“She was very kind and knowledgeable! Was understanding of my forever changing schedule and made me feel safe leaving my cat with her! Hope to have her again if I need another pet sitter”
About: I can walk your pet, bathe your pet if needed, and also pet sit if you want me to. Just ask me, the worst I can do is say no. I’m available most days for pet care, I do work between 8-5pm Monday to Friday, but other than that I’m available whenever you need me. I make sure that all my animals have what they need at all times, as well as my clients pets, if they need/want it they will have it.
“Nafawna is great at what she does! We left for 9 days and were completely at ease that the pets were not only receiving the care they needed, but the attention and love as well. She gives in depth summaries of visits and sends a ton of photos! Thanks, Nafawna!!”
About: I’m a college graduate. My major was in animal assisted therapy. I am cpr certified. I’m all about what is best for the animal. I love animals that is why I choose this profession.

“Excellent experience. Gone four days; Jacob dropped in three times a day and gave our pooch a good walk (sometimes a really long one which was awesome), as well as feeding him on schedule. Jacob was reliable, on time, and sent great reports.”
About: I’ve had many experiences pet sitting. I’ve watched anything from cats and dogs to farm animals! I often pet sit for my family members and neighbors. I have no problem cleaning up litter boxes, brushing, and even giving medications if needed! I’m currently in college and working part time. Right now i’m mostly available Tuesdays and Thursdays after 4. Summer is coming up so my availability will open up! I have no issue cleaning up after the pet and cleaning litter boxes. I can also ensure they have fresh water and if needed food at my visits.
About: “Dog” was my first word! I’ve had dogs since I was born, including HIGH ENERGY huskies. As a Physical Therapy student, I have interest in helping SPECIAL NEEDS dogs. My last husky had an arm injury and took meds, so I have experience! Open to learning injections and first aid as needed. Human CPR/first aid certified. I have experience with BIG dogs and puppies, dogs that pull, anxious doggies, and walking multiple dogs at the same time. Would be happy to help care for any injured or special needs dogs! I’m in graduate school, but have availability in the mornings and evenings daily, along with generally free weekends. I have a set schedule so know exactly what to expect week-to-week! I am especially interested in big, high energy, or special needs dogs. I will treat your doggies like they are my own! I have such a love for every living thing and want to help keep local pups happy and safe.
“Stefania took great care of our cat and dog while we were away. Our dog is usually very shy, but by day 3, she was playing and wanting belly rubs, which Stefania took the time to give her. I'd highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of and worked with a variety of animals since I was a kid. I grew up with dogs and cats as well as farm animals. I raised horse, pigs, and goats for 4-H in my hometown. In high school, I volunteered at my local pet shelter, working with cats and dogs. I also began pet sitting in high school and loved the experiences I had getting to know clients and their amazing pets. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule. I am a university student living in Athens over the summer. I am willing to fulfill your and your pets’ needs any way I can. If you have any specific questions just ask! I am an active individual who loves walking and playing with dogs. I have reliable transportation and respond quickly to messages. I will work with you to provide the best care and attention for your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little kid and just love animals beyond belief, i was the neighborhood pet watchers when anyone would go out of town and took care of my own dogs as well as my grandparents 3 I work from 6:30-5:30 on the weekends but willing to work around a schedule if need be. I’m very flexible and willing to converse with anyone that needs help I will treat your home and pets with respect and care like they were my own.

About: I've had pets basically my whole life. I grew up with inside and outside dogs, as well as a farm cat that I took care of regularly. I've been through obedience training with both of my dogs now, and we walk and play every day! I work from 8:00~2:00 weekdays. I take my own dogs on walks every day. I have plenty of time to take care of your pets if you're ever in need of assistance! I have two inside dogs at my house. When I bought the house, I had a fence put in and extended the yard so they can be outside and play safely, whenever they want. We go on long and short walks daily. Animals deserve the same care and respect that people do, and I treat my animals, and any other I know, like friends! Treat them right and they'll be great!
“mackenzie was an amazing sitter for my cat! my kitty is notoriously shy and aggressive around people but by the end of our trip mackenzie was cookie’s new friend! very diligent with photos and updates. highly recommend!”
About: I was born into an animal-loving family - in fact, my very earliest memories all seem to center around my family's cats, dogs, and horses, and I helped to feed and care for them from childhood. I'm a middle-aged lady and I've had pets my whole life, so when I say I've got experience you know I'm not messing around! Friends and family trust me to take care of their pets when they're away, but I've even professionally cared for the animals at a natural history museum. (Did you know there is such a thing as monkey chow? And that turtles love it? It's true!) I've looked after dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, sizes from 10 to 100+ lbs, mutts to pedigreed show dogs, special diets and medication, even disabled dogs. I guess it goes without saying I'm here because I love and have a strong rapport with animals, but people tell me their animals love me too. I know how important it is to have a sitter you and your pet can trust and that's who I strive to be. I'm currently available for drop-ins and walkies late morning through evening every day, including holidays. I work from home and my schedule is flexible, so I can give your pet(s) the time they need! (Please note I can't board pets or stay overnight with yours, due to space constraints and my own dogs' care needs.) As a pet parent myself, I know how stressful it can be to leave them. Rest assured your pet's safety and comfort are paramount. You show me your routine, and I will follow it to the letter to ensure as much consistency as possible for your pet. I'll send pics and updates every visit.
About: I have taken care of many different pets for as long as I can remember! My love for caring for animals started when I was 12 years old and taking care of my own five ferrets. It wasn't long after that when both of my parents had started bragging about my consistency and dedication when it came to taking care of pets to my family and their friends. From that point on I have gotten calls from my aunts, uncles, and family friends to care for their furry friends while away on vacations and business trips. This has made me confident enough to want to help other families take care of their animals when needed too! :) I currently go to college at Ohio University and would only be available to work on my school breaks starting every August-May. However, my schedule over the summer is pretty open and I would love to spend as much time needed with your fur babies! With any instructions given I am sure to not skip one step! I will give your pet all the attention and cuddles necessary. Due to me having a dog who doesn't get along with new dogs, I would care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. I am also willing to stay overnight if needed when I am available to do so.
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs of all breeds. I love all animals and giving care to them. I can provide baths, feedings and walks along with play time! I will provide quality care for your fur baby! :) I only work part time and hope to fill my free time with taking care of animals because I enjoy it very much! I am free early mornings and evenings. I absolutely adore getting to know my client’s dogs/cats! I make sure to give all animals love and attention while in my care. Additionally, I ensure that I am prepared and study up on any specific needs that your fur baby may require. Not all dogs and cats are the same and their unique personalities are what make them so wonderful!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
