“Carrie is great! What I appreciate most is how much she communicates. She takes the time to write a nice note and include tons of pictures every time she stops by to let me know exactly how my kitten is doing, and it gives me peace of mind while I’m away on vacation!”
“Nicole was an amazing cat sitter! She was incredibly proactive, responsive, and genuinely caring throughout the entire booking. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she truly cared about Pang, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Asha took great care of my cat Stu while he was boarding at her apartment over the Thanksgiving holiday. She was communicative and reliable! Stu clearly loved her from the photos I received of them snuggled up together. 🙂”
About: I’ve grown up around animals all my life. My family always had 1 dog and 1 cat, and my extended family had a variety of dogs/cats. I volunteered walking shelter dogs in college and feel comfortable with any size/type/age. Just let me know how your pet does best on walks or for visits and I can accommodate them! I work full time during the week, but get to work from home at times and have a flexible schedule. Weekends I am free and love to be outdoors and active. My apartment does not allow pets but at home I lived with a cat and dog and am familiar with making sure they get the attention needed - playtime, always having a full water bowl, bathroom breaks or a clean litter box, fed on time and to their liking, etc.
“Tiffanie was so attentive with our cat! He felt comfortable with her right away, it’s great to know he’s with a friend while we’re away! Would definitely recommend and will use in the future”
“The. BEST. Rover. Out there! Do yourself a favor and book Lauren for literally anything you need with your pets. She is so understanding, flexible, and incredibly nice, you’re guaranteed to have a good experience and feel confident your pets are in good hands. Thank you, again!”
“Paul was responsive and incredibly communicative. I needed to take a last-minute international trip. Within a few hours, we were able to schedule a time for Paul to take care of Clementine. I am definitely using his services again the next time I have to travel.”
“Aly did a wonderful job house sitting with our cat. She was very patient with him and made sure he got his medicine when needed. She was also very communicative and left the house in great shape. I would book again with her!”
“Shannon took great care of our cats! She was very responsive, detail oriented, and kind! She provided detailed reports and great pictures that helped us feel at ease. We’d absolutely recommend Shannon!”
“Shereen takes great care of my cat and makes it super easy to book with her. She’s super responsive and attentive, and makes me feel comfortable traveling because I know my baby is taken care of.”
About: Hi! I’ve been raised with dogs and puppies since I was a child and played a primary role in taking care of them. After a lifetime full of dogs, I now have a cat! I love animals and would love to take care of your pet while you’re away. I am available for pet sitting and dog walking Monday through Thursday. I am a full time photographer, so I have the flexibility in my schedule to work whenever you need. Please reach out so I can meet your furry friend! I’m a full time photographer, so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to take care of your pet. My work is generally in the evenings, so I have the entire day free. I am committed to both the safety and comfort of both you and your pet. I always request strict guidelines in advance to make sure I can do exactly what your pet needs. I interact as minimally as possible with your home, only using the space to play with your pet and nothing more.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life. I grew up with both small and large dogs with all kinds of different needs. Truly, I understand that each pet has its own unique needs which I’m patient and willing to understand. As an adult I’ve owned/lived with 3 small dogs (pug, 2 cavalier King Charles spaniels) and a cat so I’m fully capable of taking care of multiple animals at once. I’ve cared for both my cavaliers from puppy through their seniors years including one being in a wheel chair his last year of life so I have experience with dogs in all years of their life. My cat was adopted as kitten so also familiar with cats during all years of life. Over the years I’ve done pet sitting and walked dogs for friends and neighbors in addition to my own pets. My work schedule is flexible with a blend of in person and remote work so we can discuss a schedule that fits your pets needs. Safety, trust, and respect are extremely important to me. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, keep pets on their normal routine, and maintain a calm, safe environment. I treat every home with care and respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I believe clear communication builds trust, so I provide regular updates and photos and am always available if you need to reach me. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet and your home are in good hands.
“He was amazing! So attentive with my cat. Sent multiple daily updates with photos and videos. Monitored her eating/drinking levels really well and notified if he had any concerns. Awesome sitter!”
“Sophia was so great with my cats! Even though they are super shy, she got them to play with her and she was also very flexible when my flight home got delayed. Would definitely recommend!”
“Maryn was the perfect pet sitter. She looked after our three cats for an extended period of time with such care and consideration. She was so helpful, respectful, and communicative. We could tell the kitties were happy, well-fed, and given lots of scritches and attention. I could not recommend Maryn enough - we will definitely be using her in the future :)”
About: I lived with and took care of my sisters 2 dogs (1 husky puppy and 1 adult husky/german mix). I then moved to Austin and wanted to continue having dogs in my life, so started up a Rover account! I continued sitting through Rover during my two years as a Masters Student at Georgetown, and am glad to be able to continue sitting after graduating! I just graduated from my Masters program, so am very available as I continue to job hunt! My weekends are very busy due to weddings out-of-state, but during the weekdays I am available! Before confirming on a booking I go through an extensive list of questions regarding anything from leash reactiveness and appropriate ways to approach your dog, to walk routes that are familiar and comfortable for your dog. I always want to ensure my sitting periods are as stress-free and “normal” as I can make them.
“Michael was so patient with my shy and reactive kitty. He tried multiple methods to engage with her and knew when to give her space. He followed my instructions very closely and I was very comfortable trusting him with my pet.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myer
Stacy was wonderful! She took such great care of Louie while we were away, and it was such a relief knowing he was in kind, capable hands. She was reliable, thoughtful, and attentive to his needs, and I really appreciated the care she put into looking after him. It’s not always easy leaving your pet behind, but Stacy made the whole experience so much easier. Louie was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!
She was SO great!! She took such great care of my cats. She gave them their meds every night right on time. She sent lots of pictures as well! She sent pictures of the litter box, water fountain, and food at every check in as well, which was a great peace of mind. 12/10 recommend!!
Carrie is the best. Scout is an outgoing and social kitty who loves nothing better than a great play session and she gets this from Carrie. Carries daily report and "action shots" show paly and pets. When I return Scout is sleek, chatty and happy. Her behavior shows she's had a good time while I'm gone. Thanks, Carrie for your excellent care. You are a star!
Kate is amazing! I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and her kitty care! She not only went above and beyond taking care of my baby, but she was able to take a shy, scared kitty and allow her to come out of her shell. What an amazing person and sitter. Animals know when someone truly cares and Kate does! Thank you Kate for taking care of my sweet girl and putting this nervous mama at ease! You are special beyond words! 💕
We can’t say enough amazing things about Sarah!! We are so grateful to have found her. She took such great care of our two kitties - it made us so happy to know they were in such good hands while we were away. Sarah was incredibly communicative and kind - she sent us so many updates and pictures and her Rover cards always had fun little anecdotes about the cats that made us smile. Our cats absolutely loved her too! In addition to looking after the kitties, she also took great care of our house, bringing in packages and even taking out the trash. We would recommend Sarah a hundred times over 😊
Another wonderful experience! We have used her several times now, and she continues to be absolutely fantastic with Ollie. This weekend, she was incredibly accommodating with our schedule, making multiple drop-in visits to ensure Ollie was well cared for while we were away. It's such a relief knowing he's in great hands, and we truly appreciate the time, attention, and care she gives him. We couldn't recommend her more highly and will absolutely continue booking with her!

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
