About: Hi cat parents! I’m your dedicated cat sitter on Rover. I specialize exclusively in cat care and have a cat of my own. My cat, Butter, has asthma and needs inhaled medication every day, so I understand how stressful it can be to leave your cat behind when you’re at work or on vacation. I know the worry that comes with being away from your furry companion. That’s why I decided to become a Rover cat sitter: to help fellow cat parents feel confident that their cats are receiving the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I have a full-time job with a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate your pet’s routine as needed. During my visits, your pet will always have my full attention. Before our first visit, I’d be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet and learn about your pet’s usual routine, personality, preferences, and any special needs. I’ll make sure to follow your instructions carefully so your dog or cat feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll provide fresh food and clean water, keep their area clean, and take care of any pet-related tasks such as scooping the litter box, cleaning bowls, and picking up after your dog. I’ll also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship based on their individual needs. You’ll receive photos and updates during each visit so you can feel reassured that your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety is extremely important to me. Before leaving your home, I’ll make sure doors are securely locked and gates are properly closed so your dog or cat remains safe and secure. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! 🐶🐱❤️
About: I genuinely love animals and have years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once and making sure each one gets plenty of attention, play, exercise, and affection. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like part of the family. My goal is for your pup to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m primarily available during the daytime on weekdays while my son is at school, making walks and drop-in visits a great fit for my schedule. I have some weekend availability as well, depending on the day and time. I’m flexible and happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. My focus is on following your instructions closely, keep your pets safely supervised, and pay attention to their behavior and comfort. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, attention, playtime, and anything else they need during my visit. I’m also respectful of your home and will leave everything just as I found it. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and trust are my top priorities.

“Yilin watched our 3 cats for almost 2 weeks. She did a fantastic job. She arrived on time, took mat pictures and videos of our cats, and brought in packages left for us. She played with the cats and kept their litter and food area very clean. She is very friendly and cared for our babies as if they were her own. I would definitely hire Yilin again the next time we have to travel!”

About: Animals seem to gravitate to me, I have never had an issue befriending a stray dog, cat, or even llama. I’m always that one guy in the room petting the dog. I have a natural knack for animal care as well and spend a lot of time just being friends with my pets. I am currently looking for a part time, flexible job that allows me to be with my family more. Therefore I am currently not working as I look and I am fully available. I have a couple of schedule items that I work around but overall I have a very open schedule that pet care will work wonderfully with. In my home we have more of a relaxed environment. Dogs are allowed to run around the home freely for most hours of the day. Cats are allowed to roam the catio outside freely. No cats are indoors and dogs are let outside twice daily to run and play and a third time just to use the restroom. Dogs and cats are fed twice daily and water is freely available. In a clients home I follow any guidelines they have.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
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.
