âShe was recommended to us by our previous pet sitter who moved away, and we couldnât be happier. She was able to accommodate a same-day drop-in when we were in a pinch. She did everything we asked and went above and beyond, and she sent lots of lovely pictures! We will definitely be using her again in the future.â
About: What sets me apart is the amount of time and attention I can give each pet. Since I work from home, pets in my care receive frequent potty breaks, companionship, supervision, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to follow owners' instructions carefully, so pets feel safe, comfortable, and love while they're away. I pride myself on being reliable communicative and treating every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with my own pets, from their puppy stage until their current senior years. In addition, I have administered daily oral, intravenous, and eye medications to my pets. I currently work from home, so your pets can sit with me all day. They will have consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally around my workday without interfering with my job and will rarely be left alone. Pets will receive attention, exercise and care from morning through bedtime. I have a fenced yard, an older male Shih Tzu, and a young male Tuxedo cat. I am reliable and will communicate with pet parents as requested. Frequent updates and photos will be provided. I have experience with my own pets with giving medications, recognizing signs of illness, and reading pet body language.
About: With years of experience as a former veterinary technician, I specialize in caring for dogs and cats, including puppies and kittens, as well as senior pets. Now, I run a family-owned pet sitting business, providing expert care across multiple breeds. The daily or weekly routine includes feeding and watering, walks and playtime, and administering medication if necessary, while also handling other duties like cleaning the litter box and providing general companionship. The goal is to maintain consistency for the pet's health and reduce stress. I prioritize establishing and maintaining the pet's routine, which includes feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. I ensure the pet's safety by understanding their behaviors, securing the home to prevent escapes, and having all necessary supplies ready. Throughout the stay, I provide plenty of affection and engagement while communicating regularly with the client.
About: I have 5 years experience in the animal field professionally. I have learned animal behavior and signs, I have learned patience and understanding, how to build a bond, and so much more. I am currently working 4 days a week. I have three days a week I can fit your pet care needs into schedule. I can also possibly schedule times around my job the other 4 days as I work a swing shift. I have two separate fences on my property and a secured dog room that leads to the year fencing area with AC, dog bed, access in and out, fan, access to water at all times inside with an automatic water bowl outside. I have a friendly, Neutered male Golden Retriever to keep them company if preferred, or there is plenty of space to keep them separate. None smoking and no small children. For your home visits, I would respect your space and rules as well as accommodate all your needs and request a n your home.
âI highly recommend Cara! She was incredibly friendly and very attentive to my dogs. She followed every single instruction I left perfectly, and my pups absolutely loved her. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!â
âAlicia was really good!! My wife and I were soooo lucky to have her as she accepted our request last minute.

I really hope to get her services in the future again she is truly passionate about what she does and itâs hard to come by people like this in 2025. Thank You soo much and keep up the good work. đđ˝â

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Dade City
My cat and I love when Carol is his pet sitter. She takes such good care of him, giving me so much peace of mind when Iâm gone. I just got home from being away for two weeks and will be rebooking her tomorrow for my next trip. Sheâs an excellent 5-star sitter.
Carol was amazing! I had to leave my cat for two weeks, and with all the updates and pictures I got every day from Carol, I never felt worried about him. In fact, it looked like he was enjoying himself. Carol not only took excellent care of Bananas but she was very clean and neat. When I came home, it was as if she hadn't been there because the kitchen was exactly as I left it. The litter box area was very tidy as well. She completely blew me away and totally exceeded my expectations. I will absolutely be hiring her again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your catsâ 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, donât 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.

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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
