“Laurie was outstanding when taking care of my cat Gracie! She played with her and gave her a lot of attention. She also took great pic of her and sent them to me which I loved! Will definitely book her again! Thank you so much Laurie 😻”
“Misti took care of my two cats twice a day for two weeks. She did everything I asked and sent extra notes and pics at each visit. She is a great communicator! Misti even got my shy cat, Paris, into a great routine early on and was able to pet her by the end of the two weeks. I called Misti the cat whisperer for her ability to win Paris over. The house was perfect and cats were happy when we returned home. I will definitely call upon Misti for pet care in the future!”
“Billie Jo is wonderful!! She was always on time and kept me informed of how my Peanut was doing. It's such a reassurance to know my kitty was so well cared for while we were gone!”
“Theresa was absolutely amazing with my two cats! Every day she gave me detailed updates on what she did and sent plenty of pictures! I could tell my cats were having a lot of fun.”
“Sally was amazing and so accommodating! She took excellent care of my sassy cat while I was out of town. Her thorough communication was reassuring, and I’m so thankful that she was willing to go the extra mile to help care for my baby.”
About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to gerbils, hamsters and fish. Even as a young child I was primarily responsible for most of the routine daily pet care. I'm a trained CNA with applicable caregiving skills. I also have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer having walked the dog and played with them as well as socializing the cats. I'm currently self employed as a home care aide and wish to take care of animals in between assignments or during days off. I do not have any responsibilities that would interfere with me taking care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard stake. I live in a townhouse with an open grass backyard. I regularly take my dog to The Liberty, MO Stockdale dog park and can take yours there too if that's your preference. If you wish I can walk your dog as many times per day as you prefer. My neighborhood has paved sidewalks and walking paths that I routinely use to walk my dog daily. I have one cat and one dog and each get along with other cats and dogs very well but should there be any unforeseen issue, I can put your pet in my spare bedroom. I also own a wire dog crate for large dogs. I can crate your pet in your home or my home if you wish me to. I will take care of him or her in whichever way you prefer. I do not crate my dog but I did as a puppy to facilitate his potty training. My dog sleeps with me at night as does my cat sometimes. Both are friendly and well socialized but again, I can put either in a spare room or your pet if necessary. Both my pets are up to date on their vaccinations and they get a monthly pill for flea and tick prevention. I can do everything from long or short walks, taking them outside for potty breaks, administering food or medicine, playtime, etc.
“Riley is the sweetest! Great at communicating and very thorough and sweet. Provided great updates for our sweet cat throughout the weekend. Will definitely reach out again for cat sitting!”
“Virginia was great with my cat for a week! I was a little nervous about leaving her for the first time, but she sent daily pics and updates which really eased my nerves! Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was younger than 10, with experience ranging from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide companionship for their pets. I’m comfortable with multiple breeds, different energy levels, and unique routines. My priority is keeping pets safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind. Whether it’s exercise, cuddles, or special care, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Hi, I’m Madeline! 🐾 I’m a stay-at-home mom to my sweet son, who recently started school, and I’m looking forward to filling my extra time with something I truly love: animals! I’ve always had a big heart for furry friends and believe every pet deserves patience, love, attention, and plenty of cuddles. 🐶🐱💕 As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. Whether your pup needs a walk, a potty break, playtime, or just some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help! My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. 🐾💗
“Stephanie was amazing with my cat, Keumto! She was incredibly thoughtful and went above and beyond to make sure Keumto was well cared for. I loved getting her daily photos and updates, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared about Keumto. Thank you so much, Stephanie! I would definitely book with you again!”
“Samantha was great! She took care of my 2 particular cats very well. She sent adorable photos and kept me up-to-date on their activities, moods, and more. My house looked perfect when I came home. I’ll definitely book again :)”
“Joey made leaving town without my fur babies worry free! Both of my dogs are in their senior years and he took excellent care of them and met them at their activity level! His love and passion for dogs is obvious and I will definitely be booking with him in the future!!!”
“Alyssa was wonderful, highly recommend! She was able to board our cat overnight on short notice and was very communicative throughout the booking and his stay. She sent multiple pictures and a video and was able to give him his medication. She had a private room set up for him with a litter box, toys, and a cat tree. I felt so comfortable leaving him in her care and will be recommending her to all my cat friends!”
“Brittney did such an amazing job checking in on my little man and keeping me updated on how he’s doing while I was out of the country. She’s an amazing cat sitter and I couldn’t be more grateful for all the love and attention she showed him! Would definitely recommend! ?”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I got my first dog (not including family dogs) when I was 18. I currently have a house full of dogs and volunteer at the local shelter in my free time. I have fostered dogs, taken dogs on dog days out and walk dogs at the shelter. I find myself happiest when I am around fur babies! Because of this love for dogs, I have been exposed to all types of dogs. I use Rover myself for our pups and know it is a great community focused on taking care of our four legged friends My dogs at home are a huge part of my everyday schedule. I am lucky to have a flexible schedule and able to incorporate them into my everyday routine I am trustworthy and reliable. I will make sure to get all details to ensure I am taking great care of your furbabies as I would my own

I was nervous to have a stranger take care of my cats for the first time, thus far I have relied on exploiting friendships. Laurie came and met my cats as well as providing photo/text updates while I was gone. Her attention and thoughtfulness regarding my cats who have very different personalities was excellent. And she even managed to ensure they got their daily meds ( even the one that hides).
Theresa is a gem! She has watched over our cat twice now. Could not ask for a better person and caretaker for our cat. Plus, she takes care of us, the mom and dad, just as well with detailed daily messages and pictures. Theresa does everything she commits to and more. We've taken our dogs with us lately, but in the future for short trips we will definitely ask Theresa to help with our dogs as well. We are so fortunate to have been connected with Theresa. We've returned from our trip today, and our cat (nicknamed Mr. Handsome thanks to Theresa) is doing fabulously! He's received fresh water, medicine, food, treats, playtime, a clean litter box daily, and most of all, love while we were gone.
Dani took wonderful care of our cat, Dali! She was reliable, kind, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Dali was well cared for and comfortable with her. We really appreciated her attention and care, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with Dani again. Highly recommend!
Caitlyn was a wonderful pet sitter for our two cats! They were relaxed and happy to see us when we got home due to Caitlyn's work with them each day. She was very good about communication and sent us a check in with pictures and how the kitties were doing. She played with them and made sure they got plenty of treats and pets! I really appreciated it, this is the longest we had left our cats ever and having a young kitten and a geriatric cat, problems can come up and I worry. She made it all very easy and I would definitely recommend her if you need a reliable responsible pet sitter!
It took Sebastian barely a moment to get comfortable with Samantha! From the meet and greet, immediately demonstrated confidence and competence in knowing how to approach and interact with him, and watching him warm up to her more and more with each visit reaffirmed that I made the right choice as a first-timer to Rover! I will be requesting her services again without a doubt.
Everything went great! Erica was super with our cats. Everyone seemed healthy and happy when we got home. Eric was able to adjust easily to our slight adjustments in schedule and was available for late evening meds for my old lady cat. I really enjoyed getting to see pics of the cats during the visits.
Misti is the BEST sitter I we’ve ever had. Our pets love her! We were gone for two weeks and she took great care of them. Attentive to their needs, took them on long walks, and even updated us on some eating habit changes. Our little void wasn’t eating as much as he usually does, she immediately let us know and we figured it out together. She is a GEM!!!

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.

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 .
