“I actually needed an unconventional dog related service for my wedding (taking my dog home after the ceremony) and Cory was more than accommodating! He was great with Lola, patient to wait when we were delayed and did everything I asked for. Definitely would hire again if needed.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life, have helped train family pets, and am certified as a Comfort Dog handler. I have watched dogs from the wee size of a Chihuahua to big fluffy Newfoundlands. I love using patience and kindness to ensure your pups safety and well-being. I agrew up with the high energy of Border Collies, both young and older. I have dogsat at someone's house up to 5 dogs at a time, with varying food needs and medications. I try my best to be flexible and up for anything you need to ensure your furry friend is taken care of the same way I would care for my own. From walks, to watching them in my home, I am here to help you remain confident in your dog's care. For boarding, I do have two dogs that live in residence and would be available for a meet and greet prior to booking. I work a hybrid schedule, so some days I am fully working from home and other days I am in the office and usually pop home in the early afternoon to let my dogs out and finish the day working from home. Dogs get fed before I start work and dinner when I finish. If I work from home I usually take a break outside at some point to play with the pups and after work we can do walks or dog park or hanging out in the yard. I have a fenced yard and two other pups in the home who are relatively chill. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and get lots of snuggles. My own dogs are crate-trained but rarely use them. They are often left on the living room couch when I leave, with a baby gate keeping them in. Can use crates if needed, I own a size small and a size large. My dogs are 25 and 12 pounds. The smaller of the two is a rescue and is extremely chill and friendly to all other dogs. The bigger dog can be sensitive with other dogs sniffing his butt but the most he does is bark at them to move away. He usually minds his own space and doesn't play with other dogs much but also doesn't bother them.
“Elba was amazing. We have 2 cats who both need medication, and one is a little spitfire. She was reliable and managed to give the cats their meds twice a day as we asked! Her pictures were wonderful too.”
“Great service with lots of good details in her report to let you know how your pets are doing! We have a very mean cat and Stephanie still gave her attention and played with her. We've booked her twice now and highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life and have had my own since I was 10, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve also taken care of friends’ dogs, gaining hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with both big and small dogs, including those who may be anxious or need a little extra patience. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and at ease while they’re in my care :) I’m available throughout the week and work remotely, which allows me to easily adjust my schedule for walks, potty breaks, and attention. I currently have a dog, so I only accept friendly dogs. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable and part of the routine. I follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. Since I have a dog, I make sure all pets are properly introduced and only accept dogs that are friendly with others.
“Blythe is always our go-to sitter! Our pups love her, and we appreciate having someone who we can trust in our home and that we know our pups will be excited to see!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing. She was adaptive to our animals. This was my first rover experience and I wouldn’t think twice of using the service again; hoping for Lauren. She was amazing, responsive and professional!”
“Courtney is awesome!!! My beagle looks forward to her morning with her and they have a great time together!! Initially started with coverage during a hospital stay and turned into a regular routine!! Thank you so much Courtney!”
“We have hired Angela twice, and would love to have her again. We have 2 very shy cats and they actually come out and play with her. Angela is very thorough and gives us updates with pictures during every visit.”
“I wasn't sure what to expect from my two.. but everything was great! I love the pics and the "bathroom" updates. Joe is great with the "big one..Seamus" and the "little one" warmed up after she realized Joe had food...lol!”
“Shawn is a very reliable and wonderful sitter. He spent quality time with our very needy, geriatric cat. We feel so much better that he stops in. We definitely would recommend him,”
About: As a lifelong dog owner, I’ve cared for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities. From playful puppies to senior dogs, I’ve learned how to tune in to their needs and routines. I treat every dog like my own — with patience and love. Animals have always held a special place in my heart. Your furry friend will feel right at home with me. Dog sitting is more than just watching pets — it’s about creating a safe, loving space while their owners are away. I stick to each dog’s routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel calm and cared for. I have open availability during weekdays, making scheduling easy and flexible for you. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In my home, pets have space to relax, play, and feel at ease. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect the space and treat it like my own, making sure your pet is happy, well-fed, and never lonely.
About: I've had cats my entire life. I enjoy being a cat mom. I would care for your cat like they were my own. I'm experienced with giving medications. I'm not able to provide boarding but will come to your home daily. I'll provide fresh water, food, brushing, playtime and cuddles, if that's what your cat enjoys. I can also send photos to you while you're away. Additional items I will handle while cat sitting are bringing mail in and watering plants. I also have experience with small animals such as pet mice, Guinea pigs, and rabbits. I hope you'll consider me to care for your fur babies while you're away. Some of my personal hobbies are : CATS , Geo Caching, nature walks and collecting beach glass.
About: I’ve been doing pet sitting since I was 13, whether it was just stopping by to feed and play with them to spending nights keeping watch on them and my neighbors home. I work part time as a hairdresser in Kenosha so my schedule is very flexible and free to spend time and take good care of your fur babies. I have a 5 month old cat who stays inside my apartment and has plenty of scratching posts and toys. I’m working on getting her to wear a collar just incase she runs out but she seems to know how to take it off herself.
About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and small mammals in my home since I was a kid, so caring for animals truly comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs — a male black Lab and a female Springer Spaniel — I personally potty trained my Springer and taught both dogs general obedience. I also have experience safely introducing new cats to other cats and to dogs, and I understand the importance of slow, structured transitions. I’m attentive to body language, routines, and each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet needs structure, playtime, or cuddles, I treat every animal like my own — with patience, consistency, and lots of love. 🐾💛 I am available to assist with walks or potty breaks on weeknights after I get off work around 5pm. I have more open availability on the weekends, as I am off of work from my regular job. On weekends, I can also assist with overnights at my house on Friday and Saturday or hosting during the day. I provide a safe, loving home environment for your pet while you’re away! We have a fully fenced yard (4-5ishft) for supervised play and hardwood floors for easy cleanup. I have a gentle five-year-old daughter who is very comfortable around animals, and my husband. We have two dogs: a male black lab (not neutered) and a female springer spaniel (spayed). If your pet prefers their own space, my dogs can be kenneled in our finished basement, and kept separate to ensure everyone is comfortable. Pets are welcome to snuggle on the furniture or use a cozy pet bed. I provide food and water bowls — you just supply the food. My goal is to make your pet feel right at home!
“Hannah is fantastic. She comes in at about the same time every day and spends quality time with my cats—she feeds and medicated them. They are old boys now—15 and 16–and they are always well cared for.”

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.
