“Ok Aziza is amazing. We needed someone very last minute and she responded so quick that we were immediately 👌yes. Then we had to change start time and change start date and she was understanding and accommodating. She came in asked questions of our kitty and immediately start playing with him (soda rubbed himself on her immediately, with no dignity). During our trip Aziza sent us videos and photo everyday, brief his situations to me and making sure I’m not worried at all. THE MOST IMPORTANT thing is when we come home she cleaned our apartment just like how we gave it to her, so amazing, so so amazing. We loved the experience, soda lover her, soda got so much attention and love and play time, highly recommended.”
“Alexandra did a great job with our 17 year old cat. We were out of town for 3 days and came back to a very clean living space and a very content Isis. Would definitely recommend Alexandra for overnight sitting with your pet!”
“Mary is very kind, thoughtful and always thinking of her clients. She provides expert advice on pet care and accessories. She brought my shy cats some cute Halloween-y toys and they really loved them. They’ve been running around with them! She also brought them the cutest lifted feeders bc my girl cat regurgitates sometimes. Mary is always very quick to respond and communicative. She is very patient when I get anxiety when I’m gone. We love Mary so much!!!”
“Bazarkul is always so lovely. She goes the extra step to secure our cats are happy & healthy. We really appreciate her professionalism & commitment. Thank you, Bazarkul!”
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life, providing feeding, playtime, and companionship. Friends and family trust me to care for their pets while they travel. Growing up in a village, I developed a natural bond with animals. I also received training on large dog breeds during my studies. I have a flexible schedule since I work from home and run my own business. I attend school two days a week and work part-time, but I can adjust my availability to fit your pet’s needs. Just reach out, and we can find a suitable arrangement! I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment in my apartment, ensuring comfort and care for your pet. I offer home sitting and daycare, giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and a stress-free experience. While I don’t stay at clients’ homes, I prioritize safety and trust, keeping your pet happy and well-cared for in my home.
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood. I got my first cat when I was 8, later I had a dog, and since then caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have 4 cats of my own, including pets with special medical needs, and I take pet care very seriously. My mom runs a rescue in my home country, so helping animals is something truly family-based for me. For me, this is not just extra income, I treat pet care as a serious responsibility, and I understand how much trust owners place when leaving their pets with someone. I have experience with rescue animals, senior pets, and cats with serious health conditions, including diabetes, urinary issues, post-surgery recovery, and cancer care. I am calm, patient, and very attentive to detail. Skills & Experience: 1) Administering insulin injections and basic medications 2) Caring for diabetic pets and monitoring health conditions 3) Experience with oncology (cancer) and post-surgery recovery care 4) Senior pet care (gentle handling, comfort-focused care) 5) Cat care: feeding routines, litter care, behavior observation 6) Nail trimming for cats 7) Basic teeth cleaning 8) Dog walking and general dog care experience 9) Experience rescuing and fostering around 10 cats 10) Reliable pet sitting for friends and family when they travel I always treat every pet as my own and make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for while their owner is away. Pet care fits into my weekly routine on specific days. Right now, I am available on Tuesdays and Fridays, and I can do morning, afternoon, or even late-night visits depending on the booking. I already care for my own cats every day, including a very strict medical routine. I regularly check blood glucose levels and administer insulin injections twice a day. Because of this, I’m very responsible, consistent, and comfortable following precise schedules without missing details. Even though my availability is limited to certain days, I fully dedicate my time and attention during visits. I make sure every pet receives proper care, monitoring, and calm, attentive support. I always prioritize safety, routine, and a calm environment when caring for pets. I carefully follow each pet’s instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and special medical needs. I have experience with cats requiring insulin injections, health monitoring, and strict daily routines, so I am very responsible and detail-oriented. In any home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free, and I always keep their environment clean and secure.
“Looking for a pet sitter who is… 🐱💕 ✔️ Kind & caring ✔️ Reliable & punctual ✔️ Detail-oriented ✔️ Great at following instructions ✔️ Attentive to your pet’s health needs ✔️ Respectful of your home Kristen is your girl! 💙 This was my second time booking with her to care for Oreo and Nala, and once again, she was wonderful. She even kept an eye on packages that arrived while I was away, which I really appreciated. 📦 I came home to happy kitties and my home exactly as I left it. Kristen has officially become my go-to pet sitter whenever she’s available! 🐱💕 I highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I’ve taken care of there doggies ever since I was 14, my family, friend and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets, to walk, feed and play with them I currently have full availability, so I would be able to pet care Monday through Saturday at any time when the clients needs it, except Sunday I have taken care of dogs in my clients house so I have experience feeding them playing with them and walking them outside so I would make them feel comfortable and happy
“Eleni was WONDERFUL with my 2 cats!!! I will definitely be hiring her again!!! Mochi has diabetes and requires an insulin injection every 12 hours in addition to another medication twice a week and Eleni was happy to learn and able to give Mochi his meds which can be a bit daunting and sometimes difficult depending on his mood. but Eleni was attentive and really took the time to learn and care for him properly! my other cat Kumo is a scaredy baby and rarely shows his face around people but Eleni was patient and really put effort into getting him comfortable with her. Eleni updated me with great details about how they’re doing and food. the weather was changing every day from being very cold and then very hot and Eleni proactively adjusted the thermostat accordingly when needed! she would turn on cat TV every couple days AND put treats in their treat games daily so they would stay occupied during the day. Mochi had an accident and Eleni didn't hesitate to clean it up and take out the trash. she really took care of everything!”
About: I got my baby Bambi in 2020 when she was just 9months. I was caring for my grandma cat and my sister dog already and wanted my own. It was the best decision I ever made, I learned responsibility and how to train dogs. I have been loving Bambi since. I am a full time dog mum. I am in online school so I have plenty of free time that I spend with Bambi. We go to the park and little day trips. My dad also lives with me, he is retired, loves animals and will help me out. I love Bambi and treat her as my own baby. She is allowed on all furniture so is your pet. We play fetch in the house/hallway when weather is bad or cuddle up. When I have other pets visiting I like to first let them explore the space. Then I like to take them on a walk around the neighborhood alone so they can get a sense of the environment. I like to get plenty new toys and treats so they are comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was out of college. I have my own 5 year old Pitt-lab mix so have experience with high energy breeds I offer flexible scheduling and do my best to accommodate both planned bookings and last-minute requests whenever possible. Very active communication to make everything beneficial for both you and I. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities\. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking so they receive personalized care\. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise routines, and any other directions you provide\. During walks, I use secure leashes and remain alert to our surroundings to ensure your pet stays safe at all times.
“We’re always happy to have Jaidi watch Quentin. Communicative, clean, and send photos. Always comforting to have someone with trust with nightly medication administration for our big Maine coon. Jaidi is our first call whenever we go away!”
About: What I have learned over the years: Routine grooming, eating and walking schedules are what keeps happy, healthy cuties! 🎀 Not only can we really connect and understand our pets but they do their best to return the favor. Being a sitter that you can depend on with my punctuality, attention to detail/cues, and the natural ability to show up as a friend for your pet!:) ✨✨ I’m a traveling artist with ✨Open Availability ✨. I work with you ahead of time so that we can always stay aligned in time management. Reliability when there is short notice is no problem, we can work something out! Staying as specific to your house routine with your baby is whats important and keeps the flow of sitting a subtle and enjoyable journey. I also would love to bring toys or gifts for pets as we get acquainted. Getting to know each of my clients formally will keep a great relationship overall.
“Lindsey is the best dog sitter/walker/caretaker ever!! My dog loves them so much and felt so comfortable. Arrived early and was super active with Nelly (playing, walking, willing to do longer drop-ins). Anyone would be lucky to have this kind of personalized care for their pet!”
About: I’ve been a cat mom for 20 years and grew up with both cats and dogs. I feel very comfortable around both animals and strive to make them feel as happy as possible while you are away. I’m easy to work with and I always live with positive vibes. I am currently working part time so I can give your pets as much love and care as you need. I also have a car if needed to travel further or even take your pet to the groomers or daycare. I will follow any rules and commands you have in place so I can be consistent in their care. I love giving quality time to my fur babies and will make sure to do the same for yours.

