“Kimberly is so fantastic! I almost don’t want to say how good she is so no one else steals her! She took all the time it needed to get to know our very particular German Shepherd and now I’m pretty sure our dog likes her more than me! She took her for walks, brushed her, played fetch and gave her lots of love! She was also very sweet to our two cats. Highly recommend Kimberly for anyone who wants their fur babies well taken care of! She truly does treat them like they’re her own. Thank you Kimberly!!”
“Jesika did a great job taking care of my two kitties. She was very easy to communicate with and was very detailed and thorough. I appreciated the pictures she sent and my cats were doing great when I came back!”
“Dana is prompt and checks in with us while caring for our kitties with drop-in visits. She even brought a package into our house that was left on the porch! We know our fur babies are in good hands with Dana.”
“We have been using Wendy for a long time now and she always does a great job. We definitely trust her to check on our two cats and administer my cat’s meds while out of town. They love her!”
About: I grew up with dogs and now have two cats of my own, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I know how much they mean to you, and I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities: playful, shy, or somewhere in between! I try to keep their routine as normal as possible. I have experience with feeding, walks, litter box care, and playtime, and I pay attention to the little things so your pet feels safe and cared for. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. You can count on me to give your pet lots of care and attention! I’m currently on maternity leave and will soon be a stay-at-home mom while finishing my master’s in counseling, so I have a flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to give pets consistent attention, care, and check-ins throughout the day. I follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I handle feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific instructions. I give pets attention based on their personality and keep an eye out for any changes in behavior.
About: With a deep passion I have dedicated myself to caring for dogs in various capacities. My experience includes volunteering at local shelters where I provided companionship, exercise, and basic care to dogs in need. I have also honed my skills in managing diverse breeds by taking them on dog dates, ensuring they receive the socialization and mental stimulation they require. Additionally, I have fostered dogs through the app rover program, providing a loving temporary home until they find their forever families. My commitment to their well-being extends beyond basic needs, focusing on creating a nurturing environment that promotes their physical and emotional health. I am currently studying to take my state board exams as an esthetician. I’m just trying to have some money to afford my state board exams. I have a dog name snowball, i’ve had him since I was 7. I have been raised with dogs my whole life. They make me happy and truly grateful. How I care for others & my own dog is with love, care and respect. I will always respect their home and the clients home, by never leaving it a mess if one is made.
“Keliann is the best pet sitter! She has dropped in for us numerous times over the last few years. She is dependable and takes great care of our pets. Why board when your pets can be taken care of right at home!”
About: I grew up helping take care of the family pets; we had cats, dogs, fish, & rabbits! I’ve always loved taking care of pets and will never say no to an opportunity to meet new ones :) I have experience taking care of: cats, dogs, fish, turtles, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, & hamsters. I have experience medicating, feeding, and basic grooming. I routinely check for potential hazards and remove them from the environment. I’m currently unemployed due to the turbulent job market, so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets. When I’m not home taking care of my own animals, I’m out looking for work or a new place to volunteer. I’m always making sure there’s no choking hazards on my pets toys & making sure their water & food are always topped off. They always get extra love & brushing at the end of the day. (And maybe a couple extra treats if they’ve been good)
“I will not leave my dogs with anyone else.Ricardo is the most trustworthy and caring dog person there is. If he were to be unavailable I wrote just stay home. I have been all over the world and I have never worried about my dogs once because of Ricardo. He is Rover as far as I am concerned.”
“Ashlynn has been an absolute Godsend for my unexpected trip out of town. I felt comfortable knowing she has been coming in to check on my furbabies while allowing them to remain at home. She keeps me informed with pictures at every visit. I highly recommend her.”
“Sara was amazing with the boys. And so patient. My great Pyrenees can get pretty loud. She gave him his space and let him get used to her. She made multiple trips to meet them before the actual visits. This is my first trip leaving them. Sara sent pictures and kept me updated. Absolutely will use again.”
“Paige is a very nice person and so is her husband. From what I have experienced, she truly does love taking care of animals. My little lady took to her right away. I initially had hired Paige to house/pet sit for me but unfortunately had to cancel and she was very understanding and accommodating, which I really appreciated. I was also impressed with how prepared she was to ask all the right questions to prepare for the job. I have used her since and was nice to feel comfortable leaving my girl in her care. Highly recommend!”
About: I take on caring for sweet puppers in my spare time. I am a stay-at-home-mom to three sweet boys, 6 and under, and we love to play with pups and go on walks with them 💖 My partner, Travis, will help care for your furry friend if I must run an errand while your dog stays with us, but I will be the primary caregiver. It is very rare that we are all out of the home at the same time, and if so, it is never for long. I am comfortable administering medication as needed. I can care for any breed, however, some I cannot watch in my own home. I love tiny floofs, big lap dogs and everything in between. I have had a number of pets throughout my life and have loved every second of being around them. Pets are an important part to any family, big or small, and we look forward to looking after your pups and ensuring a safe, loving environment for them to thrive in while you are away. Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you and your pup! 💖 -Tara I am currently a stay-at-home-mom to three boys, 6 and under, so I am almost always home to hang out with kids and pups! The boys LOVE to go for walks, so we have no shortage of outside time - weather permitting. Pups receive regular walks, water breaks and lots of love and pets. We will pay careful attention to things owners mention like putting trash cans high-up and keeping our furry friends away from other dogs.
“This was our 2nd time booking with Sarah! She is fantastic with communication and is great at making sure everyone is taken care of, even when we get a little busy on vacation. I love how she cares for our animals and love the silly photos we always get. Will rebook every time!”
“Was great with handling my dog when she was nervous and had never met Chase. Wouldnt feel more comfortable with anyone else watching my dog after that and I will be using Chase in the future.”
“She was wonderful taking care of our two fur babies. She was great with communication. My husband and I were able to have a nice comfortable getaway and know that our fur babies were well taken care of. Will definitely use Maddy again”

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
