“Rover review She took great care of Hazy while I was away. He unfortunately developed vomiting and diarrhea during my trip, so she had to clean up after him daily and keep a close eye on him. It may have been anxiety- but nonetheless-She even brought a probiotic from home for him, which I really appreciated. I ended up adding three extra visits so she could continue monitoring him, and she was reliable and communicative throughout. I really appreciated her taking on the extra work while Hazy wasn’t feeling well.”
“Ariana went above and beyond to take care of our two kitties! One of them shattered a candle and she cleaned up the glass as well as a plant that they also knocked over. She was communicative and prompt and sent us great pics the whole week- our cat loved sitting in her lap! Thank you so much Ariana! We are really grateful.”
“Ty checked in on our cats while we were out for a few days, and was great to work with! Ty arrived at the scheduled time every day and followed up with updates right afterwards, was very easy to coordinate with and responsive to messages. The cats seemed happy and acted like we had never left when we got back. :-)”
“Anton was a fantastic communicator and took my stress away about leaving my kitties. I left for 4 days and have 6 cats and he was fantastic. His picture updates were cute & he went above and beyond to play with them and feed them their wet food. Highly recommend him for any of your animal needs.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have trained many puppies and older dogs alike. All my dogs have been rescues so I’m very familiar with dogs that have come from bad situations and dogs that are misunderstood because of their breeds. I’ve always had dogs of different sizes, breeds and temperaments. I’m always the first person my friends and family go to when they need some extra help with t dogs or just need someone to watch them while on vacation. I live on 10 acres which is perfect for those dogs that love off leash time but don’t get a lot, I love exploring new areas and have assisted in training dogs while in the military. I'm a stay at home wife who takes care of all our animals! I adore dogs and take mine on several walks a day around the farm, we have a creek that the dogs can swim in as well in the nicer weather. Pets are my passion and I love hosting others in my home and going out to other places to walk pets! I live on twelve acres and can offer a safe environment for dogs to safely play in, I have extra long leads so if your pup isn’t quite off leash trained they can still have an amazing experience with the long leads and all the land. I always follow whatever instructions are left for me as I know how important routines can be for a pet!
About: I love animals and have pets of my own. I have experience with pet sitting animals of all sizes. I also finished a class in assistance dog training and also volunteered at a puppy development center. I am very active so I will have no problem maintaining larger dogs. I also love walking and playing with pets to provide enrichment and enjoyment in their lives. I am currently home for a longer break. I go back to school on the 11th of January. I am very flexible during this time. I am dedicated to providing quality care for your pet, as well as giving you peace of mind that they are in good hands. I understand that a pet is like family so I will strive to treat any pet that is under my care like my own.
“Matilda left everything in fantastic shape and took wonderful care of Milo. She even filled our bird feeders - which is such good entertainment for Milo! She is always very thoughtful and informative about her visits.”
“Vanessa did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Sol! She was attentive, reliable, and made sure Sol was happy and well-cared for while I was away. I loved the updates and could tell Sol was in great hands. Highly recommend Vanessa for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Destiny provided perfect care for my two cats. She was accommodating of all my requests and did a stellar job. One of my cats is not the friendliest, but Destiny was able to handle the interactions with patience and understanding. Her updates put me at ease during my vacation, knowing my cats were in good hands.”
“We worked with Lauren this past weekend as she took care of our cat. Lauren was a pleasure to work with. Great communication and responsiveness. She sent photos and texted me before and after her visits with Mia (our cat). More importantly, when we arrived back home I could tell that Mia was happy which lets me know that she had enough attention over the weekend and wasn't lonely!!!”
“Connie was just fantastic. I had a significant change in my plans during this booking and she was very helpful and accommodating. Connie communicates clearly and with great consideration for the overly-protective pet-parent. She has loads of experience as evidenced by conversation about her past clients and her own pets at home. I look forward to using Connie again in the near future. Thanks again Connie!”
“A great sitter who went above and beyond to make my kitties comfortable and happy! Even with all their little quirks. I’m happy to say I’d rebook in a heartbeat for my next trip out of town :)”
About: What sets me apart from other pet owners is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve always had cats and dogs, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I also have a 13-year-old diabetic cat, which has given me firsthand experience with caring for pets who have special medical needs, maintaining routines, administering medication, and paying close attention to changes in their behavior and health. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. I treat every animal as if they were my own and want owners to feel completely confident knowing their pets are in loving and trustworthy hands. I am currently a bartender/server, so my schedule works wonderfully if you're needing someone to look after the fur babies while you work. My schedule can also be flexible if I'm given enough notice. My cat has not lived with other cats in a while due to his diabetes effecting his back legs for a while. My Tigger is my best friend. He is my baby that I care for like a child with routine feedings, medications, vet visits, etc.
About: I am happy to help out with all pets! I have grown up with a range of animals(dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish) and currently own two cats. I am a teacher, so I am looking to help out in the afternoon or in the evenings. Outside of that, I am pretty flexible. I am calm and adaptable, and willing to let your animal take the lead. I am happy to help out with whatever they need, and prioritize animal comfort and safety!
“Gabrielle took wonderful care of our cat, Izzy, while we were out of town. She stopped by for the initial meeting, sent a thorough summary of all that we discussed, and then kept me informed daily as to how things were going. She not only took great care of Izzy, including giving her daily medication, she also managed to make friends with her! Izzy is normally very uncomfortable around people outside of our family so that was a real accomplishment. Gabrielle also watered our plants daily. I will definitely call on her again for future pet sitting needs!”
About: I’m especially a cat person and genuinely enjoy spending time with cats of all personalities—from playful kittens to shy seniors. I know that earning a cat’s trust takes patience, and I’m happy to let them interact at their own pace. I’ve been surrounded by both dogs and cats my entire life and have been caring for pets since I was a child. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats, including a Golden Retriever, a Chihuahua, and several cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family many times, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and lots of love. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Whether your pet needs a quick visit, playtime, feeding, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, so I always take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and care. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your furry family member, and I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

Always a pleasure working with Jeannie. She goes above and beyond! My cat adores her. He runs to greet her at the door. She spends lots of time letting him just cuddle and pur on her lap. She's even been kind enough to keep an eye on my house. Get the mail, and I noticed, she tidied up my messy family room! Thank you again! I look forward to working with you again. I know Buki will be happy to see you!
Leah did a fantastic job watching our two cats. Our cats can be challenging—one is very shy and one eats everything but is very social. Leah did an amazing job meeting both cats’ needs and making them both feel comfortable and cared for. Both our cats got a lot of love while we were out and Leah went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. She sent a ton of updates as well which also made our day better. It made our vacation all the better knowing that everything was taken care of at home. We would definitely recommend Leah’s services and we’re hoping to hire her again in the future.
Jaemin dropped in on my senior cat for 10 days over the holidays. He and his wife came for a pre-booking visit and were great about asking lots of questions and making sure they had all the relevant info. My cat was skittish and didn’t come out on any of the visits but Jaemin always made sure she had fresh food, water, and litter box. He also brought in my mail and took the trash bins down. Would definitely call him again anytime I need a cat sitter. Highly recommend!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
