“Thank you so much for taking care of my cats while I was away. I truly appreciate your time and help, and overall I was very happy knowing they had someone looking after them. Wishing you nothing but happiness and all the best in life. Take care”
“Catrina was great! She did a week of drop-in visits for our cats, taking care of feeding, refreshing water, and litter cleaning. Our cats are shy, often never seen by cat feeders. As we had asked, Catrina did not invade their hiding places, but she was able to coax one to approach her -- something that we did not expect -- which gave us peace of mind knowing that they had felt safe with Catrina while we were away.”
“This was our first time vacationing as new cat owners of a 1 year old kitten. We liked having someone come to the house, multiple times a day, to ensure that he was safe and fed. After reading numerous reviews for local providers we interviewed a few, and decided on Hon. Hon was professional and courteous, he was kind and gentle meeting our cat Jasper, and we felt comfortable with providing him access to our home and entrusting him with him. Throughout the trip Hon followed our instructions and provided care and attention to Jasper, who was happy and healthy when we returned. We would highly recommend him to anyone else local who wants to ensure their cat is monitored and cared for in their absence.”
“Nina was very easy to work with. We are thankful of her availability and understanding. She took photos and gave us updates. Will definitely have her take care of our babies in the future again.”
“Pam has been absolutely wonderful with our pugs, Walter and Arthur! The communication was prompt and friendly, with fun updates and cute photos that brightens our day. It's such a relief knowing our boys are in good hands. Highly recommend Pam to any pet parent looking for reliable, loving care!”
“Sha provided fantastic care. She is extremely reliable, responds very aptly to any updates, and pays close attention to detail by following all of my specific instructions carefully. I would gladly book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“Megan is a great communicator and made our dogs (and us) very happy! She showed up on exactly time and followed our directions to the tee. We will definitely hire her again!”
“Yasmine took care of our three cats while we were away. All the daily cat care routines were done well. What’s very heartening- out of all different pet sitters we had, Yasmine manages to take the best pictures! This really helps as we miss our cats when we are away.”
“My kitty was very happy when Megan came. She kept us update with pictures and messages. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our little guy was being taken care of.”
“Keiko is amazing! She took such great care of my 3 kitties and did a wonderful job overall. She was extremely patient with my cats, took wonderful photos, and had great communication during and after each visit! She made me feel very comfortable leaving my cats in her care while I was away. I truly appreciated her going above and beyond and all of her help. Thank you Keiko!”
About: I'm a very caring animal lover and have been house and dog sitting for years. I've had my dog since she was a puppy so I have the experience to care for dogs of all ages. My dog is extremely active so I dont have any problem keeping up with pets of any activity level. I've been to training with my dog and am able to use the skills I've learned with my dog to any pet. I've dog sat for multiple dogs at once with different health issues and dietary restrictions. I'm very meticulous when it comes to your pet's health including medication regimens and special dietary needs. I treat all animals as if they were my own. My main goal while caring for your pet is to keep your pet safe, happy and healthy. I'm currently traveling to care for my mom in a different state. I do my best to update my rover calendar to reflect my availability in a timely manner. When I'm in New Jersey Rover is my main focus. My goal is to provide your pet with the same enviroment they would recieve at home. We are away from main roads and have access to a fenced dog park.
“Took care of my kitty like her own. Even brought her a scratching pad. The pictures that were taken were beautiful and made me feel good while on vacation knowing my kitty was in good hands. A++”
“Xingcheng took wonderful care of my cat for a whole month, and I couldn’t be happier! She was so patient and loving — the photos and videos she sent showed my cat was calm and comfortable the entire time. Feeding, litter box, daily routine — all handled perfectly without me having to worry. She’s incredibly responsible and communicated promptly whenever anything came up. It really felt like she treated my cat as her own. Highly recommend Xingcheng — I’ll definitely book her again!”
“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”
About: I previously worked at Best Friends Pet Care. I worked there for two and a half years! I specialized there as a tiny camp counselor where I monitored a group of small to medium sized dogs for a few hours. I have experience handling, playing with and taking care of dogs from 2lbs to 150lbs, i’ve seen it all! I’ve also dealt with dogs of many ages from puppies to seniors. I have two family dogs of my own and currently have a cat with my partner and am my happiest when caring for fuzzy friends! I’m used to having an animal around 24/7 and wouldn’t have it any other way. I am currently in between jobs after a move. I am now available Monday- Friday anywhere from 10am - 5pm! I have lots of time to be with your fur baby. I can communicate with you on whatever you need for your pets! Whether that involves walks/ medication/ crates/ play time etc. I am open to hearing your dog’s personal needs and helping how I can!
“Abigail was patient with my stubborn and mischievous collie, who is 60 lbs and not the easiest to manage. My collie was relaxed and content after her visits. I also left a long list of instructions, which were followed to the letter. That shows good and trustworthy work. Thank you, Abigail!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Monmouth Junction
Wonderful experience as always. Very attentive and left great notes to ease our anxiety about leaving our fur babies. Took lots of photos and when our hider decided to disappear from view for a few days she asked where to look to ensure she was still healthy and fine. Once again another great service by Christine.
Brooke was thorough, attentive, and dependable. She visited our two cats twice each day for a week, giving injectable insulin to our one diabetic cat at each visit. Our other cat is very shy and hides but Brooke always located her (usually finding her under a bed!) to make sure she was okay. Would definitely hire Brooke again!
Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!

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 .

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.
