“Alexandra truly went above and beyond for our first sit. Attentive, thoughtful, and prompt. Kida was her normal, happy self when I arrived back from a 5 day trip - all down to Alexandra’s amazing care!”
“Katherine was great with my cats! I have two elderly cats who are finicky in their tastes and not extremely friendly (both were rescue feral cats). I had asked Katherine to come in twice a day to feed the cats and place their pills in the food. She had met the cats and was patient with them, and after a few days she was actually able to pet them--almost unheard of! I really enjoyed seeing the daily photos of the cats, so thank you, Katherine.”
“This is the second time we’ve used JR and like the first, we felt our kitties were well cared for and we loved getting the pics! Highly recommend JR if you’re looking for someone dependable who clearly cares for animals.”
“Jackie is so sweet with Frankie, my cat. We had a nice little meet and greet and Jackie even brought her a toy during her visit. She's kind, and knowledgeable about cats. Will absolutely rebook :)”
“We were very pleased with Rose's care for Nina. She was diligent in providing information and pics on Nina. We will definitely use her services again and will recommend to others. Thank you.”
“Victoria went above and beyond to take care of our kitty—over the holiday season and regardless of a blizzard that made travel difficult, she showed up! The updates and photos were so appreciated and thank you for bringing in our packages and deliveries too. Highly recommend and will book with her again!”
About: I am an animal lover and have ample experience sitting for cats and dogs. While I have a cat of my own, I love dogs and taking care of them as well. I am currently working a part-time remote job, so I am able to check in on pets whenever needed throughout the day. I am also happy to hang out with them while I work if they tend to get lonely throughout the day! I have a cat at home who is anxious and does not get along with other pets, so while I can’t offer boarding at my own house, I am committed to giving your pets the best care possible from the comfort of their own home environment.
“Joe is the best! Before my kitty met him, it was very difficult to leave town because I couldn't find someone she liked and who I trusted. Joe is kind, attentive, and a great communicator. He knows how to play with a cat, which is an art form. I am so happy that I can leave town again without worry.”
“Maggie is wonderful and professional. As soon as I met her I knew my cat would be in good hands. She paid close attention to my cat's care details and needs. She went above and beyond in making sure my cat was entertained and cared for while I was gone and ensured that I would return home to a happy, healthy cat! She sent daily updates with pictures that I looked forward to receiving every day. I would highly recommend her services, and will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Barbara is a cat whisperer and befriended my shy cat on her very first visit! She is reliable and communicative and I will definitely seek our her services again. Thank you Barbara!”
“Shelby took great care of our kitten while we were away. She’s so sweet and you can really tell how much she loves pets. We didn’t worry about our baby the whole time because we knew she was in good hands.”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful! My 11 year old cat was snuggling with her when she visited. Emily took great care of my baby and sent me photos and videos of her when I was traveling. I highly recommend Emily and will definitely reach out to her next time we go away!”
“Bridget went above and beyond to take care of our cat while we were away on a trip. Communication with Bridget was great and we were able to trust that our cat was in great hands. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I've cared for many cats and dogs, from pit bulls to terriers to English bulldogs. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and oral medication administration. I'm a patient and compassionate pet owner, and I promise to treat your fur babies with the same love and care I would my own. I'm also a graduate music student in case your pet might want to be serenaded by a french horn :) I'm a musician and graduate student at Bard. My schedule changes quite a bit, but I always have a good idea of what my schedule will look well in advance. In addition, I am generally free most mornings, and can often be flexible. I'm very happy to provide your dog(s) with walks, food, brushing, bathing, and medication. I love to play fetch with dogs, go on walks or hikes, visit dog parks, cuddle, practice tricks, or any other enriching activity. With cats, I love to cuddle, play, and practice or try new tricks with treats.
“Katherine was great! Grey and Bunny seemed to really like her, she was very communicative and sent pictures! Will definitely have her watch the critters again in the future!”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all kind and have always had the love and drive to ensure they have the best life and experiences possible. This love and compassion has led me to volunteering at the SPCA for a number of months, which turned into working there for over 4 years as both an animal care attendant and as a veterinary assistant. In my time there, I have been given the most incredible opportunity to both care for and rehouse hundreds of animals and have even acquired a couple of cats along the way. I am currently in the process of opening my own dog daycare to provide a very loving, caring environment for the dogs to spend their day while their pet parents are away.
“Katrina was in our home with our two big kittens/small cats for just under a week. My husband and I were a bit worried about leaving them with a sitter, since they are only three months old, but gwe came home to very happy kitties, and a well-cared for house. Communication was good while we were away; pictures arrived frequently. I would use Katrina again to watch our beloved cats!”

Vicki is such a special caregiver and was truly excellent with our two sweet senior kitties! She communicated so well and cared for the cats so brilliantly that they didn’t even come running when we got home! Absolutely will book Vicki again!! Could not recommend her more highly!
Isabella was an absolutely amazing sitter. She arrived on time every day, and sent wonderfully detailed notes about her visit. Rebel is a super shy girl and usually hides, but she came out for Isabella! Rebel must have sensed her good vibes! I felt so confident being away with Isabella taking care of my girl. I highly recommend!!
As always Alexandra goes above and beyond to be sure my cat is doing well, even offering to make a second visit one day to ensure she is eating ok. I have no worries during my absence: Alexandra's reports are detailed and helpful; photos are great. I already have her booked for a later trip. Thanks Alexandra!
Sarah is absolutely the best pet sitter I’ve ever had from Rover. She is a real professional. She communicates with me by phone if I call or by text and photos and videos. She knows just what I want to know about and let me know it. I feel very safe and secure from my darling kitty. Eleanor when she’s there. Thank you, Sarah.

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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , 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 Meet & Greet .

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.
