“Sure! Here’s a smoother version of your review that keeps your kind tone: --- Evan is reliable, communicative, and great with my cats. Pagu and Taro always seem happy and relaxed when we return home. It's such a relief knowing they're in good hands when we're away.”

“Our family had a medical emergency and Summar was flexible and understanding when we needed to change the schedule around slightly! During a very stressful time, it was a relief to know that our cat was in good hands - one less thing for us to worry about. She is dependable, trustworthy, and I think of her like family! Thank you Summar!!!!”

About: Hi! My name is Vana and I am a remote worker in DC. I joined this service for some extra money and to meet and play with people's pets! I've taken care of animals all my life, from cats to dogs to guinea pigs to horses. I cared for/owned horses for four years (no big dog is too scary!), have had cats all my life, and had a hyper Aussie and sweet beagle of my own. I can take care of the youngest puppy to the oldest dog and my puppy days certainly hardened me for non-stop playtime and bountiful walks. I know how important pets are to every family and will treat your fur baby as I would my own. If you're interested in dog walking, drop-ins, or house sitting then feel free to message me and we can work something out. Due to my flexible remote/hybrid schedule, I’m available for all-day sitting at your home with frequent potty breaks and walks for a per diem rate, or can do drop-ins throughout the day. I also have overnight availability with advance (3+ days) notice. Thank you! As a hybrid worker, I have a flexible schedule and I am able to schedule my work around pet care. If I house sit then I remain at the house for most of the day and take care of the animals there, making sure to never leave them for more than a few hours. For drop-ins and walking, I make sure to build my daily schedule around those visits. I follow all instructions laid out to me by the owners and make sure the animals get their play while being safe and secure. I make sure to follow potty and food schedules, and ensure dogs get their daily exercise if it’s needed.

About: Lifelong animal lover - raised with a Blue Heeler and have loved dogs (and pets of all kinds) ever since. Bringing that same care and attention to weekend walks, sitting, and drop-ins, for dogs, cats, and beyond I work full-time as a building operations supervisor and I'm also a master's student, so I'm only available for pet care on weekends but during that time, I'm fully dedicated and attentive to your pet's care. Safety and trust are second nature to me; in my full-time role as a building operations supervisor, I'm responsible for the safety and well-being of everyone in the building every day. I bring that same attentiveness and reliability to caring for your pet: keeping a close eye on them, following your instructions closely, and treating their safety as seriously as I do in my professional life. Having grown up with dogs and loved animals my whole life, I understand how important it is to trust the person looking after them.

About: I started caring for pets in college (~2015), I am a 3rd Medical student at PSCOM. I am currently completing a research year at the NIH. Pet care is a great way to raise funds for my education, while doing something I love! I grew up with dogs: chihuahuas, german shepherds, saint bernards, and pitbulls. I have cared for small-to-extra large dogs. Loved each experience! I love to run/walk near-by trails and hikes. If you are comfortable with me taking your pets, I would gladly do so! I always send photo updates. I have two Jack Russel mixes of my own! They had to stay in Pennsylvania with my family, so taking care of your fur-babies will help me feel connected to them. If you want me to house sit, I will be studying most of the time and would appreciate a well-lighted desk and/or kitchen table! Happy to answer any questions. I am an early morning riser, and can fit in a 1-2 mile walk/run (whatever you & your pet are comfortable with) before starting my day at 9am. If the location is near my area, lunch visits to your pets are possible. Afternoon care could start as early as 5pm. I will model my gym & studying routine around whatever routine you & your pet are used to. When we are home our two boys stay inside, they love head pats and jump up for hugs/cuddles. In the summer time we have a fenced backyard patio where they stay during the day. In the winter time, we set up an enclosed area in our basement so they stay warm while we’re at work/school. They are small bodied but take up our queen sized bed!

About: Hi, I’m Andrea! I’ve always loved being around dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, so I make communication a priority by sending regular updates and photos throughout each stay. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I always try to match each dog’s routine and comfort level. Whether your dog loves playtime, long walks, cuddles, or just a calm environment to relax in, I make sure they receive patience, attention, and affection during their stay. My goal is to create a clean, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels at home. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide so your dog receives personalized care every time. I know every pet is different, and I truly enjoy building trust with both pets and owners. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! During my care I schedule specific times for feeding, walking, and play sessions, ensuring that every pet in my care receives consistent attention and affection. Caring for pets in my home involves creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment that caters to their individual needs. I start by designating specific areas for feeding, sleeping, and play to maintain a structured routine. I ensure these spaces are clean, free of hazards, and stocked with toys, bedding, and other essentials.

“Anthony was a phenomenal dog sitter. We needed a reservation with little notice because another sitter backed out on us, and he made sure to make it work, and even came to meet the dogs prior to the first pop in visit. He took care of our dogs' needs in every way we could expect. He kept us informed with any questions or needs. Honestly, he is the best sitter that we have ever had on Rover, and we truly hope that we can book him again in the future! 6/5 stars hands down!”

We hired Daria to help us with our special needs cat while we were away. She was very willing to learn what was needed and our cats loved her. Our cat, Gus, is very nervous around new people- but he took to Daria very quickly and melted into her arms by Day 3- this is a solid recommendation!

Deniz was amazing with Jolie for all 11 visits! Jolie is usually shy, so it meant a lot to see how much she loved her. Deniz kept her on a great routine, played with her a lot, made sure her toys were working, and even cleaned up Jolie's messes, which she totally didn't have to do. The pictures and journal were so sweet, I was excited to read them everyday. She gave me so much peace of mind, and I'd definitely book 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 .

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 .

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
