“Thank you so much, Anna, for taking such wonderful care of my cat! You were very attentive and thoughtful, and everything looked great while I was away. I truly appreciate your help and would be happy to book with you again!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover for over 10 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I have a sweet and friendly Bichon Poodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pup. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, daily routines, and lots of love and companionship. I always do my best to help every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home, and I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I can also adjust my schedule to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. I live in a single-family home with a fully fenced yard, providing a safe and comfortable space for dogs to play and relax. I always follow each pet parent’s care instructions, including feeding, walking, medication, and house rules. I keep a close eye on the dogs in my care and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet senior dog for all of his nearly 18 years. I fully understand that seniors need a little extra love and attention 🩵 I’ve also been the default dog and cat sitter for friends when they have needed it. I have experience giving medicine and eye drops for dogs. I’m also happy to learn any other medical care needs if needed! My little guy passed recently, so I’m just here to give your fur babies some love while you are away 🩵 I work from home, so I’m pretty flexible and can take breaks midday to walk and play. I’m available for boarding most work days and weekends. I live on a quiet street that is great for walks, and there is also an open yard for quick potty breaks. I have no other pets in the home and only take one client at a time, so your pets will have my full attention!
About: I've had dogs my entire life, from a black lab to an airdale terrier to a peekapoo, and I am the go-to dog sitter for friends and family. These days I'm mom to Coach, my 5-year-old chihuahua mix, who is my whole world. I love all animals and treat every pup like my own—plenty of walks, playtime, and sticking to their usual routine. Comfortable with senior care, medication, and high-energy dogs alike. Your dog will get the same care I'd give my own! I work remotely so my schedule is very flexible. I have a very flexible weekday schedule, so midday walks, playtime, and drop-in check-ins are no problem. I'm also available for dog walking and house sitting most evenings and weekends. Your pup will have plenty of company and stick to their normal routine! Your pup's comfort comes first. I'm a dog mom myself—my chihuahua mix Coach is my whole world—so I know how it feels to leave them in someone else's hands. I'll keep to your routine exactly, follow your rules to the letter, and send plenty of photo updates so you're never wondering how they're doing. Walks are always on leash in safe areas, on your dog's favorite routes.
“Michele was great! My cat, Piper, warmed up to her immediately, and Michele was very mindful of keeping Pipers schedule and routines. Would definitely book with her again”
“Charlie is great! Communicative, reliable, and independent. My cat, Bentley, was so chill when I got back—I could tell he'd gotten everything he needed and plenty of attention. I already rebooked! Highly recommend.”
About: He cuidado perros de diferentes tamaños y personalidades durante muchos años. Tengo experiencia con perros propios y también cuidando las mascotas de familiares, amigos y vecinos.

Trabajo por cuenta propia y tengo un horario bastante flexible, lo que me permite dedicar tiempo al cuidado de las mascotas. Puedo organizar mi día para realizar paseos, visitas y darles la atención y compañía que necesiten. Siempre sigo cuidadosamente las instrucciones de cada dueño y respeto la rutina de su mascota. Me aseguro de mantener puertas y correas seguras, supervisarlos durante los paseos y tratarlos con paciencia, cariño y mucha responsabilidad.

About: Hi! I’m a Columbia University graduate student trying to get by. I have taken care of a large range of animals including hamsters, geckos, cats, and dogs. Friends and family have both trusted me with their furry friends. I treat animals like they’re my own (I spoil my cat son Hugo) and make sure to receive the best care! I work a full time job, but I am available on all evenings after 5 and mornings before 9am. I am also available during all hours of the day on weekends.

