“Shen-Huan was excellent! She gave Squeaky lots of attention, fed him his favorite food, and got him several new toys. He was not lonely during his stay with her! She clearly loves cats and the work she does. I will recommend her to anyone who needs a cat sitter, and will definitely use her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Parvin, a data scientist who works from home and a true cat lover. 🐱❤️ I had a wonderful cat named Piorot for a year. He was a beautiful Persian and British mix, and he completely made me fall in love with cats and their unique personalities. Although I don’t currently have a cat of my own, I have experience taking care of my friends’ cats while they are traveling. Since I work from home and live by myself, I can provide a quiet, comfortable, and peaceful environment with plenty of attention and companionship for your cat. I would be happy to host your cat in my home, or I can provide drop-in visits at your home while you’re away. I know how important it is to feel confident that your cat is safe, comfortable, and loved when you’re traveling. I’ll treat your little angel with lots of love, patience, and care, just as I would my own. 🐾 I’d love to meet you and your kitty and help make your time away a little more worry-free! ❤️ I work from home as a data scientist, so I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give your cat plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for both cat boarding in my home and drop-in visits, including weekdays and weekends. I live by myself in a quiet, clean home, so your cat can enjoy a peaceful and comfortable environment without the stress of other animals. I understand that every cat has a different personality and routine, and I will carefully follow your instructions for feeding, litter care, playtime, and any other needs. For drop-in visits, I will treat your home and your cat with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
“Dymond was wonderful with my cat! Very responsive, caring, and easy to communicate with. This was my first time leaving my cat since adopting her and I felt very comfortable doing so knowing Dymond would be checking in on her!”
“Allison did drop-in visits to feed/check in on my young and energetic cat while I was away for a week. He was well taken care of. Allison gave me daily picture and updates, and I particularly appreciated these updates including notes about checking for a potential health issue that flares up on occasion. I would certainly recommend her and would use her again in the future!”
About: What truly sets my service apart is the depth of my experience and my advanced medical skill set, which aligns closely with the hands-on training of a veterinary technician. For over 30 years, I have dedicated myself to specialized feline care, handling everything from playful kittens to fragile senior cats with complex health conditions. Caring for animals is not just a job for me—it is my entire life, my primary focus, and how I structure my days. Because pet care is my full-time devotion, my daily and weekly routines are built entirely around the schedules, medical timelines, and comfort of the cats in my care. Cats thrive best in their own familiar environments. To eliminate the severe stress of boarding or travel, I work exclusively inside your home. My safety protocols are designed to keep your home clean, secure, and running smoothly according to your exact instructions, while fully respecting your private property and making sure your kitty has a wonderful, fun time while you are away.
“Delaney has been so good with my fur baby. She is so reliable even when I need her last minute. She’s very intentional with her time and I for sure don’t know what I would do without her care and consistency.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for pups of all personalities. I grew up with dogs and regularly care for friends’ and family members’ pets. I’m also comfortable giving oral medications when needed. I currently share a very energetic 2-year-old Jack Russell Terrier with my roommate, so I’m no stranger to zoomies, walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles! I’ll treat your pup like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. 🐶💕 I have a flexible schedule that makes pet care easy to fit into my week! I’m off work every Friday, so I’m available for dog walks essentially any time that day. I’m also off on weekends, making me available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. For longer-term or extended stays, I would need a week or two of advance notice so I can plan around my weekend schedule. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works best for both you and your pet! 🐶🐱💕 I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me or in their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of attention and affection. For in-home visits, I’m happy to care for pets in the comfort of their own environment and make sure they get the same love and attention they’re used to. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾💕
“I can’t recommend Samantha highly enough! From start to finish, she was dependable, friendly, clearly cared about my two kitties and took the time to build a real bond with them. When the app wasn’t accessible, she was incredibly accommodating and kept in touch over email without missing a beat. I received videos and daily photos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’ll absolutely be booking again, and I’d trust her with my kitties anytime.”
“Britney is absolutely wonderful she walked my dog many times and he was always very happy to see her she talked to him and greeted him with a gentle smile he always looks forward sure coming over Britney also took wonderful care of my cats getting them to eat even though they they they didn't want to because they were upset I was gone I hardly recommend her she is prompt and reliable an extremely trustworthy”
About: For Cat Sitting - I have two adorable cats of my own, Timon and Pumbaa and grew up with two, as well. I understand their perks and how a cat earns your love! Taking care of them is second nature to me and I know I could be a great help. I have more experience with indoor cats and understand they need playtime when their owners are away! For Dog Walking - I grew up with one of the craziest! Ringo was his name-o and he was part husky, border collie, maybe even part chow? A total mutt. I have recently taken care of neighbors dogs who range from French bulldog to German Shepherd. I love spending time outside with the pups and would love help expend their energy with a good walk! I am in the midst of a major career pivot. I used to work in television production in NYC for 17 years, became a teacher, and currently going back to school. I can absolutely fit daily and/or weekly walks into my routine. Mornings and evenings are not a problem. I have two cats of my own and they are super loved and taken care of! For the dog parents, I love them and I love a good walk!
