“Shianne has helped with our cat and chickens a couple times now. She is communicative, attentive, and reliable - I was grateful to have her help while we were away!”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our three cats in Melissa's hands. I received updates and pictures, and I couldn't believe how my boys came out of there shells and seemed perfectly comfortable. She is very responsible, has a great personality, and loves cats! I highly recommend her!!”
“Thank you Veronica! Arrived home from my journey and found everything in order and a kitty cat that was eager to see me, but was clearly taken care of in my absence. Will definitely seek to reenlist Veronica for future journeys”
“Kimberly was great! Communicative, responsible and kind. I felt totally at peace when we were away and the kitties were calm and everything was in order when we got home. Will use her again.”
“Avalon was the best cat sitter for my boy cat. I needed someone last minute and she was able to take on his care and was a great communicator throughout the process. My cat needed 3 different oral medications which she was able to administer without any problems. And if you know cats and meds it’s very challenging to get meds in them! She definitely knows cat language and behavior and I would highly recommend her for any cat care. I felt very at ease leaving my boy under her care. Not to mention my cat absolutely loved and adored her. Avalon you are a cat whisperer thank you so much!!”
“Absolutely the best with my nervous old dog. She is very intuitive to him and kind. Everytime she dropped in she would provide detailed info on what happened and how he was and included pictures. So happy to have found Alicia!”
“Kaylee was amazing! She spent time with our kitties, played with them, fed them, and even gave them treats that her cat didn’t love. She was a clear communicator and reliable! We’d have her watch our cats any time!”
“Molly did a great job cat sitting for us! Both of our cats are extremely shy, but by the end of her stay, she had Jaden coming out for pets. We really appreciated her patience and care with them!”
“Highly recommend Kat! She took care of our two cats expertly for 6 days. One of our cats takes an inhaler for asthma as well as oral medication, and Kat was able to provide that without any issues which is so important to us. She spent quality time with them and kept us informed of anything that came up throughout our trip. She is very trustworthy and has a very nice and caring personality. Thanks, Kat!”
“Megan did a fabulous job caring for my apartment and my anxious cats while I was away for a week. I recommend their services and will definitely be using them in the future!”
“Kathy did a fantastic job watching our cat, Lilly. She gave descriptive check-in notes which were very comforting while we were away. Lilly normally gets quite lonely while we are gone and she seemed very content when we returned!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I have a medically complex cat, so I’m very experienced with giving pills and administering medications. As a pet owner myself, I understand how stressful it can feel to be away from your pet. My goal is to care for your animal with the same attention and genuine care I give my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m currently a medical student at Oregon Health & Science University completing a dedicated research year, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout much of the week. Taking dogs on walks or spending time with animals has become one of my favorite ways to step away from studying, get outside, and recharge, so I’d love for your pet to join me! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I'm walking your dog or caring for your pet in your home, I make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, playtime, and a positive experience. I always keep cats indoors and dogs leashed unless instructed otherwise in a secure, designated area. I also provide owners with regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Julie did a fantastic job of watching our two cats over the holidays! Great communication and photos of the cats. Our trip was unexpectedly extended by 5 days and Julie kindly continued to care for our cats until we got home. We highly recommend Julie and hope to use her again.”
“J Does a great job with my pup and yesterday was super helpful because she drilled him on his commands and helped get some kongs prepped. J is reliable and communicates well.”
“Sydney was great during an overnight stay with our cat! She was attentive and I could tell she was really looking out for his needs. When he became a bit antisocial and cried during the night, Sydney didn’t hesitate to reach out and see if there was anything else she could do to make him feel comfortable. Her energy definitely aligned with our cat’s and he got along with her great. Thanks Sydney!”
“Colin was phenomenal at taking care of our pup! He left detailed notes that gave us great updates and peace of mind that our dog was well cared for. Colin took our dog out for a walk, even when not necessary, to give her extra attention and stimulation. We came back to one happy dog and safe home!”
About: I’ve lived with and around dogs for most of my younger years. While i do not have my own anymore, I have plenty of experience around dogs of different temperaments and sizes. I’ve watched anything from a chihuahua to a great dane! I would love to meet your pup and make sure they are comfortable while you’re away. Recently moved and looking for work! We can work around your needs easily due to me not having other work at the moment. I would love to help! I’m big on listening to the owners! You know your dog best!! I only offer care in clients homes so your pets can stay as comfortable as possible. We could always schedule a meeting before you select just to see if it’s a good fit. Im great at accommodating to different pets and their lifestyles, I would love to work for you!

Sharon is a wonderful cat sitter! Communication was excellent throughout, and I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in good hands. She was reliable, attentive, and made sure one of my cats received her medication as needed. I really appreciated the care and attention she gave, and I would happily book with her again!
Kimberly immediately recognized our beloved cat was having a medical problem, and was immediately communicative and got him to emergency medical care, waiting there as long as was needed, setting aside her own plans. She was so kind and treated our little Watson like he was her own family. While he remained in the hospital, she constantly offered to be supportive and see/comfort him as we were trying to get back in town. Ill never forget the impact this kindness made for our family. If I could give her 100 stars I would. Thank you Kim from the bottom of our hearts.
Sydney was absolutely wonderful! As a new cat mom and a first-time Rover user, I was a little nervous about leaving my two ragdoll one year old boys, but Sydney immediately put me at ease. I really appreciated that she came over for a meet-and-greet beforehand, and it was clear right away how genuinely she loves and understands animals. While I was away, her updates made me feel completely comfortable knowing the cats were in great hands. She was incredibly attentive, spent time playing with them, and clearly cared about making sure they were happy and comfortable. I loved getting her updates and seeing how well they were doing. I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience. I highly recommend Sydney and will absolutely be booking with her again!

I don’t understand the psychology of pet owners and pet providers… perhaps it’s the common bond of loving animals, but i handed Summer our house keys within 30 minutes of our meet and greet appointment. I generally don’t do that easily. Summer was responsive to our requests for our cat’s care and meal plan and arranged to fit into our schedule without question. She sent us great photos and answered our questions promptly.
Julie did a fantastic job of watching our two cats over the holidays! Great communication and photos of the cats. Our trip was unexpectedly extended by 5 days and Julie kindly continued to care for our cats until we got home. We highly recommend Julie and hope to use her again.

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 .

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.
