“Very communicative and left detailed reports of how my cat was doing. She included photos in her reports, too, which was so fun to see while away. Absolutely recommend her for taking care of your fur baby!”

“I really appreciate Heidi for watching Hasna, and for being so understanding when I had to return a day early!! She did a great job feeding, cleaning her litter, and keeping her entertained while I was away on work travel”

“Amber/Ash was fantastic with my cats. She connected with them easily, kept their schedule, and was respectful and kind with all of us. They were clearly content and yet happy to see me when I returned. She was flexible when I decided to return a day earlier than planned and was responsive on the app when texting her. I'd have her back anytime!”

“Mari is a great cat sitter! It’s obvious how much she loves animals. Very reliable and caring. I was super grateful for her flexible schedule and communication.”

About: Toda mi vida tuvimos perros en mi casa, siempre disfruté pasearlos y cuidarlos, hace 4 años adopte mis propias gatitas, eso me hizo enamorarme y querer conocer a todos los gatitos del mundo Para mi sería un honor cuidar y conocer mascotas nuevas, tengo mucho amor y cariño que ofrecerles, puedo dedicarles todo el tiempo que necesiten para que siempre estén felices Puedo ir directamente a la casa de la mascota para que no sufra ningún estrés trasladándolo a otro lugar, tengo la facilidad de poder ir a cada lugar y brindarle el cuidado y paseo que merece cada una
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my sorta high-needs senior cat. Sammie was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring from start to finish. She checked in every day with photos and updates, and it was clear how much affection she gave my cat — my kitty absolutely adored her and even settled into her usual “workday spot” on the desk right beside her. I came home to a spotless house, a happy and relaxed cat, and everything exactly as I left it. Sammie has a kind heart, great instincts, and treats your home and pets with real respect. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat.”

About: I worked at a boarding business for about a year and a half for dogs and cats. I worked with all different sizes and breeds, and ages of dogs and cats. My job tittle including playing and cuddling with the animals, feeding the animals, cleaning where they stayed, and giving medicine to the animals that required it. I have a little more than basic knowledge of dogs and cats health and always try to stay up to date with that. I dog sit and cat sit for friends and families regularly aswell. I have always grown up around animals and if you were to ask anyone who knows me they will say I have always wanted to work with animals since I knew what a job was. I am currently a college student and am majoring in wildlife conservation, while that's not specifically a major for cats and animals I still have and will learn a lot about those species as well!! I currently don't have a job so my schedule is really open. I work out everyday usually in the mornings to early afternoons. But I have a very flexible schedule! I have a fenced backyard just under 2acres of land. So it is very spacious for bigger dogs to run around in! I am able to walk dogs for however long.
“Isabella did a great job checking in on our cat. She was timely and always provided photos. She has great common sense and was quick to address an unforeseen situation after getting locked out of the house.”


About: I’ve had furry friends my entire life, and have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was 13. Pet sitting is not just a hobby for me but passion that started my own childhood home. Having dogs in my own home, and thinking how I’d want a sitter to treat my doggie, I will be sending lots of photos, having clear communication with owner, and always be available to call if the owner needs to contact me on a doggie matter. I can take care of furry friends nearly everyday out of the week, although I am currently in collage and my schedule is Mondays and Tuesdays from 8:15 to 2:45. I do not have any pets at my house, so if your furry friend does not do well with other dogs it’s a perfect fit. If a dog is quite energetic and social we will go on lots of walkies to tire them out so there not missing out!
About: I've had dogs growing up and have had cats as an adult. I am attentive and caring and knowledgeable about animal care for cats and dogs. I am self-employed and work from home. I wake up early and like to walk in the morning when it's cool outside. I prefer to walk with a dog in the morning. I have a very large fenced yard with very few weeds. I clean up animal waste regularly and keep the yard free of debris and dangerous items.
About: Responsible grad student with tons of pet care experience! I'm a bunny owner with lots of experience in unusual and sensitive pets, including bunnies, rats, guinea pigs, reptiles, and birds. I've fostered a bunny with E. cuniculi and worked with medical fosters, so I'm good at being sanitary and keeping other pets safe when one is sick! I have also done lots of dogsitting and catsitting for all ages. I'm a runner and would love to run with your dog! I'm good with high-energy leash walkers, and have watched many small puppies, hospice and elderly cats, and energetic dogs. Can't wait to meet your pets! I'm a grad student with a pretty flexible schedule. Book me whenever! Mornings and evenings are especially great, but I can house sit and run/walk dogs any time of day. My bunny at home gets frequent attention and care. I know how hard it is to leave my pet while I'm travelling and be worried about how he's doing. I'll send tons of photos and updates so you know your pet is happy and healthy! I pay lots of attention to the details and will make sure your pet has everything it needs, and keep things clean and happy in their environment!
About: I’ve been housesitting and petsitting family and friend’s animals for about 10 years now and would love to assist in making sure your pets are well taken care of while you’re gone :) I’m currently working part time throughout the week, therefore my schedule is open and available 7 days per week to assist in any way I can. I have experience working with pets that are crated, not crated, puppies, adults, require a fenced in backyard, walk on a leash, etc. in order to be prepared for any furry friend I may run into :)

“Amelia did an amazing job, my dog took to her immediately. She was very punctual, followed directions for his food and medication’s, closed all gates and doors, and even kept a lookout for unknown people at my home. I would definitely book with Amelia again!”

About: I have a chocolate lab back home that I miss dearly, but while I'm in college I'd love to spend my free time loving and caring for your babies! I’ve been a pet person as long as I can remember. From the day I met my kitten Percy at age nine to the moment I brought home my puppy Lois, animals have been the center of my world. My passion is to now provide your pets with the same level of devotion I give my own. I've spent a great amount of time training my pets and can contribute to maintaining your training process as well. I pride myself on adaptability with each pet and their owners, catering to your pet's age and energy levels. This can vary from long walks with some running, to gentle strolls and a quiet environment. I have experience with my dog being in heat as well as older dogs that need extra care. I can also provide any medications needed for mouth, ears, or paws with treats and calmly talking to the baby. Lastly, I have experience with reactive dogs, this includes hyper awareness of our surroundings on walks and creating distance for comfort, also always carrying treats with me for positive reinforcement and a reward after walks. While I don't have a car, I'm conveniently located near a reliable shuttle to the UofA campus where I spend most of my time for classes! For non-boarding services, I ONLY accept bookings within walking distance of my home or near the UofA area. My light daily routine—usually just a class or work shift—gives me plenty of flexibility to give your pet constant attention, regular check-ins, and lots of quality cuddle time so they feel right at home with me. I live in a gated community with a large amount of pets living on the property, there's a community yard area that wraps around the buildings with many spots for dogs to do their business. I'll also be walking them around the gated neighborhood if they need longer walks. I also have a back porch leading to the yard area where I can sit with your pet to relax and spend time outside. Your pet will always be supervised if outside since we have no fence.

This was our second time using Colby, and can't say enough how great she is. Our cats love her and she takes great care of them. She understands the different energy levels of our cats and makes sure that they both get the attention they need. Colby is amazing in het communication and sends a lot of information in her updates, which we love. Definitely recommend her to use as your sitter.

Lauren did a very nice job checking in on our two senior cats during our international vacation. She followed guidance very thoughtfully, sent sweet pictures of the cats, and was respectful of our home space. She was willing and able to pivot when our travel schedule changed a bit and we were so grateful for her genuine care for our cats in our absence.

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.
