“Here’s a polished version of your review that keeps your tone but tightens it up and flows well: Eileen was absolutely wonderful from the very first interaction. She arrived right on time, was incredibly sweet, and my animals took to her immediately. You can genuinely tell she loves what she does, and that gave me confidence right away. I had her do drop-in visits twice a day, and she was consistently punctual. When I returned, my home was clean, and most importantly, my animals were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. She didn’t just handle the basics she took the time to play with them and make sure each one felt loved and comfortable while I was away. Eileen also kept me updated after every visit with photos and detailed report cards, which gave me real peace of mind. Knowing my pets were in such caring hands made being away so much easier. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I currently have a dog and two cats, so I’m experienced with feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, giving them attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ve also cared for my family members’ pets whenever they’ve needed help, so I’m used to looking after both dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and care that I give my own. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to keeping your pets happy while you’re away. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care. I understand how important routines are and will do my best to keep your pet comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Shelby was amazing! always on time, communicative and very responsive. When we came home, Coco seemed genuinely happy. I really appreciated the updates on her eating and all the photos. I felt completely at ease knowing Coco was in such good hands. Thank you, Shelby!”


About: I started keeping cats in 2015, and currently I care for three cats and three dogs. The dogs are small breeds (a Shiba Inu and a Maltese), while the cats are American Shorthairs. My work primarily involves night shifts, so I have plenty of time during the day to play with your pets, look after them, and monitor their health. In China, I gained three years of experience providing in-home care for cats and dogs; I am adept at handling various basic feeding routines as well as unexpected situations.

About: I enjoy dogs, and have worked in a boarding setting. I am playful, loving, energetic, attentive, and am also an early childhood educator! By the time you get home, your dog will be tuckered out and at peace. I am very understanding and patient. I LOVE being outside, so your pup will have the most fun! I am self-employed so my schedule is open in the afternoons or weekends. I used to own a boxer, so I’m familiar with a dog’s routine. Please let me know your requirements or any information that may help care for your pet in the best most efficient and familiar way, so they feel safe and loved while you’re away from them.
About: I'm super patient and I'm very attentive. I just love looking after others in general and I find joy in work like this. I've looked after my sick parents and after my sibling most of my life, I was also one of the eldest kids in my church community so I was depended on to look after them a lot of the times as well. From there I was depended on for other things like looking after the occasional pet by family friends from the church and from my own friends. As of right now regularly help take care of my girlfriend's little Pomeranian and I love him. Right now, all I am is a full-time student so other than my classes I have very little commitment and will be free for most requests. Even if my schedule overlaps I also have a very flexible schedule so I don't have to consider if I'm free too much. When with a pet, I am not just physically present but mentally too, ready to anticipate any need and determine how to satisfy it. Always ready to look out for any potential danger and on my toes to be ready to deal with anything if needed.
About: I work from home so I’ll be here to provide a safe and loving home for your pet. I have experience in a variety of pets ranging from small to large dogs/puppies, kittens/cats, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters and fish since I was a child. I have experience in pet boardings, drop-ins, sitting and walks. I love having animals around and will always help one if needed. I will provide the love and care needed while you are away and do my best to meet the needs of your baby. I have a large fenced backyard giving them plenty of space to play. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. My routine for pet care would be to take out the animals first to use the restroom, feed them as instructed, take them out for walks, and take them to use the restroom. I pay attention to my animals and others needs throughout the day to provide the best comfort. I pay close attention to the weather when walking my pets and others. My home provides a large backyard with a brick wall with lots of room to run and play. Your pet will sleep inside the house anywhere they feel comfortable. You can bring their favorite toys and any bedding that helps them feel more secure away from home. I’m home mostly 24 hours a day except to run an errand here and there so your pet will not be alone in case they have separation anxiety. You can also reach out to me anytime you want assurances. If you want to just have your pet sat for the day or multiple days just let me know. When I care for animals at my clients home I follow the instructions given closely, monitor any changes in your pets behavior, and be respectful of your home.

We love Tina! It is hard to find a good cat sitter, so I am so grateful we found Tina! She is so great with cats and is always great at responding to any concerns I have. She really makes a point to address any concerns you have and follows up with details and pictures on every visit. Thank you so much for always responding to my last minute requests too!

We had a great experience with Joyce! She provided drop in visits for our kitten. She was very professional, pleasant and communicative. She provided detailed entries during her visits, including photos, which made us feel so at ease. Our kitten had a great time playing with her. I felt very comfortable working with her and will definitely be using her again for future visits!

I've had Michelle take care of my cats, fish, and now seahorses for the 4th time now! She is amazing and takes care of all my husband and I's animals so well! My cats love her and she always sends the most adorable pics of my cats that always make me and my husband smile and laugh 😁😆. Will always be using her as our pet sitter for the long term! 😻 thanks again Michelle!

I couldn’t be happier with the care provided! All three of my cats were clearly well looked after and comfortable. The sitter followed all my instructions perfectly, gave them playtime, and even took the time to share detailed updates and adorable photos. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I especially appreciated her attentiveness,she noticed everything, including when Tobi had a little upset tummy, and handled it so thoughtfully. I’ll definitely be booking her again for future drop-in visits. Highly recommend!

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.

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.

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 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.
