“Savannah is a dream! So professional and kind, an excellent communicator and a quick problem solver. Savannah cared for our chickens for nearly three full weeks and watched over the house and plants. She provided regular updates, was intuitive to care for the girls in the hot weather and allowed my time away to feel so much more at ease. I was so thrilled to return with thriving plants, and happy, calm chickens. Will definitely look to book with her again in the future, and recommend fully!”

“Savannah is awesome, I will definitely use her again for upcoming times that I'll be away. Having one dog with a heart murmur makes it difficult to leave home, so having someone I can trust to take care of him and my other dog is very freeing and reassuring.”

About: I’m a registered veterinary technician with over 15 years of experience looking for a side job. I have a background in emergency, general practice, behavior, and dermatology. I’m working relief shifts now so I have various availability to fit most pet parents needs. Whether that be drop in pet sitting/ enrichment or dog walking. I have 2 small dogs and 3 cats at home. So I can’t pet sit in my home but I’m happy to provide drop in services.
“Sam was great. He checked in on our new kitten and helped with those mid day zoomies. The kitten was very comfortable with him. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for pet care.”

“Sigrid was great! She came first for a meet and great to meet Ozzy and make sure he would be comfortable with her. Then when she came for the drop in visit, after feeding Ozzy she spent extra time with him —playing fetch and walking with him until he was worn out. She kept us updated with photos and videos during the visit and it was clear that Ozzy was having a great time with her. We are grateful that Sigrid took extra time to get to know Ozzy and make sure he was at ease with her — that’s not always easy for Ozzy, as he was mistreated in his former life. Sigrid is clearly a true dog lover, and I highly recommend her. Your pup will be in good, capable and loving hands with Sigrid!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, so I am very used to their behavior and I absolutely love being around them! I’ve dealt with senior dogs as well as puppies, so nothing will surprise me😂 I am currently a student, and I have many open hours that I am free to take care of your pet! I am free most nights to house sit as well. I have two dogs of my own and a cat so I am very used to having pets around!! If need be, I have experience putting pets into crates and administering medicine.
About: Hi! A little bit about me… I have grown up with animals for as long as I can remember. From farm summer camps to taking care of neighbor’s pets to adopting dogs and cats from the local shelter, I have always loved having animals in my life. With around eight years of professional pet care experience, I offer pet walking, overnight stays and day care visits for dogs, cats and other pets. My main goals are to ensure your pet is comfortable, happy and safe, and that the owner feels the same. I understand being away from your pet is hard, so I want to provide as much comfort as possible. I have had experience with young, senior and challenging pets. I also volunteered at NorthBay Animal Services and Petaluma Pet Pals. Both were great experiences and allowed me to get to know many different pups and kittens. I’m excited to meet your furry friend! I just graduated from college at the University of Oregon and am home for a few months. I am looking for some sweet pets to hang out with and care for! My main goals are to ensure your pet is comfortable, happy and safe, and that the owner feels the same.

“Alexander was fantastic! We highly recommend him. He took such great care of our large Lab Ollie. Alexander was letting us know how Ollie was doing throughout our trip. Great Communication. We'll definitely have him back for out future travels.”

“Tiffany took great care of our guinea pig and fish while we were out of town for a week during the holidays. She is an amazing petsitter and went above and beyond the care we were hoping for. Our guinea pig had last minute health issues, and Tiffany took on extra medication administration as well as wound care. She did an amazing job, and we can’t thank her enough.”


