“Michelle fulfilled all expectations for providing care for our 2 feline babies while we were out of town for the holidays. She was reliable, responsive, caring, and a great communicator. Would book again!”
“Ariela is definitely someone who understands your situation and goes above and beyond to make your your Fur-Babies are comfortable. I love how she communicates with us and she even invited us over to see our fur babies whenever we want. I highly recommend her and definitely will be coming to her whenever I need her !”
“Thanks again for all your help literally herding the cats! I appreciate you taking in the garbage and packages, too! Everyone but Leigh Ann showed up on our first night back, hopefully she'll return sometime today. I loved getting the photos and updates during each of your visits, let me know and see how they were all doing. I will definitely connect again next time we're out of town and need some help with them.”
“We rebooked with Rachel to watch our indoor-outdoor cats for an extended period. She sent great photos/videos and updates letting us know how they were all doing. She's a great caregiver and we can tell how much the cats bond with her when she's there. Rachel takes time to play with them, give them all a little attention and bring fresh water while keeping their litter boxes empty. Thank you so much Rachel!!!”
“Ali came over to feed our indoor/outdoor cats in the mornings and change the water and litter for a week. We have a cat clan, and she gave us updates and photos letting us know who was there and anything else that we might want to know. She brought in some boxes that were delivered while we were gone and cleaned up a gift that one of the 1-y-o boys (likely) had brought into the house. Thank you so much for all of your help!!!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous leaving my fur kids with a stranger. I shouldn't have been though, because Miranda was fantastic! She spent extra time and attention on my shy kitties, and kept me updated with every visit. I will absolutely book with her again.”
“Having Becky drop in was a game changer for our kitties. They were much happier when we returned home after having dedicated attention and playtime every day. She also took great care of our chickens! We will definitely be rebooting if we decide to go out of town again.”
About: I owned dogs for 11 years now. I always had 3-4 dogs at a time, ranging from husky, German shepherd, Maltese, poodle and French bulldog. Had cats, bearded dragon, and snakes. I am working part-time and trying to transition out of my current job and doing pet sitting full time, so I will dedicate all my time to pet care. I am an animal lover. Dogs cats reptiles, always treated them with respect and will give lots of love! I will end up being one of their new favorite humans.
“Tristen did a great job keeping Ms. Allie. She is known for hiding. She found a hiding place underneath Kristen's bed but she her space and she could see the food and water. After she received a treat and everything was good. Kristen sent clips show she was petting her. I will use Kristen again for Mrs Allie. I got a chance to relax on my trip and not worry about Ms. Allie.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats through personal, volunteer, and pet sitting experience. I currently have a 10-month-old puppy that I’ve raised and trained since puppyhood, giving me hands-on experience with young dogs, routines, and daily care. Throughout high school and college, I regularly volunteered at local animal shelters, helping care for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I also walked dogs during college and frequently pet sit for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, and overnight care. I’m very comfortable around animals and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule around my part-time job and love making time to care for pets! I’m usually available in the mornings and afternoons before 3 for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m very dependable, easy to communicate with, and always happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I always treat each home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities, and I make sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep them happy and secure. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, safe environment while you’re away, while also keeping your home clean, respected, and well cared for.
“Zoya was so great with my cat Guinness. She was responsive, understanding, and I really appreciated the pictures and detailed description of what she did while checking on him while I was gone. Will definitely be rebooking with her in the future when I go out of town!”
“Lexie was great with my kitty Charlie! She was responsive and not afraid to ask for clarification/questions. Charlie has a great time with her. We cannot recommend Lexie enough and will def rebook with her!”
About: I have practice taking care of an elderly terrier with multiple health conditions. I spent 2 months taking care of a corgi, boarder collie, and two cats. I am currently without work for the summer, so I have nearly open availability. The only days that I may be busy is on Thursdays. I am patient when dealing with all sorts of animals. I have not came across a pet that did not get along with me. I love cuddling and playing with animals.
About: I’ve helped care for neighbors’ and family members’ pets, since I was about 5! I also fostered some adult dogs, who needed some extra love recently. I love caring for animals and learning about their individual ✨ personalities✨ Schedule sometimes varies, but early morning and after 4pm are when I’m typically available. Just let me know if there are specific times, and we can see if we are a good fit! You know your pet the best! Feel free to tell me their routine, any rules they have, to the preferred walk routine, and I’ll be sure to respect those needs!
