“Nina and Leo is very kind and careful. They followed instructions and adapted to different situations - when we're away, there was an unexpected ant situation and unexpected outage. Leo and Nina went extra miles to help us keep our cats safe and comfortable, also kept our house everything in order. Very helpful and communicative!!”
“Alexa was responsible and detailed oriented. I booked a drop in visit and came back home to a happy and fulfilled dog! She was also great at understanding my reactive puppy and keeping him safe. I would recommend her and also book her again.”
“I was super anxious about leaving my kitties alone for the first time, especially as one just got an ear infection and needed medication, but Zolfar was amazing! Super responsive, really looked out for their wellbeing, and even administered the medicine exactly as needed. Came back home to two perfectly healthy kittens :)”
“Julia was wonderful! She dropped in to care for my 2 cats for three days. Her Rover cards were awesome with tons of pics and great feedback about her visit. Would definitely recommend!”
“Thanks Danielle! You were so kind to go back and check on something for me when you had already left. Always goes above and beyond to take care of my kitty. Highly recommend!”
“Chelsea is AMAZING! She is so great with our cats—they love her and always come out to greet her despite being very shy. She also accommodated us over a holiday weekend last minute which we will forever be grateful for. She is very communicative, attentive, and considerate. Could not recommend more!”
“Julia Mae took great loving care of Dexter. Thorough updates and lots of picks to make this momma feel like her baby was being well taken care of. And to find a sitter on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day who sacrificed their time was a true gift. Thank you - Christine and Dexter”
“Abigail is so lovely! Her heart is so big, and she shows it through puppy love! My Freya love Abigail, and we can’t wait to have her back. She followed all the instructions and reached out with any questions! I felt super comfortable having her in my home, and had no concerns at all! Freya and I are thrilled to have Abigail!”
“I booked with Megan for check-ins for my three cats over the holidays and she was amazing! From the meet and greet to her notes and pictures, she was professional and attentive. She went above and beyond providing care for my pets. After a few other lukewarm Rover experiences, I was so happy to find Megan.”
“Rachel was amazing with our cat, Jasper! She was communicative, thoughtful and clearly genuinely cares. Her updates were detailed and reassuring and she went above and beyond—bringing in mail, spending extra time, and even leaving a sweet handwritten note and photo. Jasper clearly adored her and we felt so at ease while away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“Morgan took exceptional care of my two cats! She’s reliable, responsive, and very kind. I felt totally at peace being away from my babies, I’ve actually already booked Morgan again! She’s fantastic, and I’m so glad to have found her.”
About: I have over 25 years experience providing professional dog care for dozens of breeds of dogs. I am very comfortable with all breeds both small and large and as a 3 time Irish setter owner I have experience with dogs that are very active and very needy of attention. I will be happy to set up a personal care plan involving walks, feeding, and any other component that you require to make sure your dog is always happy, safe, and well attended! I work from home doing administrative tasks for my brother’s construction company. Your dog will be able to spend its time either playing in our large grassy back yard or inside with me. I live with my father so in the event I have to leave briefly there will be someone home with your dog 24 hours a day. I have a large grassy gated backyard and my work station looks out on it so I will be able to ensure that your pet never goes unattended. Your pet will be able to go inside and out at their choosing. We can also schedule as many walks per day as you choose. I can guarantee, based on decades of experience that your dog will be safe and very happy in my care.
“Kim is an amazing sitter. My 2 cats love her and were happy to see her daily. She also helped keep an eye on some leaks I had from the rain and kept me informed on that. I really appreciated that! I will definitely book Kim in the future!”
“Octavia is awesome. Our dog has a generally anxious personality but he was totally comfortable with Octavia right from the start. She was right on time both times and super reliable - we will definitely be having her watch Dudley again!”
“Pouneh is awesome. She sent pictures of my cat when she got here and pics of other things I asked for. My cat likes her and I felt comfortable with her being in my home. She really loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone that likes attention to detail and most importantly wants great care for your animal.”
