“Leah was quite literally the best dog sitter we have ever had. She was so kind and loving to our girl and we didn’t worry a bit while we were out of town. We will absolutely be using Leah again!”
“Can't say enough good things about Larry! He treats our dog like gold and is so incredibly reliable. We've used Larry multiple times and will continue to as long as we can!”
About: I’ve had dogs of all shapes and sizes my entire life and haven’t found one I don’t love! My wife brought a sweet one eyed cat into my life and I have found a new love for them as well. I currently have a 10 year old senior pitbull and a very high energy 1 year old american bully who would be a great play friend for any energy matching dog. I love to run and my previous dog was the best running partner I ever had. I would love to find an athlete to take out for some exercise! I currently work part time so I’m home and available after 2pm. My days completely off during the week are Sun & Mon but I am still available for walks and play in the afternoons throughout the week. I have a huge 3/4 acre fully fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play. I have 2 friendly dogs. One being a lazy 10 year old man and one being a very high energy 1 year old that has yet to meet his match!
“Second time i had Emily do check ins for my girls while we were away, and based on the pictures, safe to say they enjoy Emily! They are always cheerful, and i come home to a clean mess free home and no accidents :) So i know emily truly takes time and care for them while she stops in. She will be my go to every time!”
“I cannot thank Courtney enough, I had a family emergency and had to leave very quickly for over two weeks. She took great care of my cat despite his idiosyncrasies. Great updates and kitty was very happy.”
“Lillie was great! She took excellent care of my dog and did a great job of keeping me informed and providing photos. She even went above and beyond by bringing a delivered package in from the porch. Also, she accepted this dog sitting very last minute when my original sitter had to cancel. I would not hesitate to utilize Lillie’s services again in the future and recommend her to my friends and family! Thanks again, Lillie!”
“Lura is such an amazing sitter! Both our cat and dog love her so much and get super excited to see her whenever she visits. She takes such great care of them both and really loves on them like her own. We are incredibly grateful to have found her!”
“Jen has been great! She is communicative and makes it easy to coordinate. Our (often skittish) dog took some time to warm up, but Jen was patient and worked with her to feel comfortable. Now she’s thrilled to see Jen and sad when she has to say goodbye. All around, an amazing experience.”
About: I’ve take care of all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles) since I was 10 years old. I have always been a trustworthy person to take care of your beloved family member. I am a teacher, a dog and cat owner myself. I am reliable, honest and kind to every person and animal big or small. I’m a teacher who has open summers. I can come morning, afternoon, or night. I have my own dog and cats that I care for on a daily basis and I would treat your animals just like I would my own. I have a fenced yard with a very friendly, spayed Dalmatian named Blue.

“Kimberly did a fabulous job taking care of our beagle babies. They loved her and enjoyed their time with her. She made us and the babies feel at ease. We knew they were well taken care of because she takes her pet sitting duties seriously. We will definitely reach out to Kimberly in the future. We highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“Ashley is a mature and caring person; she is easy going with people & pets, but sticks to her set schedule. She has learned our quirky dog's behavior and been able to take care of 4 of our pets at once without trouble. I'm a pet sitter, as well, and we have worked jobs together at alternating times and we have similar standards of care for the pets we care for, which I appreciate.”
About: I have grown up with all types of animals; cats, dogs, hamsters, birds, and even horses! I take pet care very seriously and enjoy getting to know new fur babies and their personalities. I can drop in in the afternoons around lunch and in the evenings during the week, and on weekends I am free all day to check on your pets. I will make sure your pets get love and attention and not just a quick pop in visit (unless specifically requested). I like to make sure the pet feels safe and secure in their environment while I take care of them
About: I am a dedicated momma to 2 human teenager and 1 fur baby, Oliver. I've cared for multiple pets in our home, checked on neighbor's dogs when they're out of town, and also fostered dogs in need of a safe place to stay. We're a dog family through and through. I'm in between jobs right now so I'm available for walking, drop-ins, boarding, and day care and can take on short notice gigs. I can't wait to love on your fur baby! I have a very open and flexible schedule. I prefer to offer care M-F during the hours of 9:00 am and 9:00 pm, but I'm also flexible if the need arises! I always meet a new dog with gentleness and let them feel me out - smell my hand, don't approach them, give a treat, etc. I always stick to the instructions and routine provided by their family to keep the care as stress-free as possible for the pup. My goal in pet care is to make sure the dogs feel loved and cared for while their owners are away!
“Abby was so attentive to my pups! She gave them so much love and made sure they got lots of activity during her visits. She was very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend her.”
“Kaelyn was AMAZING!! She was flexible to our schedule, was so loving and kind to our two cats, and gave us amazing updates on how they were doing. She made us feel so comfortable knowing our girls were in good hands!”
“Alicia was amazing. She really went above, and beyond. She kept our little guy feeling safe, calm & loved while we were on our trip. She sent wonderful photos and updates every check-in and we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. It was the longest we had been away from him, and was obvious that he’d been in very good hands.”
About: I had always enjoyed take care of dogs. I have a rescued dog and he is my best friend. I had always had dog throughout my life and they become part of my family.

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.
