“Brooklyn was so great with my cat! I’m uneasy every time I have to leave him behind but she put my mind at ease, sending great pictures and giving status updates. Would be so happy to have her watch my pet anytime!”
“Mason is wonderful! He took great care of my cats while I was out of town and made sure they were loved on. He is transparent, easy to communicate with, and provides great visit reports and photos. You’ll be at ease knowing he is watching your fur babies and they will be well taken care of.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and love everything about them! I’ve cared for kittens, adults, seniors, and multiple pet households. I have experience with post-op care, cat introductions, and indoor/outdoor cats. I also have experience taking care of young and senior dogs, including administering medication and interacting with cats. Housesitting - I can’t be there 24 hours a day because I have my own pets, but we can discuss how much I need to be away. I work full time from home, mostly available evenings and weekends, daytime if my schedule allows. I’m a night owl so late night visits are okay! I go at your pet’s pace and provide a safe, loving environment so they gain my trust. I go by their usual routine/ habits as not disrupt their routine.
About: I'm a cat sitter who really spends tons of time PLAYING with cats! My husband and I adopted our orange cat Jonesy, then a 1-year-old, from PETSMART, in Sep 2024. He's currently a little over 2 years old, super healthy, super active. If you're familiar with orange cats, you know how much energy they have. No matter how tired I am, I always make sure that our Jonesy gets at least 30 minutes' play every single day (this can often develop into a 1-hour play or even more). I'm more than happy to care for quieter cats, of course, but if your cat is super active, I'm your girl! I'm currently a homemaker, so my time is pretty flexible. (What's in the parenthesis here is because they ask me to write 25 words...) I specialize in cat care, although I'm also very excited to do dog care (I know how to play with dogs, but am still awaiting my 1st ever dog poop pickup experience!) My cat (Jonesy, a 2-yr-old orange tabby) loves strings, so I'd play strings or yarn with your cats, too, if they love it. If you have a cat tunnel, we can also play with that - my Jonesy is crazy about his tunnel (it has a bunch of holes where he can stick his head out and catch whatever toy I'm playing with him). We can play fetch if your cat likes it, and any toy that you have! Just let me know your cat's favorite toy. Of course, a lot of petting and even belly rub if they allow me - every cat is different.
“I HIGHLY recommend Iris as a cat sitter. Her warm , personable demeanor is noticeable from the moment I met her. Her love for cats is evident by the great care she gave my 2 cats for the 9 days she had them. She kept me updated with pictures and text messages on how they were doing. They were well cared for. I am deeply grateful. I will recommend Iris to family and friends in need of a cat sitter. Thank you Iris!”
“Sara is extremely easy to work with, communicative, and reliable. She came through for my family at the last minute and did an amazing job. I highly recommend her services”
About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I have goats, cats, and dogs. I pet sit for my family friends when they need me to. I have walked, fed, bathe, and played with many animals. I am currently not working, so I have a lot of time to tend to your pets needs! Everyday but Monday’s bd Wednesdays work best! I will follow any guidelines for your pets that you give me. I can crate you dog if needed. However, I do have animals at my house
About: I have worked in dog care for multiple years and have gained many skills from this. I have also had a lot of exposure to different dogs and their needs! I do work at a dog kennel currently, but wanted to try something on my own but I would work this around my work schedule as I am only part time. Firstly I will always respect your space! I would love in-depth instructions to ensure no confusion. I will complete all tasks properly and meet all their needs. Their safety is most important as well as caring for them properly:)
“Latasha was wonderful! All the cats loved her as soon as they met her. She has a natural talent when it comes to getting to know your pets. She sent pictures of our cats to us everyday on vacation and was super responsive on her phone when we wanted to see our pets. It was such a relief knowing that she was here with them. One of the things I appreciated the most was that when we got here it was as clean as when we left it. She took all the notes and she performed the tasks laid out to her exactly like we did with the cats. She also helped keep them on their schedule by following their feeding times. Latasha played with them which is honestly more than I do sometimes. They may have gotten a little spoiled with all the attention lol. Each day she would send images but she'd also send a little story or observation of the cat. That was nice because it helped us to know that they were acting in their usual ways and not sad that we were gone and missed us. I would 1000% book Latasha again. If you've never had a cat sitter (we hadn't) she will answer all your questions and really set your nerves at ease.”
