“As always, Ellie did a fantastic job taking care of my boys. She accepted my request on short notice and still showed up with a smile, plenty of pets, and was paid with oodles of slobbery kisses. We are so grateful for her!”
“Ann provided excellent care to our two cats while we were out of town for 8 days. The updates and photos she sent were very helpful and gave me peace of mind. We will request her service again when we travel.”
“Meg came to meet our dog for the first time and it was a very successful experience. We are grateful for her flexibility and enthusiasm and we all enjoyed our time with her. We are having Meg come walk Creed while we are away and feel very comfortable with the arrangement. We highly recommend her already!!”
“McKenna had amazing communication while we were away which helped a lot. My cat is a handful but they became best buddies by the end of the booking. So happy with how she ensure he was well taken care of and gave updates on how he was doing. I appreciated all she did for our cat while we were gone. We got back to a very happy cat and home!”
“Samantha is AMAZING! She was so good with our high maintenance kitty and followed all of our directions. She even searched all of her hiding spots so she could check on her and send us a pic. Would recommend!!”
“Jessica was amazing! It’s obvious she loves animals and we were able to have peace of mind because of her extensive experience with animals. We would love to have Jessica watch Clementine again!!”
About: I have had pets my entire life, and they are part of my family. 25 years experience, also rescuing and helping at wildlife in need. I have experience giving medications to all types of pets. My experience with pets are: Dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, bearded dragons, fancy rats, ferrets, rabbits, geckos, fish, and birds. I have also had experience working with elderly dogs that require extra medical attention. I am a professional who has been working with the same company for over 20 years. I have worked from home for the past 15 years. Now that my kids are grown, I am looking to work on weekends with your pets! Planning a long vacation? I could help, If given enough notice I could watch your pets in your home just as long as there is the internet as I work during the day. I can work in your home on the weekends, which will allow me to devote 100% to them. I can take them on walks, play in the yard with them. And for other types of animals, I also have experience with: Fancy Rats, Cats, Kittens, Bearded Dragons, Ferrets, and Rabbits.
About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.
“Natalee V. did a wonderful job of taking care of Huey Lewis! She played with him and made sure he had fresh water and scooped the litter. She also gave him his medications and he did very well while we were on vacation.”
“Thank you for the amazing care! Our baby really needed comfort while we were gone and we felt so comfortable with him in your care. Highly recommend Mackenna! We’ll be returning clients for sure!!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats. I also did dog obedience and agility in 4-h. I love getting out to go for walks. I enjoy my time outdoors. I am open to any day of the week at any time. I often get my dog out three times a day for a walk. Depending on the day with my husband schedule, I would need to work around that. I have one dog that is very friendly and high energy at times. She likes to play a little rough and loves making new friends. I get her out 3-4 times a day. Rather that is for an hour long walk or even just going to the bathroom.
“Heather was wonderful! Clover was well taken care of and enjoyed the walks and play time she had with Heather. We really appreciated the pictures showing that our girl was enjoying her visits. 10/10 highly recommend Heather's services!”
“We have house rabbits and needed someone trust worthy to bunny-sit them. I found Brianna on rover and upon doing a face to face realized she would treat my bunnies with love and respect. She listened to and agreed with me when we discussed how rabbits should never be handled by the scruff since they don't have a scruff. While we were away she came in and kept the bunnies fed, treated and clean! Both rabbits were excited when I came in the door from our trip and they asked for treats and greets. I could tell Brianna spent some time playing with them. Over all it was an unusual pet to sit and she rose to the occasion professionally and was trustworthy. I highly recommend Brianna for walking and visiting your precious furry friends anytime!”
About: I'm an animal lover who has grown up with pets in my life since I was a kid. I grew up in rural Wisconsin so not only did we have the standard cats/dogs around but we also cared for cows and other farm animals. I'm very comfortable with helping your dog/cat take medicine as I have experience giving pills/eyedrops etc to several pets that I've looked after in the past. There's plenty of space for your pet here! We live in a 3 bedroom house with a huge unfinished basement which we use as a 38 foot X 18 foot animal play area which is especially handy on those snowy/rainy days where it's hard to get those high energy dogs outside for a good walk/run. There's also plenty of space in both the front and back yard to allow for pets to run around. The neighborhood is in a low traffic subdivision with lots of pet owners so everybody keeps an eye out for each others pets and walks are quiet and safe as there's no through traffic in the area.
“Rachel did a great job checking on my cats while I was away. She showed up when she said she would and my typically shy cat even came out to say hi. I'll be happy to rebook her the next time I travel.”
“Jenna is great . She did super with our dog and is caring and is wonderful with dogs. Sh helped us on short notice. She went out of her way to accommodate our schedule. Thanks Jenna for all your help with our dog.”
About: I have dog/cat sat for neighbors when I was younger and I am a huge animal lover. I have experience and will spoil your pet. I currently work Mon-Fri 8am-5pm looking to find a little side gig taking care of peoples pets so they can enjoy getting away every now and then. On leash depends on how the customer cares for their dog. I’m a huge pet lover and love to take care of any size dog or cat.
“Addison was fantastic! From the moment she walked in the door, all 3 of our dogs gravitated towards her. She has such a way with them - truly a dog whisperer! We will definitely use Addison again in the future.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Platteville
Ann is a thorough and caring sitter. She looked in our cat while we were away for a long weekend. Because he is an indoor/outdoor cat, the care instructions are a bit different than an indoor only cat. Ann followed through on all which we really appreciated. Plus, she took the time to give Toby plenty of attention during her visits which he loves. She is terrific!
McKenna took great care of our four cats while we went away for a long weekend. We met beforehand to go over what our four cats needed (separate feeding locations and medication) and McKenna picked up their names and what each needed very quickly! She also brought in a package that was delivered while we were away.

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a 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.
