“Malia took great care of my cats! She followed care instructions accordingly and provided prompt communication with daily updates (including plenty of photos and videos). I felt reassured knowing my cats felt safe and happy with her.”
“Dominique was a great sitter for our two cats and we would not hesitate to have her drop in on them again. Even our shy cat would come out of his hiding spots when she arrived which he usually never does for any stranger. From our first initial meeting we felt very comfortable with her, and she was easy to reach throughout. Her updates were helpful and she gave good report cards and a few photos for each visit. We came home to a clean litter boxes and two happy cats, so we’re really glad we found Dominique.”
“Chelsea was fantastic! She arrived right on time and took care of everything I asked for — my cats were happy, well-fed, and clearly enjoyed her company. She's incredibly patient and gentle with them, and I could tell they really liked her. I felt completely at ease leaving them in her care. Highly recommend Chelsea to any cat parent!”
“Daniele was the best!!! She sent me so many photos of my fur baby and all the things I kindly asked if she could do. I feel reassured knowing she was taken care of by her!”
“WOW! Saige has been such a good sitter for my cat while I was gone for 3 days. She was so sweet and kind. My cat warmed up to her really well. She also took so many pictures to update me, came on time, and followed any instructions I had specific for my cat. HIGHLY RECOMMEND”
“Anel was a wonderful sitter! She sent me daily updates and made sure my kitties got all they needed and more! I was gone for 6 days so it was great to have someone so attentive look after my babies!”
“Crystal was the sweetest and the most caring cat sitter for my baby! She was super attentive to all of our instructions, was accommodating in doing a very last minute meet-and-greet, was communicative throughout the visits, and she even took out the trash from his dirty litter for us (which was very nice to come home to after a trip) ❤️ our cat loved getting attention from her and i can tell she is truly an animal lover. Highly recommend!!”
“Sofia really exceeded our expectations while looking after our two cats. She was punctual when we scheduled our key drop-off and initial greet with the cats, who immediately warmed up to her. She followed all of our care instructions to the letter and we could tell they were well cared for in our absence and relaxed upon our return. Not only that, but there was a heat wave while we were away and our AC unit was malfunctioning at the time, leading to some high temperatures inside. Sofia found creative ways to help mitigate the heat, adding ice cubes to the water dishes and even moving fans around to help air flow through the unit when it cooled off in the evenings. It really helped reassure us during our travels and was undoubtedly appreciated most of all by our cats. We are grateful for her thoughtful assistance and would highly recommend her help to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Jessica took care of our cat Louie, and she was great like always! She also helped bring on our meal delivery and close some of our blinds when we requested. Our go-to Rover when we’re away!”
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for animals including dogs, cats, and farm animals. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors, and I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and temperament. I also have firsthand experience caring for young puppies after my own dog had a litter, which taught me how much attention, patience, and care younger animals can require. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet seriously. I pay close attention to each animals behavior and wellbeing, follow the owners care instructions, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while their pet is in my care. I’m currently a part-time student, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available for house sitting Friday–Sunday and for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday–Thursday. My hours may vary depending on the day, but I’ll always make sure I can accommodate your pet’s needs and routine before accepting a booking. For house sitting, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any care instructions you provide to help them stay comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, playtime and attention, and a clean and safe environment. I’ll also respect your home and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are properly secured. For dog walks, I’ll keep your dog safely leashed and pay close attention to our surroundings throughout the walk. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding their usual route, behavior around other dogs or people, and anything else I should be aware of to keep them safe and comfortable. For drop-in visits, I’ll check on your pet and take care of their needs according to your instructions, including feeding, refreshing their water, potty breaks, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and playtime. I’ll also keep you updated on how your pet is doing so you can have peace of mind while they’re in my care.
“Couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Jenny sent us pictures of our cat during play time, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Hope to see her again!”
“Jade was an amazing cat sitter! I needed someone to watch my cat last minute, and Jade was very responsive and answered all my questions in a timely manner. I also appreciated how many updates (pictures/videos) I received of my cat during her time with Jade. Highly recommend!”
About: Safety first so I double checked my apartment for any hazardous items, edges, or liquids that could possibly endanger any pet! I also love taking lots of pictures with the dogs in my care. Staying active is a priority of mine so it makes it a lot more fun when I can have an active or playful pet around! I ride a skate board so it's easy for me to get around town quickly for in home visits to your pets. Spacious room is ideal for pets with their own beds or toys. I live alone so you can sure all my attention will be focused on the safety and care of your furry friends! Your pet will have my full attention as I don’t work right now I only focus on caring for pets. I also foster dogs here and there. I have plenty experience with all types of dogs and I can easily pick up on whatever your pets needs are.I always will make sure to keep you informed on our daily activities. I currently only go to school online so I will dedicate all of my time to being with the dogs in my care which makes it easier for me to keep track of any special needs your pet may need like medication or strict bathroom breaks things like that. I aim to keep the way that I care for and treat the dogs the same way that they would be treated at home so that they dont develop any inappropriate habits while they are away from home so if they aren't allowed on furniture at home ill be sure to keep them off furniture at my home so that they can stay well trained.
“Julia did a wonderful job house sitting to take care of our two cats. She was communicative and is a great writer, which made her updates fun to read -- she also brought along some toys for our kitties to try out, which was a really sweet touch. We returned to a cared for home and two happy cats, which is exactly what we were hoping for. I would definitely book Julia again and strongly recommend her!”
“amazing! on such short notice, my pup, Amber fell in love with both of them and their pup, Buttercup. :) the dogs immediately played and I too gained trust and felt comfortable leaving my Amber with them for the weekend. I highly recommend....”

Dani has been our go-to pet-sitter for years! She’s very thoughtful and takes the time to get to know your pet and their needs and routine, and I also appreciate how flexible she is! Milo is always well taken care of when we return and we have Dani to thank for that! Definitely recommend. :)
Eric was wonderful! He was communicative and flexible, while being responsible and maintaining all of his commitments. I had to end my trip and return home early due to an illness, and Eric was very understanding. He left my home in the condition that I had requested and my cat seems happy and healthy.
Thank you Sarah for taking care of my baby, being respectful to my home, and giving me plenty of updates. I appreciate you so much as I had lots of anxiety being away from my girl for the first time (usually I have family watch her on trips). Hope you can watch her the next time I need help. Thanks again and take care!
Imogen is the best carer ever for our cat, Mina! She was so professional, helpful, and communicative while we were away on vacation and she was dropping in to care for Mina, who was on medication. Any nerves I had about leaving our girl while she was on temporary meds were completely put at ease by Imogen’s excellent care. We felt so reassured knowing Mina was in such good hands and happy to see her each day!

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.

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 .
