“Katherine was so helpful and considerate to Trixie Cat, letting her out on the porch and giving her lots of pets :) it was such a relief to know that she was there for me and gave me reports during each visit. Next time I go out of town I will be sure to schedule Katherine again, and recommend her to my friends with pets”

“Ashlyn was great. We scheduled her for 6 drop-in visits while we were away. She showed up on time and made sure our dogs were let out and had adequate play time. She also made sure they had plenty of water when they were out in the heat. I would definitely use her again.”
“We are repeat customers with Annika. Annika does so well with our fur baby cat. She reads his moods and responds accordingly. She is reliable and provides good updates. We will use her again!”

About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember — I got my first dog at six years old and have been caring for pets ever since.

I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer! She goes above and beyond, and even adding a last minute pet due to a boarding issue wasn’t a problem for her. She’s great at communicating and she takes great pictures. She had never met my GSD before her first visit but he took to her like an old friend. My animals were well cared for while I was away and I’m glad I found her
Anna was very sweet and patient with our three animals. One dog was a bit hesitant the first day but Anna was incredibly patient and got the dog to love her. She stayed to play with the dogs even if it went over the 30 mins that we paid for. The pictures she sent were adorable and we will definitely use her for our next trip.
Leah did such an amazing job watching out two cats while we were out of town! She was always on time, followed our instructions perfectly, and went above and beyond to make sure our boys were well taken care of! As someone who worries about leaving my pets at home alone, Leah’s daily updates were exactly what I needed for peace of mind. I would 100% recommend her for anyone looking for a great pet sitter!

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.

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 Meet & Greet .
