“We are so thankful we found Amy and Rover! Amy did an awesome job taking care of our boys, and gave us incredible peace of mind while away. We received excellent photos and multiple updates throughout the day and didn’t worry once about the health and well being of them. Thank you Amy for being a true professional and someone we could rely on! Can’t wait to have you back next time we are heading out of town!”
“My husband and I felt very comfortable with Madison. We have an old dog and a young dog. Difference of night an day. We knew the transition maybe interesting the first day. But both dogs seem to enjoy their time! The safety and their comfortability, is our main concern. Maddy did great! Sent some picks, gave them the respect they needed, even with their differences. Observing our cameras, what we saw and heard, she treated them kindly! Which is always important. We appreciate she lives close too, which is not controlled. But it helps knowing if something happened she can be there quickly. We are talking of utilizing her some more down the road too!”
“Allison does great each time she takes care of my dogs. They went to boarding & 1 was sad and a little scratched up & she got him feeling better❤️ She is great at communicating & very caring. It’s why we use her over anyone else.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Along with years of pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I worked at Charlotte Animal Care & Control, where I gained experience with just about every kind of personality—from playful puppies to stubborn seniors. I stay calm, patient, and attentive, and I know how important it is to earn both your trust and your pet’s. My goal is simple: happy pets, stress-free owners, and plenty of tail wags along the way Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule and make it a priority to give every pet the time, attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs and keep your pet happy and on their normal routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments from my time at Charlotte Animal Care & Control, so I’m confident handling a variety of situations while staying calm and attentive. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands.

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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