About: I am a young professional who has plenty of free time to care for your pets! I will love them as I love my own. Love cats, dogs, etc. I can walk, jog, or simply let them out if you have a yard of your own. I also can clean up after them. I provide services at your home. I will treat your animals with respect and let them know that they are loved even when you aren’t around! I am available for drop ins, in-home pet sitting, etc while you are at work or on vacation. If desired, I can take your animal to parks or trails. I am good with various breeds and have years of experience fostering. I would love to be considered for your pet sitting needs!
“Grateful for Lesley! This was our first time working with her and she did a great job taking care of our 2 cats and home while we were away for the weekend. She was friendly, professional, attentive to both their needs, a great communicator and shared lots of updates on her progress with them. Both cats showed multiple signs that they were comfortable with her, which was a huge relief and provided the peace of mind we needed to relax while we were away. Thanks Lesley!”
“Jenni was great looking after our doodle while we took a little weekend getaway. She did everything we asked and made sure to send pics so we know how our Arya is doing.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Big dogs, small dogs, lazy dogs, crazy dogs. I’ve seen it all and love it so much! I also used to work at the humane society of Missouri, so I am incredibly qualified to walk any and all kinds of dogs no matter the temperament, I guarantee I’ve seen it all! Hyper dogs, reactive dogs, shy dogs. You can trust I have the skills to safely walk your furry friend and provide love and enrichment! Hello!! I’d love to add your furry friend into my morning daily walk :) I am an outdoor education teacher in the Northampton St. Louis neighborhood and am looking to walk some lovely animals weekdays 7 am-9:00 am and any time of day on weekends!! I can also do walks anytime after 6:00 pm! As for daily in house check ins, I can also do those at the times stated above :) as you will find in my profile, I am very experienced with dogs and cats and other pets and have a deep genuine love for animals ❤️ I love forming a trusting relationship with any animals I interact first. Trust is the essential part of any dog/cat human interaction, so I can better suit their needs.
About: As an extreme animal lover, I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs of all ages, size and temperaments for nearly two years while volunteering at the APA. There, I spend my time either walking dogs or caring for cats in the cat room. On top of that, I have been pet sitting for nearly my whole life. I love being able to meet new animals and providing them with the proper care they need! I currently work part-time and have lots of time to give your animals the care they need! Outside of work, my schedule is very flexible and can accommodate to your pets needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feedings or simply keeping your pet company, I will be able to give your animal the love and care they need! I am able to devote time and effort towards your furry friend to ensure that they feel safe and loved while you are away.
About: I've been hanging out with animals all my life; taking care of others' animal babies for close to a decade. No mess is too gnarly; I've popped pills and dispensed hairball meds. Love a long neighborhood walk or a long snuggle. Let me help take care of your fur babies! I do not have pets of my own; I much prefer being the fun pet aunt! I have siblings and close friends with dogs and cats, who I've spent a lot of time with and pet sit often. I'm flexible! Not having my own pets also means I have plenty of time and energy to spend with yours. I work full time M-F, but most weeks I work from home 3 days a week, and that can be your home with your fur baby. Whether I'm popping in for a walk or a potty break or spending several nights with your fur baby, they will be my priority. I love a long neighborhood walk, snuggles, and will take the time to play. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or routine, and I will be sure to keep things consistent. I'll work with you to be sure I understand your pupper or kitten's daily and weekly routine--feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and any other necessities.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Manchester
Cleo was wonderful with my kitties and they adore her! One of them is very shy and hid at first, and she took the time and patience to make him feel comfy and made sure he got what he needed. She was communicative about how they were doing and I felt so much better being away from them knowing she was there and loving them like her own cats! She is awesome and we'd happily book her again!!
Lawton took such amazing care of my fur babies and my home while I was away on business. She was a wonderful communicator throughout, sending pictures, videos, and daily report cards that gave me peace of mind and reassurance that everyone was happy and well cared for. This was my first time using Rover, and Lawton made it such a great experience. I will definitely be a repeat customer and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter!
Ashley was great!! I got pictures & a report card every check-in. She was very attuned to my senior kitty. She is on some medication that can come with side effects and Ashley made sure to let me know what she was noticing! Definitely will hire again. She has a great attitude & even watered my plant while I was away! Thank you so much, Ashley!!

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 .

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
