“Kisha was our first cat sitter and she set the bar high! She was the gold standard for someone we wanted to take care of our cats! Kept us updated with photos and daily ongoings. Our cats were fed, happy, and clean!”
“Penny did an exceptional job caring for our two cats during our 2.5‑week international trip. She was reliable, easy to reach, and provided daily messages with photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We had a minor hiccup with our automated litter box being unplugged before we left (100% our fault), and Penny helped us resolve it quickly and smoothly. Our cats were relaxed and happy when we returned, which speaks to the attentive care she provided. Thank you so much, Penny!”
“Skylar took excellent care of my cat, Freya! Communication was wonderful throughout my trip, and knowing Freya was in such caring hands gave me so much peace of mind. I recommend Skylar 1000% and would absolutely book with her again. Thank you for taking such great care of my girl! 💕”
“Ryo did a great job for our 10 night house/cat-sit. Great communication, sent plenty of pictures, and I know that our three shy cats were definitely building that comfort and familiarity you all hope for in a house or pet sitter. Only feedback is the water bowls needed one last top-up, but not the end of the world. Overall Ryo was super respectful of our space, and left everything in its place. You'll be our first choice for future cat and house sitting needs if you're interested Ryo, that's for sure! Thanks again so much.”
“Jenniffer went above and beyond to make sure that Zoey was well cared for and had time to enjoy outside and take care of business :) She had great contact with us throughout the weekend and allowed us to enjoy our family get away knowing that Zoey was in GREAT hands - highly recommend Jenniffer !!!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have been caring for the animals of friends and family for many years. I have experience caring for puppies and older dogs. I understand how hard it is to leave the furry member of the family to someone else’s care so I am dedicated to treating them as my own. I am currently a PhD student so I have many flexible hours throughout the day. With access to a car, I can reliably drop in and walk animals several times a day if needed. I can come to the home to care for and walk pets as needed. I know how to walk dogs of many sizes safely and have even leash trained my cat. Pets have different care needs and I am well equipped to adapt to each pet.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life from frenchies to shelties. I’ve worked in a dog store for over a year. Let me give you peace of mind while you’re away. On a weekly basis I have a flexible schedule that will allow for me drop by to check in and love on your babies. I work from home on most Wednesdays which allows me easy access to swing by. I will always make sure to give your pet lots of love and attention just like I would my own. Making sure to go the extra mile to let you know that I’m there to care in the ways you need!
About: Hello, I currently am a veterinary assistant professionally. I have experience with scared dogs and cats from my time working in the animal shelter and animal hospital. As well as many types of dog and feline medications and injections, since I work as a veterinary assistant and have been since 2023. I have pets of my own and I would love to cater to your furry family! I work 30 hours a week and I have plenty time for your furry friends, their overall well being and task that may come with that. I am very flexible to fitting your normal schedule to keep your pets as comfortable as possible. I will make sure your pets are taken out frequently and are able to get lots of energy out and love.

About: I’m the person people call when they need someone they can genuinely trust with their fur babies and their homes. I’ve cared for animals for 20 years and for the past 6 years I’ve built a loyal group of repeat clients right here in my community. I’m dependable, flexible with last-minute needs, and comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet—and your home—with someone, and I don’t take that lightly. Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet gets my full attention. My schedule is flexible, and I'm available for overnight stays, weekends, and holidays. I keep pets on their normal feeding, walk, and medication routines, and I send photo updates throughout the day so you always know how they're doing. I know it’s a big deal to trust someone in your home, so I always communicate clearly, follow your instructions, and treat your space with total respect.
About: Hi, I’m Renée! Caring for animals is my passion, and with almost a decade of experience—from volunteering at shelters to pet sitting—I know how to make every pet feel cherished. I offer daily updates via text or FaceTime, and I’m happy to take your dog to the park if allowed. Whether it’s special diets, medications, or extra cuddles, I’ll handle it all. In my home (with a big backyard), your pet will get personalized care—playtime, peaceful walks, or cozy moments. I’d be honored to care for them like my own! I have a very friendly cat who loves other animals, but if your pet needs a cat-free space, I can easily ensure my cat stays elsewhere during their visit. Animals are my devotion, and I’d love the chance to care for your pet like one of my own. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I have references available and can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I don’t really have much of a schedule because I work at home, occasionally I’ll go to the gym once or twice, or get groceries. I take great pride in caring for animals and ensuring they feel loved and cherished. As a volunteer at the Humane Society, I’ve gained valuable experience working with pets of all kinds. I’ll treat your furry friend like royalty—just as I do my own—ensuring they feel like the king or queen they truly are. You can count on me to provide attentive, loving care that will make their time with me enjoyable and stress-free.

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Jen was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly went above and beyond to make sure our pets were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of while we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made being away from home a lot easier!
Ryan was so helpful with our dog and two cats. Our regular pet sitter had to cancel last minute and Ryan really stepped up and helped us out so much. He even gave our cat medicine so he could feel his best while we’re gone. We will definitely be rebooking with Ryan sometime soon!

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 .
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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
