“Abigail was amazing! She was able to take care of our kitties on a very short notice. She was very communicative and took great care of our pets and home! She's the best sitter on Rover I've booked so far!”
“Nurra was wonderful with my two dogs! I made a last-minute request, and she was kind enough to accommodate it, which I really appreciated. She was professional, polite, and a great communicator throughout the drop-in visits. She even went the extra mile by taking the dogs for a walk. I felt comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend Nurra to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Chelsea was fantastic! We received daily communication, updates and photos of our cats. They were very well taken care of and we are very pleased. This was our first time using this type of service and it won’t be our last time with Chelsea. Highly recommend!”
“Nikki is amazing! She took really great care of our senior cats and our home. We didn’t even have that kitty cat cold shoulder when we got home, because she spent time with each one:) Nikki went above and beyond. You can tell she is a cat person! I highly recommend Nikki for your cat care needs.”
“WOW! Lindsey was amazing. More than amazing. Everything I could hope for in a sitter. Within 2 days she had my super shy girl sitting on her lap. This took my husband at least a year and a half to get to that point. She sent pictures showing the same shy girl playing with a wand without the other two cats butting in. They all loved her and from what I could tell, each kitty had equal play and loving. I came home to clean litter boxes, fresh water, happy cats, and a vacuumed house! She genuinely cared about my babies. I almost want to take trips just to have Lindsey come over and love on my cats ❣️”
“Christina did an amazing job of bonding with my cat. It gave me enormous reassurance while I was traveling to know he was being well cared for. Thanks a million Christina. You're at the top of my list when I'm traveling in the future.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I cared for a Golden Retriever, a Husky, and a Jackapoo, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I currently have four cats of my own, so I am also very comfortable caring for cats and understanding their unique needs and behaviors. Through the years, I have gained experience with feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, litter box maintenance, administering basic medications, and providing pets with a safe and loving environment. Friends and family have trusted me to help care for their pets while they were away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or simply someone reliable to check in on them, I am committed to providing dependable and compassionate care. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. On Fridays, I work from home and have flexibility throughout the day, including my lunch hour. I am available for evening walks and drop-in visits during the week, and I have open availability on weekends. I am committed to being reliable, punctual, and providing pets with the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care and will treat them as if they were my own.
About: My commitment to providing the highest level of care, combined with my love for animals, ensures that your pet will receive the best possible care while you are away. I am currently going to school for my Master's in Business and taking care of my mom, so I will have plenty of time, love, and care for your fur babies! Anytime or anyplace, I am here for you and your babies! By focusing on safety, trust, and a nurturing environment, I ensure that pets are not only well-cared for but also feel secure and loved, making their time away from their owners as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. 🐾🐾
“Courtney was a truly awesome pet sitter. She was very thorough, communicative, and considerate. I really am grateful for the level of care she provided for my cat, Coco. I hate leaving her, but knowing she was getting great care and engagement was really important. Courtney is a real pro and clearly loves animals. I will most definitely ask her to watch Coco when I travel again and would highly recommend her.”
About: I have taken care of just about every type of dog and most cats. I used to work at “Hallidays Pet Resort” in canton MI for years so I have lots of hands on experience. Super exited to meet you and your dog so go ahead and send me a request :) I work overnights so I am available any day from morning-evening, as long as your animal is okay on its own overnight I can do sitting for multiple days in a row I absolutely adore animals. Super experienced in animal safety and caretaking, I can also give medications as long as it is orally administered. I have a pit bull of my own :)
“Steph is the perfect pet sitter for my Gracie. She has a border collie just like mine so she is well aware of their energy levels and high sensitivity. You can tell Gracie loves when Steph comes over to visit her. Steph gets a lot of that energy out that is getting built up while Gracie is home alone and shows a lot of love for her. I know I can trust her while I’m away.”
About: I’m a ceramic artist, art teacher, and passionate animal lover. I have two wonderful dogs, Chispa and Puggy, who love meeting new furry friends. With years of experience caring for my own pets, I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets are in good hands. Whether it’s a walk, a playdate, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll treat your pets like part of the family! Pets always come first in my home. I love taking my dogs on hikes, walks, and puppy playdates. I live in a dog friendly complex with a park and have a small, private fenced yard and terrace, perfect for sunbathing pups! If your dog needs a bath, I’m happy to give them a scrub in the tub. I’m also known for making homemade dog treats. Let me spoil your dog with lots of love and care! I work from home full time, so your dog will receive constant attention and care throughout their stay. We only board small to medium sized dogs (under 40 pounds), but I’m happy to discuss any special exceptions. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities!

Rhonda was absolutely the best. She made our cat, Leo feel safe and cared for while we were gone for two weeks. She kept us updated after each visit and sent pictures to show us how well he was cared for while she was there. Thanks again Rhonda! We will use you again in the future. Loved the pictures ❤️
Sarah took excellent care of my girls. This was my first time leaving them. They are independent young cats, but have not been left alone. Sarah came before for a meet and greet and to explain what she does during her visits. I received updates and photos as well. We will definitely be requesting Sarah in the future. ❤️
Great experience working with Abigail! Even though we haven’t met in person yet, communication has been excellent.. very prompt, clear, and professional. She was easy to coordinate with and have made me feel confident and comfortable about my cats’ upcoming care.

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. 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.
