“Bhavana was so awesome. She trekked through flooded streets to get to our house and drop in for visits with our cat while we were away. She takes lot of photos which is great if you’re obsessed with your pet like we are 😂. Highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again in the future!”
“This is our first time trying pet sitting and we were pretty unsure about it. Jessica helped us navigate the process and did a great job with our kitties. We’ll definitely ask for her help again in the future!”
About: Hello! I’ve owned 3 dogs, one small and two medium, my last border collie was the only one I trained since the other two behaved so well, I taught him a lot of “patience” tricks for him to be comfortable not being around me since he had separation anxiety, I also taught him different tricks and did different exercises from day to day since well he is a border collie haha. Other than that I’ll follow your list of demands and pet needs while you’re away, don’t worry your baby is in good hands!! I am currently in the military, so my schedule is not flexible. I’ll be completely off on the weekends but on weekdays I’ll be free after 4pm some days possible 3pm. I cannot do Thursdays unfortunately that’s my busiest day of the week. If you need overnight pet sitting I don’t mind at all just let me know! I cannot take any pets “home” because i currently live in the barracks and I won’t be able to give the needed support for your furry friend.
About: I am in the military and am unable to have a pet of my own that lives with me full time, unfortunately. But I would love to be able to care for yours while you are away! I am currently on medical leave from the military (nothing physically prohibiting), so my schedule is almost completely open to accommodate your fur babies. I have had animals my whole life, and have a deep affection for all types. I also volunteer at an animal shelter weekly and love getting to know every animal’s unique personality. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and spending quality time with pets throughout the day. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they receive the care, attention, and companionship they’re used to. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions closely, while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I keep a clean, calm environment and am attentive to their behavior and individual needs. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience working in animal shelters, dog daycare centers, and boarding facilities. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and needs. After recently losing my beloved dogs, I realized I wasn't quite ready for another long-term commitment, but I deeply missed having dogs around. Rover has given me the perfect opportunity to open my home and heart to dogs while helping other pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands. I'm a stay-at-home mom, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I also have two cats who grew up with dogs and are comfortable sharing their space, as well as two young children who have been around dogs their entire lives and know how to interact respectfully with them. For the comfort and safety of every pet in my care, I only accept dogs from one household at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention and create a calm, stress-free environment during their stay. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. My mornings typically begin with feeding pets, potty breaks, walks, or playtime before my family's daily activities start. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I can accommodate additional potty breaks, outdoor time in our fenced yard, feeding schedules, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and enrichment. In the evenings, pets are included in our family's relaxed routine, with more playtime, walks, and cuddles before bedtime. For boarding and daycare, dogs are rarely left unattended, and I only accept pets from one household at a time to ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention. I care for every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. Dogs have access to our large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and because I am home throughout the day, they receive consistent attention and companionship. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, which allows me to focus on their individual needs and maintain a low-stress environment. For cats, I ensure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and attention at their comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a quiet and reliable caretaker, I respect their personality and routine. I am also comfortable following special instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Judy watched our cats while we were out of state for 1 week. We looked forward to her daily updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cats were under her watchful eye. We would definitely recommend booking her services!”
“Aimee helped me out on very short notice by watching my three cats and it was such a relief to have her there for them. You can tell she truly cares! She kept me updated with lots of photos and was very attentive. She also let me know if anything about the cats seemed off, which I appreciated. My cats were totally at ease with her and I can’t overstate how comforting her visits were to me. Thank you!”
“Thank you very much Brittny. It was so nice to travel and not worry. You were detailed and lovely with our cats. We can always travel and count on you (hopefully you’ll be available) knowing that you’ll love on our fur babies. Great and pleasant service!”
“Great sitter, clearly loves animals. She handled an issue with our microfeeder perfectly! Communicated immediately and clearly. Our kitties loved her. Just needs to learn how to do the rover cards, but I'm sure she'll get there!”
About: Cat mom of 2, Jimmi is 25 and rescued from Fukushima Japan during my time volunteering with Japan Cat Network (he’s a bit of a celebrity and was featured on animal planet!), and Pixie is 3 years old. Every cat has their own unique “big personality” that compliments the home and add a little spunk to our lives! My dog Kylo is a rescue from Prince William county VA animal shelter and has been with me since 2018, he’s approximately 10 years old. I recently moved from northern VA and looking to get to know the community better. What better way than through meeting likeminded pet owners! I am currently looking for professional work and availability will be evenings and weekends, but for now I have quite a bit of flexibility to accommodate. I’m in a smoke free apartment with an extra bedroom, a nice dog park, and dog wash station available. I’m happy to also come to your home and follow your routines.
About: I'm dependable and love animals. I'll make sure every pet is safe happy and well cared for while you're away. Would love to help out I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to care for your cat and give them the attention they deserve! I will tell you before if anything changes! Your cat’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, litter care, medications if needed, and their normal routine. I’ll respect your home, keep doors and windows secure, and pay attention to any changes in your cat’s behavior. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your cat is safe and being cared for while you’re away.
