“Kati did a great job taking care of our cat. She arrived as scheduled. Spent lots of time with him and made sure the house was locked up and the alarm was set. Katie also sent lots of feedback and pictures😊”
“Katerina was absolutely perfect! This was my first time using Rover and she made the experience very easy and nice! She did exactly what we needed which was visit our babies once a day and feed and play with them, but she went above and beyond when she sent photos and videos of them at each visit! It was so nice to get those updates while we were away! I will absolutely be using Rover again, especially Katerina! Thanks again!!!”
“Krystal did a FANTASTIC job with our cats. One of which is not usually friendly / kind, he warmed up to her quickly and was even walking on her lap! You can feel 100% confident that Krystal will take great care of your furry friends. Will be back time & time again to work with her when we need help with the cats!”
“Kaylee did a great job. Very communicative and flexible when there was issues with our garage door opener while we were away. Glad to have her able to check in on our dog while we were away for a trip.”
“Teena was a god send - giving me peace of mind that my fur babies were in good hands while I was in India. She sent lovely notes with pictures from each visit. They were in perfect health upon my return as if I'd never left! She played ball and gave them the attention they wanted - very happy with her services!!!”
“Nataliia was wonderful! She took the time out of her day to meet with our 3 year old dog to get acquainted. She came to the 1 hour drop in a little early and stayed a little over to ensure that our dog was well taken care of and had everything she needed before leaving. We will definitely be booking with her in the future.”
“Becca was an excellent sitter — reliable, communicative, and great with our pup. I appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“Taylor is prompt, professional, and very good with dogs! She clearly has experience dealing with dogs and was able to adapt to some changing conditions we had. My dogs loved her and got all the exercise they needed when she stopped by. I will definitely use Taylor again!”
“Tania was available super last minute for us and took great care of our dogs! She’s communicative, sends photos and videos, and takes time to play with our dogs. They love her and so do we!”
“Mallory takes great care of Sasha and Sasha lives her walks and play with Mallory. We try to use her every time we aren’t able to take care of Sasha ourselves. She is great.”
“Dorothy was great to work with! She was very communicative with her visits, and our cat was happy to see her when she stopped by. We came to a well taken care of home and kitty 😊 Would recommend and book with her again!”
“Anna was just wonderful! She came for drop-in visits and looked after my dog and cat while we were gone for 8 days. I looked forward to seeing the photos of my sweet dog on his walks and I couldn’t believe my extremely shy cat made appearances for photos, too! We were relaxed on our vacation knowing our pets were well looked after. Thank you so very much, Anna!”
“Jason communicated beyond expectation when dropping in to feed and walk my dog. Jason was kind enough to meet ahead of time to do a quick walk through and get the key. Thank you Jason for your diligence!”
“Hope was somewhat new to Rover but I found her to be a wonderful pet sitter. She was always prompt, sent pictures and became good friends with Oliver. He looked forward to her visits. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting job. I definitely would use her again. Oliver really liked her and that was important! Great job Hope! Thank you!”
“Chose Doug to drop in on my two pups a couple times yesterday evening. Before the night he was needed, we had a meet and greet. Doug was very thorough in his questions and I felt extremely confident in choosing him to look after my dogs. All in all, he did a great job & I look forward to have him help us in the future.”
“Chris was amazing, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone needing dog sitting. My pups took to him immediately, and got excited when he’d come over to walk them. They really enjoyed the special attention he gave them, and he was great at giving me updates during my very long business trip. I felt my dogs were in the best hands! Thanks, Chris!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forest Lake
I can’t say enough about Amanda. I use her frequently as I’ve been traveling a lot. My cat loves her. The Rover cards are always detailed and I get a bunch of photos so I feel like both that she is really well cared for and that only a sitter who cares for my kitty would take the time to let me know what my cat is doing, how they interacted, what the sitter did and how my cat was acting. And Amanda is nice to talk and work with. Highly recommend.

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.
