“Elaina was wonderful to work with! She was incredibly thorough with her care and followed every direction I left while I was away. Her report cards were detailed and gave me a really good idea of how each of the boys was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also sent plenty of pictures, and those meant a lot since I missed them so much. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We don't have a dog, but we do have 2 cats, a tropical fishtank, and backyard chickens. We reached out to Paula for check-in services over a long weekend trip we were so pleased. She had excellent communication right from the start, including special instructions for our little pet family, and she reached out politely in advance to remind me about some last minute details that I still hadn't confirmed with her. During the visits she took pics of the crew and gave an update both nights. (This was good, because Gizmo mewed that he didn't even get any food OR attention all the whole time, but I had photographic proof! Nice try, kitty!! You know how they are :) :) :) ) We will use Paula again! Thanks, Emily.”
“First time with Ariel. She was very personable. We talked about my cats requirements and she agreed with everything since I was having Elvis to stay overnight for the first time. Throughout the day, Ariel sent many pictures to show how Elvis was adapting. I would recommend Ariel to anyone that wants their pet to be treated with care and love!”
About: I've been a pet lover my whole life! I've lived with cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, and birds. As a pet parent, I know how stressful it can be to find a good pet sitter or walker. Let me meet with your furry or scaley babies and see that I'm a great match! Currently, I have two large dogs, three fish tanks, and an ever-growing indoor plant collection. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am very flexible and will work with you to meet all your pet needs! I consider watching someone else's pet to be a major responsibility to be taken seriously. My pets' needs come first, always. Pets often need or expect routine and consistency. I'm more than happy to provide your pets and you with reassurance their needs will be met.
About: Hi! I’m Jill and I have been a pet owner my entire life! I have had many puppies, dogs, cats and kittens myself so I definitely have a soft spot for our furry friends! Finding good pet care is just like finding a good babysitter you need someone you can trust and rely on! I hope to be that person for you! No matter if it’s a quick check-in or a walk, my total focus is making sure your pets are living their best life! I have been doing check-in and walks for over 10 years helping out coworkers, friends, family, and neighbors. Just because you might be busy or have a lot on your plate does not mean you should feel guilty for spending a little extra time away from your furry friends. I will use every minute with them to make sure they are comfortable, loved, healthy, safe and well-fed! When it comes to any special instructions, those are always a top priority, your wishes are my command! I run my own buisness and work only 5 minutes from my home! I am very flexible being on my own schedule! I don’t have children yet so my out of work schedule is very loose during the week days! When coming to your home to care for your pets all I ask is that some basic instructions of what you would like done is all that is required! I am well versed in pet care so most requests will not phase me! Dogs: I would love to take your pup for a walk or throw around their favorite toy in your yard if you have a fence or secured yard leash! Let me know how you would like their #2 disposed of for when they use the restroom! And of course, a treat or two for the big brave baby for being so good while their parents are away! Cats: feeding time/treat time is every kitties favorite! Whatever is needed will be executed with the addition of some pets and love! I am no stranger to a litter box so if we need a refresh, don’t hesitate to ask! All I ask, is that if your cat has a favorite toy to let me know what it is so we can have a little bit of playtime before our check-in time is over to keep them happy and enriched!
About: Hi there! I’m a full-time teacher with a lifelong passion for animals. Growing up, my home was always filled with pets from dogs, cats, and rabbits to fish, hamsters, and birds! I’m a proud pet parent to my sweet Pug and a very spunky orange tabby cat. I’ve personally used Rover for my own pets and absolutely loved my experiences. For over 10 years, I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors. My profession has given me endless patience, a strong sense of responsibility, and an eye for safety. I treat every animal in my care as I would my own family. Whether your dog wants to get outside and explore on a walk or your cat needs company and cuddles, I’d love to help make sure your adorable pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! My routine gives me wonderful, reliable flexibility to focus on your pets! I’m available early mornings, late afternoons, evenings, and all weekend long. Best of all, I have summers and holidays completely off, my schedule opens up fully for daytime walks, extra cuddles, and dedicated care when you need it most! Safety is always my highest priority! I stay alert, follow your exact routines, secure all doors and gates, keep dogs on sturdy leashes, and ensure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved.
