“Katie was amazing. She communicated well which made me comfortable with the care she was giving Chanel while on vacation. My spouse and I both agreed on the great experience.”
“Last minute booking for us and very happy with Ashlyn! She snuggled our kitties like her own and didn’t shy away from our “grinchy” kitty who can be grumpy at times. Great communication and highly recommend! Will book again!”
“Mrs. Bonnie is super Great!!! She takes care of my fur baby while I’m away at work. She always keep me updated on everything that Stormi🐾 does during her stay. Thank you Mrs. Bonnie!”
About: I’m a pet mom currently to two rescue cats, (one is 12 years and one is 2 years old) and one rescue dog (9 years old). I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and have a particular love for rescues. My neighbors cats often sleep over at my house (with their parent’s permission, of course). It’s a zoo but everyone is happy with the arrangement. I look forward to meeting and caring for your babies. I’m a social worker currently taking a break from this important work. I am available to care for your pets at most hours. I can do up to 3 walks a day if needed for your dogs depending on how far away you live from me. My cats each have a litter box of their own which I scoop in the morning and at night. My dog is trained to use puppy pads in emergencies and is walked in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. We have 3 running fountains with drinking water which the cats particularly enjoy.
“Very happy with this service. Made a last minute booking, during the holidays no less. I needed someone who could take care of my kitty with CHF and watch for breathing issues. Everything was fine, but I felt so much better knowing I had someone savvy checking on my sweet girl. Alexis even got her playing and took some super cute pics.”
“Shawna is so caring and helpful. I appreciate the time she took getting to know my cats and interacting with them. I will definitely book her again when I need someone to care for them again!”
“Miss H is just such a joy. She's very accommodating what you ask her to do. She goes over and above! Hope that she's available for the puppies. They really like her and she enjoyed them even though they're big boys she did my being large size.”
“Alex took good care of our cat Tucker and faithfully came daily over several weeks to feed and love on him. She was responsive to requests and helpful in reporting any developments with Tucker or around the house.”
About: 8 years of professional petsitting experience on top of multiple years of pet ownership; includes housesitting, house maintenance, and care of non-traditional pets such as rodents and reptiles. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible and wide open for plenty of time to love on your furry friends. I receive my schedule weeks in advance and am able to prioritize my clients effectively and ensure the highest quality of care. Due to my apartment complex not allowing pets, I care for pets at clients’ homes, whether that’s through pop-in visits to the home or housesitting for the amount of time needed. This ensures that your pets are in an environment that they are comfortable in. I communicate with clients before and throughout the visit to ensure they are kept in the loop while I care for their pets, including photos, and I never hesitate to ask questions if I have any.
About: I should start off by saying I am a true pet lover! I love to work with pet because they are a very special gift to us. Not only do I love pets but the they love me also. Some way some how I feel as if I develop a special love and care for animals. My aunt always contact me to sit with her pets and when it's over they don't want me to leave. I love when pets are happy and excited. I can truly say. when they ate in my care, they will be loved and protected! From feeding to grooming pets, they will always leave my care with a wagging tail and an excitement that will leave the owners speechless. I love it! It's a passion for me! And I'm also in the process of trying to become a Veterinarian hopefully one day I can have my own animal hospital.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