“Jungmin did an amazing job taking care of Bobo and our home while we were away! She was incredibly caring, responsible, and attentive to Bobo’s needs. She went above and beyond by helping clean and vacuum the apartment and spending extra time making sure Bobo was comfortable and well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Bobo was in such good hands. I truly appreciate her kindness and dedication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes through my own pets and by helping friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send photo updates after every visit because I know how reassuring it is for pet parents to see their furry family member happy and well cared for. From energetic puppies to shy or senior dogs, I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following each owner’s instructions to ensure their pet receives the highest quality care. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule, allowing me to dedicate quality time and attention to every visit. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each pet owner’s needs whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra playtime, I’m committed to being dependable, punctual, and making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I pay close attention during walks, use secure leashes and harnesses, and always keep a clean, calm environment. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I strive to provide dependable care, clear communication, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Ever since I was born I have lived with a dog in the house. Savannah then Dusty then Chloe, and now Kylo. I wake up and feed Kylo, get him fresh water, take him for walks, and play with him. When my dad goes away, I stay at his house and watch his dogs, Winston and Guinness. I also used to work for a dog groomer watching, bathing, drying, and brushing dogs. As of right now, I am unemployed so I am able to work my schedule around yours. This may change in the future, but if a job comes along I will try to uphold any agreement made. I will ensure that the time your pet spends with me, they will feel loved and cared for. As I love almost every animal I meet. I know how to take care of them and will make it my responsibility they get the care they need.
About: Passionate animal enthusiast with 12 years of veterinary experience, beginning in doggy daycare and advancing to veterinary care. I offer safe, compassionate, and dependable pet services. I typically work 40-hour weeks, but I always have plenty of available time to spend with any pet in need. I cherish the love of all furry friends! * I offer daytime house-sitting which allows me to spend as much time as needed with your pet without overnight stay for personal reasons. My Shih Tzu has always received compliments on her friendly behavior and obedience training. She's allowed to roam freely in the home b/c there are no perishable items accessible to her. It’s important to ensure that all fur babies are respected and their needs are met.
“Masie was extremely helpful for the entire month I was gone. She accepted my booking with 2 days before my month long trip and kept me updated the entire time. In top of that, part way through the month, she accepted a change to the request to add additional days per week due to concerns. She was extremely helpful for peace of mind and the photos she sent every visit helped more than I would’ve thought!”
“Cameron was the first over night sitter I’ve gotten for my kitten, Ziggy. It couldn’t have been any better!! She was kind, communicative, sent photo updates and made me feel at ease. I also came home to a pristine house after a weekend of travel and that was so lovely!! I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

Mia did a phenomenal job taken care of my two kitties. Excellent communication, incredibly responsible, and followed the care instructions perfectly. Everything was perfect. Her love for animals is clear through her dedication to providing high quality care. Strongly recommended! Thank you Mia!
Aisha is a great communicator and has taken care of our cat several times now. I love getting daily updates and cute photos. I feel comfortable going away and know that I can trust Aisha to provide excellent care and of course give lots of snuggles to Georgie. Thank you 😻
As always, Gwen was incredibly attentive to our two cats and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable and well cared for while we were away on a long vacation. She even made thoughtful suggestions to improve their comfort and kept us updated throughout our trip. Gwen is extremely communicative, responsible, and dependable, and we always feel at ease knowing our cats are in her care.
Alexandria took care of my two kitties for 2 weeks while I was away. It was my first time using her and I was very nervous. However, when she came over to meet me and the kitties I was very impressed with her. She answered all of my concerns and had a lot of good questions of her own about my cats and their care. I felt very comfortable letting her into my home and taking care of my cats. I was not disappointed! She sent me detailed notes and photos every day, and my kitchen was as neat and clean as when I left. If you are looking for someone trustworthy and good with skittish cats, I HIGHLY recommend Alexandria!
Ayanna saved the day for us! We were halfway through a 2 week trip across the world when our original sitter became injured and was unable to continue looking after our cat. We had a crazy time difference and scrambled when we woke up to the messages from the original sitter, realizing our cat hadn’t been visited that day. I found Ayanna and she immediately accepted our extremely panicked last minute request. Within an hour or two, she grabbed the keys from the original sitter and went over to visit and feed our cat. She was a LIFESAVER and we felt so relieved. For the next week we got daily updates, pics, videos, and she kept the space tidy. I would highly recommend Ayanna to look after your pets!!!
Charlie took great care of our two kitties and made sure they got plenty of attention while we were gone. She sent lots of pics and left the apartment in spotless condition despite a few accidents from our guys. She was great at communicating and was very punctual. Would highly recommend!
Alixandrya was amazing!! She made my trip all the more enjoyable knowing I could count on her for taking care of Minnie and he actually warmed up to her and came out to say hello & chat with her! He is very shy and cautious but her kindness and understanding helped him come out of his shell Thanks for taking good care of my boy!!
Meredith is incredible. She’s great with both of my cats, even though one is very friendly and the other is definitely more particular about people! She’s always on time, communicates really well, and gives the best updates while I’m away. You can tell she genuinely cares about the cats and takes her job seriously. I always feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter!

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 .

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.

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.
