“Breanna came to my home on a recurring basis to watch my cats and check my mail while we were out of town for an extended period. She was very thoughtful, got our mail, and provided detailed updates and photos of my cats. I have so much peace of mind knowing she was taking great care of my cats and my home.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rachel was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and caring with both our dog and cats. She followed our instructions perfectly, arrived exactly when requested, and did an excellent job taking care of all our pets. Rachel was dependable, punctual, respectful, and genuinely kind to our animals. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pets. We will absolutely use her again!”
“Juliana did an excellent job watching our two kittens, and we were especially grateful that she was available during the holidays. When they had the zoomies and somehow managed to disconnect the internet while we were away, she handled it right away and even remembered to plug the router back in without any issues. She was also great about taking care of any other requests we had. Most importantly, she was really sweet and attentive with our girls, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. We would absolutely hire her again in the future.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, as have my friends and family, so I’ve been surrounded by them for years! Both dogs and cats. More recently, I have been cat sitting just because two of my best friends have cats (4 in total) so whenever they go away, I jump on the opportunity to watch them! I’m comfortable spending quality time, feeding, and playing with them; keeping litter boxes fresh; and even cleaning up if that’s something that’s necessary. My family dog is part pit so she’s very strong-chested which makes walking her a challenge but that just means I have the ability to walk a challenging dog. I’ve learned to slow down on my walks with her lately because those walks are really the only time she gets to explore the world so I let her take her time and I’ll let your furry friends do the same 🐾 I know how much our pets mean to us, so I’ll always treat yours like family and make sure they get plenty of love and attention on my watch! I’m currently working freelance, which means I don’t have a set schedule and can work around pretty much anything. I will have plenty of time to walk dogs/do pop-ins at any time of the day, even if you are in need of some help last-minute! I am very attentive when caring for the pets in my life! They all have their individual needs. When I'm walking my dog, I am always watching our surroundings & will cross the street if another dog is coming our way to keep some distance, especially since my girl is sometimes reactive. With the cats, I also pay close attention to things... like eating habits for example. The one friend I catsit for has three cats: one of which is picky to begin with and the other two who like to steal her food so I keep a watchful eye every time they eat to make sure everyone is getting to eat in peace!
About: I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite. Nothing in the world makes me happier than spending time with a pet. If the owner can't be around once in a while there is no need for the dog to be lonely. That is why I make the perfect dog sitter, I treat each dog like my very own pet. I care for them and their individual needs the way I would hope someone would care for my dog if I weren't around. My profession includes making my own schedule which allows me the flexibility to care for pets in their owners absence. I try to keep my radius small so that I can stop by every couple of hours for a potty break and some time outside or for some snuggles. I have a dog and cat of my own and take their care very seriously. Both get an abundance of love and snuggles. Our dog goes out multiple times a day- while we don't have a fenced in yard we do have a lot of space and availability for walks at the park a block away.
About: What sets me apart is my calm and gentle demeanor, especially beneficial for anxious or shy pets. I create a peaceful and reassuring environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm skilled at reading their body language and adapting my approach to their individual needs. I'm also very patient and understanding, giving them the time they need to adjust. I'm experienced in creating a safe and comfortable space, and I am very good at slow introductions. Pet care is a top priority in my daily and weekly routine. I believe in providing consistent care, so I establish regular feeding and walk schedules. I'm also flexible and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior and ensure they have fresh water and playtime. I genuinely love spending time with animals and providing them with the best possible care. My approach to pet care is built on providing a safe, happy, and healthy environment for every animal. Here's what that looks like: * Routine and Consistency: I understand the importance of routine, so I strictly follow feeding schedules and exercise plans provided by owners. * Personalized Attention: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. Some dogs love fetch, while others prefer gentle cuddles. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and preferences. For example, with shy cats, I use slow, gentle movements and let them approach me on their own terms.
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.
About: From puppies to older dogs, I've done it all: taking puppies out every 2 hours at night, specific medications at certain times throughout the day, to planned walks/runs. I have experience with puppy training fostering and now I'm training my own kitten. I'm a senior college student who has a lot of time to spare- especially on weekdays! I'm always available to take dogs on walks, jogs, or just for a quick little stop in. Treating fur-babies like my own has always been an easy feat for me. When it comes to home saftey, whether it be my own or a clients, simple communication goes a long way. House rules, schedules and specifications are always a big thumbs up from me!
About: Hello my name is Gia! I am currently a surgery tech at an animal shelter. I have always enjoyed caring for my own as well as family and friends pets to help out when needed. Because of my job I am experienced with all sorts of animals and their medical needs, temperaments and personalities. I am fear free certified which just means I am able to adapt my care approach better for all sorts of situations! I’ve always had a love for caring for animals weather they're my own or belong to someone else no matter how tedious or difficult their specific care may be. I enjoy dedicating my time to providing care for others animals in and outside of work, I can just never get enough. I do currently work full time so unfortunately I'm only able to care for others pets on the weekends as well as spend some time with my own. I will treat all animals like they are my own providing the absolute best care possible. Not only are you trusting me with your pet, but your home as well which is why I’d take extra precautions to make sure everything is set and secure not only for you but your pet.
“Tamikia did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away. She came at the scheduled time and did all that was asked of her and more. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. We enjoyed receiving the daily updates and photos while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”
About: I have been looking into doing petsitting for some time now and I know that from prior experience with pets and volunteer work, I am able to provide your pets’ needs in any way possible. I’m currently doing a art class until the 20th and is volunteering at the cat cafe from time to time so my availability may vary. I would clean up litters from my cats’ litter boxes and give food to them. I have been a volunteer at a cat cafe that a friend of mine was a part of for a while now. We would clean the cats’ litter boxes, food bowls, make sure that the cats are fed, and straighten up the cafe along with organizing the cats’ toys so it’s easy for the cats to navigate.
About: I love animals and enjoy spending time with pets as much as I can. I'm patient, attentive, and I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe and comfortable. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their usual routines. I will follow all of your instructions carefully and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care while you're away! My schedule is flexible while I look for work, and I'm happy to coordinate with pet parents ahead of time. I'm interested in pet sitting and dog walking opportunities that fit my schedule. I'll communicate clearly about my availability and do my best to keep your pet's routine consistent. I'm happy to discuss your pet's needs and scheduling before confirming a booking.

