“Lori did great as always and was able to cover holidays for me. I am so lucky to have her and the kitties are always glad to see her. Mittie watches out the window when she leaves.”
About: I’ve been raising and caring for dogs since I was 10, especially pit bulls. I have hands-on experience helping with dog births and caring for puppies. I have three dogs of my own: a micro French Bulldog, a Chihuahua, and a Pit Bull. I’ve also worked at Taurus Academy, which gave me additional experience around dogs. I understand that every dog has a different personality and needs patience, love, and proper care. I’m comfortable around different breeds and want every pet to feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I have flexibility in my schedule and can make time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m happy to discuss feeding times, walks, playtime, and other care routines to fit your pet’s needs. I’ll do my best to keep your pet comfortable and on their normal routine while you’re away. I prioritize keeping every pet safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have three dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of supervision, patience, and following each pet’s routine. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your pet’s space clean, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I’m also happy to discuss any special needs or safety concerns before providing care.
“Mya was absolutely amazing with my cat! She communicated with me throughout the entire stay, followed every instruction perfectly, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious she genuinely cares about animals and has such a kind heart. I could tell my cat was well cared for and in great hands. I would recommend Maya to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you again, Mya—I truly appreciate everything you did!”
“This is our Watson’s 2nd boarding with her and it couldn’t have gone better! As before, we received regular updates with pictures, and it allowed me to actually relax during our time away knowing our boy was I such good hands. Isabelle was also incredible when it came to accommodating my last minute holiday plans, she really saved the day for my family!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors animals since middle school but began taking it more seriously around 13-14. I’ve animal sat elderly dogs with special needs, puppies, and mostly small dogs! But I’ve also happily watched cats, rodents, birds, and fish so all animal friends are welcome! Excited to meet you and your best friends. I love animals and honestly any excuse to meet new ones is very exciting. I can always work Sundays and Fridays and I have time Tuesday and wednesday evenings to check in on them when needed or go on a little walk. My cat is fed 3 times a day for a total of 2/3 cup of food, he has a play routine before bed, is let on the balcony for fresh air with his harness and a line connected to the door so he cannot get to the edge of the concrete. He takes his flea meds every month, and goes to the vet every 6 for a little check in as he’s on a small weight loss journey. I work 6-8hrs a day 5 days a week but luckily he has a a cat roommate to nap and play with while I’m gone
About: I have taken care of many dogs for family and friends in the Austin area for overnight trips, emergency trips, and day to day care. I follow instructions well and love to spend time with all animals, especially dogs. I take care of my two cats at home daily and occasionally take care of other pets for friends and family. I have a part time job so my schedule is flexible. I check their essentials every day (water, food, etc.) and spend time with them to make sure they’re active and happy. Any other needs I happily take care of with instructions given to suit the needs of your pet and home!
“Kristina was fantastic with my cat Fable. She is super responsible, very accommodating with time schedules and goes out of her way to help. I had an early morning flight and she was kind enough to come over at 6am to get the apartment keys before I left. During the house sitting she always made sure to send daily updates of Fable and informed me of how she was that day. I highly recommend Kristina for pet sitting as she is a trustworthy, caring and overall fantastic and does a great job of taking care of your pet!”
“Bhuvana was wonderful with our kitties! She played with them and sent so many cute photos. It really helped calm my mind and helped me relax being away from our fur babies. Having a trusted pet sitter is such a relief!! We will definitely book her again soon!”
“Fantastic job, very accommodating, kind and communicative, providing good updates and took great care of my two cats! Will reach out again when I need boarding again!”
About: I've cared for pets most of my life, including my own kitten and a senior family dog who required special medical attention. I regularly dog-sit for friends—everything from energetic puppies to calm, older dogs—and have experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I’m also very comfortable with cats and understand their unique needs and behaviors. I treat every pet like family, offering patient, loving care tailored to their age, temperament, and routine. I’m experienced with senior dogs, including administering medication and providing gentle support. I’m attentive to detail, reliable, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I’m currently available full-time, which means your pet will get lots of attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s weekday walks, weekend visits, or last-minute bookings, I have the flexibility to fit your pet’s schedule and needs. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I keep things clean, stick to your instructions, and send regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt my care to fit each pet’s needs and personality.
“I'm so glad I found Allison! She was kind, helpful, and super flexible around my situation. She sent a very cute picture of Story, and I can't wait to hire her again. He really loved her, and I won't hesitate to user her Rover services again!”
About: I grew up, always having pets, and it has carried on to me and my children. I currently have two cats and have historically fostered kittens and puppies along with a few foster fails along the way. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am interested in primarily north of the river up into the Round Rock area. I can work remote or in the office which aids my flexibility. I am looking to care for pets in a clients home as my cats would be pissed if I brought someone home with me! My current cats have their own toy box and all the treats they ever need.
“Mariana was an absolutely wonderful catsitter! She knew my cat was high maintenance but was excited for the challenge. Kept regular communication with me throughout and I was able to see how well they bonded and it put me at complete ease! Would highly recommend”
“Haleigh was amazing with my kittos! This was the first time I left them for a week with only drop in visits. At the same time, there was work being done in my apartment so my kitties had to deal with strangers coming in and out. Haleigh kept both me and my fur babies calm throughout the process, updating me with loads of pictures. I highly recommend Haleigh and will definitely be using her again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hornsby Bend
Soren always goes above and beyond when watching our cat (and cats when we had two). He is attentive to their needs and gives us updates on how they are doing. He notes any changes in their behavior and is willing to be flexible in finding the best way to make them comfortable. Soren has been our go-to sitter for a few years now and we always feel confident leaving pets in his care. He is responsive to messages, so if you have any issues/questions, or need to make changes to the booking, it's easy to hammer everything out quickly. My little diva of a cat has even warmed up to him, and that is a pretty impressive accomplishment.
Alyssa did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was out of town. She came punctually every day and fed and made sure their water was flowing. She also spent some time playing with them and I can tell they enjoyed the company by the photos she sent every day. Highly recommend! Planning to use her services again!
Kaleigh is my go to cat sitter! My kitty Mousse loves having her around. She always takes great care of mousse, getting him fresh water, cleaning out his litter box, to even hanging out with him a little bit longer just to give him loves. So happy I can rely on her to always be there for mousse!
Julian was amazing with our two cats! He showed up everyday on time and left detailed descriptions of what he and the cats got up to! We looked forward to the fun pictures and videos he would send at the end of each visit. We know our cats were in great hands while we were away and we will be booking with him again in the future!

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 .

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.
