“Stacey is a wonderful sitter and I will gladly rebook with her! She helped us by coming over for visits during the day for our dog. She's super reliable and her updates have been awesome. Since moving, our dog's social life has narrowed, so when we discussed her kids coming with her on visits, I was so happy with that; kid energy is good energy. Thanks Stacey for being such a kind and caring sitter for Morty!”
“I'm so happy we found Andrea! My dog is always good with new people but rarely makes a new BFF upon first meeting like he did with Andrea, the dog whisperer. When I mention that Andrea's coming over, I've gotta watch out for that helicopter-butt-whip-tail. Pretty sure our boy may actually prefer Andrea to us at this point 🤣 She's just so GOOD with our dog Morty, a pit mix, who while is very sweet, could appear intimidating...but not to Andrea! And he's been noticeably happier since Auntie Andrea came onto the scene. She's also super communicative, very reliable, and as a person, an absolute pleasure. I trust Andrea completely and will happily recommend her to anyone looking for dog/pet care from someone that legitimately cares for and loves your pet(s) like their own. She's the absolute best!”
“Jocelyn is our go-to person when we need someone to care for our 2 cats! She always shows up on time, gives the cats lots of love, and provides good updates during the visits!”
“Highly recommend Autumn! She truly cares deeply about animals. I had peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands— she even brought him a Christmas treat and toy which he loved!”
“Zack was amazing with my cat! This was my first time using Rover, and he went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable with the process. He was extremely communicative while I was away and kept me informed about everything going on with Phileas. The daily photos were such a bonus and really put my mind at ease.”
About: Hi! I’m a part-time Speech-Language Pathologist, mom to an animal-loving son (school age), and lifelong pet lover with over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets and those with complex medical needs. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, shots for diabetic dogs, monitoring pets with chronic health conditions, following detailed care routines, and recognizing when something doesn’t seem quite right. I understand how important consistency and attention to detail are, especially for pets who need a little extra care. As both a healthcare professional and pet owner, I’m dependable, patient, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, snuggles on the couch, or simply having a calm, reassuring presence, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how difficult it can be to leave your furry family members, and I’ll care for them with the same compassion and attention I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! As a part time SLP I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, day or evening drop ins or stay overs as needed! I have photos of my family (both furry and human) but only myself will be providing care for your pets. I have 4 dogs and large fenced in yard at my home in Grove city, so cannot provide care in our home as it is already a full house! However I am happily available to come to your home and spend time with your animal in their most familiar environment. I have had 11 dogs and 3 cats over the course of my adult life and have loads of experience with special needs animals, medication administration, injectable/diabetic animal treatment, seniors, special diet, allergies, you name it! I can also help with any plant care, fish feeding/cleaning or other household management tasks as needed.
About: I have had animals since I was 6 and I take care of my animals and my friends and family! I would love to spend time with your furry friends! Currently I am just looking for jobs but in the meantime I am trying to earn money for payments I need and care for my animals! I always have a phone on me so if I need to contact someone or I need contacted that will never be an issue and I am never late and will always be there for your furry friends!
About: I’ve been walking with another app, and I absolutely love it! I have a few regular clients I see, but I would love to add a few more fur babies to my daily agenda :) I’m currently saving for my wedding, and I’m a stay at home mom, so every dollar is greatly appreciated! :) I promise your babies are in great hands. I’m currently a stay at home, with more than enough time on my hands! Honestly taking care of the fur babies brings me so much joy, while I can still enjoy the freedoms of not having a “9-5” job. I’m very thankful for each and every opportunity’ The most safe!!! I’m a mom and I have eyes like a hawk! They are in great hands. I truly take a lot of pride in the work that I do, and I know each and every fur baby is irreplaceable and I treat them as such :)
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals since I could remember. Been around Great Danes to yorkies and love them all. I also have a cat and dog of my own both I’ve rescue and adore. I’ve also trained my dog, I’ve had her since she was 7 months old. I train with positive attitude and treats. I was relied on by family and friends to watch, walk and feed their pets. Occasionally would do some basic training to help keep up and of course cuddles. My pets are friendly with other animals, my dog gets excited when she gets to meet new friends and then goes about her business. I also have a crate for my dog if anything. I try to give the visiting pup a chance to sniff around first and get warmed up before I let my dog meet her. Allows both dogs to calm down and be relax by then.
“Mickeala Was so amazing with both my cats. One being a complete curious introverted cat and the other being a clingy curious extrovert. I was worried about them with dogs as they’ve never been exposed but her experience and professionalism got them acclimated so well! She was thorough and sent tons of videos and pictures which clearly showed how comfortable they truly were. They were completely themselves as if they were at home! She was very flexible with our schedule which so happened to be all over the place which required several stay extensions and easily worked with and accommodated us. I will absolutely be using her for all of our pet care needs!”
“Kiela was lovely to have housesit for our two cats! They were happy and healthy when we returned and she took great care of them. She sent update photos, even one with our kitten tucked into bed. Your pets are in great hands!”
About: I have taken care of a Chihuahua and a golden retriever for years. the Chihuahua for 4 years and the golden retriever for 3 years. I am available for pet services in mix with my school schedule since I am a full time college student. I have free time usually in the evenings and would love to spend it with lovely fur babies. I prefer taking care of pets In the owners home, I live on campus housing so while there is quite a lot of opportunity for outside space and time I do not have a fenced off area. in the owners home I stick to their schedule if provided for feedings, bathroom breaks, etc. My space is smoke-free.
“Autumn watched my cat for the weekend and truly took care of her as well as I do. Autumn was kind and respectful of my home the entire weekend. She went above and beyond with care and transparency, such as letting me know when my cat was not drinking as much water so we could come up with solutions together. I would highly recommend Autumn to anyone and everyone looking for a pet sitter who will treat your animal like her own.”
About: I've been a dog owner and animal lover my entire life, giving me firsthand experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities.

I treat every pet as if they were my own and am committed to ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits well into my current schedule. I work a fulltime professional position during the weekdays, which allows me to provide pet care services during evenings, weekends, and select weekdays depending on the pet's needs. I'm organized, reliable, and committed to ensuring pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. We live in a community with walking paths and a couple of ponds that we enjoy walking to with our pups. I will be happy to walk yours through the neighborhood as well. As a lifelong dog owner and current pug and cat parent, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as a member of my own family.

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.