I'll make sure your pet is supervised appropriately, kept secure on walks, and treated with patience and care. I'll also keep you updated during bookings so you know how your pet is doing.
“We asked Berrangere to watch our pup at the last minute. She took Winnie in long walks and spent a lot of time with her at home. She was really thorough and positive in her messaging and quick to respond. Highly recommend!”
About: I've had dogs growing up, normally two at a time, and have helped take care of multiple family member's and friends' dogs over the years. I'm studying Pre-Veterinary Science in school, and have been working as the animal manager in a pet store for over 3 years! I can take animals on walks, care for them daily and do check up visits to make sure they're doing great. I'm comfortable with all types of dogs, cats, and any other kind of animals and am excited to begin helping your pets! I work part time at a pet store, but that still leaves lots of time for me to spend with own animals and helping out with all yours! I always check the water, fill up on food and give lots of attention. Two of my cats take medicine daily, so I am comfortable administering almost everything. For cats, I scoop out the litter boxes once a day, more if necessary. Dogs get taken out at least 3 times a day, more if necessary also.
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I offer help with daily walks, feeding, playtime, litter box and potty care, crate routines, and giving basic medications when needed. I also work on reinforcing training cues so pets can stay consistent with whatever structure they already have at home. I’m very attentive and patient, and I pay close attention to animal body language so I can understand how each pet is feeling and what they need. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m especially comfortable with shy, anxious, or routine focused pets who do best with calm energy and a steady, reassuring presence. I am available for pet care throughout the day depending on scheduling needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can be flexible and adjust my time to make sure pets are getting regular attention, exercise, and companionship. No matter the situation, I make sure pet care is something I can fully show up for and prioritize. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m flexible and able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as consistent weekly schedules or occasional last-minute needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a clean, calm environment. In clients’ homes, I respect routines and spaces while ensuring pets are supervised, comfortable, and stress-free. I stay alert on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and communicate promptly if anything seems off.
“Talia treated Tiger (cat) like her own. She went out of her way to purchase pill pockets to make it easier to pill him, sent pictures/videos daily, and even left the home clean and tidy. I knew she went above and beyond by the pictures she sent—Tiger was cuddled up next to her so happy! I truly felt relief everyday knowing he was in caring hands. Tiger is a very anxious elderly cat; seeing him calm and happy by Talia’s side informed me that she took the extra time to make him feel comfortable. I absolutely recommend Talia for any pet needs!”
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!
About: Experience with caring for and grooming senior pets and kittens. I’m also pretty crafty about getting pets who are reluctant to do it to eat their food/take their meds. Looking for stable work at the moment, in the mean time I’m available for petsitting, housesitting. Can do NY or Philadelphia and most places in between. I’m good at interacting with pets and feeling out how much interaction they want and when to give them space. I try to get creative with playing with them if possible.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Prospect Park
Callie was so kind and so accommodating!! My husband and I booked her last minute to watch our pets while we were at our wedding, and she was so kind and flexible with our last minute request. She also took her time to make sure our dog, Maddie, was comfortable with her being in our home, which we really appreciated, because our dog can be a little nervous when meeting new people. She also was great with her updates of our pets and was super communicative!! We would definitely recommend Callie to anyone!! We will definitely be booking with her again!!
Jacqueline went above and beyond for taking care my cats while I am gone. She did everything thing I asked for and beyond, even took out the pxxp bags or helped me look around for my cat's medication when i forgot where I kept. She truly care my pets as her own. I'll definitely book with her.
Robyn is an absolute delight to us! She takes her job even more seriously than I could expect, and goes above and beyond in all ways. She is so good at caring for all our pets, kitty, toad, and turtle. Then she gives corn to the deer that come through our property! She follows every instruction perfectly, and is extra conscientious. We are so happy to have her help us when we are away!
So grateful to have Kaylee watch our cat once again. We got very detailed updates about her every visit, and she was very content by the time we got home, which was a huge relief. Kaylee takes incredible care of our pets and our home. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Lyra & giving us peace of mind! ❤️

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.

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 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.
