“Repeat client here, again a great experience having Shaelyn look after our kitties. She’s so communicative, it really puts me at ease when I’m away from home. We are so lucky to have her look after our fur family.”
“Highly recommend Georgia! She took the time to really try to win over my cat who is generally hesitant of new people in her space. She also sent plenty of photos and was very responsive!”
“My dog does not trust new people easily, but she warmed up to Isabelle’s sweet personality right away. She said no coaxing was needed after the first day and she always came right down to eat.”
“Alura is reliable, trustworthy, and attentive. Alura has taken care of Poot over the past year (although this is my first time using Rover), and I really appreciate all the love and care she gives Poot. Thanks for looking after Poot!”
“So amazing and so loving with our fur baby! This is the second time we have had Autumn care for our fur baby, and we will continue to come back!☺️ thank you so much for being there while we couldn’t!”
About: On my mother’s farm I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, ducks, horses, and a donkey! I have fostered multiple puppies and helped with their potty training. I currently own two dogs myself, a 2 yr old Great Dane and a 12 yr old Blue Heeler who has dementia. I understand the patience furry family members need, as well has routine. I do my best to make every pet and person feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m currently working on my Master’s degree and as a para at a local school. I am available during the week before 7am and after 3pm. Weekends have varied availability so be sure to check my calendar! I am a certified teacher so I have completed background checks and can promise I will treat your home better than my own during drop-in visits. I am also comfortable providing medication if needed.
About: Lifelong animal lover of all shapes and sizes. I have the most experience caring for cats and dogs but have previously cared for and am comfortable with fish, birds, reptiles and small mammals. I regularly pet sit for friends and family and dedicate most of my time caring for my own pets. In my spare time, I volunteer at a local cat shelter. Most of my time is dedicated to caring for my own pampered pets but as well as others. I regularly pet sit for family and friends and on average take care of a handful of them 3-4 times a month. I try to spend my time surrounded by as many animals as possible. I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog. There is a large backyard with enough room for running and multiple rooms available for isolating animals if needed. I always have extra cat and dog supplies.
About: I am off early on weekdays and have most weekends off. I have not met a dog I do not love. I belive dogs are part of the family and should be treated like one. I have a 13 year old Yorkie with Heart failure who loves cuddles and is now slowing down with his older age so I am very patient. I will give lots of cuddles and treats. (I will also provide my own treats of that is ok with you and your dogs diet in case they have any restrictions) I enjoy nice long walks and playing fetch. I will also send you pictures of your dog so you know they are being well taken care of so you can enjoy your day and not worry. I’m a teacher working part-time this year, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available throughout the afternoons and evenings during the week, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I love having pet care as part of my routine and can be flexible depending on each pet’s schedule. I treat every pet like they’re my own! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routines. Whether it’s feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I pay attention to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I also respect my client’s home, keep everything clean, and provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 6. I grew up with a dog, people we knew had dogs, and we always had at least 1 cat in our care. Animals were what I knew. And still do. I’m intuitive when it comes to your furry child’s needs and currently look over the pets of my family and friend’s while they’re away. I can generally get somewhere after work at around 530pm. I love to walk and can provide daily walks for pets. On the weekends, I can make myself available for all day and care :) I’m in a small new studio so I’d prefer to watch pets at their homes. Many animals feel more at home in their familiar environment, removing the extra anxiety since they may already be stressed without their caregiver. I’m very attentive to your furry child’s needs, with water, food, walks, playtime, basic training etc. :)
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for and trained pets for as long as I can remember. I’m comfortable with different ages, personalities, energy levels, and routines, including puppies and basic training. I’ve volunteered with animal shelters and Walk for the Animals for multiple years, and I also have experience house and pet sitting for multi-pet households. One included caring for a dog, a bunny, three adult cats, and four kittens at the same time! I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’ll care for yours with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. ❤️ I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on your pets! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, playtime, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority. I follow your care instructions closely and take time to learn each pet’s personality, boundaries, and needs. Whether I’m in your home or out on a walk, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own.
