“Madelyn is an angel! She was amazing with our two cats who are usually hesitant to strangers. I recommend her to everyone who needs any sort of pet services.”
“Casey is exceptional! This was our first time hiring a sitter for our senior cat through Rover, and Casey made the entire experience such a positive one. Casey came to our house a week before our booking for a meet & greet. We could immediately tell she was very competent and professional. Meeting with her ahead of time completely put us at ease. Our cat was clearly comfortable with Casey during the meet & greet. Casey provided wonderful pictures and updates after each of her drop-in visits while we were out of town. She followed our directions down to a tee and was incredibly neat and tidy, going above and beyond by washing our cat's extra dishes, rinsing out the recycling, etc. Our cat generally runs away when anyone (including myself and my husband!) first comes through the door, but Maggy was greeting Casey at the front door when she arrived for her drop-in visits. It was wonderful to know our cat was so comfortable with Casey. We highly recommend Casey and are already looking forward to booking her for future trips!”

About: My name is Tiara and I'm a resident in Mishawaka. I have an amazing Brittany spaniel Bo and a spit fire of a cat, Bruno. I grew up with animals and both of my fur babes are rescues. Some of my favorite things are cooking, reading, swimming, trail walks, singing and of course animals. I know the feeling of guilt/stress all too well when it comes to leaving my pets to someone else's care, and I want to alleviate any of those feelings from you and your furry family members:) I work full time from home and have a flexible schedule. I'm available to accomodate mid work day, in the morning, evenings & weekends. I'll work with you any way possible. Drop ins for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddling, potty time and anything they need to tire them out and keep their mind off of missing their family. I will treat with the same care I would my own babes! Of course feeding, fresh/full water, medication administration & anything else required. If client allows, trips to the dog park or walking trails!
About: I've had pets since I was a kid and I'm a huge animal lover — the go-to person for pet care among family and friends. I currently have three cats of my own, so I'm very comfortable in multi-cat households — reading their individual personalities, sticking to feeding schedules, and keeping stress low when routines change. My biggest test was house-sitting for a neighbor for a full week, managing 4 dogs and 3 cats at once — juggling different feeding times and exercise needs without missing a beat. I'm calm under pressure, detail-oriented with instructions, and treat every home with respect and care as if it were my own. I work full-time (9–5), so I'm available for in-home visits, dog walking, and in-home overnight care before work, after work, and all weekend. I'm also an early riser, so morning visits work well too. I'm flexible and can accommodate most feeding, play, or walk schedules around my job. I live in an apartment set up specifically with cats in mind — window perches, a self-cleaning litter box, and a wall-mounted cat jungle gym with climbing shelves and hideaways. My own cat Milo also enjoys supervised leash walks outside, so I'm comfortable and experienced with that if your cat is leash-trained too. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first, whether that means sticking closely to their routine or just giving them space to settle in. While cats are my specialty, I also have real dog experience — I've taken dogs outside to play in open spaces, and I know how to walk them confidently and keep them engaged. I once house-sat for a neighbor for a full week, caring for 4 dogs and 3 cats together. I'm also not afraid to set boundaries when needed, so your dog gets both playtime and structure.
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs all throughout high school, specifically with families and working couples. I understand the importance pets have in the structure of any family, and it’s my pleasure to offer peace knowing your pet is being taken care of and loved while you’re away. I like meeting pets where they’re at, wether it’s running around a park with energetic Border Collies or lounging around with a chill cat. As a full time college student, I see my pets between classes, take care of them during my study breaks, and even bring them to my favorite study spots! I make sure that all their needs are met through any environment and situation. I never push them past what their owner has made clear they are comfortable with.
“Morgan was great as always! She took great care of our fur babies. She even cleaned out the food dishes when they were empty. Love having her come take care of our babies.”

My absolute favorite thing about Jaclyn is her consistency. I know I can count on her to provide great care to Severus and Draco. She is great with them and takes care to ensure they are safe and loved while I can’t be there with them. She is hands down our only preferred sitter. 💕
Izzy, is wonderful. I have 2 cats and shadow came right to her and begged for belly rubs. Mischief is a lot more shy so it took him more time to show himself. Izzy sent me pictures and updates on how the boys were doing. I highly recommend Izzy for all your pet needs. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Izzy, you were a life saver.
Kennedy was incredibly accommodating and communicative during a week that had some unexpected logistical hurdles. Even with a delay in house access on my end, she made sure my three cats were well-cared for, spending extra time with them once she could get inside. The photo updates were great and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking 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. 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Meet & Greet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
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.
