“Emily was great! She communicated with me every step of the way and took really great care of my fur baby. I appreciate her attention to detail and sticking to my instructions. I’ll definitely book her again in the future.”
“Lesly and her family were amazing. I was in a strange situation, where I was moving across the country with my dog and two cats, but had to stop along the way in the Houston area, and leave my pets so I could fly out for a couple days to a job interview before getting back on the road. I needed someone to do check-in visits with the cats (one of them is very old and has feeding requirements) and to board my dog who is a little bit nervous when I'm gone. I was a nervous wreck about the whole situation. But Lesly came through for me. I took my dog Sombrita over to meet her a couple days before I left; and then Lesly also came over to meet my cats before the trip. Sombrita was really scared and timid when I left. But Lesly and her family were gentle and sweet with her, and she warmed up quickly, and had fun while she was there. Lesly sent me pictures and videos of everyone each day to put me at ease, and was always very responsive. I'm really grateful for her care.”
“Dominic is incredible. I gave him numerous, detailed instructions and he did them perfectly, even taking pictures of them!!! I could tell my cats were very happy with him.”
“Wendy was THE absolute best!! She was very kind and accommodating!! I had complications happen with my move and at the last minute, she didn’t hesitate to keep my babies an extra day!! I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend Wendy!! And, while I don’t often have a need, any time I do, she’s who I will go to 💕”
“They took amazing care of our two dogs while we were out of town. Very dependable and great communication. Sometimes when we leave, the dogs don’t eat and seem to shut down but this wasn’t the case at all this time. Thank you so much!!”

I am home from my first class around 11:30 am, my second around 5 pm and can get to you pretty quick depending on how far you live. feed them on schedule, provide fresh water, give exercise and playtime, clean up after them, and offer comfort and attention.

“Melinda was awesome!! She accepted last minute drop in visits for my two dogs and went above and beyond! She texted updates and spent quality time with them. Will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Big, small, young, old, special needs or playing never ending fetch, I love all dogs and they always have a special place in my heart. I’m very patient and down for anything your four-legged needs. Currently, I’m in between jobs, so I am available to care for your babies whenever you need me. I’m happy to take walks, play, swim or just hang out with your dogs. Each dog is different and making sure that you’re present and ready for whatever is the key to making sure our dogs have the best care. That definitely extends to the way I care for my friends’ and clients’ animals. I know how to work with animals that need more patience and/or care, plus my focus is to make sure that your dog is relaxed instead of stressed when you come home.
About: I have taken care of several family and friend’s pets over the years and would love to care for others’ pets. I have a flexible schedule and open to help! I am a freelance marketer that specializes in automotive. I am a product specialist for various brands such as Cadillac, BMW, and KIA. I also have experience in performance racing. I treat all animals as if they are my own or family and will give them the most gentle and attentive care. I believe all pets should be treated with the utmost care
“Jada was an absolutely dream to work with. This is the longest we have been away from our cat and Jada took such good care of him. He trusted her right away and loved having her come over. She sent amazing pictures that made us feel at ease being so far away from our cat. We will definitely book again.”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Benji over the two days she watched him. From the very beginning, she was warm, communicative, and super attentive. I received regular updates with pictures and videos, and it brought me so much peace of mind knowing Benji was in such good hands. She walked him, fed him! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and enjoys what she does. Benji looked so happy and comfortable with her, and I could tell he had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future, thank you so much, Shannon!”
“Gabriela was wonderful with Athena. She took very good care of her and she didn't want her to leave. I will definitely ask her again to watch over Athena when I need to.”
“Tamara was great with my two girls. She asked questions and communicated with me during the visits. It definitely eased my anxiety of leaving my kitties with a new sitter. I recommend Tamara for her kindness and attention that she’ll give to your pets.”
“We only needed them temporarily but they did a great job taking care of our fur baby and making sure he had plenty of attention and exercise in the middle of the day.”
About: Growing up, animals were always a big part of my life. I’ve had hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, chinchillas, rabbits, turtles, frogs, ducks, and chicks. Being around so many different animals taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and understanding of each animal’s unique personality and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on walks, playing, providing meals and fresh water, giving them attention and affection, or simply keeping them company. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, and I’m happy to follow their specific care instructions. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you feel confident knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away! I do work full time so this is definitely more of a part time job for me :) but I will work best with you as my schedule allows! Im over the top when it comes to love and caring for animals so I will make sure to meet the necessary standards on making you feel comfortable and safe leaving your animals in my care.

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 .
