“Lisa was amazing with my boys!! Even my shy and timid baby came out to greet her!! She was on time and sent pics. Lisa was also flexible in accommodating my last minute plans to leave. I highly recommend Lisa!!”
“Kelsee is always such a phenomenal dog sitter! Our pups are so happy that she snuggles and plays with them during her drop in visits to our home. She is so thoughtful, thinking of the smallest details and she always sends the most fun pictures of our pups. We recently had one of our pups pass and Kelsee was so understanding of our changes in routines as the dynamics have been so different since losing a beloved and important member of our pack. We never have a worry when Kelsee is taking care of our dogs and she is the only sitter we ever want to use!”
“Dani has been a great caretaker for my cat. She is present, detailed, and loving and able to care for all the details my cat needs, I’m so so grateful and I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was eight years old. I’ve owned many different breeds of dogs and cats. I’ve trained both dogs and cats. I currently work full time Monday through Friday and have the weekends off. I work from 7:30 to 4:30 but am free afterwards. I am willing to work with you. I follow directions very well and if there is something you absolutely don’t want me to do, please fill free to communicate it with me.
“Raven was definitely the perfect fit to care for our fur kids! Our pets seemed to warm to her quickly and her caring personality and professional work ethic remained obvious throughout. Both our dogs are senior gals, and Raven was wonderful in approaching them with the extra tenderness necessary. She was also great about providing daily updates, photos, and occasional videos that really helped our comfort level while gone. I’m sure related to the additional stress caused by our absence our dogs seemed to have more “accidents” than usual, which Raven not only cleaned up readily, but she also patrolled daily for further accidents or other abnormalities in the environment…she even discovered some mischief our cats had caused and sent us photos!. We are so happy to have found Raven, her compassion and professionalism is first rate, and we will not hesitate to reach out to her in the future to care for our kids!”
“Hannah clearly has a heart for animals! I had her come over for a "meet and greet" with my pup Luna who can be very timid around new people, but Luna clearly thinks Hannah is okay! We look forward to doing some doggie day care with Hannah in the future :)”
“Amy was amazing with our senior dog! She was so gentle, patient, and understanding. As a professional, Amy excels as well. She stayed in communication with us, took pictures or video, and was always on time. Our dog has some special needs and medications, and Amy made sure that everything was done just right. Amy is a joy to work with, and I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
About: I have a high drive working German Shepherds, and husky. I have always been full of energy and taking care of crackhead dogs give me a lot of patience, so puppies and active dogs are my favorite and specialty! And I've been bitten and scratched enough times, it almost tickles... Almost During hot months my dogs are given all attention in the evening/at night and during cold months my dogs are given all attention in the afternoon so there is a period of time where I can help take care of yours outside of pet care and work! I will make sure to follow strict instructions and be very attentive and watchful of your pup! My own dogs schedule consist of playing, walking, training, cuddling, feeding and potty every 4-6 hours! And I would love to treat your pet with the same amount of needs whenever you feel you can't! No dog left behind!
“Willow watched our house and animals while we went overseas for over 2 weeks. She did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, the chickens and Baba the turkey. She also was in charge of keeping our gardens watered during super hot tempertures. And she managed to keep all my bird feeders and hummingbird feeders well maintained. It was a lot to expect from someone, but Willow proved to be the right choice for this job. I am very thankful that we found her. I will definitely use her again for our next outing. Thank you.”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and have cared for them through every stage of life. I raised both of my dogs from puppies. One lived to be 18, and the other was with me for 15 years. I also raised a cat from a kitten who lived to be 16 and adopted an adult cat who stayed with me well into her senior years. Caring for my own pets from their earliest days through their senior years gave me experience with everything from puppy and kitten care, to medications, mobility changes, and noticing the little things that can make a big difference in their comfort and quality of life. Friends and family have always counted on me to care for their pets while they’re away, so I’m comfortable with a wide variety of personalities, routines, and medical needs. I know every pet is different, and my goal is to help yours feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Friday (8-5), but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer several services throughout the week. Dog walks: My favorite service! Available most weekdays early before work, during lunch (for nearby clients), and after work. I’m also available for walks throughout most weekends. House sitting: I have the most flexibility on weekends, but I can also be available for house sitting during the week with advance notice. If you have reliable Wi-Fi and are comfortable with it, I’m able to work remotely from your home so your pet can enjoy extra company while staying in their normal routine. Drop-in visits: Available during weekday lunch breaks for nearby clients, as well as on weekends. If you’re unsure whether your schedule will work with mine, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to see if we can make it work! I believe pets are happiest in their own home, where they can keep their normal routine. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll care for your pet and your home with the same respect and attention I’d give my own.
About: I have a dog and three cats, I do school online and have a very open schedule. I grew up with animals and babysit frequently. I’ve watched rabbits to horses and everything in between.

I have fostered a wonderful environment for my pets at home. My dogs fully trained on and off leash. He has excellent recall and trust with me. My cats are all free range in the house and we have gates put in place so they can have their own space. While watching others pets I am very proactive and careful of where I bring them and watch them carefully.
“Anabelle took a good care of Bear (male cat) over the last two weeks through her daily visits. She made sure Bear got everything he needed. I loved getting Ana's daily updates and photos of Bear—it really gave me peace of mind. Thank you, Ana. I appreciate you.”

About: Super experienced with pitbulls and puppies. Dogs are special friends who add a high level of joy to my heart ❤️ I say hi to all the dogs I pass on the street ☺️ I am a single parent with 50% custody and work part time so I have extra time for full time love for your dog family members ❤️ I live 2 minutes from a sweet dog walking area around a lake and I prioritize making sure the dog’s needs before leaving for the day!
About: I believe the best thing about pet sitting is offering pets the same love and attention that their owners give them. I am easy going, very reliable and will follow all instructions for your pet’s care. I care for both domestic and farm animals. ❤️ I’m retired so my schedule is flexible. That makes it easier for drop in visits. When I stay over, I may need to leave for an errand but I will be at your home as expected.

About: I have had pets my whole life and have been caring for them at an early age. One of my first jobs was at a dog daycare facility that included boarding, house sitting and dog walking in our services. I have 5+ years experience in the veterinary field.

About: I've been actively taking care of dogs and cats for other military families since July 2018. Most of this care has been centered around boarding for long vacations or deployments. I provide boarding for all dog breeds, boarding includes; feeding, walking, baths, and cuddles. When your dog is in my care, they are treated like my own dogs. For cats I provide drop in care because most cats don't like being removed from their homes. I am a huge cat person and when your cat is in my care I will do anything to gain their trust. I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to provide board and drop in care daily. I am home most days from work at 3pm and have weekends off. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs of my own who are eager to play with new friends. I love to do treat hunts with toys and go for daily walks.

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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
