“We have used Kelsey several times and are never disappointed. Great communicator, super pictures and goes out of her way if you need something done at your house. Highly recommend.”
“Emily was super communicative and caring with my girl which I really appreciate since she is special needs. I will definitely be using her for any future needs!”
About: I currently assist an animal trainer and behaviorist with training service dogs. I have also assisted her in large dog births. I have learned how to dress wounds. I am also training my own service Great Dane. I am currently free all day, so I have plenty of time to make sure your babies are cared for and loved just as they deserve. I would be able to take them on walks (or just potty breaks, depending on what they need), and I can feed them breakfast, lunch, and dinner. When first meeting your babies, I let them lead the introduction. Meaning I dont force them to sniff me or interact with me. Its purely on their time. Same goes for anytime I interact with them. I am protective and observant, if something happens to your baby under my care you will be the first to know!
“Amazing sitter! She sent so many pictures on the rover card and went above and beyond during the booking when there was a emergency. She followed all the instructions carefully and was always on-time. Will definitely book again! Highly recommend”
“I LOVED having Rachael take care of our kitties while we were away. She sent a whole batch of pictures every single drop-in and asked questions where needed to ensure everything was going smoothly. I felt so confident they were getting the best care (playtime, smooches, etc) and will for sure be booking with her again! 🥰”
“Brianna is the kitty whisperer! One of my cats is super shy and doesn’t always come out when sitters come but she came out on Brianna’s first day! Brianna was super communicative, asked a lot of great questions to ensure she handled my babies needs with care and took the best pics of them both. We will definitely use Brianna for our future needs❤️❤️”
“Mary is wonderful and sweet, and was willing to take a rather long drive for us, due to location confusion in Rover settings at the time of booking. My dogs enjoyed her company, and she handled both German Shepherds well, one of which who is an extremely high energy and drive puppy. I highly recommend Mary.”
“Lanae did drop-in visits for 4 days for our 3 kitties. She did such a great job! We received photos and updates daily on how our babies were doing. She fed them, played with them and cuddled wit them, as well as changed their litter box daily. She communicated everything really well and was super nice and friendly. The cats seemed happy when I got home and I didn’t need to immediately tend to one of their chores before I was able to spend some time with them. We plan to have Lanae do drop-in visits for us again in a few weeks so we can be at ease that our kitties will be just as happy!”
About: Hi there! I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, caring for pets like dogs, cats, and even ferrets. I’m currently in college studying to become a vet tech and work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I care for pets of all sizes and personalities. I started pet sitting in August of last year and have loved every second of it! I provide personalized care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, and I treat every pet like family. Let me know how I can help care for your furry friends—I’d love to meet them! I am currently a student, and my work schedule varies weekly, typically ranging between 6:00 AM and 6:30 PM. However, I pride myself on being highly flexible and am happy to accommodate your needs with clear and timely communication. I currently have two dogs at home—a pit mix and a greyhound mix. My pit mix does not get along with other dogs, so I have experience managing and keeping dogs safely separated when necessary. I am also experienced in administering medications and ensuring pets receive the care they need. Additionally, I provide detailed updates and photos throughout the day to keep you informed and at ease.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! From the moment he walked in, our cats immediately took to him—which honestly never happens. They’re usually shy around new people, but they were relaxed, curious, and even affectionate right away. It was clear he has a natural connection with animals. He was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated with messages and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and everything just as we left it. It’s such a relief knowing we have someone we can truly trust. We’ll absolutely be booking with him”
About: Hi, I’m Tia! As a lifelong animal lover, a mom, and a proud pet parent to three fur babies of my own, I know exactly how much trust it takes to leave your four-legged family member in someone else's care. That’s why my promise to you is simple: I will treat your pet exactly like my own. I am incredibly blessed to live on over a full acre of land, giving your dog plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play to their heart's content. With over 10 years of experience as both a pet owner and a dedicated dog sitter, I am well-versed in managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your pup wants to spend the day fetching in the big backyard or curling up on the couch for some family snuggle time, they’ll find a safe, loving, and attentive environment here. I work from home with a flexible working schedule. I am an early bird, and I love to get out and about taking walks with my kids and just spending time as a family. I typically like to meet your animals energy needs where they are. I have two dogs both super sweet and friendly. One senior and one middle aged. Both of girls will gladly keep your pups company and play with them. Or give them space as needed. It's definitely an adjustment coming to a new home even for a few days so we give your animals space if needed or time to adjust.
About: I’ve always been happiest around animals. Between my background in Veterinary Technology, experience in dog grooming, volunteering at my local animal shelter, and having pets my whole life, I’ve had the opportunity to work with all kinds of personalities. I love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and understood. Animals have always been a big part of my life. Pet care naturally fits into my routine through my experience caring for my own pets, volunteering at an animal shelter, and my animal care background. I enjoy providing reliable attention, companionship, and care for pets. I focus on making each pet feel comfortable by following their normal routine and paying attention to their individual personality and needs. I have experience with a variety of animals through my personal pets, shelter volunteering, grooming training, and animal care education. I prioritize safety, patience, communication with owners, and providing a positive experience while they’re away.
About: Here's a shorter version: --- I've had dogs my whole life and currently share mine with a Golden Retriever and a Chihuahua mix — so I'm just as comfortable with big, energetic breeds as I am with small, spunky ones. I've worked as both a dog sitter and dog walker, and I treat every pup like my own. Consistent routines, lots of love, and total peace of mind for you while you're away. I currently have one availability and am free anytime! Some days I do serve at a restaurant, but I only work 2-3 days a week I have past experience as a dog sitter and can adapt to any differing schedules you may need! I know some dogs need special care :)
About: I’ve watched young puppies to older puppies and cat and treated every animal with love and respect so they feel safe, seen, and cared for. I work online so my daily work is flexible. I can work anywhere and adapt my schedule to spend time with pets throughout the day. I am great at following or creating helpful routines or help the animals feel safe and access food,water, play, sleep, walks, and fun outside activities.
About: I started caring for pets in school by looking after classmates pets and later helping neighbors. I’ve been around animals my whole life and currently have four French Bulldogs who are like my sons. I love treating pets as family, celebrating their lives, and including them in my daily routine whenever possible. I have experience with both puppies and senior pets. I am patient, reliable, and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am currently on vacation, which allows me to have a flexible schedule to play with, walk, and fully care for your pet. I am available from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, both weekdays and weekends. I provide reliable and attentive care in the client’s home. I always follow instructions carefully, respect the home, and ensure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I give them exercise, attention, and affection to keep them happy and relaxed.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, lizards and more since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for years to care for their pets. I’m currently unemployed and a stay at home mom. The kids are going back to school and I’d really love to try and fill my day with some activities that bring me joy, such as caring for sweet fur babies. I feed, groom and bathe, and play with all the pets I’ve been responsible for since the age of 10. I can’t wait to meet yours!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hopeful. On Rover:

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.
