“Adrienna is an excellent and reliable sitter for our family of cats. Also Adrienna is willing to feed our pond fish. Having worked with many animals on a farm Adrienna is calm around our cats and efficient at performing all duties. She has stayed in touch sending photos and updates. We are so pleased with Adrienna that we booked her again.”

“Taylor has become a good friend of Dexter and me. On my recent trip away, she took care of my Bengal and was reliable and friendly. She also helped me after my schedule changed and I got home early. I had never needed to change a Rover reservation so she took care of it for me. Thanks, Taylor!”

“Ellie was super kind and helpful! She was very quick to understand everything needed to take care of my cat tooni :) She sent many pictures/amazing updates and was very quick to respond so I never worried about anything. Tooni’s usually shy but she seemed to open up to her right away! She also helped me out with some additional things I asked about while I was away. She’s super cool, book herrr ☺️”

About: I have been taking care of dogs of any kind ever since I can remember! I have been working at a local daycare and boarding facility for three years, and have been taking care of neighbor and family dogs for my whole life, I promise to give you an above and beyond experience! ❤️ While i'm at home in Saint Louis, I work part time at a dog daycare/boarding facility, but love doing Rover with all of the free time I have when not at work! I currently am studying at the University of Missouri and am a student athlete, but typically have a consistent schedule that allows me to do Rover and care for pets in my free time! While i'm at college I have a very spacious apartment with plenty of toys and a dog bed! I always ensure that your pet will get all the attention and care that they deserve!

About: I have experience taking care of dogs from all backgrounds. I have fostered dogs for most of my life. From puppies, adults, or seniors; and from the smallest chihuahuas to the biggest Great Danes, I care deeply about our furry friends. Weekday evening walks and check ins for busy cat and dog parents. I am available for check ins and walks Monday–Thursday after 5:00 PM. I provide safe, loving, and attentive care, following your pet’s routine and your instructions. I prioritize secure walks, supervision, and clear updates with photos after each visit.

“Grace was great! I got a picture of my cats every day I was gone, taking a big worry off my mind while I was on vacation. When I got home, everything was in great shape, especially my fur babies! Lowie was first to meet me as always. I had to call Taila, but she also came out of hiding. We spent the afternoon together as if I had never been gone. Thank you Grace for making this so seemless for both me and my cats.”

About: Former veterinary employee with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, needs, personalities, and energy levels. I also own two dogs of my own. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule from morning through the afternoon for drop-in visits and walks. I’m able to fit pet care into my daily routine while giving each pet the attention and care they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. With my previous veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and needs. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, consistency, plenty of attention, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I also have a fenced in back yard and two of my own dogs one who is a senior and one who is a puppy.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2019, when I started helping my mom with her dog-sitting business. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and acquaintances, including overnight stays. I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities and energy levels, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique quirks and routine. I’m happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and keeping them company while you’re away. I also have three pets of my own, so I understand how much our furry family members mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can trust. Whether your pup is an energetic ball of zoomies, a professional napper, or a little bit of both, I’m always excited to meet a new four-legged friend! I love a good cuddle buddy just as much as an excited fur baby ready to play, and I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐾💕 Hi! My name is Aurora, and I’m a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets, including experience helping my mom as a Rover pet sitter as well as caring for dogs for family, friends, and other clients. I currently work part-time from Sunday through Wednesday, with shifts that typically fall between 2 PM–10 PM or 4 PM–10 PM. Because of this, I have the most availability Thursday through Saturday, as well as mornings and earlier parts of the day on my workdays. I’m happy to communicate about my schedule ahead of time to make sure I can provide your pet with the time and attention they deserve. Every pet is different, so I believe the best care starts with getting to know their personality and routine. For dogs, a typical visit may look like a potty break, a walk, playing with their favorite toys, spending time outside, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention. Depending on their energy level, we might spend our time going for a longer walk and playing, or we may simply relax together and keep eachother company. For cats, I understand that their needs can look a little different. A typical cat visit may include feeding, refreshing their water, cleaning their litter box, playing with toys, and giving them attention and affection if they enjoy it. Some cats are social and love having someone play with them or give them lots of attention, while others are more independent or shy and prefer to have someone quietly check on them and give them space. I’m comfortable respecting those differences and letting each cat set the pace. I would also be more happy to take care of other small tasks that help keep your pets comfortable while you're away, such as bringing in packages, taking your trash to the curb, or watering plants. If your pet needs medication or has a specific care routine, I’m happy to discuss their needs beforehand.

About: I have extensive experience taking care of animals of all sizes! I've been working in vet med since I was in high school shadowing veterinarians and assisting technicians and have gained hands-on experience with both cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with everything from energetic puppies and kittens to your senior pets who may need a little more time and attention. While I no longer own my own pets, I understand how important it is to have reliable experienced pet care! I'm currently a full-time student at MIZZOU and wanted to start dog walking to fill my time! I miss my dogs back home so I will treat yours as if they're my own! I prioritize each pet's safety, comfort, and routine. In a client's home I follow all feeding, medication, exercise and care instructions while keeping the home secure and clean. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior or overall well-being and provide regular photos and updates. I take time to learn each pet's boundaries, needs, and personality so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away.

“Jennifer was very good with my 2 very shy cats. She figured out calling them didn't work. Instead, she would sit quietly and let their curiosity get the better of them. She sent me pictures every day--so nice to see. Plan to make her our regular pet sitter!”

About: I have had dogs almost my whole life since I was 1 years old. They are all my favorites! I have taken care of puppies through elderly. I have had dogs with seizures and one who only walked in left circles after a stroke. I have had dogs who lost their ability to control their bladder and dogs who needed help getting off the bed. I love them all and my life is better because they were in it! I work till 3:30-4 pm Monday through Friday in education. I am free many weekends a month. I am happy to do a drop in or two in the evenings and more with longer stays on weekends. I am not always available for last moment notice on weekends but will do my best to be available with a couple days notice. In your home I will follow what ever procedure you instruct. It is your home and your animal. Trust and consent is the most important part of the relationship. I am good at meeting expectations and will always strive to exceed them for your animal. You are the best they could hope for, I want you to feel confident they are just as cared for when they are with me.

Jennifer went above and beyond with caring for my kitty! She helped provide advice when Vesta was seeming sick after I left for my trip and I could not thank her enough for the care that she gave while I was gone. She took so many adorable photos and was very communicative about everything happening.

Hannah was awesome! My cat has chronic health conditions, and she did a great job monitoring symptoms and administering meds when necessary, including keeping me up to date about how my cat was doing every day. Would definitely book her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
