About: I’ve always loved animals ever since I could remember! I grew up around them and have owned many kinds of pets, with many different personalities. I am able to adapt to all pets whether they are energetic, aloof, couch potatoes, or shy, I am here to take care of them all! I love learning about every individual pets personality and will treat them just like my own! :) A little more about me is I am a current part time college student working towards a degree in nursing. My passion is making a difference in this world! I also currently work for a daycare in the infant room! I have always worked in childcare and I am a very patient and attentive person. :) I currently work part time so I will have time during the mornings and evenings every weekday! I am available for check ins (30 minutes-2 hours) daily and longer visits on the weekends! I will treat your fur babies as my own and make sure they are cared for just like you would normally. I love all animals and love getting to know their individual personalities! I am just getting used to this platform and want to help pet owners have a good experience with me so please consider me as a caregiver for you pets! :)
“Ben was wonderful with my little haus panther, trying to (and usually succeeding in) getting him to come out and play -- or, more accurately, do epic battle (in a playful way, of course; it's just my cat's MO/love language, lol). Lots of pics and videos. Nice to have a cat dad caring for my little guy :-)”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 10+ years of pet care experience — and a friendly Golden Retriever sidekick who loves making new doggy friends! I work from home 2 days a week, which means extra time for cuddles, playtime, and walks. I’m experienced with pups who need a little extra care, including those with medical needs like diabetes. Whether your dog needs a walking buddy or a cozy place to stay, I’ve got the love, time, and treats to make their tail wag! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I work from home two days a week, which gives me plenty of time for walks, play breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. On other days, I plan my schedule to ensure your pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I make sure every pup feels loved and well cared for. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, pups enjoy a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of supervised time both inside and out. I can easily crate if needed and always follow your pet’s specific routines and preferences. I'm experienced with dogs of all ages and stages — from curious puppies to wise seniors — and I make sure each one feels secure, loved, and right at home in a calm, structured environment.
“Courtney has been consistently caring for our greyhound for over 2 months, and she's incredible! She's always communicative, respectful, quick with responding to messages and booking requests, follows directions to a "T", and accommodates our needs. Most importantly, our pup loves her! Our normally anxious boy always seems so relaxed and happy after her visits. I can't recommend Courtney enough!”
About: Loving, caring home with dogs of my own. I've been a part time pet sitter almost all my life and my passion is dogs but lover of all animals. I can take care of any breed or size dog, no restrictions. There are no children in my home and everyone here loves dogs so them being comfortable here will not be an issue. I always have plenty of different kinds of toys and treats for your specific dogs needs. I can even help teach your loved ones a trick or two, should you be so inclined. My care is top notch and hard to beat! Pet care seamlessly blends into my routine because my daytime job is highly flexible. This open schedule gives me total freedom to dedicate blocks of time to walking dogs, completing drop in visits or checking in on boarding fur babies. While I am starting school in a few weeks, my classes only take up 2.5 hours on two or three evenings per week. This minor commitment ensures I still have maximum availability during high demand daytime hours, plus plenty of completely free nights each week for attentive overnight house sitting! When caring for the animals in your home, my main focus is security, cleanliness, and minimizing separation anxiety. I follow your household rules precisely, ensure all doors and gates are securely locked, and collect your mail or water plants upon request. Each visit includes fresh food and water, a thoroughly scooped litter box or yard cleanup, and plenty of one on one attention through focused playtime and comforting belly rubs!
“Jessica was so amazing with our babies, she made them so comfortable and they did great with her! I appreciated her care so much and would definitely use her services again!”
“Thank you Adam! We loved all the photos sent of our happy pups and kitties each visit! They spent time with each one, threw the ball, pet on them etc to make it a good experience for everyone! We will definitely have them again in the future 😊”
“Madison was so helpful with our pup that had an upset tummy all week. Really appreciate her caring and cleaning up as she did. Our little lady who is 15 loves to follow Madison around. Thank you, Madison!”
“Brooklyn did an excellent job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. She was reliable and communicated well. She was able to accommodate a last-minute request and extension. I highly recommend her to everyone.”
“Leslie took exceptional care of my cat, Sunny, while I was on vacation. From the beginning, she was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring. What I appreciated most were the regular updates and photos she sent, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to see that Sunny was happy, comfortable, and well cared for every day. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Simon was great with my pup, Jack. He came by for a meet and greet, and I immediately trusted him. I knew Jack was in good hands, and Simon reassured me of this on each of his visits. I returned home to find an happy dog and everything else as I left it. I highly recommend Simon; I will be using him again.”
