“Ashley was amazing… from our first conversation onward. Super responsive. Clearly loves animals and is amazing with them. She watched our two cats (one super friendly but needs meds 2x daily) and one who takes A LOT of patience but is friendly in his own weird way. Would recommend Ashley for all your pet sitting needs… we definitely hope to book her again for our next trip.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and was lucky enough to grow up surrounded by pets! Unfortunately, my son is allergic to pet dander, so having furry friends of our own isn’t an option right now. That’s where your kitty comes in! 🐱💕 I’d love the opportunity to live vicariously through your fur babies, giving them all the love, attention, and care I would give my own. Whether it’s feeding time, playtime, or just keeping your kitty company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I work full-time during the week, but my evenings and weekends are perfect for spending quality time with your furry family members! 🐱💕 I’m available for cat drop-in visits after 5:30 PM on weekdays and have more flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays. Whether your kitty needs dinner, playtime, or just a little extra love and attention, I’d be happy to help! Your kitty’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities! 🐾💕 I’ll always treat your home with respect and follow your care instructions carefully. During each visit, I’ll make sure your kitty has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of love and attention at their own comfort level. I’ll also send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in caring hands!
“Booked Lilla for cat care while I was away for the week and she went above and beyond to give my kitty the special attention he needed. She also provided detailed reports during her visits so I knew he was doing well!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Nicole! She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and caring throughout the entire time she looked after my cats. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their well-being and treated them with so much compassion and patience. Knowing they were in such caring hands gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind. I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether they’re energetic puppies or gentle seniors. I have experience with basic training for young pets, helping reinforce good habits, and I’m patient and compassionate with older animals who may need extra support or mobility assistance. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while giving owners peace of mind. I can work part time and spend as much time as needed with each pet. I love taking care of animals. Pet care is a part of my daily routine I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to accommodate different needs. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment. I follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks and any specific instructions. I also keep the home tidy, provide updates (Pictures), and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. At the end of the day I want each pet that I meet to have a loving care experience and feel relaxed and well cared for at all times.
“Carinna was amazing! She was very reliable and communicative. She went above and beyond as a caregiver for our 20+ year old cat, including delivering treats when he couldn't be bothered to use the stairs. Her time here really made for a worry-free vacation, I would definitely recommend her!”
“Absolutely excellent care giver to my kitties. She was able to take my request for visits short notice and went above and beyond caring for my pets. Would 100% request Charlotte again!”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have been around animals for most of my life. I grew up with a family dog and helped with feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I've also cared for my boyfriend's cat, including feeding, providing companionship, and maintaining the litter box. In addition, my dad has two dogs that I see regularly, giving me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I would give my own. 🐾💕 I work full-time Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM, which allows me to provide care before and after work, as well as on weekends. My schedule is consistent and predictable, making it easy to plan visits, walks, and check-ins. I'm available for evening care and weekend bookings, and I'm committed to ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's routine and will do my best to accommodate their individual needs. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away. 🐾💕
“Lolah loves Ademide, and that says a lot since my cat does not warm up to any sitter or guest. Pet owners, rest assured that Ademide will respect your home and be your pet’s best friend! Book Ademide with confidence!”
“Baylin was great, Rolo is a very anxious and took some time to warm up to Baylin, Baylinn was calm and patient and Rolo eventually warmed up to him and the drop in went well, Roscoe loved Baylin and was happy to be pet the whole time, we will definitely be using Baylin again.”
“Clarence has been extremely accommodating - my schedule changes drastically last minute, he was able to care for Cici at different times, with little notice. I Highly recommend him to care for your pet.”
“Obuchi provided excellent care for our cat while we were away. Our normally timid kitty seemed to be very drawn to her. Obuchi went above and beyond to make Ginger feel safe and us to feel secure. I would highly recommend her and would book with her in the future.”
About: Just like cats, I’ve had several dogs, big or small. I’ve helped at my local shelter, feeding the dogs their medication, and spending long hours understanding them. I’m currently unemployed, I’ll have all day to tend to your pups/kitties! I’m currently studying virtually, so I can always prioritize them above all. I have a large yard and several parks in my vicinity/nature trail. I have a 2500 sq ft floor, meaning I have plenty of room for a fuzzy friend.
