“We can home early due to heavy rains and flooding at our camp site and yerim left late at like 1 in the morning she was very kind and gracious about the whole incident thank you Yerim!!”
“This was the 2nd time we have used Vivian. And we are so grateful to have someone so reliable to watch our kitties. She went above and beyond, even bringing a new toy over for the boys to play with. We will be for sure using her services again on our upcoming trips!”
“I asked Saul to watch my two cats, Lola and Bennie, on a very short notice. Saul answered me in a timely fashion and was able to accept my short-notice booking. Saul really saved me here, as my last resort was to send my cats to a boarding, something I really did not want to do. As always, Saul messaged me and sent me many photos of my cats during his stay. I completely trust Saul with my cats and can always feel relieved to know that my cats are safe and being well taken care of. Saul updates me several times a day to let me know how my cats are doing in terms of eating, playing, and their litter boxes. When I come home from my trips, I am always satisfied to see that my house has also been well taken care of, and completely clean. Saul is completely professional and an excellent pet sitter. I would like for no other person to watch my cats than him! He is amazing at what he does and truly cares for animals. Anyone is lucky to have him as a pet sitter.”
About: Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I am officially certified in Pet CPR through the RECOVER Initiative—the evidence-based gold standard developed by veterinary emergency specialists. Lifelong pet lover specializing in patient, low-stress drop-in care for senior dogs and cats in the comfort of their home. I understand that aging pets need extra patience, steady footing, and a gentle, familiar routine rather than high-energy commotion. What to expect from my visits: • Senior Dog Care: Unhurried backyard let-outs, careful support with mobility/stairs, fresh water, and gentle, calm companionship. • Cat Visits: Quiet, boundary-respecting drop-ins, thorough litter box maintenance, and personalized feeding routines. • Weekday Walks (Small to Medium Dogs): Calm, one-on-one 30-minute neighborhood strolls tailored for small and medium pups (up to 40 lbs). Perfect for gentle midday exercise, mental stimulation, and consistent potty routines while you’re at work. For safety and comfort, walks are strictly private (no pack walks) using standard leashes and secure harnesses. • Health & Details: Strict adherence to medication schedules, special diets, and precise owner instructions. • Peace of Mind: Punctual check-ins, home security vigilance, and detailed photo updates from every single visit. Pet care fits naturally into my flexible freelance schedule, meaning your pets get unhurried, focused attention during every visit. My Rover calendar is always kept up to date. walkers. • Drop-In Visits (7 Days/Week): Flexible morning, afternoon, and evening visits. Ideal for cats and dogs needing meals, medication, potty breaks, and companionship. • Dog Walking (7 Days/Week): Calm neighborhood walks tailored to your dog's pace and energy level. Best suited for small-to-medium pups and gentle leash-walkers. Your home’s security and your pet’s well-being are my top priorities. • Strictly follow feeding, fresh water, medication, and cleanup routines. • Always double-check exterior doors, gates, and locks before leaving. • Practice attentive outdoor safety: short leashes, checking pavement temperature, and steering clear of unfamiliar off-leash dogs. • Every visit ends with a visual safety check, followed by detailed notes and photos for your peace of mind.
“Tamara did a fantastic job while watching my cat over the holidays. I truly cannot say enough good things about her! This was my first time leaving my cat on his own and I was a little worried but she eased all my fears by keeping me up to date with lots of pictures and videos. I strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life and loved taking care of them growing up and have always had a soft spot for all types of animals. I’ve had quails, cats, lovebirds, and dogs. I currently have two sneaky little cats. Working from home has it upsides and downsides! It gets boring being cooped up all day! I make sure to keep my days interesting and find that going on walks or meeting new cute pets keeps me sane! I have a been a pet sitter for my whole family when they are away from home varying from kitties, doggos, to birds. I have come to realize that furry friends are my favorite types of friends!
About: I have a lot of experience watching all types of animals all ages and sizes and will treat every single animal like they are my own animal! I currently only have classes on mondays for half of the day and the rest of the time i am free to care and watch your animals! I will treat your home and animals with the same respect i would at my own house with my own animals because i know it can be nerve racking to have someone new in your house with your babies
About: I've been a dedicated cat owner for several years and currently care for two cats with very different personalities and needs. I have experience with daily feeding routines, fresh water, litter box maintenance, play and enrichment, monitoring behavior and appetite, and following individualized care routines. One of my cats is an energetic young cat who requires plenty of play, supervision, and attention, while my older cat has a completely different personality and routine. Caring for both has taught me how important it is to recognize individual personalities, respect a cat's boundaries, and pay attention to changes in behavior or routine. I understand that leaving your cat at home can be stressful, so I strive to provide reliable, attentive care while keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages. I'm happy to follow your cat's specific feeding, medication, play, and care instructions so they can stay comfortable and happy while you're away! I’m currently working part-time and can drop in to check on your kitties and make sure they’re not causing too much mischief! Just let me know what you expect when I enter your home! I’ll make sure doors and windows remain secure so your babies don’t get hurt.
