“Rachael was professional and kept our kitties happy. We felt very comfortable with her dropping in to care for our kitties, and will definitely use her services again!”
“This was Dasha’s second time she watched our cat. She was well cared for with detailed updates and several photos every day. Dasha also helped by pulling in some packages that got delivered while we were gone. Very happy with how she has been able to be a companion for our kitty when we are out of town.”
“Our sweet kitties were healthy and happy when we returned home from vacation. Trisha sent daily updates and photos toprovide comfort to this nervous fur mama. I would definitely book her again”
About: I have always had dogs and currently have bunnies too. I volunteer one morning a week at the animal shelter when I'm physically able. I have trained six of my own. Also enjoy creating enrichment and providing interaction for those who benefit from it. Happy to give your pets company for a short while. I am available to do drop-ins for up to an hour or two in the mornings or early afternoons including a potty break. Depending on the dog and the day, longer walks may be available. Dependent on demeanor, I can provide company outside or inside with as much attention requested, a short walk, or play session. Automatically thresholds will be respected for exposure to triggers. On-leash will include practicing loose-leash walking, lots of sniffing, and some impulse control. Play will include the toys and/or treats provided at the pups home.
“Sarah was phenomenal! She did an amazing job with her communication, check ins, and detailed updates! It was comforting to know my babies were taken care of! I would 1000% book with her again! Thank you, Sarah!”
“Lindsay took great care of our 2 17-year old cats including one that needed medication. She asked questions up front about their care and sent us pictures while we were away. We felt very confident and comfortable with her attention and care for our cats and we will definitely use her again.”
“We recently used Anika for a house/cat sitter while we were away for a few days. She was kind, communicative and attentive to our requests and did a great job of caring for our cat. When we returned home, the house was tidy and our cat was happy. We will definitely ask Anika to come stay again.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent years caring for pets for friends, family, and people in my community. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities, and I make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I have experience with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs so they stay safe and happy. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I'm currently working part-time flexibly and doing hybrid college, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for house sitting whenever as long as I’m able to leave the house for classes and short shifts! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so their pet feels comfortable and secure. I handle feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box cleaning, and any other care instructions the owner provides. I respect the client’s home and keep everything clean and organized while I’m there. I also give pets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise so they stay happy while their owner is away. Communication is very important to me, so I always send updates and photos so pet parents know their pet is safe and doing well.
About: I've been a pet owner and lover my whole life. I've taken care of plenty of breeds and species and I've invested a lot of my time growing my knowledge on pet care. Any animal you might have, I can handle it! I currently am looking for a job so my availability is pretty open. I do have my own animals but live with others who can help keep an eye on them as well. My own dog is pretty strong and used to be unruly before I took her in and took the time to train her better. We've been working really hard the past several years and she's gotten to be so well trained. I have a lot of love, patience, and practice handling tough dogs. Cats have always been a huge part of my life since I was very little and it's like second nature to take care of them in any way.
“Went on a trip out of town last minute and Emma did an EXCELLENT job watching our kitty! Emma was very communicative and professional throughout the entire process and at all times I felt like our cat was in great hands. Would highly recommend her for future visits!! :)”
“Ethan was wonderful and very attentive to my cat’s needs. His communication was excellent from the start, and I felt completely at ease leaving my cat in his care. Would definitely book his services again!”
About: I’ve always dabbled in pet sitting for the fun of traveling and meeting new breeds. Now that I’m semi - retired, I've discovered a new joy in providing care without the pressure of outside responsibilities. Having nowhere else to be means I can spend hours with your pets, letting them set the pace on our walks, and offering endless cuddles, allowing me to form trusted connections with every animal I watch. It is not that pet care fits into my life as much as pet care IS my life. It is breakfast, walk or read (depending on the species), groom, pet, games, naps, then dinner and repeat until bedtime. In follow the outline provided by the pet parent to work through the pet’s familiar daily routine. For dogs, I emphasize exercise and with cats, I emphasize stillness. For both, we find a compromise 😂
About: Hello! My name is Cheyenne and I absolutely adore animals! I have 4 cats (of varying ages,) an Australian Shepherd and we foster kittens. I’ve been petsitting since 2008. Please feel free to message me with any questions or concerns! I look forward to meeting you and your furbaby! I work from home so I have lots of time for your furbaby! We free feed our cats, and they get wet food 1x a day. For our dog, we feed him 2x a day with snacks in between. We also follow whatever schedule your babies are on. Animals aren’t allowed out alone, and we always have eyes on them. For in client homes, I provide pictures with status updates. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life! Since I share my home with animals, caring for animals is already built into my routine. I have a somewhat flexible schedule that allows me to adjust my day around the needs of your pets—whether that’s daily drop-ins, longer visits, or overnight care. Pets are never left outside unattended, and I always make sure doors, gates, and litter areas are secure. I send photos and notes so you can see how your furbaby is doing while you’re away. Whether it’s play sessions, walks, or cuddle time, I make sure they get plenty of attention and love.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards, fish, and even snails! I’ve been house and pet sitting on and off throughout my adult life, and caring for animals is something I genuinely love. I’m excited to help your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s getting outside for fresh air and walks (when appropriate), enjoying some good exercise, or simply providing plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, I love making sure animals get the care and companionship they need. 🐾 Currently recovering from burnout from medical school. Very flexible. Love reading, nature, and naturopathic medicine. I have a hybrid car. I am Happy to drive for house sitting for longer stays. I ask for a printed list of needs and numbers. I take good direction. Plus I am a Dr. (not a vet) but I know it helps.
About: What Sets Me Apart I provide more than just pet sitting—I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I also trained my own dog, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, positive reinforcement, and clear communication. I treat every pet in my care like my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am currently in school. And would love to take care of your pets in the afternoons. I can check in on them and give them afternoon walks, treats and pee breaks, whatever you and your pet may need! How I Care for Pets in Your Home I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, potty breaks, and any special needs. I give pets plenty of attention and affection while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I also keep their space clean and tidy and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Chantelle was so kind and attentive. She was attentive to my cat, Chiari, provided updates, and played with her. I’m so grateful for her help and care. Definitely would recommend booking with her!”
About: Grew up with dogs, healed with dogs, and now I take care of dogs! I'm the friend and family member you call when you need someone to look after and play with your pup. Will work with finicky diet routines, would-be escape artists, and high energy dogs, and enjoy doing so! Right now, I'm working as a part-time extracurricular educator while I'm re-orienting my research career. I have flexible schedule, and have plenty of time to be booked out! No Escapes: I take my time getting in and out- body blocking to ensure sneaky or fast pets cannot slip past me. All-Clear Checks: During drop-ins and house sitting, I scan floors for loose items, dropped food, or chewing hazards before letting pets roam free. Communication and Pet Papparazzo: You will receive photo or video updates during every single walk and drop-in visit so you know your pet is happy. I was a Boy Scout- Leave no Trace: I carefully follow all instructions for locking doors, setting alarms, retrieving mail, and keeping your home secure while you are away. I treat your home with total respect by cleaning up any messes immediately, and treating all furniture and belongings with respect.

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 .
