“I am a rover myself and I was very nervous to use a rover for my own animals. She made this so super smooth and was very photogenic with my baby boy. I just can’t pick which one I like the most. They’re all amazing! I definitely will be using her again!!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. In addition to being a pet owner, I previously worked as an Animal Enforcement Officer. That experience gave me the opportunity to work with animals of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds while staying calm, observant, and compassionate in every situation. It also strengthened my ability to recognize animal behavior, prioritize safety, and handle pets with confidence and care. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a laid-back adult, or a senior who needs a little extra patience, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’ll happily follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of playtime, walks, cuddles, and send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands. I am currently night shift at the hospital so i only work 3 days a week! so plenty of time for your fur babies whenever needed ! I own a fenced in yard and have 2 amazing pups of my own. I do separate them on the opposite side of the house so nothing would ever happen!
“Linda is great with our pets and always does so much to help us out when we’re out of town. She sends photos of our pets and does a great job communicating with us. We’ve never had as good of a pet sitter as Linda! We’d recommend her to everyone. Thank you, Linda for all of your help.”
“Margaux was wonderful to work with. I had a business meeting in the east Bay Area and was going to be gone for about 12 hours. Margaux made it very easy to come by and give my boy a nice break and playtime during the long day. I also appreciated the amazing photos she took during her visit! Thank you Margaux for checking in on Teddy for me!”
About: I love dogs. Dogs love me. I’ll treat your dog like family 💜 Life long pet lover with integrity, who provides genuine care and can accommodate your special pup’s needs. I’m used to always having a dog in my house, but since my last passed on I’ve started boarding, walking, and caring for other’s pets. My home is currently pet-free but fully stocked with treats. Your pup will have the attention they need and the care they deserve. I’m happy to honor most all special requests.
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m currently a dog sitter for my mom whenever she goes out of town. At most, I have taken care of 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time. I have a 6 month training in pet grooming where I learned how to read the signs of a scared or uncomfortable dog/cat, and will always respect their space when it comes to a stranger in their area! I’m currently working part time, so it’s easy for me to stop by and check on your pets! It’s more of a hobby for me than a way to make money. I love all pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is comfortable with me. Whether that’s giving them the space they need, or making sure they received plenty of affection, or simply making sure they’re in the home!
About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Howey-in-the-Hills
Margaux is so nice that we hired her twice!! My wife & I consider Margaux to be the most professional and trustworthy pet sitter we could possibly ask for! She is an active listener. Takes notes. Punctual as punctual can be! Our two cats are very shy around people they are not familiar with. With us present and in our absence, both of our cats will come out of hiding to see Margaux. This will tell you everything you need to know about what a kind and caring person Margaux is. Margaux provided us with updates on our two cats while she was still at our house. Both times we hired Margaux was for while my wife & I were away on cruises to other countries. If something went sideways with one of our cats, it's not as if we can hop on the next flight to come home. This is where my wife & I have placed all of our trust in Margaux. Without Margaux, our ability to travel for a week would not be possible. We are hopeful to secure Margaux services again in 2026.

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.

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.
