“Erin is great! She was very attentive and caring towards my cat. I appreciated her approach by not just checking boxes and dropping in to care for my, but to spend quality time with my cat. I highly recommend Erin!”
“Savannah took amazing care of our two kitties while we were out of town for a week. One of them is incredibly skittish and we had worried that he would stay hidden the whole time we were away…nope! Savannah became fast friends with both our cats, and we were so impressed when we saw pictures of both cats playing with her on the very first night we were gone. Aside from our cats adoring her, she was so communicative, professional, prompt, and even let us know when one of the cats broke a bottle while we were gone. We came home to zero mess, so I suspect she went the extra mile and cleaned up the mess for us. She truly is the best, and we will absolutely call her the next time we travel!”
About: I have taken care of animals off and on since I was 11 I have been relied on to feed and walk animals or just supervise and let them roam. I have been taking care of my cats for about 3 years now and am a bather and dog trainer (positive reinforcement) and have gone through training at work for both. I would be working before or after my full time job or on my off days. Most evenings I can do after 5:30, I have full availability on Thurs/Fri, and limited morning availability. Unfortunately I cannot board at this time nor can I do overnight stays. I would play, feed, and chillax with the pet and just be a companion whilst also being strict when necessary. If it’s an older dog I can sit and play or just relax witg them, petting and cuddling. For younger more energetic I can either play inside or go to a park or field and let them run while paying attention so they don’t run off. I do have training as a trainer and bather so I can help with those areas as well. I currently have cats and have them on regular feeding schedules and will play when they want but we mostly cuddle and relax together.
“Cora Leigh is the best in pet sitting. With our home in the middle of an extensive remodel, she worked around the chaos and our kitty was well cared for. Completely trustworthy and manages any situation. Our kitty is well cared for with time and attention to many pets!”
About: I have cared for animals my whole life! I currently have one cat but have had dogs cats, and turtles. I am very attentive. I try to communicate with each animal on their level. It's important to me that they feel heard. Whether they're trying to show me something that interests them, or worries them. I am always watching and listening. I work part-time right now, so I have a lot of time during the week to care for your pets. We will just need to find a time that suits both out needs. Firstly, I will follow any specialized directions you give me. You know your pets better than anyone! Secondly, I've cared for pets pretty much my entire life and their safety is my #1 priority. I know how to keep an eye on them- even the mischievous ones haha!

About: Hi, I'm Amanda - an experienced animal caretaker who lives on a farm in Penngrove surrounded by dogs, sheep, goats, chickens, ducks and livestock guardian dogs. I've always had a love for ALL animals. I live with my partner and our 7 year old son. Your pets can expect: *Love, patience and positive energy *Safe, fun walks *Fresh water, meals and meds (if needed) *Photo and text updates I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and temperaments - from high energy puppies to seniors. I have a natural understanding of animal behavior. I treat every animal like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, happy and loved while you're away. I am flexible in my availability! Whether you need a weekday/weekend walker, a vacation drop in, or someone to spoil your pup while you work, I'm here to help. When I care for pets in their home, I like to follow their normal routines and keep everything as consistent as possible- from feeding schedules to walking routes- so they feel relaxed and at ease. I'm mindful of doors, gates, and leashes.
“Kyline was fantastic for our house and kitty. Super upfront about work schedule. She sent us numerous photos and updates with and without prompting. Left the house clean, and took care of everything we asked. Highly recommend.”
About: I have two cats who I live hanging out with. I have had a dog in the past and have taken care of reptiles before. I work a full time but always do the best i can to provide care for furry pals. Dog parks and long walks are the best!! I allow any pet to get comfortable with me first, I wont force myself onto them so they feel safe and confortable around me when they are ready.
About: I grew up with two dogs and currently have a cat, so I have years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats. My dogs are still an important part of my life, and caring for them has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet's unique personality and needs. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will provide plenty of attention, care, and companionship while you're away. 🐾 I'm a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate feeding schedules, playtime, litter box cleaning, walks, and check ins while making sure pets receive the care and companionship they need. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and I make it a priority to provide reliable, attentive care for every pet. 🐾 For drop in visits, I care for pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow each pet's routine by providing fresh food and water, cleaning litter boxes or taking dogs out for potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and plenty of attention. I always respect your home's rules and make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure before leaving. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer approach, I adapt to their needs to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. 🐾🐶🐱
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, birds, fish (both saltwater and freshwater), and small mammals as I’ve had all of them as pets or taken care of my friend's. As a teenager, I worked at a local kennel, gaining valuable experience with feeding routines, cleaning, and handling animals of all temperaments. I’ve also trained my own dogs, earning several first-place ribbons in competitions. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely passionate about animal care—whether it’s a walk around the block or providing loving companionship while you’re away! I am also experienced in giving subcutaneous fluids and administering all kinds of medications from shots to pills I currently work weekdays from 2-8:30pm along with some weekends, but weekends I am off by 3pm. I also have periods of time where I don’t work for a couple of weeks here and there. I can come morning, afternoon, and night any day I am willing to bring a small animal into my home as long as they are ok with another large dog and small cat who are very friendly. I do not have a yard, but walks are given multiple times a day and I have a decent sized 2 story townhome with dog parks and turn outs close by. If I am to go to your home, I can do anything and everything. I have experience with giving fluids to cats and dogs for health issues and administering all kinds of medication

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Haystack
Mallorie took amazing care of our two cats with drop in visits while we were gone for two weeks. They loved her, and she loved them. Her updates were super helpful and full of pictures, which my family appreciated. Mallorie was very respectful of our home and very responsive. Would definitely have her take care of our cats again.
Our two kitties Bug and Mr. Petunia love Lucy, and she goes out of her way to make sure they are well cared for, including playing with them and giving them plenty of attention while we are gone. It’s a relief to know our kitties are so happy while we are away!
The only reason we feel good leaving our elderly cats to go on vacation is because we know Cora will take such amazing care of them! She's incredibly communicative, kind, caring, always goes above and beyond and is just an awesome person. I couldn't possibly think more highly of her, or be more forceful in my recommendation that if you're on the fence, just give her a shot - you'll be incredibly happy you did!
Kait was absolutely wonderful, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She took such loving, attentive care of Mira over Christmas, which gave me so much peace of mind during the holidays. Kait was reliable, communicative, and clearly very experienced with cats. She sent thoughtful updates and made sure Mira was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear Kait genuinely cares about the pets she watches, not just checking boxes but really spending quality time with them. I came home to a calm, content cat, which says everything. I would 100% book Kait again and feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you, Kait, for taking such great care of Mira!
Finding Audrey has been such a treat for us. She is smart and personable and she is extremely responsible and dependable. She took such wonderful care of our cat and our home. We are so pleased and relieved to find such a nice person to take care of our pet and keep an eye on things while we are away. We no longer need to feel guilty about burdening the neighbors. We think the cat misses her, she got so much extra special personal attention while we were gone!

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.

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 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.