“Thank you so so much! Your communication is always amazing and so much appreciated! My kitties love you and I always feel so at ease knowing they have you checking in on them when I’m away!”
“Shea is absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my Thena while I was away. Athena took such a liking to her, she was cuddling and showing all her tricks to her. She made Athena comfortable, she made me feel assured. She completes all the check lists, communicates well, clean, super sweet and loving! The perfect cat sitter! Will definitely reach out in the future!”
“Kelsei shares the right amount of information during her visits making sure you feel confident that your furry friend is in good hands and well taken care of. Our pup fell in love with Kelsei at the end of his week with her and we’ll love to have her back!”
About: I took a course at ASU for dog behavior to better understand animals and their behavior. I’m able to train dogs with small commands within hours. I have my own goldendoodle and will treat your pet as my own family! I’m a full time student with open availability throughout the week to help others take care of their pets. My schedule is very flexible to fit your needs! I like to care for animals in their own environment as they are more comfortable in their own space. Taking them out of their environment and will strangers can be difficult for them to adjust.
“Alex was perfect! She followed all instructions perfectly and kept us updated with each visit. We received plenty of pictures of our happy puppy. Would highly recommend!”
“Susan was amazing for drop-in visits for my cat, Delilah, during the holidays! She was very kind and knowledgeable (she even gave me a list of vets she recommends within the area since I had just moved out here and had not set one up yet). During the meet and greet she took meticulous notes about Delilah’s likes/dislikes as well as her daily schedule. While I was away she always arrived on time to visit with Delilah and sent me notes/pictures of my cats status. I felt like my cat was very safe with her while I was away. I highly recommend Susan and will for sure be booking her for any future pet drop-in visits!”
“Michelle was amazing, I wasn’t sure how to go about using this app, and she reached out to me to get everything started. We met up the same day and I gave her a walkthrough of my routine. She took fantastic care of my pets and updated me on everything, and took better pictures of my pets than I could ever take. I am grateful for the initiative that she took and the care she took for my pets!”

We set up a 30-min afternoon initial visit for Emily to come by and feed our 3 cats and bond a bit and she was great! Very communicative and got our very shy cat to come out and be a bit social - a major feat, which I think will only continue to improve with time! Will definitely book again. Thank you, Emily!
Love Kristine and Michael, as always! Our little kitty has gotten herself an autoimmune disease, and Kristine and Michael are more than willing to accommodate her many new needs such as hiding pills and following her around with food. We’re really appreciative to know that even when we travel, she will be well taken care of.
Madison has a very gentle nature that my cats were drawn to immediately. I trusted her because she is a vet assistant and has devoted her life to caring for animals. I was called to go on a business trip for 2.5 weeks, and Madison rose to the occasion and hung in there with daily updates and photos to keep me in touch with them while I was gone. The cats were happy and relaxed when I returned home and I am very grateful for her loving care while I was gone.
What a breath of fresh air Jessica is! She is kind, outgoing, trustworthy, and communicative. She did everything that was asked of her, and I knew my cat was in great hands. I never even had to ask for updates or pictures because she kept me informed throughout. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone, and I will definitely be using her again in the future.
Kiersten allowed us to fully enjoy our time away from home! She took such good care of my cats and dog, and went the extra mile to make sure that the home was taken care of while we were not here. We feel very lucky to have had her watch our kids, and can’t wait to have them babysit again!
Kelly has been caring for our two cats when we go on vacation for 7+ years. She is so kind and takes excellent care of them. Each visit she checks their water and food, cleans the litter boxes, and plays with them. The cats know her when she shows up. You can tell she really loves and cares for animals. She is flexible with our scheduling and has accept d last minute requests several times. I highly recommend Kelly!

Nicholas was awesome with both our dog and cat! We usually have some trouble with our dog getting anxious while we're away, but had no issues this time! He was happy on his walks and well taken care of. Our cat also enjoyed having Nicholas around, which we can't say for everyone. Nicholas gave detailed updates and lots of photos of our pets to keep us updated while we were away. This is the most confident I've been with anyone looking after our pets, and we will definitely be booking again!
I felt confident in Clarissa watching my babies upon the meet & greet. She exceeded my expectations during the visits while I was away! The pictures I received were all I needed to know they were enjoying every second of her company! Thank you very much for a job well done :)
Harmony was great!! She updated me daily with pictures of my babies! She was super responsive and definitely made me feel at ease leaving them. She even got Koufax (our shy guy) to come out for a treat! I came back and the house looked great and she was so sweet she even cleaned a pan I had left in the sink. Absolutely amazing sitter and I'm so happy I found 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 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.
