“Patrícia was great! It was our first time having a rover sitter in our new house so our cat was a little scared but Patrícia handled it well. We absolutely trust her with our pet and property! Thanks!”
About: Hi there! I’ve mostly taken care of cats, but I’m open to taking care of dogs & god walking if they are good with people. I work from home so having a pet to play with on my breaks will for sure keep me entertained all day! I’m a young, energetic man who works a remote corporate job. Looking for a pet to love & play with during the day so I don’t stare at my screen all day. My schedule is pretty flexible since I work from home. I do usually eat dinner with my family, so it would be ideal if I could go back home for a couple hours in the evening to eat with them. I’m an affectionate person who loves to play with pets because they get exercise & I get to destress. Especially since I work from home, I definitely have the time to give your pet the care & attention that you request. Lastly, as someone who loves to talk, I talk to pets all the time, of course in a sweet tone because I truly believe that dogs & cats can understand the things we say to them!
“Kimberly was lovely with our two cats. I scheduled her at the last minute and she stepped in quickly and professionally. She was great with our "girls" and took good care of them.”
About: Having grown up with dogs my entire life and currently caring for 10 rescues of my own, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve cared for large, active breeds such as German Shepherds and Labrador Retrievers, as well as Bluetick Coonhounds and mixed breeds. I’m familiar with the different needs of energetic working breeds, playful retrievers, and scent-driven hounds that love to explore on walks. I’ve also gained valuable experience caring for rescue dogs, including those who may be nervous, shy, or still adjusting to new environments. I understand that some dogs need extra patience and reassurance, while others require plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. My experience includes caring for energetic puppies, maintaining consistent feeding and walking schedules, reinforcing basic routines, and providing extra attention to older dogs who may need a slower pace. What sets me apart is that caring for multiple dogs with different personalities and needs is already part of my daily life. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they receive individualized care, attention, and affection! Caring for dogs and cats is already a big part of my everyday routine! With 10 rescue dogs of my own, I’m very familiar with balancing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure every dog gets the individual attention they deserve. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits throughout Fairfield County and am happy to work with your pet’s existing schedule. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, an energetic walk, some playtime, or extra companionship while you’re away, I’m here to help! I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to keep their routines as familiar and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! Having experience with multiple rescue dogs has taught me the importance of understanding different personalities, recognizing body language, and respecting each dog’s individual boundaries. When caring for pets in your home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routines, including feeding instructions, walking preferences, and any specific care needs. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may be nervous around new people, reactive to other dogs, or easily overstimulated in unfamiliar situations. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, leashes and harnesses fit properly, and walks are appropriate for your dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away!
“Jocelyn did a fantastic job with drop in visits for our cats Cacio and Pepe. She covered all their basic needs and favorite things on each visit. She even cleaned up when one of our cats got sick. Loved receiving photos each time she finished a check in! Would definitely book again in a heartbeat.”
“Highly recommend! Kris and Angelique provided excellent care for 2 weeks for my kitty. Each day they went above and beyond giving me a sense of comfort and ease knowing my cat was not only getting fed but also receiving snuggles.”
“Cassidy was a stellar sitter for my two cats! We were gone for 10 days which was the longest in a while that they’d been on their own and we came back to very happy, well-taken-care-of buddies, even our stand-offish diva cat who only came out a few times for her. Cassidy’s daily updates were sweet and thorough and she even let us know about a small issue with the house. Absolutely wonderful experience!”
About: I have been babysitting for my neighbors, friends, and family. They really rely on me to take care of their babies when they are on vacation, at work, or running late. They have also asked me to run home and take care of their animals. I'm currently working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups! I'm available on the weekends and weekdays. I have a multiz male dog who is very friendly and playful. He is used to being around other dogs and loves to go to the dog park to play with them.
About: Fair warning: Pets are a little spoiled in my house! 😊 I've cared for animals my entire life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I've cared for my own senior dog throughout her final years, large and small breed dogs, rescue kittens, and adult cats, including raising my own two cats since they were kittens. I've trained all of my own pets and understand the importance of consistency. If your pet has specific routines, commands, or training practices you'd like maintained, I'm happy to follow them closely so their progress and structure continue seamlessly while they're in my care. I have a genuine soft spot for animals, and every pet in my care receives the highest quality treatment. Whether your furry friend enjoys treats, walks, playtime, or cuddles, they'll receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care and are sure to have a great time while you're away. The day is dedicated to taking care of the fur babies. I'm available 7 days for check-ins, walks, home visits, and boarding. Let's connect and set up a time! My home is a relaxed space for cats or dogs to roam freely. My community offers a fenced in dog park and in my unit I have plenty of vertical space for your cat to rule over, including 2 cat towers and plenty of enrichment toys. I also have a catio on my balcony for some fresh air. If needed, I will separate my cats from more reactive animals while in my care.
About: Growing up with cats and various household pets, and loving dogs all my life has lead me to care and appreciate pets into my adult life. Looking to take care of the ones who love us the most for you. I am currently a full time music educator during the weekdays so I am available after school to walk and pet sit on an hourly basis. On Fridays and weekends I am also available for over night care as needed. In your home I will abide by all rules and routines you may have already. I can also ensure consistent care and attention to your pet’s needs.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and compassion for animals. I have a naturally calm, patient personality and a true desire to make every pet feel safe, understood, and cared for. I pay close attention to each animal’s individual needs and routines, and I’m dedicated to giving them the same level of affection and respect I give my own pets. I currently work at a part time job as a hairstylist in training and a bartender some days but i’m very flexible with my schedule I have a safe pet fence around my garden, i never let my dogs out my eyesight when they are going outside (they are small maltese dogs). When i will take care of clients pets I will ask if they have any preferences such as food, certain treats, allergies, or medication i need to be aware of. If any of the pets have a certain medical condition I will make sure the dog or cat is safe in my care and is comfortable with me
About: I've had three dogs in my life. One turned 17 this year. She's a happy old lady but does require some medications that I have learned to administer and I make sure they are given on time and properly. I enjoy taking my pups on long walks on nice days. Aside from my personal dogs I have spent time house and dog sitting for two other people with various different dog types with different personalities. For one of these people, she is also a dog sitter and I assisted her in one emergency situation where she needed needed me to stay the weekend and care for the five dogs in her care plus her two minor children. I work full time with set hours Monday - Friday. I'm free weekends. Early morning walks are easily done but afternoon walks are after 4. Depending on location, how close a location is to my job, I do have a 30min lunch where I can run out and give a quick walk. For my personal dog I tend to do a good long walk in the morning and another good long walk after 4 to make up for the long day. I've never worried about bathroom accidents with her. I love dogs. That's just a fact. I protect them anyway I can. I have gone out to look for neighborhood lost dogs, I have seen paw prints, but no shoe prints, in the snow during a snow storm and I went out searching for what I was sure was a lost escaped dog. Before leaving my house, I do a scan to make sure there's nothing dangerous out that my dog could access, hanging cords, small items, loose treats, etc... to make sure she's always safe.
“Kelly did a great job taking care of our two cats! Followed instructions and easy to communicate with. Booked her last minute and it worked out great. Will definitely be using her in the future to take care of our girl :)”
“John has been great with Toby. He’s reliable, pays close attention to the details, and takes good care of him during drop-in visits for feeding and potty breaks. Toby is always happy to see him. I feel very comfortable having John care for him and would definitely recommend him.”
About: I have several years of experience caring for both pets and children. While working as a nanny for multiple families, I was also responsible for their dogs, making sure they were well-fed, exercised, and happy. This gave me hands-on experience with daily walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. At home, I am a proud cat owner, so I also understand the unique needs of cats and how to provide them with the right care and attention. I am patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s walking a dog, keeping a pet company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. have a very flexible schedule. Sunday Mondays and Tuesdays I am super available. Most mornings before 10 am I’m free and I sometimes work from home. My schedule is adjustable, I can often adapt to different needs during the week. The care I provide always depends on each pet parent’s instructions, since every animal has unique needs and routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them regular walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. Safety is always my first priority whether that means keeping doors secured, watching carefully on walks, or following special feeding instructions. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, so pet parents can feel fully at ease while they are away.

