“Zoila took on our cat sitting booking on fairly short notice and it went perfectly! She was a great communicator and made sure to clarify any questions she had about the cat's feeding schedule. We also had a few random mishaps around the apartment that she very kindly handled for us so we weren't stressed out about it while we were out of town . I would highly recommend her!”
“Min was wonderful and gave us peace of mind while we were away from our kitties! She was very communicative and provided us with pictures, videos, and updates on food/medicine/water/litter. The cats seemed to love her, and we will absolutely reach out again in the future 😊”
“Kimberly did an amazing job with Leo. He withdrew when we left, but Kimberly was able to bond with him. She got him to let her give him lots of rubs and cuddles. I loved getting the photos. It was obvious that she cared for him. Leo was well taken care of, and that gave us such peace of mind. I hope Kimberly will be available when we travel again.”
“Nicole was awesome to work with! She left detailed notes in the pet updates and was always on time with visits. A great communicator and someone we'll definitely use again in the future!”
“Ashley truly goes above and beyond for your pets and your home. I know that when we are out of town everyone will be well cared for during the drop-in visits! She is professional, responsive, and extremely detailed.”
“Marissa is our go to cat sitter! Rover was intimidating with all the “dog people…” I wasn’t sure if we’d find someone happy to watch our cats! But, Marissa clearly cares for them. She takes the time not just to feed them and check on them but pet and play with them which gives me a lot of peace of mind when we’re out of town. 10/10 recommend!”
“I trust Taylor and when we travel it's an easy decision to book her through Rover. She makes it easy for us and we know our sweet cat is going to be looked after and cared for until we get back. I especially love the little notes and photos on the daily report cards! :)”
About: My family and I have always cared for animals. I’ve raised cats, dogs, and bunnies who all lived in home. I’ve fostered shelter dogs and found homes for them. I’ve trained puppies on simple commands and leash walking. I have very open and flexible availability. Monday: Open availability Tuesday: Open availability Wednesday: Available before 12pm Thursday: Available after 6pm Friday: Available after 6pm Saturday: Available before 12pm I am an early bird and I also end my day late. I communicate exceptionally well with many photos. I plan on doing more in home visits/ walks for pets instead of in my home. Special cases I can watch in my home, I have a cozy house with a large yard in the suburbs near schools with a lot of parks and trails. I have my own vehicle and am happy to drive.
About: I’ve been around dogs for basically my whole life, they’ve always been a big part of my world. Because of that, caring for animals feels very natural to me. I’ve helped take care of pets for friends, family, neighbors, and pretty much anyone who needed an extra hand. I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just giving them love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone, and I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and genuinely caring. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and keeping a structured schedule. I’m used to organizing my day around responsibilities, so things like walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are easy for me to stay consistent with. I genuinely like being around animals, so caring for them never feels like a task it’s something I actually enjoy. My routine and flexibility allow me to give pets the attention, patience, and care they need throughout the day. When I care for pets, I focus on making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I pay close attention to their routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I try to adjust my approach to what makes them feel most at ease. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is always to make sure both the pets and their owners feel happy and stress-free.
“So grateful I found Joe! My new cat had never been left alone and I refused to board him. I was nervous and wasn’t sure how’d he handle another big change in schedule so soon. Joe made me far more comfortable, he was always on time, my cat even went to the front door around the time Joe would come so he was obviously comfortable as well. I will absolutely be asking him back when needed.”
“We had our cat boarded with Madison and family. They took wonderful care of him, spent timer with him and sent us pictures and updates during our vacation. We highly recommend Madison and will certainly use her as a sitter again.”
“Kayla was so sweet and caring when checking on our senior cat while we were away. Our cat immediately loved getting head scratches and visiting with Kayla. Her love of animals is obvious and we would use Kayla again for pet sitting. Thank you!”
“Nithimas was an amazing pet sitter for our cat Rocky (our baby boy)! She made sure he was fed, ate, clean water and litter. And best of all she played with him, which meant a lot to us because he never felt alone. Thank you so much!! We will definitely request you again when we go on vacation. ❤️ Olga and Brandon”
About: I’m a dog mom and know how important an attentive and loving dog sitter is. I’d love to help you take care of your pets! My children are grown and I have a flexible schedule. I would love care for your pets, just let me know their schedule and I can accommodate. I’m a true dog mom. My dogs are quite spoiled and well-loved! I provide a safe, patient, calm, and loving environment while you’re away.
“So thankful for Jane for loving on our kitties while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday! She was awesome with communicating about times, sending pictures of our babies, and giving them some quality playtime.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Murphy
Eloise was excellent! She took great care of my cat, followed my requested instructions, and was very accommodating when coordinating meet and greets and key exchanges. She was very friendly both to me and my cat, overall great service.I will definitely be booking again.
Sophia was super nice and easy to communicate with, due to last minute changes of plans I was unable to schedule a visit with her before I met (though she did offer). I sent her some details about how to navigate getting to the residence and care instructions for my cat and she took great care of her and sent me lots of photos. Would recommend scheduling her in the future for myself and others.
Zoila took on our cat sitting booking on fairly short notice and it went perfectly! She was a great communicator and made sure to clarify any questions she had about the cat's feeding schedule. We also had a few random mishaps around the apartment that she very kindly handled for us so we weren't stressed out about it while we were out of town . I would highly recommend her!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
