“Mia was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals — my cat warmed up to her quickly and was clearly comfortable in her care. Mia was reliable and punctual every single visit, and she kept me updated regularly with photos and notes, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond with little extra touches that showed real attentiveness. I'd recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter.”
“Super sweet. Definitely my new designated cat sitter. My kitties love her!!! Attentive and communicative. You can tell she loves all the pets she watches.”
About: I’m a passionate, reliable pet caregiver with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals. I grew up surrounded by pets and have turned that lifelong love into a career, working with pet families, in pet retail at stores. I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm, patient companion, I’ll provide attentive, loving care and treat them like part of my own family. I have a lot of spare time on my hands so I could use that time to care for your pet! I am your pet Nannie around the corner. I have experience dog walking, so I understand how it goes. I also have lots of experience playing with pets. I have a huge passion for pets
About: Hi neighbor :) I am an animal lover who has cared for cats and dogs for two decades in both suburban neighborhoods and busy city environments. At home, I'm a mom of a kitten and an older cat, so I'm well versed in caring for pets with different energy levels, routines, and personalities. I also have experience following special diets and detailed feeding instructions, and I know how important it is to stick to the routines that keep pets healthy and comfortable. My goal is to make sure your cat feels cared for and loved while giving you peace of mind. I'm excited to meet your furry companions :) I'm currently a graduate student at Northwestern, and my schedule is highly flexible. I will fit your pet's care into my day from morning through evening. I treat every client's home with respect. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages during each visit so you can be assured that your pet is happy and safe while you're away.
About: Hi! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, and I’ve had pets all my life — so I know how much pets mean to their families. My girlfriend introduced me to Rover, and since then, I’ve been all in. I currently walk up to 10 dogs a day and board around 2 dogs each month, and I truly enjoy every minute of it. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs long walks or a shy cat who just wants a quiet companion, I treat every pet like my own. I know how important trust is when it comes to pet care, and I always go the extra mile to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I’d love the chance to meet your pet and give them the care and attention they deserve! Pet care is a major part of my daily routine. I work in real estate, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of control over my time. This flexibility allows me to dedicate consistent blocks of time each day to walking dogs, doing drop-in visits, and boarding pets comfortably in my home. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust always come first. In my home, I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I make sure there are no hazards within reach, keep any unfamiliar pets separated as needed, and provide plenty of space for relaxation, play, and personal time. I follow any routines or rules you provide so your pet feels comfortable and secure—just like they would at home. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep your pet’s schedule consistent, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m always attentive to their behavior, energy levels, and comfort to make sure they’re safe and happy throughout the visit. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or quiet companionship, I’m committed to providing a trustworthy, low-stress experience for both you and your pet.
“Agnieszka took great care of my cat in her home while I had to work and maintenance was in my apartment. She kept me up to date and asked questions about the health of my cat, which made me feel like she truly cared about him.”
About: I have had cats, dogs, and fish for the past 15 years. I have boarded, walked, and sat many animals including the ones listed above. I have also done feedings and administering medications. I always like to get detailed notes and a walk through of the care you need so the pets are well taken care of throughout my time with them. I am currently open to any times and days. I am in school and am doing it completely online and asynchronous. I can work with you separately to figure out the best schedule. I am always wanting a walk through and detailed sheet of paper describing schedules and everything I need to know. I will also send frequent updates including pictures. I have administered medications before and ask to be shown how to administer so they don’t miss a day.
“Hannah has been an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. They are always quick to respond when I reach out about a job, consistently show up when they say they will, and go above and beyond every time. Hannah is an incredibly strong communicator, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It’s clear they genuinely care about both the pets and the people they work with. I would highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy to care for their animals.”
About: I offer in-home pet sitting and dog walking for local clients, providing feeding, exercise, and companionship for both dogs and cats. I'm comfortable administering medications and following individualized care instructions for pets with specific health or dietary needs. I've built lasting relationships with repeat clients through reliable scheduling, attentive care, and regular updates on their pets while they're away. I manage all bookings and client communication myself, balancing multiple pet-sitting clients alongside full-time work in animal care. I have flexible availability throughout the week, including daytime hours, which means I can stick to a pet's normal routine without rushing, whether that's multiple walks a day, mid-day feedings, or checking in on medication schedules. I'm able to be consistent and present, so pets get the same reliable care and attention every visit. I treat every home like it's my own, securing doors, following the pet's normal routine for feeding, walking, and litter boxes, and sticking closely to any medication or care instructions. My clinic experience helps me catch early signs if something seems off, and I know how to let anxious or senior cats warm up at their own pace rather than forcing it. For dogs, I double-check leashes and collars and stay attentive on walks. I keep owners updated throughout, so they always know their pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for.

I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to adjust to your pet’s routine whenever possible. I prioritize safety and comfort at all times. I carefully follow care instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets are supervised. Having 2 dogs and 2 cats has taught me how important patience, routine, and trust are when caring for animals.

About: Experience with large/XL breeds, bully breeds, working/high energy breeds, reactive and senior pups. Happy to provide your pup with structured and/or lax sniff walkies. Expert in freesbie, fetchies & tug- I have a working breed at home so very familiar with their requirements. Experience with senior pups, familiar with medication distributing, slow/wagon walkies, and all the extra lovings required. I currently work a full time job with plenty of flexibility which includes working from home. I am able to provide walkies/check-ins Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Weekends can be arranged upon requests ahead of time. At my house, walks and play time are typically structured and we always have a paw clean up routine when returning home. When someone is caring for my pet, I love to get photo updates as I’m sure all pet parents would. I have a good amount of experience with reactive/nervous pups and especially on walks so I’m aware of how to handle triggers. Attentive to outside factors- other dogs garbage/food on the floor, etc

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Glenview
Jiayi was terrific! She kept Me updated with excellent photos of the cats and chores completed, feeding, litter, taking in mail. She was very thorough with daily communication. The Cats are happy and calm and the house is as I left it. I would definitely use her again!
Rosy was great! Both of my cats need pills and one is particularly adept at hiding in general, so we were worried about how he would react. She tried various strategies to get a pill in him, and even though it was unsuccessful in the end, I really appreciated her tenacity. She sent pictures and very reassuring updates after each visit.
Tiffany checked in on my cat, Tofu, while I was gone on a week long trip. She was very communicative and sent lots of cute pics. She brought an issue with our automatic feeder to our attention and went above and beyond to help us trouble shoot the issue. Tofu loved Tiffany and we will be booking her again in the future
Helen was awesome! Our cat is very anxious and requires a transdermal medicine and Helen was able to handle our cat really well. She was able to give proactive updates about her. She was thorough in understanding our cat's needs. We will be booking with her again for sure!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
