“Samantha was great! Her communication was excellent and she took lots of cute pictures of my boy enjoying his time with her! I will be contacting her again for any future cat sitting needs!”
“Emily was absolutely incredible! She was so attentive to my kitty and gave me super consistent details on her daily behaviors. It’s evident that she’s been a pet owner her whole life, she’s an absolute natural. I can’t wait to keep using Emily in the future to watch my girl.”
“Stephanie was beyond amazing -- every day she was on-time or early, spent tons of time loving my kitties, and went out of her way to clean even when not asked to so that when we came home from a long trip, it wouldn't be stressful. Will be rebooking with her asap, she made traveling so easy for us.”
“Madison was spectacular with my kitties! Madison provided daily summaries of their visit, as well as daily photos of the kitties. I even had some unexpected packages come in, and Madison brought them inside for me. Definitely recommend Madison for your pet sitting needs!”
“Qianna is awesome when it comes to caring for the pets. I left my 3 cats under her care and I didn't believe my eyes when I came back. My cats were healthy , I could tell they added weight and the environment was well maintained. She went an extra mile to buy food for my cats since she could not reach me by phone. I recommend her over for excellent work. She is passionate about her job, very loving and she knows her job. Thanks Qianna for excellent work 👏”
“George was fabulous with our kitties! Super communicative, took good care of them, and everything was tidy when we got back. We’ll definitely book again for our next trip!”
“Kendall helped us out on short notice today when our regular dog sitters weren’t available,and gave updates on our dogs after each visit. She was prompt and we are thankful for her help!”
“Stephanie was my in-house cat sitter for a month. I was super impressed with her thoughtfulness, thorough communication and great attitude. My cat can be moody, but she managed him for the month and gave me regular updates. And she left my house in spotless condition with fresh linens, which was greatly appreciated after a long trip home. She's simply a great sitter.”
“Rachel is wonderful taking care about our cats, she is great with them and also leaving the cat litter box area clean. Desmond and Bolica are super happy to get she as cat sitter, we have repeated with her and we continue to do it.”
About: I work from home on Fridays and Saturday and Sundays are made to hang out extra long with pets. Monday-Thursday I am in an office with the ability to come home during lunch. I have always loved having dogs of my own, but right now I do not have one. You and your dogs will be happy to know that I love long walks and snuggles on the couch. I also understand if there are certain rules/behavior expectations set by you the owner, that I will follow them implicitly since consistency is needed to have a well-behaved dog. I will treat your furry friend as if he or she were my own. I am available most days and am flexible to help accommodate your schedule. The experience I have in pet care has come from being a previous pet owner, but what comes with that is a true understanding how precious your dog is and that you are trusting me with that huge responsibility. I work from home on Fridays and am home on the weekend, and Monday-Thursday I work in an office close enough that I can stop in for lunch for a quick game of fetch in the yard. I have a fenced in yard and I also have space in my home if your dog requires to be crated. I also live close to a park for extra long walks if needed.
About: I started off by helping my mom when she did boarding at her house, then I worked my way to doing it on my own. I've had pets my whole life and I do animal care constantly at my school. I also have been a volunteer at the Toledo Humane Society since 2023! I've had experience with all kinds of animals, from hermit crabs to english mastiffs! I'm always willing to learn new things and get to know each animal individually. I work part time and go to school, so I might be too busy for pets that need a lot of attention or a strict schedule. I want what's best for your pet, so I will be very open with you about my schedule to make sure it works with your expectations! I make sure to send pictures of your pets while you're away! I absolutely love affectionate animals no matter the size, but I will also respect your pet's space if they're not so cuddly. I always ask questions when I have them, so you don't have to worry about me overfeeding or giving them the wrong treat!
“Gemma was incredibly friendly, dependable, and excellent at keeping in touch with me. Each visit she took tons of pictures, and it was easy to see that my kitty was completely at ease and well taken care of. I would not hesitate to book her again, and I'm sure my kitty agrees with me!”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, farm animals, and horses. I have 10+ years of horse experience training OTTB’s as well as 2+ years of reptile husbandry training working in BGSU’s herpetology lab. I have experience caring for special needs pets and have worked as a vet assistant which includes administering medication, monitoring patients, and responding quickly in emergency situations! As a student at BGSU, I live in an apartment and do not have pets currently. However, at home I have 2 dogs (one of which is special needs) as well as a cat and horses. I have always grown up treating pets as a part of the family. They have always come along on vacations when possible, been involved in family events, and given the absolute best care. I fully intend to carry this viewpoint into my client’s homes as well.
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs and cats! I volunteer at a local shelter and have been around the shy, sick, and old of both dogs and cats. Im very brave and confident when handling them and will not fail in caring for even the unfriendliest of animals. One of my cats at home has special needs pertaining to hydration, so, your pets with specific medical care will be taken care of 100% adequately! As I understand the fear in being a parent to a sick furbaby. I’m currently an unemployed student, so, while I am home for the summer, I have infinite time to play with your fluffy loved ones :). All of my cats are indoor only, I have never and will never hit my pets, and my dogs were always entertained and well fed. I think providing your animals with love, attention, nutrition, and safety are the most important things going on in my home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a 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 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.
