“Kelly did a fantastic job watching my two six month old kittens. She went above and beyond and cleaned the litter box each day without being asked. My kitties were very happen when I got home, and I know they loved Kelly. She sent lots of photos of them while I was away which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend using Kelly as your sitter! I will be booking her again in the future! Thanks Kelly!”
“Coleen went above and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and thoughtful. Her updates were detailed and reassuring. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I have about 8 years of experience caring for them. Growing up with my own dogs has taught me how to understand their personalities, routines, and the importance of providing them with patience, love, and attention. Over the years, I have also helped care for my family’s dogs when they needed someone they could trust while they were away. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, baths, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different and has their own needs, whether they love being active, playing, or simply relaxing with someone they trust. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every dog with the same care, kindness, and affection I would give my own ! I currently work a part-time job, but I am still able to provide reliable and loving care for your pets. I am happy to work around my schedule to make sure your furry friend receives the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need. I will always communicate my availability clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my priority, and I want to make sure they feel happy and cared for ! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether caring for them in my home or visiting clients’ homes, I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets feel safe, happy, and cared for!
“Maria is truly the best!! She has been spectacular with my two pups, both with very different needs and personalities! We have an older dog with medical needs and a firm personality and a younger pup that is high energy and low listening skills :) I cannot give a higher recommendation for Maria! She is kind, responsive, and most accommodating.”
“Yulissa is an amazing pet sitter. She took great care of our four cats, two of which are quite elderly. Because of different dietary needs for each cat and medications the instructions are quite elaborate, but that was no problem for Yulissa. She is an excellent communicator, and she made sure to give as a daily update. We would be very happy to have her take care of our cats again!”
“Heather is always an absolute delight to have watch our two dogs. They are so excited to see her, even though they are picky with their people! She spends extra time and gives them so much love.”
About: Hi! My name is Leah, I have had experience with all types of dog sizes and breeds. I myself have grown up with two sweetheart pitbulls, sadly lost both due to different types of cancer and old age :( (12 & 14). I now have a Shihtzu(2), and Yorkie(3) who are apart of my family! I pet sit a golden retriever on occasion when his parents are out of town! I love animals and am soon hoping to welcome a Maine coon to my family. I don’t have much experience with cats other than hanging with my boyfriends black cat, but I love them! I also have minimal experience with turtle sitting. I am an animal lover and am looking forward to caring for and meeting more animals:P I do currently have a 9-5 job, Tuesday-Friday. I am available all day on the days I am off or after work. to walk and look after pets! My doggies are family pets, they are well cared for when I am not there. I do not usually pet sit at my house unless they are well known to me and my family. My doggies usually sleep in my room or my moms room. They do not sleep in a cage. They are free to roam around my house but don’t like being alone so they are almost always with me or my family haha. They are walked 3 times a day.. once before work, once after work and once before bed. They are let out to roam in the back yard, supervised when I am gardening or just out there relaxing. I have a fenced backyard. That is my personal style of caring for my pets. I do understand that everyone has different rules and expectations with their pets & home and I am more than happy to follow every rule and instruction i’m given when it comes to caring for your pets!
About: I’ve owned dogs most of my life and consistently for the past 11 years — small or large, puppy or senior, I love them all. My own pets thrive on routine, so your dog will get consistent walks, feeding times, and plenty of attention while you’re away. I currently share my home with a pug and an 18-year-old cat, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels. Pug mom + cat whisperer offering a loving, low-key place to stay I work from home, so your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches — they’ll get plenty of company, attention, and bathroom/play breaks built right into my day. Pet care isn’t an interruption to my routine, it’s part of it. Your dog will get long walks through my beautiful neighborhood, plus supervised outdoor time tethered out front alongside my pug (my yard is unfenced, so all outdoor time is supervised). I’m happy to crate your pet if you provide one, and I’ll keep them on whatever feeding and routine schedule they’re used to at home.
“Leah was prompt with her check in and check out times and continually sent us pictures from each visit and an update as to what she did. On her initial visit to meet our 2 cats, one of our cats was a little moody that day and wasn't interested in meeting Leah. But by the second day Leah told us that that particular cat was her new "bestie". The cats were well cared for and everything was done that was noted to be done.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a wonderful experience working with Faye. We met Faye beforehand and we’re impressed with her ability to connect with our shy kitty right away. Faye was flexible with our schedule and followed our care instructions to a tee. We came home to a happy cat and couldn’t ask for more!”
“Coretta was an angel with our shy cat Harriet—Coretta had her sitting nearby for pets the very first day! It was easy to trust her with our cat and our home, and we can't wait to have her back again.”
“Rhianna goes above and beyond! She will care for your pets as if they are her own. She plays with them, give them loves and snuggles, even teaches them tricks! I would highly recommend her to anyone and will continue using her for as long as she’s available.”
“Mirella did a great job looking after our two, young cats. It was the longest we had been away from them and she did a great job taking care of them and following all instructions. She sent super cute photos and kept us updated about how they were doing. She even cleaned up after they got into mischief and made a mess. We're definitely going to use Mirella again in the future!”
“Desiree was outstanding! She was communicative, helpful, our pups liked her, and she even helped bring a package in for us while we are out of town. Would definitely re-book!”
“Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in to check on my dog when my usual help was not available. My dog was a little wary at fist but Samantha was great and made her feel comfortable. If I need services in the future for my dog, I will definitely reach out to see if she's available.”

2nd review coming in. This was my original booking with Chris, the second one was an emergency extension. But as I have said in the other one, Chris is a fantastic pet sitter who truly knows and loves animals. My furr baby was very well taken care off like we've never left and I will definitely come back to Chris at any point i need a pet sitter! Top marks!
Chris was wonderful! I can’t say enough good things. My cats are very shy and he had them literally eating out of his hands on day one. He kept me informed with photos and texts and was so gentle and kind. I felt completely safe and full of trust that he had them comfortable during the heatwave that hit this week. He even did some random house tasks. He is incredible. Book him. Pay him. Tip him. It’s more than worth it.

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.
