About: I am a proud dog mom myself. And I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
“David took amazing care of our pup. He was kind and gentle with ducky and send tons of photos. He checked in frequently and followed verbal instructions very well despite my mistake of forgetting to leave written instructions. Will be our go to when we need a sitter. Thanks David!”
About: I've had cats and dogs all of my life. I love basically every animal I meet. I've been pet sitting for others since I was around 10. I'm experienced in walking dogs of all sizes. Obviously giving an animal meds is not the most fun job (especially with cats), but I have experience with that as well if it's needed. I do work full time, but I'm always available after 5pm during the week and all day on weekends. If needed I could potentially schedule a drop in early in the morning before work as well. The care very much depends on your pet of course. If you have an animal that loves attention and companionship, I'd love to spend time playing with them or just providing company. There's a misconception that all cats are aloof, but I tend to find the opposite. Mine are very clingly and want all the attention and playtime, haha. And most dogs I've met are the same. On the other hand if your pet is not a people person, I can get in and out quickly, and just provide the needed services.
“Keilah is a great pet sitter! I have an extremely shy and anxious cat and somehow she got him to come out and play a little and even got a photo of him giving her a kiss! I was shocked! I recommend her for any pet needs and will absolutely be going back to her.”
About: Animals have been part of my life since day one. I grew up with dogs and cats of all personalities! I currently share my home with Kisses, my calico, and Teddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer — one of the highest-energy breeds out there — so if your dog goes a mile a minute, I'm more than ready for it!! Over the years I've dog sat for all sizes and breeds — from tiny lap dogs to large, boisterous pups — and I treat every single one like they're my own. Your pet will be loved, played with, and completely spoiled. My home has a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, zoom, and explore that's perfect for dogs who need to burn off some energy. I'm also comfortable administering medication, so pets with special health needs are absolutely welcome. Your baby will get the same attentive care at my place that they get at home. Whether your pet needs a calm, cozy stay or a high-energy playmate, I've got them covered. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work remotely with a very flexible schedule, which means pet care is never an afterthought. It's woven into my whole day. I'm home the majority of the week, and on the rare occasion I do step out, I'm never gone for more than 3 hours. Your pet will always have someone present, attentive, and ready to play, cuddle, or just keep them company. No long stretches alone, ever. My home is set up thoughtfully for both dogs and cats. The layout is split-level, with cats having full run of the upstairs and dogs enjoying the main floor plus access to the fully fenced backyard — plenty of space to play, explore, and burn energy safely. The two never have to share space unless everyone is comfortable. I do have a resident calico and a German Shorthaired Pointer, both of whom are friendly and social, so I do ask that visiting pets are comfortable around other animals of their kind. I always offer a free meet-and-greet before booking so we can make sure everyone — pets and people — feels good about the stay before any commitment is made. My home is puppy-proofed and high-energy-dog-ready, and I have 24/7 SimpliSafe security monitoring for added peace of mind. You can expect regular photos and updates throughout every stay because you shouldn't have to wonder how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions exactly. Your routines, your rules — meal times, crate preferences, favorite toys, walking routes — I stick to all of it. I respect your home as if it were my own, always clean up after your dog outside, and scoop litter boxes daily. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are the whole point.
“Breanna was wonderful with our cats while we were away on vacation! She came in for daily drops ins to feed them, scoop litter, and play with them. She sent detailed updates and high quality pictures every day that we looked forward to seeing. I felt really safe leaving our cats and home in her care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone. In addition to taking great care of the cats she brought in mail/packages and took out the garbage. She also vacuumed up their litter room without me having to ask. There’s nothing better than coming home from vacation to a clean house and happy kitties. Thank you Bre!!!”
“I don’t think there are enough words to do justice for the amount of appreciation I have for Erin. Erin not only took this booking the day before I needed her due to a last minute cancel by another rover user, she also extended the time we needed her for due to medical emergencies. She went over and beyond for our dogs, especially considering she had to keep them separate the entire time and one of the dogs is not potty trained yet. She even washed the rags we provided her to be able to clean the puppies cage when she went to the bathroom! I think it goes without saying that Erin is an extremely reliable dog sitter, our dogs were very happy when we got home and appear to be kept for very well. She sent us a lot of photos and videos which our son looked forward to seeing everyday, and she kept us up to date on how the dogs were doing! I would highly recommend Erin as a dog sitter, you can tell she really loves animals!”
“Tony is friendly, professional, and a very compassionate cat sitter. My kitty can be a handful and Tony was perfect for the task. I would recommend him to anyone. I couldn't be happier!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with my cat! She did drop-ins visits with her and I really appreciated her communication and sending pictures. This is my first time hiring a pet sitter (other than friends), so I really appreciated her professionalism and thoughtful care of my cat, especially over the holiday. Would 100% recommend!”
“Clareese was so kind and attentive. She took great care of my cat and also kept me informed the whole time I was away. I was not worried at all. She was a perfect fit for our needs, and I definitely will be rebooking her!”
“We loved working with Meghan! We have a very large, very anxious and moody dog and another very high energy independent pup--they are NOT an easy pair to care for. Meghan did a meet and greet and she had both of them following her around and listening to her every command. We felt so much relief knowing she was taking good care of our babies, she sent updates, photos and video to document her stay. We will definitely ask her back!”
“I booked Divya to check in on my cat daily for a week while I was on vacation. She was very dependable and really went the extra mile in making sure Kyle was happy and looked after. I'd absolutely work with her again!”
“Tracie helped with my two dogs & two cats for the second time and did a great job again! She is very dependable and communicative and my pets seem to love her. She makes traveling worry-free :).”
“Haley was such an amazing find! She treated our cat like she was her own. We appreciated the ongoing communication and pictures throughout our time away. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to care for our cat and we would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”
“Both Savannah and Silas were awesome! I knew from when we met them, they were going to be a perfect match and they in fact were. My dogs took to them both very well, and I felt very comfortable while I was out of the country, knowing that my dogs were in loving and responsible hands . Thank you both :)!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rankin
Rose was amazing again, very pleased with her care! She even cheerfully brought packages inside that were delivered during by my absence, I love her diligence and care with my home and kitties. Highy recommend and I will continue to use her, when able, in the future! Thanks, Rose!
Savannah did an excellent job caring for my senior cat, Phoebe, who has some special medical needs including a daily oral pill. I’m always nervous leaving Phoebe alone overnight, but Savannah’s prompt and thorough communication helped put my mind at ease. She gave her lots of care and attention during her visits with Phoebe and took great care of my home as well. I will definitely rebook with Savannah if we need a sitter in the future!
There are no words for how wonderful Breanna has been over the past few years with my high maintenance cat. I am actually reluctant to relocate for work because I know I'll never find a more kind and patient Mo-Whisperer (and a genuinely - like unnecessarily 😂 - talented photographer, which is a lovely bonus)
Claire is super caring & efficient. My one cat, Moe, is usually a super shy dude but he velcroed onto Claire instantly. She sent photo updates from every visit & gave all my babies love while I was gone. I will definitely be booking with her again, great experience!

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.

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.