About: I have had all size dogs since I was 12. I love that they love you unconditionally. I enjoy walking my dogs, and I can't help but laugh when they get the zoomies. I always try to be patient when they are unsure or need to take medicine. I work full time, but I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am available to come to your house to take of your animals needs. Your animal can also come my house for the weekend if needed. Please schedule in advance. I prefer to do a meet and greet, since I also have two rambunctious kids. I have two small sociable dogs that are both fixed. They stay in the kennel when I am at work, but when my husband has a break he will let them out. I have a large backyard that that is fenced in, and my neighborhood has sidewalks to walk dogs. My household is also high energy, but also love snuggle time and belly rubs.
About: I have been a pet sitter for 15 years. I would love to take care of your furry friends! I have 2 dogs that are my babies 💜 Pet sitting is something I enjoy doing on weekends as a way to spend time with animals while helping families feel at ease when they’re away. Because I only take on a limited number of bookings, I’m able to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s sticking to their normal routine, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone. I understand that trusting someone with your pets and your home is a big responsibility. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I will treat them as if they were my own by following their routines, providing plenty of love and attention, and keeping a close eye on their well-being. I am committed to maintaining a safe environment by ensuring doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keeping potentially harmful items out of reach, and communicating promptly if any concerns arise. You can have peace of mind knowing your furry family members will be cared for with patience, compassion, and attention to detail while you’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Jordan, an Arkansas native. I have been watching dogs and cats for over 15 years. This began with just neighbors, family, and friends but due to my love for watching fur babies I have continued to throughout undergrad and I even volunteered weekly at a cat rescue in Albuquerque for 2 years. What sets me apart is my passion for ensuring your fur babies receive the BEST care. Each animal is unique in personality and you can rest assured I will be anticipating their needs throughout a house sit, check in, or walk! I am passionate about ensuring dogs do not walk on asphalt we would not walk barefoot on, ensuring adequate playtime, and taking their time drinking water. If I could be a veterinarian or vet tech I would, but I cannot handle the mental weight that comes with those career fields, so instead, allow me the opportunity to provide your fur babies the very best treatment and trust they are in good hands while you are gone. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of opportunities to play with your fur babies! I am flexible on time a that work better for your babies so their routines stay in tact while you are gone! For my personal care of my own pets, I have a fenced yard, all of my cats are fixed, and I do not let them roam without being on their leash. I take all precautions necessary with my animals AND yours to prevent easily fixed mistakes by just being mindful. Whether it be monitoring hydration, asphalt temperatures, or bathroom changes, I am constantly ensuring I have a full picture of exactly how your fur baby is doing.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood
Rachel watched our indoor/outdoor cats 2x/day while we were out of town for Labor Day weekend. She sent photos and updates letting us know how they were doing, brought in mail and even a food delivery box which she unpacked for us before putting everything into the fridge. She really cares about our pets, it shows and means a lot to us. Thank you!!!
Ashleigh was great! She sent really good and detailed updates about our 3 cats. I loved seeing the photos she took during the visits. She took special care to make sure my shy kitty, Missy, didn’t miss out on food just because she is a little anxious with new people. The pictures she took of her under the bed were so funny 😆 when I got home, the cats were happy and healthy and didn’t seem stressed at all. They give her 5 stars too ❤️
Ariela and her husband Ryan watched our indoor/outdoor cats over the Christmas holiday, sending photos and updates. They fed them daily, cleaned out the litter boxes and refilled the water bowls. Thank you both for spending time over the holiday to take good care of all of them!
Ella did a fantastic job taking care of my kitties over the holidays! She thoroughly read the instructions I left her, paid good attention to detail, and kept the house clean. She even cleaned the sink, which was a pleasant surprise! She managed my cats' different dietary needs, including supplements and loading an automatic feeder, and handled one of the cats puking multiple times like a champ (on Christmas, no less!). She was highly communicative throughout her visits, which I appreciated. She's also a great picture taker! She sent pictures in the Rover Cards that really captured my cats' personalities. That showed me they felt comfortable with her, which made me feel much better about being away. I wholeheartedly recommend Ella as a sitter!
I am so grateful to have found a sitter like Jayce. She accepted my unusual request of watching my pet bunny and she was absolutely amazing with him. She is responsive and professional, and I feel very comfortable with her in our home. She has been great with our dog as well. I highly recommend Jayce if you are looking for someone to take good care of your pet(s).

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 .

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 .
