“Emma is so friendly and a great cat sitter! She was very through in asking about their care and treated them well. My cats can be rambunctious but she did a good job at separating them for feedings and playing with them. She also sent great update photos with the rover cards throughout their care. Would highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care and loved all ages of dogs my whole life. From owning them to watching the neighbors and friends. I have also worked in a professional setting for about 5+ years and have had experience caring for all different breeds and their specific individual needs. In addition, I have training experience with Penn Vet Working Dog Center as well as some classes I attended at a training school! I’m grateful for all the experiences I’ve had and all the ones waiting to be had! I have currently care for 3 different types of animals (cat, gecko, and turtle!) I did have a dog as well however she sadly passed recently. I am able to crate dogs as well as provide medications and keep up with dietary restrictions. I am able to walk as well as play and spend time with the pups! For cats I am able to scoop litter and give as many or as little cuddles as the cat may enjoy! I’m good with feeding as well as administering meds to cats
“Jenna looked after my 2 cats while I was away. She was very patient with my super anxious kitty, and made him feel comfortable enough to come out of hiding. I will definitely book again in the future.”
“Sarah is amazing! She is incredibly thorough, patient, and professional. She asked thoughtful questions about my cat that even I hadn’t thought of, and my cat was completely calm and comfortable around her. She also took amazing photos of my baby and was very attentive to everything happening in the house. She noticed and communicated anything that might need my attention, which gave me great peace of mind. I truly appreciate how caring, observant, and responsible she is. I highly recommend Sarah!”
About: I am looking forward to hosting dogs in my house. I have a 4 year old dog I recently adopted. He enjoys having other dogs come to visit! I'm a teacher so I am home weeknights and weekends to care for and play with your dogs. Your dog can sleep in my room or can be crated if that is preferred. I am also excited to explore my new neighborhood with dog walks in the evenings. I have recently moved to a new home that has a small front yard. There are trails nearby that I can use for dog walks.
About: I’ve loved and been around animals since childhood. Growing up, my family had both cats and dogs. As an adult, I now have 2 cats of my own. I’m very passionate about human-animal connection. I am currently a graduate student taking night classes two days a week. This is something I’m hoping to fill my spare time with :) I view and treat animals with the same respect as I do people. Pets need not only the necessities, but a high level of emotional attention.
About: I have done dog/cat sitting since I was a teenager for family, friends, and neighbors. I have taken care of all different types of dogs of different ages and needs. I currently have a 6 month old puppy so I am used to that stage as well! I am at school most weekdays but can always do evenings 7 days a week. My schedule on weekdays during the day varies but I always have time available. I am very clean and neat and will not disrupt your living space or personal items when caring for your precious pets. I can follow whatever safety and security measures you prefer to access your pet.
About: Hi! My name is Maura. I’ve owned and cared for dogs for most of my life. I also have experience caring for cats, birds, chickens and horses. I’m an experienced house and pet sitter— I’ve cared for both grown animals and little ones alike. I’m comfortable providing company, keeping the animals on a schedule, and even continuing training schedules while you’re gone. I can provide references if needed! At the moment I’m in-between jobs, having just completed a summer internship abroad. So most of my day is spent job searching. I like to get outside and go for walks or runs on the daily, so oftentimes I’ll take my dog with me. I am also a moderate early-riser. I’m naturally up around 7:30, and I’ll usually feed the pets first thing. However, I do get up earlier if that’s the schedule the pets are on! When it comes to taking care of the pets in your home, I usually try and follow the established routines that they’re already used to. Throughout the day, I’ll take breaks from whatever chores or work I’m doing on my computer to spend time with the pets, playing or walking outside. Sometimes we just sunbathe ☀️ while I read a book in the late afternoon. It depends on the pet, but generally it’s just a lot of spending time together!
“Danielle is amazing! Super communicative and helpful. She gives useful tips and recommendations, and will go above and beyond too. Would book her again and again (and we have).”
About: I've been walking dogs of all sizes for about 7 years now in different ways and I have to say I've never met I dog I haven't become immediate best friends with. I love to take the dogs on their favorite trails, and play if they still have energy after. They will always have water provided and a treat at the end of each visit, with lots of pets and snuggles in between. With my previous experience I feel comfortable with any size dog, and can handle different behaviors as well. Though every visit can seem repetitive, if something unexpected occurs I know the best routes to handle any situation that may come up. I think it's important to think on your feet, even if you only have two. ;) I’m currently working part time as a dog walker and working towards finishing my undergrad degree in college. I am doing classes online this summer. I do not have the ability to care for pets at my home at this time. My current living situation is unsuitable for strange dogs to come stay.
