“Myah did a wonderful job with our Stella! When I walked in, Stella was like "oh you're here," which is the perfect and desired response when any of us return. Stella should know she is safe at home and whoever walks through that door will take care of her. And Myah did very well, meeting our girl's needs in our neighborhood. Will definitely rebook!”
“Sid was great! Our dog was certainly flustered the first day we were gone and Sid handled it perfectly. The next 4 days were smooth and our dog seemed to be very happy while she was there! We will definitely re-book in the future if Sid is available.”
About: I am a current kennel attendant at Camp Bow Wow and a volunteer at Kitty Queen Cat Rescue for many years! I have plenty of experience with all ages and breeds of animals! I am completely available outside of my doggie daycare schedule! It does change weekly, but I don’t mind squeezing your pets into my schedule! I am very well educated on the love and care that our furbabies need to thrive! I pride myself in my commitment to building a trust filled relationship with every animal I come across!
“Lauren was absolutely fantastic! My cats warmed up to her super quickly, and she took excellent care of them while I was away. I especially loved her updates and looked forward to them everyday. They were so detailed and fun to read!! I couldn’t have asked for someone better to watch my cats and will definitely be booking her again!”
“It was great to have Cori drop in on my pup. She was very patient with his high energy. She followed all instructions and I didn't have to worry about how my pup was doing”
About: I love furry friends of all kinds. While I grew up with cats, I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life and love pets of all kinds! I work a schedule different than most. Because I work nights and weekends - I have some extra time during the day for your furry friends. So while you are busy at your 9-5 you can trust that your pets are taken care of and ready for you to be home :) I am detail oriented and will worry about your pet as if they are my own. I follow directions to a T and will be sure to take good care of your fur family!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, especially cats and dogs, and I’ve always felt really comfortable with them. Growing up, pets were just part of daily life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. As a teenager, I used to walk a family friend’s dog, which I really enjoyed. It taught me how important patience, consistency, and trust are when working with animals. I also have a senior cat now who even moved across the country with me, so I’m very used to caring for pets that need routine and a gentle, steady approach. When I’m with dogs, I just try to keep things calm, safe, and positive. Whether it’s a walk, feeding, or hanging out for company, I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m flexible throughout the week and can adjust my schedule as needed for walks, check-ins, or drop-ins. I like keeping things consistent for pets, so I do my best to stick to their normal routine and times whenever possible. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping things calm, safe, and familiar for them. I always follow any instructions exactly as given, especially for feeding, walks, and routines. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure everything stays clean and as you left it. With pets, I take my time to build trust so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.
About: I am a married mother with a 14 year old daughter and a 17 year old son. I also have 2 cats and a sweet 8 year old pit mix. Animals and animal rescue are my passion and I have been watching friends' and neighbors' dogs in my home for years. I have a fenced in backyard and my cats and dog are good with dogs. I would be willing to host dogs for over night stays, weekends or week-long vacations. Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs since I was born! My mother is a hopeless dog rescuer just like me and I have always had multiple dogs in my home. Meet my pets I have 2 cats and 1 dog About my yard My back yard is completely fenced in. There is a long flat grassy area and a big hilly area for them to run. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering oral medications. I currently work from home most of the time so I will be around to make sure your dog gets lots of attention and time. I have a fenced in backyard and a friendly, playful dog to keep your dog company. My children are older and really good with dogs.
About: My partner Jack and I love caring for pets! Both of us have been caretakers for pets practically our whole lives, including senior pets and pets with special needs, in addition to small animals like rodents and birds. Whoever you need help with, we’re more than capable. We are so excited to get to know your pets. With us, your pets will get all the attention and exercise they need during your busy day. We are both very attentive to your pets needs and do our best to make them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. We know just how important your companion is to you, so safety is taken into consideration at all times. We keep dogs on leashes at all times when letting them go outside. I work as a barista at a coffee shop and Jack is an employee at Pitt. Together our schedules allow us to have at least 1 person home for most of the day. On rare occasions when neither of us are home, at most we are away for 3-4 hours. We have a large yard with a lead and 2 cats. Our house is moderately sized, with room for playing and relaxing. We are attentive to feeding schedules and potty breaks.
“Matthew went above and beyond to care for our 3 cats. He followed instructions, but also brought in packages for us and cleaned the cats' dirty dishes which wasn't at all expected. I definitely recommend him!”
“This is our first experience with Rover and certainly not our last. The same is true of Wallis, who was an absolute pleasure to meet and trust with our pets. The time away was out of the country, so confidence in the care plan was important. We were pleasantly surprised to get daily texts from Wallis with brief comments and images of our cats. Call it cat-owner-weirdness, but we could see they were in good spirits and comfortable. More cat-owner-weirdness - checking texts from Wallis while standing in line to view the Sistine Chapel! Thank you, Rover and Wallis!”
“LINDSEY was amazing with our pups. She communicated with us consistently, kept us updated, and sent us plenty of photos of our sweet puppies. We will definitely have her take care of them again in the future for sure!”

“Karsyn made us feel so comfortable leaving our dogs for the weekend. Between all the check in’s and the photos, we knew our boys were in great hands! :) She is the absolute sweetest! We will definitely be using Karsyn for any future needs! :)”
“Janaya once again did an excellent job checking in on our cat and making sure he feels loved while we are out of town! She also took great care of our litter of foster kittens. 10/10 would recommend her!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Castle Shannon
We have used Tessa previously and were so happy that she was available to drop in on our cat while we were away. She communicates well and sent us some great feedback about how our guy was doing, as well as pictures. We plan on using her again in the future!
Krista has helped us with our kitty, Mr. Man, several times now. With Krista helping out, there are absolutely no worries! As we do, Mr. Man just loves her! Krista is extremely reliable and takes excellent care of Mr. Man...and Krista always keeps us up to date with daily notes and photos. Many, many thanks to Krista!!!
Lauren was fantastic! Throughout the process she was so thoughtful, kind and communicative. Lauren took the time to meet our girl Fig beforehand, and sent us detailed updates each day we were away. We had so much peace of mind knowing our baby was well taken care of!! We are so appreciative and would happily book Lauren again :)
Matthew did an excellent job taking care of my cat while I was away for a weekend. The cat is diabetic and needs insulin shots every 12 hours. Matthew came promptly at the scheduled times. I was glad while I was away that I didn’t need to worry about my cat. Everything was done according to the instructions I left.
Kennedy was great! She checked in on our kitty while we were away for a weekend, and provided cute photos. Our cat, Leia, seemed to really like her and she doesn’t always warm up to strangers right away. It gave me peace of mine throughout our trip knowing that Leia was being taken care of well. We will definitely be booking Kennedy again.

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 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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
