“Shelli took great care of my cat! She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. She was very helpful in troubleshooting a lock issue in which we had to wait for a locksmith to come to my place. She did everything she could to make sure my cat was alright, including coming back late at night to feed him once the lock issue was resolved.”

About: I have been a pet owner my whole life. My family's first pet was a cat who preferred to be away from humans. Living with him taught me how to respect the reclusive cat while still providing a loving environment for them. The second pet I grew up with was a highly energetic and profusely anxious weimeraner. She taught me how to work with larger dogs with high energy and how to help calm their nervous system when she got over-excited (which was at least once a day). In college I volunteered at a local cat sanctuary where I cleaned the enclosures while the cats were still in them. I interacted with cats who were on the entire spectrum of sociabiltiy ranging from big sweet baby energy to very feral. I currently have two cats that I adopted. I have had to give them rounds of medicine and have had to learn the best ways to administer it. I am also at their command for whenever they want attention, which is at least once an hour. Thank you so much for considering me as your drop- in sitter! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions about my experience with our furry friends. I am available most days and times Monday-Friday. I am also an early riser! Weekends I have less availability as I am training to be a pilates instructor. However I will be available after 5:30pm. I ensure that all pets that i have watched have a clean and comfortable environment to live in. When I drop in on dogs, the first things that I do are look for any accidents (especially if that is known to be an issue) and then I make sure that they have some fresh water. I also make sure to give them a little treat if that is allowed as well. If there is a yard I will let them out and supervise them the whole time, or just give them lots of scratches instead if thats what they prefer. I will pick up any and all poop that I find and ensure that it is disposed of properly. For cats I do the same thing and make sure that the litter box or boxes are scopped. I also ensure that the area around the litter boxes is maintained particularly if a furry friend is inclined to really throwing around the litter. If cats are out and about while I drop in and want attention, I will make sure to give them all the pets and scratches they desire. If they are on the independent side, I respect that and let them decide of they want to interact or not.
About: Hi! I’m Carly, a lifelong cat lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m also actively involved in cat rescue, fostering, TNR, and helping community cats, so caring for kitties is truly a big part of my life. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your cats while you’re away. I’ll treat your kitties like my own and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while keeping you updated along the way. 🐾🩵 I’m available for early-morning visits and weekday visits after 5 PM. On weekends and holidays, I have open availability and can accommodate multiple visits throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine whenever possible! 🐾 Safety is always my priority. With my own pets, I maintain clean feeding, water and litter areas, monitor behavior closely, and make sure everyone has a comfortable, secure space. In a client’s home, I carefully follow their routine and instructions, double-check doors and gates, and watch for changes in eating, bathroom habits or behavior. My rescue experience has taught me to be patient, observant and especially careful with shy, nervous or escape prone pets.
“I'm so thankful to have found Jessica on Rover! She and her family took excellent care of my kitty during their drop in visits. Great communication and she even sent me photos to ensure me that my cat was doing well. I will definitely rebook the next time I travel.”

“Molly was great! She stopped by to check in on our cats while we were out of town and took care of everything that we asked. Loved getting pictures of our babies while we were gone. :)”

“I was away on vacation for a week and needed a pet sitter last minute. Sydney was really easy to work with and had no problem with the instructions. Her communication was prompt and clear. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Highly recommend Elise! She maintained great communication, which provided peace of mind. She paid great attention to detail, ensuring our cat was well cared for, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.”


