““Lyndsay was great! She was responsive, sent a ton of photos of our babies, and kept us updated throughout our trip. We don’t have the easiest five-animal household, but Lyndsay handled everything with ease. She also did a wonderful job administering medication to one of our 5-month-old kitten, which gave us extra peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her!””
“Rose went above and beyond for a drop in visit for my 2 very different dogs. Washing and refilling their water dishes, giving them a brush and some good outside time.”
“Lisa did an exceptional job watching my two cats for a week. She provided a daily update and photos and was very responsive. She went above and beyond and I highly recommend her.”
“Cade went above and beyond what I had asked. They cleaned up after my cats when they made a mess and updated me after every visit on if my asthmatic cat had any incidents. Also both of my cats absolutely loved them. Even my rescue who is very terrified of new people entering the apartment. Will be requesting services again. Thank you!”
About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs for over five years, including my own pup for the past two. I’ve helped family and friends with dog sitting, walking, feeding, and basic care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m patient, calm, and attentive—always making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or keeping up with routines, I treat every dog as if they’re my own. I currently have Friday and Saturday off from my regular job, which makes my schedule very flexible for pet care. I’m happy to help with walks or drop-in visits on those days, and can often accommodate other times as well with advance notice. I always make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. I specialize in drop-in visits for dogs and cats, as well as dog walking, and I take pride in providing attentive, reliable care. I’m very detail-oriented when it comes to pet safety, comfort, and following each pet’s routine. During drop-in visits, I make sure fresh water is always available, meals are served according to your instructions, medications are administered correctly when needed, and your home is secure so your pets remain safe and comfortable. On dog walks, I stay alert at all times to prevent dogs from picking up or eating anything off the ground, and I’m especially attentive to curious puppies and easily distracted dogs. I also pay close attention to our surroundings to ensure every walk is both safe and enjoyable. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in good hands every time I visit.
“Sara is wonderful, her attention to detail, thoughtful communication is one of my favorite qualities. Tatertot was well taken care of on her drop in visits. We will rebook, when she has availability. Your pets are in good hands! I highly recommend”
“Melissa took wonderful care of our cat for 6 days. She always sent great photos and reported on their interactions. We hope we can continue to use her for cat care for many more years.”
“Very good experience!! Stacey professionally and perfectly followed what I had asked her even those texted to her in the last moment. My Moosh boy is a 17 years old cat with liver problems and others and needed a cat sitter while I was away from home for 2 nights and three days. I was worried if he could be all right as he has been very frail, however, he kept good appetite with her help and was perky when I returned to him. I hope to ask for her help from now on when I need to be away from home.”
About: I've been caring for my personal cat since 2018, although I grew up with cats and a dog in the house and had close relationships with them. I have a Bachelor's in Animal Behavior from the University of New England (UNE). I worked at a doggy day care for a year and since the beginning of 2025 have been walking dogs and providing other pet care services for clients. Pet care is the focus of my weekly routine. I'm available from 10am-5pm Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and 10am-4pm Fridays, for walks, and can be available for check in visits or housesitting any time of the week. I go above and beyond to try to make sure your pet enjoys their time with me, while also following all rules and instructions you might leave me. I provide a summary of each visit as well as at least one photo, to make sure you know exactly what's going on with your pet.
“I booked Kara last minute, and she was so gracious about it. She even made the time for a meet and greet! I was comfortable with her experience and energy while interacting with our dog and bunny, and she took excellent care of them for us while we were away!”
About: I grew up on a farm, so I've had experience with a variety of animals, especially dogs! My family has always had at least one dog, all with varying sizes. I've endured it all from the ankle biters, the sweetest pitbulls and border collies, to the greatest of the danes. I'm currently a college student, so my evenings and weekends are free! Being stuck in a classroom gives me the fuel I need to go on a walk with your dog or experience (safe) zoomies with your cat. Summer time is usually great because it means more time outdoors for all of us! I'm currently unable to house your pets, but I can be with them in their favorite place- whether that be your home or on a walk!
“Very communicative, I appreciated it especially when my cat got a little sick during the week I was gone. Will definitely use Nikki again the next time I go out of town!”
“Nishat was extremely timely and quick to respond when I needed some last minute care! She sent lots of photos for updates and made me feel better that my kitties were getting some play time and love while I was away 🥰”
“Chrissie is amazing! She was kind enough to come over to meet us and our cat Tippi before our booking. Our elderly cat can be quite persnickety with new people, but by the end of her time taking care of her, she had Tippi playing and purring! The daily updates and photos were fantastic, and it was such a relief to know Tip was well cared for. We have more trips coming up and will absolutely be booking Chrissie!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love caring for them. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel happy and secure. From energetic puppies to independent cats and senior pets needing extra attention, I treat every animal like family and make their well-being my top priority. 🐾❤️ Hey there) I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to care of your pets. Flexible schedule, overnight care and walking available. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving, and secure environment where pets can feel at home. I follow any routines, feeding schedules, and special instructions you provide, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gorham
Christina was awesome! She cared for our two cats while we were away for the weekend and was kind and communicative throughout. We were able to fully relax and enjoy our trip knowing our kitties were in great hands. This was our first time booking with Christina, and we would definitely hire her again!
Lyndsay was great! This was our first time trusting someone who isn’t family to care for our cat Jose. We were a little nervous, and after the first drop in visit we completely relaxed. Jose is shy, but sweet and was comfortable with her immediately. Lyndsay sent photos and a report at each visit, she’s very fast to respond to messages. It couldn’t have gone smoother When we need a sitter again we will be reaching out to book Lyndsay.

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.

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.
