“Jiamin did an excellent job checking in on, playing with, and feeding our two cats while we were away for a few days! She followed instructions perfectly and made sure our cats actually ate (one gets distracted very easily) and gave them lots of love and play time. She gave detailed updates and sent lots of photos and pics which we appreciated and enjoyed. We will definitely use Jiamin again!”
“Sheila took great care of our cat Stella while we were away for a very busy, holiday weekend. We didn’t have to worry at all because we knew she was in great hands. So happy we can trust Sheila when we’re gone.. Stella is happy to see her too!”
About: I may be new to cat caretaking, but I pull a lot of wisdom from many cat parents around me! Communication is very important to me and I want to make sure your cat is well taken care of while you're away! I work remotely and can easily stop by to check on your cat twice a day. Google calendar is one of my favorite tools to stay organized! I would like to speak with you first to discuss in depth what works/doesn't work for your pet as well as the rules of your home. Respect is key!
About: I’ve had pets just about all of my life, and I would say(with other people’s testimonies), that I am almost like a whisperer to them. Cats or dogs or anything that don’t like other people almost always like me, given some time of course. I’m understanding of every pets needs being different either drastically or minutely! Anything needed I can accommodate to! I have classes Monday through Thursday from 8AM-1PM for college in Middletown, but I typically have free time sometimes before class as well if needed in the morning, then return home at around 1:30-2PM. I work a part time job on only some days of the week, typically in the evenings. Safe to say, it won’t be very difficult to fit pet care in. I’m not someone that likes to keep pets locked up in a cage or kennel, I prefer to have them out with me, getting to know them! I love them too much to not be around them all the time. I keep a close eye on them and ensure they don’t get into anything they’re not supposed to. Furthermore, I keep all doors closed all the way, including doors with a screen door just to be safe, unless the pet likes to look outside and is well behaved with control to stay inside. I don’t lack effort in the areas of safety and carefulness.
About: I have taken care of animals for most of my life in a way that makes the animal and owner comfortable, happy, and meets their needs. I have another job that I work for and my hours vary but I am still able to see the animal(s) at many times if needed. I have more availability during the summer time. If I am spending an afternoon in a clients home, I will find one spot to sit in and let the animals approach me. I'll make myself available, and show them I am here to care for them. I believe in earning their trust.
“Caroline was so kind and helpful. She worked over the Christmas holidays so we could visit family. She was in communication during the entire time of her visit and went above and beyond...bringing our mail in as well as taking the trash out! My fluffies are scaredy cats (pun intended), but she was still able to catch glimpses. I couldn't recommend her more!”
About: Over the years I have taken care of many different kinds of animals including dogs and cats (of which I've owned two of each), guinea pigs, mice, and more! In my veterinary science classes, I learned a lot about the handling of dogs, cats, and small animals and got lots of hands-on experience working with dogs during weekly grooming days. Previously, I have worked in a dog hotel as a kennel assistant where I provided many different services for dogs including feeding, cleaning and walking. Along with this, I also often pet sit for my friends and family :D I have a good amount of time on weekdays to look after pets. If anything pops up that will be communicated through messages or on my calendar 👍 I have experience working with a variety of tempers in dogs, cats, and other animals. I'm very patient with nervous/shy animals and can match a higher energy as well.
“Kerry is awesome! She took a booking with me last minute that I urgently needed and was so understanding of my situation. She instantly made friends with my cats upon getting to my home and made sure she had a full understanding of everything before I left. She sent tons of pictures and really nice, informative updates. Would 100% book with Kerry again and recommend her to anyone! Thanks Kerry from Menu, Cactus, and I (:”
“Courtney was so attentive and accommodating, she updated me every day, took a bunch of pictures, and just overall communicated very well. Would definitely recommend and rebook her.”
About: I’ve cared for both mine and my neighbor’s cats for several years and have begun walking dogs this past year. My goal through these visits is to prioritize your furry friends’ comfort while ensuring they have what they need to be and feel safe and healthy! I’m a full time GMU student with a car on campus! This allows me to have a flexible schedule outside of class hours to visit and check in with your pets. 8 years of owning a cat has taught me that animals tend to be very transparent about their boundaries and wants once you know what to look for, and respecting these boundaries while keeping them healthy is my top priority as your sitter!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve regularly dog and cat sat for friends and neighbors, and I have two dogs of my own. I’ve also previously had a bunny, so I’m comfortable caring for different types of pets and making sure each one feels safe, loved, and comfortable! I currently have a flexible schedule while I look for my next job, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! I already walk my own dogs twice a day, so your pup would get the same routine, exercise, and attention. I’m happy to keep their usual feeding and walking schedule, send regular updates and photos, and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m a very responsible, patient, and attentive person, and I take pet safety seriously. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they’re in a clean, comfortable, and secure environment. I’m careful to follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions, and I always pay close attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care.
About: I love animals and understand how hard it can be to find someone you trust with your own. I have 40 years of experience owning and nurturing dogs, and cats. I would love the chance to help care for your 4 legged children when needed. Currently I work weekends at a brewery, so I am available to walk your dog while you work M-F. Please feel free to contact me with any questions 🙂 I have 4 cats, a bunny and a 55 gallon fish tank currently. I love walking and caring for dogs but all animals are available for care with my services.

“We can't thank Melodie enough for taking care of Simba while we were away this past week. Received updates and photos, and felt comfortable being away knowing Simba was well taken care of. We will be sure to hire Melodie next time we go away. Our house and pet were in fantastic hands! Thanks Melodie!!”
About: As a part-time behavior technician, I have developed strong skills in patience, attentiveness, responsibility, and providing individualized care. My experience has taught me the importance of understanding different needs, maintaining routines, and creating a safe and positive environment. I’m passionate about animal care and enjoy staying active through walks and outdoor activities. I strive to provide every pet with dependable care, attention, affection, and a comfortable experience while their owners are away. i’m currently part time! although i am available through the rest of afternoon, maybe early in the morning infact.Ill let you know more when needed discuss once giving them food and water i do check up every 5-10 minutes to see if they have ate and if did, i do them couple more minutes (est. 10 mins) before taking them out and walking them to use the bathroom. Medication i read the labels and instructions and when it comes to rest i make sure they are comfortable in their own space
“Elena was fantastic with my two dogs. She checked on them for several days and did a great job making sure they were feed and taken care of. Communication was easy and it gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable pet care.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Donovans Corner
Jiamin was amazing!! She was super helpful, I had notes on what had to be done, and she went above and beyond to care for my two cats. It was clear she cared for them and loved them too. And she kept us updated with all the details and pics/vireos, really made our time away much more enjoyable knowing my cats were in good hands 🥰
Tamara watched our three cats for a weekend and did a great job! She made sure they were fed, pet, and played with while we were away and also gave one of our cats a pill with every meal (and made sure the pill was taken). She followed our care directions and took great care in our home!
I traut Mariel with all of my pets and home visits. I have left my dog twice and have also had her take care of my cats while i was away. She is easy to communicate with, shows genuine love for your pets, and always seams to go above and beyond. Someone you can count on for all the issues that can come up. Strongly recommend her to anyone!
Jenesis exceeded our expectations when caring for our cat during daily visits. We appreciate her kindness and communication, particularly how she left us a status note for each day when sending photos of our pet. We will not hesitate to reach out to her in the future!
Caroline was so kind and helpful. She worked over the Christmas holidays so we could visit family. She was in communication during the entire time of her visit and went above and beyond...bringing our mail in as well as taking the trash out!

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. 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
