“We had such a great experience with our cat sitter! She took wonderful care of Penny and Chance while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were being looked after. Everything went smoothly, the girls were happy and well cared for when we got home, and we’d absolutely trust her to watch them again. Highly recommend! 🐾🤍”


“Chastity was amazing and I would recommend her highly. She helped us with drop in visits over 3 days on short notice and the dogs loved her. She spent extra time sitting and playing with them making them feel loved. They were definitely in good hands.”

About: I have always had animals of some sort. I have experience with dogs/cats mainly. I enjoy feeding, walking, cleaning, trimming nails, giving meds, and ofcourse spoiling. I am available all week, and some wkends. I'm interested in making some extra $ while doing something fun and helpful. I have the time and love to give.

“Bailey was great to work with. Very personable, prompt and really treated Daisy well. She came out early to meet her and see our set up. We full time in an RV and that did not seem to bother her at all.”

About: I have been in the vet field for 12 years and a registered Veterinarian Technician for 6 of those. I have a special place in my heart for senior and special needs pets. I currently have 5 dogs that are all older and been taken in when their owners could no longer care for them. Me and my family will treat your fur baby as our own. Truly a home away from home. I am currently only working 2 days a week so my schedule if very flexible. Other than those 2 days I am a stay at home mom. I have a fenced in yard and other dogs to keep yours company. My dogs are older, so not hyper and usually calm, unless it’s time for dinner :) I have 2 levels to my home so we can rotate dogs as needed for individual play time or cuddles. We also have the available set up and space to keep your dog separate if they prefer to be away from children. If your dog prefers be the only dog or need some alone/down time, we can make that happen too.

Currently doing remote college so I’m available for dog & cat house sitting during the days and nights Friday-Monday. I am available for dog walking and drop in visits any day of the week!

I follow your exact feeding, medication, and bedtime schedules to keep your babies anxiety at zero while you are away. I treat your space with the utmost respect. I will keep your home clean, bring in the mail, water plants, and ensure all doors and windows stay securely locked. I also ensure visits and walks are never rushed. I focus on high-quality engagement, whether that means an energetic neighborhood walk with plenty of sniffing and belly rubs.

I will ensure pets have food, water, exercise, and attention, while keeping their environment calm and secure. I treat every pet and home with respect, patience, and care.
“Valerid struck me as quite competent and professional at her first visit. Best of all she seemed to hit it off right away with my cat, Lucille. It was obvious on our return that she'd done everything very well, and the best part was that she sent pictures of a very happy cat, especially of her being "skritched." Lucille can be shy with strangers but she seemed to take to Valerie right away, and that's the best sign. Valerie left the premises neat and tidy, another plus. I definitely would consider Valerie again when we need to go out of towm.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,336 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sophia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

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.
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.
