About: I’ve enjoyed taking care of my friends pets while they’re away from home so much I’d like to have the opportunity to help others too! I love meeting new pets and learning about their personalities and what they need. I work from home and have time before work starts to help take care of another pet in the morning outside of my home. I can let them out on a quick lunch break too. After work is around 5. I can let the dog outside in a fenced yard or take them out on the leash. Feed in the morning before work and after work.
“Thanks so much for checking on my little guy on short notice and getting his litter cleaned! Next time I can try to arrange to have you meet in advance and perhaps he will recognize you more easily as one of his many beloved food bringers. ;)”
“Haley is a conscientious and kind pet sitter! It gave us great peace of mind to have Haley look in our cats. She She sent lots of updates and photos and was very communicative. And we know our little ones were in great hands!”
“I booked Sydney when my pup was on crate rest after an IVDD injury and I needed someone to come check on her while I was at work and administer her medications. My dog is not an easy pill taker and Sydney did a fabulous job every time. It was such a relief to have Sydney there to check on my baby. I have already re-booked her to play and potty my pup while I’m at work!”
“We had a wonderful experience! Amelia took excellent care of our dog while we were on vacation. She sent us lots of pictures which gave us peace of mind. She took her on lots of walks. It was very clear that our dog was very comfortable and happy and very well cared for. We would definitely recommend her if anyone is looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl!”
“Carly did a great job with twelve days of drop in care for our puppy! Carly communicated well and took care of all her needs. They played inside and out as well as mixing it up with short walks. Allie was very well taken care of and we would definitely book her again!”
“Kirsten was able to drop in twice with a short notice for my two pups. She sent fun pictures and updates while she was checking on them. She was super quick to respond and we will definitely request her again!”
“Hollea has been doing drop in visits for us for several months. She is very reliable, shows up a few minutes early to get any instructions and then takes great care of our dogs. When we had to suddenly put our one of them down, she came over to say good bye and then stayed, making sure I was calm and ok. She is just amazing! Our other dog, Chesna loves when she comes. She is all body wiggles and smiles. I 100% recommend Hollea.”
“Des was wonderful! Even when the garage code wasn't working and the house heating was acting up, she was diligent to keep me informed and resolve issues. She is a 10 out of 10! Our normally distrustful cats warmed up to her and looked forwarded to her visits.”
“Meranda did an awesome job with my cat! She left thoughtful messages every day about how he was doing and what they did together. She gave him lots of attention and even indulged him speaking with her through buttons!”

Amelia did such a great job! 10/10 would recommend her for all your pet sitting needs. I booked her with not much notice for an entire week, and she was extremely accommodating! My girls loved her and were clearly well looked after, her photos and updates were great, and she left my place spotless. I will absolutely be asking her to come back again! :)
It was great to have Sydney care for our cat while we were out of town! She was professional and prompt with her communication, forward thinking, and showed true care for our cat. We enjoyed seeing the daily pictures she sent. Sydney was even willing to bring in a package that arrived at our house while we were out of town! We will definitely look to have Sydney care for our cat again the next time we go out of town!
Raquel went above and beyond with our kitty! She was thoughtful, helpful, and dependable while we were away . It gave us peace of mind on our trip to have someone trusted checking in on our pet. We all looked forward to seeing the Rover cards for each visit and she took some extremely cute photos of our cat that we saved. I would highly recommend Raquel!
Brittany was so amazing!! Truly went above and beyond at each visit and even took my buddy on an emergency trip to the vet after getting into some trouble without any hesitation. Brittany was the best sitter Cannoli has had thus far and I plan to consider her as my first choice for future trips.

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
