“Jaylene took wonderful care of our boys while we were away. She did an excellent job sorting out the different schedules and behaviors of our very different cats. She made sure the litter boxes were clean and even vacuumed up the litter that was on the floor near the boxes. We received lots of cute photos of the boys and prompt texts with updates. We were able to enjoy our time away with the knowledge our babies were in good hands!”
“This is our second time using Hannah and she was great! My cats go to her with no problem. My one cat needs medicine. He is comfortable with her and allows her to give it to him. My mind is at ease knowing that she's taking such good care of them. I already told her that i want to use her for our vacation in August!”
“Cassandra was excellent. This was my first time using rover and she made everything go so seamlessly. She sent lots of pictures and updates which was greatly appreciated. Definitely recommend her!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with my cat Luna. She checked in each day and took time to play with Luna and keep her entertained. She sent many pictures and my cat loved her! Thank you!”
“would like to sincerely thank Kathryn for the wonderful care she has given to Rocky Duke and for overseeing Blair. She is a genuinely caring, trustworthy, and dependable person who always goes above and beyond. Knowing they were in her care gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking for someone compassionate, reliable, and dedicated. Thank you, Kathryn, for everything you did for my babies.”

“I get a bit overwhelmed when I read reviews. After a while I’m more unsure then I was before the feedback over saturation. I’m going to just say it simply…Lana is fantastic and I hope she never leaves Rover or moves away! I trust her completely and she’s great with our pets.”
About: Taken care of my own cats for 6 years. Work at a shelter caring for different breeds of cats. Attentive to the needs of cats. Daytime hours are best and weekend hours are available. Many flexbile time slots throughout the day, especially if short blocks of time are also needed. I follow all directions from clients, very cognizant of locating any potential dangers to safeguard the animal. Punctual with time sensitive activities and needs of the animals.
About: I’ll take care of your beloved pet as if they were my own — with love, kindness and patience. Most of all, I will be sensitive to their needs and limitations (i.e. making sure pavement is not too hot, monitoring them for cold/ heat exposure, etc.) I will make time to fit you and your pet's schedule to walk your dog at the optimal time. Flexible with regard to weather, esp. for pets who are sensitive to heat and cold. During each walk I am prepared to keep your pet safe and protect them from other animals and traffic depending on where we walk by carrying bear spray, air horn, head harness, water bowl, or whatever the situation calls for. I also have an access to car pick up if there is an emergency. Ask me about the charity I am donating to, and a promo code to save money on your first booking! I am à school speech therapist and have limited availability. Right now I am willing to take on 1-2 clients per day. If you are able, please request a free trial / meet and greet before your first booking. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or take them to a park for a fun outing! If they are not up to walking on that day, we can just play or smell the grass together! My goal is for your dog to have an immersive, engaging walk so they are can rest when they get home- dog and human together, enjoying outdoors with all 5 senses!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years and have always considered them part of the family. While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I understand the love, patience, attention, and responsibility that comes with caring for someone’s beloved pet. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give to every pet. I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, caring, and treat every pet the way I would want someone to treat mine—with patience, kindness, and plenty of affection. My goal is simple: for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. 🐾❤️ I currently work full time so I am available after 6pm weekdays, and most of the day on weekends to play and care for you fur babies. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routines and the instructions provided by their owners. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised, while giving them plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of every home and treat it with the same care I would want for my own. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: New to Rover, but not new to the world of pet care! I’ve worked with dogs for over 14 years through fostering, pet sitting, dog walking, and volunteer work with animal shelters. I’ve volunteered with shelters for more than 10 years and also have experience helping train service animals, which has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, behavior, and working with dogs of different temperaments and needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from young puppies who need extra structure and attention to senior pets who may need a slower pace, patience, and a little extra care. I love making sure every pet gets the exercise, enrichment, affection, and companionship they need. I truly treat everyone else’s pets as if they were my own, and I’ll always keep you updated with plenty of photos while you’re away. I have a full-time job with flexible hours, which allows me to fit pet care into my schedule consistently. I’m most available on evenings and weekends, and I always make sure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need. I live in a house with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and settle in. I’m very mindful about safety, routines, feeding instructions, and each pet’s individual needs. I also have a friendly 6-year-old cat who is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to use a crate if that is part of your dog’s normal routine, and I always do my best to keep pets feeling safe, relaxed, and at home.
About: For years I have been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family, let me be yours as well! I have had Dogs and Cats my entire life. Growing up we had five cats and a dog all at the same time! Currently a cat dad of two. I am available most weekends and after 5pm weekdays as I work full time as well. I am available most weekends, and am available after 5pm Monday-Friday. I work full time so weekend visits are primarily my focus, but if needed I can do evenings during the week so you can enjoy a date night, events, or whatever else life throws at you I love every animal like it's my own, I am a lover of all animals big and small. I will provide pictures and videos if you'd like to ensure peace of mind that your pets are not only cared for, but are having the best time!
“We couldn't be happier with the care our two cats received from Alissa while we were away. We couldn't believe that she actually saw both cats almost every day as they are notorious for hiding from strangers. We hope to be able to have her again!! Highly, highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been caring for my own animals since childhood and grew up with big dogs. Today I share my life with an 80-pound hound mix and a Velcro cat. I’m naturally empathetic, reliable, and genuinely happiest when caring for animals. Your pets will always have my full attention, and I make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and gentle seniors. I adapt easily to different personalities and routines, whether that means patience, structure, or extra affection. Got a dog who pulls on the leash? I’ve got you. Got a cat who needs a little extra love and reassurance? I’ve got that covered too. I’m here for all your needs. I do work a typical 8-4 job with other hobbies of mine. But I’m open on weekends and nights! Weekends are pretty open both Saturday and Sunday. Nights I’m available for walks and drop ins after 5pm! I have a fenced in yard. However I am going to prefer to come to your house. My dog is a queen and would rather me not bring home dogs. Lol.

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 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