About: I've been caring for pets for several years, beginning with my family's two cats and later helping care for a neighbor's cat. Since then, I've had the opportunity to care for both cats and dogs through repeat house-sitting and drop-in visits. My experience includes caring for multiple cats on several occasions, house sitting for three dachshunds while maintaining their feeding schedule and providing medication for one with back issues, and caring for dogs of different sizes, including pit bull's and a medium-sized mixed-breed dog. I take pride in keeping pets on their normal routine and providing a calm, comfortable environment while their owners are away. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel at ease, knowing they'll receive dependable and attentive care. My schedule is currently very flexible as I work at a yoga studio, this allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. Whether you need regular drop-in care or overnight house sitting, I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care while maintaining your pet's normal routine. I'll do my best to work around your schedule and am happy to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities - every step (or paw print) of the way! Your pet's health and comfortability is my top priority! I strive to keep the environment and schedule for your beloved pets the same as if you were home. I follow medication schedules, feeding schedules, and all your desires and needs to keep your fur-baby happy and healthy.
About: My experience is primarily with cats and dogs (in particular pit bulls and northern breeds including huskies), and aquariums (fresh, salt and reef), although I am happy to discuss sitting for households that include exotics such as reptiles or small pets. I am comfortable with high medical needs or multi-pet households due to my previous experience with multiple-cat homes and as an owner of two dogs and a cat myself. I only care for pets who are able to remain in their home environment (housesitting) because I feel that maintaining their usual routines and experience as much as possible when their humans are gone is critical to minimizing their stress. I work remotely as a freelancer, and during housesits, will not leave your pets alone except for essential errands lasting no more than two hours at a time, once a day. (For example, medical or dental appointments, checking on my own home and pets, running errands). For pets who suffer from separation anxiety, I may be able to offer continuous 24/7 coverage but this will need to be discussed. I feel that it's very important that client and sitter are a good fit for each other. While I am happy to work with households containing reactive pets or complex routines such as rotating dogs who do not always get along, I cannot accept jobs involving aggressive animals or those with a bite history. Pre-booking meet and greets are critical to making sure that we are on the same page and that both you and I have an understanding of what your pet's routine should be while you are gone. I provide daily updates via text, email, or messenger, and am available via phone or text 24/7 when you are away. For routine inquiries, please be aware that I do not check my messages between 9PM-8AM Pacific time.
About: I’ve always been surrounded by pets, growing up with both cats and dogs in my family. This constant companionship has given me a deep understanding and love for animals. I have specific experience with cats that have anxiety and aggressive behavior, learning to care for them with patience and understanding. While living in Batumi, Georgia, I volunteered to help stray dogs, feeding them and working to find them homes. This experience not only reinforced my passion for animal care but also equipped me with the skills to handle different pet behaviors and needs. I have an open schedule, so I’m available for daily walks and can stay with your pets at home for a couple of days if needed. I’m flexible and ready to fit pet care into my routine, ensuring your pets get the attention and care they need. I offer personalized care for pets both in clients' homes and during walks. At Home: - Feeding and Hydration: Ensure your pets have fresh food and water according to their schedule. - Companionship: Spend quality time playing and keeping them company to reduce anxiety. - Cleanliness: Maintain a clean environment by handling litter boxes, pet bedding, and any messes. - Medication: Administer medications as required. During Walks: - Exercise and Fun: Provide engaging walks tailored to your pet’s energy level and health needs. - Safety First: Always prioritize safety by using secure leashes and harnesses and being vigilant about surroundings. - Behavior Management: Handle any behavioral issues with patience and positive reinforcement techniques. I customize my services to meet the specific needs and routines of your pets, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well-cared for.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - North Fair Oaks
Rachel is amazing! She is really clued in to our cat’s well being and quirky habits. Her daily reports (including things she notices that are non-pet related, like houseplant watering needs) and attention to detail make us feel completely at ease while we are gone. She’s the absolute best!!!
Jenna is an exceptional cat sitter, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. She is warm, kind, and naturally wonderful with animals. From the very beginning, I felt completely comfortable knowing my cat was in her care.
Savanna was once again very responsive and wonderful to work with. She is a great communicator and problem solver. It was so great of her to take care of ants that threatened my cat’s food access while I was away. I’m so grateful to have had someone trusted like Savanna look after Maxine.

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.

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 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.
