“I have been using Seren regularly to care for my cat Kingston (I travel a lot) for a few months now and she is AMAZING! She takes such good care of him while I’m gone, always sends thorough, fun check-in notes, lots of pictures (which I adore!), and lets me know how he’s doing. It’s clear she spends her time here actually engaging with him and playing with him which is important to me because when I’m home he’s a partially outdoor cat so when I’m away he needs dedicated playtime or he goes a little stir crazy. She goes above and beyond to bring him new stimulating toys to try out what he likes and gets him into a little routine. I can tell he just loves her, and I do too!”
“Emma always takes such good care of our cat while we are away. She’s a great communicator, takes lots of photos, and is consistent. Thanks again for taking good care of our cat while we are away!”
About: Ever since I can remember I’ve always had at least one furry friend in my house (dogs and cats). I’ve also dog sat for friends and family over the course of my life. This includes senior dogs and cats that need a little bit of extra supervision (including administering medication) and care. I am currently working part-time 25hrs per week 5-hour shifts and am typically off at around 10pm. Therefore, I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends before and after when I do work. More than happy to spend the night taking care of your pet(s) as well. Message me for more accurate details pertaining to my schedule as it can vary from week to week. I have a fenced yard, and can crate your dog(s) if needed. I would provide your pets with all the love they can ask for as well as physical stimulation through walks and playtime with pet toys. If applicable, I am also happy to take your pet to a dog friendly park or beach if that is something that would interest you (and your furry friend[s].)
About: A lifelong animal lover and your new reliable pet sitter. Im available for drop in care/walks, overnights and dog park trips. I am comfortable providing medications and working within strict dietary guidelines. I have a 13 year old terrier mutt named Jack, he's the sweetest boy and will stay with my adult son when I'm tending to the overnight care of your pet(s). My hobbies include reading, yoga, spending time with my family and learning how to sew! I currently work part time as a yoga instructor. Most of my classes are in the evening. My schedule is very flexible to meet the needs of your pets care! When I arrive into your home, I immediately greet the pet(s), having them sniff me and gauge if they want any pets. I'll spend time with the pets if they are ready/willing. From there I'll tend to water, litter box and come back to direct cuddles and play. If your pet is very cuddly, I'll spend as much time as they need during an overnight stay cuddling and giving pets.
“Collin is awesome! I highly recommend him for your pet care. I have a 4 month old kitten and need someone to come play with him when I am out. When I got home my kitten was tuckered out! I received pictures and updates. Such a relief to be able to go out and know someone is caring for your pet. Thanks Collin!”
About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for all types of pets, and I truly love what I do. My own fur babies mean the world to me, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention as if they were my own. Pets hold such a special place in our hearts—they’re our loyal companions who bring us joy every day (and maybe a little sass sometimes). How could we not love them? I have experience with all kinds of dogs—from tiny lap dogs to large breeds, and from shy, gentle pups to friendly social butterflies, as well as dogs who may be a bit more reactive. Whether you’d like me to focus on just your pup one-on-one, or you’re comfortable with me watching multiple dogs at once, I’ll make sure your baby is cared for exactly how you’d like I currently make my own schedule and work from home. I have full availability morning, nights and afternoons. I open to whatever works best for you and making sure you fur baby’s is getting the love and attention they need. I make sure to give them at least an hour a day of some sort of activity ( more if possible ). I do try to incorporate some sort of engaging activity with them and also lots of snuggles.
“Anu checked in on my dog multiple times for a few days. She was so sweet to him and made sure he had everything he needed. Her updates to me were detailed with a lot of great photos that ensured me my dog was in great hands! Will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: 5 years experience of… • Dog walking — Safe, consistent walks tailored to each dog’s pace, energy, and comfort. • Drop‑in visits — Quick check‑ins for pets, including feeding, water refresh, potty breaks, and playtime. • Vacation care — Reliable in‑home care while owners travel, keeping pets on their normal routine and homes tidy. • Medication handling — Comfortable giving oral medications, supplements, and following special‑care instructions. • Feeding & routines — Follow exact diets, portions, and schedules to keep pets happy and healthy. I work part‑time, so I have plenty of open availability to care for your pets — whether it’s walks, drop‑ins, or vacation care, i’m available! I do have a dog — her name is Lola, and she’s a sweet golden doodle. She’s wonderful company for other fur babies and has joined me on many of my bookings. Lola gets along beautifully with all animals and people, and she brings a calm, friendly energy.
“We and our dog Eddy are so lucky to have had Alyssa dog sit for us. Alyssa became a trusted part of our family and we are very appreciative of her professionalism and obvious love for our dog Eddy. Communication was awesome. We knew Eddy was being fed, walked, and loved. Alyssa went above and beyond and is welcome in our house anytime because we consider her part of our family now.”
“Dawn is absolutely incredible. She was able to hunt down our very tricky cat and successfully give her the medication she needs. Pet sitters we've used in the past we're not able to do this. She let us know about a leaking pipe outside and was there to troubleshoot. We can't imagine traveling without her.”
“Kaitlyn took exceptional care of our special-needs Ragdoll while we were away. Our cat has asthma and requires multiple medications, including a nebulizer, an inhaler, and pills. Kaitlyn went above and beyond our expectations, ensuring he received all his treatments with care and patience. Not only is she extremely reliable and professional, but she also took great care of our home. When our kitty had a litter box accident and needed a bath, she handled it without hesitation—something not every pet sitter would be willing to do! On top of that, she spent more time with him than we even asked, knowing that he doesn’t like to be alone. That extra care and attention meant so much to us. We returned home to a well-cared-for cat and a house that was just as we left it. We highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone looking for a compassionate, professional, and dependable pet sitter.”
“Rose is absolutely amazing!! She really saved us when we had another sitter quit, mid booking. She is very trustworthy and responsible and great at communicating! We are so happy to have her care for our pets!”
“We had Jennifer pop in to watch our cat every day for 2 weeks. She was so sweet with Foo and took great care of him. Was so nice knowing our cat was in great hands while we were on vacation. Will definitely be using her again!”

