“Once again, Taylor took such good care of my cat! She is always responsive and goes the extra mile to make sure my cat's needs are met and that he gets lots of attention. I felt totally at ease knowing my cat was in good hands while I was away!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Lauran made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond when any issues came up. I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have grown up around animals and have experience with elderly dogs and very anxious cats specifically. My two childhood puppies grew up and I helped assist with their needs, such as medicine and helping them walk around with patience. I also understand what it’s like to have a very anxious cat— mine is too. I have one cat, a fish, and a snail of my own now! I’m currently building my health coaching clientele working from home. I take frequent breaks to walk at the park and often spend the majority of the day working on various tasks at home. I’m very flexible with my schedule right now! Since I have an anxious and non-sociable cat of my own at home I will be more open to visits such as drop-in’s and taking fur babies out on walks at the park right now!
“Bayley did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She followed all the instructions on our guide, sent proof-of-life pictures on every drop-in, and consistently communicated about the timing of her visits. It was such a relief to know our fur babies were in good hands so we could enjoy our trip :)”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life from frenchies to shelties. I’ve worked in a dog store for over a year. Let me give you peace of mind while you’re away. On a weekly basis I have a flexible schedule that will allow for me drop by to check in and love on your babies. I work from home on most Wednesdays which allows me easy access to swing by. I will always make sure to give your pet lots of love and attention just like I would my own. Making sure to go the extra mile to let you know that I’m there to care in the ways you need!
About: What started off as a favor for a friend turned into a genuine love for all pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the guilt and sadness that comes with leaving your fur baby with a stranger, so it is my mission to make sure that the owner as well as the pet feel comfortable enough to put their trust in me. I am a student with a part time job. I have available time for any animal with any need. Evenings or even night walks are perfect. Boundaries are important, not only for the owner before the pet as well. That is always my top priority. As well as treating a pet as my own.
About: Had pets of my own and helped pet-sit for others since I was in middle school. I’ve always had a huge spot in my heart for all sorts of animals. I would say I’m good at walking bigger dogs due to daily strength training and owning a large dog of my own. I make my own schedule for my sales job, therefore I can work things out to be able to take proper care of your fur baby! I have a dog and cat at my apartment, and both are friendly with other animals. Can easily crate my animals or yours depending on your wants. Can either come to your place or bring your pets to mine. However, I don’t have a fenced in yard and have to walk fur babies on a leash if coming to my place.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have been caring for the animals of friends and family for many years. I have experience caring for puppies and older dogs. I understand how hard it is to leave the furry member of the family to someone else’s care so I am dedicated to treating them as my own. I am currently a PhD student so I have many flexible hours throughout the day. With access to a car, I can reliably drop in and walk animals several times a day if needed. I can come to the home to care for and walk pets as needed. I know how to walk dogs of many sizes safely and have even leash trained my cat. Pets have different care needs and I am well equipped to adapt to each pet.
“Laila is fantastic, and I highly recommend you book her. She came to meet my cat before hand and my boy was well taken care of. She even made friends with him which I thought was impossible since he does not like new people! Definitely book her!”
“Jian looked after my cats for two weeks when I was on vacation. She did absolutely amazing job and my cats loved her so much. She communicated very promptly, super gentle to my babies and maintained everything exactly as I expected. She also sent me pictures and videos every visits. Highly recommended.”
“Oliva is a dog whisper, and a true animal lover. She is gentle and patient with your animal, has alot of knowledge about different dog behaviors and great instincts on modifications if needed. Olivia is very dependable and a great communication. She is to talk to if your schedule changes or your pets needs change. She goes above and beyond and really forms an instant connection withe your dog/ cat. My dogs knew when it was time for her to come take them for there walks, they would be waiting by the front door for her like clock work. My two dogs bonded with her on the first day and it really warmed my heart. Olivia is honest, caring, and a true angel .I will definitely be recommending her to others and be using her again.”
About: I have over 15 years experience providing pet care for family, friends, neighbors, and clients. Which includes, feeding, walking, providing meds, and giving them love. I work full time on M-F from 8:30-5:00, so I can do drop-ins or stay overnight at your home. I am happy to provide references upon request. I’m currently working full time from 8:30-5:00 on M-F, so I can do drop-ins before and after work or I can spend the night at your home during the week or on the weekends. I am happy to provide pet care services in your home such as feeding, walking, providing meds, changing litter boxes for cats, or cleaning up after dogs, and showing them love.
