“Marcus does a wonderful job with our 3 kitties! They warm up to him faster than most other people they meet. He is quick to respond and took great care of our kitties, including one with diabetes. I will use Marcus for all my pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 10, his name is Loki. It was up until I was 15 that I started taking care of him. I walked him, fed him, and even taught him tricks like sit, stay, paw, and spin. I also have a cat named Sofie that I’ve had since I was in pre school, I regularly change her litter box. I also have a guinea pig that I take care of and had since last winter. But I absolutely love animals, always wanted to get into an animal related career eventually. I am currently working a part time job at the Solon Police Department to clean there. I get to choose my hours, so it’s pretty flexible. I also have a few classes I will begin taking in the fall at Tri-C for Vet Tech. My priority is making sure their needs come first, feeding them, making sure they have fresh water, letting them out, clean potty space, walking them, giving them good play time, belly rubs of course! Not too many cats enjoy belly rubs, so neck pets will be provided instead!!✨💖
“Val was great! Excellent communicator, was always there when she said she'd be, and my dog adored her 😊 It's a huge relief knowing my dog was in safe and caring hands, would definitely book again.”
“Halie is an exceptional person and sitter!! We are so appreciative of her kindness to our 4 rescue cats. They all loved her and that’s saying a lot as one of our babies is super duper skittish. Cat moms and dads- totally book with Halie! So grateful for her and so happy to have the peace of mind that comes with complete trust of your fur babies when you go out of town!! 10/10!! Thank you so much Halie!!!!”
“Lorene did a great job taking care of my cat. She was very kind and patient, and took the time to play with my cat and help her slowly get familiar and comfortable with her. I really appreciate her care!”
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was so kind and patient with them and took awesome care of them while we were out of town. Our dogs tend to be a little nervous but she was so patient and kind with them and they warmed up so quick to her! She is so reliable and it was such a relief to know that my pups were in good hands. Thank you Jenna!! You’re the best!”
About: Hi! My name is Ebony, and I’m a college student pursuing a degree in Veterinary Technology. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and currently have a dog of my own, so caring for animals isn’t just a job… it’s my passion. With my background, I’m comfortable administering oral medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and responding appropriately in emergency situations. Cleanliness and organization are very important to me, and I always make sure your home and your pet’s space are left tidy. I am more than happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you always know how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. ❤️ While I attend school full-time , my availability outside of classes is fully dedicated to your pet’s care. I currently offer in-home sitting and walking services so your pet can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their daily routine. I understand how important patience, consistency, and compassion are when it comes to building trust with both pets and their owners. I strictly follow all provided feeding schedules, dietary needs, medication instructions, and routines to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their own home. Thank you for considering me as your sitter ❣️
“Lauren was amazing! Gordie loved her and she gladly came to meet me before our appointment. Her ability to alleviate my stress made all the difference. Will gladly rebook with her!”
About: Growing up in 4H, the importance of responsible animal stewardship was instilled in my at a young age. I believe your pet deserves the utmost respect, attention, and kindness at all times. I am an incoming graduate student, so I will have an open schedule and plenty of time to play with and tend to your pet throughout the day. I have had and watched many pets with a wide range of personalities. I feel comfortable and confident interacting with new animals and getting to know their individual needs. It is important to me that any animal in my care feel as safe and happy as possible.
“Georgia took great care of our Archie! He really likes her and looks forward to her visits which makes it so much easier to be away. Thanks for looking after him while we were away. 😊”
About: I’ve had experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. At home, I currently have a pitbull mix and a weiner dog, so I’m very comfortable handling different energy levels, temperaments, and routines. I also have experience caring for cats and other family dogs over the years. I regularly dog sat a Vizsla named Henry, which gave me experience with high-energy breeds that need lots of attention, exercise, and affection. In addition to pet care, I currently work as a nanny for a family with a French Bulldog and a Bernedoodle, so I’m around dogs every day and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and genuinely love making animals feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is something that’s naturally built into my everyday life and routine. My dogs are a huge part of my day, whether it’s waking up and letting them out first thing in the morning, feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, or just spending time with them throughout the day. I’m very used to giving animals constant attention, comfort, and structure because that’s just how I’ve always cared for my own pets. Having both a pitbull mix and a weiner dog has taught me how different every dog’s personality and needs can be. One may want to cuddle while the other wants to play or go outside, so I’m very attentive to their behavior and routines. I also work as a nanny for a family with a French Bulldog and Bernedoodle, so caring for dogs is something that continues throughout my day even while I’m working. I honestly love being around animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Spending time with dogs doesn’t feel like a chore to me at all — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and naturally prioritize in my daily life. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible so their pets feel comfortable, safe, and less stressed while they’re away. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I also pay close attention to their behavior and body language so I can make sure they’re happy and doing well. I understand how important it is for owners to trust the person staying in their home with their pets, so I’m very respectful, dependable, and clean. I make sure the home stays tidy, follow any instructions carefully, and keep owners updated with messages and pictures so they know their pets are being well cared for. I genuinely enjoy bonding with animals and making them feel loved and comfortable while their family is away.
About: When it’s time to go outside it’s time. Clean up areas where the pet(s) have pooped @. Please make sure they are trained with handling strangers. Thank you !

“Katie was amazing! We hired Katie to do drop-in visits with our pup while we were out of town for the weekend, and she took such great care of her. She gave wonderful updates and made us feel comfortable about being away. Would definitely hire her again!”

About: My whole life i’ve loved animals. I even wanted to work with them full time. Throughout growing up I have gotten experience with many different animals such as dogs, cats, turtles, and even lizards. I would always be thrilled when I was asked to take care of my family and friends dogs or cats. That being said, when I heard about this app I was super excited! I’d love to keep your pet entertained while you go do your thing! I do work somedays, but I have short hours and flexible schedules. I am willing and able to take care before and after my shift! I have plenty of time for playing and cuddles. I would love to play and walk your dog! I can also accommodate them in any form they need. If you would rather me crate them I can do that too! I have pets of my own. Though if your animal isn’t a fan of other animals, I can easily take mine to my brothers house for the day to accommodate your dog or cats.

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.
