“Excellent experience with Rhonda!! Our second time having her take great care of our kitties in our home! Highly recommend as a care giver who is very loving to animals and conscientious! Thank you Rhonda!!!!”
“Fantastic drop in dog sitter. Always on time for drop ins and provided great notes and feedback about how he was behaving, eating, going to the bathroom and interacting with her. She also provided some very helpful tips. Can't say enough good things about how she helped with my older and more challenging dog. Will definitely be relying on her for future drop in visits.”
“Tricia did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were away. She really took the time to get to know them, which meant a lot to us. She was dependable, attentive and sent regular updates and photos so we always knew how they were doing. It gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were gone and we would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes daily feeding routines, fresh water, walks and playtime, basic grooming, litter box and kennel cleaning, and giving lots of attention and affection. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets as well as seniors who need a calmer, more gentle approach. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special instructions to make sure they receive consistent, reliable care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, health, and well-being at all times. I work 7am–3pm most days, which gives me flexible afternoon and evening availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I plan my schedule carefully so pets receive attentive, unhurried care and consistent routines. When caring for pets in their own homes, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any house rules. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise or playtime, and lots of affection and attention. I treat every home with respect and keep things clean and secure. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners confidence that their home and pet are in good hands.
“Mary did a great job for me. Cats were well taken care of and the house was nice and well looked after while I was away. Mary had great communication with me and always kept me informed with when she was stopping by and status while there.”
“Kelsey did a wonderful job dropping in on our senior cat while we were away. She gave our cat the attention and love she needed and it was clear Kelsey genuinely cared for her. Kelsey shared lots of photos and updates to make sure we could relax on vacation knowing our cat was safe and comfortable. I highly recommend Kelsey for your Rover needs!”
“Nurra was wonderful with my two dogs! I made a last-minute request, and she was kind enough to accommodate it, which I really appreciated. She was professional, polite, and a great communicator throughout the drop-in visits. She even went the extra mile by taking the dogs for a walk. I felt comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend Nurra to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“We've hired Brit four times now to care for our senior cat while we're away. She's great with Kitty and very understanding of her limitations. And Kitty is always happy and calm when we return home. I strongly recommend Brit!”
“This was my first time using Patricia for cat drop-ins, and I felt completely at peace the whole time I was away. She understands cats and treats them with care. Her updates were the best I've received from any sitter: thorough, with great photos, and you can tell she isn't just checking boxes. She really pays attention and lets you know how your pets are doing. Don't hesitate. Book her!”
“WOW! Lindsey was amazing. More than amazing. Everything I could hope for in a sitter. Within 2 days she had my super shy girl sitting on her lap. This took my husband at least a year and a half to get to that point. She sent pictures showing the same shy girl playing with a wand without the other two cats butting in. They all loved her and from what I could tell, each kitty had equal play and loving. I came home to clean litter boxes, fresh water, happy cats, and a vacuumed house! She genuinely cared about my babies. I almost want to take trips just to have Lindsey come over and love on my cats ❣️”
About: Several years of dog sitting experience. Comfortable with walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. Timely, diligent feedings and care instructions followed accurately to ensure the best care. I’m available for boarding and drop ins during evenings and weekends. I am also available for extended drop ins. I have reliable transportation, so can travel further to do drop ins. I care for pets by giving them the attention that they need. I ensure that their needs are met and that they are safe, and comfortable. This includes maintaining feeding and walking schedules.
“I am very pleased with the service provided by Madalyne, She was punctual, and there were no last minute changes in the schedule. The slight change that made was agreed upon well before the sitting session started. It is my hope that Madalyne will be available for future sessions. As of now, she is my go-to person at Rover”
“He was wonderful! My boys loved him and he was able to figure out their medication routine without issue. Super professional and very responsive, I definitely recommend booking with him!”
“Thank you so much Jessica, Loki and Freya loved you stopping by everyday to take care of them as did I, it is so nice to have someone thats responsible and trustworthy to rely on while you're away, we appreciate you very much. Mandy 😁”
About: I have about one year of experience caring for dogs and have spent time looking after dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’m calm, patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs. I’m comfortable helping with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and keeping them company. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routine to make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work during the week, but I’m fully available on weekends and have plenty of time to give your cat the care and attention they need. I’m happy to work around their usual feeding, playtime, and care routine. I always make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and respected in their own space. I follow their usual feeding and litter box routines, keep their area clean, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and let them come to me at their own pace. I also make sure doors and windows are secure and follow any special instructions from their owner.
“Arden did a great job with our two cats! She also made sure to ask great questions about them and their routines before she was scheduled to care for them. We felt comfortable that they were in her care for the weekend and appreciated her communication throughout the process!”
About: I’m majoring in business and I own a long haired chihuahua. I’ve cared for neighbor’s and family’s dogs in the past by walking and dog sitting. I’m on a very flexible schedule, so most times during week days I will be able to walk your dog! I’m excited to take them on walks :) For dog walking, I like to make sure we walk in areas with sidewalks that are safe. I’d bring water to keep your dog hydrated, especially if it is warm out!
“Emily took perfect care of my kitties and did everything I asked. She gave me thorough updates and even cleaned up their messes. They don’t like strangers and they were out playing with her and trusting her to give treats during visits. I plan on booking her again! 🤗”
About: In my circle of family and friends, I’m known as the “resident pet sitter.” I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, cats, and everything in between. I’m comfortable administering medications (I give my own cat medicine daily!) and have experience helping anxious pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m very attentive to routines and always follow feeding schedules and instructions carefully. When I care for your pets, I treat them like my own and how I hope someone would treat my pets. I am patient and understanding and would love to get to know your furry friend’s quirks! Since I work from home, pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, whether that’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping them company. I enjoy building my day around making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific care requests. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while their owners are away. I also treat every home with respect and keep things clean and organized. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

Rhonda was absolutely the best. She made our cat, Leo feel safe and cared for while we were gone for two weeks. She kept us updated after each visit and sent pictures to show us how well he was cared for while she was there. Thanks again Rhonda! We will use you again in the future. Loved the pictures ❤️
This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so happy that I booked it with Chelsea, she did a fantastic job. I was nervous being away from them for the first time, but I was so impressed with the care Chelsea gave them, they looked so happy in the pictures playing with her. Thank you for taking such good care of Jaxx and Cheerio, that means the world to me.
We’ve had such a great experience with Elizabeth. She’s prompt, kind, and overall amazing to work with. Our senior cat needs medication, and she handles it so well. She provides updates and has given us so my relief knowing our cat is in great hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
Great experience working with Abigail! Even though we haven’t met in person yet, communication has been excellent.. very prompt, clear, and professional. She was easy to coordinate with and have made me feel confident and comfortable about my cats’ upcoming care.

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.

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.
