“Natalie was an amazing pet sitter. She was kind, professional, and really easy to work with from start to finish. My cat warmed up to her right away, which says a lot—he’s usually pretty cautious with new people. She took great care of him, kept me updated, and made the whole experience stress-free. I’d definitely recommend her and will gladly book with her again.”
“I have had multiple visits with Elizabeth and she is my hands down favorite sitter! She is so good with my shy kitty and my doggo. So grateful I found her! It's hard for me to trust people, but she always surpasses the standard and does an amazing job in my home with my critters' care. Eill definitely be rebooking!”
“Amazing job! Was able to help over the holidays and took excellent care of my cat. Was patient with his shy personality. Provided great communication. Top notch care.”
“Erin is a fantastic option for a pet sitter! She is attentive and goes out of her way to make my pet comfortable when I'm gone. My cat doesn't warm up to people easily but always comes out of her shell when Erin looks after her.”
“My cats loved being with Mark and his wife - they are very reliable and are great communicators always keeping me up to date and sending pictures of my babies”
“Julieta is wonderful and super communicative. She took care of my older dog just as if she was her own. I look forward to a long relationship together as I plan to continue booking! I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Mariya was fantastic watching my two cats for the week I was away. My situation isn’t the easiest — my cats have to be kept separated, with one being pretty shy around new people — but Mariya handled it with patience and care. She kept me updated with regular check-ins, and it was clear she genuinely paid attention to each cat’s individual needs rather than just doing a quick in and out visit. I came home to two happy, well fed, comfortable cats and zero stress. Highly recommend Mariya to anyone with cats, especially if you’ve got a trickier multi-cat household like mine she’s clearly experienced and trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“She was so kind and responsive, even with a last-minute request. I felt really comfortable trusting her with everything, and she took excellent care — she even tidied up my place a bit, which was such a thoughtful touch.”
“Jimmy is an incredible sitter! He takes such great care of our cat, Tito, and always goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect while we’re away. His updates are thoughtful, detailed, and reassuring—it’s clear how much he genuinely cares. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy space, and it means so much to know Tito is in such good hands. We’re so grateful for Jimmy and will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“Shiyu is absolutely wonderful!! She is communicative, interactive with my dog and pays attention to detail. I have utilized her services 3 times in the last 2 months and will continue to do so!”
“Rachel was spectacular with my two kitties. I cannot sing her praises enough! One of my cats won’t come out for anyone but she immediately came out for her. I don’t know what it is but she has the magic touch!”
About: I’ll take time to learn your pet’s personality, preferences, and routine so they feel comfortable in my care. Whether your pet enjoys active walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and messages. I’m currently a medical student, and I plan bookings around my academic commitments so I can give your pet the attention they need. Before confirming, I’ll discuss my availability and your pet’s usual routine, including walks, meals, bathroom breaks, and how long they’re comfortable being alone. I don’t have a yard, so outdoor time will include leashed walks and bathroom breaks suited to your dog’s routine and energy level. Before each booking, I’ll review feeding instructions, behavior, emergency contacts, and any special needs. In your home, I’ll respect your space, secure doors, and follow your instructions to keep your pet safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my life, so taking care of animals has always been a very natural part of my everyday life. I have over 15 years of personal experience caring for pets, and I truly treat them like family. I also have experience caring for my own disabled little dog, which has taught me a completely different level of patience, responsibility and love. Her care includes helping her go to the bathroom manually and keeping her bladder empty, changing and cleaning diapers, keeping her clean and comfortable, waking up during the night when she needs me, and making sure she always feels safe and cared for. Because of her, I’m very comfortable with pets who need a little extra attention, patience or a more hands-on routine. I currently work from home, so if your dog stays with me, I’ll be around throughout the day to give them plenty of attention, cuddles, potty breaks and company. I also have a dog park very close to my apartment, so I can take them out for walks, fresh air and playtime depending on what they’re used to and what you’re comfortable with. My home is very pet-friendly. Dogs are welcome on my couch and furniture, and yes, they can absolutely sleep in my bed! 😂 If we’re doing an overnight stay and your dog is used to sleeping with you, they can sleep with me too. If they prefer their own bed or crate, I’ll always follow their normal routine. I want them to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic daily care, cleaning up after pets and, most importantly, giving them lots of love and attention. For now, I’m only accepting small dogs so I can make sure every dog I care for is a good fit for my home and gets the attention they deserve. I also speak both English and Spanish. 