“Lindsay did a fantastic job caring for our cat while we were out of town! She was a wonderful communicator, sent lots of photos and updates, and our cat warmed up to her right away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. We would absolutely recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Amy has been a wonderful sitter to our two cats! She’s on time, responsive, and we feel comfortable having her in our home for drop ins. Thank you, Amy for the low stress relief of watching our fur-babies while we are away!”
“Guanming and wife are great sitters! They are communitive and detail oriented. It was nice to travel knowing my cats were in good hands, and I got lots of good pictures. I would book again and highly recommend!”
“Yumeng is a very gentle and attentive cat sitter. She starts recording as soon as she enters the room and always uses disposable gloves and shoe covers. During the time she cared for Graycee, she changed her water, refilled her food, and played with her, showing great gentleness and patience. Also, she took a lot of cute pictures and videos of Graycee! We were very happy and felt completely at ease having Yumeng take care of Graycee while we were traveling.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for several years and have always loved being around animals. I also worked as a caretaker at a cat farm, where I handled daily feeding, cleaning, medication, and general care. I cared for cats with different needs, including sick cats, pregnant cats, new mothers, and kittens. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I study at UW for about 3–6 hours Monday through Thursday, usually in the mornings and around midday. I’m available outside of those hours, including evenings and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home and take the time to follow each pet’s usual routine. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, fed, and supervised, and I’m comfortable giving medications, cleaning up after pets, and caring for them independently.

For drop ins I can offer up to three daily visits, and for overnights one midday visit is included. Please reach out and let me know about your pet's needs and we will work out the perfect schedule so that they feel happy and cared for while you're away. As an owner of many different types of creatures, I know just how important our pets are to us and treat them all with the utmost care and respect.

Autumn cared for my two cats on a drop-in basis for 2.5 weeks. She was thorough, caring and observant. She noted that one cat was limping and not acting like herself. Autumn notified me and handled taking the cat to the vet and returning her to my house. Autumn was very capable! I was very happy with her care of my cats.
Lindsay was incredible! I am very picky about who watches my pets, and since this was their first time with a professional pet sitter, I was a bit nervous. Lindsay completely put my mind at ease with regular photo updates throughout the trip. She took wonderful care of them, and it was so comforting to see them feeling relaxed and comfortable around her. I will definitely be rebooking with Lindsay for future trips!
Briana took great care of Chichi! He was a little shy at first, but he quickly warmed up to her and felt comfortable playing with her. I’m so happy to see that he wasn’t afraid and enjoyed spending time with her. I highly recommend Briana and would definitely book her again!
We’ve been booking Patricia for years, and she is truly the best! ❤️ This time she took care of Michie for two full weeks while we were in Europe, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Michie is a very shy and skittish kitty, but he was so relaxed and comfortable with her, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Patricia went above and beyond, despite dealing with an eye injury herself! From all the love and attention she gave Michie to the thoughtful updates and extra help around the house, we appreciated every bit of it. We’re so lucky to have her and can’t recommend her enough!
We had a great experience with Kim! Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the thoughtful updates, along with all the lovely high-quality photos and videos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were well cared for. Would definitely recommend!
My cats and home were incredibly well taken care of by Gigi! We met a while before my trip and she double checked on a few details via text after arriving, which I appreciated over just guessing. She sent lots of photos and details about their food consumption and how they were warming up to her, which I loved having noted, so I don’t have to ask for all the details or be anxious about how they’re doing. Loved seeing that they warmed up to her quickly, as also seen in photos. She is great and I will book with her again for cat care!
Once again, Alyssa took great care of my cat John Cougar. I could tell from her regular photo updates that he enjoyed her company, particularly in how she gave him the perfect mix of playtime and petting breaks. I was very grateful that Alyssa was able to help me with this booking on short notice due to a family emergency that had me traveling to the east coast. She has the utmost professionalism and reassurance in her correspondence, and will always be on my short list when I need a sitter for my extended travel days.
Guoyi was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! She took excellent care of our cat while we were traveling — always on time, and attentive with feeding. She sent photos to update us, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was happy and well cared for the whole time. We'll definitely be booking Guoyi again — highly recommended!
I’m a repeat customer of Julie. She’s fantastic with my cats, communicates well, and is reliable. This time one of my cats was ill and Julie was able to administer his medicine, even though he’s a very squirmy guy! My other cat, Houdini, loves getting her cuddles when she visits.

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 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.
