“Aileen was confident since the first moment and attracted Kali with a smart and calm playful way. I am secure to have Aileen on my vacation and she is ready to be helpful and reliefing.

“Arillia is fantastic!! She was professional and very warm with our kitties. She provided great updates with pictures, and relieved my worries about being away from my cats. Looking forward to working with her again!”
About: I have helped raised 5 dogs in the span of twenty five years. I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from age six months upwards to twelve. My current job has a sporadic schedule which affords me a lot of free time. I will only schedule boarding on days I know I will be free. I have a big, fenced yard with plenty of running space. I also have a room in the house if a private room is more to your pet’s liking.
About: Your pup will be enjoying a spacious home with the accompaniment of a hot dog! We are able to sit for other animals as well: hamsters, rabbits, reptiles, even fish. We have a fenced yard in the back as well as comfortable carpeting for your pup to scratch its ears. We welcome pets on weekends or when you go on vacation! Rest assured that your pet is in good hands! I need 5 more words... About my yard Backyard is made of concrete, I've specially built a doggy potty area for pups to use.
About: While I’m new to dog sitting, I bring a lot of patience, a love for animals, and a strong willingness to learn. I’m dependable and will follow your care instructions closely. I may not have years of experience, but I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work at a school, so I’m available on weekends for pet walks, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. With summer approaching, my schedule will be much more open. Please feel free to refer to my calendar, as I do my best to keep it up to date. I’m committed to providing consistent, loving care by following your pet’s routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I have over a year of experience caring for pets and offer pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks. I always follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent, including feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and any special care. During drop-ins and walks, I make sure your pet gets the attention, activity, and care they need. For pet sitting, I provide a calm, safe environment in your home while being respectful of your space. I care for every pet with patience, kindness, and genuine love, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
About: I absolutely adore animals. From the age of 6 I thought I wanted to be a vet. I even went down that path in college. Until I realized I wanted to be a nurse instead. I have worked as an ER nurse for the last 10 years. I have experience giving meds to my own animals ( a 9 year old Schnoodle and a 4 year old cat). I’ve also gotten into senior care for my dog that now currently wears diapers. Brings a whole new meaning when you call your pets your babies:) I’m friendly, communicative, flexible and respectful. If you think I’m a good fit, please reach out so we can discuss your needs:) I currently have some extra free time and have a pretty open schedule. If you have needs outside my schedule please let me know and I will see if I can make it work! I have a cat and dog of my own and have had countless pets over the years. I don’t have kids so they are truly my pride and joy. I will treat your pets and gain their trust just as I would my own animals!
About: Hi! I’m Natalie and I am a San Francisco native. I was adopted from Guatemala and brought here as a small baby! I have been working as a veterinary technician for over 3 years, starting out as a CSR in a veterinary hospital. I have worked for my sister’s business, One Paw At A Time, for many years which includes daily dog walks, in-home boarding and behavioral training. I have also worked at a large dog and cat day care/boarding facility in the city! I have worked with all types of breeds and ages, including our pets who need special attention or extra care. I am completely comfortable with giving fluids, medications and injections. I have owned multiple cats and dogs throughout childhood and have helped raise 7 puppies when mom gave birth in our home. I am very reliable and have my own transportation to help last second! I am a full-time technician but I’m available all-day Tuesday and Wednesday of each week. I am free before 8:00 A.M. and after 4:30 P.M on Mondays and Thursdays. During my work week I can do feedings, litter box cleaning and at-home care after 8:30 P.M. and before 12:00 P.M. My cats are all indoor and are safe within my own apartment with plenty of cat trees, toys and room to run around and play. I care mainly that my animals and your own are comfortable by having freshwater daily, a clean litter box and plenty of play time. I have cameras in my own home as some of my cats can be quite mischievous and for their safety. I make sure that all food is put away and that my windows and doors are closed before I leave to go somewhere. I follow all rules and all feeding instructions. I also like to keep great communication between my clients so they know that they can trust me entering their home. If videos and pictures are requested, I can very much do that.
“Kendra was great with our three cats! It was our first time using Rover for cat sitting while out of town and she made the process so easy and enjoyable. Our cats were very shy and scared to come out for someone new but she took great care of them. Would absolutely recommend :)”
“Lisha was fantastic! So responsive — quick to reply and always on top of things. Super communicative too, with thorough updates after every visit on how Tibbs and Rayo were doing, what they ate, all of it. And she sent lots of great photos of the cats, which I loved. My shy guy Rayo hid at first but was purring and letting her pet him within a few days; Tibbs adored her from day one. Food, water, litter all handled, and she even flagged their dying toy laser. Would book again.”