“Sierra was responsive, friendly and arrived on time for each of 3 walks we booked. She took good care of our senior dog, sent pictures and was in good communication. Much appreciated!”
“Krystal went above and beyond in every way caring for our two cats as well as our home on a recent long trip. I cannot recommend her enough if you want to feel like your furry friends are being cared for as if by yourself! Additionally, her updates and communication during each visit were excellent and always cheered me up.”
About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover. I have experience wearing for puppies, seniors, dogs of all sizes, cats, and bunnies. I am reliable, communicative, and a warm and patient companion for your loved one. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority and I always respect their boundaries as living beings. I can’t wait to meet them! I work free-lance and set my own schedule, so I am able to be flexible with my pet care scheduling. I do require 3 day notice for overnight stays. Beyond basic safety and care, I will follow whatever routine is normal for you and your pet. I will request details about your pets disposition and individual needs to best care for them. I understand the worries that can come with entrusting the care of your pet to another person, and will be consistently available for check ins, and sending photos and/or videos so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: Hello! I was raised around livestock and animals my entire life, and I have experience in the care of both large and small animals. I’ve provided care for dogs, cats, and farm animals—both big and small. I worked in a farm store for many years, some of which I was as an Animal Health Specialist, allowing me to broaden my education on various pet and farm animal care levels. I was raised around high-drive dogs, so I have experience with and an understanding of high-energy dog breeds as well. One of my passions involves helping to foster and home puppies for a herding dog organization, so I have plenty of experience with the young ones! I'm just a girl who loves being around animals and providing excellent care for them. My schedule is very flexible and open which allows me the opportunity to be able to look after and care for your furry loved ones! Offering animal care in your pets own home allows your pets to feel comfy, safe & secure! I keep all my animals big and small very happy and spoiled and you can expect me to do the same with your loved ones too!
About: I’ve grown up always having animals. My best friends family owned a horse farm where they had everything from bunnies to goats and even minis or mules. Personally came from a household with dogs, cats, fish, turtles and the occasional pair of small rodents. I am not only able to feed, walk and play/ exercise animals but can also successfully administer any medications, treatments, bathing routines, etc. New to Portland. Working part-time. Desire to explore different areas and get some exercise. Looking to do more pet care in my down time. What better way to do all of that than to help care for your precious beans. In home or outdoor venture approved! Resilient and adaptable, I vow to care for each animal as they specifically need tended to. This helps me create and maintain a bond with your pets (family members).
About: I’m a dependable animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for animals such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, goats, horses, and donkeys including feeding, walks, playtime, medication routines, and giving anxious pets extra patience and attention. I understand how important updates are, so I make sure owners receive regular photos and communication for peace of mind. I am home full time and won’t leave your pet alone. I am available for pet sitting, boarding, drop ins or walks! I work from home, and will not be leaving your pets side. I am happy to pick up your pet from your house as well. Whatever you need just let me know! I have a house with a fenced yard. We have no other pets and no children so it will make a perfect calm place for any pets that are nervous from being away from their own home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Shore
Ana is truly wonderful. She immediately presents with a calm friendly trustworthy manner. I sought her out for her medical training for help and suggestions with a cat that needs injections. It was hard to filter that out in search paarmeters but I really lucked out coming across Ana. She was very sweet with my dog and two cats and listened empathically to each of my pets needs and requirements. I look forward to working with her further on. I travel a lot and my pets needs are particular, I don't trust many with my pets, especially my dog. I feel confident my pets will be safe and well cared for with her.
Mark just watched our kitty while we were on a camping trip. Cali needs medicine twice a day. Mark made sure she got her Rx, food, water and lots of loves. Cali is very shy and hides from new people. It was so nice to see photos each day of Cali getting pets and looking happy. Mark also left notes about how things went each day. It really allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip. Thank you so much, Mark for going above and beyond for us and for Cali. 💜
Emma has been a great asset to my two very different kitties while we were away. We have a complicated situation with an outdoor kitty, and a very indoor/walk only on leash kitty. She was diligent at cleaning and maintaining a healthy environment for my fur children. I got lots of great photos and even the timid outdoor kitty warned up to her almost immediately 🐈 😺

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
