“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.”
“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 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.

I live in apartment in Arlington but have access to safe, side-walked neighborhoods for walking your dog around! If staying in your home, I will care for your pets exactly as you would like, with genuine care, trust and a love for animals being at the core of who I am and what I do!
“Zoe was kind enough to step in at the last minute and took great care of my two cats while I was away for a few days over the holidays! She was easy to communicate with, and I will happily book with her again in the future!”
“Asia took care of my cat Amora for a few days. I booked a little last minute, but communication was smooth the whole time. She sent me regular updates and was super understanding when I ran a bit late. My cat was in good hands, she’s a great sitter!”
About: I am Animal First Aid Certified and have a course in Animal Behavior. I have experience providing care to numerous pets, such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I also provide grooming such as nail trimming, brushing, brushing teeth, and baths if materials are provided. I am comfortable with kittens as well as older cats with medical diets or medication. When house sitting, I also can clean up after your pets, pick up mail or packages, or water your plants during my visit. My care is not just for your pet but for the health of your home too. I currently work full time from home during the week with appointments but have midday breaks and mornings are free. Weekends I’m very open to board or pet sit.I enjoy making time for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m comfortable following each pet’s individual schedule and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I also make time throughout the week for cleaning, grooming, and keeping their environment comfortable and tidy. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family! I have a quiet home with one cat of my own who is playful and friendly. I have a very clean home and am on top of the care of my own kitten. I make their comfort, safety, and routine my top priorities. I follow each pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and play schedule as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while respecting their individual personality and boundaries.

I have been a pet sitter for many neighbors and friends since I was 15. I am currently a full time college student so certain days of the week such as Tuesdays and Thursdays are busier than others. I am typically completely free on weekends and Mondays and Fridays I am free after 2pm I live in a wide spaced apartment with lots of room for your fur baby to roam as well as a big yard surrounded by a gate.
“We were so lucky to meet Imani! She is absolutely the best. Our cat loved her from the first minute he met her. She is most responsible, knowledgeable, professional, kind, and sweet person. I was very nervous about how our cat would handle his first time away from us and she put my mind at ease and made us very comfortable. We are most grateful.”
“Maria did an awesome job house sitting and taking care of our cat Ramona for 8 nights! I was traveling without cell service and she still sent daily pictures and updates that were great to see whenever I got a bit of service. She also did extra tidying which was great to come home to. Ramona seems way less stressed than usual when we get back from a trip as well. Overall a great experience!”
“Andrea did an amazing job looking after my cat while I was away for almost 2 weeks! I knew it would go well when we first met before the stay because she was really professional taking notes of my instructions, and my cat, who is usually shy at first, was already comfortable and trusting around Andrea. And I was not disappointed - Andrea took great care of BD, playing and cuddling with her every day. What I really appreciated is that Andrea sent me updates and photos every single day while I was away, so I could enjoy my time abroad without worries about my kitty. Andrea replies really fast which is great for communication, and she also left my house really clean. I strongly recommend her as a house and catsitter!”
“Sean and his partner Paulina were quick to respond to all messages and showed up on time, both to our meet and greet and to all three cat-sitting sessions while we were out of town. Our two babies were well fed and watered, and the more social one got some attention and play from Paulina too. The shy guy had a cleaned litter box to use when he came out of hiding after they left, but before that they even watered the flower baskets on our porch as a heat wave was starting. Thanks again Sean and Paulina!”
“Chris was so wonderful, his check ins were very thorough and he responded to me on short notice. I was very grateful to have found him- and so was my cat!”
About: We’ve always had dogs and cats growing up, so pet have always been a regular part of my everyday life! I know that sometimes this little things like walks or consistent feeding schedules can be the hardest part of having a pet! Allow me to take that weight from your shoulders! I have extensive experience with large dogs and puppies as well! I regularly housesit for homes with multiple animals and multiple species; dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, gerbils, and hamsters too! I’m currently working part time, but planning and scheduling are important to me. I am more often available in the mornings any day of the week. I value being consistent and reliable so I will only post availability that I’m sure will work! I will make sure to bring your pet everywhere with me! Clingy pets are my bread and butter! I have no problem hanging out as long as needed to always have an eye on your pets when they are in my care.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a proud cat parent to my own cat, I know how much peace of mind matters when you have to leave your furry family members behind. While I'm new to the Rover platform, pet care is second nature to me—back in college, I regularly helped my classmates with pet sitting, looking after both dogs and cats. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs some gentle loving attention, I treat every pet with the exact same care and devotion I give my own. Because I work remotely and part-time from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I am basically free and can easily find time for your pet any day or any time. Whether it's a mid-day walk or constant companionship, we can easily figure out a routine that works best for you and your pet! Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Whether I am dropping in for pet sitting or taking your dog out for an engaging walk, I treat every pet with the utmost care and respect. As an experienced cat owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to respect an animal's boundaries, safety needs, and home environment. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable updates, and treating your home and pets like my own.
“I could not recommend Rachel more! She is the best Rover sitter I have had yet. Rachel saved my husband and I when we were in an awkward spot with another Rover sitter who became unresponsive and kept feeding our kitties late (5 hours late at one point). We quickly hired Rachel to come in and save the day so we could still enjoy our anniversary camping trip. I had no idea how stressed I was until Rachel took over. She replied almost instantly after I made my initial request and she was highly responsive with each subsequent message exchange. She showed up ON TIME, captured the cutest photos of my cats (I was nervous about how she would find them), handled their routine like a pro, and was pleasant the entire time. She basically saved our anniversary weekend! I was able to relax after she took control of the situation and I will absolutely be using her again. Thank you, Rachel! I’m so grateful!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Guilford
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.
I highly recommend Nataly, she was amazing with caring for my cat Mango! Communication was excellent and I could tell Mango felt safe and had fun with her. She sent lots of photos and updates, and there was a small issue that came up which she handled very quickly and calmly and kept me updated the whole time. I would love to have her cat-sit again sometime!
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!!!
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

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. 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 , 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 .
