“Lexi & Aaron did drop-in visits for Louis, our attention needy :) cat. They were dependable and I'm sure if cats could talk, Louis would say 'they were great!' He was a happy guy when we got home & his litter box was so clean. Knowing someone was dropping in to hang out with him (& give him his wet nummy food) made our vacation more enjoyable.”
“Everything went smoothly, and I could not be more pleased! Maisie can be a shy girl sometimes but she took to Katie right away when Katie came for the meet-and-greet before setting up the recurring visits. That made me feel secure right there. It's a weight off my mind to know someone reliable, kind and caring is looking in on my little ones.”

“Julia did a fantastic job taking care of our Callie during one weekend. She was attentive to her needs and also flexible for feedings and medication administration. She helped us out last minute and made us feel at ease that she was taken care of. Highly recommend her to take care of your fur baby! They will be in excellent hands!”
“Jen did great! E we’re gone two weeks but you would have thought we had only gone to work. She must have given him a LOT of attention. She sent great updates and photos. She even made an extra stop when she thought he wasn’t feeling well. Thanks Jen!!”
“Hailey took such excellent care of our dog Buddy. I would absolutely 💯 recommend her. She is natural with pets! Knowing she took such great care of Buddy, made our vacation so much more relaxing, enjoyable and worry-free. We are looking forward to booking with Hailey again soon.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life whether it be my own pets or other people’s pets. I love cats and dogs and have experience in caring for pets with health problems and pets who are a little bit older. I do well with all different sizes and breeds of cats and dogs. I am an athletic person so taking pets on walks is a great workout for both me and your pet! I work off my own schedule so anytime outside of 10pm-6am I can be there to take care or walk your pet. I am free any day of the week. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. Any instructions will be followed to completely. For walks I know of many parks and for longer walks trails.
“Dave has sat for our cat Silkybear twice now and our wee Beta fish. He is kind and friendly and I feel very comfortable knowing I can leave town for a trip or family obligation and our pets will be in good hands.”
About: From week long in-home stays to quick 15 minute walks, I have done it all! I started occasional dog walking in 8th grade and i’ve continued pet care for 9 years. I have experience with high energy and large dogs like Belgian Malinois to lower energy senior dogs that just need companionship. I can truly cater to each dog and what they need. I grew up with dogs and currently have two, a rottweiler and a lab. I currently work two jobs but they are usually pretty spread out time wise. I work in the morning from 7:30 to 2:00pm and two nights a week from 7:00pm to 12:00 am. I have weekends free so plenty of time for visiting! I will not be able to offer any in home care as I have two dogs at home that do not enjoy the company of others.
About: I have always had cats and dogs my whole life. Friends and family ask me to watch their pets frequently when they are out of town. I also have a soft spot for the senior pets who need that extra love and care. I currently work part-time from home so I have plenty of flexibility and time to spend with your pet(s) and fit in any additional care they may need. When I visit your home, just let me know your routine and I will continue your usual care to provide stability and predictability with your pet(s).
“I have used Jessi for my 3 very different cats, with very specific needs and I have been incredibly happy, multiple times! She always makes me feel very comfortable with being away from my babies! I am so thankful to her and plan to use her every time we need someone to check in on my kids!”
“Allison is amazing! She takes such great care of our puppy. She sends us photos of him and gives him lots of love. She even shoveled a place for him to go potty on a snowy day. Highly recommend!”
About: I do part time senior Care and some of my clients have animals I find it very important that they are well taken care of and happy as they bring a lot of comfort to my clients when I'm away This means plenty of walks up and down hills going out and sitting on the grass at live music shows and tons of interactions with other dogs while we shop for groceries downtown Food schedules almost go hand in hand when Im meal prepping for my human clients We've invented a few new games with my one clients and her lab misty Her favorite being the wagon tire I attacted to a bind of cordage and a spring up in a tree limb misty loves to jump and snatch the tire while it bounces around Well I love to work out throughout the week and on weekends I would normally go for small hikes woth my friend but she has developed a respiratory issue and can no longer do so I find it would be amazing to get some energy out with so eager to run and play dogs I monitor a lot of potential puppy problems as I call them after all big dogs share a lot in common with toddlers you have to make sure that they arnt biting scratching chewing or marking any beloved items or areas in the house Getting sufficient exercise helps stimulate the dog's and corner these bad behaviors Plenty of treats and positive reinforcement goes a long way as well
“I’ve had a great experience with Ana! My dogs liked her immediately during our meet and greet, and I could tell she knew her way around bigger dogs. Communication was super straightforward and fast - she even asked how often I want updates, which I really appreciate. Ramses was very relaxed when I came home after Ana’s visit. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Nikki checked in our cat during a weekend away, and she was great to work with. She was responsive and prompt, and took wonderful care of our cat. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nikki again or recommend her to others!”
“Chris was awesome with dropping in to check on our cat. Had a last minute emergency and he was able to fill in. He communicated well and was able to rearrange his schedule to make it work. Would reach out again with no second thoughts!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Elm Grove
Julia was absolutely amazing! She was kind enough to visit before our booking to grab keys to our home and meet Patty. She spent a long time on her visit and took the cutest pictures! It gave me so much reassurance to see how she was doing each day. This was our first time using a sitter, but Julia made the process so much easier. We look forward to having her visit Patty again! Thank you, Julia!
We cannot recommend Carolyn highly enough! She did a fantastic job watching our cats, Ava and Chase. She followed all of our care instructions and made sure to spend quality time playing with them. It was so reassuring to see the attention to detail she had, like cleaning out their bowls at every single feeding. On top of the stellar care, she took absolutely incredible pictures of them while we were away! We would book with her again with zero hesitation.
Jenifer was amazing doing drop and visits for our cats. We really appreciated how responsive she was when we first reached out to her. Her communication was great, including photos of her daily visits. We felt very comfortable having her in her home and have no doubt our pets were well cared for. We will absolutely rebook with Jenifer!
Jennifer did a wonderful job with our cats! Our cats doesn’t usually come out when strangers are in the house, but he came out to say hi. Jennifer responded very quickly and sent pictures. First time we had someone outside the family watch our boys and we were very pleased — would highly recommend.

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.
