“Sara is God-send. She genuinely love cats/pets and was indeed a temporary cat mom to my cat, Rusty! She was wonderful and follows all the instructions given for feeding Rusty and even went above and beyond to do other things. I believe Rusty already misses her as around the time we got home, which was around the time Sara checks in in the morning, Rusty was already waiting by the door. I was able to have my vacation free of worries and with peace of mind. Thank you, Sara.”
“Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“We asked Berrangere to watch our pup at the last minute. She took Winnie in long walks and spent a lot of time with her at home. She was really thorough and positive in her messaging and quick to respond. Highly recommend!”

“Tamika is a fantastic cat sitter! She does a great job with our cat and I always feel comfortable when I know Tamika is watching her. She also helped us out this time by doing extra things such as picking up packages that were delivered. She’s always communicative and we appreciate all she does to respect our home and take great care of our cat.”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including overnight stays, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding routines, playtime, litter box care, and administering medications. I’ve cared for pets with a variety of personalities and needs — from energetic dogs who need extra exercise to shy cats who need patience and time to feel comfortable. For many years, I provided in-home pet sitting, including staying overnight in clients’ homes and maintaining pets’ normal routines while their owners were away. I currently have two long-term clients whose homes I continue to stay in regularly, but now that I have my own pet at home, I am focusing on drop-in visits and walks for new clients. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while keeping their routines as consistent as possible. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule as a personal trainer. I often have breaks throughout the day that allow me to provide midday walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets while their owners are away. I’m already used to building my schedule around the needs of others, whether that’s my clients or their pets, and I love having animals as part of my day. Outside of work, I’m an active person who enjoys running and spending time outdoors, so I especially enjoy helping dogs get exercise and enrichment. For cats, I love taking the time to provide calm companionship, playtime, and care that keeps them comfortable in their own home. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely for feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special preferences your pet may have. For drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets quality attention — including walks, bathroom breaks, meals, fresh water, playtime, cleanup, and lots of affection. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and cared for while you’re away. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so my goal is to make your home feel like a safe, stress-free place while you’re gone.
“This was my first time using Rover. And boy am I glad that I did. I found the perfect sitter.Nuzhat was highly professional sent me pictures throughout my cats nine days stay and when my trip got delayed was very helpful with letting My Sister pick my babies up. I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future thank you so much, Rover.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I offer help with daily walks, feeding, playtime, litter box and potty care, crate routines, and giving basic medications when needed. I also work on reinforcing training cues so pets can stay consistent with whatever structure they already have at home. I’m very attentive and patient, and I pay close attention to animal body language so I can understand how each pet is feeling and what they need. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m especially comfortable with shy, anxious, or routine focused pets who do best with calm energy and a steady, reassuring presence. I am available for pet care throughout the day depending on scheduling needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can be flexible and adjust my time to make sure pets are getting regular attention, exercise, and companionship. No matter the situation, I make sure pet care is something I can fully show up for and prioritize. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m flexible and able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as consistent weekly schedules or occasional last-minute needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a clean, calm environment. In clients’ homes, I respect routines and spaces while ensuring pets are supervised, comfortable, and stress-free. I stay alert on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and communicate promptly if anything seems off.
About: I have had pets my whole life, grown up taking care of many dogs and two family cats. Im currently the primary caretaker of our family dog, our now older family cat, and my two own cats. I also have experience with exotic animals, previously having two family guinea pigs and now my own hermit crab. Every morning I wake up to feed my cats and dog right before I eat my own breakfast. My cats litters are in spaces I use daily so they trust the space and i can monitor their health and habits. I know every animal is unique the same way people are, I treat every animal with love, care, and patience. I have a big soft spot for animals that are naturally distrustful and skittish and know how to gently approach them.
About: What sets me apart is my calm, dependable approach and strong attention to detail. I’m patient and consistent with dogs of all ages and energy levels, including seniors and dogs who need extra reassurance or routine. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering oral medications, and maintaining feeding, walking, and play schedules. I prioritize safety in and outside the home and always provide clear updates and photos so pet parents feel confident their dog is well cared for I work fully remote, which gives me a lot of flexibility to fit pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits and adjust as needed to meet each pet’s schedule. Because of this flexibility, I can provide consistent, attentive care without rushing and can be responsive if plans or needs change. I provide care primarily in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks or playtime, litter or waste cleanup, and any medications. I take a calm, patient approach and adjust my care based on each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine. I also prioritize safety in the home, respect the space as if it were my own, and provide regular updates and photos so pet parents feel informed and at ease.
“Audrey made our first experience with Rover so great. We got into a last minute pinch for our vacation she responded quickly was very flexible to meet up. She let Adam out each morning for us and provided in detail how his morning was. I’m so grateful for her answering all my first time questions and taking such great care of Sam for the week for me. We would love to use her again in the future.”


“Victoria is a very attentive sitter with great communication! My cat had a great time with her and I received many photos of her throughout her visits. Would 100% book again!”


About: I’m a St. Joe’s student and a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets. I have a 5-year-old goldendoodle of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve also watched plenty of dogs and cats for friends and family, and I’m comfortable with all types of pets and personalities. I love going on walks, spending quality time with animals, and making sure they get the attention they need. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive, reliable, and I always keep owners updated with lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and safe.

About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life growing up, I've had a few years of experience with cats both at home and taking care of roommates' pets. I've participated in dog training classes growing up, so I have good knowledge from that. I'm currently working part-time, so I generally have 3 to 4 days a week open, and live right on the trolley line in West Philadelphia, so I have decent range. I like to make sure I know what all the animal is eating, and try to stray from that as little as possible. As far as boarding goes, I have a small studio apartment, so I have very limited options there.
“Hannah is amazing!!! We left for an abroad trip and she checked on our cat several times and I could tell he was so well care for. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life. A black lab was my first nanny, and I have baby photos of me sharing my food from my high chair. Friends and family have always relied on me to pet sit their pups when away, and I have both had senior dogs and taken care of friend’s seniors. I’d love to help take care of your fur babies! I work at a school during the day, but during the summer I am available before 8am and after 2:30pm M-Th, with open availability Fri-Sun. I will discuss needs and safety with clients in advance.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Penfield
Angelica is so terrific! We especially appreciate how she takes initiative to do things that we haven’t asked her to do, but that makes sense to do, like taking in the compost pails as we intended to ask her but forgot. When it comes to the pets, if she thinks of something we haven’t asked her to do, she runs it by us first! We feel very lucky to have her taken care of our pets.

Our usual pet sitter fell through at the last minute before a trip so I needed to book someone on late notice. Evelyn was incredibly responsive and accommodating and even made time to do a quick meet and greet before we left for the trip. She was extremely kind and sent us some incredibly cute pics for cat updates! She was excellent and would absolutely work with her again. Thank you Evelyn for taking such great care of our cats!

Heather was absolutely amazing! We felt completely at ease traveling knowing our cat was in such great hands. The visit update/report was detailed, thoughtful, and reassuring. On top of that, Heather even helped brining in our mails and packages. We could not have asked for better and will definitely rebook in the future!

Olga did an amazing job with our kitties while we were on vacation! We came back to the litter boxes spotless and two happy and healthy furry friends. There was even a minor logistical issue that came up during her time here that Olga quickly found a solution for on her own and dealt with so we didn't have to worry a bit. I will definitely book Olga next time we're out of town!

Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!

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 .
