About: I have grown up with lots of dogs and cats and I love to take care of them, especially going for walks. I would love to walk your dog in your neighborhood. Going for walks is one of my favorite things. I have recently graduated from the E4Texas program at the University of Texas and am looking for a job. I am currently a student at Belterra Tae Kwon Do, and I love animals and pets and being outside. I would love to make caring for your pet a part of my routine. I will keep your pet safe in your home and when we are outside. I understand how important safety is when walking dogs in the neighborhood.
“Lauren was perfect! She took care of my cats and home while I was out of town. She kept me informed with pictures and the communication was wonderful. Will book with her again!”
“Carrie did a wonderful job giving our cat some love and attention while we were on vacation. She even helped reset our pet camera when it cut out. It gave me great comfort being away and seeing photos of them cuddling and him getting treats. I would highly recommend her services. Thank you for caring for Orangie!”
“Lilyanna was amazing! Even though both of us had hectic weeks going into my time away from home she was communicative and she sent so many pictures of my girls. When I got home they were happy and relaxed and I could tell they had been well cared for. Thanks Lilyanna!”
“Emily was great! Very good with communication before and during her time with my cat. She sent lots of pictures and my cat was well taken care of while we were gone. I would definitely use Emily again!”
“Willow was the pet sitting find a of a century, I’m so grateful I found her! She cared for my two kitties for two weeks, one of which has acute nasal lymphoma and had a lot of special needs and to do items. Willow pilled my cat daily, cleaned her nose and eyes (not an easy task) twice a day and made sure to keep a log of her progress for me and my vet. She went above and beyond for my babies (even vaccumed up dust and Litter) and by the end of it, they were so in love with her which speaks to her level of care, attention and passion. On top of this, willow is attentive, follows instructions well while being proactive and is highly communicative. I will 1000% be rebooking and I know my cats are excited to see her again.”
“Megan really helped make our trip so much more relaxed and assured our kitties were in great hands! She was so easy to work with on a changing schedule throughout the week and we felt comfortable and confident in her abilities and professionalism. Megan did great with medications as well and our cats also loved the playtime and cuddles! Thank you!! :)”
“Rebecca took amazing care of our two cats while we were away for 10 days. I was a little nervous leaving them for the first time, but I was thrilled with the care Rebecca gave to our cats. She provided daily updates, photos, and played with them. She went above and beyond by staying longer, giving them new toys and making them feel like they were on their own kitty vacation.”
“Victoria was so great to work with! Communicative, punctual and respectful of my shy senior cat. She took such good care of her, provided me detailed information of what was happening and took really great photos! I highly recommend her!”
“I have 2 cats and was away for 5 days and Hannah did a phenomenal job taking care of them! She checked in to share that they were doing well and did everything we asked. Would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
About: I have always loved fur animals! I was raised having dogs in the home and helping with neighbor pets when I was available. I am trained to care for puppies, small to medium-size dogs and cats. I do work full-time during the week but flexible with timely bookings and advanced notice. I do believe in giving the pets all the tenderness, love, and care they deserve. I do work full-time during the week and do commute daily. However, the early evenings are my available time. I do often have 3 day weekends and open to checking and being with the pets if needed. I do ask to have some flexibility to run errands, and I do attend classes on the weekends if scheduled. I am a grad student. I treat the client's home as my own. I am a very clean, tidy and responsible person. I am open to overnight visits but do request some flexibility depending on my schedule. I am open and available to walk pets as needed once I am back from work or not attending classes.
“Thumbs up- I would rebook her again in a heartbeat. Fast communication! If it’s one thing I love when I’m away it’s knowing that I’ll get a response about how my fur babies are doing as soon as possible. Lisa texts back quickly and with details. Came back to happy and well fed kitties. She listens to instructions and left the house the way she found it.”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals. I've taken care of dogs, cats, goats, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, and more. I have a particular soft spot for rats because I kept them as pets for over a decade. I also rehabilitated a couple of red-eared sliders growing up, have had some experience caring for bearded dragons, and had a pet tarantula many years ago. As of recently, I've started volunteering with a Texas wildlife rescue and rehabilitation facility in Kendalia, Texas. Suffice to say, my love of animals runs deep. My experience is relatively varied, and whether you want me to farm-sit or dog-sit, I am both excited and prepared to do either. I volunteer weekly for Kendalia Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation, where I am surrounded by many different kinds of animals, and I am constantly learning new things about their care needs. Over the summer, when I return to my family, I resume my usual responsibilities and mix pig feed, feed out hay to our goats, put up the chickens, clean as and where it's needed, and make sure that everybody's water is always clean and topped off. The routines surrounding these animals are second-nature to me, and I'm very comfortable around them, and find time spent looking out for them to be very fulfilling. I think it's very important to engage with the animals under my care, and I understand that that can look a bit different for each animal. If I'm going to be caring for cats, then I'll be sure to take the time to wiggle a cat wand or wave a laser pointer around. They will also absolutely get an occasional Churu as long as that's an acceptable treat. For dogs, I'm going to make sure I take ample time to play fetch with them, and that they get a nice long walk each day at least once.

Enjoy the exercise and companionship! Work from home with a flexible schedule. Very available, responsive, and caring to pets. Enjoy the exercise and companionship that pet sitting provides, so it's a win-win for me and your pet! In a single family home with a securely fenced yard. Also able to drive within a reasonable distance of central Austin area for drop-in services.
About: Hi there! I've been a dog person my whole life — I grew up with dogs and have raised five of my own as an adult. In 2025, I started volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I help with events and foster dogs in need. That experience deepened my love for animals and inspired me to offer extra support to pet owners when they're away. I'd love to meet your pets and help make your time apart as easy as possible! I work remotely and can do early morning and mid-day walks - in addition to evening walks. My weekends are open and can be available for multiple walks or overnight support. I treat every pet in my care like they're part of the family — because to me, they are. My approach centers on routine and reassurance: I stick closely to each pet's normal schedule (feeding times, walks, playtime) so they feel secure even when their owner isn't around. Responsibility is huge for me — I'm attentive to any specific care instructions, medications, or quirks each pet has, and I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax knowing their pet is happy and safe. In my own home, pets have a comfortable, secure space with constant supervision, and in a client's home, I respect their space while keeping the same consistent, loving care I'd give my foster dogs. At the end of the day, I want every pet to feel loved, comfortable, and excited to see me — and I want every owner to feel completely at ease while they're away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fitzhugh
We had a great experience with Kimberlee. She was reliable, professional, and thorough while looking after our very skittish kitty, Mia. She sent photo updates of each visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She also took care of our houseplants, fed the birds outside and refilled the hummingbird feeder. Highly recommend Kimberlee!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Exceptional Care Olivia took care of our Siamese, Bailey, for five days over the Christmas holiday, and we couldn’t be more impressed. From the very beginning, she made sure Bailey had every creature comfort and treated her with so much patience and respect. She sent plenty of photos for our peace of mind, and she took the time to truly understand Bailey’s personality and routines—which made us feel completely confident in her care. She also went above and beyond—thoroughly cleaning Bailey’s litter box and keeping everything spotless. It was a blessing to find someone this attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in our pet’s well‑being. We will absolutely be rebooking Olivia any time we need a Rover. She is truly outstanding.
Brian was an excellent sitter. He was very attentive to the needs of our kitties. He gave detailed summaries after each visit and sent great pictures. Scout, Rover and Abigail were well cared for and happy when we returned. I would highly recommend Brian’s services and plan to use him again when for our next trip!

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.
