“Bailey was excellent! I tend to leave very specific instructions, and Bailey followed them to a tee! My feeders have a light that indicates that they’re working properly and I said “bonus points if the rover pic has the lights on” and every single rover card had a picture with the lights on!! Really allows me to feel like my cats are in good hands when I leave. Also this was a very last-minute trip and Bailey was fast to respond, and available for key pick up before I left. 5/5 for sure!”
About: I have been house/pet sitting for a few years now. But aside from that I have a dog and cat of my own! I love hanging out with animals and giving them love and affection. I have loved animals since I was little and have helped take care of my pets since elementary school! I would love to show your animals some love while your away, letting them know they are safe! I am currently unemployed and have a bunch of free time to engage with your animals! I want to include taking care of loving animals into my weekly and/or daily routine! I will walk your dog, play fetch, snuggle and give lots of tummy rubs! I know that your pet will be most comfortable in their safe, familiar environment and want to make sure that your pet is happy!
“This was our first dealing with Brenda. She was terrific in every aspect of caring for our pets. Kind to the animals, punctual and very thorough with her communication with us. I'd recommend her 100%.”
About: **I do have base access!** I grew up with cats, dogs, hermit crabs, and even mice. 🐭 I work part-time, so I have a lot of flexibility. Know that I have a cat of my own, Bo (8 years), but he does great with other pets. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and lots of time to care for your furry baby! I’m able to provide plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and check-ins throughout the day, so your pet won’t be left feeling lonely while you’re away. I live in a spacious three-bedroom apartment with plenty of safe space for your kitty to explore and get comfortable. For new visitors, I reserve my laundry room/guest bathroom as their own quiet space so they can decompress and adjust to their new environment at their own pace. Once they’re comfortable, there’s a long hallway that’s perfect for zoomies and plenty of room to explore! I also have a third-floor balcony that my own cat absolutely loves. He spends hours watching the hummingbirds fly up to visit him. 🐦 Any visiting kitties will always be closely supervised if they spend time on the balcony with me. I know every cat adjusts differently, so I’m happy to give them as much space, attention, or company as they need to feel safe and at home. 🐱
“Neah was great with my cats! She even got my shy cat to come out for pets :), and took great care of my old guy too! I really appreciate her good communication and flexibility with timing.”
“Karen was great! She was amazing with our cats...but the icing on the cake was how clean and organized things were when we got home. We rushed out of the house and weren't exactly tidy. Karen got us straightened out. Great care for the fur babies and great care for our home. Thank you so much!!!”
About: I've taken care of cats & dogs my whole life. Family, friends, neighbors.. I've also have worked with some dogs with training as well. I love high energy & older dogs, they all need thier own special love. Cats of ANY kind I love. I work full time but I'm off by 2 everyday, my schedule is very flexible & I'm very active. Can also do very early walks & visits before work. I'm extremely respectful of my clients house, property & fur children. Great communication is key, but I am very willing to do what the clients ask/needs
About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I’ve grown up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even a pet rat! I love animals and want to spend time with them as much as possible! I believe animals are definitely humans best friend and should be treated accordingly! My experience over the years has taught me how to care for and respect an animal. I also have experience with giving oral medication and providing updates to owners about how their pets are doing while in my care. Pet care is something I’m passionate about because animals give me so much joy and unconditional love! Pet care fits into my open schedule to be able to enjoy taking care of others pets! Caring for someone’s animal is like having another one myself. I do like detailed information about the animal’s likes and dislikes. I also want to make sure that the animal is comfortable with me and that the owner feels good about leaving them in my capable hands!
