“Helen is wonderful! She responds quickly and was able to accommodate last minute requests. She is great with our puppy always keeping her entertained. We will definitely continue to use Helen’s services.”
“Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.”
“Cathy-Jo is amazing! She gave my special needs cat pills without any issue, and she gave us consistent pictures and updates! I definitely recommend her to take care of your furbabies!”
“Once again, Cathy provided exceptional care for our dog! Cathy is always prompt and professional. She communicates so well to let us know about each visit. She treats our pets just like her own! I highly recommend Cathy!”
About: I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with basic training, medication routines, and keeping pups on a consistent schedule. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every dog like my own. I pay attention to each dog’s personality and make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood—plus I always share photo updates so you can relax while you’re away. I just recently graduated from university, so my weekdays and weekends are mostly free! I am available to take care of your pets from Monday-Saturday. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel safest and most relaxed! Whether I’m staying overnight or stopping by for a few hours, I stick to your dog’s routine, keep their space clean and secure, and make sure they get plenty of attention and supervision. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and always focused on creating a calm, safe environment for your pet.
“Lexi went above and beyond. She not only cared for our cat (who loved her!!) but she also saved our home when our water heater exploded and was leaking all over our house. Seriously saved the day!!! 15/10 would recommend and will be booking with her again!!!”
About: I've owned dogs, cats & horses my entire life. I currently have 2 rescue dogs, 2 cats and a horse that are all treated like human children. I'm familiar with both young and elderly animals that require medical assistance. I work from home in Glen Allen. I have a flexible schedule and can check on your pet during the day and before/after work. I am comfortable with walking all dogs, crating dogs, working on commands and especially providing love and treats if desired! Happy to also prepare lick mats or other stimulation while you're away.
“Anna was great! She followed all of our care instructions, and she arrived early each time to her visits. She sent updates and was very caring towards our kitties. If you're in the Glen Allen area and you need someone to look after your cats, I highly recommend Anna!”
“Sierra took such wonderful care of our dog and two cats, and we look forward to working with her next time we have a trip. This was our older dog’s first time staying home for a trip (she’s usually boarded), and Sierra did a fantastic job caring for her. Her communication was frequent and prompt, and she sent lots of great photos for us to see how our pets were doing while we were gone for the week. Certainly recommend Sierra for all your petsitting needs!”
“Laura is fantastic! We always feel completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Her communication is excellent, and we know our pup is always well-looked after. Highly recommend her!”
“Taylor did a great job with our dog Arden! She was very communicative and provided daily updates to go along with the photos. Got back home from our trip to a happy pup. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Corrine was amazing! This was our first time away from the cats and having someone check in on them made us feel so much better. Corrine took care of litter boxes, feedings, and playtime. We could tell they were in good spirits and had been well taken care of upon our return!”
“Once again, Steven stepped up when the unexpected happened! I failed to provide the alarm access - and he had to deal with that ALARM sounding and the impact on the kitties. He is always calm and handles all issues with professionalism. Thanks (again!), Steven!”
“Allyson did a great job watching our 2 pups over a few days, and was very flexible with our schedule, which we so appreciate! She took care of the dogs to the same level we do with so much care, and was very communicative over the whole duration of her checking in on them. Highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hello, my name is Darwin. I grew up around all kinds of animals and have many years of experience with taking care of dogs. I am trustworthy, reliable, and experienced. I am willing to care and sit for your companions for a reasonable price. I work full time as a manager and have a pretty flexible schedule. My free time usually starts after 3pm, but I can always plan accordingly to you and your pets need. I have a fenced yard that allows my pups to roam around and explore. They get consistent care and are very loved, and I would love to do the same for your furry friends.
“Brandi was able to come last minute when my travel plans changed and my dog loved her! She took great pictures and gave long updates. Leaving a senior dog alone for more than a day is always scary, but I felt confident with Brandi doing drop ins. If I have to travel without my dog again, I know she'll be happy!”
“Very communicative and was awesome! My mom and I live about ten minutes away from each other, but we both went on vacation so we booked Krystal for both of us with close times together. She made it work and worked with us on it. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had animals growing up ever since I was little. I’ve grown up with 4 dogs in the household and currently have my own. I absolutely adore all animals and would love to take care of your beloved animal I work and go to school daily but during the summer, I can definitely be more free. I always take breaks to walk the dogs around the neighborhood. I always be adequate to feed them and give them water throughout the day at their assigned eating times! If the dog is crate, trained to sleep in the crate at night, they’re welcome to sleep in the crate or if the owner wants, they can sleep in the bed with me. I do not mind.

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.
