“I'm so thankful that Jody was able to look after my little Olive (tabby cat). Jody took great care of our girl, and I appreciated the reports and pics so much. I will absolutely request Jody the next time Olive needs care! Thanks Jody!”
“Both of my kitties love Marisa! While I was out of town on a business trip I had her look after my boys. At first I was a little worried since I had not been away from home for that long of a period since I got one of my kitties. Needless to say, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She took great care of them, and even though both of my boys can be shy, they were following her around like a shadow. I received tons of photos and she did a great job with leaving detailed check-in for me to check up with. I cannot say enough about how comfortable I felt with her looking after my boys.”
“Stephanie has been great! This is the second time she's watched my greyhound Chuck in 3 weeks now. She's very communicative and even once was able to change his food on the fly (he's having some belly issues) while I was out of town. She has the utmost concern for the animal's well being. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be booking again.”
“Kaylee is such an awesome sitter. My dogs love her and she takes the best pictures of them with goofy happy dog grins. I appreciate how dependable Kaylee is, I can always rely on her to show up when she says she will and she is great at communicating. I’m lucky to have her as my sitter.”
“Diana did a great job. Sent me updates and pictures every day. Milo was well taken care of and it was reassuring to know he was happy and could stay in his home while I was on a family vacation. I would highly recommend Diana and I would use her again.”
“Your Review Michelle Z. took care of my two cats, one of which is totally blind. I knew the first time I met Michelle, she was the right person for the job, but she far exceeded my expectations. She helped me troubleshoot getting rid of uninvited guests to the food bowls, volunteered to come for extra visits when the need arose, washed out the wet food cans before throwing in the recyclable bin and she kept the house, the floors, the litter boxes and the food bowls spic-and-span. I highly recommend Michelle, and will request her in the future, Lee R.”
“Madalyn is amazing! She does a very good job taking care of my boys while im away for work. She follows instructions extremely well, and the follow ups is excellent! I highly recommend Madalyn for your fur babies!”
“Monica was again, able to provide 5-star sitter services for my Big Guy. Long walks, drop in visits, feedings, pictures and great communication. I would highly recommend her for pet care needs. Thank you again Monica, Ripley is so happy when you visit him!”
“Kim took wonderful care of our cat and dog. Neither of them is quick to warm up to new people, but she was communicative, prompt, and patient. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We’re really grateful and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for great pet care.”
About: I have had all kinds of dogs & a cat since I was a kid; Schnauzers, Beagles, Pittie mixes, and a Chihuahua. My girlfriend & I currently have a 10 year old pitty named Cannoli, a son to be 2 year old pitty- Great Pyrenees named Carl and 2 12 year old chihuahuas named Tyson and Felix. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets while they are away. I am currently available during the week Monday-Friday 10am-10pm (and some weekends), so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for walks or drop ins. Would love to regularly walk or drop in with your furry friends weekly or a few times a week! Active pet sitter near parks & walking trails. I enjoy taking pups on long walks or runs outdoors, or even just providing some company in the house while your are away.
About: I grew up with pets, I have 3 dogs my oldest one is 11. I watch over a friend's dogs as of right now. I'll be able to walk your dog however long you would need me to and make sure they have water and are fed if needed. If there's any messes I see around I'll clean them up. My friend has a cat and I love going over to his house to pet her. she's grown a liking to me and I have to her as well, I give her treats time to time and pet her a lot. I don't know how to clean a litter box. but I can definitely give your cat some quality time and play, feed the cat and make sure they have water. I always make sure my pets have water, especially after a walk or if it's a hot day out. Love to play with my dogs and lay with them in the couch.
“Brittany is great… she took such good care of our babies… sent pictures and updates every day… very professional and responsible… we will keep using her for all of our sitting needs!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and birds since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I also worked for a veterinarian for about 2 years and I am currently going to school to become a veterinary technician. I have a 1 1/2-year-old dog that I am currently training her to be a therapy dog. I am available 7 days a week while working full-time Monday thru Friday. I’ll be able to pet sit in your home. Check out my calendar to see what days I’m not currently booked. In my clients' homes, I give the animals all of my attention and follow any special directions the client leaves for me. I am a firm believer in leaving things better than how I found them, so I am always sure to clean up, lock up, use common sense, and follow proper & appropriate protocol and instruction.

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
