“Jacqueline was so fantastic watching our dog over a holiday weekend! She was so detailed summarizing each visit that it helped us relax and enjoy our time away without having to worry about our pup!! 10/10 recommend her for anything you may need for your pets, she’s amazing!!”
“Shelby was an AMAZING sitter, even my super shy and skiddish cat opened up to her!! Great communication and picture taking while we were out of town so we were thankfully able to see all the updates with our kitties stress free :) I would definitely book with her again❤️”
“Abriana was excellent! Attentive, caring, and great communication. I would not hesitate to book again or recommend! She took great pictures and time with our cats!”
“Rebecca did such a good job taking care of my cat Liza! It was a bit of a last minute booking, but she had no issues doing a quick meet & greet. She was thorough, attentive, and sent lots of pictures!”
About: Have had pets my entire life and have very much enjoyed my time hosting dogs of all ages and sizes. A lot of love and walks! I work remotely! So I’ll be here to care for and attend to their needs whenever they have them. I aim to take dogs for walks 2-3x per day and can maintain feeding and medicinal schedules. As a note, your dog will be the only dog here! I block out my calendar once I’ve received bookings so you can feel safe knowing that your dog will receive 1-on-1 attention. So much love. I like to learn about your pet and any information you’re able to provide is welcomed. Bring their food, schedule, and favorite toy. They will be the only dog at my home which will be nice for them to receive 1-on-1 care.
“Alexis did a wonderful job pet sitting our cats. She followed instructions well and sent us lots of photos and videos. Our house was just as we left it when we came back! We will definitely be using her services again!!”
“Laura took excellent care of our cats via drop in visits during our week long vacation. She was very easy to communicate with and was very reliable. She also went the extra mile by sending me messages and photos to let me know how the visits went. I will definitely use her again and would recommend her. I never worried once while we were gone.”
“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! :)”
“Kennedy was very flexible and picked up my booking on very short notice! She was extremely kind, respectful, and responsive. She was attentive to all my cats needs, asked questions on how to care for him best, and listened to all my requests. I had extra tasks I didn’t expect to get accomplished(because I do give my cat princess treatment) but she accomplished them all!!! 100000/10! Would recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds, including cats, dogs, turtles, goats, chickens, and ducks. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. I’m definitely a cat person at heart, but I absolutely love dogs too! My boyfriend is allergic, so having a dog of our own isn’t really an option. Pet sitting gives me the perfect excuse to get my dog fix and give them all the attention, walks, playtime, and love I’d give one of my own. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker at the Humane Society, where I gained experience walking and handling dogs with a variety of sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Recently, I rescued two separate litters of kittens and helped care for them, including bottle-feeding and providing the extra attention young kittens need. I also have more than 10 years of experience house-sitting and caring for pets for numerous families. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, and I’d love the opportunity to give your pets that same care and affection! I work from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays. Depending on the distance from my work, I may be able to stop in during my lunch break, and I’m available after work and throughout the evening. My weekends are completely open, giving me plenty of flexibility to spend time with your pets and work around their normal routine. My goal is to make your absence feel like as little has changed as possible for your pet. I’ll follow their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and care routines while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show my own.
“There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.”
“Zachary was fantastic! He completed drop in stops for our cat while we were out of town. He sent great updates and pictures during his drop ins. Next time we need a sitter for our cat, we will book with Zachary again.”
“We were away for just over three weeks. Kate came to take care of my 2 cats. She provided photos and full details of cat care daily. One cat has to take a pill and she reassured me that all was well at home. She also watered my indoor plants and took the used kitty litter to the curb on trash night. (So there was not an unliftable bag of litter to haul out upon return.). All interactions in person and text were great. My cats, including the shy one who gets the pill, really seemed to like her and interacted well with her.”
“Good communication, kind, considerate. She went above and beyond to make sure my "non-traditional" pets also had water in addition to my cat. She was respectful of my house, and I will be requesting her services again in the future!”
About: I have watched friends dogs in the past by taking them for walks during the day or letting them out when needed. I love all animals and will always give my best and love your pet like my own. I am available mornings Monday - Thursday before 10a and Fridays after 10a. Weekends depend but if I know ahead I can plan around anything scheduled. I am respectful and will do what you ask of me and feel is best for your cats. I also promise to love your cats as my own when I am taking care of them. I am more than willing to take pictures and send consistent updates!
“Sydney did a great job taking care of our cat while we were gone. She followed all the instructions we left and kept her company at night as well. She sent so many updates and pictures and was so accommodating!”
“Sydney was able to help us out again in a last minute pinch - she takes great care of our boys, is super easy to coordinate with, and is very communicative! We would highly recommend Sydney!!”

Lara did an excellent job caring for my diabetic cat while I was away for three days. She came twice a day to administer insulin injections right on time, every 12 hours. The cat seemed very happy and well treated when I got back. The cat likes to be brushed, and Lara took the time to keep him well brushed.
Krista has helped out with our Mr. Man quite a few times now. Mr. Man just loves Krista and he always receives the best of care from her! We can leave home for a little while and feel assured that our beloved "kitten" is in good hands while we are away. A million thanks to Krista for all of her help!!!
This was our second time having Elise watch our 2 cats while we were out of town. Knowing they are getting excellent care while we’re away makes it so much easier. Elise is great at communicating and sending updates, and you can sense her genuine love for what she does. Our cats warm up to her quickly, and really that’s the true test! 100% would recommend her to anyone 🙂
Shelby was an AMAZING sitter, even my super shy and skiddish cat opened up to her!! Great communication and picture taking while we were out of town so we were thankfully able to see all the updates with our kitties stress free :) I would definitely book with her again❤️
Rachel was an awesome, super communicative pet sitter that we'd be more than happy to book again! She made sure that we knew how our cat, Chili, was doing every day via multiple updates and answered any spur of the moment questions immediately. She also ensured she was prepared in advance by getting in touch well before our booked dates. Thank you for being an excellent sitter!

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. 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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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. 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.
