“Lydia was a fantastic cat sitter for our two cats while we were traveling. She was punctual, cared for them as instructed and even our cat that is wary of strangers warmed right up to her. Would recommend Lydia for your pet sitting needs.”
“Leslie was everything that I could’ve hoped for in a pet sitter. My people shy kitty was very comfortable around her and so was I. I now feel like I don’t have to worry and wonder if friends can help me out when I travel. I can’t believe how easy this was and now I wonder what took me so long.”
“Julia was amazing as always! Great notes on how our Bingo was doing and helped keep the plants alive and packages brought in through the time we were away as an added bonus. So appreciative!”
“Absolutely delighted with James’ calm, reliable and kind care for a kitty who can register as a bit resentful over having been left behind. He has been unphased by Roxanne’s cool reception, and, after three visits, has earned her (and my) high regard and sincere trust. Grateful for James’ resourcefulness and respect for Roxanne’s deceptively independent spirit - she (and I) appreciate that he treats her as a kitty who deserves the very best care. Highly, highly recommend this talented cat-whisperer!”
“Michela is an absolutely amazing with my 2 cats and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She took her time with one in particular who is really shy & timid. By the end of the visit, Michela had won her over. She definitely has my fur babies best interest at heart while using her instincts. My cats fell in love with her by the end.”
“Sofia was amazing! My kitties were obviously happy when we came home but they didn’t seem like they had anxiety like they usually do. She was so communicative and sent loads of pictures everyday and it made me feel so calm and comfortable while we were gone. I would definitely rebook her and recommend her to anyone!”
“Laurie was wonderful! We booked her for a few days worth of drop-in visits with our 1 year old dog Luna (40-lb border collie mix). We've only had Luna for 4 months (rescue) and she is incredibly timid and loud around strangers in the house. We were worried going into the weekend that we might even have to cancel our trip because Luna has been unmanageable by just about everyone we've tried to get to walk her. And even with us, on walks she is easily distracted and will try to chase everything from squirrels to grasshoppers. It can be a challenge for non-family to even get close enough to get a leash on her. Laurie was so kind and patient with Luna, and spent so much time with her to gain her trust. She proved fully capable of leashing Luna and bringing her on long walks. We will definitely be booking Laurie again! (provided she would be willing!)”
“Gracie is a true animal lover and it shows upon meeting her. I was nervous to try out Rover for the first time for my senior cat. Meeting Gracie calmed all my nerves - it was so clear she loves and respects all animals. She was prompt on each visit, took care of all my cat’s needs, and even brought him toys. I will surely check to see if Gracie is available anytime I need to be out of town for care of my boy.”
“Abigail was great—she was kind to meet us before her drop in’s to check in and feed my cat! I was super confident that she was in great hands while I was away! She was super communicative and super nice, I’d highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: My schedule is very specific working around work shifts! I’m very communicative and we can work something out that is best for both of us!! I have both personal and professional experience with cats and dogs. I’ve worked with dogs during my time at Essex Tech. I have also have basic experiences with small animals such as rabbits, birds, and reptiles. During my time there I learned the basics of training, grooming and overall behavior. This all led me to have a better grasp at caring for dogs and what their needs are. I have my own cat named Fasa and a dog named Summer, so I have personal experience with them! He’s the buff kitty in my photos! I have also worked at a doggy daycare located in Salem called Walk A Pup where they strive to provide a safe and enriching environment for the dogs in their care. During those six months, I not only walked dogs but also did basic obedience and evening check-ins at client's homes. I was also briefly a bather at Petsmart where watching behavior is a big aspect. Currently I work there caring for the animals we sell. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified. Working part-time fills in a lot of my time and my schedule is often on a week-by-week basis. My availability varies, so it’s best for you to just message me to find out if my schedule works with yours! I know leaving your pet to a stranger is very nerve-wracking and scary. However, I like to reassure you that because of my experience, I am equipped to make sure that your pet has the care they need while you are away for work, vacation, or any other situation. I am more than happy to update you as many times are you need me to. I am also certified in Pet CPR and First aid and have a car that allows me to drive your pet somewhere if something were to happen.
“Mackenzie was an amazing cat sitter! She kept us updated on how Maple was doing, including how she was eating, and sent photos every time she stopped by. She was prompt, friendly, courteous, and incredibly reliable. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Maple was in her care. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
About: I love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities! I am responsible, dependable, and will treat every pet like my own! I also have experience with dog sitting and walking. I love being active and outside. I also am at school missing my puppies at home so I will give your all of the attention, this is just as much for me as it is for them! I am currently in classes so I am working around that but can be very flexible on weekends and Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays after 10 am! I have a huge fenced in backyard where I love to throw the ball and play with my pups. I also walk them around my neighborhood when I feel they need a change of scenery and some new smells!
About: I’ve had animals of all kinds in my family since I was born! I have been dogsitting, cat sitting, and babysitting since I was 14. My sister works at a Doggy Daycare center where I have helped her with night shifts. Additionally to that, through her rover app, I have done overnight pet stays I’m currently a junior at the University of New Hampshire! Tuesdays, and Thursdays-Sundays are my most flexible days! But I’m sure things could be worked out for Mondays, and Wednesdays too. I can easily follow whatever rules your fur baby is most adjusted too! Whatever the case may be, I will make sure they stay on their schedule 😊

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Newmarket
I really appreciate the daily updates with text and pics. Luna seems comfortable with Michela and I know she loves all the petting and brushing she gets. I don't worry as much as I did with boarding. I know Luna is in familiar surroundings and getting special care once a day. Thank you Michela!
Lydia helped us with a late request to check in on our cat while we were away, and she was wonderful! She was timely, communicative, and was able to help with our cats transition to a new food and administer medicine for her! We will definitely be reaching out again for check ins in the future!
Jenna was an amazing sitter while I was out of town. She was so kind and patient with my shy girl Olive. She kept me updated everyday and made sure Olive’s water fountain was always full and that her litter was clean. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a cat 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.

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 .

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.
