“Jennifer was wonderful! She took great care of our kitty and kept an eye on things around the house with daily check-ins and updates. Will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Madelyn was great with our 2 kitties. We came back from our trip to very happy and peppy cats. She was reliable, arrived when expected, and provide very cute photos from each visit. She cleaned the bowls which was very nice. This was our first time booking with Madelyn and will be sure to book with her again in the future.”
“First time leaving my babies. Amy made me feel comfortable from the start. I could tell from the pictures my kittens loved her. I will definitely use her again. Thanks so much Amy!”
“Ann is very responsive and friendly! She came over to meet the kitties and go over everything before we went out of town, which I appreciate a lot. She sent pictures and left good commentary after her visit. We appreciate having some insight into how our babies are doing while we're gone. Would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter”
“She did such a good job with my cats! I have a diabetic scaredy cat who can be hard to find and on Alexis's first visit, they sat on the couch together! Which is beyond the norm for my girl. She did have to be tracked down every visit, but insulin and food were given so it was very successful. I had to add on a last minute booking, nothing prepared, and Alexis did great on the fly. I appreciate every photo and note she left, and all that she did. Will definitely book again when needed”
“August was great! She made time quickly to come meet our cats before she watched them and communicated well while we were gone! The cats warmed up to her well and we will for sure be using her for cat/dog care in the future!”
“Bless you for coming to save the day!!! Looking at these pics they clearly loved you LOL so I’m glad you guys had fun together!!! Thank you so much and we will absolutely book you again for our future outings!!! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Alejandra was very sweet and attentive! She took her time to coax my cats out of hiding and give them lots of love. Lots of cute pictures were sent! I was nervous as it’s my first time using a pet sitter as I usually take my babies with me, but she gave me a peace of mind that my boys were well taken care of!”
“Abby did a great job taking care of our elderly dog while we were away. She gave us important updates and stayed in communication with any questions she had about his care. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worry knowing Sam was in great hands! Would definitely recommend and use Abby again!”
“Janet is literally the best cat sitter on Rover! Did an outstanding job, putting our minds at ease leaving our baby in her hands. She followed all instructions to a T. Takes the best pictures of our kitty. She is absolutely wonderful and you are guaranteed a professional, attentive and respectful sitter. We will only be using her when we go on trips. Highly highly recommend her services.”
“Karen is great and our cat loves her. Karen takes pics and is super responsive. We’ve used her multiple times. She also lives in our same apartment which works out great. Would very much recommend her A+++++”
“Chantelle was very friendly and patient with all of my kitties. They made lots of messes and she cleaned up after them day after day. She went above and beyond.”

We create a calm, safe, and happy environment where dogs can feel at home while you’re away. 🚫 We don’t accept aggressive dogs, females in heat, unfixed males, dogs coughing or sneezing— safety and well-being are our top priorities for every dog in our care. ❗️All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations, Specially Bordetella. ❗️Daycare is open 7:30AM to 6PM. Any pick-up after 6PM will be considered boarding price. WHAT I OFFER • a calm, clean, dog-friendly home •presence(we are home all day), if i have to run and errand, my husband is home, we offer comfort, fun, and gentle attention • individual care (I host a limited number of dogs) • regular walks adjusted to your dog's energy and needs • continuous communication (photos, videos, updates) • safety, responsibility and a loving atmosphere BEFORE CONFIRMING THE BOOKING, PLEASE SHARE: - your dog's age, breed and personality - how they handle separation and new environments - allergies, medications, special needs - how they react to other dogs and people - daily routine (meals, walks, habits) - likes and dislikes - whether they can stay home alone - any house rules (e.g., do we need to hide the shoes? A little bit about me.. I grew up surrounded by animals from horses, pigs, bunnies, chickens, turtles, and many stray dogs. My family often rescued them from the street, and that’s where I learned how to care for them and, most importantly, how to love them. As a child, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, but I soon realized I’m too sensitive to handle see them in pain or saying goodbyes. That’s why I’ve poured my heart into this work, because every dog deserves to be safe, loved, and treated like family. We can’t wait to meet your fur baby and welcome them into our little dog loving family! Thank you for trusting us 💛🐶 Pet care is my daily routine. I spend most of my day with the dogs, making sure they’re safe, comfortable, having fun and well-loved. I occasionally teach online yoga classes, but during that time, my husband is home and helps care for them. Between the two of us, your pup will always have someone nearby to supervise, play, or just relax with. I care for dogs in my home as if they were my own. Dogs have access to both indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the day, they’re free to relax inside or play in our large, fully fenced backyard under supervision. I maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment with plenty of water, rest, affection, and playtime. Since I’m home 24/7, I provide constant attention and adapt to each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine. For dogs who need extra care, such as those with medical or emotional needs, I offer gentle, individualized support. My husband also assists during the day, especially when I’m briefly teaching a yoga class. Our goal is always to make your dog feel secure, loved, and part of our family.
“Emily was phenomenal!! The photos and updates let me know my pets were well cared for. She was beyond patient with one cat that was pretty grumpy I was gone and I'm so thankful she was there to take care of them!”

New to the area. Needed a pet sitter. Molly was awesome. Had her watch our cat for 2 weeks. She was very sweet and worked with all our requests. She was prompt to respond, answered any question we had while we were gone. Our kitty was well fed and had good water when we came back! We plan to use her whenever we go out of town!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
