“Samantha was great and provided all support needed for our cats even during one of the worst storms in our town. She dilligently took care of them through the power outage going beyond and above. Highly recommend her services!!!!!”
“Sam is always on time, communicative, and ready to interact with Boss whether it is an attempted walk in this current heat, play time in the backyard, lick mat moments, or lots of pets & cuddles. We appreciate the love she gives Boss when we’re out for an extended period!”
“Katie took such great care of our dog while we were on vacation! We were nervous about him staying home alone for the week but she was extremely attentive, sent us tons of pictures and updates and made sure our pup was cared for. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Anthony is very punctual, polite and handles my dog with confidence and experience which makes me feel comfortable. My dog is large and can be a challenge but it does not intimidate Anthony. I would definitely recommend him.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, horses and more through pet sitting, dog walking, and volunteering as an Animal Therapy Assistant. I’ve worked with a variety of pets, maintained regular communication with owners, and always make sure animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m dependable, organized, and patient, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My experience as a nanny, camp coach, and small business owner has strengthened my responsibility, communication, and ability to handle different situations with confidence. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and love I would give my own. I’m a college student home for the summer, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I occasionally babysit and pet sit, but I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight care. I also care for my own dog, Lola, every day, so I’m used to maintaining a consistent routine and making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and affection they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully to help them feel secure while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll provide plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals, and updates so you can have peace of mind. I treat every pet with the same love and care that I give my own dog, Lola.
About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal
“Alissa was awesome! I needed someone very last minute and she was very responsive and jumped on the request right away. She spent time with my dog and made us all feel comfortable.”
About: I have been responsible for the care of cats and dogs inside and outside of my home since the age of two. I trained my family dog from eight weeks old, and have experience managing aggressive behavior. I am familiar with cats, having cared for them from kitten age to the end of their lives. When granted the responsibility to look after others pets, I show up with the utmost respect and care that I would want for my very own. I am a full time college student home for summer. I chose to spend this summer focusing on my summer coursework. With that completed, I have plenty of free time to care for your pets needs. I babysit as well. I am highly capable of whatever your needs may be; feeding, bathing, walking, keeping up with your training schedule. I have reliable transportation and am available to visit your pet(s) multiple times in a day in order to meet their physiological needs as well as engage with them in activity and play. I am also available to sit in-house.
“Xiomara was amazing and so reliable! I was nervous leaving my cat home alone but she made it easy to relax and enjoy my vacation! She is wonderful and took great care of my cat and I would definitely recommend her for your pet needs! Thank you Xiomara <3”
“V was fantastic. She came over to meet our two dogs before our scheduled visit and both dogs immediately loved her. It’s clear she’s a dog lover! We will absolutely be reaching out again in the future”
About: My love for animals has been a defining part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started my pet-care journey at just 10 years old, looking after my neighbors' dogs and building a foundation of trust within my local community. Over the years, that childhood passion evolved into professional expertise. For the past four years, I have worked as a seasonal dog handler at my local animal inn. This professional background has equipped me to handle everything from standard pet sitting to complex canine behaviors and specialized medical needs. A core part of my training includes an extensive understanding of canine body language. I am highly skilled at reading subtle signs of stress, fear, or discomfort, allowing me to intervene before a dog becomes overly anxious or potentially aggressive. I use this knowledge every single day to ensure that walks and play sessions remain entirely safe and low-stress. I am incredibly comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and strengths. I have hands-on experience utilizing a variety of specialized walking gear safely and correctly, including martingale collars, gentle leaders, and various types of harnesses. Whether your dog is a puller or needs a specific setup for safety, I know how to manage them on a leash. I have worked with an incredibly diverse range of breeds, from tiny pugs to giant Irish wolfhounds. Through my professional training, I have successfully managed and de-escalated challenging behaviors, including: - Food aggression and resource guarding - Fence fighting and dog-to-dog aggression - People-selective behaviors and high-anxiety pets Beyond behavioral management, I am highly experienced in handling special medical accommodations. I have safely cared for dogs managing a variety of health issues, including blindness, severe arthritis, infectious illnesses, and pets requiring strict medication schedules. I am also completely unfazed by the less-glamorous parts of pet care. I am always prompt, thorough, and sanitary when it comes to cleaning up vomit, poop, or any unexpected accidents inside the house. Additionally, I have extensive experience doing in-home drop-ins and overnights through a professional service similar to Rover. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect. You can look forward to meticulous attention to detail: I always ensure the home is left exactly as I entered it, and I have a strict double-check protocol to ensure all doors and entryways are completely locked and secured before I leave. Whether your pet needs high-energy play, strict behavior management, gentle senior care, or just a safe and secure environment while you are away, I am dedicated to providing the highest standard of professional care! I'm currently working as a lab technician from Monday to Wednesday, so I'll be able to take care of your pet after 5:30 pm! From Thursday to Saturday, I work a part-time job, so my hours can vary! However, I can be flexible, and as long as I'm notified in advance, I can figure out accommodations to take care of your pet! My Sundays are always free to take care of your fur baby. I like to make sure the pet is as comfortable as they can be, and I'm good at following directions. If you are currently crate training or getting personal training for your animal, I will ensure that I'm following your directions to ensure that your pet's training is reinforced. I always ensure that your house is properly secured when entering and exiting the home.
“Avery took wonderful care of our two super-senior cats. The peace of mind knowing we didn't have to worry was wonderful. Avery also took photos each day and kept in touch through the app. I do highly recommend Avery to take good care of your pets! Thank you 😁”
“Paola is so kind and compassionate. She writes amazing notes to us, letting us know how are cats are doing. She is excellent at communication and we love her pictures of our cats”
“Sara was very communicative and accommodating. I requested late feedings and had a a new security system that she navigated seamlessly. She was in touch every step of the way and I felt my fur baby was well taken care of. Would definitely use again!”
About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.
“Chloe is a rare find. She is incredibly thorough and buttoned up- beyond organized with a binder of notes and questions upon meeting you and your pet. She’s exceptionally responsive to check in requests and always goes above and beyond. I came home last night to my mail brought in and she even brought our recycle bin up from the curb. I highly recommend her! So does Oliver ;)”
“Jordyn did a great job today with Dash. She was on time and immediately started playing with our puppy. Dash really took to her which put us at ease. We felt he was in good hands. Great job!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Long Hill
Katie checked in on my cat once a day and sent messages and Rover cards a the end of each check in. She cleaned bowls and litter each day and stayed with my kitty feeding her in small increments for a half hour each day I was away. She kept my place clean and played music for my cat to keep her as calm as she could. My kitty was nervous and scared but Katie managed to make her feel cozy by the then of each visit. Next time I’m away I will hope to book Katie again and I highly recommend her!
Svetlana was great! She sent photos every time she went to visit Molly. The real compliment is that Molly let Svetlana pet her and hold her, which my cat doesn't usually do. When I looked up Svetlana originally and spoke with her, I was impressed with her experience and her many strong reviews. Clearly it was a smart choice - both Molly and I are happy and appreciate Svetlana's caring.
Leigh is our go-to sitter. She takes wonderful care of our fur babies every time, leaves lots of pictures and helpful notes each day, and follows medication instructions for our cat with a thyroid condition to the letter. Leaving our pets in her care gives us complete peace of mind. We are grateful to have found her!
Sheila took wonderful care of our cats for a little over two weeks, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She is incredibly meticulous, genuinely loves animals, and went above and beyond what was required to make sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She also kept an eye on our home and alerted us to a water leak in time, which we truly appreciated. We felt completely at ease knowing both our cats and our home were in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommended.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
