“Juliana responded promptly to my request and was able to feed my cats within just 2 hours of my sitter having an emergency. Complete with pictures of my babies and able to meet the needs of all three of my cats, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Nothing is more valuable than peace of mind and she provided that!”


“Kerry did an amazing job caring for my girls. From the pictures and updates she sent, I could tell they felt comfortable and trusted her. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and support she provided while I was out of town. As a first-time mom navigating postpartum, being away from them was difficult, and Kerry went above and beyond to reassure me. Whenever I felt nervous or anxious, she made sure I knew they were doing well. She even sent me a video of my dog when I shared concerns that she might be missing me, which meant so much. Kerry made me feel completely comfortable and confident in her ability to care for my girls. She also captured some amazing group pictures that I will cherish. I highly recommend booking with her she is thoughtful, caring, and truly wonderful at what she does.”


“Needed a cat sitter while I was away getting married and on honeymoon and Mary was great helping us keeping cats hydrated with clean litter. It was a nice surprise to find a flower arrangement from her once I came back home! 😁”


“Briony was amazing with Cooper and he really enjoyed his time with her! It was my first time leaving him with a new person. She was very patient, communicative, supportive while I was away. She really went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable with the care she provided. Cooper had several hot spots that were in different phases of healing. She was very attentive to his care and made sure he got what he needed during every visit. Furthermore, after a power outage, my fridge had a leak. She communicated that to me asap and did what she could to ensure there was no additional damage. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!”

“Emily was absolutely AMAZING!! I had a last minute emergency booking. She was responsive, so polite, understanding and just a joy to work with. She put me at ease during a stressful. Will definitely book again!”

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and chickens. While I'm comfortable with animals of all sizes, I'm most experienced with large dogs, and have no problem managing pups who weigh well over a hundred pounds. I also have experience training puppies, and am currently learning the basics of canine massage. Around me, your fur baby will always be happy, well-loved, and protected! I'm currently unemployed outside of pet-sitting and dog walking, so my schedule is generally pretty open. Most of my availability is in the morning and early afternoon, but I'm quite flexible as it relates to scheduling. Please let me know if you require my services outside of my typical hours, and I'll be happy to try and accommodate you! When taking clients on walks, I'm careful to ensure their safety and comfort. I often bring booties with me to protect their feet on hot days, and make sure I'm stocked up on water and pet parent-compliant treats before embarking on walks. While walking, I let dogs sniff around as much as they like, and provide a gentle guiding hand and a vigilant eye to protect them from harm. Before I leave, I check to make sure all entrances are locked in order to maintain the safety of my clients and their home.
About: I’ve always been happiest around animals. Between my background in Veterinary Technology, experience in dog grooming, volunteering at my local animal shelter, and having pets my whole life, I’ve had the opportunity to work with all kinds of personalities. I love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and understood. Animals have always been a big part of my life. Pet care naturally fits into my routine through my experience caring for my own pets, volunteering at an animal shelter, and my animal care background. I enjoy providing reliable attention, companionship, and care for pets. I focus on making each pet feel comfortable by following their normal routine and paying attention to their individual personality and needs. I have experience with a variety of animals through my personal pets, shelter volunteering, grooming training, and animal care education. I prioritize safety, patience, communication with owners, and providing a positive experience while they’re away.
About: I've been volunteering at an animal refuge for almost a year as a dog walker. I currently own cats, dogs, and ferrets; I always make sure to keep up with vet visits to make sure they are healthy and safe. Striving for a career in veterinary! Constantly learning and researching to care for animals to the best of my ability. I will ensure to care for your fur babies as if they were my own! I’m currently on summer break from college and working part time. Im available most week day and Saturday afternoons and evenings and any time on Sunday’s! I have different pets such as; dogs, cats and ferrets, all friendly who would love to keep your fur babies company. I will ensure your pup is comfortable, my ferrets usually reside in my room so no need to worry about them if it's a problem!
About: I’ve owned 2 dogs, 2 cats, a bird! Very skilled in providing care to sickly or elderly pets. I have experience administering pills, chemotherapy, and injections to animals with special needs. I’m saving up to go to law school, so I have ample time on my hands. I can stay days, nights, do daily drop ins. I can fit your pets’ needs. I have a fenced in backyard with lots of space. I have 2 cats that are very friendly. My neighborhood is great for walking dogs and getting outside time.
About: I’ve always loved and have always had animals my whole life. I just love animals and nature overall and most animals love me right back! :) I grew up with my first dog from age 1-5 then I’ve had a bunch of aquatic animals, chickens, bunnies, ducks, turtles, even more dogs and recently had my first cat! I’ve taken care of friends and family pets as well and we always have a great time. I recently moved from Hawaii to TN and I’d love to care for someone else’s fur baby in the meantime. I now have a pet cat that I adopted in Hawaii🥰 He stays in my room for the most part because he still doesn’t rest like venturing around the rest of the house, so he won’t be in the way if I have other animals over. I currently work from home and can give all my time to pet care if need be. I’m used to taking care of animals of all ages and different breeds, so I can cater to pretty much whatever your fur baby will need. ***HAS MILITARY BASE ACCESS*** I live in a townhouse where there’s lots of space for walks & exploring. I have a small fenced in patio that they can play in or we can go for a walk around the neighborhood. There’s a really big open area that I love walking around where no one else really goes so it would be nice for animals to walk around there. Other than that your baby will be inside of the house, there’s a bunch of space so they can pretty much go wherever until it’s time for a walk. I also have space for crates if need be.

I love love love animals of all kinds and I’m definitely right in the middle of the dog-person/cat-person debate. I took in all of my pets when they were under 1 year old so I have lots of knowledge in puppy and kitten care. One of my dogs also has various health issues including blindness and need frequent medication, so I have experience in caring for dogs with special needs as well. I’m currently a full-time student but I will still have plenty of time to walk and care for your animals! I am available for all services any day of the week! My passion for animals allows me to be enthusiastically loving to any animal I meet!

I provide a safe and living home for your dog( if you decide to go the boarding option)! I promise to you owners that your dogs will be well taking care of and fed and walked everyday! I will be on time to pick them up and provide the care which is asked and needed from me!

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I’ve cared for my own dogs, fish, and other pets, and I understand how important it is to treat every animal with patience, love, and attention. With my background as a teacher, substitute teacher, and babysitter, I’m experienced in being responsible and caring for different needs. I’d love the opportunity to provide dependable, loving care for your pets and can’t wait to meet you and your animal companions!

About: Hello, my name is Elise! Both my grandmother and my mom have been part of the dog sitting business for as long as I can remember. We also have pets of our own, so I have been around animals all of my life. It has genuinely become a passion of mine as I began to help my family from an early age with every pup that has entered into our care, up until now as an adult. This, in turn, came with learning about different dog breeds, their behavior, and body language. With all of that in mind, I can guarantee you that your pet will be in safe hands and well taken care of. You will also receive photos of every interaction so you can see how happy your fur baby is. I am currently working part-time. Thankfully, I have a steady schedule that will allow me to provide time to meet you and your fur baby. I have a lot of backyard space that pets enjoy. My family and I also spend a lot of time outside in our garden, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time. As far as going to a client's home, I'd make sure ask about rover notes and texts regarding instructions while following up with pictures of their pup along with pictures of the finished tasks.

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.
