“Kristi was absolutely great with our cat while we were away. She dropped in twice a day to feed him and check in on him. Sent us pictures and made sure to let us know how Buckwheat was doing. He liked her instantly! We will definitely reach out to Kristi for future drop in visits.”
“Christianna took excellent care of my kitty. Emily needs medicine twice a day also and it was given to her in a calm patient manner. Emily is my daughter and it means alot to me that she was taken care of ao well. I also received pictures while she was there!! Thank you so much! I'll be booking again soon!”
About: I have had breeds of all shapes and sized my entire life. I care for my 2 year old border collie and I have experience handling cats as well. I want to make your pets feel at home even when you are away. I would want the best from my boy when I am away, so I want to provide that service to others! I am full-time employee so I can stop in before and after work on weekdays, and I am free weekends for endless playing ! (I can stay in the evening during the week until around 8-9) I am very respectful of other people’s spaces and would be happy to meet your animal where they are! I do NOT offer boarding currently.
“This was our 2nd experience with Kristy, and we couldn't be happier. Kristy's communication is the best, and we appreciate every photo she sends. It's wonderful to know that the kitties are so well taken care of while we're away!”
“Great service. Taylor kept in touch with me the entire time. My BigBoy was taken great care of and Thank you for the extras you took care of too. Will definitely use her again.”
“Jordan took excellent care of our two cats while we were away. I will definitely be contacting him in the future. If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I highly recommend Jordan.”
About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! Pet care fits beautifully into my current schedule. I’m seeking flexible work that keeps me close to home so I can care for my four cats and continue pursuing my passion for baking. My days are open and adaptable, and I love spending time with animals. I’m currently available most days and times, and I genuinely enjoy being outside for walks or tending to pets’ unique needs. This work is a natural extension of my lifestyle. I treat all pets like family, tuning into their needs with care and calm energy. Whether in my home or yours, I create a peaceful, loving environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, maintain clean spaces, and follow feeding or medication routines exactly. My four cats are well-loved and cared for, and I bring that same intention and presence to every animal I care for.
“Every visit, I received detailed updates that eased my mind while I was away. It was clear that my cat was not just cared for, but also loved and entertained. The house was left spotless, and my cat was blissfully happy upon my return, which speaks volumes about the quality of care provided. I can't thank Nia enough for her exceptional service. She is, without a doubt, my go-to person for cat sitting now. I highly recommend her to any pet owner who wants peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in the best hands possible. A heartfelt thank you for making our holiday worry-free!”
About: Well with 10+ years of veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for cats with special needs and medications, anxiety, medical conditions, and unique personalities with patience. Veterinary care is a big part of my daily life. I work as a veterinary technician, so caring for animals, monitoring their needs, and keeping them comfortable is already part of my routine. I provide loving, attentive care in my home or yours, following routines and medications, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and special instructions while keeping pets comfortable.
“We’re absolutely thrilled with the incredible job Brina did. Our house was immaculate when we arrived (which is hard to do with two senior kitties who don’t always make it in the litter box). She took such wonderful care of our kitties and our home and we feel so lucky to have found her. Not only was she an expert at medicating two senior cats but she also alerted us of an alarm going off in our basement and stayed overtime to figure out what it was and turn it off. We will definitely be booking Brina again, we have never had such a good cat sitter!! Truly a gem!”
“We were very satisfied with our first boarding experience. Smokey acclimated the sitter much faster than anticipated. He enjoyed his stay and bonded with the sitter in less than one week. We will definitely use her services again when we travel. This was a long trip (17 days) during the 2025 holiday season.”
About: Haven't had a pet in almost 10 years so I might be a little rusty but I have over 15 years experience with a medium/big dog (chow chow) and as well as a little dog (pekingese), Feral cat (bombay) trained to love and be loved and to be happy & friendly. As an trustworthy and friendly sitter and animal lover especially dogs, cats next. I have plenty room to still learn more and experience more, the patience I have with fur babies is because they're pretty much like our children. Smoke free, cage free unless trained and requires to be in a crate, walks every 4 -6 hours during the day until the early night and sometimes late night, unless pet has special requirements to take more walks it can be provided. And plenty of space and play time. Backyard is unfenced plenty of run around in the back area of the location area, plenty of nearby parks, basement is currently semi unfinished with no furniture with plenty of roam around room, with potential for setup area to cool off, eat, lay and relax, as well as play with access to the back area. If fur baby has separation, anxiety issue will try to help dog with that please notify if dog needs extra attention. ALSO KNOW AN EXCELLENT DOG TRAINER WHICH IS SEPARATE FROM THIS CAN SEND YOU THE INFORMATION TO MAKE YOUR FUR BABY THE PERFECT GUEST IN SOMEONE'S HOME AND YOURS! (ISPEAKDOG) I'm currently working full/ part time with a flexible schedule on the road, and kina awkward sleep schedule where im up most of the time and random times but i able to keep up with a set schedule. so I do have flexibility with dog walks, play time, feed time, and down time will preferable be of course at night where I maybe either sleep or out working for a few hours but not interrupting fur baby resting hours unless special attention is needed also do have a back up person on site incase of emergencies. I currently have no pets again as of yet other than fish ... but provide a clean, spacious unfinished basement with windows is where animal will typically lounge at, unless it's one or two small little dogs that have anxiety mishaps. dogs may have the option to roam the house, but not beds they will have their own blanket or doggy bed to relax on. also available is a backyard entrance to let dogs out to use the rest room unfenced backyard so if you have a dog that is a runner or a trackstar a proper leash or harness with extensions is needed to let the fur baby roam and run without getting lost so fur babies will be able to play in the large back field area. PLEASE NOTE If you know your fur babies do not get along with others please let me know so i can try to keep them separate or get them use to the pack even with a watchful eye they are like kids they are likely to get in a fight and im not responsible for them incidents I promote safety, peace, playfulness and award good behavior, A space for eat, lay,and play, and time and energy for walks, and exercise and care!
“Virginia took excellent care of Louis while we were out of town for 10 days. We were so happy to come back to a healthy happy cat and clean house - he had no accidents! Virginia went above and beyond to care for him and make sure everything was in order. Would definitely rebook!”

Amy was awesome!!! I have a senior cat that is very sick and I felt very bad for leaving her but Amy took great care of her. She was very sympathetic to her condition and I feel she went above and beyond. She sent daily updates and photographs. I highly recommend her.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
