“Grateful to Tabitha for taking care of Luna and Oliver while we were out of town! Luna was happy for the company and both cats were well taken care of during the visit.”
“Susan is our go to. She’s basically our pets’ god mother 🤣. Not only is she a phenomenal pet sitter with cute pics and updates.. But her knowledge of animal behavior is impeccable. 100/10 recommend her to pet sit as well as training sessions. She’s been with us since we first brought our puppy home and has made such a positive impact on her behavior. I always tell my friends/family about her!❤️”
“James was fantastic, very communicative in all of his visits, especially related to a couple specific concerns we had with our cats. Our most picky cat even warmed up to him! Would definitely book again.”
“Jocelyn took great care of our cats for a long weekend. She sent updates about what they were doing, played with them each day, and always made sure to clean the litter boxes. We also loved that we got plenty of pictures after each visit!”
“Sylvia did a wonderful job again. The kitties love her. I think she must bathe in catnip lol. They really have fun with her. She takes great pics and leaves my home in great shape. I always try to book with her when I'm out of town.”
“Completely enjoyed having Maria drop in and help my senior cats Ginger and Stella. House was neat and both cats were calm and satisfied when I got back. Maria also gave some detailed reviews with each visit which was very reassuring. We’ll be happy to have her back next trip!”
“Amanda was fantastic! She was very communicative throughout our trip and sent great Rover Cards with detailed updates and photos. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our cats and took a lot of pride in making sure they were happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Amanda and would happily book with her again!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner most of my life and have taken care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I am the one they always rely on to care for there’s pets and I hope to do the same for you. I’m currently looking for a job, so I will have lots of free time to care for your pets, and with flexible scheduling to what days you might need. Caring for pets at the client’s home I would make sure to ask where they keep the food, treats, toys for the pets, and cleaning supplies just in case if they make an accident by chance.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young, I love dogs. I enjoy meeting their different personality traits and getting to know them. Dogs make my heart melt & my own dog genuinely gets me up every morning. I will take care of your dogs as though they are my own because i know the fear that comes associated since I’ve kept my dog with others myself. I have a pitbull as well as 2 cats so I love any size, any attitude, any pet. They’re all perfect lovable creatures, no matter the personality type & I really enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them or even just laying with them and cuddling. It’s seratonin for us both! My pets are my best friends and I would like to make your pets the same way. The excitement of seeing my pet friends every day is such a blessing I’m grateful to experience. I have tons of love & affection to give (or none at all, if they prefer) & I’m excited to share it with your pets I’m currently in school for social work so I have a lot of extra time on my hands, I love filling it with our furry friends. I understand all methods of caretaking when it comes to our pets. If your dog is a jumper, I’ll always watch and make sure they don’t jump over any fences. I am somewhat of a hover parent myself & I keep such an eye on my pets, they’ve never had an accident resulting in a vet visit. I also understand sensitive stomachs & our babies that are dying to eat everything, itching for a vet appt but not on my watch. I multitask well so your pet will never go unnoticed.
“I had a great experience with my Rover sitter! She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, followed all of my instructions carefully, and took wonderful care of my kitties. She was friendly, reliable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I truly appreciated her updates and attention to detail. I look forward to booking with her again for my next getaway and would definitely recommend her to others looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
About: I love spending time with dogs and making sure they receive the attention, care, and affection they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy creating a comfortable and positive experience for every pup. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine. I take the time to learn what makes each pet comfortable so I can provide care that works best for them. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet-care needs throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work with pet owners to coordinate drop-offs, pick-ups, and care arrangements that fit their schedules. Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway, an extended vacation, or need someone to look after your pets during the week, I do my best to provide dependable and attentive care. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, their safety, comfort, and routine are my priorities. For boarding, I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming home environment where pets can relax and receive plenty of attention. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and routines to help make their stay as comfortable as possible. Since I have two cats of my own, I also take introductions and appropriate separation into consideration. For house sitting, I respect your home while maintaining your pet’s familiar routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I believe communication is just as important as good pet care, so I make sure owners feel informed and comfortable while they’re away.
