About: I love both dogs and cats, I currently have a wonderful cat, Louise! I grew up with a golden retriever and a cavachon! I have dog sat for several different breeds, including wiener dogs, pitbulls, and other breeds. I would love to take your dogs out on walks drop in on your cats and give them the attention they need and deserve while you are away or you are unable to get to them. I cannot host animals at this time, but I would be happy to drop in and see yours while you are away on vacation, at work, or otherwise!
“Ryan is amazing!! He agreed to do a meet and greet with our little guy before a drop-in visit and it helped make both us, and our dog feel super comfortable! He was very responsive, prompt, and so sweet to our little guy! We would absolutely recommend Ryan and can’t wait to work with him on the future.”
“Jessica was a wonderful caretaker for my aging Newfoundland and my Newfoundland puppy. She was very responsive and communicative, and a very pleasant person to work with. I would definitely ask for her help again, and I highly recommend her!”
“We have used Nina multiple times for house sitting our dog and she has been exceptional! Always on time and includes many pictures with her check ins! We feel very comfortable leaving Luna in her care! ❤️”
About: I’ve cared for friends dogs as well as my own. I make it a point to pay attention to every dog individually and accommodate for uniqueness. I know some overheat and get tired faster than others, some dogs suffer from chronic ailments, and some are extremely energetic. I’m here for all of it. I am currently a college graduate (Mines) so I pick up pet care opportunities full time while I search for a more permanent career field. I would love to visit your dogs to provide playtime and care, however I am not able to board or house them at my domaine.
About: I have a really compassionate side as evidenced by my work in healthcare. I’m so excited to meet each pet with their different personalities and make accommodations to have them feel as comfortable as possible during the time you’re away. I work healthcare hours during the day and am happy to see pets in the evening when off of work. I look forward to letting your pet get some energy out with play and going for walks! I want them to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away and an easy transition when you get back. I currently have cats so we clean the litter box daily, provide time for play, fresh water and food daily. We also try out new enrichment toys often just to see what helps. I’ve seen my very shy strays become more social and at home over the years and it’s such a good feeling. Building trust with animals can take time and that’s where my patience comes in. When I had dogs growing up they were walked once or twice a day, backyard to play in and we would run around in together, also daily food and drink as well as comfortable places to sleep.
“Ginna has been amazing with my new land shark puppy, and being able to start right away and work with our schedule. She has been a life saver helping out with the baby!”
“Vanessa was amazing! This is our first time leaving the dogs and I was nervous about being across the country. Once we left though I knew they were in good hands. I was able to actually relax! She was very communicative and I loved the pictures she sent. We'll definitely hire Vanessa again if we need the pups looked after!”
“Fiona took wonderful care of my cats while I was out of town. She was communicative, gave great daily updates and photos, and felt everything nice and tidy. I will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Looking forward to asking Donald to watch my cat again! Donald is friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with. My very shy cat was very comfortable around him.”

“Absolutely amazing! I would recommend Becky to anyone looking for a Petsitter. She did a wonderful job watching my cats and reptiles while I was away for the holiday. She was available on short notice, her prices cannot be beat, and most of all she went above and beyond to provide my animals with the highest level of care. I will be rebooking her again!”

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.
