“Norma was great! She was very attentive and caring for our 2 cats. She came out and met the cats to learn all the routines and medicine needs of our one cat. We really appreciate her sending us photos daily and staying in communication with questions during her time caring for them. We will definitely use her again when we travel again.”

“Sage is a great pet sitter! Our two cats took to her quickly during the meeting, and she provided great updates each visit. Sage was also very communicative while cat sitting during a bad thunderstorm, helping make sure the babies were okay if power went out. Our home and cat areas were clean and well-kept when we returned. Thank you, Sage!!”
“Claire was great! We had a last minute need for a sitter for our kitty, and she couldn’t have been more gracious and helpful. She took great care of our kitty and even went the extra mile by taking out our trash on trash day. We had peace of mind while we were away because our kitty was in excellent hands!”
“Chris is a gem. She agreed to care for a new cat needing special attention that I adopted just before I left. The young cat developed a respiratory infection and she knew just what to do. She even went and picked up some medicine on her own time. While she gave my new cat special care she was caring for my 2 older cats. I appreciate her prompt to the point communication and photos. Chris always had a positive and down to earth attitude that made things so much easier and such a relief.”
“Grayson is the best! She’s checked in on our cat numerous times and she’s always reliable and trustworthy. She also offered to watch him last minute over the Christmas holiday, which was a huge help to us. Thanks, Grayson!”
“Isaiah was a great find! We’re grateful he was flexible with his visit times as it was hot and we wanted to make sure the dogs were comfortable. They loved him and he made sure they were always comfortable with AC and water. I will say be sure to leave clear directions and an instruction sheet to better help him as he is just starting out but don’t let that deter you. He was very communicative and adaptable and our boys loved his visits. Does everything the app asks and also isn’t afraid to reach out for any questions. Thank you!”

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.

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 .