About: Note: I now have a toddler and an infant so please be aware I will be bringing them with me to jobs. My toddler is extremely loving and gentle with animals and responds immediately when told to leave an animal alone. Additionally, please be aware that I am recovering from several years of physical disability. I'm doing MUCH better but still get winded easily, so I can play fetch or take your dog on a gentle walk but not a run. -------- I come from a family of pet lovers: my mom raised guide dogs for the blind before she had a family, and ever since I was a baby I've been around animals of all kinds. My first pet care job was caring for a friend's cats when I was a tender 6-years-old! Since then, I have cared for numerous horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish, poultry, reptiles (including snakes!), emu, donkey, goats, rabbits.... You name it! My strongest experience lies with domestic dogs and cats. Starting at age 17 I helped a neighbor raise two rescue pups whose mama was a feral dog from the middle east, which presented a very unique set of challenges: and, more recently, two other sweet doggos who needed regular medication. I've also had experience with giving cats medicine from caring for my own cats. I am very involved with each pet, taking time to learn their unique personality. I make a point of focusing on the loved pet I am with at the time, with physical play and mental stimulation a huge part of my time — even older pups just need patience, encouragement, and a gentler style of play! As of Summer 2026 I am currently available pretty much any time! My only limitation is not having a car while my husband is at work during the day but I'm also able to use the bus when needed. I have 10 total years of experience sitting both indoor and outdoor pets, helping continue and enforce training, administering medication in a variety of ways, and encouraging the unenthused to move and exercise. When you book me I will ask a series of questions to help best understand how I can help you and your pet in the specific situation YOU are in! Pets aren't one size fits all and neither are my services. :)
About: I will start off with saying, I am insured with PCI! I’ve had dogs my whole life, I have 5 at the moment. 2 cats, a (Yearling), tortoise, frog many animals. I have experience with plenty of animals. I have animal sat for multiple families and friends and they have loved me! I work fulltime but can make time for your babies. I treat your babies like mine. I make sure they get the love and care they need. I slowly introduce myself, if you need your dog crated I can do that. If all we need to do for your pet is we meet a few times before petsitting that is okay, or if you need me to bring my dog so your dog can meet mine. Whatever helps with your animal to feel comfortable and safe.
About: I had previous experience with working in a doggy day care for about 5 years. The last 3 years i have been a veterinary technician assistant, assisting with animals of all sizes! I currently do work full time. I could probably fit in an evening walk, let’s chat about it! I am free to do the weekends. I have a lot of animals! I have 3 dogs( 2 are large and ones small), and 5 cats! All of my cats are indoor only, they have 3 cat trees and several liter boxes for them. I live on 2.5 acres and my dogs have really good recall, we don’t have any issues with the big ones running off, (the little one sometimes does but only if you arnt watching, which means I’m always watching). I have a pond and couldn’t let it go to waste so i added ducks and geese! One of my cats gets medication, two of my dogs gets medication as well. I trim all my cats nails, one of them i have my husband hold for me because it’s not his favorite thing in the world. I trim all my dogs nails. My little dog gets bathed every 3 weeks (he has really bad allergies). I’m really open to getting to know any animal!
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. Because I work from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, allowing me to offer unmatched attentiveness and flexible scheduling throughout the day. Being steps away at all times means I am always available to maintain strict medication timelines, monitor health cues, and provide companionship whenever it's needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! When caring for your pets in their own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their familiar routine, comfort, and security while ensuring they remain safely inside. Because my own fur babies are inside-only apartment pets, I am naturally vigilant about home safety, secure entryways, and preventing any accidental escapes. I focus on replicating their exact daily schedules, from precise feeding and medication times to their preferred play and rest windows. By providing dedicated, one-on-one attention in the environment where they feel most confident, I ensure they receive both the physical care and the comforting companionship they need to feel completely relaxed and happy while you are away.
“I am a first time customer. Abby made the experience great. She walked me through the process and made me feel confident about the care she takes with our cat. She was professional, reliable and so kind. I’m looking forward to scheduling Abby for April and July vacations if she’s available.”
About: Hi there! My name is Logan, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets through Rover and in my personal life. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and needs. My goal is simple: make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every animal is different, and I’m happy to follow the routine you already have in place. Whether that means specific feeding times, walks, potty schedules, crate routines, medications or special instructions, lots of exercise, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet receives the care they’re accustomed to. I’m also attentive to body language and behavioral cues, which helps me recognize what an animal needs and adjust accordingly. I also have hands-on training experience. I personally trained my Siberian Husky, Atlas, and completed training classes with him through Petco. Working with a high-energy and intelligent breed has given me plenty of experience with patience, consistency, exercise, boundaries, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated. For dogs who love to stay active, I have a large, securely fenced backyard with plenty of room to run and play, along with trails and walking routes nearby. For dogs who prefer a quieter stay, I’m just as happy providing a comfortable environment, attention, and companionship at their own pace. I’m also very comfortable caring for cats and understand that they often require a different approach. Whether your cat wants to follow me around all day or would rather have their own space, I’ll respect their personality and make sure their normal routine is maintained. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pet like a member of the family, follow your instructions closely, and keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in experienced and caring hands. I normally have a flexible routine that can be worked around whatever is best for you and your furball. I do ask for a few hours notice to be available. I treat your home as my own and your pets as my own. I normally like to keep things clean, cozy, and respectful. I feel like that’s the normal experience anyone wants when walking into a home or meeting someone for the first time. So why not make it any everything you do type of thing!