About: Animal lover for life! Growing up with cats and dogs gave me an early foundation in animal care and communication (the non-psychic kind 😄). For the past three years, I've volunteered with Guide Dogs of America, socializing and training puppies from 4 to 8 weeks old. This work has deepened my understanding of dog behavior, development, and trust-building from the very earliest stages of life. Cats hold a special place in my heart too. Years of living with them taught me how to read feline body language, respect their independence, and create a calm space where they can be comfortable. Friends and family turn to me as their go-to sitter, and I bring that same dependable, loving care to every animal I meet. I come to your home, keeping your pet in their own familiar environment so they stay relaxed, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away. As a yoga and piano teacher, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I have two dedicated teaching days where my availability is limited, but the rest of the week I have generous windows of free time- perfect for popping in, spending quality time with your pet, and making sure they feel loved. Since I provide in-home sitting, your pet stays in their own familiar environment the entire time. I follow your established routines: feeding schedules, walk times, sleep spots, and any special instructions you leave. I treat every home with respect and keep safety a top priority, making sure gates, doors, and any pet-proofing measures stay in place throughout my visit. Your pet's comfort and security always come first.
About: I've raised a kitten for a year with my roommates before I had to move, I adored taking care of her and miss my bestie every day. I'm currently taking evening classes and have a lot of free time on weekdays and weekends. I'm very flexible and would love to add animal time into my every day routine. I cannot board animals due to my apartment's regulations, but am happy to watch your pets in your home or take them on adventures outdoors.
“We just did a quick download meeting before Brendan takes care of our pup for the weekend. He was very attentive and asked lots of questions so he knows all of Fred’s quirks for the weeekend.”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve had my childhood dog for 15 years, a 6-year-old cat, and recently said goodbye to my beloved cat who lived to be 18. I also have many dogs in my extended family whom I’ve loved and cared for since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors have always trusted me to care for their pets, whether that means going on walks, feeding, bathing, or administering medications. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I take that responsibility seriously. Safety is always my number one priority, but just as important to me is making sure every pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for as a member of the family. I know that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routines, and I want to make sure they feel secure and happy while you're away. I’ve loved animals since I was little, and spending time with them has always brought me a sense of comfort and grounding. Caring for animals is something that genuinely brings me joy, and I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same love, patience, and attention I give my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so my weekday mornings are dedicated to school and clinical responsibilities. However, I’m generally available every day after 12–1 p.m., including afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends, and I have flexibility throughout the week to accommodate your pet’s needs. Being a graduate student, time management has definitely become a strength of mine! I’m happy to work with your schedule, whether that means afternoon walks, drop-in visits, waking up earlier in the mornings, feeding, playtime, or providing extra love and attention while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m committed to being reliable, flexible, and attentive to their individual needs When caring for pets in their own homes, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that pets thrive on routine, so I will do my best to follow their usual schedules for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I also want to make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment based on their individual personality and needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I will always prioritize your pet’s safety, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you consistently updated so you can feel at ease while you're away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or simply enjoys relaxing with some company, I will meet them where they are and make sure they feel cared for.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for 5 years. I love walking dogs and playing with the animals when house sitting. I always ask what the owners want and follow their instructions. For house sitting can come multiple times a day. Bringing good energy and ready for a walk or play time. I work part time but can come any time on Monday, Tuesday, and can do walks Wednesday through Sunday before 3:40 pm. I am always on the go and love going on beach walks or just walking around the neighbor hoods. For house sitting I can check on the animals through the day and after work can spend the night or do a night check. I take care of our neighbor dog and two cats when she is off traveling. Usually come in the morning and feed animals and play with them. Then I take the dog for a beach walk or we go on a jog in the neighbor hood. Then I come back around lunch and get all the zoomies out check on them and play with them. Then I go before work and after work to let them out and check on them. Before work we usually go on a 20 minute walk just to get them outside. The cats usually follow us on the second walk.

“Soleil was AMAZING, and I genuinely cannot recommend her enough! She took such wonderful care of Lemon while I was away at a conference, and I never had to worry for a second. She was reliable, communicative, incredibly sweet with Lemon, and just made the whole experience so easy. She also went so far above and beyond what I asked her to do. I came home and realized she had cleaned my cat’s litter box AND taken out the trash—neither of which was remotely part of our arrangement! It was such a thoughtful surprise after a long trip, and honestly just says so much about the kind of person she is. I came home to happy pets and a home that had clearly been really cared for, which is about the best feeling you can have after traveling. Soleil is kind, thoughtful, dependable, and an absolute gem. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to basically anyone who will listen. Lemon and I are officially huge Soleil fans!”


