“Rhonda is awesome! She was super flexible with booking, and sent me lots of pics/updates on my cats. My cats are my babies, and I know I left them in good hands. Would definitely book again.”
About: I've always had dogs in my life, primarily large breeds, and currently own three dogs and three cats. I helped raise a litter of seven puppies from birth to 12 weeks, giving me extensive experience with puppy care and development. I've also dog-sat for family friends many times and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so both you and your pet can feel at ease. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work freelance for a marketing agency from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship. I also stream online and bartend one evening per week, but my schedule allows me to be available throughout the day and accommodate most pet care needs. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routines and making sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Since I only offer care in clients' homes, my goal is to keep your pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine in a familiar environment. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication administration (if needed), playtime, and any special care requirements. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and routine. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active play, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I make sure they receive the attention and care they need while you're away. I also respect and care for your home as if it were my own, keeping things clean, secure, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're gone.
“Lindsay was so great with my cat and dog! She gave them lots of attention and helped look after them (litter box, food, water, bathroom break etc!) She was also very communicative as well as friendly. I appreciate her helping us out the last two days and will definitely be asking her to come back.”
“This is our first Rover experience and it went very well. Christyna looked after our cat for a week. She helped brush our cat’s teeth, wrote up detailed Rover card, and took good pictures. Will definitely rebook if we are out of town again.”
“Kristen was very reliable and responsive to all our requests. She gave our senior cat a lot of care and attention. She communicated well about her visits and how are cat was doing. We knew our cat was being well taken care of by her.”
“Taylor is fantastic with our dog! She takes great care of her, is on time and communicates clearly about her visits! Cheez is always happy and calm when we come home from her time with Taylor and we love that we have someone we can trust to care for her while we’re away!”
“Julie is amazing!! It's so hard to find someone to trust with your pets, but Julie makes it easy. She took great care of my Princess, I will absolutely be using her again in the future ❤️”
About: I love animals, especially dogs. They bring me joy and I wish to keep them safe and sound for you. They are my family too Currently working Mon- Friday 8-5pm, willing to do weekends and if necessary, weekdays but please contact ahead of time as I work 30 mins away.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets and a genuine love for animals of all kinds.

Having a dog and cats of my own I am very familiar with crate and potty training, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, comfort, overall training and care.
“Josh was a fantastic sitter, and we had a great experience with him. He did drop-in visit and then house sat for us and took excellent care of our cat. What really stood out was how quickly he bonded with our cat who is shy and usually hides from people. Josh was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable around animals. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and a house that was just as we left it. Overall, Josh did a wonderful job, and we would definitely hire him again in the future!”
“It was my first time experience using Rover to find a pet sitter to visit my cat while I'm on vacation. And I'm very happy that I found Hannah. She is an amazing person and a great communicator. She explained everything, came for a meet and greet visit and kept me updated on a daily basis. I felt at ease while on vacation knowing that my cat is well taken care of by Hannah. I will definitely use Hannah's assistant again and highly recommended her as a reliable pet sitter who takes a great care of pets.”
“Bella is so kind and easy to get a long with! One of our dogs has medical needs and the other requires some patience and she took such care of our girls. So communicative and friendly, felt so comfortable having her stay and will continue to work with her!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 10. Friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and give plenty of love to their pets.

About: Skill and ability with empathy to take care of cherished companions. The care and service given is a reflection of my ability to go above and beyond as needed for animals and people alike. In my excess time, morning, evenings and afternoon I’m happy to help with the needs of clients pets as the needs arise, I know how stressful it can be to not have help when you need it. Allow me to take some of the weight off and help you and your pet thrive. I have to cats currently, 2, both rescues who are inside cats and loved on throughout everyday.

She even took notes to be sure. She was very patient with our cat and didn’t pressure her to open up which I really appreciate!”

Christyna is so amazing!! She is such an animal lover and has such great experience, she had wonderful communication and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was taking care of my kitties especially the one who needed medicine, she was so incredible I’d definitely recommend and use again!
Hannah was wonderful for our two 6yo cats. One needed some minor topical meds and she was able to handle it without issues. Received the cutest updates and truly helped put us at ease on our work trip. The boys seemed way less stressed than they normally would be if we went out of town, she did a great job of giving them some much needed attention - would absolutely book her again!
Josh was a fantastic sitter, and we had a great experience with him. He did drop-in visit and then house sat for us and took excellent care of our cat. What really stood out was how quickly he bonded with our cat who is shy and usually hides from people. Josh was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable around animals. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and a house that was just as we left it. Overall, Josh did a wonderful job, and we would definitely hire him again in the future!
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with my cat sitter! I have three cats, and they all warmed up to her so quickly — which says a lot because they don’t always trust new people. She clearly has a natural way with animals and made them feel comfortable right away. She spent a lot of quality time with them during each visit, not just the basics. I could tell they were happy and relaxed in all the updates she sent. She was amazing about communication! I received regular messages, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Everything was spotless when I returned — litter boxes were cleaned, and everything was exactly as it should be. It’s such a relief knowing my cats were so well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring sitter. I will absolutely be booking her again! 🐱💛
Sydney was awsome! She responded immediately to my inquiry on short notice. She was very accomodating with her schedule to meet our elderly kitty and get the information and special instructions she needed to take good care of him while we were away. Sydney sent us pictures and responded immediately to my text messages. I felt confidient he was well cared for. Will definintley contact Syndney again!

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.

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.
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.
