“Sarah was the best cat sitter! She took such good care of our two cats while we were away. She sent a thorough update after every visit including pics of our cats. You can tell how much she loves animals! We definitely plan on using her again.”
“Nicole is amazing! She took such good care of my furbaby while we were away. I highly recommend Nicole if you need someone to care for your pet. I will definitely use her every time I have to be away from my baby!! 😻”
“Chelsea is great! Not only did she accommodate our last minute request for a sitter, but she made the time for a meet and greet to make sure our shy pup was comfortable during her stay. She gave us the peace of mind that our dog had company when we had to be away. Super flexible and will book again!”
About: I been a pet owner my whole life. Animals are attracted to my spirituality, love, and reliability. They are in good hands. No stress 😌 My schedule has flexibility and open to make accommodations if some of the days do not fit your schedule. I am able to make arrangements. I have 2 cat furr babies who are well taken care of. One is deaf and it has made me even more patient with animals.
“Lori does a great job with our pets. We just got back from 4 days away and all our pets were happy and well cared for. Our house was all in order too. She is very professional.”
About: I've had pets since I was a little girl and even worked at a dog grooming salon for three years, which I loved. Over the past 3 summers, I’ve been on Rover and love my experience with animals and clients. I am still recovering from surgery, and we can discuss that when booking with me. I want to create a place where owners feel like they can reach out me and trust me when needed Hello, I’m currently a college student home for the summer. Back in April, I had hip replacement surgery. Over the past few weeks, I've been able to get back on my feet and move around a little more. I was looking to help any furry friends around the area that need to be fed or let outside. Unfortunately, I can't handle large, high-energy dogs. Please reach out, and we can discuss. If anyone needs help with small dogs or cats, I'm your girl. During drop-ins, I typically follow the owners' requests, which include feeding the animals, playing with them, spending time together, letting them outside, and refilling their water, etc.
“Briana took care of our 2 dogs, and we are very happy with our first experience. We will definitely use her in the future. She was quick to reply to our emails, and followed all our instructions. Most importantly, she was reliable: checking-in at the agreed on times, sending photos, and letting us know the dogs were fine.”
“Miriam took great care of our kitties! They had fun playing Da Bird with her, and they appreciated the cuddles and treats. We will most certainly have her take care of them the next time we travel.”
About: I have had cats and have taken care of them since I was eight years old, and have spent time with dogs, but don't have any of my own. But I am looking forward to meeting yours. I work part time, usually at night and usually on weekends, I am pretty flexible on weekdays and can take care of your pet in the mornings or afternoons. I feed and clean up after my cat at home. If I am walking a dog then I am comfortable running or going at any pace.
“Cam did a great job with my sweet but shy baby, Cardi. She can be very difficult to manage when giving medication and knows it’s coming, but Cam did great with her. I was kept up to date and even received a video of Cardi making biscuits on her favorite blanket. That put a huge smile on my face. Exactly what I needed as I was in the hospital for a procedure. Cam was very communicative, punctual and very careful with Cardi as she has arthritis in her lower spine and a bad left hip. I was appreciative of the concern for her wellbeing. Would definitely use Cam again.”
“Working with Jacqueline was an A+ experience from start to finish. We had booked a fairly challenging care schedule with two Golden Retrievers at home while we were away, but Jacqueline exceeded every expectation and more! She was diligent in sending updates, shared wonderful photos of activities and moments, and was an overall wonderful caregiver to our dogs. We could tell how happy they were to see her each day! Jacqueline was a true partner to us and left an amazing impression of the level of service she brings to the job; we would happily work with her again in the future.”
“Alexandria did a wonderful job of getting to know and care for a smart and sassy Chihuahua Amanda. She showed great affection for Amanda and I am certain she has that ability to get to do the same for most any dog out there. You will very happy with Alexandria. I almost think Amanda misses Alexandria ore than me, but that’s just fine. It demonstrates Alexandria commitment to Amanda.”
“Thank you so so so much! Carlos is awesome and communication is great. It made me feel better being away for so long knowing that Carlos was caring for them. Thank you again!”
“Mouse had a fantastic time with Rachel — he was treated like the tiny prince that he is. He spent time with her hanging out in the sun on the deck, exploring the backyard, and making himself comfortable on her lap. When it was time for her to leave he didn’t want to budge from her lap, and he doesn’t warm up to people easily like that! She sent plenty of pics and updated me on his activities. I’ll happily book Rachel again anytime!”

Mark and Devon are sent from the heavens to take great care of your sweet little fluffy loved ones. They are kind, detail oriented, and great communicators. They give us such peace of mind while we’re away, and we don’t want anyone else watching our girl! we’re so grateful for you guys ! 💖🙏🏼
My kitties have never been cared for as well as Miriam cared for them. She truly interacts with them and delights in their antics. She also took exceptional care of their necessities as well as going above and beyond keeping things clean. She sent detailed pictures and comments every visit. I think my cats were disappointed it wasn’t Miriam when we walked through the door. Have already booked her for our next trip.

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.
