“Abigail is an amazing kitty sitter! She really went above and beyond to make my shy cat comfortable. I came back to a clean house and happy cats. Will definitely hire again!”
“Carly is awesome! I knew Cami was in good hands with Carly! She is flexible and reliable! I am thrilled to have found such a professional care giver ! I feel very comfortable leaving Cami in such good hands!”
“We feel so fortunate that Bethany cared for our cat and our plants! She immediately earned our trust and kept in touch with just the right amount of communication, making us feel reassured and connected while we were away. We came home to a happy cat and plants that looked even better than when we left. We hope to have Bethany visit again in the future!”
“Ami and James are amazing. They took wonderful care of our elderly cat who requires extra care. They went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable and well taken care of while we were away.”
About: I have taken care of a lot of dogs over the years but now I'm looking for a new adventure with Rover. I promise the best for your dog I currently have a job but having another dog around the house or a dog to go and walk would not be an inconvenience at all We have a Yorkie at home and she pretty much does whatever she wants. Your dog would be treated exactly the same. She gets along with other dogs very well and knows how to handle herself around larger dogs
“Jasmin was very thorough in her drop ins. My cats are shy but she was able to interact with them after a few visits. She would still take photos even if it was just of them hiding lol. I will be using her services for any future trips if possible. Thank you!”
About: I have been a pet owner, foster mom, rescue volunteer, and assistance dog trainer for more than two decades. I am a teacher, mom of four grown children, with too much time on my hands and I need some furry friends! I also love to exercise and to walk every day. I am a quiet, introverted person, an avid walker and reader, holder of two masters degrees, and a person of high integrity. I can be trusted in your home. I have experience with very old and very young dogs and cats, with bottle-feeding, administering meds, eye-drops, and even administering subcutaneous fluids. I have puppy trained 7 golden retrievers/standard poodles to be assistance dogs for autistic children which means I took a six-week puppy training course with each pup. I am referred to by my friends and family as the Dog Whisperer. I believe in pet in-loco parentis - pet parent in your absence! I am a preschool teacher (leave my house at 8 and return home by 4.) I like to spend as much of my free time with furry friends. I have been fostering dogs and cats for decades and have a lot of experience sharing my home with other people’s pets. Again, I believe in pet in-loco parentis - pet parent in your absence! I have yet to find an animal I couldn't love. I care for my own pets as if they were my sons and daughters, much to my real children's annoyance!
About: I’ve been a devoted cat mama for my whole adult life, and I understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing they’re well cared for while you’re away. I promise to give your cats the same loving attention and care that I give to my own! I currently work part-time and have Mondays and Fridays totally free for drop-in visits. I also have some flexibility with my schedule on the other days of the week. I’ll follow your cat’s regular routines and do everything I can to help them feel at ease, whether that’s cuddles and playtime or giving them their space.
About: I’m that friend who always volunteers to watch the dog — because I genuinely love it. I grew up with three dogs, helped my sister with her pups, and even lived with a roommate who ran a doggy daycare. I miss having furry energy around, so I’m here to give yours all the love, walks, and playtime they need! I currently work remote and am free most weeknights and weekends, so I have the flexibility during my lunch break or the ability to spend some time with the pup on a weekend. When I’m caring for your dog in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow all your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walk times to any special quirks or care details that make your pup feel safe and happy. I take time to bond with each dog so they feel comfortable with me while you’re away. Whether that means playtime in the yard, cozy cuddle sessions, or just quiet companionship, I adjust to what your pet needs. I’m respectful of your space, clean up after myself (and your dog!), and always make sure things are left as I found them. Because I’ve lived with and cared for dogs in all kinds of homes — including helping with a former roommate’s doggy daycare — I know how to be a calm, trustworthy presence in your dog’s environment. Your pup will be in loving, capable hands, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re happy and cared for.
About: Hi! I'm Susanna, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets. While my full-time career has always been in customer service, animals have always been my true passion. I worked part-time at Monster Pets, where I learned about animal care and the importance of meeting each pet's individual needs. I also volunteered with the PSPCA, helping care for animals and giving them the attention, patience, and compassion they deserve. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or plenty of cuddles, I'll treat your furry family member like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands. I work full-time from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, but I'm available for morning, evening, and weekend visits. I have reliable transportation and am happy to travel. I'm committed to providing dependable, loving care and keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and routines. I take the time to build trust with every pet, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own.I also have two cats and cared for a rescued parakeet for over 10 years, so I understand the responsibility and love that goes into caring for animals.
