About: "Looking for a sitter who truly speaks animal? I have spent my entire life caring for an incredible variety of pets, giving me the unique skills needed to handle almost any animal family. My experience includes giant dog breeds (English Mastiffs and Great Pyrenees), livestock (horses, chickens, and goat herds), and exotic reptiles. Today, I am a proud parent to a cat and two Holland Lop rabbits! Because I have lived alongside animals my whole life, I excel at reading their body language, vocal cues, and unique personalities. I am ready to provide a premium, loving, and safe environment for your babies!" I'm newly a father and am currently on paid family leave, and am available most days. My daily routine includes waking around 3am and getting the day started. I have several 2 hour blocks of time throughout my day that are not currently filled with any activities, perfect for caring for your pets! In My Home (Cat & Rabbit Friendly): Separate Zones: I maintain dedicated, safe zones for my resident cat and two Holland Lop rabbits to prevent stress. Exotic-Safe Space: My home environment is calm, secure, and adapted to handle specialized pet needs without disruption. Escorted Outdoor Time: Any outdoor access is strictly supervised within secure boundaries. In your home: Home Security: I strictly follow your home entry, locking, and alarm instructions to ensure property safety. Zero-Trace Care: I leave your home exactly as I found it, or better, cleaning up all pet waste immediately. Consistency: I mimic your exact feeding, walking, and crating schedules to minimize your pet's separation anxiety. Communication Expert: My lifetime of experience with giant breeds, livestock, and exotics means I actively read body language to prevent stress or conflict, and can quickly soothe an agitated pet. Daily Updates: I send frequent text and photo updates so you know your pets are safe, happy, and thriving. Emergency Ready: I keep your preferred vet information on hand and maintain a clear action plan for urgent situations, prioritizing your pets health above all else!
About: I’m patient, reliable, and love spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m especially good with shy pets and keeping pets on their normal routine. I’m currently working part time and I’m also a part time student, I’m available weekend mornings from 9am to 12pm, I’m also available Thursday’s after 2pm. I have experience caring for both small and large dogs because I own a big dog myself. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets safe and on their normal routine. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Amazing job. My dogs never even noticed we were gone. They were well taken care of, and I would definitely recommend Elizabeth to anyone in need of pet sitting services.”
About: I’ve loved animals since a child. I have 2 decades of experience taking care of dogs. I love to give them affection and care for them. I’m currently working from home so I have lots of flexibility to care for pets. I am home nearly 90% of the time. Pets are friends! I have a large backyard where I have a temporary fence and enclosed play area for your pets. It is safe and the home is secure. My husband and I work together as we both enjoy working with animals.
“Normally after a long day away I'd come home to hyper dogs and at least one destroyed pillow. Well, they must have had a great time with Holli because all was calm at our house. The photos she sent of the pups were adorable and a great way to let us know she'd gotten in with no issues. Will absolutely be calling her again to play with the pups!”
“Olivia is awesome with our pets! This is the second time we've hired her for drop in visits with our anxious rescues. She very patient, understanding and trustworthy. We highly recommend her for your petcare needs. 👍🏻”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 16. I love walking dogs. I can stop in when you and your family are busy to take care of pup! I’m currently working part time. I am available most days! I can work around your families schedule to provide the best care for your fur babies! I love dogs and will always keep them safe when I am taking care of them. I will provide my best care for your fur babies!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my personal experience with animals and the genuine care I bring to every pet I look after. I’ve spent 20 years raising and caring for pets of my own—including energetic puppies, strong-willed adult dogs, and sweet senior pets who needed a little extra help. Because of that, I understand that each animal has its own personality, routines, and needs, and I adapt my care to match. I’ve helped house-train puppies, supported older dogs with mobility issues, administered medications, and comforted anxious pets with patience and affection. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior or health, and I communicate openly with pet owners so they always feel informed and reassured. More than anything, I know how important it is to feel that your pet is in safe, loving hands. I treat every animal like my own—with kindness, attention, and respect. Whether it’s a walk, a play session, or just some quiet companionship, I’m here to help pets feel happy and at home while you’re away. I am currently on summer break from graduate school at UT so I have plenty of time to attentively care for your dog and cat. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to your routine to keep your dog or cat comfortable and stress-free. I handle feedings, walks, playtime, medications, and litter box or yard clean-up with care and attention. Whether it’s energetic play or quiet companionship, I adapt to your pet’s needs while keeping your home clean and secure.
“April is very easy to get along with and gave excellent care to our cat Miss Pepper. April sent me pictures of our feline at each visit and informed me of package deliveries. Upon my request she checked the water taps drip to ensure the water doesn’t freeze. I highly recommend her.”
“Bethany took excellent care of my dogs! She was able to effortlessly take care of each dogs’ particular needs and was very accommodating of all their special instructions. She was also very communicative and punctual. I would absolutely recommend Bethany and plan to use her again in the future!”
“We absolutely LOVE Kaylee! Our girls love her and they definitely love giving her cuddles! Very well taken care of, daily updates and pictures and she even left a little photo treat on our counter. Thank you!!!”
“Misty was wonderful with my cat, Apollo, over Thanksgiving! I was out of state and completely at ease knowing she was taking such great care of him. She sent daily updates and photos, which made being away so much easier. I had just bought an automatic feeder that started malfunctioning right after I left, and Misty handled it perfectly, making sure Apollo was fed and cared for. It really reinforced how important it is to have someone reliable checking in, even if you have automatic feeders and a water fountain. I’m so grateful for her help and will definitely book with her again! 🐾”
“Elisa was fantastic! I am so glad we found her! She came out prior to our vacation, to meet our cat and go over everything. She was more than willing to help with other things such as watering the garden and offered to bring the mail inside too (although we had "paused" our mail, since we were not sure of the ending date). Elisa spent time with our cat, playing, petting and taking/sending pictures and video. She made sure to note the pertinent information about feeding and litter clean-up. She was very flexible with the timing of our get -away, and adjusted accordingly. I cannot say enough about how happy we were with Elisa. My cat truly seems to miss her :)”
“Mikaela was the perfect cat sitter for my baby. She loves up on my lonely kitty and also kept her food and water topped off and the litter clean and swept up when necessary. Communication was great and she adjusted her schedule a bit to accommodate my kittys needs on the last day. Definitely will book again!!”

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
