“She is amazing. We have fluky schedules so we appreciate her working with us and our kitties needs. She sent pictures as well as posting on rover. We will be scheduling with her again”

“We reached to Corey looking for a sitter for our Sophie bug. He was quick to respond and schedule a meet and greet. We had a last minute trip out of town and Corey was more than willing to work us in to his schedule.”

“This is the 2nd time Sophia has watched my cat while I was away on a trip and she is phenomenal. She sends lots of pictures and specific updates. When I come home I can always tell my cat has been well cared for! I highly recommend booking her for your pet care needs 😊”

“We highly recommend Samantha for any of your pet sitting needs. She recently watched our 10 year old rescue cat. She made two visits daily and not only did the necessary requirements, she spent a lot of quality time petting and bonding with him. This was the first time we have returned home from a trip not to find him the least bit skittish or anxious. We are pleased to have found his “Aunt Sam” and will continue to use her services. She does the little things to make it the perfect experience. A+++ services.”

“I have 2 cats name Ella and Kate Spade. Taylor was wonderful. She sent me pictures everyday and reported their activities. She dropped in everyday for 2 1/2 weeks without a single problem. Definitely will use her again on my next trip.”

About: I have had dogs most of my life and volunteered at a large shelter back in St. Louis for more than 10 yrs. I walked dogs, took them on enrichment trips, fostered them and helped at the shelter by just cleaning and doing laundry. I loved all the different dog personalities and tried to do anything that would make their life better. I would love to take care of dogs now that I'm retired and will also be volunteering at the local shelter here I'm retired and my dog recently passed so I'm craving dog time. With no dog i now have more time to dog walk I am available to dog sit or walk but live in a small rv so dog boarding might be tricky though I'm willing to try. I live in a dog friendly park that has a nice trail and isn't very crowded

About: I approach all walks of life with an open heart and love. Because of this I believe all critters seek out my affections and makes for fun interactions. I am currently at a cross road in life and looking for new situations that are more fulfilling. I absolutely enjoy spending my time with four legged friends. I have a mostly private fenced in yard with plenty of room for running and playing. I also can provide crates and segregated spots for our friends that need their own space or maybe a little to shy.
“Misty came by for a third meet and greet with Mia and we went over feeding instructions and the walking route for her morning post breakfast walk. Mia recognized Misty and was wagging her tail. Misty was good with Mia and there were no problems walking, or coming in the house. Misty was on time, even for early morning visit which was appreciated. Thanks!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I currently have four dogs, a 5-year-old Lab/ German Shepherd mix, a 9-year-old Great Dane/ Lab rescue with health issues, a 9-year-old Shih Tzu with special care needs, and a 6-month-old Golden Retriever. Caring for them has given me experience with puppies, senior dogs, large and small breeds, administering daily routines, and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention. I've also owned cats throughout my life and currently have one. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I treat every animal with the same patience, love, and care that I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, while also giving you peace of mind that your home and furry family members are in good hands. I have a flexible schedule and can work around your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or lots of cuddles, I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will treat them with the same love and patience I give my own four dogs and cat. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home. I'll follow your pet's routine and any special instructions carefully, whether that includes medications, senior care, puppy care, or extra exercise. I'l keep your home clean and secure, send regular updates and photos, and make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable until you return. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind.
About: From a first grader to present day, dogs have enhanced my life. It's been a privilege being a foster mom for several years with VIP Rescue of central Florida. Teaching basic obedience, grooming and health related issue. Currently, my fiance' Ron and I have three doodles that adorn yet challenge our daily life. A Bernedoodle who is 2 and a mischief when it comes to snagging shoes and slippers. Gus and Grace labradoodles are three. Grace a circus dog full of zoomies and antics, Gus a gentle quiet soul! I'm proud to be their mom! If I'm to be the sitter for your fur baby, please know they are my priority and will treat them with love dignity and respect. The same goes for your home. I currently work part time in the home health field. Where I've dedicated myself full time. I'm looking to switch gears by hanging up the senior home health to canine care. My home is surrounded by a woody environment, providing shade and room for ball play with exercise. There are three fenced sections, separating small dogs from larger dogs. The shy or needy dogs from those with special needs.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I work at a dog boarding kennel currently and have worked at the animal shelter where I cared for all of the strays and helped them try to find new homes and reunited lost pets with their families! I don’t feel a family is complete without a pet as I have always had one (or more)! They are family 💖 I work at a boarding kennel part time and am able to care for pets mornings before work for potty break and evenings after work for potty breaks and play time. Morning potty breaks and evening potty breaks and play time on my days off I ask for owners to have written instructions for the specific care for each pet so that I may make sure their pet/pets are taken care of as if their owners had never left! Routine is a big deal for pets and owners!
“James loves our puppy Prada. We are so grateful to have found him. He takes time with her and updates us each time. He has also gone in and corrected my mistakes in Rover. I would not hesitate to refer him.”


