“Grace was great with my boy Murphy! She was very communicative and made sure I was aware of anything I needed to be made aware of. Murphy loved the visits and I will definitely rebook her in the near future!”
About: My grandfather was a veterinarian for 50 years. I fortunately got to grow up living with them & was able to see animals of all ages, shapes & sizes. I don’t think there was a day where I wasn’t with him at the office “helping” out (scooping poop and cleaning kennels). In my own adult life, i have 4 of my own animals who I treat better than myself 🤣 i love them to pieces and always do my best to ensure their needs are met. You can expect me to do the same for you! My 17 yr old man Tiger has some extra care needs so I am 100% comfortable with doing extra care needs for your animals. I’m a social worker that is able to make her schedule most weeks. I work from home a few days a week and am able to make a flexible schedule. You can trust me to provide for your animals as I provide for my own. I work for the State of Iowa & have passed a background check with no concern.
“Megan was able to make a home visit in the middle of the day on short notice. Though she was there a short duration, she still sent pictures. We could tell our dog was happy to see her again.”
“Morgan was absolutely phenomenal! We have some older cats who require medication and she was a pro! Will definitely be reaching out again the next time we leave town.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better drop-in sitter for my cats. She truly went above and beyond, especially for my oldest cat who had matted fur. After asking for permission, she removed the matted areas and educated me on maintenance. I can tell how much she loves cats and how knowledgeable she is about them. I am so glad I found Rover and Sara.”
“Kendra is so wonderful! She noticed that my cat was out of food and gave him more for me. And my dog really emits her visits too! We’ll be requesting her services again, I highly recommended her if you need any help with your fur babies!! and... She is always right on time”
“Lisa always left informative and funny blips about the pet visit along with incredible photos that reassured me my pet was being well taken care of while I was on vacation. Highly recommend!”
“Did a great job checking in on my cats! Normally my cats are pretty stressed by the time I come home from vacation but with Kassi I could tell that they were much happier and relaxed while I was gone!”
“Adrianna was a wonderful sitter for our cat, Jaxson! She was very accommodating and let us add on a second visit each day last minute. We got an update and pictures every visit and she kept us informed on our cat's litter usage and eating after a health scare right before our trip! It definitely eased our minds and made our vacation more relaxing. We would definitely use her again for future vacations.”
“Nejra did an excellent job taking care of our cats. She was willing to come to our home to meet our cats so we could show her how we feed our diabetic one. Her drop in visits were 12 hours apart as we requested, including administering insulin each visit. She provided detail and photos twice a day and even a video of her petting. I highly recommend Nejra and we will be hiring her again!”
“Emily is very dependable and leaves us completely satisfied with the service she provides while we are on vacation. We love the pictures she takes and how thorough she is taking care of our dog Bailey.”
“Zoe did a great job taking care of our big pit bull and our ornery terrier puppy this last week. She did an excellent job of letting us know when there were concerns, brought in packages from the porch, and even offered to clean up the muddy paw prints that our boys trekked in while we were gone. Definitely plan to use this service (and request Zoe if possible).”
“My dogs and cat were in such good hands. Highly recommend him. Will use again and again. Was in another country and he was so patient with my payment issue. I didn’t have to worry even at 3700 miles away.”
“Jessica is amazing. I had flight troubles and had to add trips. she covered for me without any problems and played with my pup even in sub freezing temps. If I have to go on a trip without my pup again I will be calling Jessica right up”
“Ash has been amazing, from beginning to end!! Great communication, and my pup must love her, because he is way better behaved for her than us, LOL!! Highly recommend!!”
“Austin is our go-to! He takes great care of our two cats and is super willing to adjust to their needs/wants to minimize stress and keep them as happy as they can be until we return home.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Saylorville
The care my kitties received was exceptional! Time was actually spent with them so they were able to warm up and get attention - and they loved their new friend. I enjoyed and looked forward to the pictures after each visit, they were always so cute and sweet. Communication was excellent, I didn't ever worry about the cats while we were away.

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.
