“We had to travel unexpectedly for a family emergency and Laura was able check in with Lucy on such short notice. We ended up extending our trip twice and Laura was very kind to continue watching Lucy. During this difficult time, it was so nice to know that Lucy was being cared for and to know I didn’t have to worry about her. Thank you so much, Laura!”
“Chelsea did an amazing job watching our two cats for 12 days! She administered medicine every day to both Hank and Zozo and she regularly checked/cleared the LitterRobot. She ALSO kept the outdoor food/water fresh and filled for our local strays. Chelsea communicated with me daily and sent cute photos/stories of our cats. I am incredibly grateful for how well she cared for them! I can’t recommend Chelsea enough and will be using her again for future trips!”
About: Pets have been a big part of my life, and I know the difference between a pet who is just being watched and one who is truly cared for. I currently share my home with a cat, so daily care is second nature to me: feeding on schedule, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and the small routines cats count on.Especially Anxious (i know when your gargoyle wants to lurk-and when the rubs are needed. I’ve had two dogs, and both taught me a lot. My first, Ed, was an 80-pound American Foxhound rescued as a suspected abandoned hunting dog who had never lived indoors. Together we worked through house training, leash manners (no more yanking), a fear of stairs (which involved carrying him up three flights until he stopped being scared), and a distaste for rain. His name was not what he was rescued with, but he was clearly always an Ed. With my second dog, Kovu, I spent a lot of time on socialization with other dogs and on keeping him calm and quiet when left alone. Because of that, I’m patient with nervous, rigid, big dogs, and dogs still learning the rules. I know that consistency and a calm presence go a long way. All Creatures Welcome! Friends have long turned to me for help with their pets, whether furry, scaly, feathered, or creepy-crawly. I’m happy to talk through any pet’s needs, so ask me about yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet before booking. Send me a message and tell me about them! I am a remote worker with a need for reliable wifi more than happy to drop-in, sleepover, or sit for a while with my laptop on your couch. Clear updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away Strict adherence to your pet’s feeding, medication, and walking routines A calm, patient approach tailored to your pet’s personality
“Clay was absolutely phenomenal when it came to cat sitting my cat, Itty Bitty. She is typically very shy, but when Clay came over to meet her for the first time, she was immediately smitten with him. She just wanted all the love and attention, which made me feel completely at ease. Itty Bitty struggles with separation anxiety, but she had no issues while I was away. In fact, she didn’t even seem bothered by my absence because of the exceptional care she received from Clay. Clay always stayed in touch, sending frequent updates and plenty of pictures. You can truly tell that he has a good soul and genuinely cares for and loves every animal he meets. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: Hello Rover Community! Wonderful to meet you all virtually! My Name is Hana, I’m 27 years old living in the Northern VA area. I provide daily dog walks, in home visits, overnight care in your home as well as cat services ! I’ve had experience with pet care for over 12 years and do have many reviews from past clients if needed. I do have a 14 year old pet and have experience with senior pet care as well. Fluent in both English and Spanish, currently working from home so communication and flexibility will not be an issue. Looking forward to caring for your pets! I’ve been working remotely for over 5 years and am very flexible when it comes to pet care. I’m off on the weekends and will prioritize time for your pets when needed. I have an older dog that keeps to herself and will probably do her own thing when caring for your dog. If there are special requests needs for your dog, I will do my best to follow.
About: Looking for a sitter that can accompany anxiety separation pets? Well I'm the perfect fit for that! I may not be a professional, a vet, or certified in expertise fields, but one things for sure is that I will be very attentive to your pets needs and give them all the attention and affection while you're gone! I'm very diligent in my work and will follow strictly based on what you tell me your pet needs, whether that is a special food accommodation, medication and walking habits, my overall goal is to make sure you arrive back with a happy pet! I have experience with Senior dogs and their special diets + medications. I am recently learning about how younger dogs behave so be patient with me as I will ask you a lot of questions. I am very open to learning more. I've been around cats for most of my life and have a deep understanding of their body language and time it takes to form trust. I will be very patient with your cat and let them feel safe with my calm presense! I will follow through any diet accommodations and keep their litter box and environment tidy. I also have a new found love for bunnies and have learned their diets, their needs and personalities. If there by any chance be an outlier bunny owner seeking a sitter, I hope you pick me 🙏 my love for bunnies is huge and it would be an honor to take care of one from Rover at one point! I am currently seeking a job so I have the time to accompany anxiety separation dogs, have play sessions, provide full attunement and give any medications on time. I make sure your dog or cat gets fed exactly within the time range you requested, same with dog walks. For dogs that try to escape, I make sure I'm double checking the dog while carefully opening / closing the door. I check on hiding cats to ensure they're okay.
