“Mitchell did an amazing job taking care of my cats. He is extremely responsible, reliable, and genuinely caring. He followed all feeding instructions carefully, kept everything clean and organized, and made sure my cats were comfortable and well taken care of. He also provided timely updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My cats can be shy, but they warmed up to him quickly, which really shows his patience and love for animals！”
About: My god mother gave a pupy when I was born. I had been taken care of him for 15 years. My friends always ask me to take care of their dogs when out of town. Anytime during weekdays for dogwalking prior 2 days notice. Anytime for dog sitting prior 1 week notice. Thanks for your consideration. Looking forward to connect with you. I don't do dogs/cats sitting at my own home because Ｉ have 2 cats，don't wanna scare them out. But I do provide dogs/cats sitting in clients home if necessary. Thank you！
About: Experience with All Temperaments Daily Photo & Video Updates: You’ll always know your pet is safe and happy Genuine animal lover and careful n caring Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I usually do sittings when I’m not busy with work or have other things going on. I always make time out of my day to take my pets out for a walk morning or night they seem to enjoy it a lot At home, I care for my pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment that meets both their physical and emotional needs. I stick to consistent routines for feeding, walks, and playtime, because I know structure helps them feel secure.
“Maya was great with our cats! She’s been very active, engaging them in play sessions, giving special attention to each cat and their needs. She’s thorough with the food needs, always ensuring cats are eating well, had enough water and also attentive to any issues that might be bothering them. She kept the food area and the litter boxes super clean. Her post visit notes are very helpful and comprehensive. She’s also great at plant care. She took care of my 100+ plants very well. I’d 100% recommend her!!”
“She was so amazing! She was terrific and my cat really liked her. She could not have done any better! She kept in touch and sent lots of pictures. Made us feel very comfortable!”
“Sandra was absolutely wonderful with my cat Jesse. She gave us regular updates and went above and beyond to accommodate our shy girl. Highly recommend Sandra to any pet parents!!”
“Emma made my cat Jack feel welcome and at home! She sent me pictures regularly of him throughout his stay. I truly felt that Jack was well cared for and given lots of attention while I was gone. I’m definitely booking with her again!”
“We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care our cat, Milo, has received from Yanhong. She has been attentive, compassionate, and professional throughout her time looking after him. Not only does she ensure Milo’s physical needs are met—feeding, refreshing his water, grooming, and playing with him—but she also pays close attention to his mental well-being, keeping him comfortable and happy. What we especially appreciate is how regularly she updates us on Milo’s condition, sharing detailed notes and photos that give us peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about Milo and treats him like her own pet. We highly recommend Yanhong to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and responsible cat sitter.”
“Yongxin was a great cat sitter! I went away on a two week trip overseas, and she took excellent care of my two cats. She made sure the cats were fed, watered, and cleaned up after, and my cats clearly enjoyed her company. I really appreciated Yongxin’s daily photo updates showing how the cats were doing on her visits. The photos helped put my mind at ease while I was away from my cats.”
About: As the owner of four cats, I have daily hands-on experience providing consistent, attentive care to animals. Caring for multiple pets has taught me to be patient, reliable, and attentive to each animal's unique needs and personality. While my personal experience has been with cats, I'm comfortable caring for dogs by following their established routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and providing plenty of love and attention. I'll treat your dog with the same care and dedication I give my own pets! I'm currently a graduate student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I keep my availability up to date and do my best to accommodate your pet's routine, whether that's morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits. I believe consistency is important, so I'll always communicate clearly and provide dependable, attentive care while you're away. Your pet's comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. Since I'm entering their space, I believe it's important to let each pet take the lead. I take the time to build trust at their own pace and never force interactions or affection. Every pet has a unique personality, and I respect their individual needs and boundaries. I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), or simply providing companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away by maintaining the consistency they're used to. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care. That's why I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're happy, safe, and receiving the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own pets.
“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!”
“Very trustworthy and would definitely recommend Jen. She paid a couple of drop in visits to look after our cat Bella and we could not be happier with the service Jen provided. Not only did she pay attention to all the details we left her but she also gave excellent recaps after each visit. It's clear she's a genuine animal lover and our cat (who is usually shy) was comfortable approaching her.”
About: Hi! My name is Fiona, and I provide loving family-style dog boarding and daycare in our home. Our home is a spacious 3,800 sq ft house with a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to explore, relax, and play safely throughout the day. Dogs staying with us are treated like part of the family and are welcome on the couch, beds, and furniture if that’s what they are used to at home. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, and our whole family loves having dogs around. We also have two children who grew up around dogs and are very comfortable interacting with them. They understand how to respect dogs’ space and behavior and enjoy playing with them. During their stay, I send daily updates with photos and videos so you can see how your dog is doing and feel connected while you’re away. Because I focus on providing a calm and comfortable home environment, I usually host only a small number of dogs at a time to make sure every dog receives plenty of care and attention. Your dog will never be lonely in our home. My husband works from home and I also have a very flexible schedule, so there is almost always someone around. Dogs staying with us receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Because someone is usually home, we are able to closely supervise the dogs and make sure they feel comfortable and relaxed. I can also administer oral medications if needed. Safety is always our top priority. Our backyard is fully fenced and secure, allowing dogs to safely explore and play under supervision. We carefully introduce dogs to each other and always monitor interactions to ensure everyone feels comfortable. We also follow each dog’s feeding routine and any special care instructions provided by the owner. If needed, I can also administer oral medications.
“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. 🐾💛”

I can’t recommend Mitchell highly enough. From the first meet and greet, it was clear he genuinely loves animals, and my cat warmed up to him immediately, which almost never happens. He sent daily photos and updates that put my mind completely at ease while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a spotless litter area. Mitchell is reliable, communicative, and trustworthy in my home. Five stars, and he'll be my first call every time I travel.
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!
Shiyin was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of our babies and cleaned up after them in ways that were above and beyond. She really captured both of our cats personalities both in her reports as well as in her photos. We will definitely book again with her in the future!
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!

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.
