Alyssa is absolutely the best cat sitter! I so appreciate how sweet she is to our cat, and how clean she leaves all the cat areas so that there is nothing for me to take care of when I get home. Our cat, like many cats, pretends to be hard to get, but Alyssa always wins her over! We are thrilled to have Alyssa booked again for our next trip.
My kitty cat and I are so grateful to have Lizzie in our lives. Lizzie is my cat’s primary sitter but she doesn’t just care for her - she plays with her! Which is very important to my little cat, Sofia. Sofia always looks forward to her time with Lizzie and it makes me feel good that and has so much fun when I’m not there.
Christopher has truly been a godsend during a really difficult few weeks for my family. My dad has been in the hospital and rehab, and Christopher has been caring for his cat, Leo, for nearly three weeks now. He has been incredibly reliable, kind, communicative, and attentive, and it has given me so much peace of mind knowing Leo is being well cared for every day. I’m so grateful for him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can genuinely trust with their pet.
Cristal did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our Patches and Buddy. She fed our birds and squirrels each day and made sure that everyone had fresh water. We were able to completely relax on our vacation because each day we knew that everyone was taken care of just like we were at home. I would give her 10 stars if it were an option! We will definitely use Cristal in the future!
Joshua does a great of taking care of Shaq and Kujo. He stops by the same time every day to replenish their food and water supplies as well as clean the litter box. I get photos every day from him. They are appreciated. He spends some time with each one making sure they loved. I highly recommend him.
We got so lucky when we booked Mariangelica last minute for a 4-day check in!! Mariangelica is super kind & communicative. She was incredibly respectful of our home and showed extra love & care for our 2 cats! Every visit Mariangelica provided me with videos of her entering/locking up and leaving, play time, food plates/water area, and cleaned litter box! She also made sure to keep the areas around the liter box and food plates tidy, and followed all other instructions to a T 🤩 we will absolutely book with her in the future & recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
