“Mya was truly a blessing and the perfect kitty sitter! She was extremely attentive and loving to my two little spoiled cats. She was always on time and spent a lot of quality time with them. They were instantly in love with and felt super comfortable with her. I was away for work at my new job and wanted to fully committed without worrying. She sent many cute pictures and just went above and beyond. Hire her! But not when I need her 😅 (jk) you won’t regret it. ♥️”
About: I grew up in a neighborhood that had many dogs, and I would always go over to my neighbors’ houses to play with and take care of their fur babies.

“Larry took care of our cat while we are away for a vacation and we’re extremely happy with his care and visits! He isincredibly professional, kept all of his words and very communicative. Our cat enjoyed his time together with Larry. We will definitely rebook his service in the future.”
“First time using a pet sitting service for my cats. I found Marcela and read her reviews along with comparing her to other sitters I looked at online. She stood out for me and so glad I chose her to watch my sweet boys Lilo & Stitch. She did a great job while I was away from feeding them, cleaning up the litter box to even brushing their coat. Something that's not easy to do but my cats got comfortable with Marcela after the first day. She's thorough and does a good job. I'd hire her again.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every dog I meet. To me, dogs are never “just pets”, they’re family, and I know how much trust it takes to leave a family member in someone else’s care. My goal is always to make both you and your dog feel completely comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them through every stage, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle attention. I also have two years of professional dog walking experience, which has helped me become confident with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m very affectionate, dependable, and attentive, and I always take the time to understand what each dog needs to feel happy and secure. Whether that means going on long energetic walks, playing their favorite games, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them comfort and companionship, I’ll always care for them with kindness, patience, and love. I truly enjoy building a bond with every dog, and I treat them the same way I would want someone to treat my own. 🫶 Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I have open availability and can adjust my schedule as needed. I’m flexible during the week and weekends, so I’m able to take on walks, drop-ins, or sitting whenever I’m needed. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I follow all instructions carefully: feeding schedules, walk times, medications if needed, and any specific habits or preferences the pet has. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, whether that means playtime, long walks, or just being there with them so they don’t feel alone. I’m very clean and respectful of the home as well, so I always leave things the way I found them. Most importantly, I pay close attention to how each pet is feeling and adjust my care based on their personality, whether they need a lot of energy and stimulation or a calm, gentle presence.

“Lauryn is amazing! I just moved to the area and needed to take a trip I couldn't cancel and was in an absolute panic. My 16-year-old cat needs some medications and definitely a compassionate person, and I was so fortunate to find Lauryn. She was absolutely fantastic and very responsible. I'm also very iffy about letting strangers into my house but in this case I didn't need to worry about it at all because Lauryn left the place spotless. I would not hesitate to use her for pet care. I don't think you can find a better person!”

Rachel was such an amazing sitter!! Super experienced with clear and quick communication throughout our trip. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were comfortable and that their food bowls, water bowls, and litter area were cleaned every day. Highly recommend her 🙏
Maribel was so communicative - her daily report cards gave me piece of mind and she was very patient with my senior and separation-anxiety stressed kitty. It’s so clear she’s an animal lover, and as concerned about us feeling comfortable while we were away. Thank you so much!
Marlene was absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She took such wonderful care of my two cats while we were away, and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving hands. She followed every instruction perfectly, made sure my boys were well-fed, and, most importantly, gave them so much love, attention, and affection. She even stayed overnight one of the nights to ensure my senior cat, Mumu, received his medication on time, which meant so much to me. Caring for a pet with medical needs requires patience and dedication, and she handled everything flawlessly. It’s clear that Marlene genuinely loves animals and treats them like they’re her own. She went above and beyond, and I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, reliable, and attentive, Marlene is the person to call. I would trust her with my boys again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Marlene, for taking such incredible care of Mumu and Speedy!
Wen does such a good job with our cat Lani that we keep coming back to her again and again. We come home to a happy kitty every single time, and this time was no exception! We were in the Seattle area for 6 days and Wen kept us updated on how Lani was doing, which was such great peace of mind. Thanks Wen!
Luna was s great sitter for our 4 cats! She was so kind and they took to her right away. They are usually very shy with strangers but she won them over. I will be using her again on our next vacation. She was able to give them their insulin shots and we had no worries about our babies while we were away.
Alex was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Shakir. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and truly enjoys what she does. She was caring, attentive, reliable, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me great peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my home and my cat, and Shakir was happy and well cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I would gladly book with her again in the future.
Samantha is by far the most trustworthy, conscientious, caring cat sitter we have ever had! She provides fun and adorable updates at every visit, takes special care to follow and keep up with instructions, and is very attentive to detail and our cats’ individual personalities or needs. I would not hesitate to trust her with our pets ever, and I would recommend her to anyone in need of a caregiver for the kitties!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ridgefield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