Matthew was an amazing cat sitter for us. He communicated well and would send us daily updates about the cats. He gave them meds and even emptied the litter! He spent extra time with them playing and making sure they got everything they needed. Our house was just as spotless as when we left town. Would highly recommend.
I am so happy we found Amy - she sends photos and a report at every visit and we come home to a happy and content kitty. I can't thank her enough for the peace of mind we have when we're away knowing that she's taking good care of our kitty and our home. Thank you Amy!
I rebooked Breeana a second time because she did a great job the first time. She came to feed my 3 kitties and take care of them while I was away. Again, she did a wonderful job. I was especially grateful that she noticed that a kitty had turned on the air conditioning unit accidentally while the hose that is supposed to vent out the window was venting indoors. She quickly unplugged the unit and told me about the hazardous incident. I was very relieved and will make sure I unplug appliances before I leave next time. The kitties were all doing well and happy when I returned. I would gladly rebook her in the future.
Emelia took wonderful care of my 3 cats while I was away. She came by to feed them, but also took the initiative to bring a brush and a toy so that she could engage with them. In the pictures she sent, they appeared very comfortable and happy. She was successful at getting even my most distrustful kitty to play with the feather-on-a-string, When I returned home, the kitties looked content and everything in the kitty room was super clean. I highly recommend her and hope that I can use her services again in the future.
I was really impressed with Kelsey's kind and sweet ways with my Sammy! He doesn't warm up to easily, and this would have been the very first time I would have left him with a sitter. I have got to say Sam liked Kelsey very much, and came and laid by her, and ate his treats, and really warmed up to her and made me feel oh so comfortable for when I do have to leave him in the future. Kelsey sent me notices when she was on her way here and had wonderful conversation with me once she got here, since I was unable to attend my trip. She was so caring, I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again to take care of Sam, especially now that I have gotten to know her, and was able to see her interact with my precious Sammy. Kelsey was Great!
A heartfelt THANK YOU to Denise for taking care of Gemma (& all the house hiccups) this past holiday week! She kept our minds at peace while we were back East thousands of miles away. Perhaps the best compliment I can give Denise...I have had about a dozen sitters over the past 10 years and Gemma was the most calm and like herself upon our return out of any sitting experience I have ever had. So grateful for you, Denise!

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.

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.
