About: I have about one year of experience caring for dogs and have spent time looking after dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’m calm, patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs. I’m comfortable helping with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and keeping them company. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routine to make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work during the week, but I’m fully available on weekends and have plenty of time to give your cat the care and attention they need. I’m happy to work around their usual feeding, playtime, and care routine. I always make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and respected in their own space. I follow their usual feeding and litter box routines, keep their area clean, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and let them come to me at their own pace. I also make sure doors and windows are secure and follow any special instructions from their owner.

“Lindsey was very good with my cats. Usually they take a couple of days to warm up to anyone new in the house. They were instantly drawn to her . She was very attentive and personable with them. I was very nervous having someone new watching them but Lindsey was able to relax me with the pictures she sent me to see how fur babies were doing. She took extra special care of Mittens who has 2nd stage kidney disease in making sure he was fed and water constantly changed. The liter box area kept very clean and neat. I definitely want Linsey back on our next vacation or weekend getaway.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life. From pigs to dogs, I have taken care of a lot of animals. I started off pet siting for family members and friends and recently started caring through Rover. I love the community on the app and have had so much fun getting to know everyone’s pets. I am currently a full time student at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. I play collegiate softball which has shown me positive time management skills. I work part time as a mobility tech at an hospital and have worked multiple other jobs. Because I only work part time, my schedule is very flexible and open. I have one dog and two cats at home. My dog is full of energy so I am in charge of taking him on walks and outside on the daily. My cats are very low energy and love to sleep. I am able to care for high energy or low energy animals since I have experience with both.

“Izzy did a great job taking care of our three cats. She was extremely conscientious and was very sensitive to the cats issues especially since we were introducing two new cats into our one cat household and it was not the easiest dynamic. She was very attentive to the situation and the cats were doing well upon our return. She was very tuned into the directions about their food and litter and personalities. Izzy stayed at our home and everything was in perfect order upon our return. Izzy was very thoughtful and sending us pictures, videos, and updates. We will certainly turn to her again the next time we need pet sitting/housesitting.”

“I would HIGHLY recommend Ciara to anyone looking for pet care of any kind. She takes such amazing care of Angel everytime I board with her. I get lots of pictures and video updates of her and she is played with and watched 24/7. I trust her fully and she treats my cat as if it were her own. Ciara goes above and beyond any pet sitter I’ve had. Angel & I will miss you in Nashville!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and turtles, both as my own pets and for others. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, basic grooming, and following each pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I’m happy to adjust my care accordingly. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away and can send lots of pictures and updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and loved! My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and extended stays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can provide frequent potty breaks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality and boundaries and make sure they feel comfortable with me. I’m experienced with administering medications, including subcutaneous fluids, and I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Nicole stayed at our house with our cats for a week and did a great job following the instructions. My cats have quite the extension routine and needs and she took all the request in with no judgement. One of my cats requires oral medication every day and she took care of that as well. I was able to feel comfortable knowing that my cats were in great hands. She sent me little updates every day as well, communication was solid. When we got home, she left the house extremely clean for us, which was a nice bonus. Highly recommend!”

“Madeleine was very nice, respectful, and helpful while taking care of my cats. There were a couple of minor hiccups—she arrived late on the first day and spent quite a bit of time on her phone rather than actively playing with the cats—but overall, she provided good care, and everything went well.”

“Rachel is absolutely the best dog sitter we've ever worked with. Her timing was prompt, her communication was fantastic, and she went over and above on multiple occasions, including gracefully working with our oldest dog who had been scared by fireworks, making sure all of our pups' needs were met. We can't thank her enough!”

About: I have 1 cat at home and my partner has 1 dog who basically acts like a cat, so I am looking for an excuse to be around dogs (preferably <25 lbs) who may need some company. Friends and family have entrusted me with their pets for years (both for walks and overnight stays) and I take that responsibility incredibly seriously. I have a full-time hybrid position that has me at home on Mondays and Fridays with some flexibility from Tuesday - Thursday. On days when I am in the office, I will be home before 4:30pm for any afternoon feeding times. I am also available on weekends with advanced notice. I have a large unfenced yard and live less than a block away from a dedicated dog park. I have one small dog (15 lbs) and one cat who are happy to keep your pet company or can be kept in a different part of the house depending on your needs.

About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs. As well as rescued cats and dogs from the streets. I’ve had many animals, from goldfish, to parakeets, to cats! I’m currently taking summer classes, but I can make time for pet walking or sitting! It brings me joy so it’s always a fun time. I used to pet sit for my friend whilst she was away on vacation. I would visit in mornings and evenings to feed, entertain, and walk her dog around the neighborhood!

About: My experience with animals extends well beyond traditional pet care. I have cared for dogs and cats with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs, and I also have extensive hands-on experience with birds. My education as an animal trainer has given me a deeper understanding of behavior, positive reinforcement, body language, enrichment, and the importance of earning an animal’s trust. I am also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, following detailed care and medication instructions, maintaining established routines, and watching closely for changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. I approach every animal with patience, respect, and genuine affection, adapting my care to help each pet feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. I offer flexible scheduling and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s established routine, including daytime, evening, weekend, and holiday visits. I understand that plans can change, so I’m happy to discuss last-minute requests or adjustments whenever my availability allows. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care at the times your pet needs it most. I understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and place your pet in their care. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions closely while treating your pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. You can expect timely communication, thoughtful updates, and photos after each visit, so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.

Hanan is soooo amazing! She took lots of photos for each visit, gave me detailed updates, and is just generally a really kind person! She was so kind to coordinate handing off my keys and dropping them back off to me at my place. I realllllly appreciated that after a long business trip! Will definitely be booking again!

Cheyenne has always been our favorite sitter! She loves all animals and doesn't just drop in and do the feeding; she spends time with them and we always think our cats are a little grumpy to see us coming home instead. 🤣 Will always recommend her.

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.

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 .
