“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

“Nicole was your quintessential sitter who had all of the tools with which to entice our pet to interact and play; however our little guy has been so shy of late that we felt sorry for Nicole. She was spot on everyday with our instructions for "care and feeding" but he just would not budge from his hiding spots. Thank you Nicole for sending photos each visit even if they were from under the davenport! We truly had no worries while away from home knowing that your professionalism and personal touch were present.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Bern
Jolynn took wonderful care of Simon while I was away at a conference! She spent time playing with him and sent me great pictures so I could see how he was doing while I was gone. She was respectful of my home, followed all of my instructions for Simon’s care, and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I will definitely call on Jolynn again the next time I need a sitter for Simon. Highly recommend!

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.

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 .
