“Katie is the only sitter who’s ever been able to make my shy cat comfortable enough to come out from under the bed while we were away! She does a wonderful job, great update photos and just a great cat person.”
“Allison left the funniest and detailed notes after her visits to see our boys! She is reliable, a good communicator and made sure our cats were well cared for while we were away for the weekend. We will definitely have Allison over again and would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I often pet sit for puppies only a few months old, and cared for my senior girl as her mobility decreased. I have also taken care of dogs that followed strict diets and medication routines. Providing the care that your dog requires to keep them happy and healthy is my priority! Whether they prefer to take it easy and chill on the couch, or go on long walks and play fetch for hours, I will adapt and ensure your pup is happy. I am currently finishing up my master’s degree, and am doing my internship part time during the week. My schedule is flexible for the days that I provided availability, so I am happy to adapt to your needs! I am happy to follow the safety guidelines and routines that you have set for your pet. I have a fenced in yard at my home for my pets, and they roam in and out all day. However, I have also watched pets without a fenced in yard that needed to be leashed when they go outside so I am happy to adapt and supervise your dog just as you would! If you prefer to crate your dog when they are indoors, I will happily do so as well so as to not impact your pet’s sense of normalcy and the rules they need to follow. If you prefer your dog to be alone on walks, I’d be happy to walk them in places where there are few other people or dogs around so that they feel safe.
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the special bond between dogs and their owners, and I’m committed to providing your dog with the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime in the yard, or snuggle sessions on the couch, I focus on keeping your dog happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I tailor my care to meet each dog’s unique energy level and needs. From feeding routines to maintaining training consistency, I ensure your dog feels secure and comfortable in your absence. With me, your dog will enjoy the care and companionship they need, so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands! As a hairstylist with a flexible schedule, I have the perfect balance of availability and passion for animals to provide exceptional care for your pets. I offer pet sitting services right in the comfort of your home, ensuring your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. Whether you’re away for a short trip or a longer vacation, I can take care of your pet’s daily needs—feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, and of course, lots of love and attention. I understand how important it is for pets to stay in their own space, and I’ll keep their routine consistent to minimize stress. From checking in on them during the day to overnight stays, I can provide the care your pet needs while you’re away, all without them having to leave home!
“Kay has been great housesitting our two cats, one of whom has very specific needs and routines. Kay is always on time with arrival and feedings and we come home to happy boys!”
“Isabell is the BEST!! One of our cats ended up locked in a spare bedroom and Isabell followed her meows and let her out. And then she sent us a video explaining everything. Would 100% have her back.”
“Allyssah was great with my three dogs during her drop in visits. She took the time to meet them while I was home prior to the visits and was very friendly and asked good questions to make sure she was prepared. She was very punctual and sent lots of pictures and updates. I would book her again!”
“I was away for 5 days and Stephanie did a great job caring for my chickens. She is reliable, friendly, trustworthy, and most importantly kind to my chickens!! Thank you, Stephanie! <3”
“I can't recommend Teaghan enough! I am a first time Rover user and I was super anxious about it. I had another sitter booked originally but they were flaky so I had to find someone else last minute and Teaghan was sooo easy to work with and accommodating. I am so happy I found her and would definitely use her again in the future :)”
About: I have grown up with animals of all types. Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, frogs, etc! I have a lot of love for all animals, of all ages, shapes and sizes! I currently have a 9 month old boxer and a 2 year old betta fish. I grew up with two chihuahuas as well. I previously fostered a 140 pound pitbull/american bulldog and had 4 cats! I will provide love and care to your sweet pets as if they were my own. I am currently working full time as a nurse and will only be available on weekends or Friday evenings. I will also be available on Thursday evening as well! I will be able to take care of your animal however you need. I can administer medications as needed and provide medical care as well. Whatever you need, I can do it for you!
About: Starting when I was only two years old, I became the neighborhood dog walker. Over the years, I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, turtles, hamsters, rabbits, lizards, birds, and more. In 2020, I began my own cat rescue and to date have saved 40 stray/feral cats and kittens. I have experience working as a Veterinary Assistant, and am certified in Cat and Dog First Aid. My house is full of fur babies - I have a pit bull and three cats of my own. I know how stressful it can be to go away and leave them, and I hope to alleviate some of that stress! ❤️ I work as a therapist in Dedham. My schedule is semi flexible and I work remotely on Wednesdays. I do not work on Fridays or over the weekends. I feel very comfortable with all animals. My rescue work has taught me how to work well with terrified or aggressive animals, and I have a lot of patience. I feel comfortable crating dogs if that is requested, as well as walking very big or very strong dogs.
“USophia was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our dog while we were away for the weekend and truly went above and beyond. We had her scheduled for three drop-in visits each day, and she was always on time and often stayed even longer than expected to spend extra time with our dog, which meant so much to us. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire weekend. She sent us lots of photos and updates at every visit, so we were able to see how our dog was doing and felt completely at ease while we were away. Sophia was incredibly kind, attentive, reliable, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Sophia with our dog again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring. We will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️”

This was our second time booking care for our kitty, Turtle, with Hailey. She does a wonderful job and our usually shy cat absolutely adores her. We definitely feel a little less guilty leaving Turtle at home for our trips because we know that Hailey will take great care of her. We love getting pictures from Hailey’s visits to our baby while we’re away! Would absolutely book with Hailey again and again!
Katie once again took care of my cats for me and once again did a great job ! Always sends pictures and gives updates which I appreciate so much . I would recommend her anytime . She is always so dependable . I never have to worry knowing she’s checking on them . I think it’s been 4 or 5 occasions now and every time it’s worked out great !
Dan and Serena were very attentive to our cats' feeding schedules and made sure they had lots of playtime. One of our cats had an accident and they cleaned it up perfectly as if it were never there and even brought out the trash. I highly recommend Serena and would trust her to watch our fur(less) babies 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.

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 Meet & Greet .
