“Mariela was amazing! She dropped by to take care of our dog Kobe and did a fantastic job. She was reliable, caring, and clearly great with dogs and Kobe absolutely loved her. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter. 🐾”
“Sarah is the very best!!!!!! We loved having her watch our cats and will definitely be booking with her again. She has great cat energy and our two boys love her. We have a litter robot and automatic pet feeder, so we really just wanted someone to check in every couple of days while we were out of the country with no cell service for over a week on our honeymoon. Sarah noticed that one of our cats messed with the feeder machine and it looked like it wasn't dispensing food the right way. Sarah went out of her way to do extra visits to make sure that the cats had food. 10/10, she also helped water my patio garden plants while we were away”

“Brianna took care of my cats while my fiancée and I were out of town. It’s a bit difficult to find sitters that can administer oral medicine to cats, and Brianna was able to meet the task, give love to my 2 cats and make sure their area was well kept. She responds quickly to texts as well. If you need a cat sitter, I would recommend her to any client!”

“Evelyn is a god send! She was FABULOUS with our pets. We have a sassy cat and two buns who absolutely loved her! She was prompt on timing and followed all of the directions we had.

To put it simply Warda is amazing! She comes prepared when you do a meet and greet with her, prior to an official booking. She has a checklist of questions and gives you knowledge, since she is a cat mom herself. When she is taking care of your fur baby, she updates you with every visit and sends pictures, videos, and a very thorough summary of what happened during her visit. She offers to tidy up the house before you come back from your break as well. She is very observant (for example she got my cat Milo a water dispenser since she noticed I didn’t have one). Overall she is a very thoughtful, welcoming, and knowledgeable person and I know that Milo enjoyed having her around. Don’t hesitate booking with Warda, you won’t regret it!

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. 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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
