“Alice is a very responsible person, she kept me informed and updated about my cat's status, she socialized my cat and l am sure my cat likes her. I felt peace of mind with her good cares. Thank you so much!”
“Tucker was living his best life. He was relaxed and happy. Loved getting videos and pictures of his stay. Would definitely have Xiaoxiao take care of him again and recommend her to others.”
“She was absolutely wonderful with Hagrid! He’s only 8 weeks old, and she was so sweet, patient, and attentive with him. She sent me lots of photos and videos throughout the visit, which made me feel so comfortable while I was at work. She played with him, fed him, took him out for potty breaks, and even noticed when he was about to have an accident and quickly took him to his potty area. 🥰 Hagrid seemed so happy and comfortable with her. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Scarlett did an amazing job taking care of our old lady Jelly. She followed directions thoroughly, gave her medicine on time and made sure Jelly didn't get lonely while we were gone. She's super nice, communicative and pays attention to the animal's needs. I highly recommend Scarlett (Wanqing) for your pets needs when you need to be away. Will definitely use her again for any upcoming trips!”
About: I have about 10 years of experience of pet care, as well as 15+ years of farm sitting. I own two cats of my own and also have experience administering prescription foods. Pet care is a life style. Through my own experience owning pets, I know the effort and commitment it takes. House sitting will be limited to specific availability depending on my own commitments. For my offered services, my goal is to not disrupt the already established flow. I plan to learn and adapt to the care and safety guidelines of each house.
“Jue took amazing care of our cats while we were away. Communication was quick and consistent, and we loved getting thoughtful updates plus pictures and videos. Best of all, we came home to calm, happy cats — always the best sign. Highly recommend and we’ll absolutely use her again.”
“Hayley was an excellent sitter for my cat! I’m always nervous when I’m away, but Hayley’s communication and photo updates really put my anxiety at ease. She was punctual, clean, and did a great job administering my cat’s medicine. She used the remaining appointment time to play with my cat, so she was nice and tuckered out by the time I got home. I would 100% recommend her services!”
About: I'm a passionate and experienced dog sitter, dedicated to providing exceptional care for your furry family members. With a genuine love for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your beloved pets. From long walks in the park to cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my services to meet the individual needs of each dog. I always follow dietary restrictions and provide plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. You can trust me to treat your dogs as if they were my own, giving them the love and attention they deserve while you're away. I can provide up to 3 walks/potty breaks a day and love spending time with dogs. I work full time, but can make be flexible for my clients I prefer to know the dog’s routine, food preferences, allergy information, vet information, and every little quirk to make sure the stay is comfortable for all parties
“Anna is a great cat/house sitter and I would highly. Recommend her. I have a 21 year old senior cat with several medical needs. Anna stayed overnight and gave oral medication to my cat who is feisty with strangers. Anna is responsible, dependable and has excellent communication skills. She texted me with questions on issues that we had not covered and I appreciated that. She has high integrity and I felt that I could trust her in my home and with my cat.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since childhood and would love to care for your pets! I have dog sat for rover and other connections. I am most familiar and experienced with any bulldog/bully breeds. So if you are a bulldog/bully owner and have been looking for someone who knows their needs, feel free to contact me! I have owned three English Bulldogs, one French Bulldog, and one cat in my life. I currently have one English Bulldog, one French Bulldog and a cat right now though (two of my dogs have passed). Although I have only owned bulldog breeds, I am still comfortable and have experience with caring for other breeds as well from my past dog sitting clients. Ive dog sat both small and larger breeds! I’ve also just been around many dogs in life, like my friend’s and family’s dogs. I have a job right now so my availability for pet care is limited/part time. Although it does depend on the week. If I know far enough in advance I am able to make things work out with home sitting for multiple days. But walks and day visits are easier for me to do last minute. I prefer to watch your pets in your home. I can possibly watch smaller pets at my house though. I would make sure your pets are always safe by having all the dogs closed and locked. If you have a fenced yard then I would make sure that is always locked as well. But if I do let them out in the fenced yard, I will still be outside with them just incase. Making sure the dogs won’t escape is super important for their safety! I would also keep toxic foods and dangerous items out of reach for your pets.
About: I’ve always had animals as a part of my life since I was a child. I grew up with a high energy dog (Sheppard/terrier mix) and currently dog sit for 3 dogs in my family (Husky, cocker spaniel and terrier mix). I also have had a Bengal cat for the past 3 years that I love to take on outdoor adventures and on walks with the dogs. I know the importance of keeping your pets happy and well exercised! I work remotely and decided to join rover because I love animals and want to spend more time with them because I cannot currently adopt any more myself. I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. I am looking to care for pets within close vicinity to me that I can care for on weekdays and some weekends when I am free. I treat all pets as if they are my own and will follow the owner’s instructions on how they would like me to care for their pets. You can expect photo updates each time I check on them if you wish.
