“Rachael was incredibly responsive and was so wonderfully flexible helping me out in a last minute scramble. She was very attentive with my cats and they loved having her drop in! Would definitely recommend.”
“Hayley was amazing! I was super nervous to leave my kitties, especially since one is so shy/anxious and the other is an escape artist. But Hayley took great care of my girls, kept them safe, fed, and happy! They immediately loved her and could tell she’s a cat person too:) She was great with communication and giving picture updates. I will definitely be using her again! Couldn’t recommend her more. Thanks Hayley!”
“Isabelle was a godsend. She took care of my kitty for a week while I was on vacation. She sent me daily updates with pictures and even cleaned Charlottes dishes and some of mine!!!”
“Diana is a great cat sitter. She loves our cat Kuma genuinely always petting her for a while. Kuma feels comfortable with her. We love the pictures Diana took. They’re artistic and cool. Thank you Diana for letting us travel relaxed without worrying too much about Kuma.”
“FANTASTIC. took so much love and care to my fuzzy babies. Will be using her exclusively to check on our babies as needed 🫶🏻 even was able to give my difficult kitty her oral medications.”
“Tara is hands down the best cat sitter we’ve ever had. She has been so kind to us and our boys and left us a long message with details of each drop in visit. It was so great to hear that she gave them play time and pets as well. I did not have to worry about my cats at all while I was away for my wedding, I knew they were in great hands! I can’t wait to have Tara take care of them again the next time we’re away!”
“Rhea was absolutely wonderful with my cat while I was away! She visited twice a day, sent me lots of adorable pictures, and always left little notes with updates. She spoiled him with extra playtime and treats, and I could tell he was so happy and comfortable in her care. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. I would definitely book with Rhea again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter!”
“Carlie is FABULOUS! She had quality visits with my two dogs, and provided thorough, insightful honest feedback about how each was doing. One is an elder requiring heart meds. He showed some signs of stress on one of her visits which she described to a T. She had the good judgement to give him a pee and poo break but forego the walk with him. Next visit he was great. Based upon her feedback I felt completely confident that they were in the best possible hands. Carlie is a vet tech, and this added skill/ experience was obvious in how she handled things. She is a woman of kind and gentle temperament and great skill. I could not recommend her more highly. THANK YOU CARLIE!”
“Rachel is an absolutely fantastic cat sitter! We can truly relax and enjoy our time away knowing our cats are in such caring and capable hands. She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and treats them with so much love and care. It’s such a comfort to know they’re happy and well looked after while we’re gone. We highly, highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tori did a fantastic job pet sitting for us while we were away last week. Our kitties were happy and well cared for, and we came home to a house that was spotless—which I REALLY appreciated, especially since I’m very particular about litter being tracked around!! 😜 She was reliable, attentive, and clearly took great care of both our pets and our home. We felt totally at ease while we were away and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Sierra — I graduated with my M.S in elementary education and I am currently focusing on nannying/dog walking. I have over 6 years of pet care experience in Fairfield County. I’ve worked with a variety of families through both a professional pet care company (for 5 years) and on my own. I absolutely love animals and have a dog and five cats of my own, so I really understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I’m responsible, flexible, and always make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ve got you covered! I also have amazing references that I can send over.😊 I’m currently available during the day during the week and anytime on weekends. I am also flexible when needed. I can’t wait to hear from you! When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and exercise routines. I make sure the home stays safe and secure, sticking to the pet’s usual schedule to keep them comfortable. I give plenty of attention and monitor their health, while keeping their space clean and respecting the client’s home. I also send regular updates to owners and quickly communicate any concerns. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care that puts both pets and owners at ease.
About: Although most of my formal rescue work has been with cats, dogs have always been part of my life too. I adopted my Shiba Inu in 2019, and caring for him as he’s aged has given me real-world experience with senior dog needs. He’s now 11+ with a heart condition that requires medication twice a day, and I handle all of his care — nail trims, baths, daily walks, and occasional vet‑prescribed injections for arthritis. He’s taught me so much about patience, routine, and gentle medical handling. Beyond my own dog, I’ve helped care for many dogs belonging to friends and family, each with their own personality and quirks. I’ve worked with a loud, high-energy Red Heeler; several bold little “Napoleon” Chihuahuas; a nervous, skeptical Dachshund; a giant, gentle German Shepherd; multiple Boston Terriers; a super-smart, high-energy Poodle/Yorkie mix; and a regal Doberman Pinscher. These dogs have given me hands-on experience with everything from anxious and spicy temperaments to confident, goofy, or highly intelligent behavior. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs — playing fetch, going for long walks, or even tackling a strenuous hike. Having a good dog as a companion makes those moments even better. I may be a cat specialist by profession, but I’m a dedicated dog owner by heart, and I bring that same love, attentiveness, and adaptability to every dog I look after. Every day I take care of my own personal and foster animals (cats and 1 dog) and then start making my rounds to feed the local feral colonies. Pet care is my life, not just my routine. There isn't a day that goes by where I am not caring for animals. I will happily comply with my client's instructions about the routine for their pet. I am comfortable giving treats, playing, petting, going on walks/hikes/car rides, feeding, brushing, and crating. I understand that animals thrive on consistency and I am able to provide that for them.
About: Your pet is family. I treat them with love and sincere care. Their safety, happiness and well-being are my priories. Walk, play, quality time together.. My schedule is wide-open. I have the ability to make drop-in visits, walk, play, sit in your home, give medications. (Able to help doctors/nurses and those who work alternate schedules, 12 hour shifts and those who want to leave their pets in good hands). I will listen to your routine, your pet schedule, your pet’s personality, likes/dislikes and behaviors. I will follow your instructions and provide updates whether it be walking, feeding, playing, sitting your pet.
“Jenn is an outstanding dog walker. She has great training skills taught our puppy how to ‘leave it’ and reinforces other good behaviors. She is reliable and trustworthy. We strongly recommend her!!!”
About: With my own 8 year old Australian Shepard (Layla 🐶) and years of pet sitting for family and friends, I bring both personal experience and genuine love for animals. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and caring environment for every pet. I am currently a full-time Montessori pre-school teacher. Looking to fill some of my free time caring for pets! I love animals and am looking forward to meeting yours! You can trust that I will follow your rules and routines for your furry friend. Safety is of the utmost importance. I will treat your pet as if they were my own!