About: I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone new. I’ve lived all across the country, and every time we moved, one of my biggest worries was finding someone I truly trusted with my dogs. That experience is a big part of why I want to provide the same kind of care and reassurance I’ve always looked for in a sitter. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have three dogs and two cats of my own, including a rescue pup so I totally get having a dog with some special quirks. I also spend time taking dogs from Louisville Metro Animal Services (LMAS) out on field trips, giving them a chance to get out of the shelter, explore, play, and get some much-deserved one-on-one attention. I have a soft spot for the pets who need a little extra patience. One of my dogs is extremely anxious and terrified of thunderstorms, so I understand that not every dog immediately warms up to a new person — and that’s okay! I’m happy to take things at their pace and learn what makes them feel comfortable and safe. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, as well as cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines. My experiences as a pediatric ICU nurse has taught me to be attentive to small changes, stay clam under pressure, follow detailed care instructions, and understand just how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for a member of your family. My dogs can be pretty anxious, so leaving them with a stranger has never been easy for me. I’m the pet parent who wants lots of updates and probably way too many pictures while I’m gone! When your pets are with me, expect plenty of photos and updates. I know how reassuring it is to see your dog happily lounging on the couch, enjoying their walk, or just being their goofy self while you’re away. I want you to enjoy your time away without wondering how things are going back home. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your dog wants long walks, someone to throw their toy 100 times, or spend the evening curled up next to me, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I want you to be able to leave home knowing your pets are with someone who understands how much they mean to you - because I know exactly how that feels. I work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule that still leaves plenty of room for pet care! I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays, which gives me even more flexibility for drop-ins, walks, and spending some extra time with your pets on those days. I’m also an early riser, so morning visits are no problem for me — I’m happy to start my day with a walk, breakfast, litter box cleanup, or some quality time with your pet before heading to work. I know how important reliable scheduling is when someone is depending on you to care for their pets, so I’ll keep my Rover calendar updated to clearly reflect my availability. If I accept a booking, you can feel confident that I’ve made sure I have the time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve — along with plenty of photo updates along the way! Your pet’s safety and your trust are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely and respect your home as if it were my own. Before walks, I’ll make sure collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I’ll never let a dog off leash unless specifically instructed in a safe, designated area. During drop-ins, I’ll be mindful of doors, gates, medications, food, and anything else that could pose a safety risk. I’ll also pay attention to your pet’s behavior and never force interaction if they seem nervous or uncomfortable. As a pediatric ICU nurse, safety, attention to detail, and noticing when something seems “off” are second nature to me. I’ll keep you updated during each visit and communicate right away if I notice anything concerning. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing both your pet and your home are being treated with care and respect while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from 10 pounds to 80 pounds. Family members have relied on me to bathe their furry babies, take them for walks, feed, and watch them over night. I would be honored to do the same for you! In currently working part time with shifts ranging from 5 to 8 hours so i’ll have plenty of time to make your pets feel loved! i am available weekdays and weekends. I do not have a fenced yard, but am a member to a dog park here in town. I have a border collie and two cats that don’t mind other animals.
About: Hello! I love looking after family and friend’s pets and would love the chance to do it more often. I’m responsible and caring and I will take very good care of your pets. Hi! I’m a flight attendant on reserve, which basically means I’m on call. So I’ll know a head of time the days I’m off for the following month. The days I’m call, I’ll usually be at home waiting around, so I’ll still be free to do pop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard for them to play in. I will walk them frequently. I will also make sure they are well taken care of and loved until they are back with you.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Richlawn
Michael looked after our dog and cats while we were out of town. He provided the best updates on how they were doing each visit, and sent plenty of photos and videos. They were happy and well looked after the whole time we were away, and we were so glad to have such reliable help!
Rhonda is an absolute gem! She followed our care instructions to a T, and every visit came with thoughtful updates and sweet little descriptions of what my baby girl was up to. The photos she sent were seriously amazing, I looked forward to every single one. It’s clear she genuinely loves the fur babies she cares for. I’d rebook with Rhonda in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation!
Isabella was so great with our Kitty! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures throughout our trip. She even made sure to provide detailed updates of Kitty's mood and behaviors during her visits. We will definitely be booking her again for future trips!
Rachael was very professional, communicative, and caring for our kitty cat, Remy, while we were on vacation. He was very happy with the care she provided, and he was well-fed and well-loved while we were gone. We will definitely request her services for our next trip!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