About: I've lived with cats my whole life and love them all! I currently have three who are all rescues/foster fails. I fostered kittens and a special needs cat for several years and currently volunteer with a rescue as a cat socializer. I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule to visit your cat, and am home most days for boarding or kitty daycare. I work from home, so have plenty of time to spend with your cat. I have a room dedicated to cat boarding, so they will not have to interact with my cats. I have a room in my home dedicated to cat boarding. Your cats will be separated from my own cats and will be secured so that they can't get outside.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three dogs at my family home. Through both personal and professional experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of how to care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I worked for two years as a daycare attendant at a doggy daycare, where I was responsible for supervising and caring for multiple dogs at once, leading daily walks, and maintaining a safe, structured, and fun environment. I’m comfortable working with puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between. Beyond basic care, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. You can feel confident that your dog will be in attentive and loving hands with me! I am currently a senior at Boston University. I have classes three out of seven days of the week. I am pretty flexible with my time, and have a car so I can get around quickly and easily. I can easily fit pet care into my weekly routine, and when I am out for class its only for an hour or two at a time. This allows me to commit to the necessary time to caring for your pet on a daily basis! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get regular bathroom breaks throughout the day. I also prioritize exercise, playtime, and companionship so they’re not left alone or bored. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior to make sure they feel secure and happy in their environment. My goal is to create a safe, caring, and stress-free experience where your pet feels right at home.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my pet for a few days knowing that Heather would be checking in on him. She shared a daily update and prior to our trip she stopped in to meet our pet and make sure she knew exactly how to best take care of him.”
About: Nice to meet you! I just graduated from Temple University. I grew up with cats and taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs throughout college. I work from home, so I can take care of your fur baby with ease! I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility. I can do daily check-ins or overnight stays for anyone with an anxious fur baby! Every visit, I will greet your cat with a gentle approach. If you leave me their favorite toys and treats, i’ll make sure they are active and rewarded! I work from home so I can do overnight stays for any anxious fur babies!
About: I've always had a love for animals. People began trusting me with their furry family members in 2017 (I was around 16 at the time). I'm comfortable with some messes and helping pets that may need some extra assistance. I grew up in the Endless Mountains of Sullivan County so I don't mind traversing outside with your pet if that's what they enjoy. I am also always up for snuggling on the couch with a book or show as well if that's more your pet's vibe. I am currently a teacher in New Hope, PA. This makes it hard for me to assist with pet care during the school day, unless your pet is stable on their own for around 9 hours. I do not currently have any pets of my own. As an empath, I always prioritize trust and safety. I always try to make animals in my care as comfortable as possible. If that means allowing some extra fur on my bedsheets, or sitting alone on a chair while they lay near a distant window, so be it! My main goal is always to keep your pet as happy and healthy as possible in the best way for them.
“Brittany was amazing! Basqui was in great hands and I can tell she enjoyed her company when I returned. She had great communication, was punctual and shared pictures throughout her time with Basqui. I would highly recommend Brittany.”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I have always had pets myself and I have pet sat for my friends and family for years. I am punctual and detail oriented. Whatever you and your pet need I will provide. I will always show love and respect to the pets I care for. I work at Mom's Organic Market 4 days out of the week so I have plenty of open days to take care of your pets. I live in an apartment and have a cat so my place would not be ideal for pets to stay over. Maybe another cat would be ok. I am open to that.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—cats at my mom’s and dogs at my dad’s—so caring for pets is second nature to me. As a kid, I became the neighborhood pet sitter, offering my services to families in need of a trusted hand. With years of hands-on experience, I offer more than just feeding and walks. Whether it’s training puppies, managing senior pets’ special needs, or providing a comforting routine for anxious animals, I bring patience, love, and expertise to every pet care situation. Now, I’m excited to get back into doing what I love—giving pets the care they deserve while you’re away! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pets the attention they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s regular playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddle time, I’m always available to meet your pet’s needs. With my home-based routine, I can provide consistent care, ensuring your furry friends feel safe, loved, and well-cared for every day. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort for every pet, whether they’re staying in my home or yours. If your pet stays with me, they’ll have access to a spacious yard and a peaceful walking trail right next door—perfect for daily walks and playtime. Inside, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can feel right at home. If I’m caring for your pet at your place, I make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely, respect your home, and create a safe, stress-free atmosphere. Whether at my home or yours, I treat each pet like family, providing love, attention, and careful supervision to ensure they’re always in good hands :)

Emma was absolutely amazing! She stopped by daily to care for our cats and give one of our fur babies her daily pill. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail, so I didn't have to alert the Post Office, and maintain the litter boxes. It was so nice not to have to stress or worry about their care while we were away for the week. I felt completely comfortable giving Emma access to our home. Would definitely book Emma again the next time we go on vacay. Thank you Emma!

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.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
