“It was great to have Alyssa cat sit for us. She was thorough, conscientious about all details, and took time to get to know our pets and included play time in the visits. She sent us pictures and videos and kept in touch. She responded quickly to all messages and made everything easy for us. She built trust from the start. I highly recommend Alyssa and look forward to booking with her again soon.”
About: I've traveled around the world taking care of all kinds of pets and plants on farms and homes. Everyone deserves a good snuggle when their family is away. I work from home Monday to Friday 9:00 to 5 :00 so plenty of time available for walkies and snuggies. I also look after house plants and light moderate pet cleaning duties Stick to the family schedule as best I can. Lots of enriching activities as well as light cleaning and maintenance. ie.litter box, poop scoop, brushing, vacuum etc.
About: My name is Carla and i love animals. I have a pet myself. He's a 8 year old Siamese cat named Tommy! I love my pet with all my heart and wouldn't let anything bad to happen to him. If you trust me with your furry friend, you will get the best of the best service a pet sitter can provide, like they are my own. That includes countless hours of cuddles and play time! I'll ensure your pet is safe and well taken care off while you're away, at the same time trying to minimize the effects of your absence by keeping your pet distracted. I strive to provide quality service that includes: frequent visits, overnight staying, weekend sitting (day and night) and pet walks. If you're looking for a loving pet-sitter that really cares for your pet, don't hesitate to call. Thank you! I have a lot of free time and I would love to do more pet sitting. I feel confortable around animals and nature, so it's a natural thing for me. I will respect customer's boundaries and rules and keep the pet safe. I'll try to minimize the effect the owners absence creates on their pets, with special care when needed, lots of play and cuddles. I can't have pets at my house, because I have 2 cats.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
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.

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.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
