About: I absolutely love animals, not just my own. But all, & turned it into my job! Being around animals is a complete joy in my life. I’m a 20 year old with a part time job. I take pride into my jobs because not only is it my job, but I enjoy my jobs & they’re apart of my routine. I have a dog of my own. I got him when he was 2 months old and now he is 5 years old. I make sure he has everything he needs; food, water, extra like toys, sweaters when it’s cold, etc. I wake up with him & go to bed with him. I trained him everything he knows. My boy is my LIFE!
“Reyanah was very loving and caring! She went above and beyond to take care of our cat Kevin as if he was her own ❤️ The videos and pictures she sent were great and showed us how much Kevin loved having her over to play and take care of his needs. We’ll definitely be calling her every time whenever we need a pet sitter!”
“Chloe did a great job taking care of my furbabies! I am a super helicopter pet parent who hates leaving her pets, so I have very high standards. Since we work from home, our pets are used to having someone with them 24/7 and are very socialized, so I didn't want them feeling lonely. Chloe completely understood and stayed in our house for over 2 weeks to take care of the little ones. She sent regular photo updates that showed her playing with the cats and providing enrichment for them. The regular check-ins were so comforting to me! She also left the house clean and tidy for us to come home to. She responded promptly any time I texted her, and was extremely courteous. All in all, it was a great experience and we will definitely book Chloe again.”
“Amazing care. I am so glad I found Edith. I felt at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. She sent photos every day of my cat looking happier with her than me lol. Best caretaker for pets ever. I highly recommend Edith.”
About: My favorite approach is with open arms through pure interest, curiosity, & patience to make friends with & show they are safe & sound with me. Right now i’m very available to a flexible daily & weekly schedule on the fly & can work with same day changes if need be. Nothing is more important than the safety of our furry friends, i’ve had a lot of experience working with crating, housing or backyard work with animals.
About: I’ve cared for all types of pets—cats, dogs, birds, fish, and even a chameleon! I love animals and currently own multiple pets, giving me hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. I provide attentive, reliable care for both young and senior animals. I can provide morning care, and depending on your needs, afternoon, late-night, or overnight stays. I’m flexible and prioritize keeping pets comfortable and on their routine! I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for pets, whether in my home or yours. I care for cats, dogs, fish, and even a chameleon, following all instructions and supervising play to ensure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and secure. Fun fact! I also volunteer once or twice a week at pet smart with the cats and feed them and take care of them for an hour!
“Kimberly is a wonderful Cat Sitter and I know that I will use her again to take care of my two cats. Over the Thanksgiving week, she came twice a day to feed and pet my kitties. One cat is very old and Kimberly would give her food near her cat bed, and lots of scratches under the neck. My other cat is an 8 year old male who is very affectionate and loves to meet people. Kimberly talked to him and brushed him after she fed him each time. She treated my cats with LOVE - as if they were her own pets. Kimberley is a truly incredible Pet Sitter!”
About: I currently volunteer at Animal Samaritans, an animal shelter located in Thousand Palms. I've been volunteering for 1 year now and I specialize in the need and care of cats and dogs. My skills can vary from providing companionship to all pets, to special maintenance and cleaning services! Apart from volunteering at a shelter, it is my ultimate goal to work alongside pets all-day, providing not only intensive care but love and compassion to your Fur Babies! My schedule is very flexible as I can fit extensive time for pet care and extracurricular activities such as dog walking. I am currently taking full online courses. I spend most of my days in the comfort of my home alongside my outdoor hobbies. I am available Monday- Sunday and on Holidays. I live in a pet-friendly large home with a friendly kitten and a spacious backyard. Many treats and playtime are always a necessity! There is a community pet-friendly park within a 5-minute walking distance. A 6ft wide fence is provided!
About: I have always had pets since I can remember from cats to dogs, bunnies, chickens, so I grew up caring for many animals. I would also pet sit for family members and friends. I currently have a dog and a bunny! I love exercise and nature, so I’m constantly outside playing sports or walking/running and hiking. I love to look for new spots for hikes or short walks and parks. I also have a part time job of only 12 hours a week so I have a lot of free time on my hands! I currently have a bunny who has her own little pen. My apartment in a gated community and near a park! I am very organized and can follow any specific routines needed for pets of any needs.
“Was great! Was consistent with timing and dogs were great when we got back! I had a mix up in communication and she went above and beyond to help fix it! Would absolutely book again with Tawny.”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, or simply some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets and your home, and I’ll always keep you updated during my visits. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for pet care outside of my work schedule and have more flexibility on weekends. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly to make sure your pet gets the care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, or special needs. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care while respecting your home. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Jazmin was great. She took care of our elderly cat with a few health issues and managed it well. She also took care of litter box messes and occasional vomiting. I would definitely use her again.”
About: With seven years of hands-on pet care, I bring more than just love for animals. I bring experience you can trust. Your pet gets one-on-one attention, daily updates, and a calm, consistent routine that keeps stress low while you're away. I’m currently employed Sunday through Thursday as a Sales Consultant at WDC. I work 9am-6pm. I would be happy to check on your pets before and after my work day. I keep routines consistent so your pet feels secure while you're away. That means feeding, walks, playtime, and meds on their normal schedule, plus plenty of companionship. I send daily photo/text updates, bring in mail, water plants, and keep things tidy if needed.

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 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.
