“Mitchell did a great job handling our 2 (somewhat unfriendly to strangers) energetic dogs. He was prompt, provided many pictures of walking the dogs, and the dogs came home relaxed & happy. We will be using Mitchell again!”
“Gabrielle is great! She took great care of our cats and took care of all their medications and issues, and even helped manage some ants that made themselves at home while we were away!”
“What a God send Sandra is. I am halfway across the world and the way she cares for my fur baby brought me peace of mind. So glad to have found her and I’m sure my Loki boy feels the same way.”
“Dakota was great! Prompt, took lots of pics and the boys loved spending time with him! He is also able to walk to hyper corgis at the same time and that says a lot! ? thank you!!”
“A big thank you to Anne for dropping in to feed Benny and keep him company. He was a happy little couch potato when we got home and it was very reassuring to know he was in Anne's good hands while we were out. We really appreciate the photos and status that let us know everything was well. We look forward to next time!”
“I could not be more emphatic with my recommendation of Chalise. Stop your search now, and just book her. I’ve had a relatively effective dog sitter for the last several years, but recently discovered some disappointing news that forced us to look elsewhere (thank you Nest Cam). I decided to give Rover, and Chalise, a try and could not be happier. During our 11 day vacation Chalise came to visit Oobie twice a day for walks and feeding. She journaled each visit with a description of events and included photos. My daughter who’s particularly close to Oobie was very sad to leave him, but Chalise’s journal entries were (sadly enough after an expensive European vacation ?) her favorite part of he trip. We felt connected and well informed with how things were going back home, which allowed us to unwind and stay present during our trip. Chalise is our new forever-dog-sitter and I’d recommend her to anyone that asks.”
“Megan was wonderful to work with. She was responsible, kind, and very reliable throughout the entire booking. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was patient and caring with my shy cat, and I really appreciated her thoughtful care. I would definitely book with Megan again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Yongxin was very good at watching our cat for 5 days. Because our cat is elderly, there required meds to be administered. We had printed instructions which were very well executed. The communication was also very efficient. She replied in a timely manner. I also liked seeing the daily pictures of the well being of our cat. Yongxin is very professional and efficient, yet caring with good instincts. I would call on her again!”
“Thank you for taking care of our kitty! This is the second time Leilani has taken care of our pet, and she is great at leaving us updates and pictures, even if the kitty is reluctant to come out. Thank you!”
“Maria was amazing and went above and beyond to take care of our Leo, administering medication for him and even taking him into the vet when some concerning symptoms cropped up. We look forward to having Maria care for Leo again in the future.”

“Thank you so much for watching Fireheart while we were away. It’s such a relief leaving him with you because of the love and care you provide. The pictures you send are so wonderful and they show how much he loves you and you look after him and play with him like he is your own. Thank you again Sarah”
“Yilian was wonderful with our dogs. She provided drop-ins to primarily feed our fur babies; and she ensured their blankets were in their beds, tidied up the garage and yard, and played with them while she was at the house. She communicated well and promptly, sent us updates and pics. We will definitely book Yilian again!”
“We booked a sitter through Rover for the first time for a long time period and were a little nervous about leaving Missy alone, but Xiaoyu was absolutely wonderful. From the very beginning, she made sure Missy felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Xiaoyu followed all the instructions we discussed and truly went above and beyond to make sure Missy didn’t miss us. After just a few visits, it was clear that Missy looked forward to seeing her, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend Xiaoyu to anyone looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, and caring sitter—and a true friend—for their fur baby. 🐾💛”

Jordan was wonderful with my cats! He took great care of them while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. He was very communicative and kept me updated throughout. I think Chloe may have even made a new friend! I would definitely recommend Jordan and would happily have him care for my cats again!
Anne was great! She took great care of our cat Ciro by playing with him and making sure he had enough food and water, as well as a clean litter box. We really appreciated her communication and her sharing plenty of pictures of Ciro. Anne also took detailed notes during the meet and greet to make sure she had all the details to best care for our cat. Thank you Anne!
Highly recommended! Exceptionally professional and caring. Shiyin provided top-notch care for my cat. She was punctual, highly communicative, and followed all feeding and care instructions perfectly. My cat warmed up to her almost instantly. Look no further if you want peace of mind while you are away. 5 stars all the way! Thank you for your service.
Logan was an excellent cat sitter for our 2 young cats, dropping in to take care of them for a week+ trip. He is trustworthy and responsible; his genuine love for cats means he will really care for them and he was respectful of the house, keeping it neat and as-is. He went above and beyond for our cats, providing them with extra affection and playtime rather than just dropping in to scoop litter and check on food/water. We were also given lots of photos and notes about how they were doing, it was as stress-free as a trip away from pets could be!
Anna went above and beyond caring for all four of our babies, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She is warm, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to the animals in her care. What really stood out was her flexibility — when I reached out outside of our scheduled appointment times needing help with my cats, she didn’t hesitate and accommodated us without missing a beat. That kind of responsiveness and reliability is rare and means the world to a pet parent. Anna took the time to understand all of our specific care needs and handled everything with such grace and professionalism. We felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in her hands. Highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
As always, Dakota took fantastic care of our kitties while we were out of town. We’ve been happy clients since 2024 and honestly wouldn't trust anyone else. I especially love his prompt responses and the consistent report cards—the photos always put our minds at ease! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable 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. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
