“After our first round with Lauren and Wynn, it was the first time in years our elder cat didn’t have a UTI after a sitter. Pictures always show how much our cats enjoy this duo but us not coming home to a sick cat really tells the story. Happy to have this duo caring for our kitties!”
“Allie was so sweet and wonderful to my cats! I came back today and they were both happy and didn’t seem stressed at all about me being gone! :) I will definitely rebook in the future!”
About: I have taken care of my friend's dogs off and on for a few years, and I have found I excel at taking care of pets, the way owners take care of their own! I work from home and I'm able to give your dog my full attention. I work from home, so I am able to give give full attention to your pet as needed! My weekends are pretty quiet, But I do sometimes go out to play shows on the weekends. I'm fully capable of taking the dog out, feeding, walking, and other tasks as instructed. I'm unable to wash, groom, or cut nails. I simply don't have experience in those aspects
“We hired Brendan to stay at our house for our week long trip to watch our Orange Tabby, Popsicle. We had a list of things we wanted him to do on a daily basis for Popsicle and he was diligent in following that list. We received a morning and evening photo and corresponding with Brendan was very easy. Brendan cares deeply for being on time and being responsible and was certainly a professional pet sitter for our cat who we love so much.”
“This was our second time having Nina care for our bunny. Outstanding experience, will continue to rebook her. Her communication is excellent. She took fantastic care of our pet and even alerted us to a home issue and helped to resolve it in our absence. Exceeded expectations!”
About: I am a huge animal lover! I have 10+ years of paid experience pet-sitting, house-sitting, and babysitting! I have been a regular sitter for all types of breeds, ages, and behaviors. I have regular experience with pit bulls, chihuahuas, Great Pyrenees, Great Danes, puppies & seniors! I have recently moved to Cincinnati and looking to build a new client base!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years and have always loved getting to know their unique personalities and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy giving pets the attention, comfort, exercise, and companionship they need. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a work-from-home mom, pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for visits, walks, feedings, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I love having pets as part of my routine and enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their families are away. I care for every pet with patience, love, and attention to their individual routine. In my home, pets have access to an unfenced yard for supervised outdoor time and plenty of room to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep their pet comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Laura was absolutely fantastic! Went totally out of her way to take care of my dog while I was out of town. She is very reliable, great at communication, and took extra special care of her while I was gone. Will definitely use Laura again in the future and highly recommend her to watch your pet!!!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and have had multiple dogs, two cats, and a ball python for over 13 years! In addition to my experience as a pet owner, I have also volunteered at the Cincinnati Zoo in various capacities for 3 years now, where I have learned techniques in animal care relating to a variety of species from mammals to reptiles to birds. I am currently pursuing a degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology with the hope to some day work with animals professionally. I was a member of my high schools zoology and marine biology clubs for all 4 years and also founded a beekeeping club. I am currently a college student looking to pet sit during school breaks. I will be in town and available December 13-31 of this year. I offer free meet and greets and I will not have another job at this time and so can be quite flexible to you/your pets needs. I can come over at regular time frames to walk, provide food and water, play, and spend time with your pet. I also offer overnight stays and can accommodate irregular schedules.
About: Growing up with Steve Irwin as my role model, I have personal experience with pets of many varieties, including cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, crabs, etc. I have professionally worked as a cat sitter for 2 years, as well as experience working in a vet clinic as a receptionist and assistant.

In your home, I will be respectful of the space by keeping it clean, as well as towards your pet!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and I've cared for other people's pets for ten years. Every week I walk dogs and run pet sitting visits around Hyde Park and Oakley, so the routine is second nature: leash clipped, water fresh, doors checked twice. Every pet gets your process, not mine. Tell me about feeding schedules, allergies, food sensitivities, medications, grooming and exercise once, and I follow them to the letter. You get photos and notes after every visit. I'm most available on weekday afternoons and evenings from 3 PM, and on weekends. Mornings fill with regular walking clients, so send your dates early and I'll confirm quickly. Cats are part of my everyday life. When my mother passed, I took in her cats rather than rehome them, and their care opens and closes every day for me. I keep a lab level standard of clean and serious air filtration, so allergens stay low. Healthy diets, food allergy plans, seasonal natural remedies and supplements, dental care and regular checkups are routine in my home. In yours, I follow your rules, lock up behind me, and leave everything as I found it.
