“Katrina was great! Both of my cats looked forward to her coming by every day. I was glad to know they were well looked after—she sent lots of photos and videos so I could see for myself! 10/10 would book again.”
About: i have taken care of a lab and a sweet tortie cat throughout my life! i have also walked/fed/sat for several pets, including single dogs and cats, dog and cat combinations, and multiple cats and dogs. I am recently graduated from college and am looking to fill my free time! I currently am working a day-shift job (9:30-6) and am willing to care for animals both before and after those hours. i make sure that the pet feels comfortable (or like it can tolerate) my presence before most activities! a lot of how i care for my animals are very schedule based, usually they even tell me in their own ways when they are ready/want to walk or be fed!
About: I am a true animal lover. I’ve had dogs my whole life, but also lived with cats, medium dogs, even the largest dogs (I used to have a St. Bernard so I’ve seen it all.) I’m hoping to get some extra walkies in with new fur friends here and there. Or maybe check up on your fur baby while you’re at work or out of town. I treat all animals like my own and will respect them just like I do with my own sensitive girl. I have to give my dog her oral meds on a strict schedule every day and check her for side effects throughout the day, such as bruising, thirst, blood in the stool… I monitor her daily for all of this as well as giving her outside time every couple of hours to run, play ball or tug-of-war, and then end of day walkies. I definitely have her built into my every day routine. I plan my weeks around her appointments and pill times. My top most consideration is always what does my pet need and what do they expect of me for their unique day-to-day? Do they like to snuggle or do they want to run outside? I like to consider what the specific pet needs out of me and accommodate. My girl is very anxious and high energy so she needs lots of running time, but she also loves her night time cuddles before bed. I will care for pets the way they need me and that’s on their terms because they’re all different.
“Madilyn was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we were so happy. She was caring and attentive toward our pet, and we felt like we could relax on vacation knowing he was in capable hands.”
About: Experienced veterinary technician assistant with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. Skilled in medication administration and comfortable caring for pets of any age or size. I go to school and work a job but I also find myself with lots of free time during the week. I would like to fill that time. I use the necessary precautions in regards to the animals breed, size, age, and weight in order to maintain a healthy environment for the animal.
“Avital, you took such great care of our Betty! Thank you for your pictures, communication, and thoughtfulness. We are excited to have you back with Betty next weekend! Thank you!!!”
About: I have had a deep love for animals since I was a young child. Growing up I have always had at least one pet in my house, but when I was 7 I started actively taking care of them, which only increased my adoration for them. Whenever I am with animals I treat them with the philosophy that they give us nothing but love, and it is up to us to make sure they get that unconditional love back. I have watched dogs who were sick and required attentive and medicinal care, and I also have watched a dog and her newborn puppies. I am looking forward to expanding the dogs I know and hope I can show your animals the love they deserve in your absence! I'm very flexible with scheduling! When it comes to planning, I am willing to do both sporadic watching and walking or set weekly schedules. I am here to work for the schedule and needs of you and your pets! I know that each pet has specific needs and particulars, so I am willing to do what works best for them. Their comfortability comes first!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was just a kid. You can count on me to make sure that your pup is well cared for and loved while we watch them. I have open availability and will be around. I will communicate with you should I need to step out for a moment for any reason. I have a dog of our own named Cap who is a lab/hound mix and four short hair cats (Anri, Mori, JoJo, and Astora). All of my pets have been fixed. When watching your pets I will ensure their safety and make sure that they are well cared for.
About: I had a dog of my own and have been dog sitting for friends for years. I’m not afraid to give meds and clean up messes. More than happy to help :) Currently, I am working part time at a dispensary and am a traveling hairstylist and need to make more money. I’ve definitely got time to help :) My dog got a daily allergy pill in the morning before his 10min walk. I cleaned his ears once a week … unfortunately, he was prone to ear infections so I had to keep a close eye on them.
About: I've walked dogs before, but I am not as experienced with dogs as I am with cats, however, I like dogs and hope to get more experience caring for them. I currently attend university, I'm also a student athlete, but I'd love to make some extra cash and I really love animals. I am studying animal behavior at school. For both cats and dogs, I will do whatever asked of you in terms of how often to feed them, take them out, medicate them, etc. However my schedule is very busy and I might not be able to go to your house multiple times a day.
“Katie was excellent! Professional, thoughtful, patient, and communicative. We boarded our cat with her, and she did a wonderful job acclimating him to a new space and monitoring his adjustment, and making sure his needs were met. Would love to use her for our next trip.”
About: I have been working with cats and dogs professionally for over 15 years, including as a full time walker and sitter, as a daycare group leader, as management for a dog walking company, and as a kennel attendant in 4 different boarding facilities. I have managed groups of dogs and trained new daycare employees on dog body language, aggression, and group play safety. I have worked with aggressive dogs, fearful dogs, reactive dogs, as well as puppies, seniors, and dogs with disabilities. Animals are my life and I wouldn't want to be doing anything else! *I am not currently certified in dog first aid/CPR but I have taken the course multiple times. I also have not administered injections to a dog or cat before but I am confident I would be able to perform them with a quick demonstration. I am a full time dog walker and sitter, so all days of the week are available and I am open for the holidays. Send me a message and we will go from there! I will leave your home exactly as I found it or better, I always plan to take out the trash on the last day of a pet sitting job and I will follow your instructions carefully about waste bags and house rules. I understand I am a guest in your space and I always take that seriously!
“Ashley was great! She was prompt with pictures and updates. The cats warmed up to her by the second day, and she fed them on schedule and played with them each day. It is evident she loves animals! We would highly recommend Ashley if you are looking for a pet sitter! Ashley seems to have a gentle, loving spirit. She will provide TLC for your pet(s).”
“Amanda was great. She did a meet and greet which was great. She communicated when she visited our kitty and provided pictures and a video. We would definitely use Amanda again.”
About: I had had three dogs in the time since I was six years old, one being a lab mix and two being Dobermans. I have experience with reactive dogs subsequently, and am not afraid of big or little dogs at all, even if they aren’t the nicest. I have done several week-long dog sits for a former client, as well as a three-week long dog sit for a coworker. I loving long walks myself, and they are even better with a furry companion. I currently work Monday-Friday, 8-4, so I would be happy to do some evening walks for those who work late, board dogs over the weekend at my home, or watch dogs in your home. I also love cats and have one myself, and can check on cats before or after work. I currently work Monday-Friday, 8-4. I can board dogs at my home overnight, and for full weekends. I can also provide dog walking services before or after work. I also love cats, and would be happy to do drop ins or watch cats in their home overnight. Unfortunately I am unable to board cats in my home, since I have one of my own. Do not hesitate to reach out! I live in a home that I own, with one cat of my own. Dogs and cats alike are more than welcome to sleep on the bed or furniture, and I have plenty of places for them to hang out as well as necessary equipment (water and food bowls). We have an unfenced yard, and we have two acres set back from the road and down a hill on our property.

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.

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.
