About: I’ve had many experiences with pet sitting dogs and cats. Family, neighbors and friends trust me to take care of their pets. I usually do pet sitting every summer. I am currently unemployed and there's no better way to spend time than take care of animals. I am available any time you need me. What ever you need me to do for your pet | can do, no problem. My schedule is very flexible and I can be there for them.
“Aleyah is always willing to help out even if she is not feeling her best. We had an emergency today and she came to the rescue for us. So I wish her nothing but the best always.”
“Amber was great. She gave me a time that would work for her because she couldn’t do my time and turns out that worked too. I’m a dummy and thought I updated my address so it sent her to the wrong house and she still went to my right address to leave the pups out. Luna and Kallie look like they had a great time and can definitely trust her with my girls!”
“She took excellent care of our chickens while we were away. She was always prompt and on time, and it was clear that she was experienced with chicken care. Our chickens can be easily startled, but she handled them well and everything went smoothly. She did a great job cleaning the coop and kept us updated throughout our trip. She was also quick to respond to any questions we had and communicated very well. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable chicken care, and I will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I had Chows as a kid growing up and I've had my current Chow for 8 years. I love dogs and animals in general and understand the importance of having someone reliable to call on to be able to take care of them. I'll show your furbabies the love they deserve and make sure they're looked after while you're away. I'm available to take care of your pet as needed. I'd love to arrange a meet & greet to get to know your pet in their environment and discuss expectations. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of while you're away. Let me know their feeding and activity schedule and your instructions for keeping their area clean and tidy.
“Morgan was great with our Russell! Doing everything asked of her and even giving hugs and extra cuddles. I will definitely use Rover for Morgan’s assistance again and recommend to friends.”
“Sam was kind enough to come over and meet Miles before we decided to book them. They got along really well and it was reassuring to know that he was in good hands while we were away!”
“Linda was great! Super responsive, wonderful with the dogs, and sent great pictures so we could see them throughout the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Shyann and I’ve had pets as long as I could remember. Currently a cat owner! I will make sure your pet will feel comfortable, safe and cared for! I was a dog walker at a local shelter and have had multiple dogs of different breeds as well as taken care of family’s Great Dane/Irish wolf hounds! No dog is too big or small! Only accepting Spayed/ neutered pets! All pet ages welcome :) My schedule is pretty flexible as I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to care for your Furry family! <3 For dogs I love giving them plenty of walks and playing them a much as they desire, feeding them yummy treats and feeding them as needed! For cats I will scoop litter, they can get a bunch of play time with me, yummy treats and feed them!
“Took great care of the cats, including one very high maintenance 18+ kitty who frequently has litter box issues and has daily meds. Jessie C. kept the box (and the cat’s accidents) cleaned up and cats well looked after.”
About: Since I was a kid I’ve had dogs, birds, reptiles, and more! I’m experienced with all kinds of animals, from puppies to senior pets. I would love to care for your best friend this summer! Open to house sitting, drop ins, and whatever is convenient to you. Outside of pet sitting, I’m a senior at Stevenson University and an EMT in Baltimore county. I will be out of town from May 31-June 4, and July 10-18. I am also returning to college in late August. My schedule is otherwise very flexible! My schedule is very flexible while I am home from college for this summer. I will be out of town from May 31-June 3 and July 10-18. I leave back to college in late August. I have a friendly senior dog at home that gets along with other pets and children. I am also open to home visits, drop ins, and whatever is convenient to you! I can keep your best friend company for as long as needed and cater to any special needs such as mobility, medication, and temperament.
“Trisha was great and I would absolutely recommend!!! She took care of our 3 indoor cats and 1 outdoor cat while we were out of town for almost a week. 2 of them are seniors, 1 of which has kidney disease, so I worry about leaving them. I received pictures of the cats twice a day and the litter boxes were so clean when we got home. I feel relieved knowing we have someone like Trisha to care for our kitties when we have to go away!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better Rover for my girl Mindil. I have peace of mind every day that Mindil gets the love and care I would give her, while I’m away at work. Christina is super responsive and helpful and leaves the best cards for me to view after each visit. We got very lucky to have found her.”
“Amanda was a wonderful kitty sitter. She was very attentive to all kitties, providing extra attention to a senior kitty. Followed feeding and cleaning instructions carefully. Very trustworthy and reliable.”

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.

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 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.
