“Emily cuido de mis perros mas allá de mis expectativas. Es puntual, responsable, atenta y cariñosa. Me informaba lo que hacían a diario y me enviaba fotitos y video. Barak, Nalah y yo esperamos volver a verla pronto. :)”
“Vaneesha is a must book! She took care of our babies for a last minute trip and sooooo put our minds at ease! This was also our longest trip apart from our newest kitty and she made sure we were kept in the loop the entire time. 10/10!!!”
“Lanae is a great sitter!!! She's very responsible and trustworthy. She communicates well, and always sends me pictures of my pet. I've hired her multiple times and will definitely hire her again!”
“Brianna is the kitty whisperer! One of my cats is super shy and doesn’t always come out when sitters come but she came out on Brianna’s first day! Brianna was super communicative, asked a lot of great questions to ensure she handled my babies needs with care and took the best pics of them both. We will definitely use Brianna for our future needs❤️❤️”
“Heather is the absolute best! This was my first time using the Rover app and I am so happy with the service she provided! Heather’s communication is immaculate! She answered every question I had and eased my anxiety! My Marleigh girl loves her! This was a HUGE stress relief for me and I definitely will be booking again!! Thank you so much Heather! ❤️”
“Jason was great with our very active puppy. Reliable and communicative, Jasen helps us manage her energy with drop in visits multiple times a day. We would recommend Jasen to others!”
“JMark, is awesome!! I'm so glad I chose him. My Rottie Rome has really warmed up to him and looks forward to seeing him. They've quickly formed a bond and do well together. He keeps me updated on any developments concerning Rome, and we are pleased with his service. I hope he's apart of the family for a long while.”
“Mical was great with our fur babies (cats). She did 6 visits sitting with them 60 minutes a visit. One of the cats is very skittish but pictures sent showed she allowed Mical to rub her. That means she had trust in Mical. Finding someone to care for your fur babies is always challenging, but I had peace of mind with Mical.”
About: Lifetime of experience with dogs and cats, 5 years of furster care for puppies (training, love, and preparing them for their forever homes), and puppy love. I work full time, but making sure they start and end their day with love is important. Walks in the evening and weekend adventures are options. I have a fenced in yard for watching my parents animals. My own never miss a day of snuggles and play. If your furbaby stays at my home it will need to be cat friendly and would be safe downstairs where there is plenty of room to play. Giving all animals a safe space.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, lizards and more since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for years to care for their pets. I’m currently unemployed and a stay at home mom. The kids are going back to school and I’d really love to try and fill my day with some activities that bring me joy, such as caring for sweet fur babies. I feed, groom and bathe, and play with all the pets I’ve been responsible for since the age of 10. I can’t wait to meet yours!
About: Hi there! I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, caring for pets like dogs, cats, and even ferrets. I’m currently in college studying to become a vet tech and work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I care for pets of all sizes and personalities. I started pet sitting in August of last year and have loved every second of it! I provide personalized care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, and I treat every pet like family. Let me know how I can help care for your furry friends—I’d love to meet them! I am currently a student, and my work schedule varies weekly, typically ranging between 6:00 AM and 6:30 PM. However, I pride myself on being highly flexible and am happy to accommodate your needs with clear and timely communication. I currently have two dogs at home—a pit mix and a greyhound mix. My pit mix does not get along with other dogs, so I have experience managing and keeping dogs safely separated when necessary. I am also experienced in administering medications and ensuring pets receive the care they need. Additionally, I provide detailed updates and photos throughout the day to keep you informed and at ease.
About: I’ve watched young puppies to older puppies and cat and treated every animal with love and respect so they feel safe, seen, and cared for. I work online so my daily work is flexible. I can work anywhere and adapt my schedule to spend time with pets throughout the day. I am great at following or creating helpful routines or help the animals feel safe and access food,water, play, sleep, walks, and fun outside activities.
About: I love animals and I’ve worked with them my whole life. I’ve worked with dogs and cats going on 4 years; working with all kinds of breeds helped me understand better to provide the best care. Pet care fits in my weekly routine mainly because I’m always doing this for the betterment of my own pets and it would be nothing short of an honor to do it for others. My pets are always engaged and more than cared for. The expectation would hold the same for someone else’s pet. Playtime and mental enrichment are priority, if you play hard you sleep hard!
About: Since I was a child, I've had a strong affinity for animals and have always adored fur pets. I've been caring for animals since I was ten years old. I've worked with senior dogs for four years. Neighbors and friends have entrusted me with keeping an eye on, walking, bathing, and feeding their pets. I also kept an eye on chickens. I figured rover would be a great way for me to interact with a variety of furry friends. I can work full time on weekends and part time and weekdays because I’m still in school. But I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and drop ins on weekdays. I don't keep pets in cages because I don't want them to feel confined. I do accept pets on furniture, but if you want your pet to be crated I will allow it. I also have a very large yard for your pet to run about in.

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.

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.
