“Laura is a sweet and attentive person who is a pleasure to talk to. The pets all come to greet her when she comes over and she gives them lots of love. She goes above and beyond regarding what I needed and doesn’t rush. Thank you so much.”
“She was awesome!! You can tell Kaden had a fun time with her. She communicates well and takes the best photos. It’s such a good feeling knowing my dog is under good care when I can’t be there. Thank you!!!”
“Bronte took a last-minute booking to look after our cat Pacho, which we really appreciated. She had no issues handling his picky eating and daily routine. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We would recommend her without hesitation to other pet parents!”
“Kennedy was such a great sitter! I needed a last minute sitter and he was able to help me check in on my 13 year old pug all week. He gave her lots of love and provided updates. As a pet sitter myself, I 100% recommend Kennedy and his services. Reliable, friendly, and a true pet lover!”
About: Hi! My name is Alexa, I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals of many personalities and ages. I recently relocated to California and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I am happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight care, puppy care, and providing extra patience for senior dogs or pets who may feel anxious when their owners are away. I have a 2 year old fur baby of my own, Arlo; who's taught me how important routine, exercise, and affection are for a dog’s happiness and well-being. I’m always able to adjust to your pet's needs and personality. Whether they love long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I enjoy spending the majority of my time with animals and being active outdoors. I structure my schedule to allow plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure pets get the attention they need throughout the day. I am sure to keep their routine as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. I follow instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would give Arlo ❤️. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the pet’s environment and the home itself. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also keeping their surroundings clean and calm. I pay close attention to their behavior and energy levels to make sure they are happy and stress-free while you're away. Communication is also important to me, I like to provide updates and photos so you can feel reassured that your fur babies are doing well.
“Jennifer was amazing! Our puppy and cat loved her, she followed all of the instructions we asked her to, provided us with a detailed update and plenty of photos, and even went the extra mile on a couple things we did not ask her to do. We will definitely work with her again!!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of pet and house-sitting needs. I’m open to different schedules, including extended stays, overnight sitting, and last-minute bookings when available. My goal is to make things as convenient as possible for both you and your pets. I take safety, trust, and respect very seriously. I understand that when I’m caring for someone’s pet, I’m also being trusted with their home and personal belongings. I treat every household with the same care and respect I would expect for my own, making sure pets are safe and comfortable while keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I’m mindful of boundaries, follow the owner’s instructions, and always leave the home and belongings exactly as I found them.
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a longtime pet owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and temperaments. I previously cared for three dogs of my own and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and multi pet households. I’m comfortable caring for shy or anxious pets and always take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease. I can accommodate special feeding schedules, daily routines, and individual care needs to help maintain consistency while you’re away. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout their pet’s stay, so they always have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel right at home. I’m trusted with others animals. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout the day, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care from morning to night. Your pet won’t just be checked on, they’ll receive plenty of companionship, playtime, affection, and supervision. I’m able to accommodate special feeding schedules, medication routines, potty breaks, and individual care needs to help keep their routine as normal as possible. Whether your pet is staying for a day or an extended visit, my goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions before their stay so they feel as comfortable as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where pets are closely supervised and treated like family. I have access to a secure, fenced outdoor area within my apartment community for safe potty breaks and fresh air. I’m experienced caring for shy or anxious pets, as well as homes with multiple pets, and I always adapt my care to each animal’s unique needs. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and in caring hands.
“Jack is a great communicator and took excellent care of my pup! He accommodated my request on short notice, was prompt and I’d highly recommend him to anybody looking for pet care. I will definitely rebook him again.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 16 for friends, family, and online clients, and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m responsible, respectful, and very attentive to each pet’s routine and personality. I know trusting someone with your pet — and sometimes your home — is a big deal, so I always make communication and reliability a priority. I’m happy to send plenty of updates and photos, follow any instructions you leave, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether they love walks, playtime, or just hanging out, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m a college student with a pretty flexible schedule, and I have my own car, so getting back and forth for pet care is never an issue. I’m always willing to make the trip to make sure your pet gets the attention, walks, feeding, and care they need. I also work part-time, but my shifts are typically only 3–4 hours, so I’m never away for long periods of time. I’m great at planning around my classes and work schedule and making pet care a priority! Safety, Trust & Environment I always try to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection based on their personality! When I’m in a client’s home, I’m also very respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates and photos, and make sure you feel confident that both your pet and your home are being well taken care of!
