“Andrea was great! Our 2 Kitties seemed to jive with her and both of them have tendency to be shy. It can be complicated to find our apartment sometimes and she was able to follow the instructions we left her with no problem. I would definitely recommend her services to other animal parents!”
“Sydney was great!! She showed up on time and was patient and caring toward my dog who often gets anxious around new people. She communicated with me throughout and let me know how he did on his walk with her. I’d absolutely book with her again!”
“Mackenzie has always watched our feisty, 7 yr old cat & she was very quickly able to warm up to our new, little Daisy! She watched the girls through the holidays & it was obvious from the photos how much they love her!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve raised and puppy-trained dogs, have experience with exotic animals, and understand that every pet is different. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m free all day Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I only work a short evening shift, and on weekends I work until about 4:30pm. That leaves me with lots of time to make sure your pet gets the attention, walks, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My apartment community has a fenced dog park for safe outdoor play, along with plenty of sidewalks and green spaces for walks. While my apartment is on the smaller side, your pet will have lots of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and one on attention during their stay.
“Jessica was wonderful, she was organized, punctual and caring to my pets. She kept in constant communication and shared photos of my dogs. Her services were greatly appreciated.”
About: *I ONLY TAKE ONE CLIENT AT A TIME* *DOGS MUST BE CRATE TRAINED* I've cared for dogs for most of my life, including my own dogs as well as my client's dogs. As a housekeeper for many years, I was the natural choice when my clients needed a pet sitter. Their pets became like my very own. Now that we no longer have a dog in our home and so I enjoy caring for my client's "borrowed" dogs while they are out of town. Hablo español. My husband and I work part-time. Our schedules allow at least one of us to be home all day so your pet will be closely monitored for their safety. I have a fenced-in yard and no other pets in my home. I require a meet & greet before the booking to meet your dog and for you to meet me to make sure we are a good fit. For our safety as well as your dog's safety, I require proof of current Rabies vaccination. At this time, we do not accept more than one client at a time. This is for your pet's comfort and safety. We require a meet & greet with you and your pet before confirming any boarding visit.
“Kayla was amazing to have for our 2 cats! She gave them love and treats, and was always on time. She did amazing, would certainly ask her to help again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs/cats my entire life. Pets, but most particularly dogs have brought joy to my life. I currently own two golden doodles who are ages 3 and 2. They are the highlight of my life! I am always here to take care of other dogs to ensure their happiness and keep them company. I want to ensure your pets happiness by giving them long walks! Each pet is different and I will attend to their needs in whatever way to ensure that they are taken care of. I’m available during the weekends from 7:30am-8:00pm. I can be available on some weekdays with a heads up notice from 6:30pm-8pm. I am currently available to walk dogs on the weekends Saturday and Sundays. I am sometimes free during the week! Mostly free on weekdays from 7pm-10pm I have two dogs myself. I love taking them on daily walks. I try to give them three 30 minute walks and love taking them to the dog park.
“Kristen is by far the best sitter we have ever had for our cats. A total cat girl and you can she actually loves our cats. She is overly thorough and has a lot of pride in her services and it shows. We are so grateful for her flexibility and willingness to step in when we are away.”
About: I have taken care of dogs as well as cats since I was 10 years old when I got my first pet a small dog named bandit. Since then we have welcomed two wonderful cats into our home who I took care of until I went off to college. When I started to drive I got the opportunity and trust of students and parents at my school to watch there dogs while they were out of town or on vacation. However, when I went off to college I was unable to keep at it. Until this year that is. When I was recommended by that same family to watch some other dogs that were in my area. They travel a lot for softball mostly on the weekends so it was a good fit. I am ready to now expand into new territory here on this app! I currently am a full time student at Palm beach Atlantic university. If you read this. This is your disclaimer. This is only part time and I do love it but recently people do not realize that I am only human. I have been so stressed out recently trying to please everyone but I can’t. My main job is being a student so I will not prioritize my services over my schooling. If you are booking me over a time that school is off. I may have some sort of job especially during the summer. If you want someone who will be at the house all day every day I am not the person for the job. I will be there the majority of the day but it is important to me that I spend time with my family and that I focus on my schooling too. I am going to try to build up some services in WPB this year. I will have mostly afternoon and evenings free. In the morning I have classes for the most part. It really depends on the day. I could also do the weekends. I go to college close to my home so I do travel back to my hometown Port Saint Lucy a lot. If I am going home I will block out those days in my schedule. My calendar on the app will reflect my school schedule. I look forward to meeting you! Animals are a huge part of my life at the moment. I have been house sitting , drop ins, and dog walks recently. I have decided to stop doing house sitting for any new clients because it has become too much for me. I am going to more focus on drop-ins and walks. If you welcome me into your house I will care for your animals like they were my own. It is important to me that your animals are well taken care of and I will try my best to make you happy with my services. Just know that your animals mean the world to me. And that every animal is important no matter how big or small. If you have things I could improve on or you had a good experience with me I would love you to leave a review. It really helps other pet parents who may need some guidance 😊
About: I’ve grew up with animals since I can remember. I had to stop myself from brining home every animal that needed a home haha. Being around animals so often, mainly dogs and cat has taught me not only how to properly take care of them but also understand them while building a loving and trusting bond. Yolenny is the founder of a dedicated pet care service called Moos faithful hounds LLC. Her inspiration to Create this business was inspired her profound love for animals and in memory of her French bulldog, Moo Friend. She believes every animal is unique and deserves personalized care. My passion for animals and the drive to begin training blossomed as I cared for both my dogs, Nala and Moo. However, Nala my Labrador was what sparked my interest to start training. Through Nala, I learned the foundations of dog training. Over time, through formal courses and hands-on experience, I discovered a true calling: connecting with each dogs unique personality and needs, so I can help them thrive. As a military service member, my mission is to bring my love, knowledge, and experience to every pet I care for, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and understood When I provide my services, safety is always my priority. Safety protocols can be different for each pet. With that being said, I always communicate with the owner to understand and adjust safety protocols based on each pet's needs.
