About: I’ve had my dog, Teddy, since I was about 7, and he’s a big bundle of fur. I’ve taken care of various cats/dogs for friends, neighbors, and family throughout the years. If your dog requires extra exercise, I am a college athlete who is happy to go on runs with them, as well as taking them to parks, etc. for extra playtime. If you have any specific requests, feel free to ask! During the summer, I’m free most of the time and have a very flexible schedule. I often have practice in the evenings, but other than that, I’m mostly free I’m happy to chill all day with you pets or exercise them multiple times a day depending on what they need. I have a dog and a cat myself (I live with my parents so taking care of them at the same time isn’t a concern), and know how to give animals LOTS of attention :)
“Journey is awesome. She is quick to respond to texts and is a great communicator. She is also thorough and doesn’t miss a thing! I am a helicopter mom and I leave extensive notes when I’m out of town and Journey always does everything exactly the way I requested :) I can tell she really does care about animals and she is very trustworthy. Choose Journey for your next booking!”
“Jessica was wonderful with our anxious pup. He unexpectedly got sick while we were away and took on the responsibility of giving him his medication. Very trustworthy & caring. I highly recommend her.”
“Kari did a fantastic job checking up on my two cats while I was out of the country. She even took pics which I know is not an easy task with my cats…they’re either elusive or constantly moving. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask Kari for her services again in the future.”
“First time I’ve had someone on Rover come to my house but Kearsten was amazing!! We have a dog that has medical issues and also a cat with cancer. She was very helpful with them and knew exactly how to take care of them thanks to her vet background. She also brought some treats to help with giving our cat his medicine which was soo sweet! I cannot stress how much I recommend her!!”

“I really enjoyed working with JaNiya this past week as she performed drop in visits for our cat, Mae-C. Mae-C has a new friend now and the two of them played together and enjoyed an hour long visit each day interacting with treats, games, grooming and music. JaNiya also helped with a few light chores around the house like checking the mail and watering the plants. She was also very accommodating and our cat just loves her. We have two more trips before the end of the year and we will definitely check her availability. JaNiya, we really appreciate you. Thanks so much.”

About: I have over a decade of dedicated experience in animal care, beginning with a lifetime of raising family cats and dogs. For 12 years, I was the proud owner of a British Bombay. My formal experience includes a 10-year tenure as a volunteer at the Southern Pines Animal Shelter in Hattiesburg, MS, where I assisted with kennel maintenance, exercise programs, and medical care, including administering vaccinations,. Currently, I am expanding my professional expertise by working towards AKC certifications to ensure the highest standard of care for every pet I work with. I am currently working a full-time job, but I have some flexibility. My availability for house sits is wide open. My availability for drop-ins & walks: - All day Tuesday, Thursday, & Sunday - Monday & Wednesday 6 am - 10 am - Friday & Saturday after 6 pm I have a large fenced in back yard and a friendly pitbull to keep your dog company. I can easily separate the animals if necessary and or crate your dog.
“Huntter is absolutely fantastic!!! He came over before the visit to walk through everything and meet the kitties. He is very smart and easy to talk to, and picked up on all of our routines and instructions very easily. When it came time for the trip, Huntter was incredibly punctual and communicative. He sent pics, took amazing care of our cats, and also some various other things our house needed while we were gone for a week. We came home to everything looking perfect, and most importantly, two very happy healthy kitties! We HIGHLY recommend Huntter and we are so thankful for the wonderful care for Peach and Ripple!”
“Hal is a great communicator! And if Rover has a grading system, I would give A+ to his report (card). Overall we’re fully satisfied with his service and we already booked more dates with him!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was a child and grew up on a farm, where caring for animals was part of my daily life. I had Boston Terriers along with a variety of other animals, and they were my responsibility, so I learned early on how to read animal behavior, stay patient, and provide consistent care. What sets me apart is that my schedule allows me to be flexible. I’m also reliable and able to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all ages, including puppies who need structure and basic training, as well as senior dogs who may require a slower pace, extra patience, or medication routines. I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, safe, and dependable environment so both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine alongside grad school. I plan my schedule so I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I keep my availability updated to stay consistent. During the week, I balance classes with pet care by organizing my day around walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I also keep my weekends more open, which allows me to take on additional bookings, longer visits, or overnight care. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. My goal is to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, while keeping their environment clean and secure. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and supervised environment where they can feel comfortable. I make sure they get regular walks, structured feeding times, and lots of interaction, while also giving them space to relax if needed. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that’s high-energy play, basic puppy routines, or slower, gentle care for senior pets. My focus is always on making pets feel safe, cared for, and at home.
“Dominique was wonderful. Ended up having some winter weather while we were away and she literally walked to our house to make sure Bodie was taken care of. Will definitely use again!”
“Jordan was absolutely amazing! I needed a last minute sitter to help me while I was in town and she answered me so quickly. Called and well and provided excellent care. It really gave me such a peace of mind!”
“She was always on time and easy to communicate with. Great with my feline and left in-app notes to let me know how the visit went if there were any issues/concerns. Def recommend to others!”
“We love Nicole! She takes the best care of our shy kitties and our friendly outdoor kitties that she feeds when she is over as well. We know we can always rely on Nicole. I will recommend her to any one looking for a wonderful pet sitter.”

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.
