“Jennifer is fantastic! She was the first time we ever left the two dogs with anyone besides family. After her first visit and update I was able to enjoy the entire vacay. The dogs were beyond loved the week Jen took care off them. We will definitely use Jen anytime we need doggie sitting. Thank you again Jen for everything! 😘”
About: Hi! My name is Paige, and I’m 24 years old. I’m currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree in forensic studies with the goal of becoming a crime scene investigator. 🕵️ I currently work two jobs and now a third to look for a little extra income to save for my new home. My love for animals began when I was a child and has only grown over the years. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, and even lizards! Because of that, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience providing overnight dog-sitting services for families through other pet-care apps. This has allowed me to work with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and routines while giving pet parents peace of mind when they’re away from home. I also have two furry companions of my own—a Mini Dapple Dachshund named Bennett and a sweet cat named Ruby. 🥰 They mean the world to me, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or overnight care, I would love the opportunity to provide them with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own! 🐾❤️ I work part time and I’m in college. I can find time between classes and work to take care of your pet. I can also stay additional nights or days as well. I can assure you that your pet will be loved and taken care of! I can provide dog toys if given permission and I will always make sure your pet is happy.
About: I have taken care of/walked dogs since I was 7. I’ve grown up with dogs and have never lived without one in my home. Many neighbors and friends trust me with their pets to either walk or care for them from either a day at a time or weeks. During the week I have sports and school but weekends are reserved to make sure the care of your pet(s) is received properly and carefully I am more than happy to play with any pet to ensure he/she is happy and healthy while I care for them. If you have special requests, I can make it a priority to fulfill them.
“Natasha and Gaspare took great care of our kitties and sent us pictures and updates every day. I would absolutely recommend them to others and I would definitely want to book them again in the future.”
“Jennifer took care of our former feral cat while we were away for a week. Our cat never goes to strangers however over the course of the week Jennifer was able to win her trust and her affection! We highly recommend Jennifer for your pet sitting needs.”
“Mary was an absolute life saver! I had an emergency, and Mary was there to help out! She checked in on my dog and cat for a few days. They absolutely loved her! She not only made sure they were all walked, fed, and happy, but played with them and spent time each visit making sure they got tons of love and attention. Will absolutely be using Mary again for boarding or drop in’s - she was beyond fantastic!”
“Mary helped us on short notice. She treated Luke great and handled everything like a professional. She followed our directions without any fuss and made things easy. We appreciated her help and plan to book her again if available.”
“Laura is very sweet, knowledgable, reliable, and flexible. She's great with my puppy and I couldn't ask for a better sitter-she even sends me picture updates when I'm at work! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a new dog sitter in the area. ”
“Alesia is the best! She kept me updated regularly and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cats. When my door lock wouldn’t work, she provided the food to my outside cats so they wouldn’t go hungry until I got back. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!!!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs from 5 years old. I have two small dogs that get along well with other pets. I would love to help with your pet needs. I am available to care for your pets in the afternoon/evening most days with walks or just drop in to spend quality time with them. I have two friendly, small dogs to keep your fur baby company in my home. They can also have their own space if desired. I am also happy to care for your pets in your home.
About: I take care of both cats and dogs, I have pet sitting experience since I was a little kid. I am good with helping dogs not jump on people. I currently work from home doing so ial media management, but I wanted to get another job so I have a way to get out of the house more! I have my own vehicle so I can either take your doggies out on a day trip, or take them to the vet - whatever you may need. Cats included of course!
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I currently have a Maine Coon cat and have lived with and cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust with each one. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will always treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or just wants someone to keep them company, I’m committed to providing attentive and compassionate care. I work full-time during the week, so I’m available for evening visits and drop-ins after 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I’ll always communicate promptly and do my best to work around your pet’s routine to provide consistent, reliable care. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I know that cats thrive on routine, so I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special preferences. I’ll treat your home with respect, send photo updates during each visit, and make sure your cat feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
About: Hello! New here to Rover but have had lots of experience with taking care of pets like yours! I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your kids, as I’ve been volunteering at shelters and humane societies most of my highschool years. I have also been dogsitting for friends and family for a long time. These experiences have not only increased my understanding of canine and feline behavior, but has also developed my caregiving skills. I even have a fur family myself: three big dogs, two small shitzus & one cat. Rest assured, you’re fur babies will be taken care of as if their my own! Being young has its perks, as I’m able to run, walk, play and even train with them! (or cuddles). Car rides and walks in the park are my favorite! I am committed to maintaining your dogs daily routine and also have fun, take pictures, and update you throughout the whole jouney! ☺️ I’m currently working full time at a healthcare facility Monday - Friday. Completely open for the weekends! For dog walking, I can be there before 8am, go on my hour break to check and see if they are okay, and also head to see them before i go home. For house sitting, only Friday nights and weekends! I have a fenced yard with five dogs that love to roam around with lots of toys and balls they love to chase! A Doggy pool if it gets a little warm!
“My cat is very shy and warmed up to Emma within the first day. I’ve hired her twice for Rover services and each time went perfectly without any problems. She gives updates every visit along with pictures. I definitely recommend her and would give 6 stars if possible!”
“Emma did a great job taking care of our dogs! Always came at the times we requested, sent the cutest pictures daily, and even thought to leave the outside lights on the last night, since she knew we would arrive very late. Highly recommended!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Natasha was absolutely amazing! She stepped in to help with my animals on very short notice, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly caring with all of my pets. She made sure to follow every instruction I left for her and kept me updated throughout each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I loved receiving updates and knowing that all of my babies were being cared for so well. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pets, but Natasha went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy, safe, and comfortable. I could tell she genuinely cared about them as if they were her own. I highly recommend Natasha to anyone looking for a dependable, communicative, and compassionate pet sitter. She is truly the best, and I would book her again without hesitation!
VERY happy with the care and attention Mary gave my kitties! My one kitty is diabetic, so it’s great to find someone with experience taking care of diabetic kitties! She took lots of pictures of the kitties for me 😊 I will definitely contact Mary again when I need kitty care.

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.

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.
