“We are so grateful to Heidi for all her care and attention she gave to our two kitties while we were away. Being the first time we had left them for a long period of time it was nice to get many daily photos and updates to know they were well cared for while we were gone. We would not hesitate to reach out to Heidi in the future!”
“Paige is incredible! She took such good care of my kitties and I had zero concerns being away from them. She was great with bringing in packages so they would not sit out all week. She played with the kitties, gave them lots of attention, and kept me updated every step of the way! I will for sure use Paige again to watch my kitties and highly recommend her for anyone else looking for a kind, caring, communicative, and all around amazing kitty sitter!”
“Jennifer is fantastic with our elderly and special needs cats. She can manage their unique diets and medications and is kind and patient with them too. We've had her watch our pets several times in the past and she is our go-to most trusted option any time we need a sitter.”
“Regina was fantastic! I had never used a sitter before, and she made the process so simple and easy. Her daily reports gave me the confidence that my cat was in great hands while I was gone. I will 100% use her again on future trips!”
About: Experience raising a puppy. I cater to pups of all sizes and energy levels. My dog is not in a crate but we did crate train him I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to work from home most days. I anm available for potty breaks, walks, snuggles, or playing fetch. I have a large, unfenced yard but I do have a long lead we can use if necessary. I can use a crate if your dog is crate trained. I’m familiar to and accommodating of specialty diets. Rico and I love walks and running at the dog park down the road!
“Emma was so great! She was prompt to respond, flexible, and kept us in the loop with really sweet updates & photos throughout. Our cat Billie seemed to warm up to her super quick & was clearly well cared for while we were away. Will absolutely book with Emma again!!”
“Ashly was great with my four boys and sought them out to give them some love while she was here. The photos were lovely and I could tell they felt comfort with her. I’ve already hired her for my next work trip.”
About: Savannah here! I have three dogs and an orange kitty. I’ve been around animals my entire life and absolutely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for senior dogs and pets that may need a little extra patience, attention, and love. I’ve also been around dog breeding for 10+ years, which has given me experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to provide care that fits their needs! My services include: •30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood to help your pup get fresh air, exercise, and a little adventure during the day. •30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of love to make sure your pet is comfortable while you're gone. You can book up to three drop-ins per day! Every pet is different, so I’m always happy to accommodate extra needs or customize visits to fit your pet’s routine. My availability is flexible, feel free to reach out with your preferred dates and times! • I always offer a (free) 10-minute meet-and-greet before any drop-in or walking service. This gives us a chance to meet, helps your pet get familiar with me, and lets us go over their routine and any other needs. Meet-and-greets are not required to book with me, they are simply available if you’d like a little extra comfort and peace of mind before our first visit!
About: I’ve worked with a lot of different kinds of dogs big and small. I took a few classes with a guide dog company to learn to train dogs that are reactive. I have a puppy I’m raising who would love to meet your animals. I have to take care of my puppy and adding another dog to the schedule isn’t very hard for me to do. Every morning we go to the dog park and get some energy out after breakfast. I have a puppy that loves to hangout and play with all dogs. We do a lot of walking and go to the dog park every morning to get some energy out.
“Stephanie was great! I can tell my pet was well cared for and I also came home to a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than when I left it. I will happily use her again!”
“Catherine was wonderful with our cats! Patient, attentive and sent sweet daily updates and pictures. She eased our worries while being away and provided lots of comfort for our boys. Thank you Catherine ♥️”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Excelsior
Paige did a great job with our two cats, stopped in daily at the same time and played with and fed them, cleaned the litter box and sent us daily updates and photos, and all went well! And the best thing was, unlike other times when we've been gone, the cats had no behavioral issues, didn't chew anything up or leave poop surprise anywhere to show their defiance-- everything was normal when we got home and they seem perfectly content :)
Maria did okay with my cat Polly. Maria played with Polly and Polly seemed comfortable with her. Polly's food scoop was left in a different location than it started and her water bowls weren't refilled, which is why I docked a star. I would trust Maria to watch Polly again and improve.

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Excelsior. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