About: Hi! I’m Zahra, a dedicated dog sitter based in Sonoma County. I’ve cared for dogs, and cats of all sizes and personalities… Im an active person that loves any excuse to go to the beach or out for a hike. Have experience working with anxious, gentle, and special needs puppers. As well as large excitable breeds. Good with administering medications on schedule, based on the pets established routine with their human. With me you’ll get Daily photo/video updates Walks tailored to energy level Safe, clean environment Fast response time Feel free to message me with any questions! I work from home which provides plenty of extra time to spend with my animal friends. Since I am a very active person I find it quite lovely to have a reason to get up and out to enjoy the day. I have a fenced yard, and a very friendly female dog. Breakfast is at 9am, followed by walk and play time at 11am. Then some water, and rest. Dinner is at 5:30, followed by one more walk and/or play. I love a bed dog, but also respect kennel training, or if the owner prefers the dog sleep on their bed.
About: I have pet sat for my friends and family many many times I make sure the pets are fed, walked and are happy in the comfort of their own home. I have a flexible schedule as I am entering college. I am willing to work around school and provide great service to my fellow pet lovers. Walking daily, feeding on time, baths (if needed) and playtime. I want pets to feel secure and safe, even when their family is out of town.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a German Shepherd, a German Shorthaired Pointer, and three cats taught me how important patience, consistency, and care are for pets. I started pet sitting as a teenager for family friends, and through word of mouth I quickly became a trusted sitter for pets and homes of all kinds. One of my biggest pet-sitting jobs included caring for three dogs, 18 outdoor cats, and even feeding local crows and cranes! Having lived all over the country, I've continued to find joy in caring for animals wherever I go. I treat every pet like family and strive to keep them happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a young professional working a typical Monday–Friday schedule for a nonprofit organization. I'm available before and after work for walks, feedings, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'm happy to use my lunch break to stop by for mid-day potty breaks, walks, or check-ins. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, cared for, as close to their normal routine while you're away. 🐾 I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine. In my clients' homes, I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household rules to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, or simply keeping a pet company, I make sure each animal receives the attention and care they need. I also treat every home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things clean, secure, and well cared for.
“Lindsay is dependable and loving with our pets. She does a fantastic job handling all the medications and other pet duties. We trust her and appreciate her and highly recommend her.”

About: What sets me apart is the calm, cat-focused home environment I provide, combined with over 6 years of hands-on cat care experience. I specialize in creating a low-stress, clean, and structured space where cats can feel safe and comfortable, whether they are playful, shy, or senior cats needing extra patience. I pay close attention to each cat’s individual needs and routines, from feeding and enrichment to litter box hygiene and daily observation of behavior. I’m also experienced in giving gentle care and medication support when needed, always prioritizing the cat’s comfort and emotional well-being. Most importantly, I treat every cat like family—offering consistent affection, one-on-one attention, and a peaceful home environment designed to help them relax and feel secure while their owners are away. I work part-time and am home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Pet care is naturally integrated into my daily routine, including feeding, playtime, litter maintenance, and regular check-ins. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to give pets the attention, companionship, and supervision they need. My home is designed to be a safe and secure environment for pets. It has multiple layers of doors, a fully fenced yard, and security cameras at the front for added safety. All doors are kept closed at all times to prevent any chance of escape. I also have a calm, controlled indoor space with no dogs, no children, and a clean, structured setup for cats. I prioritize trust, safety, and routine—ensuring every pet feels secure, supervised, and comfortable at all times. Each cat is carefully monitored, and I maintain a quiet, stress-free environment where they can relax and feel at home.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life. I’ve owned cats, fish, aquatic animals, and two leopard geckos, including one I’ve cared for since I was seven years old. I’ve also pet sat for a friend’s two cats multiple times. I specialize in cats and small reptiles, especially leopard geckos, but I’m also comfortable caring for dogs, rodents, and small birds. I’m calm and patient, and I always strive to make pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I'm on summer break until late August and I do part time work remotely so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your pets, drop in for visits or potty breaks, or stay at your house full time if needed. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while caring for them in their own home. I follow all owner instructions, keep doors and enclosures secure, provide regular updates, and make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, caring for them through every stage from playful puppies to sweet senior years. That lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and behaviors. For the past eight years, I’ve also been the dedicated owner of a large dog, so I’m confident handling bigger breeds, strong pullers, and high-energy pups. Safety, consistency, and patience are always my priorities. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, a relaxed stroll, or attentive in-home care, I treat every pet like they’re my own with reliability, love, and plenty of tail-wagging attention. I work part-time at my current job so I am available at different times during the day! I have a flexible schedule so I can help you give your best friend some love or a break out of the house during your busy days. I care for pets in a way that keeps their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and household guidelines exactly as requested. I make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, affection, and clean water at all times. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize safety during walks and visits.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Haystack
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!
Erin was so great with my cat! I got lots of updates and she played with him a lot. My cat is usually very shy and he warmed up to her right away. I will definitely want to rebook in the future with her. She also cleaned up a messy hairball and tidied up after my cat when he knocked over the trash can. I am really grateful to Erin for her help. ❤️

I have used Ariel a few times now and really appreciate her. She is trustworthy, reliable, and communicative. My kitty is a scaredy cat and when he found a new hiding spot and Ariel couldn't find him once, she called to let me know and offered to stay longer than her booked time, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Ariel!

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 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.