About: In addition to being a lifelong cat owner, I have fostered hundreds of cats and kittens for the MD SPCA. This means I have given hundreds of medications, thousands of pets, and cleaned tens of thousands of litter boxes - and loved every minute of it! I am very comfortable feeding, caring for, playing with, and cleaning up after cats and kittens, and I am excited to meet yours! As a pet parent myself I know how much I worry about my home and pets while I am away, and how important a good pet sitter is to ensuring that we are all comfortable during that time. I look forward to providing you and your pet with the same peace of mind I look for when I am away. I work part-time in a remote environment, so I have a high degree of control over my schedule and can meet your pets' needs in whatever way you would prefer. I have a dedicated foster space in my own home. When in others' homes, I have a strong focus on hygiene, and work to understand the rules, routines, and expectations of each home so that both people and pets feel most comfortable with me being there. I will ask questions if I need to and document my actions each visit to ensure that the highest quality care is given.
About: I’ve recently started pet sitting for friends and family and found it very rewarding. At home I am use to looking after my dog Remy who is an 90 pound poodle mix along with my cat Mia. They both are a handful but they are members of the family that have prepared me for looking after others. I am currently attending graduate school and am looking to start work near my home. I am always looking for opportunities to pay my way while helping others. I will work to make time in my schedule to accommodate yours! I always try and be friendly and patient. At home my dog Remy takes medication nightly while also having quiet the personality. His boisterous nature can be hard to rein in but when he is given his time he settles.
“Jun was amazing and took great care of our old sick cat while we were out of town for almost two weeks. We loved the cute photos and will absolutely ask Jun for help again. Highly recommended!”
“Rebeccah was excellent! She asked really great questions with our meet and greet to ensure she understood Phoebe’s needs and wants. The Rover cards were detailed and gave me comfort to know she was in good hands. Will definitely book with Rebeccah in the future.”
About: I am new to pet sitting on this platform, but not new to caretaking for pets. I specialize in senior pet care, especially cats with CKD. I am very experienced in giving medications orally or injection, administering subq fluids and lots of extra cuddles are very important! My husband and I enjoy traveling, but found it very hard to find a pet sitter that was well versed in caring for senior cats, especially cats with kidney disease. I will care for your babies as I would my own. They depend on us for safety and I do not take that lightly. I will treat them with respect and kindness because thats how I would want my babies to be treated while I’m away. Our pets are nervous enough while we’re away, so whatever I can do to make their lives a little less stressful, I will certainly do!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a proud cat parent to my own cat, I know how much peace of mind matters when you have to leave your furry family members behind. While I'm new to the Rover platform, pet care is second nature to me—back in college, I regularly helped my classmates with pet sitting, looking after both dogs and cats. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs some gentle loving attention, I treat every pet with the exact same care and devotion I give my own. Because I work remotely and part-time from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I am basically free and can easily find time for your pet any day or any time. Whether it's a mid-day walk or constant companionship, we can easily figure out a routine that works best for you and your pet! Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Whether I am dropping in for pet sitting or taking your dog out for an engaging walk, I treat every pet with the utmost care and respect. As an experienced cat owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to respect an animal's boundaries, safety needs, and home environment. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable updates, and treating your home and pets like my own.
“Brianna is an amazing Catsitter! Not only did my cats really love her but she was amazing at sending updates and being attentive towards them and their needs! Will definitely be booking her again for my future cat sitting needs!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Linthicum Heights
Bri was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! She asked good questions and took notes when we met initially and was excited to meet the cats. I have a gregarious kitty and a very shy kitty and I was a little worried about leaving him with a stranger, but Bri met him were he was and earned his trust to where he was coming out to the common areas instead of hiding. She even helped feed our stray cat! Can't praise her highly enough. Thank you so much!
Tabitha was great. We were leaving our kitties for the first time ever, and it was for over a week, so I was feeling pretty anxious. Tabitha put me at ease from our first meeting. She was communicative, timely, and did everything we needed. Very appreciative of her!

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 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.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
