About: I work remotely, which means I have a flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time with pets while caring for them in the comfort of their own home. I've been a dog and cat owner since 2009, and while my two dogs sadly passed away a few years ago, that experience taught me a lot about routines, personalities, and all the little quirks that make each pet unique. I know many pets feel most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible, whether that's walks, playtime, meals, medication, or simply keeping them company throughout the day. I'm used to everything from energetic zoomies to picky eaters to pets with very specific walk preferences, and I do my best to meet each pet where they are. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you're never left wondering how things are going and can relax knowing your pet is receiving plenty of attention, care, and affection while you're away. Working from home gives me a lot of flexibility to fit pet care naturally into my day, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medication, or simply spending quality time together. Because I work remotely, most pets are rarely left alone for extended periods, which can be especially helpful for dogs who experience separation anxiety or just enjoy having company around. I do my best to keep pets' routines as consistent as possible, since many dogs are most comfortable when their day feels familiar and predictable. Whether it's sticking to their normal walking schedule, feeding times, favorite activities, or just providing companionship, my goal is to help them feel relaxed, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I provide pet care in your pet's home, where many dogs and cats feel most comfortable and secure. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible by following their usual schedules for walks, meals, playtime, medications, and anything else that helps them feel at ease. I make sure pets receive plenty of one-on-one attention, companionship, and care while you're away, so they're not just being watched, they're being cared for. If I'm house sitting, I'm also happy to help with small household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping an eye on the home. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you always know how things are going. Since I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, I'm able to accommodate midday breaks, overnight stays, and longer care periods. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for in the place they know best.
“Liz takes extra great care of my cat! Gives him lots of love, and I’ve noticed even cleans up a little around his living spaces. I feel good knowing my cat is well taken care of while I’m away”
“Molly did a tremendous job caring for our cat while on vacation. She has been friendly, communicative, professional, and reliable. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I am the friends and family dog sitter! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I could still pet them for hours and not get bored. On average I stay at someone houses for a week while they’re on vacation as well as but not as often a weekend stay. As well as drop in visits to feed, walk or let pets out to do their business. I am great will all breads and sizes of dogs/cats, as well as ages such as senior animals. I personally took are of our 90lb 11 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback after her back legs gave out. So while using a harness I would help her do everything, such as standing up to eat, move around and go outside. I can also do things like trimming nails and bathing them (especially if you unable to bath them yourself). I truly care and feel for every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently not working full time at the moment and have been doing small jobs here and there such as dog sitting for friends and family. I have a great portion of time for spend getting to know and engaging in your pets. I’m available anytime after 9am. I will care for your pets the way I would care for my own and in such continue their regular and daily routine. Including things such as walking them in the morning/night, playing with them and loving them or any other needed or wanted activities.
“Mandee provided exceptional care for our 2 cats (& checked on our home/mail/trash). We appreciated the updates and pictures she provided. She played with our fur babies and made sure they were set with litter, food, and water each day. Would recommend and definitely book her again.”
“Thank you so much for this last-minute coverage & trying your hardest to help my lil guy even when I wasn’t available. Sherlock likes you so, I hope to work with you in the near future again!”
“Debbie was great with my maltipoo! I could tell from the pictures she sent me that he was very relaxed with her. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again soon!”
“Emily was great with our Golden Retriever. My boyfriend and I work nights at the hospital, so we needed to find someone to let her out while we are at work. You can tell she loves animals and you can trust her with your pet. Thanks Emily!”
“Soo sweet and easy to book with! All my babies loved her, even my cat who’s scared of everyone and everything. She always took great care of everyone. I highly recommend!!”
“Ivana is a punctual and a conscientious sitter and took great care of my dogs and my place. She takes her job seriously, was respectful to me and went above and beyond to care for my dogs. I will definitely use her services again. I am happy to have found her.”
“We were so grateful to have Alaina step in for a few last-minute drop-ins for our dogs, Lily and Luca (who absolutely love her!!). She is reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced in handling dogs with care and attention. Knowing our dogs were in good hands gave us such peace of mind. We appreciated the updates and the extra effort she put into making sure they were comfortable and happy. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pets, we highly recommend Alaina!”
“Kelsey rules! She is always on time and a great communicator. Our German Shepherd loves her and she makes the most out of her stop in visits with plenty of play and potty breaks. Will continue to book as her and Forrest are available!”
About: I have been with rover, dog bording, since 2018. I love animals, they are my favorite. I pet every dog I see. I have also been around animals my whole life. When I was younger I had a dog named rocky, he was a cocker spaniel and a beagle mix, I had him for 13 years. When we had to put him down part of my soul left, he was my best friend. I know what its like to love your beautiful animals, through hard times they are always there for us. They are all created with beautiful souls, we are so lucky to have something like that by our sides. With that being said, I would love to take in your pet as if it were my own. Thank you for reading. Ps.I do NOT have cats or any animals. For some reason it says I have cats. 🤷♀️ I currently am a stay at home mom so I am able to be with your pups all day! I am able to get to know your dog and they dont think im a stranger when they come back! I have a lot of space to take your dog for a walk. We walk in the morning and I take them for a long walk before bed, and to crate if needed.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Plainfield Township
Very pleased! All the animals (1 dog and 2 cats) were well taken care of with daily updates and photos. Amanda went above and beyond the agreed upon plan with a carpet cleaning from one of the cats, cleaning food/water bowls, and messages for the elderly dog! Highly recommend!
This was my first time using Rover and I had a great experience with Meghan. She was available even though the booking was short notice (under two weeks). We met briefly to go over the pets’ routine before we left. She was efficient and communicative, sending photos and responding if I had any questions. Many thanks, Meghan! Good luck with the end of vet school!
Taylor was exactly what I was looking for in a cat sitter. Communicative and caring in what she does. As a first time rover user, Taylor put me at ease and updated me daily on how my cat was doing. She is new to a medicine and Taylor did a great job ensuring she took her pill daily. I cant recommend her enough to watch your pets!

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.

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.
