“As always, Nicole took excellent care of my cats, including one who has a rather complicated array of medications for heart disease and another who needs thyroid medication. She made sure they received all their medications as well as food, water, litter boxes, and giving them some love in our absence. She is very responsible with the cats as well as the house.”
“Bridget was excellent with our cats and snake! She was very proactive in asking questions about the care needed by our pets. She communicated with us very promptly during visits and took the time to take a lot of photos of our babies for us. Overall, she was very kind and professional and we both knew our pets were in good hands. We’ll definitely be asking for her help again in the future!”
“Caitlin is wonderful and we appreciate the piece of mind of having her check in on our kittos while we're gone. She always checks in with an update and a picture or two and its nice to see their faces. Definitely recommend Caitlin to anyone!”
“Ashley is absolutely amazing. The weather was treacherous and she still managed to check in on my fur baby. Anytime I asked a question there was a quick response. I was very comfortable and had full trust in the service Ashley provided as well as having access to my home. I would use Ashley again for any services needed in the future.”
“Ashley is a lifesaver. this is our first visit with Ashley and everything went as planned which was a great piece of mind for me. Looking forward to many other visits from Ashley.”
“Jessica has done a great job with our 3 cats and bearded dragon when we went on vacation for a week! One of our cats is diabetic and needed insulin shots twice a day. Jessica made me feel so much better about leaving!! She is thorough, detailed and professional. She went above and beyond to take care of everything. I cannot recommend her enough and I will definitely be a return client ❤️”
“Amy was absolutely fantastic with my three cats while we were away for over a week. She was always on time, sent great pictures, was communicative, played with them each visit and really knew their personalities a few days in! I made a mistake with my dates and realized I would be back the day after I intended and Amy was exceptionally flexible with date changes and took care of my babies an extra day, which I’m so grateful for. We came home to three well fed, taken care of, happy and playful cats! Highly recommend Amy to take care of your furry babies!”
“Lorie did a phenomenal job taking care of my 5 precious kitties while I was away. She is a beautiful soul with an exceptionally kind and sparkly personality. She was really diligent about arriving as arranged and making sure the cats were tended to. I always looked forward to seeing the updates after she visited and she did a fabulous job of providing me with lots of pictures of my furry sweethearts. She was also very accommodating when our plans changed unexpectedly and patient when we had issues with our security system. I hope she would come back again to pet sit for us if needed in the future! Thank you again for everything, Lorie. You are wonderful!”

I work with cat with dogs too. I love animals they are soo much fun to play with. I love to cuddle with them at night and every time I have time after work. I will plaY and make sure if they need medicine I will give it to them . I will make sure they stay on the same schedule as the are use to as possible as I can. If they get dirty I will give them a bath. I am free to anytime after 745 am dropping kids to school. except for Fridays will be little harder at night. Other then that free. I have leads in the back years they can be safe in. They will have fun with the dog pool we got our 2 dogs. If they get muddy I will make sure they r clean after a fun playbtime.
“This was the first time I’ve hired a pet sitter for my two kitties. Brenda came daily to feed and give them lovin’. I was concerned about how my shy little guy would handle a stranger, but it didn’t take long and she was able to coax him out from under the bed. When I returned home I could tell that Brenda had done a wonderful job taking care of them. I would certainly use her again!”
“Makayla did an outstanding job, We were away on vacation for a whole week and had her look in on the animals/house twice a day. She proved herself to be very loving and responsible! She was able to follow a detailed list of rules and responsibilities & my animals took to her very quickly which is especially unusual for my cat! Highly recommend 10/10!”
“My cat takes a while to warm up to people. She normally hides when we have company over. This was our second time booking with Hannah and my cat appeared to be completely comfortable with her! No pictures were taken of her hiding under the bed she was greeting Hannah at the door everyday 💕”
About: I grew up dog sitting for my neighbor pretty often. They'd leave for trips every few months and I got to dog sit for them while they were away. Feeding, taking him out for potty, and occasionally going on walks too. Not to mention I've had dogs and cats of my own through the years so I'm pretty versed in pet care for most kinds of common pets. Currently i am working part time as a manager, so most often I am scheduled to work the second half of the week, but even then I can make pet visits before or after work. I keep them close on a leash when we go for walks, make sure not to over feed them, and I make sure to be sweet and patient with them during baths.
About: I have always loved and cared for animals with a serious passion, which is why I am a pet sitter. I have wonderful skills with caring for, training, and entertaining animals of all kinds! Animals have always taken a very keen liking to me, and are generally very obedient with me, even when told to expect otherwise by the owners! I have owned and cared for very high maintenance and high needs animals. I have years of experience with the fortunate friends with no problems, and I have years of experience with pets with special needs, examples being; blind, deaf, missing legs, mental conditions and pets who have had health conditions of all kinds. I have no preference to what kind of animals I care for, and I maintain the utmost love, affection, training, and care for each and every animal I watch over. I work as a private contractor and cosmetologist (yes, you read that right) which allows me to make my own schedule. I like to incorporate pet care into that schedule, because it’s a fulfilling use of my time. I am a highly qualified and experienced in-home worker, outside of pet care. I regularly enter clients homes and make it a strict point to ALWAYS leave it nicer than I found it. I will intentionally sweep a little more than just the mess I made providing a service, I will wash extra dishes if I used one and there are some there that need it. I follow directions with the same strictness, which makes me a great person to work with.
“I had a week long vacation that took me out of state, and I needed someone to care for my two cats for that to happen. I showed Jose my routine before I left, and she graciously stepped in while I was away. She kept me in the loop the entire time with daily pictures and took great care of them. She cleaned up after then too. You wont find a better and more trustworthy sitter. Thanks for the help Josie!”
“Nicole was very kind and communicative throughout the process. She spent time making sure my kitties were well taken care of, played with, and went the extra mile to bring in mail and leave a light on for when I came home. She is caring and kind and trustworthy.”
About: My neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me for taking care of their dogs. I have played with dogs of all sizes, including taking care of puppies! I have owned a multitude of pets my entire life. Ranging from dogs to lizards to guinea pigs. My love for animals and caring for them is genuine. Currently, I have a golden retriever, two fish, and a dwarf hamster. I am currently in college, but am very available during the week. I am available Tuesday and Thursday after 1:30. And I am available from 12-2 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and anytime after 3 on those days. I can find availability during weekends if needed. I can walk dogs, play with them, let them out, and hang out with them whenever needed. Although I am unable to board dogs, I am willing stay with them at a clients home.
About: I was raised around all kinds of animals. I respect the fact that they have their own boundaries and tolerance towards certain things. I love helping animals over come fears and building relationships with them. I own 2 dogs and 4 cats. Animal care is second nature to me. I enjoy all of their personalities and mannerisms. To me, life isn’t complete without a dog or cat by your side. My yard is not fenced in, but I have tie downs both in my front and backyard. I have 2 very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby entertained. If you have a cat, don’t worry we have a safe place set up in our home just for them.

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 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
