“Jennifer is always great when she visits, she takes pics of our two cats and gives them a lot of love and pays attention to their specific diet. We even thought we left a candle on ( we didn’t ) and Jennifer was nice enough to come back to check on it. :)”
“Danielle was incredible. It was our first time using Rover when we went away for a few weeks. We were too scared to board her, and heard about this app. Danielle responded right away to our request and made a flexible schedule to meet and greet our cat. Our cat is nice but I little cautious. She walked right up to Danielle with trust. Danielle sent us photos every day and even alerted us when she thought our cat wasn't feeling well. We came home to a well-fed, very lovie, happy cat. I highly recommend her and will definitely request her services again.”
About: I am a certified veterinary assistant with 5 years of experience and schooling with all types of animals. I currently work in an animal hospital full time while doing pre- requisites for eventually vet school in the future. Right now I pet sit for close friends and family but I’m looking to extend love to even more animals! I work Monday through Thursday with an hour break in the middle of the day with an occasional Saturday morning switch instead of one other day during the week. I get my schedule monthly so it’s easy for me to plan accordingly! I have a dachshund and anyone that knows me knows she is my prized possession that I love so much! I truly care for pets outside of my job, it brings me joy to help out others!
“Teresa was great. Even when the plow didn’t show up, she trudged through the snow and ice to make sure our cat and bunnies were cared for. She was on time and made sure to send daily updates and photos. She also moved our heavy Xmas packages out of the snow and into the garage, and she even tidied up inside a bit. Above and beyond!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have experience caring for dogs through my own family, family friends, and my friends’ pets. While I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience yet, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine and provide any extra care they may need, including giving medication when necessary. I love going on walks, so I’d be excited to bring your pup along for plenty of exercise and fresh air! I’m also an aquarist and care for marine life, which has taught me to be responsible, observant, and attentive to animals’ individual needs. I truly love animals of all kinds and would treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I have a part-time work schedule that gives me plenty of availability to care for pets throughout the week. I’m able to make time for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and simply keeping your pet company. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and make sure they’re getting the care and attention they’re used to while you’re away. I also enjoy being active, so getting out for a walk is something I genuinely look forward to! I care for every pet as if they were my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and any routines or preferences your pet has. I have a fenced-in backyard that can be a great option for pets who may not be comfortable going on walks or who just enjoy some extra outdoor time. I do live with other animals, but I would always keep your pet separated at first and only allow introductions if it’s appropriate and everyone is comfortable. My priority is making sure your pet has a calm, safe environment and receives the individual attention they need.
“Natalie has been absolutely fantastic with my four dogs. She handles them all with no problem at all. She is responsible and flexible with schedule changes and that has been a big help as my work schedule does fluctuate. The dogs just love her and we feel very fortunate to have her as our daily pet sitter. I would strongly recommend Natalie if you are looking for peace of mind when it comes to having someone trustworthy to care for your pets.”
“Sydney took fabulous care of my girl Louis while I was out of town. She gave regular updates and sent lots of pics, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. 10/10 would recommend/rebook”
About: I’m an athletic animal enthusiast with a lifelong love for dogs. I have 3 furry friends of my own, a dog and two cats, so I understand the joy and responsibility of caring for pets. I enjoy long walks, playtime, and learning each pet’s unique personality. I especially love training and engaging with dogs, whether they’re playful puppies or seniors, making sure every animal feels happy and safe. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I enjoy starting my day with walks, playtime, and feeding, and I can adjust my schedule to provide consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the week. I’m flexible with morning, afternoon, or evening visits and can accommodate special needs or longer care sessions when needed. I create a safe, loving environment for every pet, whether in my home or yours. I supervise all interactions, maintain clean spaces, and follow any specific instructions regarding food, medications, or routines. I build trust gradually by learning each pet’s personality, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for, and I communicate regularly with owners to keep them informed and confident in my care.
“Thank you so much Eva. Our kitties seemed to truly love you and normally they are not the easiest to bond with. The pictures we received during your drops truly showed how much they loved having you there. thank you again so much and i will recommend you to anyone in the area looking for cat care!”
“Lindsay was excellent! She is very reliable, trustworthy and great with animals. She left my place tidy and she made me feel comfortable that my cats were safe so I could relax and enjoy my trip. I highly recommend her! Will be using her again!”
About: I grew up in PA out in the country. My family cared for and raised many different kinds of dogs. We had Yorkshire Terriers, German Shorthair Pointers, and Beagles. We always had dogs and they were our closest loyal companions. It would be great to get to care for your dog. I am loving, energetic, punctual and nurturing. I am available evenings and overnight. I can also come by to take them for a walk, feed them, and let them out to go to the bathroom. Every dog is special in their own way and deserves to be taken care of! I will have the utmost respect for your pet and your property. My goal is to care for your pet the way you would.
“James was absolutely the best! He responded quickly, was extremely friendly and accommodating. My pup is a little high maintenance and my needs a little unique, but he was able to help me out in what was a pretty “out of the box” situation. His assistance was essential in providing necessary care for my boy. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for pet care in the area and truly thank him for his help!”

About: I grew up as an animal girl, we always had at least one dog at a time. I watched our neighbors dogs and farm animals growing up My work days are short and my schedule is flexible. Dogs are free to roam when I’m gone if trained or I’m happy to crate them if needed. Let me know where they sleep and I’m happy to arrange.

Nycol took care of my cats for two weeks over the holidays, and it was such a relief knowing they were in great hands. She checked in consistently, made sure they got their meds, and truly cared for them. I was completely worry-free and will always trust her with my babies!

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.
