“Axell did a great job looking after our 2 cats. They communicated well, sent us photos and videos and did everything we asked and more. For instance, there was a wind storm while we were gone and axell cleared branches off of our walkway. One of our cats has asthma and requires medicine twice a day so we are so happy that we had such a reliable cat sitter!”
“Kimberly was quick to respond and took a lot of great photos of our kitties! They seemed well cared for and happy when we returned. There was an issue with the times being mixed up and she was an hour late but she did do some extra pet care while visiting.”
“Sarah was so good with our kitties! She played with them a bunch, took lots photos and gave us updates each day 😊 the cats seemed really comfortable with her, and really loved the playtime, if the photos are anything to go off of 😂 we would absolutely request Sarah again! Thanks for such a wonderful experience Sarah!”
“We appreciate Rose taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She was on time and made sure to lay eyes on each of them, even in their very difficult hiding spots, each visit.”
“Chris was great! This was the first time I had to hire someone to take care of Motor and it couldn’t have gone better. She came by twice a day to check in and feed him and he took to her right away. You can tell she truly loves cats and really enjoys working with them. I will definitely hire her again if I ever need coverage.”
“Fantastic experience. Jodi has such a beautiful space for cats. I’ve never boarded my cats and was nervous about what to expect, but it’s such a nice accommodation that my cats probably think they’re slumming it coming home. 100% will use again if I ever need to board.”
“Cassie was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our cats while we were away and did all the things we asked. She provided great updates and was communicative and supportive throughout the weekend! Highly recommend her!! Will be asking her to watch our cats again!”

“Morgan did a great job taking care of my two cats. She sent me photos and updates. She made time to entertain my babies and gave them treats. Morgan was very organized. When we first met she was taking down notes to try and meet my preferences. Morgan was very communicative, if she was unsure of any instructions or concerns she asked for more information. I would definitely hire her services again.”

Christina was absolutely amazing with both of my kitties. She was attentive and gave each the attention they individually needed. She was responsive, able to come on a moments notice and gave incredible pet comments during each visit. Will definitely be using again in the future.
Jodi is amazing, this was probably the 6th or 7th time that she's taken care of the kitties! She took excellent care of our furbabies and our home - going the extra mile to bring in packages and helping us coordinate through a plumbing emergency whilst being on the other side of the planet! The cats were very happy with her, tails up throughout the trip and lots of personalized love and attention for the shyer fur baby. The home was well taken care of and it was clear that Jodi had taken care to broom around the stairs and always been prompt and thorough with the litter and meds. 10/10, wouldn't go with any other sitter. She even made a video for me when I began missing them extra and was even open to a facetime!! THANK YOU!!
Rose offered a casual meet and greet first with our kitty, giving us all greater peace of mind since this was our first time using a professional sitter. Rose did a great job, sent updates, and our kitty was brave enough by the end to say hello. Would definitely utilize Rose again!
We love Kimberly! More important, our cats adore her too! She keeps us well informed, responds in great time, and we know our home and animals are in good hands. Whether we are traveling locally or abroad, that comfort is priceless. We're repeat customers and heartily recommend Kimberly.

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.