“Landy was fantastic! She is very attentive and communicative, giving us detailed daily reports and lots of pics, which gained our trust knowing our cat was in great care. We definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs, and we look forward to booking her in the future to take care of ours.”
About: Hi! I’m Bella Mason! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, grew up surrounded by animals, and even started my own pet-sitting business back home, which did really well! I’ve always had a huge love for animals and strive to be a reliable sitter who makes every pet feel like family. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies and just want someone you can trust to take the best care of them! I have experience with all types of animals, from dogs + cats, to goats, chickens, and hedgehogs. I am a college student at the University of Maryland. I would prefer not to schedule anything on Wednesdays, because that is my late night of classes, but all other days I am able to drop in before and after my classes. I unfortunately cannot petsit in my apartment, but I love to ask my client's to provide me "instructions" with every detail possible. I like to do meet-in-greets with animals/clients to ensure it is a good fit. I will follow instructions closely and precisely to ensure their routine stays in-tack.
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and bring over five years of dedicated walking and sitting experience to the table. As a distance runner who loves training for races, I am a fantastic match for high-energy breeds that need to burn off steam with long, active routes. I am highly reliable, communicative, and dedicated to keeping your pup safe, exercised, and happy! I work a hybrid 9-5 job, but I am remote on Mondays and Fridays, and my hours are very flexible, so most days I don't leave for the office until 9:30 or I come home early around 3:30! I love taking my dogs out on walks in the morning when it is nice and cool outside to avoid the heat, as well as letting them out to play with me in the backyard so that they can stretch their legs. I love to give them extra pets and treats as a small reward for their physical activities.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends & family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pet. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 5. I have a fenced yard with my adorable dog Princess to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Thx
About: My name is Tiana Palmer. Born & raised in Baltimore, MD by way of Dallas, TX. I travel back and forth from both areas for work and open to welcoming new clients as the fall/winter season is approaching. I have always had a passion for taking care of animals, especially canines. I have plenty of clients who can vouch that at all times their dog, cat, even a turtle can be trusted in my hands. With my personable spirit and love for the animals I have been recognized by my peers and colleagues on numerous occasions about my enthusiasm and passion for care taking. My availability is pretty open. I’m usually free for walks in the morning til the evening. If it’s overnights I will follow the client’s schedule. I have extensive experience in animal welfare, animal behavior and language. Also, prompt if meds are needed for pet. The schedule such as feedings, walks, baths and etc. that the client has for their animal it will be as followed.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Riverdale Park
Abigail is hands down the best pet-sitter that we've ever had. We have three cats, two of which I'd describe as being skittish (though non-harmful). By day two, both of those cats were comfortable with Abby! Typically, I tell pet-sitters that those cats may hide the entire time, but that was not the case this time--both cats seemed to hang around her, actively and happily anticipating her visit. When we arrived home, my cats were none the wiser of and clearly had not experienced any anxiety in our absence. It is an immense relief to experience that as a pet-owner and can say that I will continue to book Abby as long as she's available!
Emma was punctual, communicative, and wonderful with my three cats. She cleaned the litter and ensured that everything was completed according to the instructions I gave her. My cats were all happy to get their treats and sat on her lap while she was there. I would not hesitate to use her services again!
We had a great experience with Jane! She was reliable, attentive, and took wonderful care of our Buddy cat. I especially appreciated that she made sure she actually saw our cat before leaving each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cared about making sure everything was okay. We felt very comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
I had a wonderful experience with Nicole! She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and caring throughout the entire time she looked after my cats. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their well-being and treated them with so much compassion and patience. Knowing they were in such caring hands gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!
Carinna was amazing! She was very reliable and communicative. She went above and beyond as a caregiver for our 20+ year old cat, including delivering treats when he couldn't be bothered to use the stairs. Her time here really made for a worry-free vacation, I would definitely recommend her!
Bryanna was wonderful with our furry crew! She took such great care of everyone and even our shyest kitties opened up to her! I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for conscientious and loving care for your pets. She was timely and communicated well with us the entire time.
Iris is an excellent cat sitter. We have a timid cat, who waited at the door for her visits. Our cat was eager to continue her routine of being fed and hanging out playing with a laser. Iris kept her cat bowls clean and the cat litter box was kept in good order. We highly recommend her for cat care and I’m sure her dog care is equally good.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
