“Shelby continues to provide exceptional care even with the addition of two new kittens. To complete all the tasks involved with caring for the kittens and our older cat, she was very efficient while giving them all equal attention. All of them seemed very happy looking at their daily report cards. We'll continue to use Shelby in the future.”
“Jordan is amazing! I truly appreciated her excellent communication, genuine care, and professionalism. My very shy cat never lets anyone else touch him, but thanks to Jordan’s patience and kindness, I saw pictures of him being petted by her—which I could hardly believe! I will absolutely be using her services again and cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“This is our 3rd time with Jessica. Each time she does an excellent job, spends time with the kitties, and keeps us posted with comments and pictures. This time, in addition to the kitties, she watered our plants. Highly recommended, and we will definitely ask for her again the next time we need someone to take care of our two cats!”
“Bailey was excellent! I tend to leave very specific instructions, and Bailey followed them to a tee! My feeders have a light that indicates that they’re working properly and I said “bonus points if the rover pic has the lights on” and every single rover card had a picture with the lights on!! Really allows me to feel like my cats are in good hands when I leave. Also this was a very last-minute trip and Bailey was fast to respond, and available for key pick up before I left. 5/5 for sure!”
“Alana is an extraordinary sitter! She’s very intuitive with her care. She loves my two 19 year old cats and takes wonderful care of them. Alana goes above and beyond in their care, including giving fluids to one of my cats. Twice daily updates and pictures were very part of her care and very appreciated! The cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. I would highly recommend Alana!”
“We can't thank Lisa enough for how she took care of our cat. We were away in another country when Dante had a medical emergency, and she took him to the vet and stayed there for as long as they were running the tests. She then went to buy his meds, special food, etc. That's truly going above and beyond, way more than we would expect from a cat sitter. She showed so much genuine care, we are really grateful for what she's done!”
About: I have been house/pet sitting for a few years now. But aside from that I have a dog and cat of my own! I love hanging out with animals and giving them love and affection. I have loved animals since I was little and have helped take care of my pets since elementary school! I would love to show your animals some love while your away, letting them know they are safe! I am currently unemployed and have a bunch of free time to engage with your animals! I want to include taking care of loving animals into my weekly and/or daily routine! I will walk your dog, play fetch, snuggle and give lots of tummy rubs! I know that your pet will be most comfortable in their safe, familiar environment and want to make sure that your pet is happy!
“Ryland took EXCELLENT care of our two cats while we were out of town. He sent daily photos and updates and also helped to handle other things around the home while we were away. We will definitely recommend and rebook next time we are out of town!”
About: With a wealth of experience from owning dogs and cats my whole life and walking/pet-sitting for the past 15 years for dogs of all sizes and demeanors, at the end of the day I just love hanging out with animals! The goal is always to provide loving and informed pet care while making it a fun time for everyone involved :) I’m all for providing care that fits your pet’s specific needs and personality! Specific experience with training puppies and caring for senior dogs in my own home. I work part time remotely with a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of requests! Most days I’m flexible and open with any timing. For services in your home: I'm very respectful and aware of the space and your pet’s needs - never forgetting to shower your pet with love and attention! For services in my home: Your pet will be part of the family and closely looked after while they’re with me. They’ll have comfortable places to rest and hangout inside as well as a fenced yard to use and play in. I have one very sweet dog for them to hang out with too!
“Thank you so much Natasha for a last minute drop in. I know he is in good hands when you visit. Your instincts with him are always spot on! Thanks again for another great visit.”
About: **I do have base access!** I grew up with cats, dogs, hermit crabs, and even mice. 🐭 I work part-time, so I have a lot of flexibility. Know that I have a cat of my own, Bo (8 years), but he does great with other pets. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and lots of time to care for your furry baby! I’m able to provide plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and check-ins throughout the day, so your pet won’t be left feeling lonely while you’re away. I live in a spacious three-bedroom apartment with plenty of safe space for your kitty to explore and get comfortable. For new visitors, I reserve my laundry room/guest bathroom as their own quiet space so they can decompress and adjust to their new environment at their own pace. Once they’re comfortable, there’s a long hallway that’s perfect for zoomies and plenty of room to explore! I also have a third-floor balcony that my own cat absolutely loves. He spends hours watching the hummingbirds fly up to visit him. 🐦 Any visiting kitties will always be closely supervised if they spend time on the balcony with me. I know every cat adjusts differently, so I’m happy to give them as much space, attention, or company as they need to feel safe and at home. 🐱
“Izzy is always amazing with our pets. She is easy going and communicative and always sends lots of pictures of her drop ins. She consistently spends over 30 minutes with our cats and is great! We’ve used her for about 8 months now for week long and weekend trips.”
“Went above and beyond! So very thankful for Lisa’s help with my animals. I had a cat and rabbit and she took excellent care of both, even cleaned their cage areas and gave them lots of love and pictures!”
“Kyrna was great with my pup! She followed instructions well and was flexible with my adjustments, and I could tell my girl was happy from their time together. I hope to use her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets and truly can’t imagine life without them! I currently have a 12-year-old Frenchton who I’ve had since she was just 3 months old, as well as two cats. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I work from home a couple of days a week and have a fairly flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding Friday through Wednesday and can accommodate drop-in visits any day of the week. As a longtime pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any care instructions you provide, and I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you can feel confident they’re happy and comfortable. In my home, pets will be treated like part of the family and given plenty of attention, affection, and a safe, comfortable place to relax.
“Hannah was great, she took good care of our kitty while we were out of town. She was communicative and sent photos every day. Would definitely have her again.”
“Karen was great! She was amazing with our cats...but the icing on the cake was how clean and organized things were when we got home. We rushed out of the house and weren't exactly tidy. Karen got us straightened out. Great care for the fur babies and great care for our home. Thank you so much!!!”

Kim has become our go-to sitter. She has taken care of our cat multiple times now and it gives us such peace of mind knowing Marley is in good hands. Kim is not only reliable but flexible. Our plans changed from leaving in a month to leaving in just a couple of days, over a holiday weekend no less, and she was able to accommodate our last minute changes. We couldn't be happier and will continue to book with her in the future.
Sarah, as always, is amazing. I trust her to care for and love my critters like her own. My geriatric kitty cat hauls her old bones out of her heated cat bed to climb down the stairs and greet Sarah. I've seen her do it, and she doesn't even get herself up to greet ME! She's particular and crotchety as all hell, but she loves Sarah. Honestly, there's no greater evidence that somebody is good people as when an old calico gives her stamp of approval consistently. Neko thinks a visit from Auntie Sarah is the best thing. Only just slightly less so then a Churu, IYKYK!!

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.

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 Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
