“Candice did a fantastic job dropping in on our pups while we were away for the day. This was our first time ever using a pet sitter/drop-in service, and she made it such a great experience. My dogs usually take some time to warm up to new people, but they almost immediately took to her. She was attentive, caring, and made sure all of their needs were met. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I grew up with a dog and 2 cats my entire childhood. I now live with my boyfriend, Nick, our German shepherd, Willow, and cat, Stella. I still have rescues at my childhood home as well: my 11 year old shepherd/chow Max, and 2 kitties Rusty & Izzy. Very experienced with shepherds and other large active breeds. I get home from work by 5:30 or 6 pm on weekdays and I am typically home all weekend. Weekends we love taking our German shepherd to many of the local parks or on hikes. Jamesville beach is our favorite! Our dog is home with her dad during the day, and gets crated for the hour that he leaves for work and I come home. She is usually crated for a few hours on the weekend when we go grocery shopping. Our cat is very self sufficient with her water fountain and auto kibble feeder.
About: I've been a dog owner and lover my whole life, and I've cared for dogs of all ages — from wiggly puppies to sweet senior babies who just need a little extra patience and TLC. I have hands-on experience with small breeds and understand that little dogs often have big personalities and specific needs. My home is calm, safe, and welcoming — no chaos, no stress. I've also cared for dogs with special needs, so I'm comfortable with medications, mobility issues, or anything that requires a little more attentiveness. When your dog is with me, they're not just being "watched" — they're being cared for like they belong here I work from home in a calm environment. I have two cats that are very well behaved and one dog who is a little crazy. She is deaf with some separation anxiety and OCD, but she is such a little sweetheart. I spend all day waiting on these guys hand and foot, what’s one or two more? 😊 My sweet, friendly dog will keep yours company all day long. I live on a cul-de-sac and we take several walks throughout the day.
“I highly recommend hiring Donna as a pet sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable being away from your beloved fur baby. This was our first time needing a pet sitter and Donna eased our minds by sending the cutest photos, updates, and videos several times a day. Her updates always brought us a smile and we were so happy to know our blind kitty Max was in such good hands! Look no further she is the best! She even gave us updates on how our home renovations were going while we were away, and offered to do other tasks for us. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thanks so much Donna for being the angel we needed!”
“I recommend Kirsten unreservedly! Kirsten was amazing! My cat, Mabel, really liked Kirsten. When my return flights got cancelled and then delayed, Kirsten was able to add an additional visit and that relieved so much stress. Thank you, Kirsten, for your superb attention to Mabel and me!”
About: I have a degree in animal behavior that has prepared me to properly care for animals, among other skills. I have also owned dogs my entire life, including training one of my current dogs. I have volunteered at a dog rescue for about 6 years. I now work at an animal rescue that has me trained to give medications. I have also owned a senior cat for 4 years which has me comfortable cleaning litter boxes and administering medications. I currently have two part time jobs, and typically have 2 or 3 days completely available. On days I work I am available most evenings and occasionally mornings. I am unable to board animals at my house because of my other pets. However, I am able to commute to client's places. I am comfortable crating when I am not there if it is requested.
“Pam was fantastic! She gave me daily updates and photos of my babies. She is very sweet and took great care of my kitties. I would definitely recommend her to look after your fur babies.”
“Jamie was great. I know our little girl appreciated getting some love and attention while we were away. Would use her again in a heartbeat. Our girl can sometimes be a little beastly, and you can tell Jamie reads cat signals well.”
“Georgianne was so great with our pups and she communicated with us so well! We knew each time she was stopping by and she provided us pictures to help reassure the pups were doing well! Highly recommend Georgianne to anyone!”
“My very shy cat opened up to her very quickly. She leaves very thorough updates and takes a lot of nice pictures. She always makes sure we are on the same page with care, etc.”
About: !!I will be adding a $5/day charge for each dog that requires care/cleaning above & beyond that of a typical stay. Dogs that urinate frequently in my home will incur a $50 cleaning fee to cover time, supplies, and/or professional services! **NO DOGS OVER 20 LBS. FOR IN MY HOME CARE. Sorry for any inconvenience ** I have always had a passion for animals. I have over 12 years experience providing care to dogs and small pets, plus I’ve worked as a zookeeper and a kennel technician caring for puppies. I can provide all basic care plus bathing and oral/topical medications. I also specialize in caring for dogs with anxiety and senior care. I also care for small pets (birds, reptiles, rodents, etc). When you request a booking, please know that your request is incredibly important to me and I will respond as quickly as possible. ##PLEASE NOTE: Walks include just that. If you require feeding or other additional care, you will need to book a Drop In service. Thank you## I work full time Monday through Friday, but I always make plenty of time for cuddles, playtime, and walks! I also have an older teen who assist with care (16 (she also dog sits). I do not work weekends or holidays. I currently have 3 small pups ranging in age from 3-10 years old. They are all crate trained and crates are utilized while I am at work for their safety. We use tie outs for potty and outdoor play, while also providing dozens of toys for indoor playtime. My pups are fed on a schedule and fresh water is always provided. In your home I would follow your rules and routines in order to keep your pup safe and healthy.
“Maria was absolutely amazing and highly recommended. She took care of our two dogs and one of then is a bit aggressive (anxiety) with strangers and he ended up loving her. She is so good with the animals and just an overall great person. We hope that she will be available in the future for us to use! Thank you so much Maria!”
“This was our second time booking Kilie for our two finicky cats. She was totally on top of things, and everything went perfectly smoothly. Having someone we can trust, and who’s so easy to work with, makes us feel much more comfortable traveling away from home, even just for a day or two. Thanks again, Kilie! We’ll be booking again soon!”
“Meghanne did such an amazing job with Z.D. on her drop-in visit! I was very anxious as this was a first experience for me and my dog is definitely on the more energetic side, but after a very optimistic meet and greet, the drop-in itself went very well. Z clearly had a wonderful mid-day break and was very well taken care of. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Kaylah was wonderful with our Great Dane during our day trip. She was very accommodating and eager to enjoy her time with our big baby. She sent updates and wonderful pictures. At no point were we not confident that Ellie was in great hands.”
“Hannah was excellent! From the first meet and greet through the two drop-ins. I appreciated her prompt communication and follow-up. We will be looking to book her in the future!”

Jennifer was incredible with our kitties! You can tell she really loves what she does and it shows in how she treated our babies. She provided tons of options for enrichment -toys, treats, cat tv - that our girls loved. Her updates gave us plenty of info about how our babies were doing and she was super quick to respond to any messages or requests we made. I would 100% recommend her! And I will definitely be using her again if the situation arises!! She was great!
Candice took super-good care of my elderly cat! She the (the cat!) doesn't often accept strangers easily, but apparently felt quite at home with Candice, going right to her for pets and snuggles while we were away. We were very relieved that all went well ...
Can’t thank Kirsten enough for taking such good care of my Potter!! This was the first time my husband and I took an extended vacation (8 days) without having someone house sit as well and Kirsten made sure potter was comfortable with each visit. I got atleast 5 pictures with every visit and I just know he loved her coming to spend time. Will 100% be requesting Kirsten again!
Valerie did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Willow for the past week! She provided us with detailed updates, photos and videos each day which was such a comfort to us while we were away. Willow doesn’t warm up to new people very easily, but she seemed comfortable with Valerie very quickly, which is a testament to the loving attention she provided! We would happily book with Valerie again and recommend her to others in need of a reliable and caring pet 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. 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.
