“Ashlyn did, overall, a very good job of taking care of our pets and our house. There are a few things that need to be changed a bit but I'll go over these with her to clarify them for her. We really appreciate her help. Our usual petsitter (also a Rover.com sitter) was going to be out of town for Thanksgiving, so Ashlyn totally bailed us out!”
“Madelyn was great with our 2 kitties. We came back from our trip to very happy and peppy cats. She was reliable, arrived when expected, and provide very cute photos from each visit. She cleaned the bowls which was very nice. This was our first time booking with Madelyn and will be sure to book with her again in the future.”
“Allison was great! This was her first time watching my boys. She was willing to meet in advance which always puts my mind at ease. Her calm demeanor was a perfect match and she was super communicative while I was away. I will definitely rebook with Allison and would recommend her.”
“Bethany is FANTASTIC! Our two German Shepherds instantly loved her. She is very knowledgeable about animals, is quick to respond to requests, and was very accommodating when our plans changed with short notice. We already have her rebooked for multiple drop-ins and housesitting stays. Highly recommend her!”
“Ann has done a fantastic job (as always!) watching my cat, Maisie, while I was out of the country. She is very responsive and attentive to Maisie’s needs when she drops by, knowing when to play and when to just give her snuggles. She always leaves very detailed report cards, and I trust her to follow any special instructions I leave. I absolutely recommend Ann and will continue to use her services in the future!”
“Cynthia did an awesome job watching our three dogs. Communication was great, she sent lots of pictures and did exactly what we asked her to do. I highly recommend Cynthia if you need someone to watch your pups! We will definitely use her services again.”
“We had a great experience with Amy. She brought us ease knowing our dogs were taken care of while we were away, showed up to each visit on time, and provided daily pictures and updates. We will definitely use Amy again. Thank you!”
“We booked Lauren last minute when our family friend was unable to watch our cats. She was great! Three cats, three different foods, one on medicine, and she was totally fine with it all. Thank you!”
“Mackenzie was professional and very easy to work with. We loved getting updates for our pet. It took a lot of the anxiety away as this was our first time away from our kitten.”
About: I have decades of experience caring for my own personal pets as well as those of family, friends, and coworkers. My pets are part of my family and I know yours are too. I would love to meet your babies and help you care for them while you have to be away. Because I work remotely, I have built-in flexibility during the day. Besides the Jacuzzi occasional errand or appointment I will be home with your pet. When caring for your babies, I follow the routine you set as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get appropriate walks or playtime, and receive plenty of calm attention. I provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Morgan is amazing and took such great care of my pup! She clearly loves animals and it’s refreshing to find someone on this app that is trustworthy and who cares about animals like they are her own. Definitely recommend her for peace of mind! :)”
“Natalie was highly recommended when our usual Rover was out of town and I am so grateful for the recommendation! She was a perfect fit our ten year old grumpy, but so loved cat Frederick!! On time, updated photos and kept him on his schedule!! 😊”
About: Hey! My name is Molly and I have grown up with a lot of pets and cared for others for years. I love animals and have a lot of experience dealing with them and I am especially good with dogs! I also clean on the side so I typically offer cleaning along with drop in visits or house sitting. I have the best availability for drop in visits but can also care for small dogs in my home. I have side work that I do but I really enjoy taking care of pets along side that other work! I care for your pets as if they’re my own! I take very good care of my pets and keep a close eye on what they do to make sure I don’t see any signs of medical issues. If there are behavioral issues I deal with them with a lot of positive reinforcement and firmness but never harshness! I do the same with my clients pets.
“August was great! She made time quickly to come meet our cats before she watched them and communicated well while we were gone! The cats warmed up to her well and we will for sure be using her for cat/dog care in the future!”
“Emmie was great with our cats when we had to leave town on short notice. She took the time to come to the house, meet them, and learn about their routine. While we were gone, she sent updates and asked questions when needed. She took the initiative (after asking if it was ok) to bring a treat to coax one of our cats to take his meds. We returned to very happy and well cared for cats!”
“Abby did a great job taking care of our elderly dog while we were away. She gave us important updates and stayed in communication with any questions she had about his care. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worry knowing Sam was in great hands! Would definitely recommend and use Abby 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.
