“Arden was perfect for us! She came for a meet and greet and I was immediately comfortable with her. Our cats are shy and she was very gentle with them. She sent pictures everyday and made sure we were comfortable not being home. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”
“Theresa was fantastic! She did her best to make sure beans was as taken care of as possible in our absence. I would absolutely recommend her if you need someone to take care of your furry friend.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm, and at one point we had 12 indoor dogs, from tiny Yorkies to Great Danes. They were never “just pets” to us; they were family, and that’s how I’ve always believed animals should be treated. I’ve also cared for cats and have experience dog sitting, so I’m comfortable looking after pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for yours the same way I’d care for my own. I take classes two days a week and spend the rest of my time at home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention and care. I'm also available most weekends, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I'll follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions provided by the owner and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the love and companionship they deserve. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“chloe was amazing! she took care of our mira for five days while we were up north! i was so anxious about leaving her but chloe made me feel worlds better about it. she is attentive, responsive, tidy and sends photos of the animals in her care while you are away! she left our home as clean as it was when she arrived!! we are very thankful for her and will be booking with her again!!”
“Madalyne went above and beyond to take care of our cat who was injured before we left. She made us feel so comfortable being gone. Can’t thank her enough! We will definitely hire her again!!”
“Sarah was amazing! She took incredible care of our cat and he warmed to her instantly. We would happily entrust Sarah again with the care of our furry loved one. Additionally, my partner ended up getting really sick which delayed the start to our trip (and cat care). Sarah was so flexible and understanding! Highest Rec!”
“Melanie impressed me from the start! This was the first time leaving my two kittens (5 months) over the weekend. But I felt 100% comfortable with Melanie, from our meet and greet through the end of my time away. I would recommend her for sure.”
About: Within my 20 years of vast experience with animals. I currently have three dogs of my own and have fostered dogs as well as rescued abandoned cats. I'm a certified dog groomer as well as currently working on my certification for animal massage therapy that will include dogs, cats, and horses. I currently am working full-time so as of right now I'm available 10:am - 1:pm. weekdays and after 4:30 p.m.. I always use precaution and safety measures when taking care of animals. I will follow all instructions from the owner. I currently have three dogs myself and previously have owned cats and ferrets, so I'm well aware of precautions and safety issues to prevent anything from happening.
About: I have always loved caring for animals, my pets or not. I have more experience with cats and dogs, and can work with reptiles, amphibians, and birds as well. I used to own my pet sitting business, exclusive to my former apartment complex. I have cared for animals with various health issues and am comfortable taking on the extra responsibility. I am adaptable to how you love your pet. I work from home but I do have a flexible schedule. I could on very rare occasion, host your pet. I am available Sunday, Thursday-Saturday. I am consistent with schedules and I am punctual. I am adaptable to how you care for you pet, plus some extra love. I am very mindful of any specific type of pet and I do research before each sit. I am loving and also respectful is the pet is not affectionate.

“Erica was literally the best sitter a dog parent could ask for. Gave great notice if she couldn’t make it, was amazing with our puppy as they became great friends. No issues what so ever. If we could hire her forever we would! She was fantastic for the last 5 months!”
“Andrew did a great job watching and taking care of my cat. He provided very detailed information on well-being of my cat, who had troubles with appetite, and adjusted food as asked to ensure she is still eating. Overall, I was happy with his service.”
“Caili is a very comfortable person. She was great with the cats and she has excellent communication skills. Everything went smoothly but I trust her judgment if there was an emergency. I cannot recommend Caili enough.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Novi
Chloe was great! She was communicative, send such sweet photos that showed my cats clearly loved her and took care of my cats really well. She even warned me when she was worried my cat was getting sick before I returned, which I really appreciate. I would absolutely contact her again.
Becky was Wonderful! If I could give her more than 5 Stars I absolutely would. From the moment I met her I was instantly comfortable. My cat, who usually hides from most everyone, came to greet her almost immediately which completely put me at ease. The whole time we were gone on our trip Becky stayed in touch, sent pictures and gave us updates. She even brought in our mail, any packages that were delivered and put our outdoor trash can away after trash day. More importantly she was amazing with our very picky cat. And, she left some toys as a little gift for our cat which was such a nice surprise to us! I very HIGHLY recommend booking Becky for your pet care!! Thank you so much Becky! We will definitely be booking you again for our next trip! :)
Ian was absolutely wonderful with my cat! He came to the house every single day, took the time to play and engage with kitty, and kept me completely in the loop. His communication was stellar from start to finish. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my timid cat was in such caring, reliable hands. I will definitely be booking him again!
I had a great experience with Stephanie. This was my first time leaving my cat alone for several days, and I was understandably nervous, but she did an excellent job and quickly put me at ease. She was reliable, communicative, and very attentive to Bagel’s needs. She made sure he was eating, drinking, and using the litter normally, and she took the time to observe his behavior rather than forcing interaction. Bagel is a cautious cat, but he became more comfortable over the course of the visits. I really appreciated the updates and knowing that Bagel was calm, safe, and well cared for in his own home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and would highly recommend her, especially for shy or sensitive pets.

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.

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 .

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 .