“Rosemary A. was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our beloved cat and our home! She sent lots of pictures (which we loved!) and it was clear from the pictures that our cat was very comfortable and happy around her from Day One. Our cat is on a special diet, and Rosemary was most conscientious in adhering to the feeding plan. And not only is she professional and highly competent, she is a warm and delightful person. We will definitely hire Rosemary A. again. Thank you, Rosemary!”
“Emaan was amazing. She was very attentive to the needs of our cat and went above and beyond our expectations. She definitely will be called upon again to help us with our cat. I am so glad we found her.”
About: I currently work part-time about four days a week, usually from 9–3 or 10–3, and my work hours are fairly flexible as well. Outside of those hours, my schedule is pretty flexible and I have plenty of availability for cat sitting, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I’m also happy to work around your cat’s normal routine and feeding schedule as much as possible. Cats are creatures of routine, so whenever possible, I recommend having them cared for in their own home while their owners are away. Being able to stay in a familiar environment with their usual smells, hiding spots, and routine can help make the experience less stressful for them. When I’m caring for your cat, I try to keep their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I’ll follow any instructions you leave for feeding, litter, medications, playtime, and anything else that’s part of their normal day. I’m also very careful around doors and entryways, especially with cats who are curious or like to try to sneak outside. I’ll respect your cat’s space and let them decide how much interaction they’re comfortable with rather than forcing attention. I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away so you can see how they’re doing.
“Kristen was very professional and communicative. She kept me updated the entire time and loved on both my cats while I was away! It was great knowing my cats were in good hands.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! She went above and beyond caring for our cats while we were away. Her updates were amazing, detailed, consistent, and full of photos that truly put my mind at ease. She took the best photos too! You can tell she’s incredibly caring and genuinely loves animals. Ash and nacho warmed up to her right away, which says everything! Nacho is hesitant on anyone but loved her from the meet and greet. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve owned pets my whole life. I adopted my cat after finding him during college and we currently live with two other cats and a lizard. I grew up with the most wonderful dogs from the time they were puppies until they grew old. I also grew up with bearded dragons, hamsters, frogs, and fish and frequently care for the other pets in my household. I love animals and look forward to getting to know yours! I am a dance and theater teacher! My availability is usually until around 12 on weekdays and after 8:30 on week nights. Wednesday mornings I am less available but if a long term sitter was needed, I have many others who may be able to help during that time! Weekends, I could come earlier in the morning on Saturdays and in the afternoons with times varying from 1-6:00 depending on if I am running birthdays that week. Sundays, I am typically more available, occasionally having a birthday or midday show. I am not currently available to provide boarding at my house, as I have three cats that openly roam and may not be happy about unexpected visitors joining them.
About: I have experience caring for my own dog at home. Now that I moved states I would love to help other people with their doggies! I go to school part time and have Friday-Sunday off. Since my schedule is just classes, I spend most of my time at home reading for class. I have plenty of time to care for doggies and take them for walks around my complex. There is a dog park behind my apartment that I would be happy to take your dog to! I have no other pets at home.
About: Hello! I’m Catalina. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I love creating a mix of adventure and comfort for them, whether it’s a hike, a long walk, or a relaxing movie night afterwards. My building has a great dog park with lots of toys, so pups get plenty of space and stimulation. I’m available on weekends and always make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. Your baby will get lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles with me! I have availability in the afternoons and weekends. During the weekend I can spend the whole day with them and also at night or dog care. I don’t have dogs or cats in my home , so it will be easy if someone needs me to stay at my place with their dog/cat.
“This was my first time hiring Skylar, and what a great choice! He took great care of my cat and gave her tons of love and snuggles while I was away. Will definitely go with Skylar again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Hill
Paige was wonderful with our cat, Lilly! This was our second time having her watch Lilly while we were away, and once again, we had a great experience. Paige is dependable, communicative, and takes great care of her. She kept us updated during our trip and gave us peace of mind knowing Lilly was in good hands. We’re so glad to have found someone we can trust and would absolutely recommend Paige to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Allison was so great with our cats - responsive, communicative, and proactive! Couldn't ask for anything more in a cat sitter. We came home and our cats didn't seem desperately starved for affection, so I know they were in good hands with Allison when we were gone!
Ainsley did an amazing job checking in on my cats while I was on vacation. She got to know them and was very sweet and caring. She also kept litter and food areas very clean and took good care of my home. Thank you, Ainsley! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
Jessica was the perfect pet sitter for our senior kitty while we were away. The old lady had her worst illness and first emergency vet trip at 17 yrs old the week before we left the country for two weeks. Jessica was so kind to monitor her food intake, potty status (and do some clean up), and give her meds while we were away. We are so grateful!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
