“Jenny was great & we will absolutely be using her again. She took such great care of our cat Hopper while we were gone (she even put on cat TV for him because he would cry when she left). She was communicative and thorough giving us great recaps and photos for every visit! She went above and beyond!”
“Karen was AMAZING! I booked her over our normal sitter because I saw she dealt with exotics. I have 5 lizards and 7 cats - our pet situation is complicated! But she was all smiles, communication, and took time to enrich the lives of not only our cats, but also our lizards. That kind of joy and respect of animals is rare and the missdolittle title really is perfect! 10/10 - I highly recommend her and her services!”
“I was nervous leaving my cat alone for an extended period of time but Selina took excellent care of my girl and helped me out with some things around the apartment as well. She is a pet smart person who knows animals. 10/10 would rebook.”

“Hailey came to our rescue with only one week notice during the holiday season! She texted photos and details of her visits every day and followed my many notes.

About: My pet care experience began in 2022 when I helped care for and raise my grandmother’s domestic shorthair cat, whom I still treat like my own. Before 2022, I grew up caring for family dogs, gaining experience with handling, grooming, and caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. Since 2023, I have volunteered at the ASPCA, where I’ve learned from animal care professionals about providing animals with patience, compassion, attention, and consistent routines. I now try to bring these experiences to pet sitting, intending to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and like family while in my care. Hi, and welcome! I’m Ariana, and I’m a part-time dog handler at a doggy daycare, but decided to start pet sitting in 2024 to expand my skills and experiences to help more fur babies thrive! I’m available Monday–Friday with weekends off, giving me a flexible schedule for pet care. My job is also aware that I do pet sitting, so I can always let them know if I need to make any arrangements with my shifts to match your pet’s routine. If anything, feel free to review my calendar for more details on my availability. ¡También hablo algo de español! I live in a small apartment, but I will ensure it’s spacious, clean, and pet-friendly, ready for your pet’s arrival so they can be comfortable, with enough space to play, run, and sleep anywhere they like. I also live with family, including my two younger siblings, aka my two little active helpers, who make sure to be gentle, patient, attentive, and willing to always give me a hand with your pet so they’re never alone or bored.

About: I've had dogs for 15+ years, and cats for 10+ years! My dog passed away recently, but she was a 14 year old chihuahua (although she believed herself a great dane!). My dad has an adorable and energetic pug who I've cared for many times before. I've taken care of kittens and elderly cats, and two of my family cats had to go through surgeries, so I've also administered medicines, applied ointments, etc. I work fully remotely, so I am quite flexible with my schedule.

Chi Leuk did a fantastic job dropping in to take care of Coconut! He was extremely patient, careful, and attentive throughout the entire visit. He followed all instructions provided and made sure Coconut was well-fed and comfortable. You can tell he truly cares about the animals in his care. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and considerate sitter!"
Stephanie took care of my former kitty 3some. After 2 years without any pets I thought of Stephanie again for my 2 18 month old litter mate. She takes care information seriously and has her kitty charges quickly warming up to her. I already have one more assignment for her.
Rachel is fantastic! She took great care of our cat Buddy while we were away for two weeks. Buddy is on a couple of medications, so we were concerned about having a sitter watch over him. Rachel looked like was the perfect person for the job and she was simply awesome. She over-delivered and went above and beyond our expectations. She sent us detailed notes and lots of pictures every time she visited Buddy. Whe consulted with us when needed and made great suggestions to make him more comfortable. We couldn’t be any happier and we will definitely keep booking her in the future.
Ayanna saved the day for us! We were halfway through a 2 week trip across the world when our original sitter became injured and was unable to continue looking after our cat. We had a crazy time difference and scrambled when we woke up to the messages from the original sitter, realizing our cat hadn’t been visited that day. I found Ayanna and she immediately accepted our extremely panicked last minute request. Within an hour or two, she grabbed the keys from the original sitter and went over to visit and feed our cat. She was a LIFESAVER and we felt so relieved. For the next week we got daily updates, pics, videos, and she kept the space tidy. I would highly recommend Ayanna to look after your pets!!!
It was a pleasure to have Joyce as our catsitter. She won our kitties’ affection and kept us up to date on their happenings. Her regular videos sent to us were a joy and helped me enjoy my time away knowing my pets were alright. Would love to have her take care of our cats again.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
