“Charlotte was absolutely wonderful, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! I was quite anxious about leaving our two cats for a week, but Charlotte made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. She was punctual, highly communicative, and sent us plenty of photos during each visit—which truly put this cat mom’s mind at ease. Not only was Charlotte respectful of our home, but she also went above and beyond by engaging our cats, encouraging them to play and exercise during her visits. It's evident that Charlotte genuinely knows and loves cats, and I really appreciated the care and attention she gave mine. I will definitely be booking Charlotte again, and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of a fantastic pet sitter!”
“Chris was a lifesaver! I needed a cat sitter last minute and he promptly responded, went to see my cat, fed her, played with her, and sent me pictures. Thank you Chris!”
“We had such a great experience with Andrea! She was reliable, communicative, and super thoughtful and attentive with our cat Milo—who can be picky! We loved getting detailed updates and photos. Milo was clearly well cared for and happy. Would definitely book again!”
“Melissa sought to go beyond in caring for my cat. She even returned one day to check on his food and water when I was worried it might be low. She played with him and his toys and sent me pictures that he was doing well. I will be asking for her help again!”
“Mary Rose did a great job feeding and watering my cat, Lily! She administered meds each day as well. She communicated effectively and sent pictures during each visit. In addition, she washed the dirty plates from the prior visits and left everything neat and clean. I would highly recommend Mary Rose, and I’ll book with her again!”
“This was my first time using Rover and the first time letting someone else watch my animals. I can say with full confidence that Kate is the best pet sitter anyone could ask for. She is responsive, respectful and amazing in all aspects. My cats took a personal liking to her, and for one of my cats that is very difficult in trusting new people. Sure enough day 1 he was asking to be pet by her. If you want to go away or need to find someone to trust your pets with, Kate is the person to use!”
“Olivia did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our two cats. One of our cats is older with a few health issues and he gets pills twice a day in addition to a specific feeding schedule. Olivia was so excellent at keeping our kitty on his schedule and also keeping us informed along the way. Our house was in perfect condition when we got home and our kitties were happy & healthy! I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone!”
“I have two cats, one who is elderly and in medicine daily and a new kitten. My old lady tends to be shy, but warmed up to Kaprice quickly and took her meds, she was so responsive anytime I texted her and sent me pictures of my babies. I highly recommend her, and look forward to working with her again!”
“I had a great experience with Anna! She took great care for my two kitties and showed them lots of love. I really appreciate that she was able take care of them despite my last minute request.”
“We can’t thank Sarah enough for her sweet and gentle way with our kitties. Her notes are so beautiful and put us at ease while we’re away. We’re so grateful for her and her little helper!”

Sarah is the most loving and attentive caretaker for your fur babies. She meticulously monitored how our 19 year old Jiggs was eating and drinking while making sure our three year old Rosie was given what he also needed. Her daughter is the sweetest assistant, doling out treats and pets. You will rest easy when Sarah looks after your precious ones!
Megan was great! We needed someone to check in on our cat Ruby for a week while we were out of the country. Megan took awesome photos and left detailed updates about not just our kitty but also the state of the home in general (ie no random leaking, etc). She was super communicative and responsive. We would definitely book with Megan again!!
Stephanie was a fantastic sitter -- this is our second time booking her and we are so pleased we have found someone responsible and caring to watch our kitty while we were away. Big plus that Stephanie was able to drop in during the July 4th holiday. Our kitty needs meds and she followed the instructions we left with no problems at all. Our kitty was happy to see her -- she was friendly, polite, and just an all around great sitter. Highly recommend!
We had such a great experience with Andrea! She was reliable, communicative, and super thoughtful and attentive with our cat Milo—who can be picky! We loved getting detailed updates and photos. Milo was clearly well cared for and happy. Would definitely book again!
Jaclyn did an amazing job. We’ve had a few different sitters though Rover and it is no comparison. In the past we’ve had some lethargic sitters who did the bare minimum. Jackie went above and beyond and cared for our cats like her own. Her attention to detail was unmatched, we even meant beforehand to go over the cats routines and favorite play time toys. In an app mostly geared for dogs, it can be difficult to get someone who understands cats and can provide this level of care. This is the one you’re looking for.
Incredible work. Watched our two groups of chickens - babies inside, adults outside, and couldn't have done a better job. Helped with a few last minute other things around the house (checked basement for flooding, brought in packages). Highly responsible, always on time, sent check-in notifications when arriving and leaving, went above and beyond with baby chickens. Will hire again, highly recommend.
