“I had never used a service like Rover to have someone look after my cat, but after meeting Lauren, I knew I had nothing to worry about. My Lucy took to her immediately. Lauren sent me daily photos and I could tell she was happy. Upon my return, after almost two weeks, she was healthy, happy, content and no accidents, which is huge because she had been having them before I left. Lauren definitely knows & loves animals and they instinctively trust her. I will definitely call upon her again when needed. She's an absolutel LOVE!”
“Our cat is so happy to be visited by Leah that he barely even misses us! She gives him plenty of belly rubs & attention and sends us such cute pictures that we don't even feel guilty leaving him.”
About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I’ve grown up with them, cared for them, and honestly, I don’t feel quite myself without a tail-wagging buddy around! Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just cozy snuggles on the couch, I treat every pup or senior like they’re my own. When your dog is with me, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I pay close attention to their needs, routines, and personalities—because every dog is different, and they all deserve personalized care and affection. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, you can rest easy knowing your dog is in loving, capable hands. I’ll keep you updated with pics, little stories, and of course, all the happy tail wags! Looking forward to meeting you and your pup soon! 🐶💛 I work from home, so your dog will always have company—whether it’s for walks, regular potty breaks, or playtime. Aside from a quick store run, a gym session, or the occasional dinner out, your pup will be right by my side. 🐾 I usually start my day at 6am with a beach walk & would love to bring your dog along, as long as they are up for a stroll. I have a fenced in, private courtyard & a very friendly female (spayed) cavalier king charles of my own. There are no children in the home.
“Erica was absolutely perfect! She fell in love with Barney and Rocket, and they loved her right back. They were completely comfortable and loving with her. And she even did several things beyond her “job description” such as keeping our bird feeders full and changing the bedsheets. We’ll definitely have her back.”
“Not only did Cornelia keep Penny happy and well-fed, but she also went above and beyond by managing unexpected bathroom cleanups with professionalism and kindness. It’s clear that Cornelia genuinely cares about pets and their well-being.”
“Kyle is great! He seems to really like my cat (I don’t care if he actually does, he fakes it well enough) and always includes little updates of how my little pal is doing.”
“Michelle was great with our cat Jackson! She sent great photos and was very quick to respond and keep us in the loop, what a nice feeling to leave our furry friend in such good hands!”
“Johanna was a great sitter for our cat Morty while we were away for our wedding! She was prompt each day showing up at the scheduled time, provided great care, and always kept in contact with us. Would absolutely recommend Johanna for anyone who wants their pet to have some company while they are away for a few days.”
“Could not recommend Alexis more! She has been so communicative and is so incredibly helpful with our 4 month old puppy. It is so comforting to know he is in good hands with her!”

About: As a dedicated and responsible pet sitter, I provide loving care for pets of all ages, ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness while their owners are away. With a strong background in leadership, customer service, and teamwork, I bring reliability, patience, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. I’m currently in college as a senior, so this gives me ample amount of time to take care of your pet, and make sure they are given the best care possible! I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own space, and I take great care to maintain a safe, familiar, and stress-free environment while you’re away. My approach is based on trust, attentiveness, and a deep respect for your pet’s routine and home.

Lauren was fabulous! Very sweet and kind. She sent me daily pictures of my 2 cats, and cleaned up any hairballs! Added bonus there for sure. Was my first time going out of town and not having someone i know come over, but she really did great and took care of the cats well. Definitely rebooking next time in out of town!
Our cat Pawlina LOVES Cornelia!! She was a feral cat and is quite shy and fearful of most people, but she responded immediately to Cornelia, and even greets her when she comes over. We are very happy knowing that Pawlina is being so well cared for by Cornelia while we’re away!!
Owen has been the best cat-sitter for our 2 cats! Easy to communicate, always on time, understandable of our needs. We have a complicated automatic toilet, feeders, and water dispenser - Owen was able to operate all that stuff. He spent time fixing our automatic toilet when it got stuck. Bottom line, we are happy and will be looking for Owen's services next time if available.

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.
