“Hannah was wonderful with my cats and gave me real peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure they felt safe and comfortable.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up caring for 5 dogs, a cat, a tortoise, and plenty of other pets over the years, so being around animals feels very natural to me. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve helped take care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors by walking them around the neighborhood, playing with them, and giving them lots of attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a very flexible schedule, and am happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing with them, or just giving them company and attention while you’re away. I always try to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in any environment. At our house during college, we’ve had 3 cats, so I’m very used to caring for animals daily and understanding different personalities and routines. I’ve also helped take care of foster dogs from the animal shelter, which taught me patience and how to work with pets that may be nervous or need extra attention. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and proper care.
About: I've been a dog owner for many years and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I currently have two Miniature Dachshunds, so I'm experienced with dogs of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I have hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications when needed, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. I know that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the personalized care and attention they deserve. My goal is to treat every pet like they're part of my own family and give you peace of mind while you're away. I am a graduate student at Ole Miss. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I'm available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as walks and overnight care when needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, so I make it a priority to give each pet plenty of attention, exercise, and care while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every visit. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe environment. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: I grew up around dogs and have always loved animals. When I came to college, I adopted a cat and later rescued another kitten I found in a car, so now I have two kitties of my own! I’m very comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and understand how important pets are to their families. I’m currently very flexible and have plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and patience.
About: I love all kinds of animals, although I definitely have a sweet spot for dogs. As soon as I was old enough and able to, I rescued my own. I couldn’t get enough of just one, so I fostered another until a home was found for her. I have trained him myself and love taking walks with him. I am very responsible, kind, and will accommodate to whatever you need! I am a full-time student right now, but I have plenty of spare time for tending to your fur babies! I would love to add your pet to my schedule! I care for pets everyday as I have my own! I will treat yours like it is my own. I am more than happy to do whatever it is I need to do to help you out!

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.
