“Juliana is always dependable and caring. She made sure to play and give lots of pets to my playful and cuddles-loving kitty and also respectful of my shyer cat’s needs (and my shy cat let Juliana pet her) :) I knew they were well cared for and I didn’t need to worry about them while on vacation. Thanks Juli!!”
“Alicia was wonderful to work with . She was very communicative and took great care of our 10 year old cat while we were away for the week. Our cat warmed up easily to Alicia and enjoyed the attention that he revived during visits.”
“Julie was wonderful! I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my kitty was in the best hands. Came home to a relaxed kitty cat and a tidy litter box. Would love to book with Julie again!”
“Samantha is awesome. She stayed with my cat Azi for a whole week, and sent very regular updates and photos. She communicated quickly when needed - I could trust that I could reach her if I needed to, and that she would reach out to me if anything came up. Most importantly, I could tell that Azi was calm and happy with her, which gave me so much peace of mind! He was chill (not too desperate for affection) when I got home, and the house was clean and tidy. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”
“Katie was amazing! She is incredibly kind and the fur babies loved her. She gave detailed recaps of her visits and went above and beyond while we were away. 🐾”
“Dylan’s communication was fantastic and showed up for my pup and made sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. Thank you Dylan, we appreciate your time and the care you provided so we could enjoy our time away!”
“Thank you so much, Linda, for showing so much love for my kitty and baby, Roo! Linda offered consistent and compassionate updates about how Roo was doing and sent many pictures. I feel fully confident to leave Roo in Linda’s care and will absolutely continue to book with her.”
“Nicole is amazing! She is prompt, thorough, communicative and very personable. She even offered to bring our garbage cans in from the curb. I always know Bella is in great hands while I am away.”
“Jaanice was awesome with Chai. From the moment Chai walked in the door she was comfortable and made herself at home. Jannice updated me through pictures and messages. Would definitely book with her again! 🤍”
“Sophia did a great job caring for our two cats for a week while we were on vacation! She was great at sending updates, including pictures and videos, and made my shy kitties comfortable. I highly recommend Sophia!”
“Juliana did a great job checking in on our cat while we were traveling. Throughout the process, she was friendly, professional, responsive and reliable. Our pet was well taken care of and we are happy with the service Juliana provided. We’d definitely use her again if we have any pet sitting needs!”
“Anna was awesome!! I really appreciated her updates and communication. She left the house in great shape. Most importantly, my cat Azi clearly adored her, and I could travel knowing he was safe and happy. Will definitely hire again :)”
About: I have experience with all animals. From birds to lizards to dogs to cats to fish and turtles!!! I know how to handle aggressive dogs. I have been around animals all my life. I love spending time with them! I have one dog and one cat who are the sweetest and most chill pets you’ll meet. I want to bring your pets as much comfort as they bring to other people. I do work, but have plenty of time to give your animals exercise and cuddles. I love playing with them and being kept productive while watching them. I will use any toys and equipment for your animals that I have access to and love to play outside with some fetch or frisbees!!!
About: Hi, my name is Leydi! I’ve loved dogs and cats my whole life and have been around them since I was little. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family and friends. I’ve always dreamed of working with animals because I truly enjoy being around them and making sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I love seeing dogs go on walks, play, and just enjoy their day, and I feel the same way about cats and their unique personalities. Rover feels like a perfect fit for me because I get to do something I genuinely love. I’m very patient, responsible, caring, and attentive, and I would love the chance to meet and take care of your furry friend :) I’m super responsible and committed. I can definitely accommodate your needs with a little bit of advance notice. Having my own dog, I know how much time they need, so I dedicate pretty much all of my free time to her and I'd love to do the same for your pup! I live in an apartment complex surrounded by lots of nature! We have a dedicated area in the back with both a fenced dog park and a big open one. I have a small dog named Lola who is super friendly and loves playing with dogs and cats. While I prefer watching your pup at your place, I’m happy to host for doggy daycare!

Miranda was a phenomenal cat sitter for us while we were away! She made sure the cats were cared for, played with, and loved! We have a litter robot and she made sure it had enough litter inside, which was not something we specifically requested her to do, but it just shows how much she cares! She gave amazing updates and pictures and I never once was worried that our cats weren’t in good hands! We would absolutely recommend her and will be booking with her again on our next trip! :)
Hannah is amazing! Our 2 kitties and our pup loved hanging out with her. She took such great care of our babies! She kept us updated with lots of photos at each check in (including our pups meds, which gave us peace of mind). She went above and beyond, opening the blinds for the cats to look out every day and scooping their litter. We cannot recommend Hannah enough. Thank you again for loving and caring for our babies while we were away!! ♥️
Destiny really went above and beyond for our pets and our home while we were away. She proved to be super caring and responsible. Not only did she show up on time daily to feed them, she tidied up after them, played with them, photographed them for us while we missed them overseas, and even took the initiative to tend to some plants that started to wilt. Definitely our first choice for future trips. She even seemed to make the shyer of our two pets break out of her shell and become more social. Knowing the care our pets were getting back home really made it easier for us to enjoy our trip fully. We’re forever grateful.
Firstly, Kaeleigh is kind and reliable. You can tell she has a lot of experience with cats and I trust her with my own. One of the things I appreciated most was before she accepted the job was that she suggested to have a meet with the cats to make sure everyone was compatible. My cats loved her and I'm sure yours will too!

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 .
