“Sherri was great with our cat Chloe for the drop-in visits during 9 days we were out of town. We had no worries and the daily reports and pictures really put us as ease. Would definitely ask for Sherri again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.
“Liz is amazing! She is reliable, punctual, communicative, and meticulous with all pet instructions. All of my animals love having her around. She also cares for my extras (bunnies, chickens, fish, and snake). I will definitely use her anytime I am out of town.”
“Holly took very good care of my kitties and followed my care instructions perfectly. When we returned from an extended trip away, my kitties we happy and well cared for. I received photos of my kitties from Holly during her visits and she was easy to schedule and promptly returned my messages before and during her visits. I'm definitely booking her again! Thank you!!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I currently live on a farm with cows, pigs, chickens, cats, and my very sweet bloodhound/border collie mix dog. I’m currently in between jobs at the moment, so I have plenty of time and energy to devote to walking and playing with your pets! I strive to follow your regular routine(s) with your pets as closely as possible to make their time away from you less stressful on them.
“Brooke did such a great job! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so thankful I found someone who was trustworthy while I was away from home. It’s obvious how much she cares about animals and will treat yours like her own. She even brought in my packages and took photos to share on every trip to my home. She happily checked in on the fishy and took the dogs for walks which is so appreciated!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mahalia! She took great care of Paisley and kept us updated throughout the stay. Paisley was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend!"”
“OMG, where do I start! Yanni and her partner was EXCELLENT! I wish I could give 100 stars for their dependability and effort! Yani even fixed my back sliding door blinds that I couldn’t figure out how to do for the past year, LOL! I will definitely use her again, my fur baby just loved her!”
“Margaux was wonderful to work with. I had a business meeting in the east Bay Area and was going to be gone for about 12 hours. Margaux made it very easy to come by and give my boy a nice break and playtime during the long day. I also appreciated the amazing photos she took during her visit! Thank you Margaux for checking in on Teddy for me!”
About: Pets have always been a part of my life—whether fur, scales, or feathers, there’s never been a time my home wasn’t shared with animals. I truly believe pets don’t just live in a house—they make it a home and become family. I recently welcomed a playful cat named Ducky, who has quickly reminded us what it’s like to have curiosity, energy, and a bit of chaos woven into everyday life. That same appreciation for each pet’s personality carries into the care I provide. Whether it’s a quick visit or a longer stay, you can count on me to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for as if they were my own. I focus on maintaining their routine, minimizing stress, and making sure they feel secure and at ease—until you’re back home and reunited. I'm currently a reservist in the military, so I have a lot of free time to help busy schedules and vacations. You want to take that cruise you have been planning? Or have a busy meeting to go to? You can count on me We share our home with a lively, vocal kitty named Ducky who keeps things active and full of personality. She’s playful, curious, and always ready to “chat,” which has made us very attentive to creating a safe, calm, and well-managed environment for all animals in our care. That same level of awareness and responsibility extends to every pet I look after. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort, ensuring each pet feels secure and cared for as part of the family while they’re with me.
“I cannot say enough about how great Berkley was. She went above and beyond while dropping in on my cats. Berkley took extra care in making sure the cats were happy and cared for. I received plenty of videos and pictures of all 3 of my cats while I was away. Made me feel at peace knowing they were so well cared for while I was out of state. I would absolutely use Berkley again!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've been a proud dog owner of several breeds and a cat owner, and caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's something I truly love. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I'm happy to provide the individualized care they deserve. I know how important it is to leave your furry family member with someone you trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'm dependable, trustworthy, punctual, and attentive to every detail. I communicate regularly, follow instructions carefully, and will always treat your pets and your home with the same respect and care I would my own. My goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while making sure your pet feels loved, happy, and cared for until you return. I can't wait to meet you and your wonderful furry family members! Thank you for considering me. It would be a privilege to care for your beloved pets. I also wanted to note that my absolute favorite dog breed are Pugs, I grew up with three of them! — Lyndsay 🐾 Caring for animals is something that genuinely brings me happiness. I truly cherish every opportunity to spend time with them, whether we're going for a walk, playing, or simply enjoying each other's company. Being able to care for pets throughout my week is incredibly rewarding, and I love knowing that I'm providing them with the attention, comfort, and affection they deserve while giving their owners peace of mind. There's nothing more fulfilling to me than earning the trust of both pets and their families and treating every furry friend as if they were my own. Every pet is unique, with their own personality, preferences, and individual needs. I take the time to get to know each animal and am committed to providing personalized care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet has a specific routine, dietary requirements, medication schedule, or simply needs a little extra patience and reassurance, I will do my best to accommodate their needs with compassion, attentiveness, and care. My goal is to create a calm, trusting environment where your pet feels secure and receives the same love and respect I would give my own.

About: If you want to get away for that well deserved vacation or just a 3 day weekend and feel secure in knowing that your fur babies are being lovingly cared for, then I’m just who you’re looking for! I have loved dogs (and most animals) my whole life. I think of them as a family member, not as a pet. I will remain calm around your loved one as not to cause any anxiety. Even though I don’t have a dog at this time, I have had many dogs throughout my life. I can hardly remember a time that I didn’t have one. My best friend (a Boxer named CC) had quite a few medical problems from 2010 through 2015 and I had to give her an average of 17 pills a day. (Sometimes less). So I’m pretty experienced as far as that goes. My schedule is very flexible and I am very reliable. I am flexible about allowing your pet on furniture. If that’s not allowed I will follow your wishes 100%.

I will treat your home and pets with great respect and professionalism. I have reliable transportation. Safety of your fur baby and myself will be a great priority.
About: I am a loving mom to four of my own fur babies of various ages and breeds. I take pride in making sure they are happy and healthy. I work part-time and love spending time at home playing and cuddling with my fur babies. I have had the pleasure of taking care of several of my friends babies and would love to be there for you too. I spend lots of time exercising and socializing my babies. Lots of walks, trips to the dog park and enrichment toys. If they're happy, I'm happy 😊

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.

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.
