“Ellen was great! She was always on time and shared lord of pictures during the visits. She made sure our puppy got enough playtime before leaving :)”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends for many years. I love to play with the kitties, go on walks with the pups and just generally hang out with your furry friends! I work about 30 hours a week in food service, usually between 8am-5pm. My job is close to my house so I don’t have much of a commute either. So I have ample time to check in/hang out/go on walks with any of your furry friends! I am clean, tidy and will leave it how I found it! I like my own environment to be neat as well. Cat toys on the floor are fine tho!
“Molly and Caroline took great care of our cats when we were busy in the middle of a move and when we were away on a short trip. They were great with the cats and very nice. The cats loved them and enjoyed hanging out with them. We wholeheartedly recommend Molly and Caroline to anyone looking for a sitter for their fur babies.”
“Sydney and James were both so wonderful and took excellent care of our cats while we were out. They went above and beyond in their services and sent excellent pictures. We will certainly be using them again”
“This was my first time using Rover, and James made the entire process incredibly easy. Before I even booked, he took the time to explain how everything worked and answered all my questions, which helped me feel comfortable right away. During the first week of appointments, he continued to check in, guide me through the app, and make sure I knew what to expect. He visits three days a week to help socialize my very grumpy, very particular cat, and he’s been so patient with her. He gives her space when she needs it, tries gently to engage when she’s willing, and always makes sure she’s fed and cared for. He’s flexible, kind, and clearly committed to helping her warm up at her own pace. The photos he takes are great. They always capture her personality and the fun notes he leaves on each report card make the updates something I look forward to. His consistency and care have made a real difference, and I’m grateful to have found someone I trust.”
“Allyson took wonderful care of my puppy and was reliable, attentive, and communicative throughout each visit. I really appreciated the thoughtful check-ins and updates, and she made sure my puppy got plenty of playtime, attention, and care. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in great hands while I was away. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Erin was wonderful! We have a recently diagnosed diabetic cat and have been anxious about leaving the house. Erin came and met our cat ahead of time to learn his needs and was very thorough to make sure that she could take care of our sweet boy. We felt confident in her ability to administer an insulin injection to our cat, and our two other skittish cats even came out for her! She sent plenty of photos of the babies, was prompt with her arrival, and actively communicated with us leading up to and during her visit. We will absolutely book with Erin again and will recommend her to friends and family.”
“Ann was an absolute rockstar with our last minute holiday booking. She responded very quickly to our messages and gave me peace of mind while being away from my girls. She had great patience with my anxious dog after a big move and worked with her to help her adjust. Will definitely book again! :)”
“Tyler was fantastic and we wood definitely book with him again! We appreciated the chance to speak with him through a pre-visit and introduce him to our pets. He was very communicative with us, and took great care to spend quality time with our pets during each visit. His photos brought smiles to our faces and allowed us to relax, knowing that our pets were receiving excellent care.”
“Jackie was absolutely amazing when it came to watching my boys for the week of Thanksgiving. It was my first time using Rover and I was initially very nervous and stressed. Jackie arranged a time for us to meet each other and the cats before my trip and go over their needs in person. She came every day as arranged and sent pics to keep me updated. She also brought in our mail which was so kind and helpful! Highly recommend and would happily have her watch my boys again in the future!”
“As always, Shandra does an amazing job taking care of my parrot Luna! She goes above and beyond to learn new skills and techniques for taking care of her, playing and training! I always feels so much more at ease going out of town when I know Shandra is available!”
“Carla is awesome, coming to the rescue with a last-minute cat visit when I had to leave town suddenly and giving them and my house the best care and me, peace of mind. I genuinely appreciate her flexibility and sweetness, and we would welcome her back anytime for future travels!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ohio City
Veronica has watched mittens a few times and I couldn’t recommend her enough! She is incredibly knowledgeable about cats and understands that every cat has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. She does a wonderful job making sure Mittens is happy and comfortable, and I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care. It’s such a comfort to have someone I can genuinely rely on when I’m away. She is dependable and I know mittens is in very good hands!
My partner and I just returned from a long weekend, and it was the first time ever leaving our little 13.5 yr old girl with anyone but very close friends. Stephanie and Michelle not only put my mind at ease during the initial meet-n-greet; I received daily updates, with photos. I cannot stress enough the anxiety I felt leading up to the trip. I needn’t have worried. I will book Stephanie and Michelle every time. Highly recommend.
Sydney and James were great and very responsive! They were very proactive about making sure they were getting the details right in caring for our boys. They were even very flexible about coming back an additional time to take care of our cats when our building security erroneously prevented them from entering the building one morning. Would highly recommend these two to anybody looking for cat sitters in the Cleveland area.
Jackie was absolutely wonderful! She communicated clearly, she was able to medicate my cat (who is really difficult to medicate), and she went above and beyond in caring for my 3 boys. She clearly cares about animals and my boys loved having her as a pet sitter. 10/10 would recommend, will be booking with her again!
Tyler was fantastic and we wood definitely book with him again! We appreciated the chance to speak with him through a pre-visit and introduce him to our pets. He was very communicative with us, and took great care to spend quality time with our pets during each visit. His photos brought smiles to our faces and allowed us to relax, knowing that our pets were receiving excellent care.
We had a wonderful experience with Elinor as our cat sitter! She was a great communicator from our initial request through her very last visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away on an extended trip. Our cats don't always come out for strangers, so we were especially happy to see that they warmed up to her enough to come out for treats and even play with her during some of her visits. She sent us cute photos and thoughtful updates each day, which we really appreciated and loved seeing while we were away. Our flight home was unexpectedly delayed, and she was incredibly flexible about adding an extra day with the girls. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. We would definitely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter!
Victoria was great! I did a meet and great with her before I left on vacation and she immediately put me at ease. She is very personable and professional when it comes to cat sitting. She sent me pictures and updates everyday she stopped by. I highly recommend 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 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.

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.
