“Esther is amazing! So communicative and responsive and always keeps us in the loop. Sends amazing photos and goes above and beyond what is expected in terms of looking out for our cats and our home. Our kitties seem to love her and we definitely do too! Hope she keeps coming back to us 🥰”
“Kaitlin dropped in on our cat daily while we were away. She communicated frequently to let us know when she would be coming and sent photos. She even went back to see our cat a second time on the first day because she didn’t realize there was a check in feature. We will definitely be using Kaitlin next time!”
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.
“Bito is hands-down terrific! Really went above and beyond. Clearly won over the hearts of our cats, and even convinced our shy recluse to allow some pets — very impressed! I would trust Bito to cat sit or house sit without any reservation whatsoever. Highly recommend without any reservation whatsoever. Bito left my house cleaner than when I left for vacation, and watered my plants too :)”
“Demi is excellent! She has watched our cat multiple times and made the trek over on a holiday to see our girl. She is communicative and caring! Absolutely recommend her.”
“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.”
About: I am a medical student looking to help care for pets in my community! I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards and frogs... oh my! I adopted two cats in the last year and have loved every minute of being their cat-mom. I have always been an animal person and pride myself on working hard, being timely and treating all creatures with the love they deserve. I am a medical student with a flexible schedule, so I am able to accommodate to your pet's needs! I can often do classes from home which allows me to set my own daily schedule most days of the week- perfect for taking a study break to walk your pup or check in on your furry friends at home! 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!
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.
“Samantha was very communicative throughout the whole experience. She was on time and took care of my companions needs exactly as requested. Would highly recommend her to anyone and will be using her services again!”
“Susan is our go to. She’s basically our pets’ god mother 🤣. Not only is she a phenomenal pet sitter with cute pics and updates.. But her knowledge of animal behavior is impeccable. 100/10 recommend her to pet sit as well as training sessions. She’s been with us since we first brought our puppy home and has made such a positive impact on her behavior. I always tell my friends/family about her!❤️”
“Bria is amazing and I will be recommending their pet care services to all my friends in Brooklyn! My young kitty was a little bit of a terror while I was gone over the holidays and Bria made sure to clean up his messes and communicate everything with me on the spot! Bria went above and beyond making sure my kitty was well taken care of and I loved the photos & videos that were sent to my phone daily 😻 I 10000% recommend Bria’s services and feel a sense of relief that I no longer have to scramble to find a care taker for my kitty or pay hundreds of dollars for a short trip. Thank you Bria!”
“Joscelyn did an excellent job looking after our 3 cats for the whole week we were away. We reached out to her last minute the day before our trip. Issues came up with the cat sitter we had already hired forcing us to look for a new cat sitter within 24 hours. Joscelyn put us at ease with her immediate response and effective and timely communication. She swung by the night before just a few hours later after reaching out to her for the first time. She understood the tasks at hand, no drama no fuzz. She communicated daily with us, sending us pictures of our 3 cats and letting us know when she came by. We really could not have asked for a better sitter. She went beyond what was expected of her. We came home to find a clean home. She swept the floors around the cat litter area which is something no other prior sitter had done before. She did all the menial extra things we asked for. We are definitely tipping her well. We highly recommend her.”
“Angel is amazing! She communicates very well and swiftly. She pays attention to your dogs food and water intake. Will even go the extra mile by washing out the water bowl. A great sitter overall!!”
About: I've taken care of a dog in various formats since I was 14 years old. Currently I have three dogs that I have rescued and raised from various experiences where without me, they would have ended up worse off. I have extensive knowledge in pet care, wellbeing and injuries to keep a dog safe, happy and in a loving home. I've made it a point to understand dog nonverbal communication so that I can identify issues as they arise and keep my and your pets safe. My wife and I work opposite schedules most of the week meaning someone is home most of the day. I am an early riser often starting my day at 5am where I handle pet care until I leave for work around 7:30am. My wife takes over care until I return from work at 5pm and this is how our schedule runs Tuesday through Thursday. Monday and Friday we work the same shift so our pups will be unsupervised from 10am-5pm but are left in safe environments with plenty of mental stimulation and given potty breaks at 10am and extended breaks at 5pm when I arrive home. I am home all day on the weekends to take care of pet needs. I have a fenced in backyard that the dogs are free to play in all day with my other pups who are very friendly to other dogs. We have dog crates already set up in the home that are used on as needed basis and lots of mental stimulation toys like kongs, puzzles and treat dispensing toys. For my dogs they eat twice a day in the morning and night and are allowed unlimited (supervised through security cameras and frequent checks) backyard time, where there is water and a dog house to cool off. The dogs get walked on a rotating schedule throughout the week. In others homes I am sure to follow the schedule of the owner and ensure the wellbeing of your pet.
About: I'm a mature, loving pet and house sitter who's responsible, honest, reliable-and fun!.I have cared for puppies, kittens, dogs, cats, rabbits. Each one has a unique personality. I believe that each of these beings have little souls! And I love them all. I am a semi retired artist and photographer, so my schedule is my own. My schedule is flexible so I can accommodate most schedules easily. I treat every home and pet as if they were my own. I am neat and clean and respectful of your home. I am also a "super Host" on AirBNB
“Stephanie took amazing care of my cat! Not only did she make sure he had food/ water/ clean litterbox, she also hung out with him a bit and gave him love. Will definitely use her again!”
“Zoey has been perfect for watching our cat Smudge while we were away. He is old and timid and she went out of her way to make him comfortable and take care of him. She went above and beyond with her communication and he loved her! Completely recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gwynn Oak
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!
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.
Erika was wonderful with my two kitties! They were going through a finicky stage so I had to transition them to a raw diet which was a bit detailed. Erika followed everything to the letter! I love that she sent me daily photos. It was very much appreciated! Thank you Erika for giving the love and care ❤️
Anna is for real, the best! Every time we need to leave our boys at home we ask her to watch them because we love her so much! She’s always on time, sends lots of pictures, and takes care of our furry guys like they were her own. We would pick Anna over any other pet sitter or kennel every time.

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 .

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 .
