“Cecilia was the absolute best with taking care of my two cats and looking after my property while I was away. Her professionalism and attention to detail was outstanding, and she was always quick to send me updates about my little ones. I will definitely be hiring her again as she is trustworthy and enjoys the work she was being provided.”
“Matthew is an excellent pet sitter. He takes wonderful care of my cats, always very attentive and playful with them. He provides timely communication and great photos. Matthew is my go-to. Book him now! 10/10 recommendation”
“Ashley was great and so sweet to my kitty! She sent pics everyday and made sure he had food, water and outside play time! She even came over for a meet and greet before so I could introduce her to my cat. Will definitely be using her again :)”
“Our cat Moo Goo loves having Rebecca visit. She is so caring and sweet to our kitty! Rebecca makes us feel secure going out of town and knowing Moo Goo will be well looked after.”
“Dana is a gem! She took incredible care of my cats and made my place look better than when she showed up! She thoroughly cleaned all the litter and made friends with my cat and always got freshwater as well… Like clockwork every morning and evening… 10 stars as far as I’m concerned! Thank you so much, Dana… Highly highly recommend her!”
“Aubree did a phenomenal job looking after our 2 cats while my husband and I were away for a week! Our cats are very shy around new people and will usually hide...so I was shocked to get pictures from Aubree on day 1 of BOTH of our cats coming out to say hi to her! As the week progressed they warmed right up, which is very telling...cats know a cat person! ;). Our cats were not on their best behavior (throwing up on a rug and shattering one of their food bowls) but Aubree took care of it all. I highly recommend her. Thank you, Aubree!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and haven’t looked back! We currently have two dogs, 7 & 1, Shiloh and Shepherd. I raised a puppy with my sister and most recently Shepherd who is a retriever/poodle mix. I am currently building a small business but it is very flexible. I can be available every day at any hour and would love overnights, weekends and longer term stays! I will treat them as my own. We will spend a lot of time together. I love taking walks and having a furry friend with me. I want them to feel as safe and secure with you gone as possible. I will provide daily photo and text updates so you can see what fun we've been having. I will bring in the mail, take out the trash, and water plants as well.
“She took such good care of my kitty, champagne, super last minute and managed to squeeze me in during a busy holiday. Grateful for her services and I will use her in the future.”
“Sarah is excellent! She’s a very responsive and took great care of my cats while I was away on holidays. Would definitely recommend her as a responsible and friendly sitter.”
About: I love spending time with animals and going on long walks. I’ve cared for friends’ and family’s pets, making sure they feel safe, loved, exercised, and happy while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide attentive care for your pets. I’m available for house sitting throughout the week and can accommodate walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship. I know every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to follow any instructions you provide to make them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll respect your home’s rules, stick to your pet’s schedule, and keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can have peace of mind.
About: I have always had pets in the home. I have watched a lot of animals over the years & I even make sure the family comes back to a clean home. You wont even know I was there. I currently only work part time from 8 AM - 2 PM so there is plenty of time to play with the dogs/cats. I don't do much on the weekends so I would be at the house most of the time! I live with 2 dogs myself now & I love to cuddle with them & play. I currently do not watch dogs in my own home but would love to come to yours. This also helps so the dogs/cats are comfortable in their own space.
“Sarah has been an incredible carer for our two cats. She spends quality time with my aging darling cat, Sophie, and meets our sometimes hiding, sometimes curious, sometimes frisky cat, George, wherever he is that day. She has great communication. We trust that our animals are in great hands when we’re away.”
“My little girl felt instantly comfortable with Abby and that increased over the days. I decided to not board my pup and let her have the comfort of home, and it was the right decision. Abby is considerate, observant, playful and leaves really comforting notes.”
About: Experienced veterinary technician of 7 years now promoted to stay at home mom. Allowing me the capability to provide to those pets who need care throughout the day and evenings. I offer in home boarding / day care. Pets must be cat friendly and non aggressive towards children. I have a 2 year old daughter who adores animals and has been raised to be respectful of animal boundaries and loving towards all. I am trained on administration of medications / insulin. And can provide specialized care for those with medical conditions. I accept all ages (puppies-seniors) of all breeds. Drop in visits / walks are available as well! I am a stay at home mom who can provide all day care for your baby while you are away. Frequent potty breaks, playtime and snuggle time! We have a fenced in back yard, and will crate the dog if requested by the owner. Some pets really enjoy the security that the crate provides and I am respectful of all pet parents choices.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Old Hickory
Jennifer is amazing!! Really goes above and beyond. My cats loved her so much that they didn’t really care when I came back from my trip lol. She even took the trash out for me which was so nice. She is very thoughtful and sent me pictures of the cats as well.
Brian was amazing! He gave our old Bulldog and our old cat lots of love and attention during his visits. He sent us photos every day showing how well our pets were taken care of. Every detail of care was taken care of; he treated our pets like they were his own.
Morgan was literally the best. One of our cats was diagnosed with diabetes just a couple weeks before we went out of town and Morgan was quick to learn how to give him his insulin and make sure both of our cats were alive and well taken care of the whole time we were gone!! We've never had to hire a cat sitter before so this was an incredible first experience. We're so thankful for her & can't wait to have her back!

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 .