“Absolutely ZERO complaints or issues with Nicole. She watched our cat for a week during a recent vacation. My wife and I are super early risers. Typically waking up around 3am. We got lucky with Nicole, she has a similar schedule and was able to feed our cat early mornings consistent with our daily feedings. Our meet & greet was great as well. We have never used Rover and were really unsure what to expect. Nicole answered questions via messaging before scheduling a meet. A few hours before our scheduled time, Nicole reached out to confirm our appointment. Nicole asked many questions about our cat, home, plants etc. Asked if she should shovel snow, water plants, take garbage to curb etc. Nicole really put my wife and I at ease after talking with her. Nicole gave us great report cards with her daily check-ins. Always received multiple pics of our cat in our home. We are new cat owners and were nervous on what to expect. When we travel in the future, and will not be able to bring our pets with us, we will definitely rebook with Nicole. All said, Nicole is a great reflection of Rover and what they offer pet owners. We look forward to interacting with Nicole again in the future.”
“Brittney was great. My normally shy cats instantly took a liking to her, and she took great care of them while I was out of town. Would definitely hire her again.”
“This is the second time we've booked with Makenna, and I'm yet again a happy customer! She's done a house sitting and drop in visit with fantastic through updates. I feel relieved she's taking such great care of my dog and cat.”
About: I have been pet sitting for the past 11 years with cozy at home pet sitting. I have had the pleasure of watching chickens, birds, cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, ect. I have two dogs at home Bowzer and Mazel. They are English chocolate labs and I am obsessed with them 🐾🐾 I am currently very available to help with pet sitting needs. I was a special education teacher for over 20 years and decided to change direction in my career. I have a furnished basement that I could board pets and a large yard for potty brakes and play. I have a friendly and safe neighborhood for walking. I'm available for drop-in visits in your home as well.
“Dasha has been great with both of my dogs! Blue is a new puppy to us and certainly requires much more work, however Dasha was absolutely fantastic with him and he seemed very thrilled with having someone able to come and play with him while I was gone for the day!”
About: Your pet will be treated like family! 🐾❤️ I’m a caring, patient, and dependable pet sitter who understands how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, and individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or your cat prefers a quiet space and lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. 🐶🐱❤️ I’m reliable and will make sure your pets get the care, attention, and routine they’re used to. I’m happy to communicate with you about the best times for visits and make sure everything is taken care of while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I have pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I’m gentle, patient, and respectful of each pet’s space and personality. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their home. 🐾😊
“You will never book another sitter again after meeting Bryan! He loves and understands cats so truly and provides the best, most thoughtful updates. My cat is my baby and my best friend and I have never felt more secure with her in someone’s care!! He took care of absolutely everything and ensured he knew all about her quirks and personality and play habits and veterinary information just in case. She seems so happy and well taken care of! I assure you, your cat will love Bryan.”
About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel

“Aliyah was great at taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She was prompt and professional and sent me photos of my cat daily. She was also able to accommodate for my cat’s dietary requirements. I would strongly recommend her services”
“Cara was truly amazing. This was the first time I had ever had my kitty away from home and I was truly happy with how it went. She has never been around dogs before and I was truly happy that she did well with the ones that were there! I am truly happy with this whole experience😊”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mentor
We are happy with how Ella took care of our Boys. We have 2 male cats, and one is very scared of people he does not know. Ella got him to come to her, and he would be waiting with his brother when she would come in, instead of hiding. Ella feed them, cleaned their litter box and she would pet them and give them some loving attention. We would definitely her refer to all our friends and do plan to have her take care of the boys again.
Elaina took wonderful care of Annie while we were away! She was reliable, attentive, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Annie was well cared for while we were gone. We came home to a very happy kitty! We would absolutely book with Elaina again and highly recommend her! Thanks so much, Elaina!

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 .
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 , 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 .