“Best sitter I had so far! Very meticulous and detail oriented; got a daily detailed rover card that includes what was done for that day with multiple photos (20+ photos)! My cat looked very comfortable throughout the visits. Even brought her own trash bag to clean the litter out daily to keep the house clean throughout. I felt very reassured that my cat was in good hands!! Would definitely hire again next time when I need a sitter!”
About: I have been responsible for pet care since I was a child, I grew up in a house with 3+ dogs at any given time. I was taught to treat animals with the kindness and respect that you would a human being! I adopted my current dog 2 years ago! I am a student at Cal State Fullerton currently on summer break, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your cats and dogs! I have always been a very cautious and cleanly person, and leaving your home and your pet better than how I found it it my top priority! I have no trouble cleaning up after animals and it’s important to me that I treat your pet and your home with respect.
“Thank you Wen for such attentive care for my two cats while I was away! Wen truly went above and beyond, sending lots of pics and videos and taking care of other things around my house. This was my first time using Rover and Wen ensured it was a positive experience. HIGHLY recommend!! 🤩”
About: I have had dogs my entire life have loved taking care of them. I have always taken initiative to do daily walks, grooming, baths, and enriching play. While I currently do not have a dog of my own, I often babysit my parents' dog and sister's dog. This has given be experience caring for puppies and hyperactive pups! I'm currently working in ABA and this gives me the flexibility I need to do what I love, care for your pets! I will not leave your pup alone for more than 3 hours at a time, and have plenty of time to care for them during the day. I live in a spacious studio apartment with plenty room for a crate, even for large dogs. Also, I live near a park that is prefect for taking walks!
“Betsy is super friendly and responsible! Kept me updated throughout the day and sent pictures and videos of our cats while we were gone. I will definitely look for her for our next trip out of town 😻”
About: I’ve had three cats almost my entire life, and have watched friends’ and neighbors’ cats so I am well versed in making sure they have the care they need! This past year, I got a handful of dog sitting gigs including two hyper golden retrievers and a senior terrier. I’m currently a full time college student home from break looking for something to do to help pay for school! I have full availability open! I am a big rule follower! Please let me know what care your animals need in your home and I’ll follow it to a T.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Olive
Yerim was amazing with our cat while we were on vacation. She was so thoughtful and caring with our shy cat! You can tell she really loves animals! Our cat is shy but by the end of the trip he was greeting Yerim at the door purring! She is also great at communicating and responds very quickly. We loved all the photos and videos she sent of our kitty while we were gone! We knew he was in great hands while we were away. I would 100% book her again!
Cabe is a top-notch cat sitter. Our cats are very shy, but with gentle attention and patience, Cabe was able to gain their trust. He truly understands cat behavior and clearly has a lot of experience with cats, not to mention he is a cat owner himself. We got thoughtful, daily updates with photos on his visits. All basic tasks were well taken care of and he even helped me with one small outdoor task with our garden. If you're looking for a cat sitter, look no further. Cabe will be our first choice every time! Thanks again, Cabe!
Sarah was AMAZING!! So communicative and eager to go above and beyond for my kitty. My cat doesn’t like new people and Sarah was extremely patient and understanding of her needs. She gave a play by play of what was going on, and offered to clean up the litter and hairball/vomit which happened while she was checking on my cat. Will absolutely book again, and I’d recommend Sarah to anyone needing a drop in sitter.
Went on a river trip with limited internet service and didn't worry about my 2 cats at all while I was gone knowing they were in Andreas care. She fed them, pet them, scooped their litter and sent photos the whole time I was gone. Highly recommend! Thank you Andrea!
Vivian is the absolute best! She’s been caring for our kitties, Jules and Vinnie, since they were little, and they absolutely adore her. Knowing they get so much love and attention when we’re away gives us complete peace of mind. We’re incredibly grateful for her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!
Chandler took excellent care of our senior cat Chonky. She was very attentive to Chonky's needs. She gave him amply play time, brushed him and pet him. She also took care of feeding, giving him water top ups, taking out the trash, cleaning the dishes and litter boxes. She also vacuumed the tracked litter off the floor. We definitely recommend Chandler for your cat care needs!
We went on a trip for a few days and Karyn helped us care for our 5-year old cat, Luna. Karyn is compassionate and loving, who takes great care of Luna. Karyn communicates well and is very responsive. We are 100% satisfied and we would recommend her service to friends.
Akiera was absolutely exceptional. From the start, she was professional, responsive, and clearly experienced with cats. She kept us updated consistently with photos and detailed messages, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was calm, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her presence. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. I would confidently recommend Akiera to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and attentive cat sitter. We will definitely be booking her again.

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.

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.