“Rita was very attentive and took good care of our older cat who needs special attention at times. She communicated with us in a timely way when needed. We can tell that Rita really loves pets and this work and gives it her all. Thank you Rita.”
“Responsible and very responsive sitter! I appreciate Hannah's attention to detail. She was available for a last minute request with this booking and was also able to come for an additional visit so I could extend my vacation. Thank you!!”
About: When I was young I used to have a ton of rescue dogs and it always made me happy having pets to love and comfort. Im currently working a part time jobs and going to college so it’s the perfect hustle since it will not feel like work but instead a little play date! I care for pets in my home I have a big backyard that is fenced it’s perfect for the zoomies and for some play time.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud owner of my cat, Bubba, who has taught me a lot about patience, routine, and the small things that make pets feel safe. I’ve helped friends and family care for their dogs and cats for years: feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and just being a calm presence while they’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send photo updates so you know your pet is in good hands. Whether your dog needs a long walk or your cat just wants company, I’ll treat them like my own. I have a flexible schedule and can fit pet care into most parts of my day. I’m available for morning and evening walks during the week, drop-in visits midday, and longer stays on weekends. I’ll always confirm timing in advance and stick to the routine you set for your pet: consistency matters, especially for younger or older animals. I offer drop-in visits and walks at your home, so your pet stays in the environment they know best. I’ll follow your house rules, keep doors and gates secured, and send photo updates during each visit. I live with my cat Bubba in a calm, smoke-free home, so I’m comfortable around animals who are shy or take time to warm up. If anything seems off, appetite, behavior, or health, I’ll reach out right away.
“Miranda did a great job watching over my two cats, Ninja and Scraps while I was away on vacation. I definitely would recommend her and will be using her again in the future! She left great notes and made me feel at ease while I was away. 😁 Thank you. This was the first time I have used Rover and it was a great experience. Miranda also help me understand how to use the app since I made some silly mistakes.”
About: I've been caring for pets for a little over 5 years now. I used to work at a pet store handling fish, birds and small animals as well. I have a 5 year old golden retriever as well as 2 cats. I can help administer medications for dogs and cats that need it. I can also care for elderly dogs and puppies. I don't mind bathing them or doing nail trims either. I'm currently a college student doing online classes so I have plenty of time to drop by a clients house or to have them come to mine. Right now Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays work the mest with my schedule. I would be more than willing to negotiate other timings as well. I have a fenced in backyard and a dog to keep yours company. My entire house is pet friendly and welcoming. I can also crate your dog if needed and make the environment more comfortable for them
“I’ve had some wonderful pet sitters but Diana is by far the best . Super communicative, thorough, attentive and always made sure to come in and check on Lily during the day. I have found that when I am away for longer than 2-3 nights my cat gets lonely and paces, so I wanted someone who was able to stay overnights, and I couldn’t be more pleased! Thank you, Diana, for taking such great care of Lily - she definitely enjoyed your company and it was amazing to enjoy my vacation and not worry!”
“Morgan was professional, dependable, and an excellent communicator. She showed my cats a lot of love and affection, and took excellent photos of them which helped me feel comfortable leaving my beloved kitties in her care. She kept the home tidy and cleaned up after the pets as well. She went above and beyond by bringing in packages and doing an extra personal favor to help out when requested. I would highly recommend her!”
“This was my first time getting a cat sitter through Rover and it was an experience that I would highly recommend. I was so happy that I chose Anwar to care for my older cat for 10 days. My cat requires daily meds and some extra care and Anwar tended to all of his needs in professional and caring manner. I will definitely book with Anwar in the future.”

Lisa took care of Milo with lots of love and attention while I was away she made me feel comfortable leaving him for a week. This is not the first time I have booked with Lisa and because of the wonderful care and attention she has consistently provided, it certainly will not be the last! Thanks, Lisa! Karen & Milo
Amira is super responsive and flexible - I had her do drop-in visits for an elderly kitty 2 years ago and she amazingly was able to have positive nteractions with a rather cantankerous old gal. This time she took care of the needs of 2 newer-to-me kitties who are extremely shy with strangers, but she covered all their basic needs and even left Churu out for them each day, despite them never showing their faces (their loss, for sure!). It was such a relief to know that they were in good hands while I was away. Hopefully next time they'll be braver!

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.

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.

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 .