About: Pets have always been a part of my life—whether fur, scales, or feathers, there’s never been a time my home wasn’t shared with animals. I truly believe pets don’t just live in a house—they make it a home and become family. I recently welcomed a playful cat named Ducky, who has quickly reminded us what it’s like to have curiosity, energy, and a bit of chaos woven into everyday life. That same appreciation for each pet’s personality carries into the care I provide. Whether it’s a quick visit or a longer stay, you can count on me to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for as if they were my own. I focus on maintaining their routine, minimizing stress, and making sure they feel secure and at ease—until you’re back home and reunited. I'm currently a reservist in the military, so I have a lot of free time to help busy schedules and vacations. You want to take that cruise you have been planning? Or have a busy meeting to go to? You can count on me We share our home with a lively, vocal kitty named Ducky who keeps things active and full of personality. She’s playful, curious, and always ready to “chat,” which has made us very attentive to creating a safe, calm, and well-managed environment for all animals in our care. That same level of awareness and responsibility extends to every pet I look after. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort, ensuring each pet feels secure and cared for as part of the family while they’re with me.
About: I offer loving, reliable pet care in a calm and relaxed environment. I specialize in well-behaved pets and focus on making them feel safe, comfortable and at home. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs over the years and truly treat them as part of the family. We had beloved dogs growing up, and I’ve also had cats—including a rescue cat which we loved very much. I'm naturally attentive to each pet's behavior, routine, and comfort. I take the time to understand their personality, so they feel calm and secure while you're away. I'm also friendly, respectful, clean and easy to communicate with. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in caring and responsible hands. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment for pets in my care. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision throughout the day. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I take pets out on leashed walks and supervised potty breaks to ensure their safety at all times. I also have a spacious outdoor patio area for fresh air and short breaks. Inside, I maintain a clean, comfortable space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow each pet’s routine closely and make sure they receive the attention, care, and affection they’re used to. In a client’s home, I respect their space and instructions, keeping their pet’s routine consistent and stress-free.
About: I will take care of your dog and play with them when I come on the visits. I will also take them to the park and run with them. I own a boston terrier and a pit bull and they are my loves. I will care for your dog like they are my own. I can also take care of puppy's and will give them the attention they need. I Have always not only love dogs but every animal. I wanted to be a vet when I was little just so I could work with animals. I think dogs are the best animals because they comfort anyone who is upset or just bring joy to your life. I think dogs have a purpose to make their owners happy and will love you unconditionally. I am doing dog sitting and dog walking part time. I am available Monday through Friday. I have a main job and I work from home Monday and Friday so four day weekends are better for me to dog sit. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday I go into the office so I can only do two drop in visits during those days. I work on weekends as well. I would come inside the house and greet the pups. I would make sure to take them out to go potty and then give them a treat before I go.
“We highly recommend Denise for animal care. At our "meet and greet" prior to vacation we could tell immediately that Denise is a competent, intelligent animal lover. While away on vacation, Denise visited several times per day to care for our animals and gave us daily photos and updates on their well being. Denise happily did more than what was expected of her. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking animal care and thank her so much for doing such a great job!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was six years old. I grew up with all sorts of animals including dogs, cats, and hamsters in which I was the main caretaker for. Throughout middle and high school I also looked after neighbors’ dogs, cats, and birds. I am very active and love to bike, walk, and hike. I love to take my own dogs on hikes and am used to walking and caring for multiple animals at one time. I am experienced with high energy dogs, blind dogs, puppies, and older dogs! I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays which gives me flexibility throughout my day to care for pets! My hour lunch is used for longer walks or playtime with my pups. I am very accommodating and can easily adapt to the situation I am in. Additionally, I am a fast learner and can adjust to accommodate your pets health, activity, and attention 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 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.
