“This is the second time I’ve had Emily take care of my cat and it’s so wonderful getting to leave town with total peace of mind knowing she is being taken such great care of! Emily is always responsive, and goes above and beyond during her visits! You won’t regret leaving your pets in her care - she is awesome!”
“Kaitlyn was a lifesaver when we were out of town and my other Dog Sitter fell through at the last minute. She is incredibly professional, always sends very through updates on all of her drop in visits, and she takes the best pictures. Highly recommend!”
“We absolutely loved Jailee! She was so easy to work with and communicated with us the entire time during our trip. She treated our cat like her own family and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to take care of our baby!”
“Sherry took such great care of my boy. She really made me feel at ease leaving him and she made HIM feel relaxed and happy during their drop in visit. She played with him and spent extra time while I was out for an extended period. Plus she understood all my concerns and was flexible with my changing schedule. So happy we found her.”
About: I always joke to friends that we have a zoo! I am truly an animal lover through and through! We currently own 2 horses, 3 Great Danes (“horse-lite” haha), 2 special needs cats with cerebellar hypoplasia (the wobbles), a green cheek conure and a ball python. In addition to dogs and cats, in the past I have also owned an iguana, hedgehog, ferret, red-eared slider turtle, goats, llamas and probably something else that I’ve forgotten. I mention this only to say that I am not scared of helping out with whatever animal that you have. I am comfortable administering medications or helping with special needs animals. I am also comfortable helping with horses and livestock in addition to household pets. Let me know how I can make your time away from home as worry-free as possible!! I am currently at home full-time and I am available to drop in to feed and interact with your animals multiple times throughout the day. I follow your instructions for how you’d like your pets contained during the times when I would not be at the house. I only walk animals at your instruction.
About: I have taken care of my own and others pets for 50+ years. I have 3 indoor dogs of my own and have become the official ball thrower to the smallest of my pets because she loves to play fetch. I also care for the Hummingbirds yearly that visit my yard from March till September. I have a full time job but can feed, walk and care for your pets needs after 5 on weekdays and all weekend beginning at 5 on Friday evening. I will care for your pets with as much love as I do my own. Pets are our family and need to be treated and loved as we would our own. I will honor all likes, food choices and instructions given regarding the animals in your home.

I enjoy taking dogs on walks and taking them to the dog park, and always making sure they have enough water and are safe. I will treat your pets like family because I would want the same for mine. I have 10+ years of experience in pet care so I hope I can help you out. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I am looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends soon!
About: I grew up with 3 big dogs who were truly my best friends <3 I loved to take care of them including walking, feeding, and bathing them. I now have a cat and dog of my own who are everything to me. I am currently in between jobs and will have all the time to dedicate to your animals. I have limited availability Sunday-Thursday before 12pm but can work about that if need be. I will fully respect your wishes for your pets as long as it is respectful to your pets. My dog loves her crate and I have an extra crate as well.
“Sherri was absolutely fantastic! Our Poppy is still so small and requires a great deal of care and attention, and Sherri was exceptional in providing us updates, the best pics, and most importantly loving our Poppy in our absence. And dog owner would be so fortunate to have Sherri care for their fur babies! She is the best!”
“Thank you to Kylie for taking care of my little senior Beau. We felt very comfortable with her and though it was just a one day of drop ins we are so appreciative of her helping us out while we were away. Thank you for keeping me informed of the visits.”
About: Hi! My name is Kelley, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and even horses, and spending time with animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more shy and reserved, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, communicative, and respectful of both your pets and your home. I know how important routines can be for animals, so I’m happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, crating, bedtime routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel at ease. I also spent time working at a veterinary office, which gave me additional experience and knowledge in animal care and behavior. While I’m not a vet tech, that experience helped me become more attentive to pets’ needs and more comfortable handling a variety of situations. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them with patience, kindness, and love as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I currently work part-time while earning hours toward my therapy license, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be attentive to your pets’ needs throughout the day. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to check in consistently, maintain your pet’s normal routines, and provide dependable care whether that includes walks, feedings, playtime, medications, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I care for pets with patience, attentiveness, and respect for the routines they’re already familiar with. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, crating routines, and any other specific care instructions. I know being away from their owners can be stressful for some pets, so I strive to create a calm, comforting environment and give them plenty of attention and affection. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and always aim to leave things clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. Communication is important to me, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away.

Whether it’s a leisurely walk or a drop-in visit, you can count on me to show up, pay attention, and treat your pets — and your home — with the utmost respect and care.
“Taylor was great with Sully. I booked with her very last minute. She came over on a Monday to meet Sully and Tuesday she walked him 3 times while I was away all day. She kept me updated and I came home to a very happy dog.”

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