About: Hi, my name is Julia, and I am a Master of Library Science student. I have been caring for pets my entire life and have experience looking after, walking and administering medication for pets of all shapes and sizes. This includes senior pets. I have been dogsitting for friends and family for several years including long term, overnight stays. I’ve looked after everything from a tiny shih tzu to two Belgian Malinois-sized rescues at once. Since moving from Florida to start my graduate studies, my family has been caring for my two rescue cats Yoshi and Cori, whom I miss dearly. I am offering drop-in visits, house sitting and dog walking services. Availability: Every day except after 3 p.m. on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. As my family and friends can assure you, I treat every pet I meet with love and care, as if they were my own. I hope to care for yours too ❤️ I am in school full-time with a schedule that leaves me a lot of availability during the day. My classes are on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays starting at 4 p.m. Every other time of the week, I’d be happy to lend my pet care services. I am a diligent caregiver with a watchful eye who likes to respect a pet’s autonomy. I am patient and respectful of cats that may be shy or dogs that may be nervous but open to a good cuddle with a pet that might need it.
“we loved working with Luca and felt comfortable leaving our sweetie for the first time with him. he was responsive, warm, and went above and beyond in his stays with our cat. 10/10!”

I can’t say enough good things about Rachel and the care she provides for our cats. She keeps great track of all the medications we need to give them, and handles changes so well. Our cats always do well when Rachel cares for them, because of her consistency and the extra love and attention she gives them.
Stephanie and Brian are incredible pet sitters! Right before our wedding weekend, my fiancé and I’s plans for our cat sitter fell apart suddenly, and they were able to step in and fill that role for the 5 days we were away. They were responsive, and gave us frequent updates, ensuring that we were able to enjoy our wedding weekend and everything surrounding it with the comfort of knowing our cat was well cared for. They are also just generally awesome people. I recommend them as highly as possible, and my fiancé, scratch that, my wife and I will definitely rebook them next time we need someone.

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , 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 .
