“Kaitlyn did a great job watching my cat for me while I was gone for a while. He was happy and healthy when I returned. I received photos twice daily when she checked in and it was great!”

“CJ did a great job with the cats while I was gone for 10 days. He was able to come twice a day and hang out with them and give them the attention they needed. He updated me on everything and was easy to communicate with. He also shared great pictures from each visit! I came home to two happy cats.”

“Amber did a drop-in visit with me and did a good job with short notice because I needed to work late. She did a report card and sent a picture and did a good job with Bailey.”

“Tally was wonderful with my last-minute request to look in on my dog and take her for a walk when I needed to be away for most of the day and night. She took good care of my dog and took care to secure the house. I happily recommend Tally as a reliable pet care professional and I will use her services in the future if she is available.”

“Virginia did a wonderful job keeping Hugo fed and happy while his family was gone for a few days. She came 3x’s a day and was on time. She left great pictures of what Hugo did during the drop-ins and walks It was helpful to get these updates and we were reassured that Hugo was happy and well taken care of. I would recommend Virginia - your pet is in good hands with her.”

“Victoria was such a pleasure! We communicated. It was really a last-minute drop in request for our three Dalmatians. We did a meet and greet and the three dogs immediately took a liking to Victoria, and they are very picky and a lot to handle!! Victoria showed up on time fed our three dogs took them potty and spent some time and sent pictures after! She did an amazing job is a great person and we would definitely book her again and highly recommend!”

“Ashley is AWESOME. We’ve trusted her with our kitties a few times. One of our cats is diabetic and requires insulin shots - Ashley is so knowledgeable, and we feel so comfortable leaving our kitties in her care. We’re so fortunate to have her support.”


About: I grew up with two dogs and my parents currently own a cat, I’ve always loved animals since I was a child. My favorite things was learning training for puppies and staying consistent as they grow, and learning how to take care of dogs when they get older and making sure they have comfortable oldie years. I work Tuesday-Saturday until 2:30 and am off Sundays and Mondays. I can fit pet care in the evenings those days and any other time on Sundays and Mondays! I always make sure I know their routine, favorite activities and foods, any training specifics families have, and that they are always in the best care.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have over 9 years of experience training service dogs of all ages. Through my training experience, I have worked with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, helping them build confidence, learn new skills, and receive the care they need. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with a wide variety of dogs and my ability to adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs. I have also cared for my own foster dog, which taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of creating a safe and loving environment for every animal. I am comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and happy while you're away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, exercise, medication, or simply lots of love and companionship, I am committed to providing the highest quality care. I pride myself on being warm, friendly, dependable, and attentive. When your pet is with me, they will be treated like family and receive plenty of affection, enrichment, and personalized care. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and stress-free. 🐾 I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to play with pups! I’m super flexible and can fit in almost anything in my schedule! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a spacious home with a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get plenty of exercise. I also have an 8-month-old service dog in training who is extremely friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys being around other dogs. With over 9 years of experience training service dogs, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing attentive care. I carefully supervise all interactions between pets and make sure each dog feels comfortable in their environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication administration, and any special requests. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners while providing regular updates and communication throughout their stay.
“Kathleen is the greatest not only does our cat completely love her but we do too ❤️this summer has been full of the unexpected for our family. I’m very thankful for Kathleen’s patience and willingness to adjust to all the changes,”

“Sahba is great! She really cares for my cats and makes an effort to pet and play with my shy cat who’s always hiding, first person ever to actually try! She’s very sweet with them and gives them real quality time and love. I would not trust my cats to anyone else!”

“Natalie did some drop in visits on my dog this past weekend. She was awesome and stayed in contact with me the whole time and sent pics of him at the park. Will use her to take care of my pup again! Thank you!”

“She had amazing customer service! Unfortunately my pupper had burned his paws so I was very nervous with leaving him with a sitter but she took amazing care of him, kept me up to date about everything. Xander wasn’t really able to walk when she picked him up and by the time he came back he was running and playing. I really appreciated her. She is a true animal lover and I was very lucky to find her. I definitely will be using her again :)”

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.
