“Patty did check in visits with our cat twice a day for two weeks. Our cat is quite anxious and I was worried about leaving her but I quickly felt at ease knowing that Patty was coming twice a day and communicating regularly with lots of detail about how the cat was doing and everything else related to the house. Patty went above and beyond, offering to bring in packages and checking the house for accidents. I would highly recommend hiring her to care for your pets, she is loving and patient and reliable. We will definitely be hiring her again”
“Daniel did a great job taking care of my dogs this weekend! He was reliable, professional, and clearly knows how to handle animals. My neighbors even mentioned how respectful and attentive he was with the dogs. Everything went smoothly, and I’ll be booking with him again. Highly recommend.”
“Kristie has watched our doggies a few times and she has been wonderful to both our Bob and Roxy. We have a very anxious older dog and she has been so patient with her. She is always on time and provides regular updates/pictures which makes me feel at ease. She always makes sure that our dogs are calm before she leaves them at the end of her dog sit. We appreciate her so much.”
“I knew I could trust Taylor the minute I met her and she told me she had 9 kitties, a dog, two Guinea Pigs and two kids. She sent us pictures of our fur babies during each visit, We will definitely use Taylor again and we highly recommend her for any pet sitting duties you will need. She is 5+ stars ?. Thank you Taylor.”
About: I’ve always been a total cat person! Whether it’s a playful kitten or a seasoned nap champion, I genuinely enjoy getting to know each cat’s unique personality. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of feline friends: energetic, shy, purr machines, and everything in between. I understand that each cat has different needs…whether that’s active playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone who knows how to give the perfect chin scratch. My goal is always to create a safe, loving, and low-stress environment. I keep their routine consistent, from feeding schedules and litter box care to making sure they have clean, cozy spots to relax. I’m also a bit of a neat freak, so their space stays fresh and tidy (no stinky boxes or spilled kibble here!). I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, and I’m quick to notice if something seems off. You’ll get updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is doing well and probably living their best life. Cat sitting, for me, is more than just a job. It’s a chance to bond, provide comfort, and be a trustworthy stand-in while you’re away. I genuinely love being part of their day and making sure they’re not just safe, but happy, relaxed, and completely spoiled. I babysit or run errands occasionally during the week, but I’m just five minutes away. It’s easy for me to stop by as needed. I have plenty of time to give your cat attention and care when it matters most. Your cat’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. I’m mindful of keeping doors and windows safe, removing any hazards, and ensuring they always have fresh water, a clean litter box, and their favorite cozy spots. I pay close attention to their behavior and health, and I’m quick to notice if something seems off. Whether they’re playful or prefer quiet time, I tailor their care to make them feel safe, seen, and loved.
“Emma was a wonderful help caring for our two kitties while we were gone. I was nervous to leave them in the care of someone new, but she was great! She showed up when she said she would and communicated regularly. We loved seeing the photos of our kitties and updates on how they were doing. We will definitely reach out to Emma for future kitty care.”
“Mackenna checked in on our dog while we were away for the day and took great care of her. She took our dog for a quick walk and gave her some much appreciated pets and treats. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Eden was wonderful with my full house of needy animals. She gave my cat his medications, handled my difficult dog, and was on time and communicated so well. I didnt feel stress knowing she was caring for our animals.”
“I have Ailen scheduled for recurring drop-in visits four days a week while I work 12-hour shifts as a nurse, and I couldn’t be happier. She is incredibly communicative, always punctual, and consistently goes above and beyond. I really appreciate how much time and care she gives my dog, and she even takes a moment to say hi to my cats, which means a lot. She is professional, trustworthy, and truly reliable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“Rose is absolutely amazing!! She really saved us when we had another sitter quit, mid booking. She is very trustworthy and responsible and great at communicating! We are so happy to have her care for our pets!”
“We just used Sheree for.the first time and she did an excellent job with our pets. She took extra time out to.bond with them and even out away our home chef order. We will definitely use her again”
“Kaitlyn did a great job dropping in on our cat while we were away. She provided updates regularly and sent us lots of photos. We’ll be sure to use Kaitlyn’s services again!”
About: I’ve worked at Wags and Wiggles daycare/boarding and cared for my own dog through her seniorhood.

I am available during the week and weekends. I am very flexible! I am happy to come to your home and stay overnight or come for daily visits to check on your pet and ensure their needs are met.
“Daly was incredible. My family and I were out of country for 2 weeks on vacation. We had never left our dog with anyone before and we were very nervous about it. Daly is very sweet and confident around us and our dog. Our dog was 1year and very high energy at times, but Daly was un-phased by the challenge. She has a lot of experience around animals and it shows. Being on complete opposite times zones was challenging, but Daly sent video, photos, updates and questions along the way to make sure we were informed about our dog everyday. It was absolutely perfect. I have no concerns about recommending her to friends and family and she will definitely be our dog’s go-to caregiver in the future!”
“Laura was great with our older Golden and was able to provide the extra care and meds he needed. We asked her to drop in and walk him as he was staying with my mother who was unable to do it. Laura was willing to help in any way she could during her 30 min drop in and was extremely helpful and flexible.”

Dawn is absolutely incredible. She was able to hunt down our very tricky cat and successfully give her the medication she needs. Pet sitters we've used in the past we're not able to do this. She let us know about a leaking pipe outside and was there to troubleshoot. We can't imagine traveling without her.
Ailen was a wonderful pet sitter for our cat and 2 dogs! She was able to watch our pets for a week on short notice and was extremely thorough with her care for them. She is an exceptional communicator, and kept us up-to-date on all things happening while we were away.
Hoai did a wonderful job caring for our two cats! We went away for a week and we really appreciated the updates that she provided each day, which included photos and videos. She was also was great about asking us questions about the cats or their supplies to ensure they were receiving the very best care. The clear communication made us feel confident that the cats were in good hands. This was our first time using Rover and we would definitely book with Hoai again!
We've trusted Nikki with our cat several times and she is always wonderful. She takes great care of him and sends the most amazing photos and videos, which make being away so much easier. We always come home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty and feel very lucky to have found her.

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.

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.