Maria did a wonderful job of caring for my sweet, nervous cat, Lily. Lily has some medical needs and Maria followed my instructions and administered Lily's meds well. I was initially nervous about leaving Lily under someone else's care, however, Maria did a great job and answered my questions, kept me informed. I appreciate the help from Maria, thanks so much! I would hire Maria again.
Sarah was a life saver!! The day I had to leave for NH my babysitter had to bail, I scrambled to find someone to care for my sweet little lady Penny 🐈 and Sarah came that SAME afternoon to drop in and take care of her for us. Amazing! Penny takes a long while to warm up to people, but within a few days she was giving Sarah head bumps, which really proves that Sarah has great vibes!! I’m so relieved and thankful! 😌 💜
Autumn is an amazing cat sitter. She is reliable, caring, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when we got home. She kept us updated, paid attention to the little details, and treated our pet like her own. We would absolutely recommend Autumn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tori did a fantastic job pet sitting for us while we were away last week. Our kitties were happy and well cared for, and we came home to a house that was spotless—which I REALLY appreciated, especially since I’m very particular about litter being tracked around!! 😜 She was reliable, attentive, and clearly took great care of both our pets and our home. We felt totally at ease while we were away and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Kayla was truly phenomenal taking care of our cats. She was on time for every appointment and very communicative each day. She even got one of our cats, who never comes out for strangers, to come out for the visit and ensure she was cared for. We are very happy with Kayla and would absolutely book her in the future.
Jamie was excellent with our 2 cats while we were away for 2 weeks. He came for daily visits to care for their needs and provided us with updates and pictures after each visit. This is at least our fifth time using Jamie and Danae and we would highly recommend them.
Will is kind, communicative, punctual and trustworthy. He was great taking care of my pets and I wouldn’t hesitate to have him again. I felt great knowing he was taking care of them when I was far away traveling. I’d highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a great pet sitter.

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.

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.
