“Kathy was awesome! She is so kind and you can easily tell she’s a pro at caring for animals. My cats really warmed up to her and I felt so comfortable knowing that she was there to take care of them while I was away. Would definitely recommend Kathy to anyone and will book again!”

“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 cats while I had to go out of town. She fed them, played with them, took pictures of them, and emptied their litter boxes. I was able to leave knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely call her again to watch them. And I recommend her to others. She was very caring.”

“Lucy was wonderful with our cat. This was the first time we used Rover and I was a bit anxious. She was great at helping me to navigate the app and keeping us updated while we were away. She was on-time, provided updates as well as pictures daily. It was so helpful to know our cat was loved and taken care of while we were away. We have another upcoming trip and will be looking to book with Lucy again.”
“Ellie is awesome! Both of my cats took to her right away. Her report cards were great and she showed up as promised. I would hire Ellie in a heartbeat the next time I need cat care. Thank you Ellie!”
About: I have 20 years of experience raising cats and 5 years of experiencing walking and sitting dogs. Most of the dogs I've sat were adults and seniors, but I recently adopted a high-energy shepherd puppy. He has taken to training well and completed basic with flying colors! I love hanging out with dogs and cats, and have great relationships with the animals I've met! My background is wildlife biology, and I dedicate a lot of time to studying both wild and domesticated animal behaviors and body language. I never force interactions when an animal displays signs of discomfort, and make sure any petting or play is fully on their terms. I am overall a soft-spoken and calm person, so I can get along with anxious animals quite well. I love taking dogs for walks and playing dogs like fetch, hide-and-seek, find-it, and using puzzle toys and other training games. I currently work a full-time job M-F and a part-time job Th - S, so my availability will be tight for the next couple of months. Weekday availability will be mostly afternoons, and weekend availability will be mornings and partial afternoons. Wishes of the owner and safety of the animal always comes first. I listen to instruction carefully and always follow up with questions as needed. Though I love cuddling and playing with pets, any interaction should be done on their terms, with their comfort and safety in mind. It is sad when an animal ignores you or avoids you, but I never force pets, play, or cuddles.
“I had initially booked my visit with a different person who ended up not answering me. This left me looking for someone else… I was kind of worried. I looked at different profiles and came across Claire’s. I loved her bio and the sweet pictures she had of her fur baby and other fur babies. Claire came over a week prior to us leaving on our 12 day vacation to pick up the keys and to meet my babies. She was SO SWEET & fell in love with my babies right away. I knew from our first encounter she’d be a great sitter. During our trip she sent us lovely “report cards” (my nickname for them) she’d send such great pictures of our babies and leave a lengthy report on them during her visit. This is our first time being away from our precious babies and it was SO SO SO SO HARD & we miss them more than words can explain, but I never once wondered or worried about their care. I had told Claire we were very easy going and that in reality she didn’t need to play with the cats or try to win them over. They tend to hide from people and be shy & they honestly entertain themselves… my biggest things were making sure their raw food was discarded/cleaned up properly & that their litter robots got topped off and emptied once full. Claire did this effortlessly! She also still took the time to win them over & to play with them. (She has more than 1 job and I didn’t want her to actually waste her time at my place) but this didn’t stop her. She was able to get all my babies comfortable around her, purring, playing & snuggling. My heart is full and so thankful to have found someone reliable who will ALWAYS be my go to for my kids. Thank you so much Claire. We truly appreciate you!”
“Perla did a great job looking after our 2 cats while we were away on vacation for 11 days. She took time to send us photos every day and took great care of keeping up on their food/water/litterbox. Our cats are normally very shy and took to her immediately, I will 100% use her services in the future 😊”
“Sammy took care of our two cats as if they were her own and it is clear that both of our cats enjoyed her company, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Sammy is extremely friendly, trustworthy, and it’s obvious she is a huge animal lover. During our meet and greet, Sammy sat down on the floor to be at our cat’s level and she connected with our 2 cats very quickly. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you SO much for taking such great care of our cats, Sammy!!”

Unfortunately, with my two cats living in a townhome rental, I won’t be doing services in my home, however, if I dog sit in your home I will make sure that your pet gets all the correct meals needed, on time medication‘s if needed, and plenty of play times and cuddles with walks throughout the day or as requested!

Rick and Wendy took excellent care of our kitty and made sure she was well fed, brushed daily and had plenty of play time. We appreciated receiving the daily updates and photos and it was nice knowing she was getting plenty of attention. If they are available we will definitely have them take care of her next time we are away.
Perla did a great job looking after our 2 cats while we were away on vacation for 11 days. She took time to send us photos every day and took great care of keeping up on their food/water/litterbox. Our cats are normally very shy and took to her immediately, I will 100% use her services in the future 😊
Olivia was great! It's our first time to use Rover, and we're glad we chose the right sitter. Our kitties loved her and one of them showed his belly which is his sign of approval! One of them vomited (which she cleaned up) and she came back that same night on her own initiative to check on them, which was very much appreciated.

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.

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 .
