“Madison did a great job with our kitty! She even fed our little fish as we requested. We loved the report she gave us after each visit and the pictures she took were really nice. We're looking forward to having Madison come back during our next vacation. :)”
“Sarah provided great updates. My cats are usually pretty shy and skittish with new people, but she had them coming out to investigate and play by the second day. Absolutely will come back to Sarah if I need a sitter again.”
“Jenn is seriously the best and my go to for every trip! This trip was the longest I’ve been away from my fur baby, but I knew Jenn would give her all the love and more. She knows Mae-Ling’s quirks and needs so well. I enjoy all of the updates and photos she sends. It made me so happy to see how comfortable and extra snuggly Mae-Ling was with Jenn 🩷”
“My cat loves to be around people, but we had to travel a lot this summer. Curt gave our cat lots of attention which we really appreciated. Curt sent pictures from each visit which we enjoyed.”
“Chelsea did a wonderful job taking care of Oscar while I was on my trip! She was reliable, timely, attentive, and communicated very well with me. She was very patient getting to know Oscar while he warmed to her, and the next thing I know she was sending pictures with Oscar sitting on her lap. :) A great first experience with Rover, and I'm sure Oscar is looking forward to seeing Chelsea again in the not so distant future!”
“Christian was super with my pets while I was out of town and kept in touch with pictures and text messages regularly. When he had questions, he didn't hesitate to contact me to resolve. I will definitely book with him the next time I need pet sitting services.”
“Amber was awesome with our two cats! She was very communicative, followed our instructions, and was great with our two boys. We could tell they were very well cared for while we were gone. We’ll definitely be booking with Amber again!”
About: Hi! I'm Abby, a registered nurse who knows how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet family member. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply a calm and reliable presence, I'm committed to providing attentive, compassionate care. I've cared for animals my entire life and currently have a cat of my own, so I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. I take the time to learn what makes your pet feel comfortable, whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medications, burning off energy with play, or offering extra patience to shy or anxious pets. My nursing background has strengthened my attention to detail, communication, and ability to stay calm in unexpected situations. I work three 12-hour overnight shifts each week as a registered nurse, which gives me several full days off for pet care. My work schedule is set in advance, so I always know my availability and only accept bookings that I can fully commit to. As a cat owner myself, caring for my pet is part of my daily routine. Before every shift, I make sure she's fed, has fresh water, clean litter, and plenty of enrichment. When I get home, I spend quality time playing with her and giving her lots of attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'll follow your pet's routine just as carefully as I do my own. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's needs and follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, litter box care, and any special preferences. In my home, boarded cats will have a clean, calm environment with plenty of toys, fresh water, cozy places to relax, and lots of attention. I do have a friendly resident cat, so I only accept boarding for cats that are comfortable being around other cats. I introduce pets thoughtfully and always prioritize everyone's safety and well-being. When caring for pets in a client's home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure doors and windows are secure, keep things clean and tidy, and send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician and long time dog sitter for family and friends. I love meeting new pets and giving them lots of scratches! I’m a Veterinary Technician and I work at a pretty flexible job where I work 4 days a week and get two hour lunch breaks. Having the extra time over lunch allows me to check on pets mid day and do walks/meds/lunch feedings etc. I usually do care in clients homes rather than my own. However, watching pets in my home can be worked as long as they get along with other dogs and cats. I have two very dog friendly dogs and a couple very happy and cuddly cats!
“10/10 Will recommend Anikka to anyone who needs pet sitting! She takes special care and consideration for your pet and will make sure she treats them as her own. She will go above and beyond, making sure they are well taken care of but that their behavioral needs are also met. My cat is very social and Anikka made sure to spend a lot of quality time with her. The pictures were great too! You can tell Anikka also has an animal care and behavior background, as she really understands your pet’s needs while you are gone. She’s great and everyone should hire her!”
“Mikaela was great! She always sent pics and did everything she could to get my little scaredy cat out and playing. She followed all instructions and left the house nice and clean. Would definitely hire her again!”
About: I have worked in veterinary medicine for 5 years and am comfortable with older pets or those that need special care. I’ve had pets my entire life and love caring for them! I am primarily available on weekends due to my job in veterinary medicine. I am typically free on Wednesdays and later in the evenings on other weekdays. I feel every pet is unique and has a different personality which requires individualized care. I will work with you to best meet your pets’ needs and love them as though they’re my own.
“Ellen did an excellent job dropping by to take care of my two kitties. She was very responsive and did everything I asked for them. Would definitely have her cat sit again!”

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.

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 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.
