“Nora is a fantastic pet sitter. She's conscientious, detailed, and compassionate. My cat got some dental work done just before our trip. Nora was incredibly diligent with his extra care needs. I highly recommend booking Nora for cat/house sitting.”
About: I’ve always had a close connection to animals since I was younger! I currently work at a dog daycare, handling anywhere from 40-60 dogs all in one group. I’ve been a dog daycare employee for the past five years and on top of that do pet sitting for the business as well. I currently work at a dog daycare, we’re only open during the week so I’m fully available on the weekends. I can still do pet sits, drop ins, etc. during the week, although there are some days I work from 7am-6pm, a morning shift for me would be 7-12 and afternoon 12-6. (The only way I would be able to bring your dog into daycare with me is if you signed them up for daycare and went through the interview process) or else I could bring them but they would be sitting in a crate the whole time:( When pet sitting a non daycare dog, if I’m working all day 7-6 I do get an hour lunch break at noon, where I then have the time to run back to the dog to let them out etc. When I stay at a clients house I make sure that before I leave for good everything looks exactly as it did before I got there. Depending on the age and abilities of the dog determines how our time is spent. If it’s an older or not very fit, energetic dog we may just relax in the house for the most part. For dogs with more energy that need to do something, we will do activities based on the clients/dogs preferences. As well as I am an active person and love going hiking on nice days, I’m happy to take dogs for hikes to get some exercise as long as the dog is fit to do so and the owner gives permission.
“This was our first time booking with Julia and we were so happy with her visits! She is super friendly, great at communicating, and our cats liked her instantly! Would absolutely recommend Julia to look after your pets!”
“I was very nervous to use an app like this since I’m trusting someone with my babies… but Julie put me at ease and was amazing. Both of my kitties were super happy and well taken care of. 10/10 would book again.”
“Bethany truly went above and beyond for a last-minute drop-in after a schedule change kept us out of town overnight. Not only were our pets taken care of as asked, but they were played with, loved on, and our home was left better than we left it - with dishes and feeding mats washed and cleaned and litter boxes checked and attended to. We were truly blown away and so grateful after a long day. We feel completely confident in this sitter’s abilities and will absolutely be return clients.”
“Nataliia was great! She was very responsive to our last minute needs, and was able to squeeze in a meet & greet before we left on our trip. She was professional, and asked questions about care appropriately. She visited our cats in a timely manner each day, and sent us lots of picture updates. Our cats seemed well cared for upon our return. We will definitely use Nataliia for future cat care!”
“I had Julie do drop in visits for my two cats. She was reliable and great with them. I received pictures which made me happy. She gave my babies attention and played with them and I knew they were in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook with Julie!”
“Larissa is wonderful and so caring for our pups. She paid special attention to our gentle old lady dog and seemed amused by our precocious younger one. Will happily hire her again.”
“Lauren is amazing! I booked her last minute to watch my 3 cats for a week and she absolutely set my mind at ease while I was away. I loved the daily photo and video updates. I will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12 and have experience with all kinds of personalities and ages, from puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. I currently have a senior dog myself, so I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable with extra care routines. Friends and family always count on me first for pet sitting because I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience caring for cats and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I’m able to accommodate all kinds of pet care needs including walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, puppy care, and senior pets who need extra attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or a client’s home, they’ll get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day.
“Sam was fantastic with Ris and knowing that she was coming by to give him attention gave me so much peace of mind! I really appreciated the photos she sent from their play session. ?”
“We appreciate M so much for watching our cats over the holidays. We can fully trust that they will be well taken care of. Absolutely would recommend M to watch your pets!”
“Victoria was great with Layla and Adonis. She arrived on time for each scheduled day and provided excellent care to the dogs. We truly appreciate that she was available for the days requested and plan to use her again in the future. Thanks so much Victoria!”
“Nina is very responsible and took great care of my new puppy, Charlotte. She played with her, took her outside gave her a snack and made sure she is left in her enclosed area. Will definitely re-hire!”
“Samantha did an awesome job with the kitties while I was away! Thank you so much for bringing them company and for being so sweet with them. They look so happy in the photos.”

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.
