“Laura did amazing with my boys and was very communicative and kind. She made the whole experience stress and worry free and I’m looking forward to being able to book with her in the future.”
“Amazing in every way I can think of, and far exceeded my expectations. This was my first time using Rover and I cannot think of a better sitter to have gotten than Kelli. From the attention she gave my cat Skye, to all the pictures she took of him and the respect and care she showed for my home. It felt like family watching the pets and I couldn’t ask for more.”
“Kayley was amazing during the entire process. She communicated thoroughly was quick to respond and I felt comforted and at ease knowing she was looking after my kitties. She was so helpful and kind and I will definitely rebook in the future!”
“She was an absolute gem while watching my cats during my recent trip. From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding she sent the sweetest little prompts and cute photo updates that made me feel so connected and reassured while I was away. Seeing my kitty happily playing, lounging in her favorite spots, and clearly well cared for in those pictures was such a relief and honestly made my vacation even better. She did a fantastic job my cat was happy, healthy, and well fed when I returned. Even though I completely forgot to tell her where the extra kitty litter was stored (total brain fart on my part!), she handled everything with such grace and resourcefulness. That level of sweetness and professionalism really stood out to me. If you’re looking for a caring, attentive, and genuinely awesome cat sitter, look no further. Adaline is the real deal I’ll definitely be booking her again for future trips! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Excellent Pet Sitter!! My cats are a bit particular but they both absolutely love her!! She’s very attentive and knowledgeable. She makes going on vacation less stressful because she takes such good care of them.”
“Annmarie stayed with my 3 cats (one of which is seriously ill) for 5 days. She administered medication, fed them, played with them and cleaned up after them. She sent pictures and updates multiple times. My house was clean and today when I got home, and most importantly, my cats were healthy and happy. I would absolutely use Annmarie again; she was great!”
“Yvonne took care of my beloved cat with such love and compassion. She sent photos and answered all my questions on a daily basis. I will definitely be asking her to care for Muffin in the future!”
“I was looking for someone who could give my cat his medicine and keep an eye on him incase he was in need of anything. Jenna was awesome and I can't wait to have her come cat sit again. Thank you Jenna!”
“Johanna is an excellent housesitter and pet sitter. She goes above and beyond with our elderly cat. On our most recent trip, she also had to deal with a non-pet emergency at our house, and she took care of it competently. Highly recommended!”
“Kaci is so amazing in every way, I can tell she really cares about my home and all my babies well-being. It's so nice to not have to worry about my senior cat that needs medication. She will be my go-to for every sitting job for as long as she'll have me!”
“Samantha did a great job dropping in on our two cats. I was able to enjoy my trip so much better knowing the cats were in good hands. She sent tons of photos every day and spent quality time playing with them.”
“Lizzie was great at keeping us updated when she checked on our cats and provided a lot of photos of them. She also didn’t just feed them, Lizzie would play with them using their toys which I really appreciated.”
“Hannah did a fantastic job looking after our kitties while we were on vacation. Very good communication, and all the fuzzy ones were doing well when we came home. Definitely a keeper!”
“I loved having Lisa watch Crosby. Most recently I had to l ave him while I had surgery and I never worried one bit about him. Her gentle manner always comes through and I know Crosby is safe.”

Helena provides excellent service!! I couldn't be happier with her dedication, detailed attention and communication while I'm away. Over the last few years she has taken wonderful care of my adult cats. Now that they have passed, I have 2 new very young kittens so I relied completely on her for the special attention my kittens needed. I give her the highest recommendation.
This was our first time using Rover and I am very pleased. Allison did an amazing job taking care of my two cats. She communicated well with me and even cleaned up after their messes. I feel more at ease knowing that I can trust the care of my cats when needed again in the future.
Matthew was great! He was consistent and reliable. He seems to really love pet sitting, and was a great match for our dog. My dog FlapJack loves to walk fast and sniff everything, and Matthew was happy to accommodate that. He is also flexible and communicative. My flights got delayed and I was worried about modifying our booking last minute, but he walked me through it and was happy to help us out a few more days. I plan to book with Matthew 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.

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 .
