“Peyton provided drop in visits for my elderly Shar Pei for a 10 day vacation. She is priceless. Lots of communication, photos & videos. Yoda loved her. I am sure many times she spent more than the allotted time living on him. She understood & provided for the needs of a senior dog. I definitely recommend Peyton & will call on her again.”
About: I am a licensed veterinary technician and have experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medications. I've done pet sitting for my grandma's cat and dog in the past. I'll do free meet and greets with owners and their pets no problem. I'm willing to give baths and clean litter boxes as well. I currently work full time. I have a predictable schedule of Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of 9-5. I have a one hour lunch break between 11:30 and 12:40 where I can do drop in visits to feed, spend time with and give your pets bathroom breaks. I can walk dogs before and after work as well as drop in visits. I am willing to do house sitting with coming home during lunch to give bathroom breaks and feeding. I have three cats named Winston, Luna and Loki who each get canned cat food in the morning before work and they free feed dry food throughout the day. I have a 10 year old shih tzu named Harry who also gets wet food mixed with dry food for breakfast as well as dinner in the late afternoon. He gets let out every couple of hours to go to the bathroom and loves going walks, but I can only take him for short walks due to one of his knees having arthritis. I'm willing to clean client's cat's litter boxes as well as bath dogs as well as take out the trash and do laundry.
“Chris was super flexible- responded quickly and for a short notice sit at that! Furthermore, he was kind, personable, and professional upon meeting. He did amazing with our crazy, very big, very excitable dog. You can tell he stayed to spend time playing and giving our pup attention. Timely and communicative as well! We will be using him as our first line sitter from now on whenever possible!”
“Lucie was amazing and helped me out massively when I got stuck out of town last minute due to an unexpected family emergency. She stepped right in and took phenomenal care of my girl. She communicated seamlessly and provided amazing updates and photos that ensured I knew Rue was in the best possible hands. Every photo and update was prompt and detailed which completely eased my stress about leaving my pup for so long and showed how happy and comfortable Rue was with Lucie. I’m so incredibly grateful for Lucie and highly recommend hiring her to care for your pup! With Lucie, you can rest assured she will take the absolute best care of your pets!”
“Monica was great with my kitties! I will definitely rebook with her for future visits. It was great to feel that my furbabies were well looked after while I was gone. Great, consistent communication - photos, videos, updates, etc. Highly recommend!”
About: Dependable and very responsible. Mature, considerate and polite. I have a 20-year-old male cat that I rescued at 6 months old. I understand how important his health is and ensure that his needs are met on a daily basis. I have a pretty flexible schedule and available as well on weekends and holidays. I dog sit for two families, each own labs. I cat sit for my neighbors when they travel out of town for work and family events. I follow the owner's detailed instructions regarding feeding time, medications, etc. None of my dogs have had an accident in the house while the owner is away because I follow the owner's time schedule as if they were home.
“Katherine was amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and she was the perfect fit. She watched our cat, Kirby, at our home for the weekend and took such great care of him. She kept us updated with lots of photos, followed everything we asked, and made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Since I was in my teens I have lived a life with pets - both dogs and cats, and it has been such a rewarding journey so far! I have had two rescue dogs, a collie mix and a beagle, and they had my whole heart. I currently have a multi-cat household, and do TNR in my neighborhood where I can to help the outdoor stray cats. I have also rehomed multiple cats with the help of local rescue groups to ensure a long happy kitty life. Currently, I spend a great deal of time with my best buddy Rocco, an 8 year old black lab. I have experience with small dogs, medium sized dogs and large dogs and honestly enjoy them all the same! I also have experience with cats of all ages, from bottle feeding kittens to 18 year old seniors, and am comfortable giving any medications to dogs or cats as well. I know my way around all kinds of personalities and ages, whether it be those that want to play or those that need a slow, gentle walk and some extra attention. I have also been working with the same vet for 20+ years that can attest to my care and love for animals. I will treat every pet like my own - patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Being around animals - that's my happy place. My hours at work have changed which allows me to be available Monday-Friday 11am-3pm. I'm available for walks, drops ins for potty breaks while you're at work, or to check on your kitties if you'll be gone longer than you'd like to be. Lots of time for playing with your furry family members! I would be happy to come to your home and treat it and your pets with respect and care. My personal cats are all fixed and up to date on shots, however I took in a stray girl last winter who is very scared of everything. I think it's best to let her rule the house and come to visit yours at your homes where they are most comfortable.
