“Catherine is an absolute life saver!! When a friend cancelled last minute she was available in pinch to take care of my kitties. Her profile said she loved kitties and that it 100% true. They loved her instantly during the meet and greet and I knew they would be in good hands from that. Which is really important when I was out of the country for 3 weeks on the other side of the globe. I felt secure and could relax knowing they were well taken care of and got the attention they deserve. My cat Pepper was absolutely in love with Catherine. I might just have to book and day here and there so they can spend more time together.”

“Shanna took such good care of my boys! She kept me updated with lots of videos and pictures which I loved. I would definitely book her again. She clearly cares a lot about animals; she spent awhile playing with them rather than just feeding them and leaving.”

About: Hello! My name is Autumn (: I’ve grown up with all different types of animals my whole life, I currently have 2 fur babies myself! I have a Border Collie Mix (Laszlo) and a big Golden Doodle (Cooper)! I’ve been pet and house sitting animals outside of my own since I was 12 years and old, and as a side hustle all throughout high school/college. I love animals will ALL my heart and would love to help care for others pets of any age or breed ☺️ I’m currently working mornings at my job so I have lots of free time in the afternoon/nights and weekends which I know a lot of people who either have to work late or night shift may need some help with! My partner works from home so he’s always with our fur babies which gives me time to help out others! I am more than happy to do whatever’s on your checklist to care for your fur baby, sending a picture of them to ease any of your worries, crating when leaving, leaving them in a designated area of the home, and I have experience with giving medication if needed also! I know the worries that can come with leaving your fur babies with someone else and I would guarantee treating them with the same love and care that I give my own pets!

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and caring for them is something that genuinely brings me joy. I’m a proud pet parent to two rescue pups—a sweet 4-year-old Chihuahua and a 6-year-old French Bulldog. They’ve taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and way of showing affection, and I love getting to know those little quirks. I currently have 3 high profile Hollywood clients I take care of their dogs and cats when they leave town or just need a walk or check in during the day. I’m also comfortable caring for cats and understand that they each have their own unique personalities and boundaries. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers to take some time to warm up, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. When your pets are in my care, I treat them like family. I’m attentive to their routines, patient with their individual needs, and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll give them the same care and attention I’d want for my own. Thank you so much! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I prioritize consistent feeding schedules, fresh water, cleanliness, playtime, and quality attention to ensure pets feel happy and secure. My weekly routine includes monitoring their health, maintaining their environment, and providing dependable, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I treat them like family by providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow their normal routines for feeding, medication, playtime, and companionship while respecting their home and preferences. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, needs, and personality to ensure they feel secure, cared for, and happy while their owners are away.

About: I have ample experience with my own pets growing up (dog, cat, and bearded dragon) as well as sitting for friends and family. I always enjoy being around animals and giving them lots of attention. I work remotely so I have a lot of available time to assist with walking, drop ins, sitting, and giving pets the proper love and care they deserve. Outside of their basic needs and grooming, I always ensured that my pets were happy. I made sure they felt safe in a stable environment and gave them plenty of playing time.

About: My wife and I have both grown up with dogs and have always loved the companionship and personality they bring to our lives. We work from home, so your dog won’t be alone for long. Our routine includes regular walks around the block and visits to nearby parks. Our building is very pet-friendly, and we have dog bowls, bedding, a medium-sized crate, chew toys, and the occasional treat ready to make your pup feel at home. We’re also happy to send regular updates and photos while you’re away. As a fun little perk, I’m also a professional pet photographer. For stays of 2 nights or longer, I’d be happy to do a complimentary mini photo shoot of your pet. Professionally edited photos are available for purchase separately. We also offer home-cooked dog food as an optional add-on service. Just ask us for details! We’d love to welcome your best friend into our home! Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. Trish works from her home office, so there’s almost always someone around to give your dog attention and company throughout the day. We like to make pets feel right at home from the moment they arrive. We give them plenty of attention, petting, playtime, and cuddles, while keeping their normal routines as much as possible. We’re also happy to prepare a home-cooked meal from time to time if your pup enjoys something a little special. Most importantly, we treat every pet like they’re part of the family.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who had a number of dogs and horses throughout my childhood. More recently, I have hands-on experience as a dog foster (I adopted one of them too), and volunteer dog walker with a local rescue. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and caring for dogs & cats with different needs, energy levels, and personalities. I truly enjoy building bonds with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for when I am with them. I am currently consulting from home and have the flexibility in my schedule to take your pupper for a walk, or check in on your cat to make sure they are doing well. I’m a responsible, detail-oriented dog mom who prioritizes consistency, safety, and positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and creating a calm, nurturing environment.

