“Keesha was a great sitter! She was took amazing care of our 12 year old Maine Coon. The daily drop ins for food, water and treats was just what our grumpy old man needed during our quick weekend away. Daily updates/photos put our minds at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend Keesha to care for your fur baby! We 100% will be using her again soon!”

About: I have had pets my whole life and have been trusted to care for the pets of friends and neighbors for everything from training and socializing to full time care during vacation. I’m currently working but will have all mornings, evenings, and weekends to care for your furry family. I can also drop in during lunch to make sure your pet gets time to stretch their legs. I pet sit frequently for friends and neighbors, always being mindful of the trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for the pets they love so much. I’m happy to send updates and adorable photos of your furry friends while you’re away.
About: I have the most experience caring for dogs and cats. Growing up, I always had pet dogs. Once I was finally on my own, I got my first cat and fully embraced the “cat lady” stereotype. I now have two other cats and one of them I raised from 4 weeks old. I therefore feel very experienced with bottle baby kittens. I am a full-time teacher so unless we are on a break, I am available during the week after 3pm. I don’t have any work commitments on weekends. I would follow whatever instructions you left for me regarding your pet. If I were to have any questions, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to you.
“Kelsey was fantastic! She followed care instructions, provided photos a d updates, and our kitty seemed to really enjoy the company while we were away. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!”
“Tyler has been great with Castiel! He keeps me updated during every visit, which gives me a lot of peace of mind, and he’s been incredibly flexible whenever plans or timing have shifted. The whole experience has honestly been so easy and completely pain-free. I really appreciate knowing Castiel is in good hands, and I would absolutely recommend Tyler for both walks and drop-in visits.”
About: I groom dogs as well as have an existing client base with pet sitting/dog walking. I also used to be a rabbit breeder and have general experience with many animals. I originally worked in a dog daycare/hotel and shifted to grooming after moving to PA My work/school schedule isn't consistent. But generally I'm awake between the hours of 5am-11pm with wake up times and sleep times varying around those marks. Whatever schedule your pup needs I'm able to accommodate. I have an extremely friendly and passive Corgi named Fiona and a friendly and playful Pomeranian named Victoria. I have have 2 cats but they are able to be separated if it's an issue for your friend.
“Sally was amazing! She is so easy to work with, very communicative, and even did a few extra things for me. I ordered cat toys while we were gone, and she put them together for Ripley, she watered some plants, and went out of her way to make Ripley happy by giving her plenty of treats and outside time. My cat was very well cared for, and I felt safe using Rover for the first time. Thank you Sally! We will certainly use your services again!”
About: Dogs & cats have been in almost every household I've been a part of since childhood. Since 2019, I've had the honor of caring for my dog, Apollo. He's a sweetheart who is also reactive to other animals, so I've learned a lot about managing his energy and am comfortable working with other animals who might have some challenging behavioral traits. I’m outgoing and energetic, and enjoy taking dogs on long walks. I also enjoy playtime with dogs and cats, and am happy to play fetch or dangle a string to the animal’s content. Also a sucker for cuddle time! I understand the importance of consistency in animal routines and am happy to follow whatever rules & habits you have in place for your pet. I’ve cared for animals with special needs (including special diets and medications), as well as issues hearing/seeing. I work as a freelance writer & editor, so my schedule is generally quite flexible for walks and drop-in visits. I look forward to meeting your lovely animals!
About: I have had a dog ever since I was 10 years old. I got another dog shortly after and would take care of them both when my parents were away. I watch my neighbors two large dogs for weeks at a time. I enjoy taking dogs on walks outside and playing with them- I treat them as my own. I work another job part time, I go to work early and am usually done around 3 or 4. I am available most weekends all day and am available for overnight care. I am normally off Friday-Sunday. I have a big field in my backyard and am comfortable if you do not live in a fenced in area. I am comfortable putting pets in a crate as well.
About: I am grateful that I got to grow up around animals and build special bonds with them! Ever since I was little, I cared for my own pets, my family’s and friend’s. I am detail oriented and care about you and your pet! I work full time during the week and I am off later in the evenings. My weekends are open to care for your furry friends! It is my top priority to create consistency and safety for my own cat, and that is still just as important when it comes to your pets! I appreciate clarity when it comes to expectations regarding your pets care.

Keesha was so amazing! She checked in and gave a detailed update everyday. She even bought greg a new toy to play with <3 she met with me prior to meet greg and i could tell from her questions that she genuinely wanted to provide quality care for greg and im so thankful for that. she’s the best!!
Repeat customer and I'll continue to be for as long as I'm in range. Rover is giving me the chance to give her another 5 star review after she so wonderfully agreed to a last minute extra week tacked on after a family emergency on my end, and I'm taking that opportunity to do so. Thank you!!!
Regan did a wonderful job with the drop in visits. My dog really liked him and my shyest cat came out to see him, which I consider a good sign. Regan also made sure the feral cats had food and water as requested. Sent me photos & quick updates. I would love to hire Regan again when I go out of town.
Mackenzie took great care of my cat, Sandie! Mackenzie made sure to spend quality time during each visit and sent me lots of pictures. Unforeseen circumstances required us to adapt the plans at the last minute, and Mackenzie was very flexible and made sure to prioritize Sandie's care. I will definitely book Mackenzie in the future.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
