“James took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. One of our cats is shy and the other is very needy, and James was incredibly patient with both of them. He was also super communicative and sent regular updates throughout my trip, which gave me such peace of mind. It was a huge relief to know my cats were in such caring hands. We're so grateful and will definitely be booking James again!”
“Alexys was great, and took fantastic care of Lincoln. The updates were perfect, and she took care of every detail with no worries at all. She went above and beyond, and we will book her every time we are in town!!”
“Natalee befriended my shy cat on the first day! She’s a natural. When I needed to make some changes to the schedule, she was very accommodating. I will call her again when he need arises.”
About: Unable to have pets of my own, I love taking care of others! I love cat sitting - although I am a dog lover from the start. I love learning each pet’s distinct personality, the ways they play, nonverbal messaging and patterns. I am comfortable giving medications - having had a cat that lived well into her 20s, as well as kitten care. I love dogs, especially walks, play time and petting! I am a vetted and trusted house sitter in Portsmouth. For cats, I typically do a morning feed and play time, lunch time check in for play, brushing or just presence and an evening hang out - food, litter box, play time and cuddle time. When I have time off I like to spend it with the animals. I can come to you and will treat your home better than my own - more like I am looking for a five-star airbnb review. I am quiet and mostly want to spend time with your pet and read.
“Lydia was a fantastic cat sitter for our two cats while we were traveling. She was punctual, cared for them as instructed and even our cat that is wary of strangers warmed right up to her. Would recommend Lydia for your pet sitting needs.”
“Alyssa was fantastic to work with & I knew that my fur baby would be in good hands with her! She went above and beyond to make sure my cat was ok & happy (as he could be) while we were away. Would definitely recommend and book with her again!”
About: I am a kind and caring person to all animals. I’ve housesat and taken care of neighbors dogs and cats when they were away. I have experience with heat-sensitive pets so I have experience gauging pets’ comfort level in relation to outside weather. I'm free mostly anytime, I’m extremely responsible and will take careful and loving care of all animals that I take care of through rover. I’ve always loved animals and rover is a great opportunity to earn money while having fun. Dogs would get my undivided attention during walks and other services. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I truly love animals and I have time to give them the care they need. Thank you for the consideration! I currently work remote so I am flexible in regards to when a pet needs care at any time. I also have availability on the weekends. I have ample space for pets to enjoy and run around. I live in a friendly neighborhood with minimal car traffic for walks. Open backyard as well.
“Cecilia was so caring about my cat, Lily. She had a great time! And her deep expertise was extremely helpful -- I learned about new toys, treats, and care for Lily. Thanks!”
“Amy has done a great job taking care of our two cats and our house. This is the third time she's stayed here, and we plan to hire her again. She clearly loves cats, and we can tell our guys like her too.”
“Barbara did an excellent job watching my cat for over a week! She showed up around the same time each day, and did such a good job looking after my car, who is often difficult with strangers. I will definitely contact her in the future for additional help!”
About: I have always had a fondness for animals. I primarily took care of my family's pets growing up, as well as those of friends and family as an adult. I have been walking my own very large, strong dog for 4 years now and realized how much I love doing this for him and others. I am comfortable with any size and can handle those larger friends too. I am experienced in different types of leashes and collars and will happily work with the way you want your pet walked (including reinforcing training techniques you have). I have a very flexible schedule, particularly during "school day" hours. I can also do check ins during evening hours or on weekends schedule pending. I will work with you on your pet care needs. I will always treat your pet like my own and make sure they are safe and happy during a walk, adventure or a check in.
“Erica is a fabulous pet sitter and I recommend her 100%! She took care of our two cats while we were away. I get very worried when I leave them but she was there as planned each day exactly when she said she'd be there. While I didn't know Erica before I hired her, I immediately felt confident in her after we met. She took notes on everything and did everything she said she would. I got a very timely Pet Report Card with photos and details about what the kitties were up to after each visit. When you're entrusting your pets and your home to someone, you absolutely want someone you can trust as much as Erica. I am very thankful!!!”
About: I offer animal communication readings for you and your pet. You simply ask your pet questions and I relay their answers! I have been a psychic for 13 years. I work for myself so I can create my own schedule. I do my animal communication calls over zoom and am pretty flexible in terms of days/times. I can do readings for any type of animal. Clients freaking love getting readings to feel closer to their pets! I care for pets by making sure they are seen and understood. Have you ever had a sitter that could actually talk to your pet? It's a game changer!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I’ve walked and fed them, and made sure they were happy at home. I have my own 11 year old beagle/terrier/boxer mix dog Bailey who I love to take care of, he’s my best friend. I’m a college student, and I have times throughout the week especially on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I like to bring calming and loving energy into every home. I love to make sure each pet is comfortable. I love to take dogs on walks, play with them inside and outside, and make sure they are getting fed and cared for.
About: My parents ran a German shepherd dog breeding business when I was growing up. I helped deliver puppies and tend to our 5+ adult dogs and litters of puppies from a young age. Additionally, I've raised and cared for cats throughout my life. In college, I worked seasonally for a dog daycare and boarding facility. Post college, I worked for a dog trainer and took dogs on hikes in the woods. I would be more than happy to hike your dogs if they enjoy that level of exercise. I prefer to organize a meet up with your pets before watching them to get a better understanding of their mannerisms and needs so I can best accommodate. I work part time for a few different companies. My work is flexible if given enough time in advance. Happy to discuss further as needed. I maintain your pups regular routine to the best of my ability. It is important for your pups to have as much "normal" as possible, sometimes it's tough on them for their parents to be away.
“Aaron is awesome! He put up with my blabbering about my dogs during our meet and greet, and was very polite and kind. He didn’t mind my dogs’ high energy and excitement. He took very cute pictures of them while he was looking after them, and he kept me updated on how they were doing. He’s an absolute delight; I can’t recommend him enough!”
About: I am a huge animal lover. I have raised six chickens and loved them like family. At the Pumpkin Wall Farm in Derry, I volunteer with rescued barn animals. I am more than welcome to keep your cat, teacup dog, or small animal company while you are away. Your little ones will be fed, played with, and cuddled. While I don’t specialize in grooming or medical administration yet, I am excited to learn and follow any procedures your pet requires. My schedule is astonishingly flexible. If you need someone at the last minute, I am here for a quick drop-in. I am available Monday through Friday. Note: My availability varies around Sundays and major holidays. Your cuddle-buddies will always be kept in a clean, safe, and enriching environment with me. Litter boxes and food stations will be kept pristine throughout the day. Places where your pet can easily get lost will be checked such as: cabinets, closets, tight spaces and wires. Pets are leashed and supervised on our fun outdoor trips.
About: From 🦀 to 🐴 (but no seahorse experience, sorry) I adore all creatures great and small, “and your little dog too” as someone who didn’t much like to get wet once said! Experienced, sincere and trustworthy housesitter and petsitter but new to this app, I’ll add some of my favorite fur-tography inevitably but many are passed away and it makes me sad. My undivided attention, I’m doing this because I love to, not because I’m bored. It’s worthwhile to me to be of use. To the old fashioned manners born, to treat another’s home with respect and care, to leave any place indoors or out of doors in a golden-rule adjacent way.

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.

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 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.
