“Nadine is always so great with my pets! She has watched my rabbits on multiple occasions and is always responsible and communicative with me. When my rabbit had some stomach problems she administered medication through a syringe and dropped by early the next morning to monitor her! Nadine is the greatest!”
“Sarah was great with our kittens and sent photos during every drop in. I left her detailed instructions and all was followed :) I highly recommend booking her and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Elise was amazing! She was able to check on my kitties on such short notice and was so sweet and helpful. Also great communication. My kitties definitely loved her and look like they had a blast in their pictures. I will definitely be booking again, thank you Elise 💕😊”
About: Animals have always been my passion. I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats through pet sitting, fostering, and animal rescue. I’ve worked with puppies, kittens, seniors, shy pets, and animals with special medical needs, so I’m comfortable following medication schedules and providing extra care when needed. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm, dependable companion, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My background in animal rescue has taught me patience, reliability, and how to recognize when something isn’t quite right with a pet. Communication is important to me, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or medication, I’ll work with you to make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I’m available for weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays with advance notice. My home has a securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. I also share my home with one friendly dog, cats, and chickens, so animals are truly a way of life for me. With a background in animal rescue, I’m experienced caring for pets of all ages, including seniors, puppies and kittens, and pets with special needs or medical conditions. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine and personality. Safety, patience, and compassionate care are always my priorities, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
About: My background includes a lifetime of multi-pet experience, from growing up with dogs and cats, years of trusted pet-sitting for family members, and being a pet parent raising my own dog and cat for the last six (6) years. I'm experienced in managing the delicate needs of kittens and providing the gentle care required for senior dogs. Whether your pet needs a walk or a comforting check-in, I am happy to lend a helping hand to keep them safe, happy, and relaxed while you are away. I currently have a four (4) day work week, allowing me provide drop in visits and walks for your pet on a predictable schedule Friday-Sundays. Whether you may be travelling or need an extra helping hand, I'm happy to step in! Your trust, your pets safety and the security of your home are my highest priorities. During every drop-in visit and walk, I ensure all doors are secured upon entering and leaving, maintain strict leash safety outdoors by avoiding distractions (reactive dog owner!), and provide photo updates for your peace of mind.

I began helping with feeding and walks at age 9, and during my summer breaks, I took on more responsibilities. By age 15, I had several years of experience caring for up to 2 dogs and 2 cats during short overnight jobs. My love for animals has never wavered, and I will treat your pets as if they were my own.

I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, medication, or caring for senior pets, I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s needs. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is being cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits really well into my schedule, and I always make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and love they deserve. My availability can vary depending on my work schedule, but I’m always happy to work with owners to find times that work for both of us. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’m always excited to spend time with them! I always treat every pet like they’re my own.

I’ll also send plenty of updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in good hands.
“Mahaam took care of my cat over the past five days and she was fantastic. She reliably cleaned the litter box, fed my cat and even cleaned up when my cat threw up, which I appreciated more than she knows. Her updates were reassuring, her care was thoughtful and it was clear she genuinely wanted my cat to feel comfortable while I was away. I’d absolutely request her again the next time I’m traveling.”

About: I grew up living with animals in our home, different kinds of pets. Whether it be a turtle, rat, hamster, cats and dogs. I love taking care of animals and giving them the fun and purrfect day they deserve. I’ve saved a dog once from the street and kept her in home and took her for walks until I had to take her to the shelter. I’m working full time at a corporate company in Irvine but I’m home by 2:30 PM M-F Your fur babies will have my full attention as it’s their time. Their time is just as previous and important as everyone else I usually let my cat go outside with a leash to make sure I have her on sight and I can take a quick action if anything happens.
“This was my first time using Rover and needed someone to check on my cat while I had to leave for the day. Monique was friendly, easy to communicate with and kept me updated the whole time. You can tell she really cares about animals and enjoys helping people with their pets. I knew my cat was in good hands and I will definitely be rebooking with her for future trips. Thanks Monique!”

Elise just watched my two cats for 5 days while I was on my honeymoon and she was amazing. First of all, she appreciates my cats are hilarious, but most of all, she is very communicative and so nice and pleasant to talk to every time. She goes above and beyond and we would only want to work with her going forward!
Meamea was wonderful! She was very attentive to the care of our cat. It was comforting to have someone check in and spend quality time with her. She even was attentive to outdoor decorative scarecrow that was blown by the wind and made sure it was placed in a secure location. If you plan to go away and need someone to take care of your fur baby, then look no further and book Meamea!
Teri has been great for the entirety of my overseas trip. She was very communicative which I greatly appreciated and let me know when there was any change going on with my cats while I was away. We then worked together to try and find a solution before I got home. She was extremely respectful of my house and even tried to help me out with a mail situation, which she absolutely did not have to do. She sends a great amount of pictures for each visit which was lovely to receive while I was away. She is a very sweet person, great at communication, is very attentive to the animals in her care as well as respectful of the house she is visiting. Just overall a really great rover sitter and I'll be using her again for my next trip!
I’ve been using Lily & Jason for dog walks for a while now and have always had a great experience, but this weekend they also did a drop-in for my two cats while I was at a wedding and my dog was boarding. They fed them, spent time hanging out with them, and made sure they were happy and taken care of while I was gone. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing I have people I trust not only with my dog, but with my cats too. They’re reliable, caring, and genuinely great with my pets. I’m so grateful to have found them and would absolutely recommend them for both dog walking and pet sitting!
Samantha was very professional and thoughtful throughout the entire process. She responded promptly to the booking request and was highly communicative as we set up the meet and greet as well as the drop in visits. Samantha took excellent care of the kitties, who were happy and relaxed around her. We are so glad we connected with Samantha!

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 .

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