“Raymond did the best job caring for my kitties when I was gone for a week! We were very specific with our instructions & he absolutely delivered. I know it’s not easy getting meds to one of my skittish babies but he did awesome. Truly went above & beyond. Thank you so much, Raymond!”
“Soleil was AMAZING, and I genuinely cannot recommend her enough! She took such wonderful care of Lemon while I was away at a conference, and I never had to worry for a second. She was reliable, communicative, incredibly sweet with Lemon, and just made the whole experience so easy. She also went so far above and beyond what I asked her to do. I came home and realized she had cleaned my cat’s litter box AND taken out the trash—neither of which was remotely part of our arrangement! It was such a thoughtful surprise after a long trip, and honestly just says so much about the kind of person she is. I came home to happy pets and a home that had clearly been really cared for, which is about the best feeling you can have after traveling. Soleil is kind, thoughtful, dependable, and an absolute gem. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to basically anyone who will listen. Lemon and I are officially huge Soleil fans!”
“We were so grateful to have Jennylyn take care of our cat while we were out of town. She responded to our messages promptly and kept us updated with regular photos and reports. Our cat can be quite sassy, mischievous, and not always friendliest, but Jennylyn was very patient and handled things wonderfully. We felt at easy knowing our cat was in great hands. We'd definitely book with Jennylyn again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and I have experience with sitting for my friends pets as well as pet sitting for all types of cats and dogs I am in school to help me get hired as a veterinary assistant. It is asynchronous and online so my schedule is completely open as of right now. I will care for clients pets in their home so that the pet may feel as if their owner never left. Getting details about schedules or small things that are important to know.
About: I have spent over 20 years caring for humans and am interested in expanding my caregiving to pets! I have experience with puppies and neighbors animals as a drop in sitter I work mostly remote so I have flexibility in my schedule to drop in to visit, walk, and play with your pets! I am used to caring for my own dog and do daily walks and games. I am used to dropping into neighbors homes to help with dogs and cats. I am able to feed, walk, play, and do some enrichment activities.
About: When I was born my family already had 2 cats and 2 dogs. Once they passed we got two more cats and 2 more dogs. Since then we’ve gotten a few more cats that were strays and needed a home. I love to care for pets because they’re always there when I need them. I work part-time so it is easy for me to find time to care for animals. It’s something I’m passionate about and I want to help out as much as I can. We have a pretty spacious backyard where our dogs can run around. We keep all of our cats inside due to losing a couple in the past to some tragic outside accidents.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Los Alamitos
Asmita was fantastic. Timely, communicative, and very flexible when some of my house and pet needs changed while I was gone. She sent videos and photos daily and provided photos to show tasks had been completed in real time. Would absolutely love to have Asmita again for future bookings! 10/10
Jennifer was awesome with her check-ins of my cat. I provided her instructions (she asked clarifying questions) and followed them consistently. It was a relief knowing my cat was looked after responsibly. I highly recommend Jennifer and would request and recommend her services.
Bronte was great and very understanding. My cats spent most of her visits hiding because she's new and they don't know her. But Malí eventually ventured out and decided Bronte was ok. Hopefully Malí will tell Felis and he'll come out of hiding next time. Thanks, Bronte!
OMG! I cannot even BEGIN to say how GRATEFUL I AM to have Jessica watch my furbabies! This is my 1st time using Rover & I wasn't worried for one MINUTE that they weren't in the BEST CARE! She made sure my guy got his insulin shots on TIME & even THOUGH the Princessa didn't HONOR Jessica with her presence, she was still so happy to see me when I got home & was no worse for wear! I would recommend her to anyone looking for caring, responsible person to take care of your precious babies, Jessica is it! You won't regret it!
I wanted to tip more but the app limited me? Brionna did a great job and she really helped out by picking up a few more days when I was stuck in Barbados airport with all flights canceled for 3days! Crazy East Coast weather! I recommend using her services as she is professional and thorough. Thank you Brionna!
We love Candy! Candy did great taking care of my kitten and my medically complicated rat. She was able to perform more complicated medical tasks for the rat without difficulty. My pets loved her and she went above and beyond, even stopping to check on my roof to make sure it wasn’t leaking during the rainstorm.
Whitney is the best! So sweet with the animals, and very communicative and sweet with us, too😄 We used her for drop-in kitty visits this time (we use dog walking as well), and will definitely use her again. Whitney makes traveling and being away from the animals very easy.

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.
