“Laura was an excellent cat sitter! She communicated clearly throughout the entire booking and always responded promptly, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated that she respected my cat's boundaries and let her warm up at her own pace instead of forcing interactions. It was obvious that she understands feline behavior and cares about making cats feel comfortable. I had a great experience, and I would absolutely book Laura again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Karen was very responsive to communication and kept me up on her schedule. She showed up as planned and made sure our 3 cats had everything they needed in our absence. I would definitely recommend Karen to anyone needing a trusted caregiver.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life. Dogs in my family since before I was born. Adopted a stray kitten when I was still a kid. I’ve also had birds, fish, and rats over the years. I started pet sitting for friends as a teenager, so I’ve been taking care of other people’s pets for a long time too. I’d love to get to know your four-legged friends and make sure they’re well taken care of while you’re away. I'm currently in between jobs so have a lot of time to spend spoiling your fur babies. I'm available for both mornings and evenings. I am familiar with crate training and I have legs, so I can walk your dog. Additionally, I have hands so I can scoop food out of a bin and/or a can and then put the food in a bowl. Refilling water bowls? Expert right here. Kitty litter? Very unfun but also necessary.
“The best pet sitters! I am so grateful for how Lauren & Layla went above and beyond during my month-long trip. My cats love them and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were safe with them! Will be rebooking on a regular basis!”
“Megan took absolutely wonderful care of our kitties while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such kind, attentive, and capable hands. She kept us updated, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and clearly treated them like her own. We came home to relaxed, well-cared-for cats and a home just as we left it. We’re so grateful for her care and would trust her again without hesitation.”
About: I’ve grew up having animals. From cats to dogs to some small pets. I can feed, bathe, or take them for a walk if need be. I currently work full time from 8am-4:30pm. Very flexible after I get off. I’m off on Saturdays and Sundays. I try to be as flexible as I can be :) I’m willing to take your dogs in the yard or walk them down the street if needed. If you prefer to crate your pet when you are not home I can do that as well. I'm comfortable with taking care of cats as well as reptiles. If they love hikes as well I would love to take them on one!
“Kathryn was so gracious in accepting this assignment with short notice and communicated very well while I was away. She took the time to give my love-bug feline plenty of attention and sent photos from each visit. She followed my care instructions and asked questions when they were not clear. Would feel comfortable booking her again”
About: I’m dedicated to keeping your pets safe and happy! My experience includes: fostering and training a 7 year old husky mix with behavioral problems and training my 3 year old dog since puppyhood with the help of a friend who is a behavioral dog trainer. I have also done overnight stays for senior dogs with specialized care needs due to PTSD. I have administered oral and eye medication to several dogs. I’m comfortable with most size breeds and would welcome a meet and greet. I’m currently studying for school, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available most early afternoons to evenings Monday through Sunday. I offer overnight stays as well as an extended stays. I offer multiple walks per day and enrichment time to dogs I sit for. I’m happy to crate your dog as needed and follow any routine medication, diet and commands that would maintain their safety and happiness. I routinely update clients daily on the status of their dogs with videos and pictures.
“Kirsten was great! She stepped in to help with some cat-sitting in a last-minute situation and was very responsive and kind. She took lots of pictures and videos and was able to get a shy, skittish cat to be playful and fun during the time she spent with her. Kirsten is obviously great at what she does and I'd recommend her to anyone needed their dogs or cats watched. She is caring, attentive and communicative and I knew my cat was in good hands while I was away!”
“Madilyn took very good care of our cats. Our power went out during her stay and she was very communicative about the situation. We very much appreciate that quality in a cat sitter. We will ask her to house sit for our cats in the future. We highly recommend her services.”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds, from tarantulas and fish to horses, donkeys, and just about everything in between! Whether your pet has fur, feathers, scales, or eight legs, I'm committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I have extensive experience working with puppies, senior pets, and reactive dogs. I'm comfortable training puppies by reinforcing good habits and routines, administering oral and topical medications, and providing the extra patience and attention that senior pets need. I'm also known for my ability to build trust with reactive, anxious, or shy animals by moving at their pace and creating a calm, low-stress environment. Every pet is unique, and I treat each one like they're my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they're in experienced, capable hands.