“Amber did a great job housesitting for me and taking care of my two cats. She was observant and mindful of the environment, allowed the cats to be comfortable at their own pace, and won them both over! She sent pictures and updates and was a great communicator. Thanks Amber!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and have experience with both dogs and cats of all different ages, personalities, and needs. I’ve cared for seniors, special-needs pets, anxious animals, and pets who need oral medications or a little extra patience. I’m big on following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — meals, walks, medications, playtime, bedtime, and all the little things they’re used to at home. Some pets want to be attached to your hip, while others need time and space to warm up, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. I have two cats of my own and have had cats throughout my life, so I’m very comfortable with cat care as well as dogs. I’m used to everything from easygoing pets to the stubborn, mischievous, and “will absolutely eat that if you turn around for two seconds” variety. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll pay attention to your instructions, keep you updated, and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I spend most of my free time at home and have a pretty flexible routine, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, playtime and company. We always start the day with a morning walk before I head to work, and I’m usually home by 3pm for the rest of the afternoon and evening. When I’m not home, my husband usually is, so there’s typically someone around to keep an eye on things and give your pet some company. I can sometimes accommodate short-notice requests, and I live right next to two parks in a safe neighborhood with plenty of places to walk. My home is kept pretty pet-safe — my two cats are professional troublemakers, so they’ve made sure we don’t leave much out that curious pets can get into. It’s just my husband and me at home, so there aren’t lots of unfamiliar people coming and going. We have a fully fenced backyard, and the house is mostly hardwood and tile, so scratches, muddy paws, and normal pet messes aren’t something I stress about. If your pet needs their own space, they can also have an entire room to themselves for a quiet, comfortable place to relax.
“Anna was a phenomenal pet sitter, and we will not hesitate to hire her again! First, and most importantly, our animals were well cared for. We appreciated the updates, and photos and videos Anna sent. All of their daily tasks were taken care of and we came home to clean pens and litter boxes. She also treated our house with such respect. It was so nice to get home and have happy animals and a clean house.”

Jessica is our go-to sitter. She takes care of our fur family while we're gone - but more importantly than just making sure our kitties have food, water and litter, she spends time with them - makes sure they get treats, and spends a little time playing with them. That's so important to keep them enriched, since we are not home to do this. On top of that, she keeps up with cleaning the cat litter and cat messes that they make while we're gone. She is the best sitter we've ever used, and we've used her services a number of times now - and will keep doing so for our trips where the kitties can't go with us.
Lisa as always just does an outstanding job taking care of our cat Callie. We always know she is well cared for looking at the pictures she sends. Callie has come to know her so it makes it nice that she interacts with her. We highly recommend her for great care with your animals. Linda Johnson
Absolutely amazing!! Very responsive, took good care of our cats, and very sweet! There was definitely a comfort in knowing that someone that was reliable and sweet to our babies was taking good care of them while we were gone! Made our trip so much more relaxing since we didn’t have to stress or worry about our cats. Also did amazing with our one cat who has a lot of food allergies and requires a little more care when it comes to his food (eats special food and we have feeders that will only open for the specific cat’s microchip)! Overall, highly recommend and will 100% be rebooking!!
Sarah, as always, is amazing. I trust her to care for and love my critters like her own. My geriatric kitty cat hauls her old bones out of her heated cat bed to climb down the stairs and greet Sarah. I've seen her do it, and she doesn't even get herself up to greet ME! She's particular and crotchety as all hell, but she loves Sarah. Honestly, there's no greater evidence that somebody is good people as when an old calico gives her stamp of approval consistently. Neko thinks a visit from Auntie Sarah is the best thing. Only just slightly less so then a Churu, IYKYK!!

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 .
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 , 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 .

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 , 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.
