“Natalee did a great job watching my home and kitties while I was on vacation. I love the photos and videos of the kitties she shares with me. I will definitely have Natalee stay when I travel in the future.”
“Maddie always does a wonderful job caring for our two cats. From just a few days to longer trips, she’s communicative, kind and does an amazing job! She is our go-to!!”
“Brooke did a wonderful job of dropping by and taking care of our 3 cats. Even the super shy one she tried her best to connect with and give special attention. For the 2 more forward cats, it was apparent when we got home just how well they handled their first time away from us. She kept us updated on how they all three were doing, and went above and beyond caring for them! All the pictures she sent back really put our minds at ease that they were doing great while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Brooke again for future trips away from home.”
About: A long time mid-30s pet parent who recently retired from the corporate world to pursue textile art. Since I’m now working from home, I have a flexible schedule to help out neighbors with their furry family. I currently have two large dogs and three cats, and have experience managing: - busy feeding times and special routines - medication (including injectables) - surgery recovery - walking reactive pups I also have experience caring for and cleaning up after guinea pigs and hamsters, fish and crawly friends. I am a go-to for pet & house sitting for friends and family and so excited to become best friends with yours! My schedule is totally flexible. When I was working long hours and traveling for work, I found it was so hard to find a sitter who was able to pop in irregularly or on short notice. I’m hoping to be that for you. With 5 pets in my own home, I won’t be able to board at my house. I have two large dogs (Aussie and Cattle Dog mixes) and three cats ranging from new kitten to over 15 years old! I have gone through surgeries, managed medications, and reduced reactivity on walks.
“Hope is always our first choice cat sitter. She is consistently reliable, kind, communicative, and competent. We appreciate her so much. She even left a bonus toy for the cats during her last visit which they love!”
“Anya followed all instructions well and made sure my baby Wes had his meds on time daily every morning! Very friendly, reliable, and wasn't phased by all the very detailed instructions I had printed out. Definitely recommend!”
“Rebecca took good care of my two cats. I had specific feeding times due to the health of one of my cats and Rebecca arranged her schedule to accommodate. Everything was clean when we got home and the cats we happy. I could not ask for anything more.”
“Ross did a great job with our two cats. He provided exactly the care we requested and spent time playing with our young cat to help her get out that pent up energy! He also provided superior communication. We greatly appreciated his sitting services”
“My cats were in good hands with Katie checking in on them and spending some time with them as well! She even left some cute treats and toys for them. Katie went above and beyond and also collected my mail while I was out of town. I’ll definitely Italy be reaching back out next time I need a sitter.”
“Celeste was great, we came home to a happy, spoiled kitty! Celeste sent great daily updates with photos and kept our spicy spunky Frankie entertained. Highly recommend and would book again!”
About: I have always been passionate about animal care, specifically dogs. I have 3.5 years of veterinary technician experience and have also worked at boarding facilities such as Pet Paradise. I am a student at Saint Louis University majoring in Biology, furthering my education in animal behavior. I enjoy jogging in my spare time, and have the stamina needed to play with or jog with pets. I am available on weekends during the day and most evenings. There’s nothing I love more than taking care of pets! I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I am a current graduate student, and therefore am working several hours a day during the week, but I am available most nights and on the weekends anytime! I am a helicopter parent when it comes to my own dog, and treat other pets with the same level of care and caution. I love sending pictures (if allowed) to ensure great care, and frequently keeps owners updated on how their fur babies are doing.
“Thank you to Alicia for taking great care of our cats and backyard chickens while we were out of town! I knew they were in great hands and I really appreciated the updates and photos. You even won the trust of our shy cat, something that takes most people a while. Thank you again for all of your effort and care for our crew!”
“Hayle was able to cover all of our days needed twice a day at a short notice. She sent pictures of our cats to us while we were away and our skittish one seems to be becoming more comfortable with her which is not an easy feat! Thanks Hayle!”
“Olivia did a great job of checking in on my two cats while we were on a short vacation. She made sure that they were happy and sent us lots of cute pictures of them!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Maplewood
Phoebe was amazing! This was the first time we left our cat. She usually takes a bit to warm up to people, but she was cuddling with Phoebe on the first visit (which we could see from all the pics she took). Phoebe was dependable and trustworthy with full access to our apartment. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
Heather has been working for me for several years. She is so dependable and takes such good care of my cats one of who is very old and needs to be brushed and the other who is very young and keeps her hoping. She still is able to get everything done in her twice daily visits. When I go on vacation, I never have to worry. I know Heather is taking great care of both my animals.
I’ve never used Rover before so I was a bit nervous, but Katie was absolutely phenomenal. She provided great care to my two cats, who can be a bit skittish, but took to her right away and even cuddled with her. Katie provided timely updates with lots of photos. She even left my cats a goodie bag with their names on it!! I will definitely be scheduling Katie again. Highly recommend her services!
The sitter we had used for our previous out-of-town dates was not available to do the daily visits for our 2 kitties. I was a little nervous about using a new person. However, after meeting Alyssa, we immediately felt at ease. She was extremely dependable and communicative during our time away (1-1/2 weeks).
I highly recommend Anna for your in-home pet-sitting needs. It would be difficult to find someone more dedicated to her clients' pets' well-being and happiness, while also providing owners with peace of mind. Anna sends daily updates, asks thoughtful questions, and works hard to build a strong rapport with both pets and their owners.
We were thrilled with the time Sarah spent on our cats! They love attention so it was much less stressful coming home from a trip knowing that they were well cared for and attended to. They had plenty of food, clean water, and the litter boxes weren’t overflowing, what more can you ask for!

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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , 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 Meet & Greet .

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.