About: As an only child, I always wanted a cat. When I was 4, we adopted my cat sister and the rest has been history. Throughout my life, cats have always been present. Now, as I have my own family, we have expanded to have a brother sister duo that are my babies. I would love to come care for your fur babies as well Between my two boys and my two fur babies, we have a busy day full of love and play. Rocky and Rosie are always up with me for an early breakfast before I’m out the door. They always great me and their big brothers as we come home and love to play at night as we make dinner. They are the ultimate snuggle bugs at bedtime. I will work with you to establish a connection with companion to gain their trust. I love to know their routine, their likes and their dislikes. We will work together to make your home a safe environment while you’re away, in addition to safe surroundings (should you have a dog that needs a walk).
About: I'm semi-retired but really like helping people out. I know having pets can be stressful when you are away. I am here to make it less stressful and let you enjoy your vacation or focus on your work while you are away. I am semi-retired so I am flexible most days of the week (within reason as I do maintain a tech consulting firm). Weekends are possible, again, with enough notice and based on my own travel schedule. My wife and I have two cats, and when people come to check in on our cats, we expect them to be attentive to the whole house. Is water running? Does anything look amiss? A pet sitter is your eyes and ears...even if you have cameras all over your house. Having a dependable person visit your house lets you enjoy your vacation or give you peace of mind during the workday.
About: I've had dogs my whole life since I was 12 years old! I have lived with senior dogs and puppies and both together. Dog's truly are man's best friend and can heal the hardest of heartaches. They love hard and unconditionally and I will return that for every dog I care for :) Currently my schedule is wide open! I do play social sports throughout the week on different days but can easily be worked around for whatever needs :) I have two cats. They keep to themselves a the majority of the day. Will go outside with a harness to walk around the property
About: I've had a love of dogs (and all animals) for as long as I can remember. Though I haven't been blessed with a dog of my own, I often care for my cousins' dogs and cherish every minute spent with them. One of them is a handsome mixed breed little guy named Juno and the other a Great Pyrenees named Rosco. I take them on walks several times a day, feed them, and play with them to their heart's content. They are my furry nephews and I love them so much! I'm a fast learner and a detail-oriented person. I will adjust to your dog's routine quickly. Their safety and well-being is my priority and I will take care of your fur babies with as much attentiveness as I would my own. We will have so much fun and they will get all the love and cuddles they desire! I currently have open availability so I can care for your pets whenever suits you best! I can take them for walks, do drop-ins, or house sit while you’re away. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and will leave it tidy for your return. I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while sharing their home with a stranger (soon to be friend)!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Germantown
Candice is absolutely amazing! She is so communicative and thorough, and I’m truly able to disconnect and enjoy my vacation knowing that my babies are in such caring hands. She pays close attention to their individual behaviors and routines and takes detailed notes so she can pick up on how they’re feeling and if anything seems different. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s not just stopping by to feed them, but is genuinely getting to know them and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. We feel so lucky to have found someone we truly trust with our kitties. I couldn’t recommend Candice more, she is exactly the kind of sitter you hope to find!
We’ve been working with Lynnette for several years now, and she has become an absolutely invaluable part of our pets’ lives. She is wonderful with both our cats and our dog — patient, gentle, and genuinely caring. What truly sets her apart is how she goes above and beyond her responsibilities. During one of our trips, we had a small water‑leak issue at home while she was caring for the cats. She notified us immediately, handled the initial cleanup, and made sure everything was safe until we could get back and fix the problem. Her reliability, kindness, and professionalism give us complete peace of mind every time we travel. We would hire her again without hesitation.
Sandra took wonderful care of my cats while I was away. She made sure they were well fed and gave them plenty of love and attention. My cats felt comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. I knew they were in excellent hands, and she truly went above and beyond. She was on time and followed every single instructions I gave her. I highly recommend Sandra to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.
We loved having Tim look after our cat for the week! He was so kind and patient with our very senior furball. On top of the time he took to give lots of love and playtime, Tim kept perfect track of meds and food. What’s more—was so nice in managing a few bouts of ‘tummy trouble’. We would totally book him again!
Anna did a drop-in visit for my 4 cats, including administering insulin to my diabetic cat. She was wonderful! Great communication! I had mentioned to her that I feed each cat in a different room, hoping, but from experience with other sitters, not expecting her to actually separate them. She did! I also really appreciate her putting the effort to go above and beyond what I asked. One example: During the meet and great, I fed my kitties, including adding water to their food. I mentioned to her that she didn't need to do that, but when she did the drop-in, she went ahead and did it anyways. :) I'm glad I hired her and highly recommend her!

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 .

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
