“Baylin was great, Rolo is a very anxious and took some time to warm up to Baylin, Baylinn was calm and patient and Rolo eventually warmed up to him and the drop in went well, Roscoe loved Baylin and was happy to be pet the whole time, we will definitely be using Baylin again.”
“Coralie watched Beau while we were away for our wedding week and gave us SO many lovely updates, it almost felt like he was here with us! Not a single worry about his eating or allergies because she was so on top of it. She’s the best sitter ever!!!”
About: Just like cats, I’ve had several dogs, big or small. I’ve helped at my local shelter, feeding the dogs their medication, and spending long hours understanding them. I’m currently unemployed, I’ll have all day to tend to your pups/kitties! I’m currently studying virtually, so I can always prioritize them above all. I have a large yard and several parks in my vicinity/nature trail. I have a 2500 sq ft floor, meaning I have plenty of room for a fuzzy friend.
“Samuel was a wonderful sitter! He was very attentive and responsible, he sent great summaries and pictures, and was flexible when fitting me in last minute. My rambunctious kitty had a great with him!”
“Cat parents - look no further than Mary for your kitty sitting needs! Mary kept us at ease with our three kitties during a trip. She is very communicative and shared plenty of routine updates as well as whenever something was a bit off with the cats or the house. All of our instructions were followed purrfectly and Mary treated our cats with a lot of care. If you're a cat person looking for another cat person to watch your kitties then I highly recommend Mary!”
About: My name is Tiana Palmer. Born & raised in Baltimore, MD by way of Dallas, TX. I travel back and forth from both areas for work and open to welcoming new clients as the fall/winter season is approaching. I have always had a passion for taking care of animals, especially canines. I have plenty of clients who can vouch that at all times their dog, cat, even a turtle can be trusted in my hands. With my personable spirit and love for the animals I have been recognized by my peers and colleagues on numerous occasions about my enthusiasm and passion for care taking. My availability is pretty open. I’m usually free for walks in the morning til the evening. If it’s overnights I will follow the client’s schedule. I have extensive experience in animal welfare, animal behavior and language. Also, prompt if meds are needed for pet. The schedule such as feedings, walks, baths and etc. that the client has for their animal it will be as followed.
About: Hi! I’m Bella Mason! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, grew up surrounded by animals, and even started my own pet-sitting business back home, which did really well! I’ve always had a huge love for animals and strive to be a reliable sitter who makes every pet feel like family. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies and just want someone you can trust to take the best care of them! I have experience with all types of animals, from dogs + cats, to goats, chickens, and hedgehogs. I am a college student at the University of Maryland. I would prefer not to schedule anything on Wednesdays, because that is my late night of classes, but all other days I am able to drop in before and after my classes. I unfortunately cannot petsit in my apartment, but I love to ask my client's to provide me "instructions" with every detail possible. I like to do meet-in-greets with animals/clients to ensure it is a good fit. I will follow instructions closely and precisely to ensure their routine stays in-tack.
“Annika was very easy to work with and took great care of our cat Jerome. She helped us out on short notice and we really appreciated all the photos she sent of our cat while we were away.”
About: Pet care is an easy part of my routine! I have a flexible schedule and enjoy making time each day to provide reliable, loving care while keeping cats comfortable in their own home. I care for every cat as if they were my own by following their normal routine, keeping their space clean, and respecting their unique personality. Whether they want to play, cuddle, or simply have quiet company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Virginia took excellent care of Louis while we were out of town for 10 days. We were so happy to come back to a healthy happy cat and clean house - he had no accidents! Virginia went above and beyond to care for him and make sure everything was in order. Would definitely rebook!”
“Erin really did me a "solid" and was able to watch my kitties last minute for the holidays. Always kept me up-to-date on visits and also provided some very cute pics during the visits.”
About: I’ve help my friends taken care of different types of dogs when they are away. I understand dogs can feel anxious when their owners are gone, so I give them calm, consistent companionship. I’m working full time from Monday to Friday with every Friday work remotely. More availability from Friday to Sunday.My boyfriend works 100% remotely and he can help me too. I love spend time with furry friends. I care for each pet based on their individual personality, routine, and needs. In a client’s home, I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, medication if needed, and any other parts of their normal routine. I know many cats feel most comfortable when things stay familiar, so I’ll give them space when they want it and plenty of attention when they’re ready for it. I’ll also keep their environment clean and secure and send regular photos and updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: Growing up, my house was full in the best way possible. Every pet was treated like family, and I learned early on that each animal has its own personality, needs, and way of showing affection. I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, hamsters, chinchillas, snakes, guinea pigs, fish, and more. That range means I’m comfortable with more than the usual routine. I pay close attention to body language and habits, and I can keep you updated with photos and notes. I’ll treat your pet the way I’d want my own pets to be treated! I’m working full-time from 10am-7pm, but I’m flexible outside of those hours. I’m also a graduate student, so I know how to use my time wisely. I like to stay busy. I have a secure house and I’m very respectful when entering someone else’s home. I’ll leave everything as-is and perform tasks with ease and composure.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hillandale
Rachel has a confident, calm and caring approach to pet care. She is professional, on time and flexible with the needs of each of the dogs and cat (and me!) Rachel took the time to understand each of their personalities and bonded with them, and provided fantastic communication and feed back during the entire booking period.
Kim was super professional and took great care of our two cats. She was organized, communicative, and spent plenty of time playing with our cats during her daily visits. We got lots of great pictures and detailed updates too! I’d definitely recommend Kim to others.
We had a great experience with Jane! She was reliable, attentive, and took wonderful care of our Buddy cat. I especially appreciated that she made sure she actually saw our cat before leaving each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cared about making sure everything was okay. We felt very comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Marika checked in on our two cats while we were on vacation. She was thorough in her communications, took great pictures, and gave our cats excellent care. They were peaceful and calm when we got home, a sure sign that they were happy while we were gone. Were very grateful!
Nichole took care of my two cats (and my plant) while I was gone for two days. One of my cats is anxious but he warmed up to her, much to my surprise (he usually hides when guests are over). She was also very gracious and accommodating when my itinerary changed at the last minute. I highly recommend her as a cat sitter and would work with her again.
Joe took wonderful care of our cat Sunday. He sent so many amazing photos and bonded with our weird cat pretty quickly. He checked in each day with us daily to let us know how our cat was doing. He’s very responsive and very responsible and we really appreciate the fact that we have someone to trust with our cat. Thanks Joe.
Ashley did a great job caring for our cats! The first time she came over to meet our girls, she asked really thoughtful questions about them and their routine. This told me she really cared about what she was doing and our cats were in good hands. She did a great job taking care of our kitty that gets medicine, and was able to adapt when our girl wasn't being super cooperative. We always got lots of cute pictures, and great updates on their Rover cards that made us less homesick. I feel like I can look forward to more trips, knowing that Ashley did such a great job with our fur babies!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
