“Nicole was extremely reliable and professional and I will definitely reach out to her again next time I need cat sitter. My elderly cat is sweet, but also a bit moody at times, and Nicole did an amazing job at helping my cat naturally come out of her shell and feel safe. The photo updates Nicole sent were also great and really set my mind at ease.”

“Amber was very professional and communicative. I really appreciated her daily updates about my cat. Additionally, Amber was extremely personable. I highly recommend.”

“Becca is absolutely wonderful! She was so incredibly sweet with our puppy and gave her the best care. She is detailed, professional, and thoughtful — the perfect combination for us, as new puppy owners and first-time Rover users. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”


“It was great having Kaylee look after our cats while we were out of town. We had special requirements as we have two young kitties who were needed to keep separated in a different part of the house from an older cat as the kittens had not yet been fully vaccinated. The kittens got into mischief and made a mess. Kaylee cleaned it up. She vacuumed up stray cat litter too. The older cat is an indoor/outdoor cat who loves to be outside during warmer months and can be very demanding requesting to go out. No escape artists were witnessed. :-) I would not hesitate in book her again when needs arise.”

“Ashley was very attentive and great in communicating and keeping us updated with the walks and check ins while we were away. They were well care for and left us at ease. The doggie report card and updates were very positive.”

“Michelle was awesome! We were very satisfied the care and attention that Michelle showed to our 3 cats while we were away. One of our cats is almost 18 and has health problems and we were worried about leaving him. In addition to feeding and cleaning litter boxes, Michelle gave our elderly cat medication, cleaned up all manner of messes every day, and also gave all the cats treats and affection. The reports and pictures she sent gave us peace of mind while we were away, and we felt our cats were in good hands. We highly recommend Michelle!”

As a pet parent myself I understand the need for wanting to get your babies to the bathroom and have someone to be with them if youre gone for more than you want to be so I can always try to work something into the schedule to take care of them. I play with my dogs outside and take them for multiple walks daily. One of them loves to play fetch nonstop and the other loves to be chased so we cater to each of their playtimes individually. My older dog is adopted and I have been working diligently with him as he attention barked nonstop when we first got him and now he rarely does. I understand the individuality of pets and how each pet has different needs and desires. My cat is a big cuddler as well so I'm always hanging around her when its food time and cuddling her whenever I get the chance so she never feels left out

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Spencer choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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 .
