“Lindsay is a great pet sitter. She sent us many pictures and gave detailed updates when we were on a long overseas vacation. We appreciated her attention to detail when we were traveling. We will definitely book Lindsey again!”
“We had such a great experience with Wendy and Rick! They were incredibly kind, attentive, and took such good care of Mini while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and could tell she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Jayda was super professional and took great care of my cats for a few days! I booked her pretty last minute and even had to modify my booking a couple times, and she was more than accommodating. I will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Annie was fantastic - responsive and ensured Maeve was doing well while I was away. She even got her to come out of hiding daily - not something everyone has been able to do!”
“So thankful to have Jerome and Linda watching my 2 cats while I travel. They are very conscientious and can handle their very different personalities. Thanks for giving me the peace of mind that you’ll take good care of them!”
“Abigail was wonderful with my boys, and very communicative each time she dropped in to care for them. It was a holiday week so I was very happy to have gotten her booked.”
“I’m so glad we booked Sarah to watch our two cats while we were traveling for a week! It’s clear she loves animals, and she really went above and beyond in caring for ours. Communication was always super quick, she followed all the care instructions, and sent cute rover cards with lots of pictures. She even wrote a card and drew little pictures of our kitties, was very cute to come home to. We will definitely book Sarah to look after our kitties next time we go out of town!”
“As always, when I come home after Jennifer cares for Miss Greycie and Sir Charlie, the kitties are both happy and chill! They LOVE their Auntie Jennifer because they know she LOVES them. I highly recommend Jennifer! 💖”
“I really appreciated how thorough Allison was in her communication with us prior to the drop-in visit and also the note that she provided afterwards. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Amanda is great! I appreciate the detailed and fun rover cards, her easygoing attitude, and most importantly that she took excellent care of my cats! One of my cats requires a daily oral medication, and Amanda let me know how the administration went each day, and that eased my anxiety while being out of town.”
“Anna was the perfect choice for taking care of our cats for a long weekend trip! She was attentive, responsive, considerate and wonderful to our four kitty cats. We loved her detailed updates and pictures. Her level of care was top-notch!”
About: I am new to Rover, but I have many years of experience in taking care of animals. In addition to living with cats and dogs for most of my life, I have also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society. In addition to pets, I also volunteered at the Wildlife Science Center with feeding animals such as foxes, raccoons, bobcats, a lynx, and skunks, and I had the opportunity to care for wolf pups at the International Wolf Center. I am recently retired, so my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and most evenings and am able to work around your schedule. I currently have two cats and previously had dogs, so I understand the importance of keeping them on a regular schedule. Being around animals gives me joy, so I look forward to spending quality time with your pet. I follow your instructions and make sure to follow your pet’s lead when interacting with them. I send you pictures, so you can see how your pet is doing when you are away. I can also check mail and water plants if needed.
“Katie was great, she came through on a somewhat last minute request when my prior sitter was no longer available, and made it work! I came home to a pretty mellow kitty and had the ease of knowing she was getting some love while I was away. No complaints!!”
“Perla did a great job looking after our 2 cats while we were away on vacation for 11 days. She took time to send us photos every day and took great care of keeping up on their food/water/litterbox. Our cats are normally very shy and took to her immediately, I will 100% use her services in the future 😊”
“Awesome. So thorough and great communication from start to finish. Cat was expertly taken care of and allows us to focus on vacation worry free. Katherine is definitely 10/10. Thank you.”

This was our second time hiring Amelia to watch Mr Bubs. It went completely smoothly, everything was perfect. Mr Bubs was well taken care of and Amelia was friendly, professional, and respectful of our home. We got daily updates with pictures. Definitely going to hire Amelia again!
Megan did a wonderful job with our two kitties. The photos, videos and personal updates showed how much Megan cared for our cat boys. Playtime captured showed how much fun Megan and our cat boys had together. We would definitely recommend and book with Megan again for our future cat drop-in needs while we are gone.
Julie was fantastic! She clearly understands cat body language and genuinely enjoys spending time with cats, which was very important to us. Our cat, Pepper, is extremely social, and it was obvious Julie enjoyed visiting and playing with her. She also took so many adorable, high-quality photos during each visit, which gave us peace of mind and made being away from Pepper much easier. Julie followed all of our care instructions carefully, including Pepper's feeding routine, and kept the litter boxes clean throughout our trip. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. We're extremely satisfied with Julie's care and wouldn't hesitate to book her again. She's someone you can absolutely trust to take excellent care of your cat.
Being new to the area we were in search of care for our two male cats while we went on vacation. We had Beth care for our two male cats over the fourth of july holiday. She bonded with them immediately. We were grateful that she was available on a holiday weekend since a few other sitters we contacted were not. She sent updates each day. We would not hesitate to hire her again.
Ava watched our cat, Octavia, while we were out of town on a trip. This was our first time so we were nervous about what to expect but Ava was great! She offered to do a meet and greet to meet our little girl beforehand to get acquainted with each other. Ava shared lots of photos while we were away and gave Octavia lots of cuddles and playtime. Even when we had a change of plans and had to come home early, she was understanding and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her!
T.L. loved Elizabeth, they got a long amazingly well. She was able to help me out on a last minute trip and was extremely accommodating in the care of my girl and times to see her. I would definitely rebook and recommend Elizabeth for the care of your animals!
Amy checked on our kitties routinely while we were out of town for three weeks. We arrived home to find that they had been well-cared for: plenty of food and water, and clean litter-boxes. We would definitely engage her again in the future, and recommend her to others.

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.
