“Melody was great! We needed a sitter last minute and she came through big time. She was super sweet with the cats and very reliable. Would definitely use her again!”
“Stephanie did an awesome job watching our 3 cats while we were away for our wedding weekend! We knew they were in good hands and her detailed summaries and photos let us be able to be fully present here and enjoy our weekend! Thank you so much!”
About: I have five years of experience caring for my own dog and cat, so I understand the daily dedication pets need. I am patient, observant, and great with shy or quiet animals. I also have experience assisting my cat through two pregnancies, creating a safe birthing space, and helping raise the kittens. Im also fully comfortable administering medication if your pet requires it! Pet care is my main priority. I am completely free all day Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and all weekend. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I won’t be available for house sits due to my school life but am available for drops-in and dog walking! When I visit your home, I focus entirely on keeping your pets happy, safe, and on their normal routine. I make sure they get plenty of attention, fresh water, food on time, and a good walk or playtime so they feel comfortable while you are away
About: Hey, I’m Doug. I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine it any other way. I’ve owned and loved several different breeds over the years, and right now I share my home with a big, lovable German Shepherd and a 16 year old calico cat who has a lot of sass and attitude. I’m also a dad of two, and while my kids are in school I’m looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love being outside, going on long walks, throwing the ball, and ending the day with plenty of snuggles. I’m very responsible and take pet care seriously, but I also try to keep things easy and fun. I’ll always keep you in the loop with updates and photos so you know your pet is happy, safe, and getting lots of attention. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like they’re part of the family, I’d love to help out. I’m primarily available on weekdays between 9:00 am and 6:00 pm, which lines up well with mid day check ins, drop ins, and visits while you’re at work. I’m also available some evenings, depending on the day. I can probably work with your schedule, just message me! I’m a parent of two, so I focus on providing reliable care during school hours and select evenings when I can give your pet my full attention. If you have a schedule question or a special request, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to talk through what might work best. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I know how important familiarity is, especially when their people are away. I follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, medication, litter box care, playtime, and any little quirks your pet might have. I always make sure your home is left just as I found it. Food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes are scooped, and I do a quick check to make sure everything looks safe and secure before I leave. I also spend time with your pet based on what they’re comfortable with, whether that’s playtime, gentle attention, or just calm company. I’ll keep you updated with notes and photos so you know how things are going and can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel confident that both your pet and your home are being well cared for.
“Absolutely the best! Claire is consistent, reliable, and has great communication. Even though our boys (cats) are skittish and spend most of their time hiding, she is committed to their wellbeing and earning their trust. Will definitely book Claire to watch our cats again for our next vacation!”
About: Currently working as a Veterinarian Assistant. Have a Bachelors Degree in Animal Science. Been in the animal science field for 12yrs. Working in my passion everyday and loving what I do! Currently work 4/5days out the week at a Vet Hospital. Also work PRN at the ER (for animals) at nights, when they’re in need. After years of experience and some research; I’ve come to the conclusion that animals go through less stress when they are watched in their own homes. Rather than being taken out of there safe space and brought to a new environment they are not familiar with.
“Chelsea was absolutely amazing! She was able to help me out very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She arrived within the two-hour window I had booked and was incredibly communicative the entire time. She sent lots of pictures and detailed updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Yui and Yomi were clearly well cared for and happy. I’m super grateful to have found someone I can trust, and I will definitely be booking with Chelsea again. Highly recommend!”
“Salina was super considerate of my cats. She communicated well and my cats were so comfortable with her !! Will definitely work w Salina in the future !”
“She was amazing with my cat Piper for almost 2 weeks while we were in Colorado and Texas. I got daily updates on her behavior and pics. She made time for me to drop off and pick Piper up. Once we picked her up, all of her equipment, it was a lot bc I'm extra with my cat, was cleaned and packed up. I would definitely recommend and I would use again.”
“Jordan was amazing! She was very friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond. She always communicated with me, and my cat loved being around her. I would 100% recommend her and will definitely be booking again!”
“Ashley was amazing. I was so nervous leaving my pup for the first time and she really put me at ease. She kept me updated and sent me pictures of his sweet face. I’ve already booked her again!”
About: I personally grew up with two cats, but I've dog sat for friends many times! I'll make sure your furry friends are well fed, watered, and happy 😊 I have a unique schedule, I'm busy from 7-10pm most nights, and flexible during the day; but i'll do my best to communicate to make sure it all works out! I am more than happy to talk about what areas pets should or should not be around; or other things that are off limits, and which commands or phrases can be used.
“Nicole was awesome! First time using Rover so we were a little nervous initially but she had us at ease with the great communication and abundance of photos of our sweet girl while we were away. Would definitely ask her to watch any of our animals again in the future :)”

Shin did a great job. My cats are all shy babies. Two hid the entire time she was there. But they came out the rest of the time, so they didnt feel that threatened. My boy Milano, usually super shy, sermed to really like her. One cat vomited on the couch and Shin cleaned it up. She took better pictures than I do! Thank you Shin.
I was able to enjoy my first vacation in years because I was so comfortable with Yasmein taking care of my babies. I have a senior pup 14 a 5 yo pup and a kitty. I got updates and pictures with each visit. she went above and beyond when my pups wouldn’t eat their food initially. She made them treats and took them for rides always before making sure it was ok with me. I will definitely be using her again.
We had a great experience with Sara. She was dependable, responsive and took excellent care of our pets while we were away! Communication was great- which gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were happy! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter

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.
