“Lauren dropped by our home for a quick drop in visit each day for a week just to scoop litter and feed and water the outside cat. We had a little hiccup one day. She was late arriving to our home but after she received my text message asking about that mornings drop in she quickly made her way there. She also refunded me for that visit. I would book with Lauren again in the future.”
“Brittnye was awesome! I contacted her last minute for a one time drop in while I was on vacation. She was at my house within the hour and took great care of my cats and guinea pigs. She followed instructions exactly and communicated well. Will use again!”
“Kayla was great. She responded quickly to my messages and did everything we asked. She sent me pics of my babies, which helped me know they were ok and being taken care of. We will definitely book her again when we travel.”
“We had a medical emergency and needed help with our cat who was left outside. Olivia accommodated our needs and helped with our girl until family was able to come into Town and stay. We appreciate her flexibility, responsiveness and care. Thank you Olivia!!”
“Sadie was great! She was very quick to respond, and she made us feel very comfortable. She volunteered to come over to our house prior to our trip to meet our cats. She was very attentive, and she kept us regularly updated while we were away. I will definitely look to book Sadie in the future.”
“McKenzie was fantastic! She took great care of my pets, kept me updated, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. She’s reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Bridgett showed up to drop in visits on time. I would book with her again in the future. She was kind enough to move some heavy packages in the garage for me that were delivered unexpectedly while we were gone.”
“Melissa is wonderful! Used her for a second time and will continue to use her. She is very caring and loves animals! She always send pictures and updates! Highly recommend!!”
“Hannah was great in taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She made everything simple and eased any worries we had about leaving our cats for two weeks. She's awesome and so sweet!”
“Kelly stayed at my house for 7 days with my cats. It was late when I got home and she had left lights on for me! The house was clean. The dishes were done. The litter area had been well kept. The mail was all in a pile. Their water dishes were good. I have all good things to say! It was very nice not having to worry about my boys.”
“I highly recommend Madison and Joshua. I needed cat sitters every other day for a month, and they were wonderful to work with throughout. One or both of them would visit for a half hour, taking care of litter boxes, food, and water, feeding the fish, and pulling in any mail or packages for me. I loved getting the photos in the 'report card' after each visit, and knowing the cats had consistent visitors who cared while I was gone. I will hire them anytime I'm traveling!”
“Jasmin is phenomenal! I adopted my two cats last November and I had a family vacation this June. I was so anxious about being away from them for 10 days. Jasmin is a great communicator, responding promptly to messages, and was so reassuring and very loving to my babies while I was away sending 1-2 photos daily. When I met her the day I dropped them off I knew I had chosen the perfect sitter!!💜”
“Savannah made it easy for us to be on vacation without worrying about our little goobers at home! She is incredibly knowledgeable, with a great temperament and personality. 10000% will book again and I greatly appreciate her work! 0 complaints”
About: Hello, I am a vet tech assistant and kennel tech with about 5 years of experience! I would love to care for your pets! Thanks! I would like to work part time. I am available throughout the week from the morning to early afternoons (8 am-4pm). My schedule can be adjusted if needed. I am willing to go on walks with dogs, house sitting is available when I am off work for dogs and cats! I am willing to work with you.
About: I'm highly skilled at reading animal body language. I have experience with anxious, temperamental, excitable, shy, and senior pets. I've cared for cats since a young age and have more recent hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I'm comfortable supporting both energetic younger pets and older pets who require a softer approach. I am able to handle animals gently, give oral/injection medications, routine care, play, and feeding. I am currently work part-time Monday through Wednesday from 10:00am-6:00pm. On Thursdays and Fridays, I'm fully available during the day and usually make plans around 6:00pm, but I'm always happy to stop by before or after. I'm completely available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for visits, drop-ins, or extended care. I always make sure I'm aware of any pet allergies, medical needs, and medications that must be given. If a medication has to be administered at a specific time, I will adjust my schedule to ensure your pet's safety and consistency. I take care to keep toxic plants, foods, and loose wires out of reach, and I maintain clean litter boxes and bowls throughout my visits. If certain pets cannot share a space, I will follow your instructions closely to keep everyone safe and comfortable. In case of emergencies, I have a reliable vehicle that pets can safely ride in if transportation is needed.
About: Growing up, I have always had pets. We have had both dogs and cats that I had to care for since a young age. As I’ve gotten older, I have been watching friends’ pets when they go out of town. In 2019, I made a Facebook post about my dog sitting that caught many people’s attention. I had many responses that led to lots of pet sitting that summer. Every summer since 2019, my schedule has been completely booked up with pet sitting in my area. I have experience with small dogs, big dogs, puppies, older dogs, and cats. I have experience giving both oral and injectable medications. I have spent time volunteering at the Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County, Southern Pines Animal Shelter, and the West Memphis Animal Shelter. I am very comfortable being around both dogs and cats, understanding their body language, and caring for them. I am a social work graduate student in the North MS area. I have an internship 3 days a week and class 2 nights per week. My best availability is Friday-Monday, because I don’t have class or internship on those days. I am unable to bring pets into my home because I have 2 roommates with 4 cats. However, I would love to care for your animals in your home! If your home is accommodating to your pets, then it should be no problem. I also have a car that I can put dogs in to take them to a dog park or to a walking trail.

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.

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 .

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.
