“So many great things to say about Lauren but I’ll keep this short. Rover can be a bit daunting for a first time customer. We hit the jackpot with Lauren! She was just amazing with our two pups - one of which requires daily medication.”
“Shelby was fantastic. It was a pleasure to meet her briefly ahead of the planned visits. She took time to connect with the pups so she wouldn’t be “stranger danger” to them, asked about likes and quirks, and from the pics, they had a blast with her. Super communicative and we had a great, worry-free time knowing they were in her care. Thanks, Shelby! We’ll be booking again!”
“Sarah is just wonderful!!! My cat Leo means everything to me and Sarah made it possible for me to go on a family vacation and feel 100% comfortable that Leo was in good hands! Sarah sent me photos during each visit and even sent me a video showing me how great Leo was doing. Leo never comes out from under the bed when I have visitors and by the end of the first day Leo was sitting at the front door waiting for Sarah like he does everyday with me! Just speaks volumes about Sarah's kind heart...to me it does anyway! I highly recommend Sarah!”
“Brittany is very professional and loved my kitty kat Tucker even though he is terrified of strangers and wouldn't visit with her when she dropped in during the vacation week! She did everything needed for Tucker to be on his own and we would have her back with no hesitation - Thanx Brittany!”
About: I understand that leaving your pet alone can be extremely stressful, but there’s no need to worry! I absolutely love animals and I have the patience to work with any - big or small! I promise to provide the same level of care to your pet as I would my own. I am a high school teacher, so I am currently available only on weekends. However, for the holidays and during summer break I typically stay local so if you are going to be traveling please take me into consideration! I am very comfortable working with dogs in their homes. If they need to be walked, I can easily handle putting on a leash and picking up after them. I am also comfortable handling any toys, food, or medicine your pet may need.
“Lauren was excellent! She communicated well and took care of my very anxious cat in the best possible way. She was also very punctual and quick to respond to messages.”
About: I have over 5 years of experience house sitting and pet sitting . I have experience from puppies to seniors! I’m comfortable in giving meds I own my own business and work a part time job but they both allow so I’m able to make my own schedule . Day I care for pets in Clients home with all the respect of there home and follow all the guidelines the client sets for their pet
“Rachel was great with our dog & cat. She was punctual, reliable, and our fur babies took to her so quickly. She sent me so many pictures of them cuddled up on her so if you believe that a dog is a good judge of character, then Rachel is the best. We will use her in the future & would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Super duper dogwatch trooper! Provided regular updates and timely pics. Great attention to detail, remembering little quirks I told her about our dog. I’d say even nicer things, but I’d rather keep her a secret ;)”
“Very happy with Sophia’s care of Leo! We were away for a long time, and it was reassuring to know he was being well looked after. Will definitely book Sophia again. Thank you!”
“Sarah was great with our two kitties over the Christmas holiday. She sent detailed updates and pictures and we truly felt that our girls, who we love so very much, were well cared for. She also took care of grabbing packages for us. We won't hesitate to reach out again next time we need cat sitting ?”
“Bonnie took great care of my cat, Dora, while I was away! Having just moved to the area, it was time to start over with a new sitter and I’m very glad to have found Bonnie! She is a great communicator, sent me lots of pictures and texts, and asked questions as they arose. Dora is normally leery of new people, but it was clear from the pics that Dora connected and felt safe safe with her right away! Bonnie was also super flexible with me on a visit time, helping coordinate a package delivery that was accelerated to while I was gone. It was another stress relieved. Thanks for everything, Bonnie! We’ll be reserving again soon!”
“Dominika and her daughter are very loving and kind to our shy male cat Goldie! He responds back to them with the same energy and knows them as part of his family! Thank you for all you do for us!! LK”
“Kayla is a fantastic cat sitter. My cat doesn’t warm to people quickly, but Astrid made friends with Kayla on the first day. I lt was such a relief to know that my cat was so being well cared for while I was gone.”
“This is the first time I used Rover and I’m impressed. We only needed a drop in for Lucy and Ginger, but Justine did a great job, especially dealing with an over exuberant 4 month old puppy that’s not quite potty trained and an older dog that does not warm up immediately to new people.”
“She did an amazing job! Loved all the love and attention I for the animals that I could easily see come through in the photos. I’ll definitely use her next time I need to travel!”
“Well Ms. Mo did it again - she is a cat whisperer, we are convinced! Our two boys love her so much that they end up saying “Ms. Mo” instead of “Meow” when we return from a vacation. We schedule our trips around her schedule because we don’t want to have to think about having anyone else care for our fur children. Thank you Ms. Maureen for always going above and beyond, we are very grateful we found you. ❤️🐱”
“Devon came to our apartment last minute to help with the animals when I had to take my daughter to a doctors appointment. He is such a lifesaver and always tries to accommodate my schedule and helping us out!”
“Renee took care of our senior dogs for a week including administering meds and we came home to happy dogs. Even though they didn't require walks she stayed and sat with them for the full time while they went out back. Thank you Renee! We will be sure to use you next time we have to leave.”

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.