About: From growing up around cats and dogs to working as a supervisor at a dog daycare, I’m confident that your pet will be in good hands with me. I have dogs of my own who are all very socialized, experience with old dogs too. Medication management for dogs is second nature to me so you won’t have to worry about any missing carprofen doses. Just reach out to me and I’ll see when I what works. I have a lot of time on my hands so just communicate :) All my dogs get wet food, dental treats, joint supplement, the works. They’re spoiled lol they have lots of dog beds and they can get on whatever furniture they want. I do my best to make sure my dogs get the life they deserve. I also take them to the dog park pretty often so they’re socialized with strangers and other dogs well.
About: I treat dogs like people, because they are essentially furry baby humans. I currently have a two year old Alaskan Malamute who loves friends and needs mom to be home for more adventures with other furry friends! We don't mind getting dirty or going swimming or letting all the passersby have furry pets as we walk around the city. Your baby will be an extension of my own baby and will be well played with and taken care of! I also live close to the dog park in Belltown and Sculpture Park. I do have a car if travel becomes necessary or we planned on taking an extensive fun adventure day to another off leash dog park, or beaches, etc. I look forward to pampering your pooch baby! I’m currently in between work and have an open schedule. I typically have an 8AM rise time and in bed by 11pm if I can help it! I can follow instructions well and not afraid to ask questions if I need to. I make sure the home is always safe and if something needs to be cleaned up, it’ll be taken care of!
About: I’ve never really known life without pets. Dogs and cats have been part of my household since I was a toddler. I've cared for a pretty wide range of personalities, breeds, ages, and energy levels.. I’ve also provided occasional pet sitting for friends and family, including walks, feeding routines, and basic grooming, and overnight care. I currently have two cats of my own, who are frequently spoiled. So I am also well-versed in cat care. In the past I’ve owned several other cats and dogs, including a Jack Russell Terrier, a Black Lab Retriever, and a Coonhound. I am conscientious about the pets in my care. I take the time to get to know the animals and follow their normal routine as much as possible. I can happily provide energetic walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. Whatever their particular needs and quirks, I will be attentive and affectionate with your pets while you are away. I am currently currently working from home part-time. My schedule is usually flexible, so I can accommodate the specific needs of your pets. I look forward to talking with you. I am very communicative with my clients. I want to you to be confident that your pet will be well cared for. I strictly follow my clients’ instructions and can send pictures and updates as often as requested.
About: Being a professional nanny for the last 10 years has also brought me a plethora of furry friends - I have always loved animals growing up and I have been lucky enough to gain experience with different types of animals throughout my life, including horses and smaller critters! I'm an overall animal lover, and have had plenty of experience with dog/cat sitting and walking, feeding, and overnight stays! I am currently based in Brooklyn but also travel frequently! Feel free to reach out even if you are not local to Brooklyn :) I currently take classes online, and work online mostly, so my schedule is usually very flexible! I do prefer at least 1-2 days notice, but if I am available last minute, I will always be in touch as quickly as I can! I do not offer pet care in my home but in the client's home my only goal is to respect the wishes of your home and make sure your pet is well taken care of, safe, and happy!
“Tayauna provided extraordinary services when caring for my cat, Lily Rose, while I was away on a trip. As many of us understand, it is not easy to be away from our beloved pets. Taya helped give me peace of mind through the daily updates and photos. She went above and beyond to provide the best care for Lily, and she blessed my heart as well. When returning, Lily was so happy and I believe the quality of attention and care that was given to her made all the difference. Thank you so much Taya! Lily is looking forward to spending time with again in the future, and I am beyond grateful to have a cat sitter who I can trust to do an excellent job. God bless you!”
“I am so grateful to have found Amy, and recommend her wholeheartedly! Leaving my girl as I travel far away is always hard, especially in the hands of a stranger. But Amy put me at ease right away, during our first meeting. I arrived back to a peaceful kitty and a calm home. I have no doubt that we will be hiring Amy again! Thank you!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Norfolk
Larry is a great communicator and does a great job keeping an eye on my cat while I’m out of town. He’s very understanding that she is not super social but he makes sure she has everything she needs to be safe and happy while I’m away and does a great job staying in touch so I never wonder how she is doing.
Jordan was fantastic!! She sent many photos each visit and was flexible and happy to work with me on my crazy last minute schedule changes and trip with limited cell service. She took great care of my cat and the outdoor stray cat and my cat loved her, which isn't always the case with new people!!
Quinn was amazing as our pet sitter for our cat Leo. He went above and beyond while I was away for several days, and I'm truly astonished at how easy Quinn made my vacation. Leo has a lot of requirements as far as taking care of him, and Quinn rose to the occasion in a huge way, and I really got the safe feeling Leo would be taken care of very well while I was away. Would definitely recommend Quinn as a pet sitter!!! Your pets are in good hands if you do
Lisa was wonderful! She followed all instructions, including giving medications to one of our cats. We received daily pictures and updates. The cats liked her a lot, which says a lot about her personality! Will definitely rebook in the future, and highly recommend!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
