“Margaux is amazing! Margaux set a worry free first impression. Her communication response time is almost immediate. I was beyond impressed with our meet & greet. Margaux is an active listener, takes detailed notes and asks meaningful questions. Margaux was very timely and did an amazing job with her drop in service for our two senior cats. Margaux communicated with us during every drop in visit. Thanks to Margaux, me & my wife were able to enjoy a worry free vacation out of the country. Margaux is at the top of my list for an immediate rehire candidate! Margaux, I can't thank you enough for all you've done for me, my wife & our two furry four legged kids!!”

“This was our first time leaving our baby girl Ela ( 2.5 yr old kitty) and having Jennifer being there to take care of her made it a little easier. Jennifer was amazing, her communication was spectacular, she really went above and beyond to make us feel at ease with missing our baby. She was sweet, caring and very loving towards our baby. I wrote out a book of directions (LOL) and she followed them exactly. Jennifer, Thank you so much for caring for our little Ela ❤️ We will definitely reach out again in the future.”

“We had never left Lily with any one before and, I have to admit, I was a little nervous about trusting a stranger with our sweet girl. I feel so lucky to have found Shawn and Bethany! They stayed in constant contact with us and sent pictures and updates regularly. It didn't take long for us to realize what good care Lily was getting. She seemed so content with Bethany I wondered if she would even want us to pick her up when we got back home. I highly recommend Shawn and Bethany to any one looking for a loving environment for your kitty while you are away!”

I came home to a happy cat, everything was clean and spotless……which allowed me to spend ample playtime with my boy. I will definitely use her again very soon. I Highly Recommend Julie as the “Go To” person.”

About: I've always cared for pets since I was little. I can train and treat animals just as my own. Love to take dogs for walks and can bathe them once a week. I'm currently working part-time and can spend time and walk your dogs more throughout the day and week. I love spending time with dogs and cats. I've always been an animal person. I play with my dog and she lays in the bed when I'm there and lays beside me. Give her treats, walk her outside to the bathroom, walk, feed her in the evening, love on her.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 2. I love fur babies more anything. In fact, I wanted to be a veterinarian for the longest time so in high school, I took 4 years of vet assisting, shadowed at a vet clinics and became certified vet assistant! As I got older, I ultimately switched career paths. I work from home now in corporate event planning. This gives me the flexibility to be home with my pets and hopefully take care of yours as well! I do work full time, but fortunately work from home which gives me plenty of flexibility! My pups always get plenty of play time during the work day! Boarding would be perfect. I do have the time to be able to go on walks as well. I have a big fenced yard and have my own dogs. They are all very friendly and love playing with eachother and other dogs. They would love to have another friend to play with!

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.

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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
