“Pawsitively an INCREDIBLE cat sitter! We are on the road for 2.5 months for work, and Meranda makes sure our cats are happy and cared for the entire time! She always gives them playtime and cuddles, and we love seeing all of the pictures she takes of them! Meranda is an absolute gem to work with and we are so happy we found her. She goes above and beyond for us and our cats, and is genuinely an amazing person!”
“Angel is the best and will always be our go-to for all of our kitties!! We have 6 cats, some with bigger personalities, and she does so good taking care of them all and making sure each of them get attention.

Margaret did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 finicky, mature cats. She has great communication, and she was persistent in winning them both over and figuring out how to get Jimmy to take his meds. I strongly recommend Margaret and would definitely hire her again.
Hannah went above and beyond when taking care of Lady! Kept in contact with me, asking questions if needed. She gave Lady lots of love and care! She took the best pictures of my lil Lady, including the process of giving Lady her daily pill and nebulizer! She made sure to be gentle and accommodating, (cuz Lady can be shy at first) which led Lady to feel comfortable and trusting around her! Did amazing taking care of my elderly cat with medical needs! :)
Christina was the best! she took excellent care of our kiddos and even got our most sensitive cat to eat his meals (and take his meds!) without any issue! she sent us tons of photos, was super communicative, and super flexible. 10/10 recommend her for all your pet needs!!
Crystal is a cat whisperer - my incredibly shy cat Katie hides for all visitors. But she finally emerged for Crystal! Thanks to Crystal’s consistent effort to show Katie that she’s a friendly and non-threatening helper over the course of visits during the last several months. Thank you for going above and beyond, Crystal!

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 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 .

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.
