About: I have been entrusted with the care of many friends and neighbors pets since I was 10 years old. I have my own cat, Pidge, who I trained to go on walks and do tricks. He’s very friendly and people oriented. I just adopted an Aussie puppy and have been adapting her to the world and keeping her mentally stimulated. I am a detail oriented and thorough sitter. If your pet has special quirks or needs I am more than willing to abide! I can go over their training, take them on a walk and prepare special treats or meals. Anything to ensure my visit is as close to their usual routine as possible. Your pets comfort and care is my top priority. My schedule works perfectly for date nights, concerts, and any special events you may have in the evening during the week. Weekends I’m fully available. If you want your dog to get some socialization I’m also willing to orchestrate a play date with my dog (after an initial meet with you present). I would love to check in on your pet or take your dogs (or cats) for a walk! I work full time so I am available on weekdays in the morning, evening and overnight. Weekends all day. I can visit after work and take them on a walk, feed them, let them out to potty, check their food/water, do some training, etc. I am detail oriented and will make sure I follow the specific routine and guidelines you require for your pet. In my own home I have a daily schedule for my puppy’s training in 10min increments to maximize her training and behavioral development, as well as give her my undivided attention in the hours she’s awake. I wouldn’t hesitate to go above and beyond for your pets as well. I care about the well being and safety of all animals and will make sure every pet in your home is treated with respect.
About: I’ve spent 7+ years caring for pets of all kinds, taking the time to learn each one’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra care. I work a full-time job from 10–5 on weekdays, so I schedule pet care around my work hours. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, playtime, or visits. When I’m with pets, I give them my full attention and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for, even with my regular work schedule. I provide attentive, patient care whether I’m at your home or mine. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. If pets are in my home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family, giving plenty of attention, cuddles, and play. I always prioritize their happiness, health, and comfort.
“Samantha was truly amazing! Communication was always persistent and we got the best updates with lots of pictures/videos. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“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!”
“Jasmine has been a lifesaver for the 2 kitties! They were available on short notice and have gone above and beyond to help with the cats health needs. Jasmine was communicative and sent lots of photos! I would highly recommend Jasmine!!”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was seven years old, ensuring they are walked, fed, and loved every day. I grew up with small and medium sized dogs. In addition to my personal pets, I have also provided care for friends’ dogs and fostered puppies during middle and high school. My hands-on experience with a variety of dog breeds and sizes makes me a reliable and dedicated sitter for your beloved pets. I understand the importance of trust and affection in pet care, and I am committed to providing a safe and joyful environment for your dogs while you're away. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, or just keeping your pup company, I am here to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. I work in person 8 AM - 5 PM but am available before or after work.

About: I have had plenty of dogs and cats growing up and absolutely love spending time with them. I am happy to take them on walks, bathe them, petsit overnights, and become a routine caretaker.

“If I could give Kadyn 10 out of 5 stars, I would. Not only did she come to our rescue when our other sitter unexpectedly (and quite unceremoniously, I should add) canceled our pet-sitting while my husband and I were across the ocean, but she also consistently went above and beyond. I sent her all the materials I had sent the other sitter and tried to be as available as possible, but she honestly didn't really need me. She took such amazing care of our two kitties and sent even better pictures and updates. If you're able to book her, absolutely do. Impeccable isn't praise enough.”
About: I started my experience caring for dogs in High school. I would spend my nights and weekend going to the local shelter to walk, play and even read books to the dogs. I have experience with bottle fed orphans all the way up to geriatric pups. Rest assured, no matter what stage your dog is at, I can meet them at the caring need they require. I enjoy spending my time with dogs, watching them play, grow and thrive! I currently have a flexible schedule and am able to spend a lot of quality time with your pup. We will go on walks, play fetch and send you lots of pictures to bring a smile to your face. I'm more than happy to work to accommodate special requests for the low and high maintenance dogs alike!
“Maggie was great - very communicative and spent plenty of quality time with our senior kitty. She also checked in with questions and updates, got our mail, and left our place in very good condition! Would definitely recommend her and use her again!”
“Evey has been terrific with my little rescue Marco. He is frightened of many things but continues to open up with each visit she makes. I do not worry when I am at work because I know he is enjoying her daily visits.”
“Rafaela was amazing with my two cats. They are anxious (like me) and they were comfortable with her immediately (rolled on their backs for belly rubs) which made me comfortable. She sent great photos and updates, communicated thoroughly, and I felt confident that the cats were well taken care of. When we met to exchange keys, she asked thorough questions and made sure she was prepared with all instructions. Rafaela is really kind, has a gentle energy with pets, and definitely understands how much humans cherish their animal companions. If I need a petsitter in the future, I'm definitely contacting her again. Highly recommend!”
About: With a lifelong love for furry companions, my pet care journey has been shaped by the joyous company of a Labrador and a Chihuahua, both cherished members of my family since their puppy days. This hands-on experience has instilled in me patience, a positive approach, and an unwavering commitment to providing animals with engaging and fulfilling experiences. I am dedicated to extending this passion to your beloved pets, ensuring they receive the utmost care, attention, and joyful moments during our time together. I have flexibility in my day to stretch my legs and accompany your dog on a walk prior to work, during my lunch, or after work. When I take dogs for a walk, I make sure to stay attentive to their requirements. I make a conscious effort to prevent any reactive situations for the dog, strive to make the walk enjoyable by incorporating numerous grassy sniffing areas, and remain consistently vigilant to ensure a positive and pleasant experience for the dog.

Shelby is amazing and went above and beyond for our old kitty! She made extra time to make sure she got her meds even when our cat was putting up a protest and took the time to play and hang with her. She even watered our plants without us asking! Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!
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.
The sitter was kind and my cats were okay when I returned home, which I appreciated. She followed the main care instructions and communication was good overall. However, I did notice that the visit seemed shorter than the 30 minutes booked, and I also had an issue with the automatic litter box running low on litter sooner than expected, which required me to book an additional visit. She mentioned not being very familiar with this type of litter box, so I would recommend leaving very detailed written instructions if you use automated pet devices. Overall, not a bad experience, but there were a few details that could have been handled better.

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.

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.
