“Amanda was absolutely fantastic!! My cats both have health conditions and need medicine every 12 hours. Amanda always did her check ins really promptly and was super communicative throughout, really going the extra mile several times. I'm always a little nervous leaving my very old cats and she put my mind totally at ease. I would definitely have her back again and again!”

“Yingzi is a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of our cat Yokii while we were out of town on a short vacation, and she followed his daily routine and our instructions carefully. After every visit, she sent us a brief update with photos so we always knew how things were at home. It gave both my family and Yokii so much peace of mind. Thank you, Yingzi!”
“Eleanor was so thoughtful while watching my cat. She started with a meet & greet to make sure things would go smoothly and then gave great updates so I knew how every visit went and the care could be adjusted as needed. I came home to a happy and healthy pet. Thank you!”
“We are SO lucky to have found Kate on Rover! This was our first time working with her, and we couldn’t be happier!! Our cat absolutely LOVED her company and looked so happy and comfortable with Kate. We received lots of thoughtful updates, pictures, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cat was well loved and in great hands. Kate is incredibly thoughtful, kind, and attentive. We came home to a happy cat and a super clean home! We really appreciate you, Kate, and cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for a wonderful cat sitter!”

About: I’m new on Rover but I’ve long loved and cared for pets of all shapes and sizes! I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable following your specific routines and instructions. I’m delighted to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available throughout the week/weekend for walks and drop-in visits, including during normal working hours. I can often accommodate last-minute requests and am happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. I understand that every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and routine, and I’ll tailor my care accordingly. I’m careful to plan and steer walks to keep your best friend safe and happy—whether that means a fun, social walk for a dog who loves meeting others, or giving plenty of space to people and dogs for a pup who’s more cautious. I’ll follow your instructions closely, be careful with leashes and doors, and keep you updated during each visit.

“Jordan was very helpful to come out on such short notice. I could tell by the photos she provided that my cats enjoyed their time with her! Will rehire.”

Mia was absolutely amazing with my kitty. She was patient and understanding when he was being shy, and took great care with his food and other needs while I was away. She sent updates and photos, kept the apartment clean, and has been just a pleasure to work with. I will definitely book her again.
This is our third time booking with Sarah and we couldn’t be happier with her services! She takes excellent care of our two cats, even our skittish boy is in love with her. We look forward to her photos and stories of our kitties after each visit. Highly recommend Sarah to care for your pets!

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.

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 .
