“Becca did a great job watching my cat—super responsive and easy to work with. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Kati did an awesome job with a very stubborn, picky dog =) He’s getting old and had a paw infection that required oral medications twice a day. He’s very picky and anxious, and Kati made me feel like he was in great hands. She also went above and beyond to take care of his toenail when it bled and bothered him. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Katerina, Thank you for looking after our cats while we were away! They were very well taken care of and we will definitely be rebooking for our future cat-sitting needs!”
“Taylor was great with our cat while we were gone on a long trip. Lots of updates, pictures & videos and love for our kitty. Lovely person - we would def book with her again.”
“Kelsey watched our cat for a week while we were out of town. She was always on time, took great photos and took excellent care of “our boy.” An issue came up with our garage door opening on its own, and Kelsey quickly got in touch with us and manually closed the door. And she made sure our house was secure. She made us feel completely secure knowing our house and our cat were being taken care of. We would definitely use Kelsey’s services again.”
“Dorothy was great to work with! She was very communicative with her visits, and our cat was happy to see her when she stopped by. We came to a well taken care of home and kitty 😊 Would recommend and book with her again!”
“Jennifer was a life saver and such a help with my two pups! Was traveling in the area and needed help at the hotel while I attended an event. She was professional, polite, communicative and the pups loved her! Would absolutely book again.”
“Christina did a wonderful job taking care of our cat Ginger while we were out of town for a week. We especially appreciated her detailed and humorous updates each day. Highly recommended!”
“Delaney was great from start to finish! We were able to coordinate a meet & greet prior to the requested booking dates to ensure both parties got along well. My cat was well taken care of - and Delaney even helped out with the mail and weekly garbage/recycling pick up. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone needing their cat cared for while they’re away.”
“Aury has been so attentive and caring for my cats this past year. I am relocating for work and truly wish I could move her with me! I never had to worry when I left town because she always took such good care of my cats and sent me tons of photos and videos. 100/10 recommend, Aury is the best!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve helped friends and neighbors by providing dependable pet sitting, dog walking, and daily care while they were away. I’ve also been a pet owner for over 15 years, caring for both a small Shih Tzu and a large Golden Retriever weighing over 80 pounds, so I’m comfortable handling pets of all sizes and energy levels. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, basic routines, and making sure pets feel safe and loved in their home environment. I also have experience caring for cats, including feeding and cleaning litter boxes. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part-time from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available both during the week and on weekends. This means I can provide consistent care, regular walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day, depending on your pet’s needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether they are in my home or in their own familiar space. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved by sticking closely to their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I enjoy spending quality time with them, giving them attention, affection, and exercise based on their needs and energy level. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, walks, and any special routines. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of companionship so they never feel lonely while their owners are away. My goal is to help every pet feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for.
“Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.”
“Haven did drop in visits for us when we left for the hospital to have a baby. Penny was well cared for and happy as a clam when we returned, and Haven was super flexible with us as babies tend to come on their own timelines! Thanks so much Haven for your help!”

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.
