“Jasmin was amazing! She came in all visits as scheduled and sent us updates every time! The pictures were adorable and we could see our cat was being taken care of and super happy with all the love from Jasmin! I highly recommend her and we will definitely book her for our future trips. Thank you so much Jasmin! You’re the best 😊”
“Shen-Huan provided excellent care for our senior cat. The pics and vids were daily confirmation that we could relax. Princess Abigail had her own room, a chair by the window, gentle playtime. Definitely recommend!”
“Susan was great! I felt safe with her taking care of my cat while I was away overseas. She was communicative the entire time, very responsive, left me daily notes on time, and my cat seemed to have had a great time with her. Would book again :)”
“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!”
“Mikayla was great with house sitting my cat! She hung out with him, sent updates/pics, even put on this YouTube playlist he likes for the voices, and I felt sure he was cared for—even though I had to be gone for several days and he can be a nervous boy. Thank you!!”
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 35 years, I have dedicated myself to caring for dogs and cats. My pet sitting experience covers everything from the joy of playing and bonding with active pets to the gentle care needed for senior animals and those with special needs or medical conditions that require medication. 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.

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! 🐾💕
“Nicole housesat for our 4 cats and a snow storm hit she went so far as shoveling our walkway. We have developed a great deal of trust in her and our babies are always well cared for and seem to have developed bonds. Highly recommend Nicole.”
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!

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
