“Courtney was amazing with my cats. She was in contact with me and kept me informed of everything that they were doing. She’s very kind and caring. I will definitely be using her in the future.”
“This is the second time we've booked with Makenna, and I'm yet again a happy customer! She's done a house sitting and drop in visit with fantastic through updates. I feel relieved she's taking such great care of my dog and cat.”
“Randy is a fantastic pet sitter! He was so friendly and came over ahead of the drop-in visits to meet us and our animals and make sure he knew what to do. Would definitely rebook!”
“Jamie took the BEST care of our two cats while we were gone. We had just moved and needed to leave our cats for 5 days. She was able to coax our “scaredy cat” out of his hiding place, and kept us updated with lots of sweet photos. I definitely will use her again and highly recommend her services!”
About: I am a Registered Nurse by trade. I have been a Cat Mom for over 24 years, including caring for senior cats who had oral and topical meds. We had dogs growing up and I enjoyed walking, playing and cuddling with them. I am Red Cross Certified in Cat & Dog First Aid. Being self-employed, my schedule is easily adaptable to fit clients' needs. I allow for enough time between clients so that our time together is not rushed. I will respect your home & follow your care instructions completely. For walks, I'll ensure your pet is safe while getting the amount of attention and activity they need.
“I can’t say enough great things about Katelyn. Not only did she accept a very last minute drop in request— but she went above and beyond every time she was at my home. My cats warmed up to her and by the appearance of all the drop in photos they really enjoyed her company. She was reliable and thorough with her check ins which I really appreciate while being away. Beyond that, she took care of my trash and my dishes as well, which was unexpected but greatly appreciated. Can’t wait to book with her again in the future!”
“Lauren is wonderful. It doesn’t matter if we are leaving for the weekend or a week, we know our cat Regan will receive the attention and quality care we expect. Lauren honors her assignment. She is always punctual and stay longer than required. She is a great communicator, very detailed which we love. Can’t say enough about the services we receive and the love she shows Regan.”
“Brittney was great. My normally shy cats instantly took a liking to her, and she took great care of them while I was out of town. Would definitely hire her again.”
“Our puppy loves Isabella! She goes above and beyond when visiting Rocky, playing with him, and taking him for a walk. We definitely recommend Isabella and will continue to use her service in the future.”
“Molly took great cat of my 3 cats! She has a background in pet health care & is skilled in giving medications, as well as pet behavior & health issues, which put me at ease in leaving them for a few days. She is very reliable & great in communicating & sending updates. The cats were well taken care of while we were gone. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Rachel was the perfect sitter for Shangela. She sent lots of photos, was extremely professional, and it seems like Shangela was well cared for while I was gone. I Will likey book her again.”
“Elinor was amazing! She just love cats! The way she connected with our boys was just impressive! They loved her since the first day!! For us it was a relief, knowing that they liked her! Every time she played with them, gave a lot of pets!! That makes a difference. And she took care of my plants and tomatoes :) I wont hesitate to book with her again! Cause I know that our boys will be in good hands!!!! I only have good things to say about her!!! I appreciate all she has done while we were gone on vacations!”
About: I have owned and cared for more than 50 animals in my 38 years 🥰 I currently have a 3 year old cat, a 2 year old cat, and a 1 year old cat. I had 2 dogs over the course of almost 19 years (12 years old and 16 years old when they passed). I grew up with skunks, cats, dogs, hamsters, lizards, and more. I also have been fostering with local rescues for more than 10 years. Overall, I am just a big animal lover and find joy in watching other people's fur babies 🥰 I work from home full time, which allows me to have a flexible schedule. Evenings, weekends, and overnights can also be arranged. If you need anything overnight I prefer to stay at your home with your pets so they are comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. Let's discuss your needs! I am happy to follow whatever instructions you have for me to care for your furbabies! I know each pet is different. Generally, dogs go out to potty several times a day, as well as need fresh food and water daily. Cats also need fresh food and water daily, plus cleaning their litter boxes at least once a day.
“Nothing to say here that the other reviews haven't said here -- Matt looked after my kitten (11 months) Iroh and was an excellent communicator. Will definitely be using his services again.”

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.
