“Amy checked in on my cats while I was out of town. She ensured they had food and water while I was away and even cleaned up any messes they made! I was so comforted to know that my cats were cared for while I was away. Amy did a great job!”
“Adrianna has done one extended stay and one drop in with our 3 dogs- plus our foster dog. We do not have easy dogs. She has been great. Definitely understands how to work with dogs of different temperaments. She is quick to respond and has always followed through and been on time.”
“Nicole took such good care of Oberyn while I was away. It was great to receive multiple pictures of him every afternoon of him playing and really put my mind at ease to see that he was doing just fine.”
About: I have 5+ years of pet care. I foster and currently volunteer with local humane societies. I can provide walks, daycare and boarding for up to two weeks! I have experience with extra small to XL dogs, young and elder cats and reptiles. I’m available 7 days a week 6AM to 8PM. I’m fairly flexible and can work around your schedule, just send me a message and we can work something out. I have a huge fenced in yard and a dog of my own. I have a spare flex room I use for kenneling and overnight boarding.
About: Im a pet owner myself with 2 kitties and a bully breed. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets including reptiles and birds as well as doing nail clippings with non aggressive pets. I taught my dog a few tricks like shake and spin. Overall very flexible with care on my days off. Thanks for looking! I currently work full-time 3 days a week, 12 hr shifts. Aside from that I’m free weekends to care for your babies while you take a vacation or a quick break! My pets are always supervised as they tend to be velcro babies. I take my pets out on a schedule as well as have a feeding schedule twice a day. Trips to the dog park are an option so long as safety is kept in mind, I tend to go when the park is less busy to avoid any potential fights. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds as they are family.
About: Hi! I'm Elle and I am a "pet-deprived" student at who recently graduated from UWEC. I did Rover a bunch while in Eau Claire and absolutely loved it. I have a special soft spot for labs, goldens, and vizelas but will love all breeds and sizes. Right now I’m mostly looking for dog walking and house sitting, but may be able to be flexible if needed. I would love to love your dog! As a 4th year student, I have a fairly limited on-campus class schedule. I am not gone more than two hours at a time each day for classes. If for some reason I am unable to get home within a two-hour block, either of my roommates would be happy to provide care and let them out if needed. I would love to take walks around campus with your pet or stay in your home as well! I have a few classes online and would be happy to work out of your home with your pet cuddled up with me. I adore walks around the UWEC campus area and surrounding neighborhoods, so having your pet with me would make them even better! I prefer caring for your pet in your home so that they feel more comfortable, but I am willing and able to care for them in my home if needed. I am very organized and responsible with feeding and medicine schedules if that is what your pet requires.
“Julia did an incredible job with my cats. Very communicative, sent great photos, and overall did a great job with them. One of my cats requires regular medication and had no problems administering the meds. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have been in the pet care industry since my first dog when I was 6, our family dog Skeeter was my best friend. Growing up I got my own dog in college my 3 year old black lab Otis who is as outgoing and loving as I am. I just recently brought a new wild one into. My home, my sweet German Shepherd Kiya! I currently work in a vet clinic and have worked in boarding/day care facilities. I own a home close to a big park and we love to walk there 2 times a day if not more and we love the outdoors. I work full time, I have half days every other Tuesday. Off every Wednesday. Half day every other Saturday. And I’m off on Sundays! I do have three sizes of crates if needed, however my dogs are now free roam and use their crates as safe spaces or nap time spots. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, it wouldn’t be called FURniture if they weren’t! However I do understand some parents may prefer their pets not on the bed or couch and I can continue that! I believe in structure for my dogs and will continue to follow your structure and “rules” you have set for your babies!
“Jade is a fantastic cat sitter. She went above and beyond. I couldn’t ask for a better experience!! We will definitely be asking her to help us in the future. Thank you, Jade!”
“Kelsie is a wonderful pet person. She is a good communicator and kept in touch with me right up until the days she started caring for my cat. I will make Kelsie my first contact when ever I need someone to help with my pet care.”
About: I've spent my entire life taking care of pets. I come from a family animal lovers, so I've spent a lot of time around animals. Although I love pets of all kinds, shapes and ages, I find I have special bonds with older dogs and snuggly cats. I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats and they were my constant companions. I'm comfortable giving medications as long as I am provided with detailed instructions. I appreciate detailed notes about how to care for your pet when more then the basics are needed. I look forward to taking care of your pet and loving them as much as you do. I work my regular job from 6am to 3pm, but when i come home i love to play with my little boy, Meeko. Meeko is a 13 year old Bengal that we rescued in 2014. He was abandoned and we spent a lot of time making him comfortable with us. Now he's the most loving boy. Meeko gets dry food throughout the day and wet food for dinner. He requires his water getting changed out multiple times a day, which we provide from his favorite source, the shower. For now, I am only offering to go to the clients house and not taking them into my home. My cat has some health issues and I don't like to cause him stress by inviting other pets into our home. but I do live next to a very nice park for walking around and I live near a dog park. i love going on walks with dogs and playing fetch. Running around them them and getting out their energy is definitely a goal i reach for.
About: Hi! My name is Phouthavone, but I go by Kat! 🐾 I’ve been around and cared for dogs my entire life. I currently have a 7-year-old rescue dog who’s been part of my family for five years, as well as a 2-year-old cat—so I’m very familiar with caring for both dogs and cats and all their different personalities! Both of my fur babies have sensitive stomachs, so I understand how important it is to follow feeding instructions, dietary restrictions, and routines carefully. I’ll make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and well-fed while they’re in my care. I also have previous experience as a human caregiver, which has taught me a lot of skills that transfer naturally into pet care—patience, attentiveness, responsibility, following routines, and making sure the person (or pet!) in my care is comfortable and safe. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and will treat your fur babies like they’re my own. Whether they want playtime, walks, company, or just lots and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them all the attention they need. 🐶🐱💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I currently work part-time, so my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your fur babies! I’m available throughout the week and can work around different feeding, walking, and potty schedules. I’m also happy to spend extra time playing with them or just keeping them company and giving them lots of cuddles. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’ll always follow any instructions you leave for me. I’m very attentive when it comes to feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, medications, walks, and anything else your pet may need. I also have a dog and cat of my own, so I know how nerve-racking it can be trusting someone else with your babies! I’ll treat them like I would want someone to treat mine and keep you updated while you’re away.
“Ann took care of our kitty Midi, and it went great. I appreciate the daily updates which included photos and videos. We will definitely reach out to Ann to look after Midi again.”
About: I've been taking care of people's cats and dogs alike ever since I was a teenager around the Edina neighborhood. I moved to Woodbury around 2019 where I adopted a cat. I grew up with dogs but I've wanted a cat too so now I'd say I'm proficient with both cats and dogs. I work part-time. I have flexible schedule on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.so I'm pretty much available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I'm available to stay overnight if that is a need for the pet. I always make sure to establish trust between myself and the pet and the pet parent. I also understand animals need time to adjust to new people and every animal is different. Some also need more space to adjust and I'm that person that will give the time and space the animal needs.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Farmington
Emma was wonderful. From the moment we met I knew our kitties were in good hands. She truly loves cats and understands their quirky personalities. She took care of everything I asked her to do, including a few “gifts” the kitties left her. I got updates on them and pictures as well. She was very attentive to their needs. It was clear from the pictures they loved their time with her. I highly recommend her and will user her again.

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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
