“Very happy with Jessica. She listened to all of our requests and took great care of our 2 little kitties. Showed flexibility when we had to modify our booking. Cats were happy, fed and acting relaxed when we got got from our trip. She always took her time to fill out kitty report card and snapped some great pics! Would recommend 10/10”
“This is our third time having Jessica over. She is very conscientious, responsive, prompt and responsible. She works hard to befriend our kitties even though they are not cooperative, and we appreciate that a lot! We feel very safe giving her access to our pets and our home! She is a blessing and we’re very thankful!”
“Renee was wonderful with my kitties! They were kept fed and litter boxes kept clean. Merlyn, who rarely comes out for strangers, was present and happy to see Renee. Renee even went above and beyond and checked our mail and brought in packages. I would happily have Renee come to watch over my kitties again. Thank you again for being soo amazing!”
“Lauren provided excellent care for our 3 cats, as well as our fish, bunnies, and chickens! She communicated well, was on time, and sent lots of pictures to put our minds at ease while we were away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for animal care and look forward to working with her again!”
“Diane was great with my cats. One of them is very shy, but she came out of hiding with Diane. They were well fed and taken care of. I loved the pictures she sent every day! I would book her again if I need anyone to care for my cats.”
About: I have had cats ever since I was little and have also worked in a cat rehoming and adoption center! I also love dogs and am comfortable walking them and tending to their needs. I’m a teacher on summer break so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets and give them all the attention and care they need! I am not able to board dogs where I currently live (due to my lease) but I can travel to you and give all the services needed! I am comfortable traveling to homes as well as boarding kitties.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 15 years old. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior dogs, playful cats, or pets who just need a little extra attention, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the day. I do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine so they stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care your pet needs. I’ll treat your home with respect, clean up after myself, lock doors securely, and send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Katie was very attentive, helpful, and took the absolute best care of our cats. She was very accommodating and asked any questions or concerns she may have which we really appreciated. We felt confident that our babies were well taken care of while we were gone. Would definitely recommend booking her.”
“We hired Alexandra for drop-ins for our cat and she was great! At our first meeting she immediately was sitting on the floor giving our cat the affection he was requesting, and he was so happy. While we were gone she gave him all the cuddles he needed (we could tell by his behavior when we returned) and she followed the instructions we left. She always responded to messages quickly and communicated clearly. Definitely recommend.”
About: I have taken care of neighbors, friends, and family’s pets! I have worked in a boarding facility for 1 year and absolutely love all furry friends! I’m currently working part time, so I have extensive availability to play with your pups! I do have trips but I am generally always in the area! I love to run around and play with any furry friends and am willing to do any tasks you need to make sure they are happy!
About: My name is Emily and I would like to help you with your pet in anyway I can. Services including taking them on a walk or jog, house sitting, coming in for a hour or two to make sure they are fed and doing well or whatever else you may need assistance with. I have personally had pets around me my whole life. Since a young age I have always been interested in animals and making them my new friend. My most happiest moments were playing and cuddling with dogs and cats. I know how to walk, bathe, feed, and play with animals but to be honest I do not really have any special skills but I do hope I can care and make your pet as happy as they make me feel.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Opal
On a platform that often focused on dog-focused care, it’s rare to come across a pet sitter who will take the time to get to know and care for your cats. I trust my cats are in good hands when Jessica visits them, and receive excellent photos and descriptions of their time together. I’m very grateful for her attentive care and highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!
Bristol was fantastic for drop in visits for both cats and dogs! She was a great help in finding a last minute pet sitter. She is very quick and responsive to messages and included detailed updates about our fur babies, and truly seemed to care about them. Would definitely recommend Bristol for all other pet needs, and will definitely be reaching out again if we need help in the future!!

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.

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 .

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.