“Tricia took great care of my cat while I was away for a few days! She took the time to play with her and send adorable photos (in addition to the planned caregiving tasks). Tricia was professional and very kind. I will absolutely be having her back to cat sit again!”
About: I’m currently retired so I have plenty of time to give your cat or kitten the attention they deserve. I am available weekdays and weekends. I’ll have time to change or scoop litter, feed and give fresh water to your cat. If you like I can also play with them. I will make sure your cat does not escape and enter and leave fully aware of where your cat is. I will be the only person entering your home and only enter rooms you point out unless your cats are hiding when I do a head count. I would suggest you close doors to rooms you don’t want me or your cats to enter. You can trust me with your pet. My vet or staff will vouch for me.
About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved being around them. I also have experience dog sitting for a friend, including staying overnight to care for her dogs while she was away.

I’ll make sure to follow any instructions you leave for your pets and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care while making sure they’re safe and comfortable in their own home.
About: Your pets are family, and they deserve the same care, attention, and affection they receive at home. I provide dependable, genuine pet care with a personal touch—treating every dog like they’re my own. I rescued my sweet girl Hashbrown when she was just a tiny puppy, cared for friends and family pets my entire life.I enjoy animals and their company plain and simple. I’m currently available M-F after 2pm for all your pet care needs. I can make myself available for extended care throughout the week if necessary and can do overnight stay as well. We have a decent sized fenced in back yard and a very friendly small breed puppy, so your puppy will feel very welcome. I am confident in my ability to care for your pup and their needs!
About: As a fur mom to two, I know that it is a huge relief to find someone to love your pets the way that you would. Let me be that person! Along with taking care of my own dogs and multiple family pets, I also have previous experience working at a vet as a kennel tech. Want to include your pet in your wedding day? I can help with that too! I have five years of experience in the wedding industry and have helped manage pets during the ceremony and photos. Let me handle your furry family members while you enjoy your day! I currently work a remote job with a flexible schedule which allows for me to easily fit in drop in visits or walks throughout the day. I know that each pet requires their own form of love and attention. I will take the time to get to know your pet, what they like and don't like, and make sure that everything is handled while they are in my care. It is very important to me to build a bond with your pet so that you both feel comfortable.
“We couldn't be happier with the care our seven cats received from Erika! She visited twice a day from Wednesday through Saturday, handling feedings, litter boxes, and most importantly, spending an hour each visit keeping everyone company. Managing a large group of cats is no small feat, but she handled it beautifully and gave us total peace of mind while we were away for our son's wedding. She is reliable, communicative, and incredibly accommodating. We highly recommend her and will absolutely look to book her again!”
About: I have volunteered at the Feline Urgent Rescue & Rehab in Waynesville, NC. I have 4 cats and 1 dog in my family home and I love all animals!! I am currently a college student at UNCG. I have lots of time to play and care for your fur babies after class and studying. I can follow all the rules for you and your pet. I can crate them if needed, let them outside and keep an eye on them. I will treat your pets with respect and relay any information to you.
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hillsdale
Amanda took amazing care of our two cats while we were out of the country for two weeks. She sent a bunch of cute photos every day and detailed updates, including how they were eating/drinking and using the litter box. She spent plenty of time playing and cuddling with them, too. Knowing they were getting so much care and attention made it much easier to enjoy our trip. We’d book her again in a heartbeat!
Thank you to Rover for sending me Amanda. What a blessing! First time ever leaving my cat for multiple days and I could not have been happier with his care. It is obvious Amanda loves her job and has such a kind soul. She did everything she offered and then some, went the extra mile. Thanks again so much from Sox and me!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