“Excellent sitter incredibly caring in detail my dogs loved having her around. Also incredibly flexible after our flight was canceled. She was able to watch them an extra day so thankful to have her.”
“Isabel put me at ease taking care of my senior cat. She sent adorable daily updates, took in our packages and even called us when our electric litter box stopped working to troubleshoot fixing it. she is a true professional and animal lover - our cat is shy and immediately let her cuddle her and play!”
About: I have over five years of experience caring for dogs through Rover and for family and friends. I’ve looked after all kinds of pups from playful puppies full of energy to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and comfort. I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my schedule since I work for myself and set my own hours. I’m pretty flexible and always make time for the dogs I watch. Whether it’s walks or playtime, I can adjust my day to make sure each pup gets the attention they need. I make sure every pup feels safe and loved while in my care. I follow each owner’s routine feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so they feel right at home. I give plenty of attention and snuggles, make sure they get gentle exercise, and keep their space comfortable and cozy. My goal is for every pup to feel happy, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up with 3 pups of my own who are back home in Philadelphia while I’m in medical school! My roommate of 4 years had a senior cat of her own, so I am well versed in the needs of both cats and dogs. :) I’m currently in my 3rd year of medical school doing my rotations throughout the Palm Beach area! Dropping in on some furry friends or spending the night with them is something I’d love to be able to do when not in the hospital :) I’ll treat your pets like my own! They’ll get all the hugs, kisses, and snuggles - whatever they need. Safety is my priority and they will be treated like family.

I’m so grateful my friend recommended Susana. I was very nervous to find a sitter I could trust so I can resume traveling. Susana was very sweet and easy to communicate with. I felt I could trust her right away! I now feel more comfortable leaving Baby Girl in good hands. I can’t wait to have them be good friends in future visits!! I recommend Susana to anyone who fears for the care of your pet. She is truth worthy and knowledgeable. BOOK HER!!!
I recently went out of the country and I cannot thank Margaret enough for the incredible care she provided for my kitties. Leaving Vader, Gray, and my Outdoor Crew is never easy, but Margaret made the entire process stress-free. What I appreciated most was her exceptional communication; she let me know exactly what was going on with them every single day. Getting those consistent updates provided such peace of mind while I was away. Margaret was professional, reliable, and clearly gave them so much love. I came home to very happy, relaxed pets. I highly recommend Margaret to any pet parent!"
Aline was wonderful with our cat Star. She watched her for a few hours and was attentive, kind, and very easy to communicate with. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and made sure Star was comfortable and well looked after the entire time. We really appreciated her reliability and the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Aline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Alexa is amazing!!! She not only came to rescue when we needed last minute help but went above and beyond to take care of my cats. I really appreciate her communication, photos and that she even cleaned up when it wasn’t asked of her! Will definitely have Alexa help watch my little angels again asap!
Andres was an amazing cat sitter! He followed all instructions carefully and treated my cat with great care. I truly appreciated how reliable and attentive he was throughout the visit. I’m especially grateful he was available last minute when I needed to be away, and I would absolutely book him again! Thank you!💖
Evan was awesome with my two cats. They loved him and appreciated his playing. Evan provided extremely thorough and detailed updates to me in each of his visits and asked any clarifying questions he needed to. I would highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for a sitter in the area.
Lizzy is terrific. She is not only very pleasant, but reliable and most important…my two cats liked her and they don’t particularly like anyone other than their mom! I had a package arrive that required refrigeration and she shot over to put it in the refrigerator. I will be calling on her again soon. Thanks again Lizzy, you’re the best! :)

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.
