“Ashley was available very last minute to watch our two cats! She sent daily updates and even took the time to play with our very high energy cat everyday. Thank you so much!”
“Selena did such a good job! It was so nice getting updates about things and getting pictures of the cats! I could actually relax on our trip knowing our animals were in good hands! Definitely will be using for future trips!”
“Absolutely amazing sitter! Mikayla was so responsive, sent tons of pics and updates and took such wonderful care of our boys. Highly recommend booking with her!!”
“Tim did a great job caring for our fur babies. He kept us informed on how they were doing and followed our care instructions perfectly. So glad to have found someone to care for them when we are gone.”
“Emily was excellent with my two kitties. They are very anxious and love attention and she was the perfect sitter while I was gone. I was updated daily with pictures. Emily is very professional and I felt very comfortable with her taking care of my kitties while I was away. I will definitely request her services the next time I go out of town!”
About: Hi! I’m a dog mom to two pups of my own and recently used Rover for the first time while traveling. I was so impressed by the care and peace of mind it gave me that I decided I’d love to offer that same experience to others. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone kind, dependable, and attentive. I provide a calm, cozy environment and will care for your pets with patience, love, and plenty of updates while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to be with your pets morning, noon and night. Some days I will be working 4 hour shifts, but otherwise I will be around. I will come to your house and follow your lead on schedules and needs of your pets. I’m happy to give meds or follow special instructions.
About: I enjoy keeping cats and dogs well and at ease while their owners are away. I’ve had many cats and a couple of dogs. I know leash commands and I like walking. I’ll keep you updated about your pets. Other than an 8-day trip in mid July, I’m available for pet care. I can work with your schedule and I’m eager to meet new clients I'm careful to protect your security while you are away. Your privacy is very important. I will visit your pets to keep them healthy and put them at ease while you are away.
“We connected with Dorian for the first time recently, and are delighted to report that everything worked out well. Dorian stayed at our house for a week while taking care of our 2 kitties. He met both cats prior to our trip, and they (the cats) approved. All indications are that he was able to make friends with them despite the fact that they have been leary of strangers. They enjoy a catdoor, which they use extensively, and he was here for them even when they weren't around. Communiation with Dorian was strong and the house was left in very good condition Although our cats were very happy to have us back, they didn't appear to be stressed, as opposed to their reaction to some other sitters we have had. We will definitely contact Dorian again when the occasion arises. Hopefully he'll still be available.”
“Shannon always takes great care of our kitties! She is very attentive to their needs and making sure they feel extra love when we are gone. Thank you Shannon!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have two corgis of my own, Chimi and Churro, so caring for pups is just part of my everyday life. They’re my little adventure buddies, and we love being outside together, going on walks, exploring trails, and soaking up fresh air. Because I’m used to handling my own energetic dogs daily, I’m comfortable with all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a long walk to burn energy, playtime, or slower, gentle care, I’m happy to match their pace and routine. My goal is lots of love, exercise, and a very happy dog. Im currently working at a dental office Monday-Thursday 9am-5:30pm. So I’m available most weekdays if you need a quick walk or drop-ins, if not I'm available Friday-Sunday with whatever pet needs you may have! In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and treat your space like my own. I make sure pets feel calm and comfortable by keeping their environment familiar and stress-free. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. On walks, dogs are always leashed and closely supervised. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions to keep things consistent and stress-free.
“Kayle was wonderful with Elliot! We booked her for three hour-long drop-in visits while we were away for a long train trip to Seward and back, and she was reliable, attentive, and clearly spent the time making sure Elliot had a great day too. She took him on nice long walks, played with him, took care of his meals and routine, and sent fantastic Rover cards with lots of photos and walk updates. We had limited cell service for much of the day, so being able to check in and see exactly what Elliot had been up to was incredibly reassuring. He looked happy and comfortable with her, and we came home to a very content dog. We would absolutely trust Kayle with Elliot again and will happily book her in the future.”
“Always thankful to have Amanda watch our cats! Love the attention she pays to them and our house and all the pictures and descriptions she shares from her visits! Our favorite pet sitter!”
“Easy to contact and arrange meet up a few days before leaving; not to recommend last minute booking. Maurina took notes of verbal instructions and asked important questions. She followed through with just as requested. Maurina understands cat needs. She used good judgement, and was a pleasure to meet.”
About: I volunteer at the local shelter (AARF) every weekend and I grew up with German Shepherds! Animals are my absolute favorite and im pretty versatile. I’m active duty but im free anytime after work (5pm) and im always free on the weekends! Im pretty good at fitting people/work into my schedule. I live in the barracks so primarily I would care for pets at the clients house, but I would give updates on there pets and call them if they needed/wanted to check on their friend!
About: As a longtime dog owner with three dogs of my own, I have hands-on experience caring for different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I also care for a diabetic senior dog, so I understand how important consistency, patience, close observation, and dependable care are—especially for older pets or those with additional needs. Since retiring from the Air Force, I have a flexible, open schedule that allows me to make pet care a regular part of my day. I’m available throughout the morning, afternoon, and evening for walks and drop-in visits, including many weekends. Because I’m not trying to squeeze visits around a full-time job, I can give your pet my full attention, arrive reliably, and maintain a consistent routine. I also have flexibility for recurring visits and reasonable last-minute requests. For walks and drop-in visits, I will carefully follow your pet’s normal routine and all instructions you provide. I’ll confirm that doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I will never allow a dog off-leash unless we are in a safely enclosed area and you have specifically approved it. During drop-ins, I can provide fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and approved medications according to your instructions.

I highly recommend Jayda. She’s very professional and reliable. She’s a good communicator and able to follow instructions. Before actually having her come we did a get acquainted visit so when she did come she was familiar with the animals and they were familiar with her. I will definitely call on her again!
Cassidy was amazing! Great with communicating and took amazing care of my pets and my house while I was out of town. I will definitely use her again in the future if she is available and I highly recommend her to others. Hands down the best pet sitter I’ve had so far.

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 .

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 .
