“Claudia is AMAZING—she is reliable, consistent, and such a pleasure to work with—she is very attentive to our dog’s needs and always goes above and beyond to ensure each visit goes well. It is such a relief to know our dog is well loved and cared for when we are away. Thanks Claudia!!!”
“Hope was amazing! She took great care of my dog and cat while we were on vacation. She stayed in communication if she had issues or questions. I have an anxious dog, and she took extra steps to make sure he would enjoy her visits. She always sent a few pics and an update on how the visit went. I highly recommend and will definitely use Hope again!”
“Daniella was amazing! She was super communicative, reliable, and clearly cared so much about my dog. I loved the updates and photos—it gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I got back. I already booked with her again and highly recommend her!”
About: I am a five star, exceptional pet sitter . I can send video and pictures every day that I have your pet. I have been a pet owner since I was a little girl. I’ve had several different kinds of dogs all small dogs and also I have cared for the elderly for years. I’m currently not working, I am a caregiver and I take care of an elderly person. I also took care of two little puppies. One is a Maltese and one is a Shih Tzu., I have an apartment, however I do have a small fenced in yard, I have a dog park also, and I have two small dogs that get along great with other animals and also children and also seniors. I have been a dog lover for years.
“Sarah is great! One of my cats doesn’t like anyone, and she loved her! Jude had a great time and we had no worries whether she would be taken care of or not! Highly recommend!”
“So happy we found Wendy to look after our two babies. She was fantastic with sharing updates after each visit, and loved that she shared photos. Decided to call her the cat whisperer especially with how she bonded and interacted with our little boy.”
About: I have had 3 dogs including my life and loved caring for them. Feeding them, playing with them, and taking them on walks! I had a senior dog of 10 years. He couldent walk for his last couple months so sometimes I would carry him small distances he was 90 pounds. I am available all day every day except for mondays from 5:30-9. And when I go on a trip. But I will let you know on the calendar. I only walk dogs and check on them in your house. I can do whatever you need! I can feed them, walk them, play with them, and give them medication.
“Lauryn was amazing with my cat, Pickles! She not only fed, watered, and scooped her litter but she made sure that Pickles had lots of love, playtime and attention. She also sent updates and pictures so I knew how Pickles was doing. I will certainly book Lauryn for future visits!”
“Once again, our pup had an amazing time with Samantha and we felt totally at ease! She is observant, kind, trustworthy, great with animals, and excellent at communication. We wouldn’t want to use anyone else! It’s hard to be away from your pet, but having them in Samantha’s care makes it 100x easier!!”
“This is the second time Ari has kittysat for me, and she is just as awesome again. She arrives with on time and searches for the kitties until she finds one to photo. She scoops the litter and does a great job with feeding.”
About: I love all dogs and Gods creatures. I have been around animals all my life. I used to sit outside as a kid on my grandmas porch giving the stray cats attention. If anyone in my family had a dog I would find myself on the floor spending quality time with the dog. I also have a special place in my heart for elderly dogs. I want them to be comfortable and happy. I work part time from home, so I have plenty of time to give care and love to your dog. I can also take them for walks if they need exercise! I have a fenced in back yard for your dog to run around and have potty breaks. I can make a cozy spot at bedtime for your pet if you are able to provide their crate. I will make sure they are fed, safe and happy.
“Karien was great with our two dogs! She was on time, dependable, thorough in her notes and always stayed for the designated time. The photo and videos updates were SO VERY appreciated and a highlight for us while on vacation… we woke up each morning to multiple photos and videos of our pups. I cannot recommend Karien enough. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.”
“Penny was so wonderful with our bulldog Kimber. She was always came when I scheduled her and Kimber was a happy girl when we came home. Thank you very much Penny!! Until Kimber sees you again on our next trip. 😊”
About: I have owner various pets throughout my life and there has never been a time that I have not had an animal in my house. We relocated to the USA two years ago, and have recently adopted a 1 year old Cavapoo. I am currently not working, and my husband works from home, so there is usually someone at home. My kids do take part in sports, so I usually use their practices as outings for the pets I watch and take them along. If you are not comfortable witb this, please let me know. Unfortunately no aggressive breeds are permitted at my home. I am happy to come to your home to spend time with your pets, giving cuddles and taking them for walks in safe neighborhoods. I do not have pets at my home so I am able to take care of your small pets at my home. I have a fenced garden area for potty breaks.
“Lillian has been so helpful for me and my family. My dog absolutely adores her and she always does a fantastic job. She also was able to drop by and take care of my pets when I was away. She is such a blessing and it was so lovely working with her.”
“You would be mistaken to not use Katie for your pets! Right before our scheduled booking, we had a medical event with one of our dogs. We explained the situation to Katie and she handled it perfectly. We felt so much more comfortable knowing Katie was watching him when we couldn’t. We will definitely be using Katie in the future.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Roanoke
Lauryn took incredible care of our cat for a little over three weeks. We know our cat wasn't the easiest at first with her injections, and we are so grateful to Lauryn and her husband for stepping up, trying different things, and finding a creative way to handle an elderly cat safely. It gave us total peace of mind knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. Thank you for going above and beyond. We highly recommend Lauryn!
Hannah was amazing with our two dogs and cat! She took such great care of everyone while we were away and kept us updated with messages and pictures the whole time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We’ll definitely be booking Hannah again!

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.
