About: What makes our home different is simple: your dog won’t be one of many. We only care for one family’s dog at a time, so your dog receives our full attention without having to adjust to a house full of unfamiliar dogs. We also have no resident pets and no children, creating a peaceful, predictable environment that can be especially comforting for older dogs, anxious dogs, or dogs who simply prefer a quieter home. I work from home, which means your dog won’t spend long stretches of the day alone. They’ll have companionship, supervision, affection, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of time to settle in and feel comfortable. My husband and I have cared for our own dogs through every stage of life, including the senior years and vision loss. That experience taught us how important patience, routine, reassurance, and individualized care can be. We understand that some dogs need a little more time, a slower pace, medication, extra help navigating their surroundings, or simply someone nearby who makes them feel secure. After losing our two beloved dogs, we’re not quite ready to bring another dog into our family, but we deeply miss having dogs in our lives. When a dog stays with us, they truly become part of our home while they’re here. Whether your dog wants to curl up next to me while I work, follow us from room to room, enjoy walks and playtime, or find a favorite quiet spot to nap, we’ll follow their normal routine and let them be themselves. One family at a time. No resident pets. No children. Someone home throughout the day. Our goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog isn’t simply being boarded — they’re staying in a calm, loving home where they are our priority. I work from home full-time in a quiet home with no children or pets, providing constant supervision, companionship, personalized care, and plenty of attention. I provide a safe, loving home where dogs receive patience, affection, one-on-one attention, and gentle care tailored to their unique needs and personality.
“Mariah did a great job. Always keeps us informed and sends great photos. The house is in great shape when we get home. Offered to come an extra day if we got stuck in bad weather”
“Catherine was an amazing sitter for my cat Chitti! She had great communication skills and was very attentive to my girls body language and needs. I would definitely book her again for future sitting needs!”
“Isabella helped me out on short notice when my typical sitter became unavailable, and she was awesome. Reliable, experienced, friendly, and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend!”
About: I've walked dogs before, but I am not as experienced with dogs as I am with cats, however, I like dogs and hope to get more experience caring for them. I currently attend university, I'm also a student athlete, but I'd love to make some extra cash and I really love animals. I am studying animal behavior at school. For both cats and dogs, I will do whatever asked of you in terms of how often to feed them, take them out, medicate them, etc. However my schedule is very busy and I might not be able to go to your house multiple times a day.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, from Siamese cats to Great Danes! Huge lover of the outdoors and animals of all kinds, especially my sweet 13 year old kitty, Cranberry Bog! :) I work in the education field, so I am avaliable after 2:30 every week day, with most weekends open to take care of your special furry friends! I am a huge believer in creating a safe space for all animals and ensuring their comfort while in my care! I will always communicate with pet parents about all steps of the care process & updates! :)
About: I grew up with a giant chocolate lab & a beagle as my childhood dogs & I LOVED them, family of mine had a smalller mini pincher so I also know how smaller dogs can be compared to large dogs. While iI am at university I do have 3 dogs at home 2 rescues & 1 black lab they are my girls! I am a full time student at the local university but i am looking to fit in time with animals not only to enhance my knowledge of their behaviors & just general knowledge it’d also an easy way for me to learn the area & make money! I have administered shot & pill medications to both cats & dogs in the past, love to be active but also chill around & snuggle & LOOOOVE to make healthy bowls/snacks for animals!
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and small animals. I also regularly volunteer with a local rescue organization so I am used to taking care of dogs and cats with all different types of temperaments. I currently have a 2 cats and saltwater fish tank. I love helping other people care for their pets when needed. I also have worked as a pet care associate for a while, so I dealt with all kinds of animals including reptiles, fish, and small animals. I was an EMT, and now am a scheduler for Mass general hospital and going to nursing school, and in my free time I would love to help take care of your pet! I really enjoy getting to know dogs, cats, or whatever species your pet is, and finding out each individual animals personality. I like to tailor what activities we do together to the animal and what they most like to do. I am very excited to meet your pet. I will follow whatever instructions are given to me about how to provide care specifically for your pet. I will send you updates on how your pet is doing, and will take great care of them! I work from home part time while going to school full time. So my hours and availability is flexible each week. I am able to accommodate a range of schedules needed for pet care depending on the week. I treat every pet like they're my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I do my best to stick to their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also respect each client's home and make sure to leave everything just as I found it.
About: I have a 2 year old dog name Jerry. I have learned so much about pet care through taking care of him. I grew up around plenty of animals- cats and dogs. Please let us know how we can care best for you and your pet! I am in the military and slowly transitioning to a new unit. I have availability every day! I frequently update my calendar. I would love to help out in anyway that I can. Whether it is a walk or a short visit, let me know if I can be of any help! This is my first time using this app, but I would love to try something new and super excited to meet your fur baby! :) I can help administer meds or any other medical assistance as needed. I take my dog for frequent walks and can have him accompany if you are comfortable or I can go solo. I am happy to help you and your fur baby!
About: I work at an emergency vet and have ample shelter experience, meaning that I love to take care of any type of animal. Have cats? Amazing! Have dogs? Also amazing! Have Chickens? Also also amazing! Whether your dog is super social or has stranger danger—I will gladly take care of any breed of dog. As previously mentioned I do love stranger danger pups—with my shelter experience, I’m incredibly skilled and patient with going at their pace. If you do have a stranger danger dog, I will gladly meet up as many times as needed for them to be comfortable with me free of charge before services are needed :) I work nights, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! If there’s any special care needed, I would be happy to accommodate and chat! I’m very respectful of other’s homes—I will cater to the animal’s needs! Doesn’t matter if they have a unique feeding routine or if they’re high energy. I’m also educated on resource guarding, so just let me know what’s needed! :)
About: My parents ran a German shepherd dog breeding business when I was growing up. I helped deliver puppies and tend to our 5+ adult dogs and litters of puppies from a young age. Additionally, I've raised and cared for cats throughout my life. In college, I worked seasonally for a dog daycare and boarding facility. Post college, I worked for a dog trainer and took dogs on hikes in the woods. I would be more than happy to hike your dogs if they enjoy that level of exercise. I prefer to organize a meet up with your pets before watching them to get a better understanding of their mannerisms and needs so I can best accommodate. I work part time for a few different companies. My work is flexible if given enough time in advance. Happy to discuss further as needed. I maintain your pups regular routine to the best of my ability. It is important for your pups to have as much "normal" as possible, sometimes it's tough on them for their parents to be away.
“Julia was great - she came over to meet me and the kitties, is responsive and available and building a relationship with my kitties which is great for when I go away and feel I can leave them in good hands! Thank you.”
“Brianna was an amazing sitter for our cats! We received detailed reports each day of the time spent with our cats. We will absolutely be booking Brianna again based on professionalism and care for our cats.”
“Richard was wonderful with my shy cat Sophie. I was worried she would hide during the drop in visits, but it wasn't long before Richard won her over. He sent photos, was communicative, and flexible with times. I would definitely recommend him, and look forward to using his services in the future.”

Emily is great! She takes care of your pets as if they were her own.

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.