“Charlotte was so awesome! She learned how to do Stonks' insulin and gave him a lot of love and attention. When he ended up getting sick, she was extremely communicative and took extra time out of her day to watch him and keep me updated as I made the trek back home. Would absolutely use her again!”
About: My partner works from home and I work part-time, which gives us ample time to bond with our pets and care for other pets. We’ve cared for dogs for friends and family. We offer a spacious backyard provides ample room for playtime and exercise, guaranteeing that your pet stays happy and active. My dog, Meika, adores play sessions with fellow furry friends, and gets along with almost any dog. Your pup will receive the love, attention, and care they deserve in the comfort of our home. Since we work from home, we have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I will make sure to follow your furry friend’s daily schedule of potty breaks, feeding, and bed time. Please let me know if you have any special requests or specific needs. I am very attentive, responsible, respectful, playful, and caring. I will follow your pet’s schedule and give daily updates. Will be happy to accommodate specific requests.
About: I have pet sat for families before, with most pets including their birds. I enjoy meeting and spending time with new animals. I do it on my free time, and even carry around food if I see an animal in need while I'm out and about. Hi! I'm a college student, who adores animals especially kitties! Just looking to spend time with your pets, while also making a little bit of money to help with school. My pets, Lucy my pup and Ash my kitty, are extremely loved and spoiled. They believe they really are little babies, it's adorable. I do lots of research on what is healthy for my pets, best foods, training, behavior patterns, etc.
About: Cat lover and UC PhD student with many years of experience owning and caring for cats (both my own and for friends/family)! I also have 3+ years of experience volunteering at humane societies and shelters. I would love to check in on your cats while you’re out of town or away for the day. In addition to loving my two orange boys every day, I have built them two cat trees, one bridge linking their favorite elevated spaces, and have turned my entire balcony into their own catio. A happy cat is a healthy cat, and I've made sure to do everything in my power to make Louis and Reggie happy. I’m currently a PhD student at UC with no other obligations, and only have 7 hours of classes throughout the week. That means that my schedule is super flexible every day of the week, and I’m always free on weekends! I have two rescue cats at home, so I have a lot of experience socializing with and interacting with shy or overly cautious cats. On the other end of the spectrum, I’d love to play with (and tire out) a hyper cat! I will make sure that your fur babies feel safe and loved, and always have what they need!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood
Devynne is the best! She sits for my parents as well and we are all so lucky to have her care for and love our animals while we are away. She clearly cares for animals deeply and I never had to worry while we were gone. She is kind, communicative, gentle, and patient. Followed instructions to a T and kept us in the loop every step of the way. Took perfect care of our 3 kitties and I can't imagine trusting anyone else now. Amazing pet sitter and a good person. Thank you Devynne! :-)
Mengshu and Thomas took such good care of our kitty this weekend. We came home to a happy, well fed kitty and a neat house. Mengshu and Thomas carefully followed his new feeding plan, including measuring and preparing three different foods - adjusting quickly to a last minute feeding change prescribed by our vet. Mengshu likes to take pictures - and sent lovely albums of photos as Dusty ate, played and enjoyed their petting and brushing sessions. They also sent detailed written reports of their actions and Dusty’s reactions. Mengshu and Thomas are not only skilled and efficient pet sitters, who go above and beyond, but caring people who obviously love animals. Dusty and we, his pet parents, look forward to using their kind services in the future.
She always does an incredible job and has usually even stayed a little extra time for drop ins which is just above and beyond. I know she makes sure each cat gets attention according to their own personality and what they like, and she always remembers their quirks! She is super flexible when I’ve had a last minute change or weird circumstance and I do appreciate her.

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.
