and comfortable. I value routine and clear communication, and before each booking, I like to go over your pet’s routine, personality, and any important dos and don’ts. Safety is always my priority. For dogs, I avoid dog parks and interactions with unfamiliar dogs until I know their communication and comfort level. My goal is simple: to keep your pet happy, safe, comfortable, and cared for like family while you’re away. ❤️ I work strictly overnight shifts at an animal hospital, giving me flexible daytime availability to care for your pets with plenty of time and attention. I don’t care for pets in my own home because I strongly believe in the comfort and security of their familiar surroundings. When pet parents are away, I believe the least stressful option is for a sitter to come to them—allowing pets to stay in their own space, routine, and comfort zone.

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.
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.

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.

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.

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.
