“Stephanie is amazing. I left for a 2 week trip and knee my girls were in good hands--the daily photos proved it. Stephanie discovered my cats like staring out the front door, so now I can leave the door open foe their entertainment. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I have been a part of the professional pet care world for over a decade as a dog groomer. As I started that profession I also began pet sitting. I would dog sit for families that had up to 6 dogs. I am experienced with dogs in all stages of life and have experience administering medications to dogs, such an insulin shots. I have recently dropped to working part time as I move on to a new business venture and have ample time to spend with your fur baby. I am not able to care for pets in my own home due to my own pets, but I am happy to travel to your home and care for your pet in their own environment. That is that only way in which I have pet sat in the past.
“Maria was great with my kitties. She was able to give them their oral meds with no problem. Great communication and attentive to the cat needs. It was nice to come back to a clean house and calm cats. Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer was great with my cat Dio and he loved her even as a shy boy! I really appreciate her being consistent with her drop in times so Dio remained on schedule. :) We'll be looking her up again next time I go out of town.”
“Second time my wife and I have used Jennifer to sit our cats while out-of-town. It was only a couple days, but a hospital stay went longer than planned so we had to add on another night and morning; she handled the booking for us and came back over to feed them and do the litter - her help make a stressful trip a bit easier. Pretty sure we'll be using her a third time down the road whenever ...”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have 13 years of hands-on experience. I raised my first dog from birth and cared for him through all 10 years of his life. I now have a 6-month-old puppy and two cats of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have always relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with all ages and breeds, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I travel for work, which actually gives me a lot of flexibility! I’m able to adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs, whether that’s drop-ins or walks! I’m typically available weekdays and weekends as needed! I I care for my own 6-month-old puppy, so I know how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and feeling loved- I treat every pet like they’re my own and pay close attention to their needs, routines, and comfort.
“Nasa is an excellent pet sitter. She took care of Loki and Athena while my partner and I visited family out of state. Nasa fed, cleaned, and played with the kitties and would update us with pictures and videos and they looked so happy ?♥️ Thankful for all your excellent care. We will definitely be booking again ?”
“Pam is good person. She clearly stated her top priority was doing right by our cats. She spent three nights at our home and left it as tidy as she found it. She is fantastic and she will be our number one cat and home sitter at Rover”
“Erika and Nikita were wonderful. They were professional, kind, and respectful of our home. We appreciated the heartfelt messages with every visit. When we returned home, Rosie seemed more at-ease than she usually does when we come back from a trip. It was clear to us that she wasn’t only cared for, she was loved! We look forward to booking Erika and Nikita again. Thank you!!”
“Asia took care of my cat Amora for a few days. I booked a little last minute, but communication was smooth the whole time. She sent me regular updates and was super understanding when I ran a bit late. My cat was in good hands, she’s a great sitter!”
About: I've grown up around animals (cats, dogs, & snakes) and actively cared for them for as long as I can remember! I currently own 2 cats and foster three more, one of whom has special needs. My partner and I also have a room full of fish tanks, both fresh and saltwater, so finned friends are no problem. I have owned reptiles previously, so I am open to a wide variety of pets (or plants) in all shapes and sizes. My availability is very open, since pet-sitting is my primary job. Weekends or weekdays work equally well for me. I will structure my schedule around whatever pet I am house-sitting for, to give you the peace of mind that they're healthy and happy while you aren't home. Each animal is unique— I love spending quality time with them so I can get to know their individual personalities and quirks. I enjoy putting in the extra effort to earn their trust. I am experienced with elderly pets, and can give medications if necessary. I can help maintain long-haired pets' coats. I have seen all sorts of pet-related messes, and I have no problem cleaning them up. I will gladly learn the needs of each pet, and adapt to make them as comfortable as possible while you're away!
“Constance was wonderful! We booked her for drop-in visits to administer medication for our cat, who is on a very strict regimen. She was open to learning our process and was very attentive to our cat’s needs. She went above and beyond the administration, topping off food and water bowls, cleaning him up a bit and giving him snuggles. Getting the updates and pictures from her while we were away really gave me a lot of comfort, as I knew he was in good hands. She even left a sweet note and picture of our boy for us when we returned from a very long flight, which I appreciated so much. It was just such a nice and personal touch. Would definitely book her again in the future! Thank you, Constance!”
“Michele did a wonderful job caring for Takoda! Was very quick to respond, and was able to help us on VERY short notice as our original sitter cancelled. Very kind and attentive to the pups needs, we forgot to put a water bowl in the room our dog was staying in, she asked if that was something he needed. Sent photo updates with each visit which helped us see Takoda was happy and comfortable hanging on the couch with her. He has some anxiety when it comes to other dogs, Michele did a great job of following our special instructions for him to make sure he stayed safe. Was kind enough to collect our mail for us as well, as I had a package delivered while we were gone. Very happy with her services, will definitely book again!”
“We were so lucky to meet Imani! She is absolutely the best. Our cat loved her from the first minute he met her. She is most responsible, knowledgeable, professional, kind, and sweet person. I was very nervous about how our cat would handle his first time away from us and she put my mind at ease and made us very comfortable. We are most grateful.”

Tabatha was excellent with my 3 cats while I was away on vacation. My cats seem very happy and everything was well cared for when we returned. She did meds for my 2 sphynx cats and was very responsive and kept me up to date! Will definitely book with her again!
Maria was wonderful as always taking care of our kitty Sammi while we were away for a week trip! It's obvious that she loves spending time with him and sends really cute pics of cuddle and play sessions. Maria even went the extra mile to take our trash out for us which was really sweet and unexpected. We would trust her with our pets any time and can't recommend her enough! Thank you, Maria ♥️
Stephanie is amazing. I left for a 2 week trip and knee my girls were in good hands--the daily photos proved it. Stephanie discovered my cats like staring out the front door, so now I can leave the door open foe their entertainment. Will definitely use her again.
This is the second time that Kelly has taken care of my cats. She is very professional, kind, and compassionate with my little trouble makers! The cats remembered her from the first visit and they enjoyed her company. While I think Kelly is great, what really matters is what our furry four legged kids think.
Laura is our go-to cat sitter whenever we travel, and we trust her completely. During our longest trip yet, she saved the day when the upstairs AC broke by quickly moving his food, water, and litter to a cooler floor. She showered our cat with love and attention, and we couldn't recommend her more!
Michelle was absolutely amazing for my cat while we were out of town on vacation! She is attentive, kind, and clearly cares a lot about animals. The peace of mind I get just from knowing my boy was well taken care of while I can’t be with him is priceless to me. 10/10 would recommend!

Erica took great care of both of my boys over the holidays!! She was attentive and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for and felt loved!! My boys are already waiting for our next vacation so they can play with her again!! We will definitely be rebooking!!

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 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.
