“Colin has been so great for Remi! He takes good care of him on his Wednesday check in and walk! Even feeds him lunch! Colin is very responsive and always sends pics and updates which I love! We will continue to use Colin as our go to sitter for our boy!”
“Katrina is so nice and was a pleasure to communicate with. She helped us in a time of need and made it so easy for us. I felt really comfortable with her caring for our pet. Will definitely use her again!”
“Katharine did an amazing job with our animals while we were gone. Our one cat has a severe heart condition that requires him to get 3 meds a day. Katharine did it with ease and took all our suggestions from how to catch the clever cat who knows how to dodge his medicine time to the easiest way we can administer his meds. We've had caregivers unsuccessful but Katharine came in with a plan each day and accomplished it which we are so grateful for. She also picked up our mail and knew to keep an eye out for a reptile food order for our leopard geckos that ended up not arriving but her willingness to go above and beyond for our critters was such a relief being away. She also sent us detailed photos of not only the cats and geckos but the food and water status for each which is another peace of mind for us being away too. We know our pets are cared well for while we are gone. Thank you Katharine!!! We hope youre available whenever we are away!”
“Matt is so friendly, and was great with helping take our dog out for potty breaks while we were traveling. He clearly loves animals, and they love him! Every picture he sent of our pup made that especially clear.”
“Blaise did an awesome job with my dogs while I was out of town. They warmed up to him quickly, and he made sure they were taken care of which kept my mind at ease. Would definitely hire again :)”
“Emily was wonderful! She came over for a meet and greet before taking care of our three cats. I appreciated her taking the time to do that. She was extremely thorough and very communicative which I also appreciate it. She took great care of the cats and my house! She really went above and beyond. I appreciate her and definitely recommend hiring her.”
About: I have been a lover and caretaker for animals since I was young. I foster puppy’s often and love it. Having the opportunity to train and prep them to find their forever homes is so special to me. From potty training, to obedience training and everything in between as a start to giving them their best lives! Through Fostering, I have learned how to connect with dogs on a different level. I would love to have the opportunity to walk, connect and take care of your animals as needed. I work part time and I have plenty of time to do drop ins or take your pups on a nice walk. Around the neighborhood or a few miles in the woods. What ever matches their energy. I treat every animal I care for like they are my own, keeping them safe and loved while they are in my care. ❤️ ❤️
About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm available for petsitting any day of the week and can work around any personal appointments. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.
“Elizabeth was wonderful, kind, reliable, and very responsive. She was available on short notice, which was a huge help for us. She took great care of not only our cat, Nuggets, but also our 4 chickens! We felt completely at ease knowing our babies were in such good hands. We were so happy with her care that we have already hired her again for our next vacation. Highly recommend!”
“Priscilla had been doing drops ins for our 4 month old puppy for the past few weeks. Not only does she take Paisley out for us but has been helping with her leash walking and place command. Priscilla has been on time and provides information and pictures immediately after each visit. Highly recommend Priscilla for any of your dog sitting needs!”

Would love to get to know your pet :) I work full time walking/ pet sitting for a company Monday - Friday and weekends for sitting. I’m looking to expand to some new clients! I could even bring your dog with me for the day on walks with other dogs if I’m sitting them and they would be up for it I can stay in someone’s home or have someone’s dog/ dogs stay in my home if they are friendly with other dogs as I do have my own dog
“I highly recommend Kayla G. My dogs are very spoiled and do not really like people who do not live in our house, but they love her. I have asked Kayla back a few times so I could go away on vacation and she was very communicative and took great care of them.”

Elizabeth did a great job with our pets. Our one cat requires 3 meds daily for a heart condition. She administered the meds and also alerted us of an issue with the volume left in one bottle which led to a shipping issue with the vendor. We were able to resolve it immediately, so he wasn't without his one med for too long. She took care of the geckos and their crazy diets with ease. We definitely trusted and will continue to trust Elizabeth with our animal's care. She did amazing!
Emily was very reliable and caring coming by to check on my cat Henry while I was on vacation. He was a little shy at first but warmed up to her after a few visits. I had peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of while I was away. I liked the pictures she sent with the daily visit update. I would definitely recommend Emily if you need someone to tale care of your pets while ypu are away.
Mariah took care of our cats and Leopard geckos over Christmas break. The geckos ran out of crickets because they all decided to die (pretty common) so she went to the pet store and got them more which was above and beyond what was expected. She was persistent when it came to catching our kitty that needs his heart meds each day and knows how to play a good game of hide and seek to try to keep away. We know our animals are safe with Mariah and our house too as she also brought in packages that arrived while we were away.

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.
