“Stephanie is such a great person to have watch over animals. She watches my 2 cat babies and sent pictures detailed notes and cleaned all the kitty messes they made while I was away. I highly recommend her for pet sitting needs.”
“Anne is great! This is the third time Anne has looked after my cat. He typically hides when new people come over and Anne was able to get him to come out and he even solicited pets!”
“Isabel was awesome with our cat while we were gone on a long trip. They bonded quickly! I also really appreciated Isabel‘s responsible communication with me. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Rebooked with Andrew because I can't imagine trusting my precious baby cat and dog with anyone else! You'd think Andrew was Santa-Claws (ha, get it) from the way my dog IMMEDIATELY starts whining in excitement when he realizes "Uncle Andrew" is going to come spend time with him. My cat, who has NEVER voluntarily crawled onto my lap to sit and chill, is the total opposite with Andrew. He's both the cat AND the dog whisperer, and it's awesome. Andrew's great as always - punctual, caring, communicative, all the things that make for an excellent, trustworthy, above and beyond pet care giver.”
“Shiqi was amazing with our large orange cat. She is so caring and made him feel completely safe and comfortable. Communication was seamless - tons of photos/videos and updates, which we loved. She definitely went above and beyond meeting our big boy specific needs. We have already rebooked! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“We had a great experience with Johnason. He followed all our instructions carefully and sent regular updates. Our cat was well cared for, and we really appreciated his reliability and kindness. Thank you”
“Maria was amazing and went above and beyond to take care of our Leo, administering medication for him and even taking him into the vet when some concerning symptoms cropped up. We look forward to having Maria care for Leo again in the future.”

We have a fenced yard for playtime and exercise, and my friendly 11 years old dog will be your pup’s best friend . I provide a warm, family-like atmosphere where every pup feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for throughout the day:)
“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Tianying is easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond. Our cat needs medicine daily for diabetes, and we came home to a happy cat with good blood sugar level”
“Very trustworthy and would definitely recommend Jen. She paid a couple of drop in visits to look after our cat Bella and we could not be happier with the service Jen provided. Not only did she pay attention to all the details we left her but she also gave excellent recaps after each visit. It's clear she's a genuine animal lover and our cat (who is usually shy) was comfortable approaching her.”
“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”
“We have had Aurora watch our cats multiple times. She is very thorough and attentive and provides updates on how they are doing. Highly recommend her if you want peace of mind while you are away.”
About: Hi! I’m Ruupashi, a lifelong cat lover and proud cat mom to two very spoiled cats, Bailey and Gravy. I’ve had Bailey for years, and I also raised Gravy from a playful 5-month-old kitten into the happy adult cat he is today. That experience taught me how to care for energetic kittens, understand different personalities, and keep curious cats engaged, safe, and happy. I know that every cat is unique—some love attention, while others prefer their space. I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day. That means I can be dependable with visit times and give your cat the care and attention they deserve without feeling rushed. During each drop-in visit, I’ll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of playtime (if they’re interested), and lots of love and attention. I’m also happy to send detailed updates with photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and understand how important it is to keep your cat’s routine as normal as possible. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give my own. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule. I have a flexible routine that allows me to make drop-in visits throughout the day and give each cat plenty of time and attention. I’m able to plan visits around your cat’s needs while still maintaining a consistent schedule. For drop-in visits, I focus on making your cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I’ll provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, give them playtime and attention based on their personality, and make sure their space is clean and secure. I’ll also send photos and updates so you know how your cat is doing while you’re away. 🐾

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kilkare Woods
Performed great drop in visits for our two spoiled cats while we had a local trip. Also had last minute request to water some plants in the summer heat. House, cats, and plants were well taken care of during her visit and will use Alysson again in the future.
Linda was very gracious and flexible to help out when I made last-minute plans to my trip. She continued to send daily photos of my kitty Scooter during daily check-ins, which left me feeling relieved to see him getting some socialization. Loved the videos she sent of her petting and talking to him!

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 .

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 .
