“Debbie was awesome! All instructions were followed exactly, and she was even able to snap a few pics each day of my skittish little one who was always hiding. The peace of mind that Debbie gave me while I was across the country for the week eased my anxiety of leaving my little girl behind knowing she was in good hands. Totally recommend!”
“Amazing! Gave my cats lots of attention and was patient when one wasn’t wanting to eat. Sent plenty of photos and communication was great. Will definitely be using her again. Can’t recommend enough.”
“Morgan was wonderful! She went above and beyond for our dogs, which made our time away feel much more relaxing. She will definitely be a repeat sitter for us if we need it in the future.”
“I felt completely comfortable leaving my cat at home knowing that Kayla would be there every day to check on her! She is very reliable and the communication was great! I will definitely use her services again when I travel!”
“I really want to appreciate you for sticking by my cats side during their after surgery healing. I feel awful for bee biting. But you stuck by her side afterwards. You communicated so well and the pictures helped giving me some relief.”
About: I currently have 3 (Riesen 18, Buddy 10, and Pepper 7) cats. I have also had a hedgehog, a dog with special dietary needs, fish, and bees. I am here to help keep them stress free and keep their routines as normal as possible. I love animals and ready to cuddle your sweet animal while you are away. I'm available Friday thru Monday and can check on your fur baby at least a couple times a day. I hope to give lots of cuddles and provide you lots of updates I can easily make sure to follow any security measures, check fences, just let me know your routine and I can implement during met and greets just give me a run down.
“Holly was great! I asked her very last minute and she was so nice and flexed her schedule to come meet my babies before I had to leave town. This was their first time with a sitter and they were so well taken care of. I’ll definitely be doing it again!”
“Amber and her daughter were great with our boy smeagol while we were away for a wedding. Based on the photo updates we got it seems like he warmed up to them pretty quick. Met us ahead of time too which I think gave us all peace of mind. Overall good communication, consistent schedule. We would definitely book her again if she was available.”
“Mandy did a great job taking care of my cats and was very kind and helpful. Communication was great as well. would highly recommend Mandy as your pet sitter, and I will definitely be using Mandy again in the future!”
“This went great. He came over and learned the house as well as my cat beforehand. She liked him immediately. And I noticed that he automatically uses distraction when n an animal does something wrong. (I used to be a certified dog trainer and do consults and the behavior hotline for an SPCA.) He sent pictures during. Best of all, she wasn't frantic when we got home like when we have just a visit each day. Then in the evening she went yowling around the guest room looking for him! Other things, the house was at least as clean when we got home as when we left. And he left us banana bread!”
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for pets and years of dedicated experience. Though I didn’t always love cats, everything changed when a stray named Dior stole my heart—now I’m as devoted to cats as I am to dogs. I provide personalized care, ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Building trust with both animals and their owners is my priority, and my passion shines through in every walk, cuddle, and moment I share with them. I currently have a flexible schedule as I'm between jobs, which allows me to dedicate ample time to pet sitting and dog walking. Alongside my pet care services, I'm preparing to pursue a long-term goal of becoming a funeral director. This future career reflects my commitment to compassion and support, both for pets and their owners, and eventually for families in their times of need. My flexibility ensures reliable and dedicated care for your pets, making sure they're always happy and well-cared for. I care for pets in the comfort of their own homes, providing a familiar and stress-free environment. With several years of experience, I treat animals like family, ensuring they receive the same love and attention I give my own pets. I am trustworthy and reliable, maintaining open communication and regular updates so that pet owners feel confident their furry friends are well cared for.
“One of the most professional and caring people I have ever met. She is always so accommodating for my kittens and they love her! She’s literally the best.”

About: I love all animals, and I’ve been working at a pet store for a year now. I love seeing all the different animals that come in every day. I enjoy helping people find stuff for their pets and greeting them all when they walk through the door. I have many regulars that I love seeing, and I’d love to meet more. I really can’t wait to meet your babies and get to know them. I’m currently working at a pet store I love working there and meeting all the different animals that walk through the doors I’d be happy to do these on my days off and work it into my routine I’m able to help with meds and do whatever is needed to help your baby feel comfortable I gave it harnesses on dogs and crate them if needed. I do a lot of that work at my job I help people fit their dogs harnesses and collars perfectly at work and help them find the best care for them!
About: I’ve spent the last 5+ years working in a small animal ICU at a veterinary hospital, so caring for pets isn’t just something I enjoy, it’s what I do every day. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including seniors, shy pets, and those with medical needs. Whether your pet needs medications, extra patience, or just a lot of love, I’ve got it covered. Outside of work, I’m the kind of person who will absolutely stop to say hi to every dog I pass (no exceptions). I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced, reliable hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own, because they deserve nothing less. Can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐶🐱 I have a consistent overnight schedule (6pm–6am) Sunday through Tuesday, so I’m available during the day on those days and have open availability Wednesday through Friday. I also work one Saturday a month, with occasional weekend availability otherwise. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I make sure every pet gets reliable, attentive care and plenty of love! For walks and drop-ins, I keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free by following your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I match each pet’s energy, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or some quality cuddle time (plus a few compliments, of course). With my veterinary ICU background, I also keep a close eye on their health and behavior.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 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 .
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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