“Genesis is exactly who I hoped I could trust with my cats. She was everything and more! I am so grateful to her. She gave me all the updates I could want and I truly think she got to know my cats on a level that is rare for someone who has just met them. 10/10!!”
“Emily was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She took such great care of Louie while we were out of town for the week and treated him with so much gentleness and attention. She made sure he was well fed, comfortable, and clearly cared for, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s obvious she truly loves animals, and Louie was in great hands. I would happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable cat sitter.”

“Jana took great care of my two cats Abbi and Ilana while I was away for 11 days on a climbing trip. She was warm and kind and sent lovely photos every day. It seems like the girls had a nice time and I would definitely board them with Jana again!”

I’m happy to help whenever I’m needed as long as my schedule permits :) I care for pets every single day! Growing up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs and chickens has taught me so much about caring for animals.

“Eric is fantastic! Having worked with him before, we knew our cats were in excellent hands. He’s reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves what he does. Our cats, Charlie and Olive, adore him and are always well cared for. He sends daily updates, pays close attention to detail, and always leaves the house spotless. We truly appreciate his kindness and professionalism and look forward to many more stays!”

Duygu was a JOY to meet and to have as a sitter. We have never left our cats this long so I was very nervous. But when we met Duygu, she immediately put me at ease because she was so obviously competent, seemed at ease with all the instructions, and was truly kind to us AND the cats. I could go on, but I'll leave it at that for now (because I hope to have her back next time we go away and then I can say more 😊). 110% recommend!
Was so relieved to find mavis when my petting plans fell through last minute and I needed someone to watch my Merlin while I was away for over a week. Mavis made me feel very at ease leaving him with someone who wasn’t family or a close friend for the first time and made sure to keep me updated throughout. Highly recommend!
Aileen was confident since the first moment and attracted Kali with a smart and calm playful way. I am secure to have Aileen on my vacation and she is ready to be helpful and reliefing. Aileen took extra time to make sure everything is understood and meet us on personal level. Thank you for your help
This is the second time Hillary took care of our cats and she did a great job once again! Right before our trip, one of our cats needed to take medicine and we couldn’t finish the regimen before leaving. Hillary was able to give our cat the pills when she visited which was a huge boon.
Aaron communicates in a timely manner, leaves thorough check-in updates through photos, and demonstrates a high-degree of care and responsibility. Most importantly, he is patient and respects cats’ space, not forcing an interaction while also taking the time to try and make my very shy cat feel comfortable. Aaron gets the job done, taking care of his food and litter area, never cutting corners on cleanliness. I also appreciate his flexibility when I had to make a last minute service change. Aaron’s level of care gives me 100% peace of mind when I’m away from my home and cat.
Blessy was fantastic! I booked a sitter for 2 guinea pigs very last minute and she was available for both a first meeting and the dates I requested. She was incredibly responsive and had great communication. I even made a mistake while booking and she pointed it out to me and clarified! She was incredibly sweet and attentive, sending me updates and keeping the piggies happy. She also cleaned more than I asked her to! Would definitely rebook with her. Thanks Blessy!
Lydia was a fantastic sitter! She gave me daily updates with multiple photos. I see my bunny Alistair was well taken care of and so were my plants! She even restocked my buns romaine lettuce when he ran out. It was very much appreciated! I would book with Lydia again when I need care for my bun!

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.
