We will be rebooking with Caroline if she is available for future vacations or times when we need to be away for more than just an overnight.”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of animals. I’ve had both cats and dogs since I was a kid, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, and needs. I currently have a five year old Carolina Dog who I adopted from a rescue at 8 weeks old. Raising her from a puppy has given me hands on experience with puppy care, training, patience, and all the little things that come with helping a young dog grow into a happy, well adjusted companion. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away I'm currently working a part time job at home with a very flexible schedule. I have open availability during the week as well as some weekend availability. I’ll mainly care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I’ll follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, and medications, while making sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and lots of attention. I want them to feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.
“Olga was amazing! She took great care of our cat, sent lots of photos and thoughtful updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She also spent time playing with our kitty and even brought her own toy to make playtime more fun. She is kind, reliable, and clearly truly loves animals. We would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐱❤️”
“Rosemary is a fantastic pet sitter. She took incredible care of our cat and he loved every visit. She had excellent communication, gave us detailed updates on our cat, and went above and beyond to understand our and our cats needs, including feeding, supplement, toy, treat, litter and other needs. We would absolutely work with her again.”
“Carlito was so well taken care of while I was gone. Vincent was friendly, professional, and communicative through out the whole reservation. I had several pictures from each visit. I came back to a very happy kitten. Thank you for all you did, Vincent.”
“Roxanna was wonderful with our cat. This was the first time we left our very playful kitty by himself. Roxanna arrived on time 2x daily and gave us a thorough report with pictures about how he was doing. She was specific about his daily behaviors such as eating, crying and playing. We felt like Frankie was in great hands! Thank you!”
About: Meow there! 😸 I'm a Recent Liberal Arts Graduate from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and currently between jobs, so I am pretty flexible. My availability is open, with the exception of two standing commitments: Mondays (6:00–8:00 PM) and Thursdays (3:30–4:30 PM). I have been cat-sitting for around 8 years now. My experience ranges from those with special needs, disorders like PICA, and high anxiety levels. For fur babies with high anxiety, I will work to ensure their health and safety by Calmly Locating them in their favorite hiding spot, giving them space, and making sure they are eating their meals/ using the litter box.
“Oksana did a great job taking care of my sweet pup! She got him out for a nice active walk (sometimes a challenge) and clearly gave him lots of attention and love at home as he was happy and relaxed when I got in. Will definitely rebook.”
About: I've always had a love for animals from a young age. I've cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and birds of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As an active walker and nature enthusiast, I'd love the extra company! My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable and loved while in my care. I also love capturing special moments along the way and sending home our furry friends back to their parents with digital souvenirs! I currently work remote, which gives me flexibility to cater towards your pet's needs and routine. I'm generally available throughout the week, including weekends, as long as services are scheduled in advance. I'm happy to work with you and find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and happy while you're away! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I make sure to follow care instructions closely to maintain familiar routines, and keeping owners updated with messages or photos throughout their stay.

Hannah did an excellent job caring for my two cats! She took care of both of their litter boxes, checked on their feeder and gave them their wet food, and played with them too! Hannah is always super responsive and reliable and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone to look after their babies. Thanks Hannah!
Olga has taken care of my 2 elderly cats a few times now for both short and long trips. She's been extremely reliable and thoughtful in her care of them. I feel very confident about leaving them and my home in her care while away. On one trip my return flight was cancelled and I couldn't get back when planned. Olga was very accommodating and helped with this unexpected change. She's given me a lot of peace, so I can enjoy my travel. I highly recommend her!
Ben was great! He was on time for each visit, did what was asked for our pets and plants, asked questions, reported issues, and communicated about the pets throughout the week. He was tidy and even walked the dog for miles in the summer heat! I will definitely hire him again.
Kaitlin was amazing with my cats while we traveled for the holidays. You can tell that she loves animals and made sure they were safe and well cared for. I will be using her again for whenever we travel ( we travel a lot). Our chonky boy smokie totally fell in love with her ( I am a little jealous lol). I came home to happy pets who made a new friend. I would totally recommend her.

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.

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 .

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 .
