“Nejra is an excellent caretaker! She got my kitty that hides when people come over to come out and get petted. This eased my worries about Piccola. Thank you Nejra for taking such good care of my kitties!”
“Wonderful meet-n-greet before the initial drop-in visit. After that, she did an amazing job taking care of my two minion kitties Lilu & Ruby. Even got my sassy one to come out while she was there which is rare.”
“Sara did a great job of checking our cats while we were gone and worked with what seemed to be an ever-changing schedule at the end. We look forward to having her come back and check on our cats again in the future!”
“Geni was so accommodating with my last minute travel plans over Labor Day weekend + a life saver. She was very thorough with our meet and greet + did a great job with my babies! She helped care for my senior boy and his very young tortie sister this weekend. Thank you again!”
“Grace was great with my boy Murphy! She was very communicative and made sure I was aware of anything I needed to be made aware of. Murphy loved the visits and I will definitely rebook her in the near future!”
“Emily was awesome! She sent cute pictures and was very communicative. If there was anything she was unsure of she was not afraid to ask. I’m very pleased with my experience using Rover and I’m so glad I found Emily!”
“She did a fantastic job with the dogs. The last sitter I found on Rover pretended to let the dogs out and my puppy almost died. That was years ago, but I was very nervous about using the service again. I would definitely recommend her and will rebook with her in the future.”
“I felt very at ease having Julia care for my cat and be at my house when I was gone. She communicated well with updates and pictures! She left everything the way I left it. My cat was happy to have her. I would recommend Julia!”
About: I have worked with dogs for a long time, i worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years and now at a grooming salon. I have a lot of experience with small dogs, big dogs, young dogs, and old dogs. I also have experience administering meds, doing nail trims, etc. i’m currently working full time but can be available after 6 during the week. My weekends are pretty open and will continue to be open as the weather is getting warm. I am very cautious of my surroundings and care for everyone’s pets as much as I do my own and I am definitely a helicopter pet mom so your pup will be very well taken care of in my care.
“Thank you for taking care of our babies!! You did a great job and a fantastic job keeping us up to date hiw Daisy and Kimo was doing!!! They were happy to see us back home. Daisy quickly came to the garage door when she heard us!! And yes you forgot the lunch bag. If you want you can still stop by and pick it up. The alligator Daisy had in the middle of the floor, we don’t recognize it. Where did it come from?”
“Have really appreciated working with Megan. She’s been really great with my puppy and provides me with great details of their time together. I just really appreciate the communication. He’s so young and I worry about him but know he’s been in good hands with Megan!”
“Angie was very responsive and easy to work with! I would absolutely use again. I was unfortunately in a poor service area, creating some communication issues and Angie was very patient and helpful through the process!”
“I’m traveling for a few weeks. Jessica has been popping by my place and checking on my kitty a couple times a week, feed, watering and scooping litter. She’s very sweet.”
“Mackenzie is amazing! She sent photos and thorough updates -making me feel at ease while being away from my cats. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking her again!”
“Did such a wonderful job with my cats! Was always on time, and was above and beyond! Made sure my cats were interacted with daily as well as fed and watered! Would definitely recommend her to be your sitter!”
“Ezequiel did drop in visits for my two dogs while I was away for a few days. He has great communication. He was very punctual. He was willing to accommodate my dog who is quite skittish, using my special leash and gate set ups to ensure she did not escape. My Corgi enjoyed him right away. Ezequiel did a great job feeding my dogs who have sensitives, allergies, and not the easiest feeding routine. He offered to wipe the dogs off when they came inside as it was raining nearly the entire time. Would recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Grimes
Nejra was awesome with our quirky cats! The grey was very overexcited with Nejra, and the skittish black even approached her! Nejra did a great job with the reports and photos. And the food and litter boxes were well taken care of, too. We've already rebooked her!
Madison did a really great job with my two timid cats. We had just had some floor work done on the house the day before our trip, and Madison did a great job of making them feel comfortable and keeping them on schedule. Both kitties usually don’t come out when company is over, so I wasn’t expecting any pictures or anything aside from updates on their feeding times. Instead, I received several lovely pictures of them playing and looking completely relaxed in her company! She also did a great job staying on top of the litter and keeping everything neat and tidy. I will definitely try to book her again the next time I’m traveling and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great cat sitter!
Lynsey is amazing! 11/10 recommend her as a sitter - she will take good care of your fur baby! I have been lucky to be her client a few times now, and I will certainly continue to request her first when I am out of town and need a sitter to take care of my cats!

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.

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 .

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
