“Natalie is a fantastic sitter! She’s very communicative, flexible, and caring, and treated my cat, Waylon, so well. She made my sometimes shy cat very comfortable and safe and they were cuddle buddies at the end of the second visit. I won’t hesitate in the least to use Natalie’s services again for my cat or dog.”


“Jose was responsive in communicating both before and during the booking. He offered to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, which I really appreciated given the short time frame. He was attentive to the details, and took great care of my cat Olive. I would book him again.”


“This was our first visit away from our kitten, Nico, and I was incredibly nervous. However, Kayli took excellent care of our guy. She was incredibly communicative, gave Nico very well rounded visits (lots of snuggles, all of his favorite toys, etc.), and made sure to ask all of the right questions before our trip began. We will definitely be booking her again, Nico will miss her!”

“Fantastic service, will book again! Really appreciate the excellent care and communication, and the kindness and flexibility when I needed to extend my booking because my travel schedule changed. Felt assured that my cats were safely integrated into a new temporary family and well taken care of while I was away.”

About: I grew up tagging along with my mom to dog shows, so I’ve spent time around all kinds of breeds and personalities. And yes—dog show life is pretty similar to the movie Best in Show! That background has given me a great understanding of canine instincts and temperaments, and I do my best to accommodate each dog’s unique needs so they feel completely comfortable. I started pet sitting for family friends as a teenager, and I’ve continued doing it ever since. I have experience caring for senior pups as well as dogs with medical or special needs. I truly believe every dog is an individual, and I tailor my care to match their personality and routines. I also have experience with aquariums, rodents, reptiles, and birds, so if you have additional small or exotic pets, I’m happy to care for them too. My kids (ages 7 and 11) live with me and are wonderful with dogs. Because of this, any pup we board should be kid-friendly. We also share our home with Mr. Mittens, our laid-back cat, who has lived peacefully with many dogs. If preferred, he can be kept separate during your pet’s stay. I think I was born in a whelping box.... or at least near one. My mother has shown dogs my whole life, and I grew up going to dog shows. I have extensive knowledge of a variety of dog breeds and love working with a full spectrum of dogs. I have personally lived with retrievers, shepherds, Portuguese water dogs, hounds, and pugs, and a variety of quirky mutts. I am currently without a dog and would love to spread some of my misplaced adoration to your pets. My experience administering medication I have administered pills, shots, ear/eye drops, creams, etc. over the years. I also owned a dog who went blind, and I have a soft spot for special-needs dogs. On the first day your pet is with us, I pay close attention to what they are interested in and adjust things as needed.
“Linda was great. She followed the laundry list of instructions I left, and let me know if she had any questions. She made an effort to win over my 3cats…and two accepted her quickly. Unfortunately, my anxious cat didn’t buy it, LOL. Hoping that next time, he will remember hard and come out of hiding.”


“Jada And Nazir are two amazing people. They were very personable and communicated effectively. I booked them for drop in services and they were on time and thorough.”

“Katherine was so sweet to my baby girl Luna! It was our first time ever using a dog sitter & she totally helped me feel comfortable with the whole process. She went above & beyond for my dogs needs. She also responded very quickly & had flexible availability. I would recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“Definitely an excellent sister for my kitties. Vivi took great care of our two kitties they were happy to have her around. She was caring, professional, and give as the peace we needed while we were gone. Thank you again Viví.”

About: I have dog sat for friends when they're out of town. I have watched my mom's cat for her whole life too. I love animals, I love playing with them, I love the excuse to get out for a walk, I love sitting with them, I love talking to them like they can understand what I'm saying. I genuinely enjoy hanging out with animals and care for them deeply. I work from home and have the flexibility to leave for a walk or run an errand whenever I need to. So if that means a 3 pm walk for your pup or a morning and evening feeding time for your pet, I'm here! I have a fenced in back yard, fenced in front balcony, and enclosed spaces throughout my home. I also have an open floor plan on the main level where I would feed your pet and hang out them mostly.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up in a multi-dog household where caring for animals was simply part of everyday life. As a teenager, I regularly cared for my neighbors’ dogs, and over the years I’ve gained experience with puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, and rescue dogs. One of my proudest experiences was rescuing an aggressive stray dog, nursing her back to health, and helping her become a happy, thriving companion. I’ve also raised a puppy from just 8 weeks old, so I’m comfortable with everything from house training and socialization to maintaining routines and reinforcing good behavior. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust through patience, consistency, and plenty of affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, energetic play, or simply relaxing with someone who cares, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and spending time with them never feels like work. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for a member of your family, and I strive to provide dependable, compassionate care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I’m currently building my schedule while working multiple jobs, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. I keep my calendar up to date and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my highest priorities. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or anxious animals, attentive to their behavior, and committed to providing a calm, positive environment. I’ll treat both your home and your pets with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and in good hands.

About: I'm new to professional dog walking and eager to grow my experience. I've regularly walked my grandmother's dog, and I love being outdoors with animals. I'm reliable, patient, and will treat your dog with the same care I'd give my own family's pet. I'm happy to follow your routines and send updates along the way. I'm currently in school pursuing my master's degree. At the moment, I'm available on weekdays from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM for walks, and I'm available from Saturday afternoon to Sunday afternoon for house sitting. I only provide care at my client's home, not my own, so your pet stays in their familiar environment, which I find reduces stress for most animals. When I'm in your home for walks or house sitting, I follow your established routine for feeding, playtime, and walks as closely as possible. I keep a close eye on your pet's behavior and comfort throughout, make sure doors and gates are secure, and send updates or photos so you can check in. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect and attention I'd want if the roles were reversed.

About: I genuinely love animals and enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats. While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for pets for friends and family by feeding them, playing with them, taking dogs on walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m responsible, patient, and dependable, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I will treat your pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I’m currently on summer break, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I’ll treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and loving care while you’re away.
About: Through previous and most recent positions, I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments through pet sitting and dog walking. My responsibilities included feeding, administering basic medications, maintaining exercise schedules, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and providing companionship and enrichment. While I work full-time, I’m available for evening care after 6 PM depending on location, along with flexible availability on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I provide reliable in-home pet care by maintaining pets’ routines, ensuring they’re fed, exercised, comfortable, and given plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.

Reetchel is the best in the game. She is reliable, trustworthy and has saved me when I faced a difficult travel situation and had to come back home later. You can be sure that she will take care of your pets like her own. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Reetchel!

Trina helped us check in on our cat, and responded promptly to my request. She’s professional, courteous, and maintained communication throughout the whole process. She gave our cat some treats, food, checked on her water, and most importantly she gave her some love 😻. My cat enjoyed Trina’s company and was PURRRing on the phone !🧡 Trina was kind enough to offer to check in on my backyard hens when I mentioned that I was little worried about them too. We appreciate all your help and the peace of mind you gave us while we’re away. 🙏

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.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.

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.