🇺🇸🇨🇴 I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so my goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being cared for by someone who genuinely loves animals. I’ll treat your baby the same way I would want someone to treat mine. 🐾🤍 I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be present with your pup throughout the day. I can easily accommodate potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, playtime and lots of attention and cuddles in between. Since I’m home most of the day, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods of time, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to what they’re used to at home. 🐾 I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable and at home. I live in an apartment and only accept small dogs, so I’m able to give them plenty of individual attention. I’ll always follow your dog’s normal feeding, potty, walking and sleeping routine as closely as possible. Pets are welcome on my furniture and bed, and I’m happy to have them sleep with me if that’s what they’re used to. If they prefer their own bed or crate, that’s perfectly fine too! I also have a dog park very close to my apartment for walks and outdoor time, and I’ll always follow your preferences when it comes to interacting with other dogs. I know every dog has their own personality, habits and little quirks, so I’ll always take the time to learn what makes your baby feel safest and happiest. 🤍🐾
“Sigrid was absolutely amazing with my cats! 🥰 She was so sweet, attentive, and reliable, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands while I was away. She kept me updated, took great care of everything, and made the whole experience stress free. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter! ❤️🐾”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past 10 years and have had two dogs of my own, with one still happily in my care today. Being a dog owner has taught me how important it is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and getting to know each dog’s personality. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, affection, and care I’d want for my own dog. Taking care of dogs fits well into my routine because it’s something I really enjoy. I have a flexible schedule, so I can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or just keeping your dog company. I know how important it is to stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I know leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel confident they’re in good hands. I’ll always follow your instructions and make sure your dog stays safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether it’s sticking to their feeding schedule, going on walks, or giving them extra attention, I’ll care for them like they’re my own and make sure they get the love and care they deserve.
About: Missing my dachshund who's in puppy heaven, and would love to care for other furry friends until we're ready to open our home/heart again. I have taken care of many dogs, big and small, my kitty Kiko and a few friendly birds throughout my life, and am committed to a calm, patient and kind environment. I am currently working from home full time with a flexible work schedule. I can step away from my desk whenever needed, and change my schedule as needed with appropriate notice. We have a small patio with a big park 5min walk away. I can work on crate training with your dog if needed. Or bring my work to your home, if home is whats best for your best friend .

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Miami
Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful! Getting daily photo updates and detailed report cards gave me total peace of mind, allowing me to fully relax and enjoy my vacation knowing Otto was in such good hands. I was so grateful she was also able to water our plants 🍅🌱
Siggy helped us out on short notice and was just wonderful! She really made sure to follow the instructions provided, gave our kitty time to slowly get to know her and eased our minds with detailed updates and photos. If she had questions she’d get in touch right way which we also appreciated a lot.
Jimmy (cat daddy) was so amazing! Got into my apartment with no trouble, was on time, and sent lots of sweet pictures and notes that made me feel at peace when I was gone from the fur babies. Thank you again, Jimmy, and glad I found a go-to cat sitter when I travel!
Rebecca is an amazing cat sitter! She’s always on time, very reliable, and keeps great communication throughout every visit. I really appreciate that she always sends pictures and updates, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. Most importantly, my cat loves her! It’s clear that Rebecca genuinely cares and takes great care of her. I always feel comfortable knowing my cat is in such good hands. I highly recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!
Rachel is an absolute angel. My cat fell in love with her immediately. Rachel provided great pictures and updates every single day which helped me know that my cat was doing well and I could relax during my vacation. I will hire Rachel again in the future anytime I need a sitter. Thank you for everything, Rachel. Lily sends you many kisses.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .

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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
