“Patty was wonderful! She was also very responsive and organized. She took great care of my two cats while I was gone (even when dealing with their mischief!). Having her regular check-ins and notes helped me be less stressed and worried about them while I was away for work. She even managed to win over my little scaredy cats by the end of the week! I already am booking her for my next travel!”
“Toryn was amazing! They went above and beyond with my two cats who have very different personalities. It’s so nice to be able to leave for a vacation and know that my very loved animals are being taken care of.”
“Jordan did a great job taking care of my cat for a full week. She was on time and very thoughtful about sending pictures along with updates. I would recommend her and I plan to ask her to help me again in the future when I need to travel.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Currently own a cat and since moving have always wanted a dog but travel a lot. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule to check in on your pets. I’m excited to meet them and get to know them! I have a cat well loved and taken care of. He gets all the most attention especially as my wife and I work from him.
About: I have multiple years experience working in a doggy daycare, kennel, and shelter environment. I don't have a dog of my own quite yet, but I am working towards obtaining a certification in dog training. I worked for 5 years at a kennel, and my work there ranged from being a part of the doggy daycare in the back to customer service up front. In my time there I have become fairly knowledgeable on dog behavior, body language, etc. I have been lucky enough to care for more dogs than I could ever count, with personalities to match! They all hold a special place in my heart, and any dog under my care is treated how I would want my own pet treated. I am also working towards a certification in dog training, please message me if you'd like to discuss. I focus on compassion and understanding to build a relationship with the dogs I meet. I am happy to move at their pace and respect their boundaries if they are on the shyer side, snuggle up on the couch, or go for an adventure at a nearby park- whatever your pup loves, I would love to be their new best friend! Pet care is always my top priority, both for my own and any pets I’m watching or caring for. I schedule my hours at work to be able to accommodate the animals I’m caring for. I tend to work mornings/ afternoons, and am able to stop in for a mid day potty break if needed. I do not care for pets in my own home, as my two cats are shy and take some time to adjust to new animals. But I dedicate myself to taking care of animals in their homes or if I have a dog out on a walk! I do my best to replicate the schedule and environment that pets are used to to keep them as comfortable as possible. I like to hear of any quirks that may be helpful in making your pet more comfortable.
“Karla, was a huge help this past week as we needed to head out of town for a family funeral! She sent daily pics of our Ned which was so appreciated! We are always in need of a car sitter to give Ned his daily asthma meds! Would definitely hire Karla again!”
About: I have been a dog lover since I was a kid. I've dog sat (and cat sat) for friend's dogs of all breeds and sizes. Dogs really have always taken a liking to me. I started working with dogs at age 15 as a bather for a groomer. I've had dogs my entire life. I just love spending time with dogs! I work full time in the medical field and have 2 Goldendoodles. One standard and one mini. Both are rehome situations. I am available for your busy weekends of kids sports, Kings Island or little getaways! I am able to give your pets water, food, medicine. Play with them and put them in their crate, if needed. I can do a little bit of everything for them!
“Jen did drop in visits for our cat Oscar and she was so amazing! She was so sweet to our cat and he loved playing with her. She also took some really awesome photos of him and gave us detailed updates while we were gone. Highly recommend Jen to take care of your fur baby when you are gone.”
“Julie is fantastic! We feel so lucky that we found her to stay with our two kitties while we were out of town for several weeks. Not only did she bond with our cats and take great care of them, she also prevented a potential flea infestation in our house! We strongly recommend!”
“Amanda did a great job of taking care of our senior cat while we were gone for 2.5 weeks. She checked in every day, sent pictures and gave status updates in addition to feeding, cleaning litter and administering fluids! We would definitely recommend and will book again!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner since I was a child and have had my dogs Chewie and Murphy for the past 4 years. I work remotely so am able to be there to care for your pets all day and we have plenty of space for them to romp and play in a safe environment. Working full time but able to take time as needed to care for my furry friends. Weekends are open without work and able to play with and walk the dogs. Fully fenced half acre yard with grass and gardens to play on/in. Our dogs now like to “run the race track” around the house throughout the day.
About: I've owned and cared for pets since I was in middle school. I own a lovable and silly orange tabby cat who lives with me and my wife in our apartment. I currently help my parents take care of their 2 labradors; one chocolate and one yellow, while they are at work during the week. I'd like to offer the same service and love to your furry friends. I am generally available every day of the week, except on a Sunday. If needed badly, I can do Sundays, but only 1pm or after. I make it a point to follow instructions very carefully in order that your pet gets everything they need and deserve. (medications, walks, vet visits[if necessary], etc.)

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 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 .

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.