About: I’ve been a huge animal lover since I was a little kid! I grew up pet sitting for neighbors and friends, and picked up lots of dog walking gigs. In my summer and winter breaks from school, I worked for a professional pet sitting company, called the right fluff, and cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, and more! I have experience with house sitting as well as smaller check ups, and dog walking! I have experience administering oral pills. I also have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and every age in between. I love animals and would love to meet yours! I currently work weekdays 10:30am-4:30pm. On weekdays I would be able to provide visits before and after and I’m able to do overnights as well. On weekends I am off and am able to do more frequent visits or walks. I have lots of experience working with dogs with different temperaments. I’m able to crate a dog, put on a harness, administer oral pills, and I’ve taken a pet first aid course. I’m used to cleaning up any accidents as well! I have worked with dogs with lots of different temperaments!

About: Hi! My name is Nina. I have a professional background in dog training and several years of experience caring for animals. Since 2018 I have worked with dogs of different breeds, personalities, and behavior types, and I truly enjoy building trust with every pet I meet. I also have experience caring for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, and other small pets. Every animal has its own personality and routine, and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I live in a clean and pet friendly home and I am home most of the day, so your pet will receive plenty of attention and care. Whether your pet is staying with me, needs a drop in visit, transportation, or basic training, I will treat them like a member of my own family. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests you may have. During every stay I send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple. I want every pet to feel happy, relaxed, and safe while giving owners complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful pet! ❤️ I spend most of the day at home, so pets are never left alone for long. My daily routine is calm and stable, which helps animals feel relaxed and safe. I can feed on schedule, play, take dogs for walks, and send photo updates throughout the day My home is clean, safe, and quiet, which is perfect for all kinds of pets, including shy or sensitive animals. I create a comfortable space for resting and playing. I follow all owner instructions carefully, keep food and water fresh, and monitor pets closely. I understand animal behavior and always handle pets gently and with respect, so they feel calm and loved

About: I’ve lived with cats for about twelve years and pet sat for dogs of all ages and sizes. I have experience with insulin, medication, and special food needs for cats and special food needs for dogs. I also have experience with aggressive cats and am happy to watch them. I’m a college student with a part time job, but I can come mornings, evenings, and night on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The rest of the week I can come whenever needed. I think it’s very important to not just come over to feed animals and take care of their bathroom needs. Pets are used to having someone there 24/7 so they should have some company and someone to play with them while their owners are away.

About: I’ve always loved animals and feel very comfortable around both dogs and cats. I’m patient, caring, and attentive to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m happy to go on walks, play with them, feed them, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away.

I work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m usually available throughout the day and can give your pet plenty of attention. I’m available for boarding, including overnight stays, for both short and longer periods. I prefer to care for one pet at a time so I can give them my full attention and provide a calm, comfortable environment. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so your pet will receive plenty of individual attention. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, I previously had two dogs and a cat, and I’ve also looked after friends’ pets while they were away. I’m comfortable following feeding and walking schedules, giving medication with clear instructions, and adapting to each pet’s individual needs. I can primarily care for pets in my home, but I’m also available for drop-in visits at the owner’s home when needed

“Emilie was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond to ensure my dog, Robin, was comfortable and happy during her drop-in visit. Beforehand, she even took the time to meet us at the dog park to make sure Robin was a good fit, which was so thoughtful and reassuring. Emilie was incredibly welcoming, communicated effectively, and was always prompt. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Robin was in such caring and capable hands while I was at work. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!”

Trinity went above and beyond with our 2 cats, who were stressed from a recent move and us being out of town. She was very communicative with any questions or concerns that came up, responded quickly, and provided photos to update us. She did a couple extra tasks on top of what we asked her to do to make sure our cats and house were well taken care of. 10/10, would definitely recommend and rebook.

Detta was wonderful! She stepped in on short notice after our original sitter cancelled, and she took such great care of Bodhi during his drop-in visit. Bodhi had an upset tummy, and she followed all of his care instructions perfectly and kept me updated throughout.

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

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 .

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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