About: I have pet sitted for many of my friends and family. I love to play and give affectionate to our canine friends. I can give dogs their needed medication and bathe them if necessary. I am available Saturday evenings. My free days are usually Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. My schedule can be flexible depending on your times needed to watch your pets. I have a fenced dog park in my complex. I am able to crate dogs if necessary. I will adhere to any instructions you may have when I come to your home to check in on your animals.
“Sarah was awesome! Got some amazing photos of our precious kitty! Affordable, on time, and did an amazing job! 5/5 will certainly hire again! Thanks, Sarah, for all your help!”
“Dan is delightful! Our kitties are pretty shy but they warmed to him quickly. Dan's daily messages were helpful, informative, and charmingly funny. We would not hesitate to work with Dan again!”
About: Caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra patience—whether it’s for training, medication, or just comfort. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they’re not only cared for, but also feel happy and at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life—I truly enjoy spending time with animals. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to offer consistent, attentive care throughout the week. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I make time every day to give pets the love, attention, and routine they thrive on. I’m happy to adjust my routine to match your pet’s needs and make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, love, and attention. I follow your instructions carefully—sticking to routines, respecting boundaries, and making sure pets feel secure. I build trust by showing up consistently, staying communicative, and treating every animal with patience and care, just like I would with my own.
About: Ive grown up around pets and love being around dogs, i spend a lot of time around my boyfriends 3. I give them walks attention and feeding. Being around them a lot has made me super comfortable caring for different energy levels and personality. Id be happy to give the same attention and care to your pets. I have plenty of free time to care for your pets, weekdays are good to go right now as well as weekends occasionally, would love to care for your pet :) I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide love and attention, and make sure they always have fresh food, water, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Newcastle
Chad provided great care for our elderly cat who needed a couple meds and feeding twice daily. He was completely reliable in his visits and when we returned, all was well organized as when we left and clean in our pet’s area and with his food. It was a great relief to us that we could rely on Chad while we were away and that he was quite capable of caring for our sometimes picky cat!
Zheru is the BEST sitter I could ask for! She is so loving, caring and detail-oriented. She took intensive notes during meet & greet, and sticked to my instructions and preferences during every visit. She sent tons of photos and videos everyday, provided detailed notes, and even vacuumed the floor and cleaned our kitchen sink and gently wiped away the discharge around Tutu’s butt without being asked to do so. Tutu is usually a shy baby but he absolutely loves her! I’m so reassured to leave my cat with Zheru, and I will absolutely invite her over next time when I’m out of town!
We’re not sure where to start. Di was such a great rover. She was very flexible with the meet and great before our trip, and also very communicative. Di not only listened to our instructions and requests, we noticed that she had stayed a little longer than the time requested to hangout with our little furballs. Di, thank you so much for taking care of our cats. And thank you so much for giving our cats a gift too! We will be reaching out in the future for other visits!
Hayley is an exceptional pet sitter who combines professionalism with genuine compassion for animals. Her attention to detail and proactive communication provide great peace of mind whenever I'm away. She not only ensures that Zoe and Gabby are well cared for, but also spends time engaging and playing with them. Their affection for her is obvious, and they always seem happy after her visits. I have hired Hayley multiple times and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Hayley, for taking such wonderful care of Zoe and Gabby!
I can’t recommend Kseniia enough! I had an extend vacation planned and was really worried about my kitty while I was away. She gave thorough updates, cared for her like her own and had no problems giving my senior kitty the daily medication she requires. My daily photo updates really put me at ease and I came home to a happy and healthy kitty.
Heather did an awesome job checking in on our cats while we were gone. I accidentally had a package delivered that I wasn't expecting and she even brought it inside for us before I knew it was there! I will definitely book her again. She really took the time to help our cats feel cared for while we were away.
Nicole took great care of my cat for drop in visits while I away for 2 weeks. She was attentive, quick to communicate, and thorough. There were some unexpected house-related issues that came up and Nicole even went the extra step to make sure my cat was safe. Thank you Nicole!
Malia provided our two kitties with tons of love and playtime while we were on vacation, and followed all of our care instructions perfectly! It was a huge relief getting several pictures each time she visited for breakfast and dinner, seeing how well they were doing. I would happily trust her to take the best care of them in future!
We had a wonderful experience with Sage. Very communicative and caring, with extra time spent with our cat when she wasn’t behaving well. Sage also cleaned up after her, which we really appreciated. We felt our cat was in great hands and would definitely recommend Sage!
Jue is the best cat sitter anyone can ask for. First and formost, she studys animal behavior in school so she understands cats very well! . Second, She spent an hour before the first visit to get to know my place and my two cats, and took down a long list of notes, that shows how much ownership she had for this task. Third, she is a GREAT communicator! She responds to messages/requests very quickly, and will send pictures/videos and detailed visit cards so you know 100% your cats are doing well. Last thing, she really pays attention to details, and will help you with things that you cascually missed. In my case I missed cleaning the water fountain. Even though cleaning water fountain was not in the request, she noticed the bugs flying around she just took care of it. 10/10 recommended!

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 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.

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 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.
