“Ivy was fantastic! I appreciated her patience, understanding, and consideration with Aspen. She was kind, thoughtful and careful while Aspen became comfortable with her. Scheduling and coordinating with Ivy was a breeze. She put in time and effort to make the schedule and manage everything through Rover. I'll be using Ivy in the future, without a doubt.”
“Beautiful Soul❤️. Took such good and kind care of our two babies. Communication was always on point! Loved getting to know Christy and vacation was so much better knowing she was keeping them safe. She interacted daily and even brought new toys for them to try. You must give her a try. Your cats will thank you! Mine did🥰”

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 13 whether it was my own, friends or family. I love to house sit and spend time with animals, I can feed them, take them on walks, and have play time with them. Im currently getting my brother on/off the bus 8am and 4pm and I am looking for something I enjoy doing to fill in the time I have open and available. How I care for different pets depends on how you want me to take care of them and if there are certain things you do and don't want me to do.
“This was our second time having Stephanie care for our two young cats in our home, and once again she did an amazing job. I felt completely at ease traveling, knowing our cats were in such good hands. Communication was fantastic — I received lots of photos and updates, which was so reassuring. She also went above and beyond by helping me handle a refrigerator issue while we were away. Highly recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sumner
Susan did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were away for two weeks. We came home to clean food, water, and litter spaces and two happy kitties; it was obvious from the pictures that she spent quality time playing with them and petting them. Susan went above and beyond to make sure the cats were well-cared for in our absence.
Nikki was great with our kitties. Even the most shy kitties came out for her! She was also able to give our most stubborn kitty his medicine. It was such a relief knowing our kitties were being well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be asking her to come back.
Natane took such great care of our cat while we were away, Nugget absolutely LOVED her and all the playing/snuggles from her daily. She even went above and beyond cleaning up his messes, the litter box, and took out our trash in the kitchen! We couldn’t recommend her more. We will be returning clients!

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
