“I can’t stress enough how amazing Nelson and Donna are! The reviews helped me select them to take care of our four cats, it was difficult to leave our furry babies behind to go on vacation.

On weekends, I’m completely free and can dedicate extra time to walks, playtime, and cuddles. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure by following their usual routines and respecting their individual needs. In my care, pets are always supervised, kept in clean and safe environments, and given plenty of love and attention. I’m careful to follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided. Whether I’m in my home or yours, your pet’s well-being always comes first.

“We had a wonderful experience with Anthony as our pet sitter. From the moment we met him, he was extremely polite, professional, and trustworthy. Our cat Betty was clearly in great hands while we were away, she was calm, healthy, and very well cared for when we returned. On top of that, everything was left clean and perfectly in order, which we truly appreciated. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing both our home and our cat were being looked after so carefully. We would highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and we will absolutely ask for his help again in the future.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Port Richey
Lisa was awesome as always! Our kitties love her visits, and we can really tell she loves our kitties. ❤️ We know that we don't have to worry about a thing when Lisa cares for our babies. She is so kind & sweet, and provides many cute videos and pics with each visit. Thank you thank you thank you Lisa!
This is my first rime using Rover and I must say, I am truly pleased with Briana! Her daily updates and photos definitely made me feel so much at ease with leaving my babies behind during my 9 day vacation to Rome. I was very worried at first but immediately felt relief when I received her 1st visit report card with photos and even videos! Briana had the lowest price on here and I can honestly say that her service was top notch! Will definitely use this and hopefully her again if I go on another trip.
Our deepest thanks to Bethany! I was so afraid to leave my cat Red girl alone, we have never left her. Bethany came and went over every detail I had and made me so comfortable. I knew Red was in great hands. We received pictures and messages. I wouldn’t want anyone else to take care of my pets in future trips! Excellent job I wish I could leave a 100 stars for Bethany’s review.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
