“Robin was amazing with Misty! She was reliable, attentive, and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. Most importantly, Misty was comfortable with her, which means a lot to us. We loved the updates and photos, and it was clear she was well cared for. We will absolutely book Robin again. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Patrick was fantastic. Communicative and dependable. He went the extra mile to conduct a meet and greet prior to our scheduled visits which helped establish trust and protocols. Sent me photos of our kitties every day and seems like he genuinely cares for the animals. Highly recommended!”
“Gianna did a great job with my finicky cat - and she was so helpful finding another Rover friend to cover the few days in the middle of my request that she couldn’t do. I will certainly book her again”
“Had another stress-free weekend knowing my kitties were well taken care of while I was gone. Gwen is great with them, and everything is always in order when I get home.”
“Cozette is amazing and took such great care of my fur baby! All the pictures she sent on her visits every day were great and I could tell how comfortable he was with her (and he tends to be pretty skittish with new people!) I’ll definitely book Cozette again in the future!”
“Maja was amazing! She took such good care of my girl giving her all the attention and pets. Super thorough notes at each check in and the best pics :) 10/10 recommend her!!”
“Our cat has multiple medical conditions requiring a complicated medication and food regimen. She is also very hesitant around strangers, but Carly and Kendric took excellent care of her. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was followed to a T and spent extra time to clean up. They were very communicative and we felt comfortable leaving our fur baby in their hands. Would highly recommend for anyone considering booking them, no matter the pets needs.”
About: I have taken care of animals all my life, from cats to dogs. I have helped take care of my dogs at home by feeding them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, and administering their medicine. I am a graduate student here and hope to help out on weekends. My schedule can be busy, but I am willing to work around my schedule to best suit you and your pet! I would ensure that it is a safe environment, where dangers such as glass shattering or heavy objects are moved to safe places. I also want to ensure they feel comfortable, so taking the time for the animal to get to know me is important.
About: I have had dogs and cats as pets for all of my life. I love to be where animals are and take care of them like my own. Being able to be a comfort person to your own pets is what brings me joy! I am a teacher and will be starting school on August 3rd. As of now my schedule is open, but once August comes my schedule will change to being available after 4:15pm and weekends! Thanks for looking at my profile and I would be glad to meet your little ones :) I have a dog at home that is reactive to other animals, so all home sitting will be at clients house. When there I make sure I treat the space and the animals as if it/they were my own.
About: I have 17 years experience in the veterinary service field. I am skilled at giving both oral and injectable medications on a regular basis. I am trained in fear free handling and believe in positive reinforcement training. My work schedule is generally Tuesday 6:45a-2pm, Wed and Thursday 7am-7pm, Fri 12pm-7pm and every other Saturday 8am to 1pm. If you are looking for a person with a passion for animals and the experience to back it up please reach out. I would absolutely love to be your pets new best friend! Right now I am in between jobs so my availability is very open. The only real work around will be the puppy I currently have. My care of your pets will be solely dependent on you and your family’s requests. Every family has different wants for what they are working on with their dog so I am highly flexible to help with that.
“We are so pleased to add Karissa to our dog sitting team! She truly loves dogs and was wonderful with our shy/reactive dog. She sent photos and notes that helped give us peace of mind while gone. Karissa is dependable and does a great job!”
About: I have had pets since I was a child. I have rescue cats and doggos. My dog and cat are seniors. Every pet deserves a healthy and loving home. I have experience administering medication as one of my rescues was epileptic and needed daily meds and eye drops. I do have professional experience working for a dog daycare!! I love animals and will always advocate for those precious innocent souls that don’t have a voice. I work part time at a doggy daycare, I’m also a part time RBT working with children and young adults. Due to an inconsistent schedule as an RBT, I’m looking forward to being able to help care for animals. There is a space for doggies to walk around. No fence so they will stay on a leash and always be attended to and watched. There is a large park across the street that is perfect for walks and large trees to provide plenty of shade.
About: I grew up around a lot of big dogs so I think i have a better time reading the dog and knowing what it needs and when. I am currently self employed so i can fit in my walks into my schedule how I like. That way if you need to change the time i can be very flexible. You can ensure my attention will be on your pet 100% of the time when you book with me and will get lots of play time.
“Kia was amazing with my spoiled babies and kept me updated my whole time away. I didn’t need to worry a minute while I was away because she kept in great communication with me, and shared great pictures of their time together! I’m so grateful for her!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — I grew up around dogs, cats, and pretty much every pet in the neighborhood, so being around them just feels like home. I started pet sitting for family and friends when I was young, and it kind of grew from there through word of mouth, which honestly means the world to me. I genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means keeping up with a high-energy pup or just sitting quietly with a pet who needs some company. Every animal has their own personality, and getting to know that is honestly my favorite part of the job. My schedule is super flexible — honestly, anytime works for me. I'm self-employed, so I have the freedom to be available whenever your pet needs me, whether that's early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last-minute bookings. No 9-to-5 restrictions here! Your pet will never feel like they're being squeezed into a busy schedule — they'll always have my full attention. When I'm in your home, I treat it like my own — with respect, care, and a lot of love for your pet. I follow whatever routine your pet is used to because consistency matters, especially when you're away. I'm not just popping in to check a box — I'm fully present, keeping things comfortable and familiar so your pet barely notices you're gone. Your home and your fur baby are in good hands.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my commitment to treating every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every animal has unique needs. I am especially comfortable caring for pets that require extra attention or specialized care. My own dog has severe allergies, so I have hands-on experience administering daily oral medications and twice-weekly injections. This has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and closely monitoring a pet's health and well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or requires a little extra care, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while giving you peace of mind that they're in capable hands. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I have a pet of my own. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, exercise, and lots of attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I work to maintain their regular schedules and routines to help them feel comfortable and secure while you're away! I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I focus on maintaining their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away!
About: Ever since I was a little girl I’ve always prefer preferred animals over humans! I’ve had cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and I’ve never met a species of pet I don’t like! I’ve cleaned litterboxes, taken care of sick cats and dogs, walked and bathed dogs, and am constantly doing research to know more about our four legged family members! I currently work for myself and make my own hours, so I’m very flexible during the week! I have four cats of my own and one beloved nephew-puppy I often help care for. I’ve taken care of pets my whole life! I can provide a clean and safe environment for animals such as puppy proofing, litterbox cleaning, dish cleaning, and accident clean ups while also providing other services to keep your four legged friends happy and healthy such as walks, play time, and whatever you feel your pet may need.

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.
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.
