“Griselda always takes great care of our two cats including one of whom needs daily meds. It is such a relief to be able to travel knowing our furbabies are so well cared for.”
“Alison is great! Communicates and is reliable. She saved us when a day trip turned out to be longer than expected, and took extra care of our boy when he was scared because of thunder. Thanks Alison!”
“I’ve had a couple of bad experiences using Rover in the past with boarding in someone else’s home so I decided to give drop in visits a try. Robert was very good at communicating with us and made sure our dog was well cared for during the few days we were gone. He was very trustworthy and I would seek him out in the future.”
“We had a great experience with Lauren. She came by to let out my dogs Presley and Kovu and took such good care of them. She was reliable and communicative. The dogs seemed happy and comfortable with her. We really appreciated the updates and care she gave them and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We have used Kelli a lot to take care of our dogs and she is amazing. She is always quick to respond or reach out if she notices something that is out of the ordinary. She is our first choice to watch our fur babies.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely love. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies that require constant attention to senior dogs with unique needs. I’ve also helped train puppies, including teaching basic commands, reinforcing good behavior, and building positive routines. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I take the time to earn their trust while making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. My goal is to build a strong connection with every pet I care for and provide the same patience, affection, and attention I would give my own. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or older and needs extra care, you can count on me to treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part time as a babysitter, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available on weekdays from 6:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable care, whether it’s morning walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping pets company while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to give each pet the attention, love, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I care for every pet as if they were my own by making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. With my own dog, I take him on regular walks, continue his training, keep him clean, trim his nails when needed, and even keep him light grooming. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I typically house sit so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure they stay on their normal routine by taking them outside for potty breaks, going on walks, playing with them, feeding them on schedule, and giving them lots of love and companionship. I believe building trust with both pets and their owners is essential, and I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and stress free experience every time.
“Danielle has looked after my cats on several occasions and always does a fabulous job. This time she did a drop in visit with my pup and it went well. So happy to have Danielle take care of our littles it gives such a peace of mind.”
“Melayna is amazing! She is very patient with my super hyper dog. She has this great calming effect and my pup took to her immediately! She played with him and worked with him (he likes to jump) and even sent me pictures while I was gone. You will not go wrong booking with her. We will definitely be requesting Melayna again. Thank you so much 😊”
“Vanessa always does an amazing job. My pets are happy and well cared for. She goes above and beyond. Very responsible and I know my pets are in good hands. I rebook with her every time.”
About: I have been caring for animals since childhood and have always had dogs as part of my family. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing when pets need extra attention. I currently have four cats, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether it’s keeping them active, sticking to their routine, or giving them plenty of affection, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My availability is typically any time on weekends. I do my best to be flexible and can often accommodate requests with advance notice. If you have a specific schedule or timing in mind, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to work with you whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I’ll take the time to follow your instructions carefully so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, fresh water, and a calm environment while they’re in my care. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Rachael provided for our two felines. They are usually very hesitant around new people and prefer to hide, but Rachael’s patience and dedication quickly won them over. After only a few visits, they were literally eating from her hand. Rachael was thorough and consistent in her care, sending prompt daily recaps that included a checklist of each visit—food, litter, playtime, etc.—and thoughtful photos. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and her updates gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It’s evident that Rachael treats pet sitting as a profession, not a side job. We felt completely confident leaving our pets in her care and will absolutely be using her again for future trips.”
“Simple: Danika is awesome. You will not regret booking her. She cares for our pets as if they were her own. Our pets actually are exited to see her and even our nervous nelly Jyn warmed up fast.”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and understood, and I take the time to learn their individual preferences, sensitivities, and quirks. Whether your pet needs structured play, slow-paced walks, medication given on schedule, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to fit visits, drop-ins, and walks around my classes, and I always make sure I have dedicated time to give each pet the attention they need. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep feeding areas clean, tidy up any messes, and make sure the space is safe before I leave. I’m detail-oriented and safety-focused, and I never rush through visits—I want every pet to feel cared for, not just “checked on.”

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.
