“Saige was a fantastic sitter! She communicated well and was very kind and timely. My cats were very well taken care of and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands, especially because they seemed to like her right off the bat which is not normal for them! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Nicole was very attentive when caring for Octavio, took the time to send pictures and videos to allow me to see him while away. Always had great communication in regards to any care instructions. Greatly appreciate her help”
“Olga was fantastic! Our cats typically do not do very well with temporary changes in their environment and have not done well when boarded previously. Olga sent us regular updates and photos of them and it was very clear that they got much more comfortable staying with her after a short adjustment period. Can not recommend her enough! We will absolutely bring our pets back to her in the future any time they need to be boarded! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boys Olga!!!”
“Katie did a great job with her drop-ins with my cats! It’s was so great seeing pictures while I was away! And both of them were much happier than when I’ve just had a friend drop by once during vacation. I think her presence and interaction made them feel like I didn’t abandon them! Thank you so much!!!!!”
“Sandra was so great with Midnight! I was nervous about leaving him home alone for a weekend for the first time but Sandra put my mind at ease. He was happy and well taken care of. She communicated so well and sent me adorable pictures. She can come watch my cat anytime - I highly recommend Sandra!”
About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years, including week-long stays watching dogs in their own homes, as well as regular check-ins on both indoor and outdoor cats. I know how much routine and comfort matter to pets when their people are away, and I take that seriously. I'm a lifelong cat person at heart—my cat Gemma (full name Gemma J Hendrix Shanahan, if we're being formal) is a black cat with a spunky personality, and my actual life mission is making sure she's the coziest gal in the world. That same mindset carries over to every pet I care for: attentive, affectionate, and tuned in to what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable. I'm currently in a flexible stretch while I await my bar exam results, which means I have plenty of availability right now for walks, drop-ins, and even extended or overnight stays. I know that kind of open schedule can be hard to come by, so I'm happy to be flexible around your travel dates or last-minute needs. I take caring for pets very seriously, and safety is always my first priority. Whether we're on a walk, playing in the backyard, or just hanging out on the couch, I provide individualized, attentive care based on what each pet needs and is comfortable with. In a client's home, I stick closely to your routines—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific rules you have—so your pet's environment stays as consistent and stress-free as possible while you're away. I never leave pets unsupervised in unfamiliar or unsecured areas, and I keep a close eye on behavior and body language so I can catch early signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. I'm also happy to send photo or video updates so you have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll always reach out directly if anything seems off rather than waiting until you're back.
“Lulu was fantastic with my kitty Arthur! She provided daily commentary updates and photos of how Arthur spent his day! In every photo he looked happy and relaxed doing his normal kitty things! He was so happy to have her company that he performed some “zoomies” for her! That is a sure sign that Arthur felt safe and secure in her care. Lulu was a great “kitty friend” for him! And the house looked great when I arrived home, too! She’s the best!”
About: I provide dependable, caring pet care with a focus on keeping pets comfortable and following their normal routines while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and overnight stays. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I follow each owner’s instructions carefully. I’m comfortable caring for multiple-pet households and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets and home are being looked after. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including weekends. During house-sitting stays, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I may leave during the day for other commitments, but I’ll make sure your pets receive the care, attention, and breaks we agree on before your booking. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, crates, doors, gates, and any special needs. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away. Before a booking, I like to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, and any important safety information so I can provide the best care possible.
About: I have took care of animals since I was young I have been around animals even longer. I have always loved them. I promise you can trust me I am currently working part-time and also I am a Full time student .Some weeks my schedule is a little all over the place but, Tuesdays and Thursdays are the best days for me! I prefer taking care of your pet at your home but , I do have a fence yard and friendly animals of my own. I am fine with playing fetch and walking them around your or my neighborhood
“Our pets loved having Katy watch after them while we were out of town. We have two senior cats who both need medication/insulin twice daily, and as Katy has two senior cats and two senior dogs of her own, she is very skilled at administering medications if your pet has that need. Our cat Birdy suddenly took ill while we were out of town, and Katy was very prompt with letting us know what was happening and took Birdy to the vet when she needed professional intervention. We are grateful to Katy for her kindness and helpfulness and love for the animals in her care.”
About: I have had pets since I was a young child. My children have had pets since they were babies. My oldest two girls are excited to help and play with your fur babies. Both have done dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family overnight and during the day. I currently work during the week, but my husband and children are home all day. We are all home on the weekends and evenings. We currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats. We do not a have a fenced in yard, but have several leashes. We also have crates that we use for 2 of our younger dogs when we leave the house. Dogs are out and about at all times when we are home. We go for walks in the evenings when it’s not too hot. Our cats are out at all times and have no trouble with the dogs.
About: I've spent years watching the pets of my friends and family. They have trusted me to bathe, feed, play, and care for their fur babies. I’m in between jobs and have lots of time to fit the needs that are required of me :) I am mostly free on the weekdays and my weekends are always free. Where I live currently isn’t suitable for pet sitting but I am more than willing to dog sit at the clients home if need be.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 12 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I specialize in caring for pets in their own home, where they feel the most comfortable and secure. I do my best to keep your pets routine as consistent and comfortable as I can while you’re away! I’m respectful, clean, and treat every home with care, and I know how important it is to trust the person staying in your space. You can expect consistent communication, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just having someone nearby, I tailor my care to their personality and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and well-loved the entire time. I’m here to make being away from your pet as easy and worry-free as possible! I am fully available at the moment! I love animals and think this would be a great way to spend my time while supplementing my income. I care for peoples pets by doing exactly as their owners have taught me. I want the animals I care for to feel comfortable and as if their owner isn’t away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lees Summit
Makenzie provided excellent care for my three cats during a long 10 day trip! The cats were very comfortable with her, greeting her at the door every day, including the shy kitty. Makenzie paid attention to details like a power outage due to a storm, potential frost affecting my outdoor plants, and damage to a toy that the cats chewed on. I highly recommend her, and would definitely call her again in the future.
Gracie liked Saige immediately, which came as a surprise as our cat likes no one. Saige kept to the schedule promised and documented each visit. It was nice to have the peace of mind of your pet being cared for properly. We will look to book Saige again for our next trip.

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.