About: I've grown up fostering puppies and eventually taking care of three family dogs. Additionally, I've volunteered for a cat rescue group known as 'Cats In Need.' Aiding in adoption days, active enrichment, flea removal treatments and of course loving affection. I provided basic needs such as food, water, and cleanliness. I'm currently a full-time college student with great availability! Pet care is just like second nature to me as I grew up with three dogs, and even own a crested gecko. I'm an early riser, love to be active and fit, love to be around nature and stay cozy inside. My busiest days are Tuesday and Thursday, only one lecture on Mondays and Wednesdays, and the rest of the week is completely free. I am in a fairly well sized studio apartment with a gated area of grass! Currently my only pet is a crested gecko who is in a terrarium and does not make too much noise nor poses a concern. Clients are free to sleep on my bed, and get the utmost affection from me. Staying actively enriched is important, so many toys, simple training, and walks are provided!
About: I’m an auntie to my sister’s seven-year old pup, Sansa. I love to stay at home or go for walks, and would love for your pup to join me! I work remotely four days a week and am home often. I have a lot of time during the day to play with your cat or pup🐱🐶 I’m very flexible and can work with your schedule! I have an apartment on the second floor with lots of space for your cat or pup to roam. I’m very good at reading energy, so will adjust to your pet’s needs to give them attention or space.
“Anna is simply wonderful! She took excellent care of our kitty while we were away. Our cat can be a bit sassy and isn’t always friendly with new people—it usually takes her a long time to warm up to someone. Anna somehow knew exactly how to approach her gently and patiently. She even brought a toy of her own and spent time trying to play with our cat (something we never asked or expected). It was so heartwarming to see our kitty gradually get more comfortable with her. Anna sent us thoughtful daily updates with texts, photos, and videos so we always knew how things were going. She also paid close attention to even small changes in our cat’s behavior, which meant a lot to us. Anna didn’t just follow the care instructions—she truly cared for our kitty. We highly recommend her and will definitely ask her to look after our cat again the next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you, Anna!”

Amber was so helpful and thorough while I was away. I have a sickly boy and she made sure to ask all the right questions to support him. She was able to administer all of the medications for him. I'm very thankful for her expertise as a vet tech and her updates and notes she left me. She gave my cats love and I will definitely be using her again. <3

Verity was amazing. She was very attentive to my very particular requests for caring for my cat Jeff while I was gone. She took lots of photos of everything she did during her visit and gave me the most thorough status report of any pet sitter I’ve ever had. She is truly the best and it’s very obvious that she understands and respects how stressful it is to be away from your pet. She even got my boy to snuggle with her. Incredible. He knew he was in good hands. Thank you so much Verity

Jasmine is such a great cat sitter and an amazing and responsible human! She sends great updates and I never have to worry that my two kitties are well cared for! She provides love, and affection and conscientious care every time! Thank you, Jasmine for treating my kitties like family and providing priceless peace of mind whenever I travel. 💕🙏🏼

Mary Beth took excellent care of my senior cat. She was patient with him and ultimately he was able to trust her. She came twice per day and followed the pet care instructions. My cat was well taken care of and he looked good. I would definitely recommend Mary Beth!

We had a wonderful experience with Zeni! She was punctual, friendly, and communicated with us throughout her time dropping in for our two cats. It was clear right away that she loves animals, and we could tell our cats loved her too from the pictures she took every visit. We would happily use Zeni’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you again!!
Misha went above and beyond while caring for our cat Dante! She sent great pics and we could tell she really cares about animals. She was also flexible with us while we vacationed in a national park with limited service and she made sure Dante was taken care of. Highly recommend her for pet sitting and we'll definitely use her again!

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.
