“Sam was really great with my 9-year-old kitty! She sent updates and photos daily, was responsive, and overall a great communicator. At one point she told me a storm was expected and that she would be with my boy when it was thundering when he gets nervous. She also made smart decisions about not letting him out into his catio when it was too hot. Sam even gave the stray kitties in the yard some love, which was really sweet. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals. Highly recommend!”
“Rebeca was absolutely AMAZING! We got so many updates throughout each day and she was so prepared to care for our baby. She went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. Will definitely be using her from now on. I felt so safe leaving our baby who has special medical needs in her hands.”
“Alexis took great care of Penne, and everything was taken care of just as discussed. Penne is usually shy but she really liked Alexis! Will definitely reach out again if I need someone to look after Penne”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 11. I grew up in Coral Gables, walking our family dog as soon as I was old enough to hold the leash. I’ve since helped family and friends with their own pets as needed. During the pandemic I was a foster mom for kittens that needed round-the -clock care, which eventually led to me adopting my cat, Milo. He came to me as a foster who was terrified of people. He’s six years old now, and though he’s slow to trust others, he seems to love me so I must’ve done something right! I’m available throughout the day as needed. Just send me a message and we can coordinate a time that works best for you and your pet! Having lived in the Gables practically all my life, I know all the best place to take your dog on a walk! I’m also very familiar with Coconut Grove and South Miami. When it comes to cats, I’ve been successfully taking care of my cat, Milo, since I adopted him as a kitten six years ago. I’ll always make sure your dog has had a wonderful, safe walk around the neighborhood. If it’s a drop-in visit for a dog or cat, I’ll make sure to play with them and assure they’re comfortable and have everything they need. I can also administer oral or topical medication for dogs and cats, such as pills or ointments if needed.
“Haley was amazing with our kitty! Super attentive when going over everything, and took great care of her! She is kind and professional! Our somewhat timid cat warmed up to her instantly, and we received tons of great photos the whole time we were gone! We will definitely be using her again, and you should too!”
About: I have always been a dog owner and I have experience being a dog foster where I have helped many dogs with their previous trauma, such as anxiety and PTSD that was caused by being on the streets and even being mistreated by their previous owners. I offered them love, care and extra attention. I also have experience house training dogs and even getting them to do the simple “sit”, “stay” commands. Overall, I love animals and I am committed to give them the best care possible. I work remotely so I am available for boarding on weekdays and weekends from AM to PM. Please feel free to reach out to me. I currently live in an apartment with no pets of my own and no yard but I have a very flexible schedule where I can take the dog for hourly walks.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats since I was little. I am a certified dog trainer at school, helping puppies at their beginning training stage! I cut my cat’s nails! I’m currently a full-time college student living off-campus. I have class every day but do have time to go back during breaks if needed. I also work on campus. I wake up fairly early and go to bed late. When dog sitting, I make sure the home is clean, confirm the dog(s)/cat(s) are eating, drinking water, and doing their business. If necessary, I know how to crate an animal and am comfortable with older pets as well.

I’m respectful of both your pets and your home and will make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away.
“Sofia was a perfect sitter for my two cats Uma and Nya while we were away visiting family during Memorial Day weekend. She was prompt to show up for feedings, playtime and followed directions to the tee! Would not hesitate to ask her to care for them again! The time of her visit, and pictures gave us peace of mind during our time away!!”
“We had a wonderful second time with Karla as our sitter! I can tell my cat loves her and is comfortable with her! Karla gives her lots of play and attention and sends so many pictures so I know what my cat has been up to! She does an amazing job!”

About: I’m calm, patient, and very attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I raised my rescue cat from 3 months old after bringing her home from Dubai, and I’ve also fostered a kitten who needed three different medications six times a day while recovering from several illnesses. That experience taught me to be especially observant, consistent, and comfortable with hands-on care. I’m comfortable with kittens and puppies, as well as older or more sensitive pets. Whether your pet needs lots of cuddles, a long walk, a little extra patience, or medication on a strict schedule, I treat them like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. (Follow paw adventures here, Tiktok: littlepaw_club). Right now, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy building my routine around pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting, and I’m able to give pets plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I’m naturally a homebody, so I especially enjoy having a furry companion around for walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I like to keep pets comfortable by sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I follow feeding, walking, medication, and sleep schedules closely, while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’m also very attentive to changes in behavior or appetite and will communicate with you throughout their stay so you always know how they’re doing. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and leave everything just as I found it. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

“Mia took wonderful care of my cat while I was away and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. My cat is used to spending time outdoors and absolutely loves being outside so I really appreciated that she made sure he got plenty of sunshine every day, usually 30 minutes to an hour. Mia is communicative and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. Throughout my cat’s stay I always felt reassured that he was in great hands. Since he stayed with her for nearly a month she even went the extra mile and bought him a few toys to help him feel more comfortable and at home. I highly recommend Mia to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I would absolutely trust her with my cat Mowgli again.”

Mariya and her partner were excellent. My cat is a little reactive but they did a great job trying to play and get her to warm up! I had one day where I thought she was missing (she was just hiding but was not in her usual place for hours) and they came over earlier and found her for me and moved the camera so I could see her, which eased my anxiety as my cat is a senior.
Pia was absolutely wonderful with my cats! They’re normally very shy and took to her so quickly, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away. She sent regular updates and adorable pictures of my babies, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Pia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur babies! 🐾❤️
Rebeca was incredible! She took great care of our cat and sent us pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. She was very attentive to our cat’s needs, proactive, and incredibly helpful. When our flight was unexpectedly canceled, she went to our place for an extra day to make sure our cat was taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. We highly recommend Rebeca and will definitely book her again!
I wish I could give Chrystal 6 stars! She went above and beyond and took care of every possible unexpected situation. Zulu and Lili were both very well cared for, and we can’t thank her enough for the attention, affection, and peace of mind she gave us. Highly recommend Chrystal!
Jennifer did a fantastic job of caring for my cat while I was out of town. She checked in with me during every visit and sent plenty of photos and videos. She did a great job of cleaning up after my cat and went above and beyond to even vacuum up all the litter she tracked around the house. Thank you, Jennifer!

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.
