“Patience took great care of our 5 cats, house and plants for over a week! She was a great communicator and we were updated with frequent texts and pictures. All was well upon our return, and she went above and beyond and left our home spotless. I would highly recommend, and would not hesitate to have her stay again next time we travel.”
“Alicia gave such wonderful care to our three cats while we were traveling. Her consistently timed visits were appreciated, as were the sweet daily pictures of our kitties. I would definitely call her again!”
“Macy was great! My cats were nervous and I appreciated how Macy worked around them to try to get them comfortable with the drop-in visits. Macy provided detailed updates and was very consistent and communicative. Would definitely request visits from her for future trips.”
“Laura was great taking care of my shy guy! She even got him to play with his favorite toys! It was a huge sigh of relief to know that my fur baby was being taken care of while I was out of town!”
“Rebekah was very attentive to our fur-babies’ every need! Very caring, with lots of loving up! Along with Daily reports & pictures being sent to us! Totally put my mind at ease, knowing they were in Excellent hands, in our absence! We Highly Recommend Rebekah as your drop-in Pet/Home Caregiver ?”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life. As a retired police officer, I’m dependable, trustworthy, responsible, and attentive. I’ll treat your pets like family and provide loving, reliable care. I’m fully retired, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and pet care throughout the week, including weekends. As a retired police officer of 31 years, safety, responsibility, and trust are extremely important to me. I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I’m comfortable caring for pets in their home and providing attentive, reliable care.
About: I've never not had a pet. I've had dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters, mice, chickens, turtles, ducks, snakes, and hermit crabs. I'll make sure your pet is happy, healthy, and loved. I love all animals. I have a flexible schedule based upon the needs of my furry clients. I am trying to build my business to full-time pet sitting. I can watch your pet once or on a regular basis. I am willing to care for your pet in your home. I currently have a dog that is unpredictable around other animals, and I will not bring pets around her until I can ensure their safety.
“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with our experience with Zoey! She was very communicative, trustworthy and kind to our kitties. She sent photos everyday, even of our super scaredy cat who hid in tight spots during visits. She made sure everyone was doing well and gave pets to the ones who came out of hiding for attention. Zoey is our first pick for our next pet sitting service need!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I love all animals, big and small. My family often asks me to watch their dogs when they go out of town. I can assist with giving medications, feeding, walks, brushing, etc. I will be working from home starting in November. I will be available any time after 5pm. Once training is done for my new job, I will be available in the morning before 1:00pm most days. Open availability on Thursday’s. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly dog. I am happy to walk your dog or play with them in your yard or house if that’s what you prefer!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals from day 1. From the time I was young, I have been a go to for family, neighbors and friends because they saw the joy and tact I displayed with their animals. I know most pets thrive off of routine so I will do what I can to preserve that for your loved ones while you are away. I still pop in for my own family dogs when needed. I have taken care of dogs from the time they were puppies all the way til the end so I understand the scope of care that comes with all ages. I also aided in the training of our chocolate lab in becoming a certified therapy dog. For those full of energy, I have no problem taking them on multiple mile walks if that is what they benefit from! I work full time but with some flexibility. These can change from day to day but you can count on me being available after 5pm on weekdays. I have every other Tuesday off and I’m off on most weekends. My communication is great and you can easily reach me most times! I know life happens and if you need a last minute check in with your pet because you are stuck 3 hours away, I will do what I can to check on your loved one! I have a large expanse of grass right in front of my home with a park right next to my neighborhood. The neighborhood itself is very pet friendly and safe to walk around in. Pets will be on some sort of leash outside. I have no pets currently so I am comfortable bringing their favorite things over to my place to put them at ease. In your home, I follow your rules and anything I am not comfortable with will be addressed right away.
“Sauddi was absolutely awesome and definitely someone I will be reaching out to next time I need a sitter! She went above and beyond to help my cat settle in and sent pictures and videos throughout the stay of what they were up up and how she was doing.”
About: My name is Holly. I am an animal lover! I grew up on a farm, so I am familiar with care of many types of animals. I have never not had a dog in my life. I have a flexible schedue, own my own home, work remotely full-time , and am very dependable. When house sitting, i do prefer stays less than 4 days, but willing to consider longer stays. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your furry loved ones! Why I love dog sitting I have had at least 1 dog my whole life. I've had breeds ranging from Chihuahuas, to Boxers, to Bull Terriers. Dogs are a blessing and I love having them in my life. I will administer pills and liquid drops, but not shots. I work remotely, so I am fully available to your pet. No children or anyone else in the house, so if your dog or cat needs a relaxing stay, I can provide that.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Franklin
From the moment of booking with Patience to the very end with communication, she was nothing but precise, thorough, and timely with response. She was eager to meet Nelson my cat and agreed to a meet and greet. She took notes, during the meet and greet, which meant a lot and showed that she truly does care and want to do a good job for animals while we are away on vacation. Our cat Nelson can be very shy with new people, but he warmed up to her and while we were away, we got the cutest pictures of our kitty. I would definitely recommend patients to anybody who wants peace of mind, knowing that their cat is taken care of while they’re away.

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.

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.

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 .
