“Sara was super easy to communicate with and provided excellent care for our two cats over a long vacation, one of whom required special medication. We would happily book with Sara again!”
“Caroline did an excellent job taken care of my cats, she followed my instructions perfectly, and gave me daily updates, and even checked in with me after I got home. I will definitely rehire her as I know my cats are in good care.”
“Kelly was a wonderful cat and house sitter! She was responsive to my communications, kept me informed about my cats’ happenings, and was a pleasure to interact with. It’s wonderful to have peace of mind when I travel and Kelly provided that!”
“As a very extra loving cat momma, it makes traveling so hard for me to leave them. This was the first big trip we went on with needing a sitter. We carefully selected Kaitlyn and she exceeded our expectations. Kaitlyn followed every detail of our instructions and she was amazing with her communication throughout our trip, which was so comforting for a worry bug like myself. We have a special needs kitty that needed a pill given daily and she was able to do that even. She was very kind and loving to our furbabies and we couldn’t thank her enough for it. She even did a drop in on xmas eve and xmas. Thank you so much Kaitlyn! We would 100% hire you again.❤️ Lilly, David, Yoko and Teako.”

“Megan was great! Super communicative, knew all the right questions to ask, was flexible with scheduling drop ins with my cat, and sent tons of photos and detailed notes. Very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend to others and book again.”
“Annelise was amazing! She took great care of my dog and even helped me out with a new dog bed and accessories for him. She took him out on walks and treated him like he was one of her own fur babies. I’d highly recommend Anneslie to anyone looking for someone they can trust”
“Audrey was great and helped me out on a very last-minute request for care. Milton took to her immediately at the meet and greet. I appreciate that she spent more time with him on the 2nd check-in. Would definitely book her again!”
About: I have had pets all while growing up. I have had two bigger dogs and I have a cat at my parents house. I have help neighbors watch and walk there dogs when they are gone. I am currently working part time which allows me to have a lot of flexibility. This allows me to have more time to care for animals. I make sure to walk or play with them regularly! Always keeping an eye on them so make sure they’re safe and behaving. I also want them to be comfortable with me so making sure I introduce my self in mine or there home correctly.
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, lizards, and other reptiles. While I don't have professional pet care experience, I'm the person my friends, family, and neighbors trust whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets while they're away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, cleaning up after them, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own 💛 I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry (or scaly!) family member, and I'm committed to providing dependable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I currently work part time in the service industry and on my days off I love to be outside and mobile! My job starts at 6 am most days so even on days that I work, I end up having a lot of free time that I would love to fill working with animals 💛 Each pet takes time to get to know and gain trust! I am excited to meet your fur baby and take that special time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy.
About: Hi! My name is Izzy, and I’m a teacher with a big heart for animals. I’ve always loved being around pets, and I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for them like family. At home, I have a 9-year-old tripod dog, which has given me a lot of experience with patience, adaptability, and attentive care. Caring for a dog with unique needs has taught me how to read animal behavior closely and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and great at building trust—qualities I bring into pet sitting and dog walking. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, extra attention, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they are well cared for and happy while you’re away. I work full time 7:30-3:30 Monday to Friday with weekends free. I am off for the summer starting May 28th! Outside of work, my attention is all theirs! I provide safety and dependable care by sticking closely to your pet’s normal routine and paying attention to the little details that keep them comfortable. I make sure doors, gates, and entry points are always secure to prevent escapes, and I’m careful during walks and visits to keep your pet safe at all times. I follow feeding, medication, and care instructions exactly, and I always keep a close eye on behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being. Whether it’s a dog needing exercise and structure or a cat who prefers a calm, familiar environment, I adjust my care to fit their needs. If anything seems off, I’ll communicate right away so you’re always in the loop. I’m reliable, organized, and consistent. You can count on me to show up on time, follow directions carefully, and treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own
About: Hello! My name is Steph and I have been caring for animals my whole life. I would love to meet your pets and give you one less thing to worry about while you’re away. I have had dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, geckos, bearded dragons and a tarantula. I am experienced with animals that have special needs and sigh administering medications. I work from home most days and my schedule is flexible. I also have a list of trusted back-up pet sitters that are able to fill in if your needs don’t align perfectly with my availability. I am happy to provide drop-in or stay-in care for your animals. Your pets will be cared for just as you would. They will get the love and attention that they deserve.
“Caroline was the best! Great communication and clearly very much an animal lover. Really put my mind at ease while I was away. I will book her again! It also helped that my girlie tigger really loved her.”
“Ashley took great care of our two cats! She was extremely communicative, dedicated time and attention to making sure they were active, and made sure they exhibited normal eating/drinking habits while we were traveling. Loved the pictures as well!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have always been a natural animal lover — animals tend to love me just as much as I love them. I currently have a few cats and live with my best friend, who has a dog of her own that I help care for regularly (she’s basically mine too!). I also have hands-on experience working with dogs from spending a couple of years at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to care for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m currently a server, and with it being the slow season right now, my availability is very flexible and open for most days and times. I love caring for pets in their own homes, where they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all routines, feeding schedules, and special instructions so your pet gets consistent care and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just snuggles, I make sure your pet feels happy, loved, and well looked-after while you’re away.
About: Cats have been part of my life for more than 25 years. I grew up with them, and for over a decade I’ve been the go-to cat sitter for family and friends. That experience has taught me that every cat is different, and that great care means meeting each one where they are. I’ve cared for just about every kind of cat: short-haired and long-haired, tiny kittens and senior cats, high-energy explorers and shy, anxious hiders. With playful cats, I make sure they get plenty of stimulation and attention. With nervous or timid cats, I take things slow, give them space, and let them warm up on their own terms. Seniors get the gentle patience they deserve. I’m also comfortable caring for cats with special needs, including those on medication. I’ll follow your instructions and schedule carefully so your cat’s routine stays consistent while you’re away. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your kitty is doing. My goal is simple: your cat stays happy, healthy, and comfortable, and you get real peace of mind. I have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available for drop-in visits anytime from early morning to evening, including weekends and holidays. Visits can be 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your cat’s needs. I’m also happy to do more than one visit a day if needed. Establishing trust with your furry loved one is my # 1 priority. I will follow your instructions for initiating initial contact with your pet and then work to make them feel comfortable and safe while I take care of their needs.

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 .

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 , 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.
