“We had a last minute change of plans and needed drop in visits for our cat on short notice - Ivan was flexible and dependable and really helped us out!! Our often skittish and sometimes anti-social cat even came out of hiding every visit for some pets :)”
“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.”
“I was away for a few weeks and she made sure to keep me updated with check ins. It was my first time using the app and she pretty much helped me navigate it as well. Definitely very helpful and took some stress off of my family. Will definitely be using her in the future.”
“SJ was able to fill in for us last minute to watch out three kitties for the weekend (they also regularly check in on our doggy throughout the week). They are super responsive and easy to communicate with, very reliable, and take such good care of our pets. Would highly recommend!!!”
“Ana was great! She was very responsive and provided great updates and pictures. She made sure Luna was well taken care of and happy. I really appreciated how attentive and communicative she was and would book with Ana again.”
“Amazingly helpful, I did not have to worry about my pet once while I was away! She even watered my thirsty plants, thank you again! Would rebook services for sure”
“Madeline is an amazing communicator, clearly cares about our pets and followed instructions. We couldn’t be happier with the care our cats received”
“Ned was fantastic! Great communication (& pictures!), very professional, great rapport with my cats. I felt reassured that my cats were in great hands while I was away! I will be booking Ned again soon.”
“Sun was wonderful with Morty! they sent me a bunch of photos while i was away, left great notes, and were super personable & pleasant to work with. definitely felt like my guy was in great hands with them and will be re-booking for future trips!”
“Bito took great care of our cats over a long weekend and sent lots of updates and photos during each visit, which we really appreciated. They spent extra time with our cats and were very communicative throughout the stay. We also came home to a very tidy house, which was thoughtful of them. Our cats seemed relaxed and well cared for when we returned.”
“Joshuah was great with my furry girls. In addition, he took it upon himself to do things around the house that were a big help, but not requested. I would recommend him any time.”
About: I have an 11 year old senior dog who I’ve trained in eating, using the bathroom, tricks, and other manners since he was born. I’m known to my family and close friends as the pet-obsessed girl, who says hi to every animal I pass on the street. By picking me as your animal’s caretaker, your picking a complete animal-lover who will love your pets just as much as you do❤️ As a college athlete, I often take walks around my neighborhood on my own for leisurely time. I’d be over the moon happy to have a companion to take these walks with, or even take them to the park to get some play time together! Along with loving animals, I also would describe myself as being a pretty clean and organized person. However you leave your home is how I will leave it for you when you return.
About: I grew up always having at least one dog in the house. I have previously worked for a dog rescue, both as a volunteer dog walker and an employee (marketing, but we always had dogs around and I learned so much about their care!). I personally have had an amazing pit bull named Luna for 9 years - she is leash reactive so I also have experience dealing with hard-to-walk pups! I am a freelancer who works remotely and sets my own hours. I can work around your schedule and your pet’s needs to provide them care. I know that every dog is different and some need more specific care. I am here to follow your instructions and provide your pet care as if they were my own!
“Kelsey was amazing!! So responsive and thoughtful with my kitties, including a senior cat with med requirements. It was super comforting to know the cats were in great hands and receive thorough updates along the way!”
“Thank you for taking great care of my cats over a long period of time. I truly appreciated your reliability and would not hesitate to contact you again in the future.”
About: I had been taking care of my family’s chihuahua and poodle growing up, and I was a sitter for my friend’s Munchkin cat for one year. My friends would always come to me to check on their cats whenever they were out of town. I’m currently taking care of a kitten of my own. I’m currently a full-time grad student, but I’m usually free after 6 pm during weekdays. I have more availability on weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate to the client’s schedule. I have a young kitten in my house right now, but I fenced the entry to her floor. Your fur babies can either snuggle with her or can be housed separately on other floors.
“This was our first time working with a pet sitter and Corinne was great! Our cat enjoyed the cuddles and getting to stay home instead of boarding. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have been trusted to take care of family and friends' pets for a longgg time. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of kitties and walking dogs ≽(•⩊ •マ≼ I'm currently working part time in the evenings, so I am available for all your pets needs. So, my preferred is in the day time and overnight stays. I am very conscientious of being in someone's home and I would go above and beyond in terms of dog, cat, (and plant) care!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Guilford
Emily is conscientious, punctual, friendly, and clearly loves cats. My cat Lilah instantly felt at ease with her, even though she typically hides from any new people for a day or two. But with Emily, Lilah felt safe to emerge for brushing starting with her first visit! She also provided informative updates including photos at every visit, and took care of the litter as well. I know that Lilah will always be in good hands with Auntie Emily!
Marisa is the greatest! She took wonderful care of our three animals (two cats and a dog) while we were out of town and kept an eye on our home. She is conscientious, friendly, and communication was perfect. Our animals absolutely loved her, and our normally water-hating dog even went out in the rain with her for a walk! She even picked up mail and let us know about minor issues with the house and trash can while we were away. As long as Marisa is available, we will continue to book with her. Thank you!!!
Hayden is a great pet sitter, I would highly recommend you book her. She took great care of my two cats, provided me with daily updates, photos, and was willing to help in any way. She helped keep the litter box clean, fed the cats on-time, and played with them before leaving.
Laura is a fantastic pet sitter! She was able to win the affection of 2 of my shyer cats. She's very clearly experienced with cats and their behaviors. She tired out my kitten with lots of play. She took lots of notes during our meet and greet and followed the (rather complicated) feeding instructions between the 3 cats. I will absolutely be booking with Laura again in the future
Nathalie is an outstanding cat sitter. We came home to very happy, healthy, and well loved cats. Nathalie was a great communicator about how our cats were doing and helped us work through getting them used to their new feeders. We loved the daily photos and the clear peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of so professionally.
Bob was super communicative and very sensitive to my cats needs and their anxiety! I was so surprised to see that my Charly came out to greet him in one of the update photos as she doesn't usually interact with people she doesn't know. I highly recommend that any cat parent hire Bob as he is clearly a natural with them.
Elizabeth was awesome and took such great care of my cats! This was my first time using Rover, so I was pretty nervous, but she totally eased my mind. She was super nice during the meet and greet and sent me pictures and updates every day while she was taking care of them. I really appreciated the communication and knowing my cats were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Guilford. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
