“Katrina is great! My 2 pitties can be a bit much at times but she handles them wonderfully and doesn't let them get away with being naughty. She is also flexible and accommodating with changing times when theres been a change to our normal routine/schedule. Highly recommend Katrina's services.”
“Stephanie was absolutely fantastic with our two cats! Our cat Orange was recovering from very recent dental operations and needed medicine twice a day and special food requirements, and Stephanie was able to take care of him with no problems. I really think our cats are going to miss her, in fact! She was also very thorough with her communication/updates and took plenty of photos! I can't recommend Stephanie highly enough. ?”
About: I grew up surrounded by all sorts of animals so taking care of them has become a passion. I'm a college student and work part-time at a dog daycare. Whether your dog's a puppy or a senior, I've got the experience to give them the best care. Your dog will be treated like one of my own! My week is pretty flexible. On the days I work, there's a hour and a half break midday – perfect for checking in on your pup! I focus on keeping your dog safe and comfortable by sticking to their routines. I make sure we have a great time with lots of walks and play sessions, so your dog stays happy and relaxed!
“Dani was great throughout our multi-day vacation. She communicated daily and sent photos of our kitties, making sure that we always knew they were being taken care of. She also was super helpful in closing the windows and setting up the air purifier to clean the smoke from forest fires out of the air. Dani is clearly an animal lover, is very friendly, extremely reliable and we will definitely ask her to cat-sit for us in the future! Very highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I truly love spending time with dogs—playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I have a friendly cocker spaniel named Stevie who loves other dogs, and we offer a cozy, welcoming home for overnight stays where your pup will be treated like part of the family. I currently work full time. I’m up early every morning with my dog before I head into to work - I go home on lunch every day to let her out. I work close to home so if I need to run home, it only takes a minute. I have a fenced in yard. During the day the dog can be free in the house or if you prefer to have them created, we have a large crate.
“We just moved here last month and figured we wouldn't be able to do much anytime soon because of our animals. Had an emergency and needed someone quick...so searched pet sitters in oswego and found Rover... and it is so awesome to feel comfortable having someone watch your animals that you know you can trust after instantly meeting them. Super nice to my crazy pups and sent super cute pictures. Will definitely use again. Thanks Kaylee!”
“Alyssa is very sweet, responsive, and responsible. She was wonderful with our cat, Margot, and I felt so reassured knowing Alyssa was at the house during the week we were away. She was also very tidy and respectful of our home. I will definitely be using Alyssa in the future and cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I currently have two cats and help care for a family dog as needed. I love walking dogs and playing fetch. I have had experience training some tricks but not with other basic skills with dogs. Caring for pets can be easily incorporated into my schedule. I have a consistent schedule and a car that is well maintained so driving to homes wont be a problem. Will provide reliable and loving service to all pets. Clear communication will be provided, as well as pictures and videos of pets can be sent.
“Elise watched my cat, Roger, for nearly a month. She was attentive, punctual, and clearly showed him a ton of love. She sent photos every visit, and when I arrived home, Roger was almost disappointed to see me because he missed Elise. If you are going away, and want to have peace of mind that your pet will be well taken care of and loved, hire Elise. She is one of the best”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs with a range of personalities and needs. From daily walks and playtime to providing comfort and companionship, I strive to make every visit enjoyable and stress-free for your pet. I’m attentive to routine, happy to help with feeding and basic care, and comfortable administering medication when needed. My experience includes caring for my own dogs as they’ve grown older, so I understand how important patience and gentleness can be—whether your pup is young, energetic, or enjoys a slower pace. My goal is always to ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and well-cared-for while you’re away. As a student, my class schedule varies, with some days finishing as early as 11am and others at 4pm. This gives me plenty of flexibility during the day, and I’m always happy to leave campus to provide drop-in visits, walks, or dog sitting as needed. I’m dedicated to working with your routine to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they deserve, and I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability to best fit your needs. I have one very anxious senior pup to say the least! She requires loads of attention and she’ll make sure you know when she isn’t getting enough. She’s outside (leashed) daily and loves to nap outside.
“Nicole was responsive, friendly, and easy to work with. It was our first time leaving the cats longer than a day or two, so we were nervous but Nicole made everything so easy. Thanks again!”
About: I have had pets and been surrounded by animals my whole life. I currently have two boy cats named Loki and Oscar and a chihuahua named Yogi. I have taken care of cats, kittens, special needs pets, and all types of dogs from newborn to senior. I am currently unemployed because I have just moved back home to NY from TX so my availability is wide open for now. I am unavailable for boarding or housesitting because I am staying with family and have two cats of my own whom I need to be with overnight. At my home I provide a water fountain, toys, treats and a separate space if needed. We also have a fenced in yard and a puppy pool! I spend genuine time and patience with each animal I care for to ensure there is a trusting relationship. No one wants to be stressed out especially not your beloved pet and I’ll take the extra mile to provide that comfort.
“John has taken care of my cat twice now, and she feels very comfortable and relaxed with him. He is communicative, attentive, and always adapts to her little quirks and personality. I really appreciate how well he cares for her and would definitely recommend him!”
“Amanda was responsive, caring, and incredibly trustworthy taking care of James and Winifred. She sent pictures and let me know of her arrival and departure. I would highly recommend her- she’s very comfortable with my rowdy dogs and they loved her immediately.”
About: I love all animals big and small! I have a variety of experience. I grew up taking care of a Rottweiler and currently have a pit and two cats. I have worked in the past and consistently cared for a deaf and diabetic dog to include administering insulin. I have volunteered at shelters, fostered numerous dogs to include a deaf dog with seizures, interned at a wildlife rehab center for a year, and worked at the Philadelphia Zoo taking care of the goats yard. I worked for 3 years at VIP pet care holding the animals, administering shots , microchips, blood draws and supervising the clinics. I love hiking and anything outdoors so walking your pup would be great for both your pup and myself! 🙂 I’m currently working full time and another part time job so am currently only offering walking services to work around my busy schedule. My schedule varies each week. I have a fenced in yard with one dog and two cats. At this time I am only offering walking services and may consider in home care 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.

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 .

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.