Sarah was an excellent sitter for my shy cat while I was away for a couple of days. She came over to meet him and learn the ropes, took care feeding him and cleaning up after him, and was perfectly communicative and trustworthy. I knew he was in good hands the whole time I was gone. Thank you Sarah!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our two cats! She took care of them for 6 weeks and was absolutely wonderful the entire time, reliable, flexible, and clearly treated our cats like her own. She kept the litter boxes clean, fed them on schedule, and made sure they got plenty of playtime so they never felt lonely. What really stood out was how communicative she was, she sent us photo updates every single visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, healthy cats. Highly, highly recommend her, we’ll definitely be booking her again!
Sofia has done drop-in kitty visits for us two years in a row now for our week long summer vacation and did and excellent job with all of the details. We got daily pics, everything was kept clean, and our kitties were content when we returned. She was even able to accommodate a last-minute request to visit earlier on our day of return, which was a big help to us. Having someone as reliable and caring as Sofia really put our minds at ease so we could enjoy our time away.
Anita was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Mila, during her drop-in visits this past weekend. Mila is currently recovering from a tail injury and has to wear a cone, so we were especially nervous about leaving her, but Anita was incredibly attentive, patient, and caring throughout the entire stay. She went above and beyond what we booked her for — on Saturday she stayed extra time with Mila to make sure she was comfortable, and she even hand-fed her to encourage her to eat. It was clear from her updates that she genuinely cared about Mila’s wellbeing and comfort. Mila also clearly loved her and was excited to see her during the visits, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Anita provided detailed drop-in notes, great communication, and very clear photos after each visit, which we really appreciated. She also brought in our packages for us, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. We’re so grateful for the care and attention Anita gave Mila and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!
Emma is such a thoughtful and caring sitter. She communicates so well and truly stepped up and helped me out in a stressful time. Having a last minute, long trip come up was made easier knowing someone who loves cats and is responsible was helping me out in my apartment and with my cat. Emma even left some extra treats for both my pets and myself. She is so wonderful! Lulu loves her and we are so thankful to have found her.

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 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.

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.
