“Mallory is excellent with our cats and dogs! She was available last minute and I was very very satisfied with her service. She gave our pets medication, pills and shots. She was very knowledgeable in administration of meds. She is always punctual and reliable. She really puts my mind at ease when leaving my pets. So professional and friendly! I have come in contact with some sitters that weren’t as professional. I can tell she’s been doing this for quite a while. The pets absolutely love her! My cat always hides and never comes out while we have a sitter but she came right out and that let me know she’s a great loving sitter. I’ll always rehire her when I can. So amazing! Thank you so much Mallory.”
“Julia was fantastic. We needed someone to drop in for our chocolate lab while we were away for a softball tournament. I realized he needed two drop ins and she was very accommodating. She was punctual, friendly, and took good care of our boy. Would recommend Julia 🙂”
About: I grew up on a dairy farm with all sorts of animals around. I have had many dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, rabbits, rats, and horses over the years. I have a degree in Equestrian Science and have taken care of animals my entire adult life. I have always been an avid hiker as well and love to take the pups on walks around the area. I currently own 3 dogs, a parrot, and 2 chickens and will give your animals the same love and attention that I give my own! I'm currently working part time and so have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am currently available for house sitting, drop in visits and dog walking. If your dogs get along with mine I might be able to do boarding as well. I have a dog door at my house with a fenced in yard along with 5 acres of fields to walk in. When coming to your home, I use my deep knowlege of dogs, cats, and other animals to keep your animals happy in their own home where your pets are MOST comfortable. They have the comfort of knowing they are safe in a place where they can learn to trust me and we can develop a bond so I can give your pets the same level of love and care as I would give my own pets.
“I was very happy with my overall experience with Rover. It was easy to set up and choose someone to care for my 2 cats when I was out of town. Nancy was great! She came when she said she would and gave me updates at each visit. When I came home, the house was so calm and peaceful. The cats were safe, fed and happy. I would definitely recommend Nancy and will use her again in the future. Thanks! :) Rose G.”
“Vicky did an awesome job caring for Bruce. She was in communication with me and sent great pictures so I had complete peace of mind. I think Bruce really liked Vicky and the feeling was mutual. I highly recommend Vicky to care for your fur baby.”
About: I’ve volunteered at animal shelters since I was a young teen, taken care of neighbor’s pets while they were away on vacation, and most of all, have thoroughly cared for my own pets since I was a child. I have taken care of cats and dogs, as well as rabbits and other small animals. I currently have an 8 year old long haired rescue cat named Jasper who calls my house his home! 🐈⬛ I’m a full time music teacher during the week, so ideally I will be available to walk dogs on the weekends. Please feel free to reach out with any specific time concerns or requests! If I am walking your dog or visiting your pets for a drop-in, my main goal is to care for them as if they were my own pet. My love and care for animals runs very deep, and I aim to extend that to any pets in my care.
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. My family has only ever had cats or dogs, but I have had the opportunity to care for cats, dogs, bunnies, snakes, and more! I’ve had and cared for young puppies and kittens to senior pets, and enjoy caring for all animals. I am a teacher on Summer break and would love the opportunity to help care for your pets while you are busy or away! Please feel free to ask about availability, right now I am very flexible! :) I am a teacher who is on summer break so I currently have a flexible schedule. This means I can drop by to care for pets as needed throughout the day! While I do have pets at home, I am currently renting and unable to board any pets in my house. Instead, I am able to offer drop in services or dog walking! I also am a very active person and would love the opportunity to bring your dog on a run or a hike (with your permission of course)! I am available to stop by for multiple walks/play sessions throughout the day. I have experience with caring for animals overnight as well as housekeeping while pet owners are away. Please let me know if you’d prefer me to do drop-ins during the day or need me to stay overnight for your pet!
“Jennifer stops by for drop in visits for our senior golden retriever , and we are so lucky to have her coming to our house. Knowing that our dog with someone so caring gave us so much peace of mind. We are grateful for the attention she gives to our pet. She is punctual, always on time and communicates very well. We will continue using her as our pet sitter. Thank you Jennifer.”
About: Hi there! My name is Madeline, and I would love to hear from you about your furry friend. I grew up surrounded by horses, dogs, and cats alike on farms across the Hudson Valley, which instilled a love for animals within me at a very young age. I understand that each client and animal requires an individualized approach. I am more than willing to listen to your desires and make adjustments to accommodate them to the best of my ability. I would consider myself quite the outdoorsy person, which makes me a great candidate to spend time with your animals. I am more than willing to answer any questions that you may have for me, and I look forward to hearing from you. I enjoy spending time with animals and ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, and affection. I plan my schedule to be sure every pet gets the care they need, whether it's walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company and comfortable. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following the owner's instructions carefully and maintaining their normal routine. I give pets plenty of love, attention, and positive interaction while respecting their individual personalities and needs.
“Xiomara was very communicative and detailed in her updates, which gave me a lot of confidence that my cat was safe and well fed while I was gone! Overall she is very professional, friendly, and clearly cares about animals!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kipps
We have used Madison in the past and we are always happy with the results! Bugsy loves her! I mean absolutely loves her! We have an in home camera & he is always attached to her hip! He is normally very shy so I was shocked when he first met her and took to her right away. I believe animals are very good judges of character and bugsy definitely approves of her! She always follows my instructions to a T, no matter how tedious or annoying they may be! Im a bit of an over bearing pet parent but thanks so much for dealing with me Madison! I wouldn’t use anyone else :)
Sam was wonderful with our senior cat, Potato. She followed all of our instructions and was super communicative. She went above and beyond to make sure Potato had plenty of stimulation and affection as well as a clean and comfortable environment. It's very clear how much Sam loves animals in how she cares for them and how much she knows. Thank you, Sam!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 852 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Kipps. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kipps. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% can help with daily exercise
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 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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
