“Clareese was so sweet with my girls. She sent a million pictures and even a video, so I knew they were in good hands. Would absolutely book with her again in the future!!”
“My high maintenance kitty was so well-cared for - he usually is a nervous wreck when I get back from a trip but not after Breanna looked after him and I'm so grateful ??”
“Rose was excellent to work with. She was extremely flexible and attentive as we dealt with a fluid trip out of town due to the loss of a family member. She dealt with my diabetic cat’s medication smoothly and took such wondering care of my two cats while I was away. All instructions on feeding and cleaning were followed excellently and when I returned a day early, Rose was incredibly accommodating. We are incredibly grateful to have worked with Rose during a difficult time in our lives, she put our mind at ease with our cats while we were gone - we hope to work with her again!”
“Tony did a wonderful job dropping in on my cat. Tony spent a lot of time getting to know her and from his updates I could tell she was very comfortable when he was visiting. Great check-ins, fun pictures, and I felt very assured my cat was being well cared for by Tony.”
“Ashley was fantastic and I would use her services again in a heartbeat. She was extremely thorough in following the instructions I left and reached out with questions for anything that was unclear. Her reports were detailed with plenty of cute pictures for reassurance.”
“Alexander listened well to all the instructions we gave around pet care for our cat Willow and followed through perfectly. He is very responsive and responsible. We are very satisfied and highly recommend him.”
“Lucas was very reliable and professional in caring for our cat. Lucas even did some useful things we did not ask him to do, such as take out and bring back our garbage can.”
“Divya was amazing! I think the biggest compliment comes from our cat, who was remarkably calm after we returned from quite a long trip. Divya clearly has a passion for earning the trust of animals and making them feel safe. She left detailed reports and photos after every visit and always sought to make progress with our pet, finding more ways to make him feel comfortable and secure. We were very fortunate to hire such a passionate and detail oriented caretaker.”
“Disha was a loving and caring sitter, our little furball was very nice and comfortable with her, she finished all of our requests perfectly, and would recommend her to anyone in need of a wonderful sitter!”
“Thank you for visiting with our kitties they were well cared for and so cool Nina popped out to visit. They hide . They are so happy when we came home. We will let you know when we are going to travel again.”
“We always have the best time on vacation when Allyson is cat sitting at our house because we know we don’t have to worry about anything. The cats are so cared for and the house is so clean when we get home. 10/10 forever.”
About: I work a corporate 9-5, M-F, but I can be available early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I primarily work from home, so I may be able to make mid-day drop-ins work if absolutely necessary. I respect kitties boundaries and preferences and strive to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I know how sensitive they can be to strangers or change, so I would love to follow whatever your standard routine is.
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
“Teneisha took great care of my cat, Hank, at my place, while I was away for a couple of weeks. She sent just the right amount of updates and pics, and my slow-to-warm-up cat cozied up to her quickly.”
About: There hasn’t been a time where there wasn’t a cat or dog running around my house! All of my animals have lived past the age of 15, so they are well taken care of. I love all animals and really would save them all if I could. My Rover promise to you is to treat your pets like I treat my own with nothing but love, kindness, and definitely some treats ;)! I set my own schedule by working with special needs adults, so I can usually be flexible if given at least a few hours notice. I have a senior dog that is 15 years old and her name is Reese. I also have a very hyper 4 year old Great Pyrenees/Anolian shepherd who absolutely loves everyone! I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and also dogs with disabilities. I have been in the medical field for over 20 years, so it feels like Christmas morning every day when I get back to my fur babies. I’m at a point in my life where my daughter is an adult, so I have finally have extra time again. I would treat your pet like I treat my own babies!
About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs! I have experience feeding, playing, bathing, walking, and even training young dogs with simple things. I was able to gain experience taking care of dogs because I have a dog of my own who is now a senior. I’m also a dog walker at my local animal shelter which allows me to interact with dogs of all ages and different behaviors. Aside from dogs, I also have experience feeding and playing with cats. I have two cats who are friendly, love cuddles, neck scratches, and are amazing with my dog! I’m a college student who commutes to school. I have more flexibility during breaks but throughout the school year weekends are what would work best. I have experience with both cats and dogs. This has allowed me to work with animals that have different behaviors. I believe that animals require patience and love just like any other being. If needed, your pet will be in good hands in my home since my cats and dog get along very well.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Homestead
Ashley is amazing! Her care and attention to the cats made it easier to enjoy my time away, knowing that they were in good hands. She went above and beyond to make sure they were safe, healthy, and not stressed out. She communicated clearly and sent lots of pictures. Great job!
Jennifer is such a lovely and trustworthy person, and all of my pets adore her. I love the detailed updates she gives, as well as all of the pictures. You can tell she really loves working with animals, and she's amazing at it, too. I would highly recommend Jennifer if you want the best for your puppies or kitties!
Divya was amazing! She sent us incredibly detailed daily updates while checking in on our three cats and you could tell how much she loved hanging out with them. She also went above and beyond to help us out when a smoke detector ran out of batteries and started beeping while we were gone. We would absolutely love to have her back!
Rylee watched our 3 cats during an extended vacation and it gave us peace of mind that they were being well taken care of. The cats usually find unique ways to destroy the house while we are out but we came back to everything in its place. And our cats are shy, but bonded with Rylee after just a few days and we loved getting pics of them getting plenty of pets.

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 .

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 .
