“Ashley was fantastic! I have a skittish crippled cat who took a liking to her right away. She sent daily pictures and videos and she kept me constantly updated. Definitely rebooking her in the future 😁”
About: I’ve grown up caring for animals my entire life, starting with helping my grandmothers care for their dogs and later taking an active role in caring for my own family dog. I eventually got my own cat, who I’ve independently cared for for several years. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve spent the past 4 months working as an overnight pet sitter, caring for pets of all ages and types and making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. I’ve also worked with children through babysitting and have experience staying calm, responsible, and attentive in situations that require patience and flexibility. My love for animals has even influenced my education. I’m currently a student-athlete at the College of Coastal Georgia majoring in Marine Biology. I’m passionate about animal care and treat every pet as an individual, taking the time to understand their routines, personalities, and specific needs. As a student-athlete, my weekday schedule can be fairly busy, especially before 3 p.m. However, I’m definitely open to working on weekdays as long as we can discuss the schedule ahead of time and make sure it works with my classes and practices. I have much more flexibility on weekends, with the exception of a few Saturday mornings when I have practice. I’ll always communicate my schedule and availability in advance so that pet care can be planned accordingly. I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions and stick to their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whatever your pet needs, I’m happy to accommodate! My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated throughout the visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Ashley is so attentive and truly a blessing to my fur baby. I was nervous with this being my first Rover experience. He immediately took right to her. She communicates very prompt and effectively. She is efficient and not only walks my baby but spends time playing with him and feeding him. I definitely recommend booking Ashley! She is a great photographer too. Always sending pic and videos on his Rover card!”
About: I’ve taken care of sweet dogs, fearful dogs, young dogs, old dogs, sick dogs, high energy and couch potato dogs. All dogs like me and I like them. We snuggle on the couch, play and take naps. I don’t take large dogs anymore unless they are seniors. I’m retired and I live a quiet life. I love all animals and enjoy their company. Pet sitting is not a chore for me - it’s a joy. I’m home most of the day so your pet won’t be lonely. Your dogs are royalty at my house. Don’t expect discipline. They play, nap, get snacks (according to what you bring) watch TV, go on leash for potty breaks. If they need a schedule for meals or meds- no problem. What they get from me is ATTENTION.
“My kitty is 16 years old and usually takes a long time to warm up to someone new. Cheyenne was wonderful with her and made her feel comfortable right away (I was amazed!). Made it very easy for me to relax and enjoy a few days away. I will definitely book with Cheyenne again!”
“Very happy with our sitter Korey! She is great with our cats. She was patient with our one cat that is not so friendly and she even turned on cat TV for them all to enjoy!! We even got some pics of the one enjoying the cat tv!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals all of my life honestly. I was always told I had a “bee charm” because I’ve never had a bad experience with any animal, even ones others have labeled aggressive or unfriendly. I treat my animals like my babies. They’re people who just don’t speak English to me. I work in the restaurant industry so I don’t work long hours and I’m flexible. My sister is also a rover sister and she spends a lot of time at my house. I have a fenced yard in the back that my dog loves to sun bath in and do his business. I have a nice quiet neighborhood that we love to take walks around. My house is full of love. Me and my children love animals. Some would even say we baby them. My sweet boy sleeps at the end of my bed and when I leave I like to put on a movie or pandora so he doesn’t feel alone.
“We were so happy to have Melanie take care of our sheltie for a couple of days. Foxy was well cared for and we had peace of mind that our sweet pet would be properly looked after! We highly recommend Melanie and will use her again!”
“Emma took great care of my Skynard. He was ready to relax when I got home from work the past couple of days. His walks with Emma helped him burn some energy! Thank you for taking care of my sweet boy.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have only met a couple that was not interested in being my friend. Total dog dad with 3 seniors in the home, all are super friendly. They enjoy walks on the beach every day and are very comfortable around other dogs and people. Our neighborhood is very pet friendly and there is a park just a block away. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My pups get plenty of attention each day and enjoy playing with new friends. Your pup will be right at home in our house. It’s very relaxed and calm. We can also do drop in visits to your home, go to the beach, or to one of several parks on the island. I know how it feels to have to leave my furries behind, so with that in mind , I’ll do my best to keep them distracted while their humans are away.
“Staci was super sweet and kind to Lola. She works at the humane society which helped me be so much more relaxed because I knew she would know how to take care of her. Will definitely ask her to pet sit again!”
About: I have always loved animals and caring for them. I started animal care in highschool starting with pet sitting moving into shelter work. I really enjoyed being able to play with and care for animals of all kinds. Though I have a special love for cats, having three of my own. I truly just enjoy getting to meet and spend time with different animals. I also love being able to get in some exercise of my own while going on walks with dogs.. I’m currently working part time at a doggy daycare. Which gives me plenty of free time to fill! I look forward to filling it with your fur babies! I have a large fenced in yard to spend plenty of outside time in safely with your pet. All dogs must be cat friendly. We are no strangers to couch snuggles too!
About: First off I am more than just a dog sitter..I am an animal lover and I have a lot of compassion for all dogs and animals ! Your dog/furbaby is going to think of me as a best friend before the day is over. I will be available at least 3 times a day to walk, feed, groom, play, and whatever else it is you and your dog need ! I have not only owned my own furbabies, but I have also helped take care of other people’s pets for at least 17 years now. I love all animals and can help take care of your pets even if it is more than just a dog..I also love and take care of cats, rabbits, birds, hamsters, fish, and more ! I work from home and only leave to drop-in on my other fur baby clients. So I am never gone any longer than 30 minutes a day. I have a fenced in yard, so all fur babies in my care get to roam free and I also take them on walks around my neighborhood for exercise. Not to mention the one on one attention they receive and endless love and cuddles! I make homemade dog treats too. Sweet potato, blueberries, and all!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
