“Last week was our first encounter with Samantha as Walter’s pet sitter and our house sitter. We received daily updates and photos, he was calm and happy when we returned home, and our house was in perfect order.”
“Elizabeth was/is amazing ! she was prompt and great with messaging, sending photos , reaching out with any questions. the house is amazing obviously she cleaned up litter, hay , disposed of wet food cans ... I could not be happier ! It really made the difference in being able to relax on vaca especially with insane heat. She went above and beyond checking thermostat and adjusting as needed ! thank you - will be in touch next vaca .”
“We always feel great when we go away and Elizabeth takes care of our fur babies. Your level of communication is amazing and we are lucky to have that you are available to take care of our babies when we are gone. Thank you so much!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Luie made it an absolutely amazing experience! He took such wonderful care of our kitties and completely put our minds at ease. Our biggest concern was making sure our oldest cat, Skittles, received medication, but Luie was able to administer it successfully and without any problems. He sent us lots of pictures and regular updates while we were away. It felt incredibly reassuring to know our cats were truly cared for so we did not have to worry at all. Luie is a fantastic sitter, and we highly recommend him to anyone!!”
“My pets Daisy and Missy were very happy when Delany would make her daily visits. Delany was always on time and very conscientious with making sure the kitties had fresh food and water and clean litter boxes. Delany went the extra and made sure they had lots of playtime and most important sent me lots of pictures with her update. I’m very happy with the care my pets received with Delany and would love to have her care for my kitties the next time I travel.”
“Kelsey did a fine job for us. Dogs liked her and they got their daily walk in. This was our second time working with her. We’d request her again but our schedules aren’t working out this time.”
“I'd give more than five stars if I could. Rachael looked after my two cats for a long weekend. One is very shy and timid in new places, and the other is needy and cuddly but can sometimes decide she'd rather hiss at you instead. Both were cared for with patience and understanding, and with more time I think they'd probably decide to stay there permanently. Thanks Rachael for being so accommodating!”
About: Over the past several months, I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions. Every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience administering medications to senior dogs and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully and consistently. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. When I house sit, I also take great pride in caring for your home. I always aim to leave it cleaner than I found it, so you can come home to happy pets and a tidy, well-cared-for space. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing both your furry family members and your home are in caring, reliable hands. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week as well as house sit for as long as you need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.
“Christina took excellent care of our two cats and a hermit crab while we were away for a whole holiday week. The update notes and photos made us feel so much better while we were so far away. Her knowledge and skills gave us complete confidence, and we would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
“Wonderful experience. My dogs loved Kara and she dod the best job caring for them while we were away. Overall a lovely animal lover amd we would be thrilled to work with in the future! Highly recommend!!!”
“We love our fur baby, but would be lying if we didn’t say that she is one spicy cat, especially for strangers. Shelby was incredible from the moment she walked through the door. Timely, reliable, and extremely communicative. Already planning to book her again for our next trip!”
“My cat Blue is a 18 pound scaredy cat. Heather did all she could do to get Blue to come out of hiding. The first day she did take a picture of him behind the couch. After that he could not be found. Heather fed him, gave him fresh water every day and cleaned his litter box. Heather did a great job caring for Blue.”

About: My passion for animal care began at age 8 and spans over 13 years of hands-on experience from personal pets as well as from my career. Currently, I work as a veterinary assistant at a general practice clinic, where I assist with routine examinations, diagnostic procedures, and treatment protocols while providing compassionate care to animals and educating pet owners. I am currently enrolled in the Veterinary Technology Program at Delaware Technical Community College, pursuing comprehensive training in animal health, medical procedures, and veterinary science.

As a veterinary assistant, I understand the importance of consistent care and reliable scheduling.

I treat your home with complete respect, leaving everything clean and secure.

About: My schedule can be flexible so please let me know what you need and I'll be sure to let you know if we can make it work! I have owned a couple dogs in the past and dog sit for my family and friends all the time. We currently have two cats that are dog friendly, or tolerant. We’d love to host your fur babies with us for a long weekend to let you get away. I work full-time Mon-Fri so would mostly be available for weekend boarding, Fri-Sun. I am available for drop in visits or walks during the week after 5pm. We have a fully fenced in yard with tons of shade and multiple rooms and spaces to separate animals as needed. Dogs are TOTALLY allowed on furniture and we have healthy treats as their diets allowed. Big neighborhood for walks (with sidewalks) and the pavement is always tested on my own skin before their precious paws. I have lick mats and kongs for mental stimulation and love to fill them with protein and veggies.
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kent Acres
Elizabeth did an amazing job checking in on my cats while I was away! I really appreciated the pictures of the food bowls, water fountain, and litter box so I knew for sure everything looked good. She sent some wonderful pictures of the cats themselves and even a video of one of them playing with a toy! The boys both seemed to get comfortable with her very quickly and everything was super clean when I got home. She’s a fantastic cat sitter and I definitely hope to book with her again for my next trip!
This was our second time booking with Christina, and it was our first time going away now that both of our cats require daily oral medications. They’re also not super friendly when it comes to strangers, but with Christina’s knowledge and suggestions we came up with a plan that made us feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. She did a fantastic job giving them all of their medicines, and spending time with them, and her clear communication each day always left us feeling like we made the right choice.
Samantha was so good with my 10 year old cat who recently started medication and needs to take it twice a day at very specific times. She came out for a meet and greet on short notice to make sure my cat let her administer her medication before I booked and she really gave me peace of mind for my trip. This was the first time I had used rover and my cat is not used to being by herself so I was really nervous but Samantha was always punctual, spent the full 30 minutes twice a day playing with her, brushing her, and giving her all the pets, and sent updates consistently so I definitely recommend Samantha! Can’t thank Samantha enough!
Chloe did a phenomenal job accompanying and caring for my cat. She has a calm and caring temperament about her and truly cares for the animals under her care. Also, she communicated everything to me in a timely manner and I couldn't recommend her enough! Thanks, Chloe!
My cat Missy was well taken care of while I was on vacation by Meagan. She seemed happy to see us and not at all angry that we had been away.I could tell she benefited well having Meagan take care of her. Meagan is very friendly and was very responsive whenever I would reach out to her. I’m happy with her care of Missy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