About: I have owed my own pets,Dogs,Cats,turtle I have also attended to my friends and family's pets when they go out of town. I love animals. I am available mostly after 3 and evening to go let your pet out for a little while. Throw a ball with the ones that like it. Keep them happy I will stay the night if needed I have my own two dogs. So I would not want to bring your pet to my home. I believe most want to be at their home instead of a strange atmosphere
“Kayla was great with Biscuit!! She provided plenty of pictures and updates. Biscuit is a kitten so he requires playtime and Kayla went the extra mile playing with him. You could tell she just loves cats”
About: I have many years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I had my beloved dog, Patty, for 10 wonderful years, giving me hands-on experience with the daily responsibilities of pet ownership, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and providing lots of love and attention. I currently work part time at my gym and I have extra time on my end to check in and walk our fur babies. My schedule can be very flexible. Your animal is my priority when I'm with them. I will make sure they are safe and happy when they are with me. I will love them like they are my own.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and turtles, both as my own pets and for others. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, basic grooming, and following each pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I’m happy to adjust my care accordingly. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away and can send lots of pictures and updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and loved! My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and extended stays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can provide frequent potty breaks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality and boundaries and make sure they feel comfortable with me. I’m experienced with administering medications, including subcutaneous fluids, and I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Madeleine was very nice, respectful, and helpful while taking care of my cats. There were a couple of minor hiccups—she arrived late on the first day and spent quite a bit of time on her phone rather than actively playing with the cats—but overall, she provided good care, and everything went well.”
“Hanan took great care of Oreo while we were gone and she is the first overnight stay Rover that actually listens to us and takes advantage of the stay and treats it like a staycation which we encourage. We came home to a happy kitty!”
“I was very nervous leaving my cat with someone else for the first time. Jordyn made sure she was comfortable and happy! Jordyn sent many updates with them playing! She is a very sweet person and with do great with your furry friends! If I could give her 10 stars I would!”
“Alexandria was absolutely incredible! We hired her while we were out of town over the holiday. We were looking for someone to primarily administer my cats medication. She did wonderful providing us an updates and giving us photos while we were missing our furry friends. She did daily litter scoops, and made sure to play with our youngest kitten. We would recommend her to anyone 10/10.”

Could not ask for a better friend for my bunny! Super kind and trustworthy. I sincerely appreciate the adaptation and willingness to care for an “exotic” pet (like Mochi’s not just a little puppy cat). Everything was perfect and I came home to a very happy bun. Thanks a bun-ch! 🐇
Joshua was excellent with the kitties and took great care of my home! He left wonderful updates and pictures every visit, and made sure the shy ones were accounted for and safe. I could tell he really cares about the cats and I’m so appreciative for his care!
Heather was able to respond to a last-minute request and took fantastic care of our two cats! She was reliable and provided detailed updates and photos and even brought her own toys to keep them entertained while we were gone! We will definitely ask Heather to return again
Mary took fantastic care of our cats. She’s so patient with our shy Gus, who has finally decided that Mary is a-ok. Gino, of course, is her biggest fan. We have zero concerns leaving them both in Mary’s care - she provides great updates and pictures and both boys are well loved while we are gone. We can’t ask for more! Mary also went above and beyond taking in very large packages that came while we were away - it is much appreciated. We already have Mary booked for our next trip!
So happy Jillian was available to do stop ins for our 3 cats. She showed them so much love and care, took care of everything we asked and made sure to send us daily notes and photos. Really appreciate the care which went above and beyond and will absolutely book again down the road.
Jenna provided exceptional service taking care of my cats while I was out of town. I really appreciated the pictures from each of her visits and was impressed with the overall cleanliness - one of my cats is a messy eater! - when I returned. I am so grateful to have met Jenna and would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
