“Jayna has been wonderful with my cats. She's coaxed 2 extremely shy older kitties into coming out to say hello and has done an incredible job working out the energy of our youngest, most rambunctious cat. Sid has more mischief in him than we know what to do with, but his behavior is definitely improved after she visits and puts him through his paces. She has a very gentle and engaging energy with animals. Meanwhile, she is extremely consistent, prompt, professional, and courteous. Would 100% recommend.”

“Ana was professional responsive, kind, and a pleasure to work with altogether!! She sent us lots of pictures of our little boys and everything we asked her to! I would recommend Ana to anyone.”

“Joshuah took great care of our cat with digestive issues, and became fast friends with our kinda standoffish girl within a day. Great communication, lots of pictures, we felt super at ease knowing she was in caring hands. 10/10 would rebook.”


“I would highly recommend Xuan!! My dog was very content when I came home … walked, fed, water bowls filled, and a very happy dog! I could not have asked for a better person to take care of my fur-baby while I was away. Also, Xuan is very respectful of another’s home. I will definitely schedule Xuan again!!”
“Andrea house/cat sat for us this weekend and did a wonderful job. Was very sweet with our kitty and sent us lots of pics of them hanging out. Would definitely book again in the future”

About: I truly believe pets are part of the family—and when they’re in my care, that’s exactly how I treat them. ❤️ I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including walking, drop-in visits, and caring for them in both my home and their own homes. I love getting to know each dog and figuring out what makes them happy. Whether they want to play, go for a good walk, get lots of attention, or simply curl up beside me, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m an active, engaged pet sitter and love playing, talking to, and spending time with my furry friends. Once they’re in my care, they become part of my family. I enjoy playing with cats too, and giving them attention, but I also understand that many cats are happiest doing their own thing. I’m perfectly comfortable letting a cat have their space while keeping a watchful eye and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and cared for. My home is smoke-free, clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I keep food safely stored in cupboards and maintain a clean and sanitized environment. I’m mindful about keeping floors and common areas clean and making sure pets have a safe, comfortable place to relax. I have lengthy experience with large aquarium set ups with fish, turtles, geckos and lizards. Most importantly, I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of your pet’s individual routine and personality. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated while you’re away, and treat your home and belongings with the same care I would want someone to give mine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a playmate, a quiet companion, medication reminders, a cozy place to stay, or simply someone to keep them company—I’m happy to help. Your pets aren’t just pets to me. They’re little members of the family, and they deserve to be treated that way. 🐾 I do not have experience nor am I compatible with aggressive dogs or large dogs who pull on the leash. I hope you find another trusted sitter who can handle your dogs needs. Meet n Greets are required for first time services. Please allow the necessary time frames. My current availability is as such: Flexibility on the weekends and on Wednesdays during the day for regular and drop in-walks, drop-in visits and pet care. Holidays: Same availability and services at a modified fee. I’m also happy to care for pets in my home for doggy daycare care or boarding when the timing is a good fit. I know pets do best with consistency, so I’ll work with you to understand their normal routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. As my schedule changes, I will update my availability as quickly as I can. When you leave your pet in someone else’s care, trust matters. I take that responsibility seriously. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, stick to their normal routines as much as possible, and pay attention to the little things that help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure, make sure doors and gates are properly closed, and never take shortcuts when it comes to your pet’s safety. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to doing what I say I’ll do. If something unexpected comes up, I’ll communicate with you rather than making assumptions. Most importantly, I understand that your pet isn’t “just a pet.” They’re family. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, comfortable pet—and to feel confident that they were cared for with kindness, patience, and genuine attention while you were gone.

“Sarah did an amazing job looking after my ~9 month old cat while I was gone! She sent lots of photo updates to let me know that things were okay, and the my baby seemed very well taken care of.

About: I’ve been around animals and pet care my entire life. My dad is a veterinarian, so growing up, I had the unique opportunity to learn about animal behavior and care from an early age.

I have 8 years of experience walking dogs and providing drop-in visits, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with a variety of personalities and routines. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including tablets, ear drops, and eye drops, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable.

About: Hi there, I’m Nayev! If it has fur, scales, or fins, I’ve probably cared for it and loved it.

I’ve dealt with every behavioral issue under the sun, from intense separation anxiety to reactive dogs. More than anything, I just have a ton of love to give. I treat every pet like family and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and check-ins while you're away. I work outside of pet-care, but my schedule is very flexible, so I can fit your pets needs and not the other way around. I treat every pet like they’re my own.

About: Hey 👋🏽 I’m returning to Rover after a big move to Baltimore City! 🏙️ Originally from the DMV area, I am now accepting new clients in the Baltimore City and County areas. Over the past 6 years, I have taken care of a variety of dogs from 10 lbs to over 150+ lb, and usually sit or walk 2-3 dogs at a time. I am currently available to book Monday-Friday during business hours of 8am-6pm for dogwalking and drop in visits. If you are interested, in dogsitting, where I stay with your pup in your home, I am also available for all days but I will disclose I do work 6-7 hours on the weekends. I do not house dogs in my home but in a client’s home I am usually informed about making sure certain backyard doors or fences are sealed off. I also make sure to put up any gates in the house to avoid any damage the dogs might cause. I am currently available for walks, drop in visits, and house sitting during the week days. This includes Mon-Fri during 8am -6pm. I am unavailable on weekends at this moment. My services make sure your furry family continues their daily routine of meals, walking, indoor playtime and tend to any medical conditions they might have. This is to establish trust with you (owner) and your pet as a responsible care taker.

Deresha went above and beyond for me and Susie. She seemed so genuinely excited to get to know my cat, and it's clear she has a deep love of animals. I felt so safe leaving Susie in her care, and I absolutely would ask for her help again. She wrote me a very detailed summary of the time she spent with Susie and sent lots of pictures, and the litter box was cleaned very well. Thank you, Deresha!

You can tell Bito truly cares for animals! I was very nervous leaving my cat Nellie but Bito really went the extra mile to put my mind at ease and provide my girl with the love and attention she needed while I was away. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for future bookings!

Cleo took to Eileen immediately during our meet and greet. Eileen has the calm demeanor that Cleo, an older cat, appreciates. With no prompting Cleo parked herself in Eileens lap immediately. I felt very secure leaving Cleo overnight trusting Eileen to spend some time with her in my absense.

Brianna was a wonderful sitter from start to finish. She communicated clearly and often, sending updates so I never had to wonder how things were going. She followed all of my instructions carefully and paid attention to the details that matter for my fur baby. She was kind and gentle with my cat, and my nervous, shy cat took to her right away. It was clear my cat felt safe and comfortable in her care, which meant everything to me while I was away. I came home to a happy, healthy kitty and a well-kept home. I would absolutely book Brianna again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable 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 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.
