“As usual, Jennifer was wonderful. She handles feeding and medicating our cats very well - we learn by her methods to get them to eat their meds and food. Our plants also appreciate her attention. We are quite thankful for her caring - as are our cats!”
“An amazing experience, Sophie was very attentive and helpful. It’s a great sign when you start to look forward to the check-in updates even while on vacation. I definitely recommend and will be having Sophie take care of Pine in the future!”
“Thank you Emily for the visit on such short notice. I really appreciate it!! Thanks for the nice pics; always makes me feel so much better when I leave him. He’ll see you again in April! 😻”
“Rachel was very flexible and punctual with my cats’ unusual schedule. She took good care of both of them, providing playtime for my energetic kitty and calm, quiet, care for my older cat. She made it easy for me to enjoy my time away!”
“Sari is a fantastic sitter for my somewhat shy and finicky older cat. She follows all the instructions I leave as well as providing a full accounting of each of her drop in visits. When I need a sitter for when I’m going to be out of town, I always check to see if she’ll be available first.”
“Stephanie came through when my sitter had to cancel last-minute. She was a life-saver!!! She was able to fit in time to meet the cats before I left, and provided excellent care. Beyond grateful!”
About: I was born and raised to love dogs. I grew up in a household that bred Rottweilers and I could not be anymore grateful for the lessons of love and care for animals it instilled in me. I began caring for other's pets when I was in high school. Over a decade later I have had experience in short and long-term overnight care/house sitting, day-visits, walks, and some medication administration for pets of all ages and sizes. I have a special spot in my heart for senior pets and giving them the extra love and care they deserve. I know that every home and pet has unique needs and ways to be taken care of. I believe with clear communication I am able to approach each new pet care situation with confidence that we can both feel when you leave your loved ones in my care! I am currently just working part time and have lots of flexibility/weekend availability. I love to take early morning walks with dogs, especially given that it's summer I keep the heat in mind and have availability during the cooler hours. I have reliable transportation to come to your home! I am a very organized and clean person so if I am welcomed into your home I assure it will be treated with respect and care. For walks I believe I am very observant and aware of my surroundings, ensuring safety for both myself and your pet(s).
About: I have worked with dogs for about 6 years now and love dog sitting for families. I am a reliable sitter and will take the extra time to make sure your dogs are comfortable and safe. I have experience with administering medication and help calm the animals during loud noises(fireworks) and thunderstorms. I absolutely love dogs and would love to help your furry friends be comfortable while you’re away! I have pretty open availability during the summer and am available for multiple night dog sitting sessions. I would love to spend some of my free time with your furry babies! While dog sitting, I like to spend time outside with the animals and let them exercise. I love to snuggle up with them and take them on walks. I am also able to aid in lifting senior dogs onto couches and beds. weight limit for lifting: 115 lbs.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. We have always had at least one dog in the house if not more. In the past 6 years I have helped my parents to puppy train twice. I love dogs unconditionally, but I am not afraid to show a little tough love when needed. I’m currently going back to school and attend a lot of local sporting events but I still make it a priority to take my dog for a walk daily. Whether we fit in a walk before I leave in the morning or in-between class and a game, I know how much she loves her walks. I also make sure to give her ample play time when I am home. I make sure that whether the pet is in a fenced in yard or not I am always keeping an eye on them when outside. I always respect the clients wishes regarding their animal being on furniture, in what rooms, and such on.
“Anica was great to work with. Very knowledgeable and took great care of our puppy. She even went above and beyond to work on training skills and sent some great photos for us to have!! Thank you Anica - plan to rebook!”
About: I have a large home with a large back yard, great neighbors with great pets of their own to play with. We recently lost our dog so we have some extra space in our hearts and home. I am currently working from home and would love some company while doing so. Come join me ***Please Note: All care will be given by me only. Other members of the house may play only I currently only have cats that will completely ignore any dogs coming in. I would take directions from you on how your fur baby likes to be cared for. As a 60 year old I have come to realize I am not equipped to board foster or shelter dogs.
“Wonderful care of our kitten Quincy as he faced his first time home alone. Patient so he got to trust her, and then playful and engaging with him, we are very grateful. Although the changing of food, water, and litter is much appreciated, it is the interactions that helped him be more comfortable without his family home.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 7 years old. I always find the animal in the room and have gained a lot of knowledge over the years!! I have a Yorkie and a Golden Retriever myself. I trained my golden retriever myself as well. I’m currently a senior in college with a light schedule. I have a lot of gaps during my days. I am completely free on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (most often). I have enough knowledge to know what a pet needs in any moment. I will be able to keep an eye on them at all times. I am able to adjust to anything that a specific owner is more comfortable with.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - East Rochester
This was our first time using Rover, so I was a little hesitant about leaving our animal house in someone else’s hands. But after meeting her, I immediately felt much more at ease. She took such great care of our dogs and cats (and fish!), checked in consistently, and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She is so sweet, and we would absolutely have her back again!
Linda did a great job caring for my cat who requires two visits daily because she’s on medication. I appreciated the timeliness of her visits and the clear communication. Everything was tidy and in great condition when we got home. I plan to use Linda’s services the next time we’re in need of a cat sitter!
I only expected someone to stop in briefly to feed our two cats for a few days, but Rylee really did make herself their bff ! She was thoughtful with their feeding as one gets sick if he overeats and the other was on a new diet. She spent lots of time giving them attention and cuddles, and engaging them in play. She was respectful of our home and is an excellent and responsive communicator. From now on I can rest easy knowing who I’m going to contact for a friendsitter for Jet and Marvin—Rylee all the way. Thanks Rylee!

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.

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 .
