“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”
“I've only used Ciara as my Rover for my Pup and couldn't give a better review. Always sends multiple pictures of what Gracie is up to when she stops in. My dog always seems happy in the pictures and happy when I get home which is all I can ask for. She has also been very flexible when trips have gotten cut short or end up running long. Highly recommended!”
“I was so happy to be able to book Donai again. Second time’s a charm! I knew my cats were in great hands, and I always loved seeing the Rover reports and pictures while I was enjoying my trip. Thanks for your flexibility and your clear communication!”
“Billy was awesome. My cat was in good hands while I was away—never had to worry. Lots of updates. He stayed a little longer to make sure she was comfortable with him. I would book with him again in a heartbeat.”
“Eleanor always takes the best care of our cat while we are away! I always used to stress about who was taking care of him while I was gone and constantly worried about how he was doing. While she has been our pet sitter for the last couple vacations all my worries have been gone! She takes the best care of him and I could not recommend her more!”
“Tara always takes extra special care of our cat who is a bit needy! She always makes him feel so loved and we don’t have to worry about him one bit when we’re out of town and she’s taking care of him!”
“Bayley was awesome with drop in visits for our dog! She took great care of her, especially responding to her fear of storms, which were plentiful while we were gone. She also quickly accepted our request to extend services after our return flight was cancelled. Highly recommended!”
“Jenna saved the day on very short notice. She arrived right on time and my girls seemed to like her. This was only her first visit but she seems very reliable. I would definitely book with her again.”
About: What started off as a favor for a friend turned into a genuine love for all pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the guilt and sadness that comes with leaving your fur baby with a stranger, so it is my mission to make sure that the owner as well as the pet feel comfortable enough to put their trust in me. I am a student with a part time job. I have available time for any animal with any need. Evenings or even night walks are perfect. Boundaries are important, not only for the owner before the pet as well. That is always my top priority. As well as treating a pet as my own.
“Jen checked in on my four month old kitten while I was away for a few days. This was my first time leaving her on her own and Jen kept me constantly reassured! Thankyou so much!!”
“Emily is so kind and reliable! She always takes the best care of my cat when I’m out of town and I always know he’s in the best hands with her. She is very communicative and always spends so much time with him during her visits. Highly recommend her as always.”
“Missy was wonderful! This was my first Rover experience and I was very nervous with my cats needing medication twice daily but Missy was on time and great with communicating. I really appreciated the cute pictures she sent with each visit and I would definitely schedule with her again!”
“She did go above and beyond at doing drop in with my dog it was her first time I left her with someone she dint know and my dog was not happy the first few drops she did but did keep coming back till my dog decided to warm up to her at least enough to go on a walk”
“Absolutely fantastic! I was out of town for the weekend and this was my first time using Rover to watch after my pets; I have never been so satisfied because Erica truly took care of my dogs as if they were her own”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and genuinely love spending time with animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll provide dependable care and treat them like they’re my own. I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, drop-in visit, or evening care, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure your pet feels safe and loved in their own environment. I’ll provide regular photo updates and communicate with you throughout each visit so you can have complete peace of mind.
“Kumiko helped us out last minute when our usual sitter couldn't watch Brutus. She did a fabulous job and we got pictures of him outside each visit being happy!”

I’m currently working part time retail(18 hours)but I have a flexible schedule and work in the neighborhood.I am able to work with any schedule accommodations . For me, supervision is key when it comes to safety in my home and a client's home. Making sure to be aware and focused on the pet to spot any unusual behaviors. My home is clean and is dog proofed to avoid any unnecessary accidents. Also, asking the pet parent for any medical or behavioral issues to make sure I’m ready for anything. Im currently working full time on call but am able to arrange my time to accommodate any pet bookings.Bookings in the customers home are the most easiest to achieve Im always available for a phone call or text and am very punctual with updates and photos.I also follow the pet care instructions very thoroughly

Jacqueline did an absolutely stellar job -- I got TONS of pictures of my kitties to help me feel secure while I was on vacation, and she did an amazing job both with the routine feeding/cleaning care as well as pets/play :) great communication, and was even able to be flexible and handle an extra day when my flight got cancelled. Highly recommend for all future pet care needs!
Emily is so kind and reliable! She always takes the best care of my cat when I’m out of town and I always know he’s in the best hands with her. She is very communicative and always spends so much time with him during her visits. Highly recommend her as always.
Maggie always treats our fur babies like family, and keeps us updated with daily reports and pictures. This provides peace of mind when we travel. She is a caring sitter and we use her every time we go out of town, knowing she will take care of our girls like a member of the family.
Ryan was so helpful with our dog and two cats. Our regular pet sitter had to cancel last minute and Ryan really stepped up and helped us out so much. He even gave our cat medicine so he could feel his best while we’re gone. We will definitely be rebooking with Ryan sometime soon!
Highly recommend Chris! He was a last-minute lifesaver to my two kittens. After our initial meeting I felt very confident and safe leaving him to check-in on them. And as expected, he did nothing but provide the exact care and regular correspondence I had hoped for. Thanks Chris!

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
