“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.”
“Here’s a polished Rover review you can use: --- **Review for Rhonda** I cannot recommend Rhonda enough! This was my first time leaving my cat alone, and I had a lot of anxiety about it — but Rhonda was incredibly attentive and reassuring from start to finish. She made sure he had everything he needed, took the time to play with him, and sent lots of photos that really put me at ease. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and attention she gave him. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Emma took excellent care of our cats!!! This is our second time using her and we already have her booked for an extended trip this summer. She has an easy, relaxed, and calming presence. This is a perfect for our slightly anxious cats.”

“Megan was the best first Rover experience I could have asked for! She is self sufficient, caring, and most importantly knows exactly what your pet needs. I took a long trip out of the country, and even though my cat, Violet, has everything she needed- Megan went above and beyond to keep her happy. Sometimes the anxiety of leaving your pet behind is worse than any actual risk of doing so– and Megan managed to make the experience stress free for both myself and for Violet. I will be booking Megan for all my future trips out of town!”

About: I have watched dogs and walked dogs for family friends since I was about 14-15 and have always taken great care of them, making sure they also get to play with me or interact with me before I leave the home. I do competitive horseback riding and have learned how to treat an animal right and take care of one through this. I have watched my grandma's older dog that needs medication 3-4 times a day and I have made sure she's gotten her meds on time every single time. It's the most important thing to me to make sure the animals are happy and content even when their owners aren't home. I work full time, my schedule is monday-friday 9am-6pm with a hour lunch. I am able to do drop ins or walks mid day on my lunch depending on the distance. Since I have experience with horses and farm dogs I feel that I’m great with control when walking, I also enjoy just hanging out with pets even if it’s while watching a movie
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud mom to one high energy dog and two quirky cats, so I understand how important it is to feel confident and be able to trust leaving your furry family in someone else's hands. I strive to be direct and frequent in my communication to ensure that you always feel in the loop and worry-free when you're away. Every pet is unique, and I treat them just like my own - with love, patience, and a consideration for their unique traits. Because I work limited hours from home, I’m able to pop in for visits that fit your pet’s routine, making sure they get the care, play, and companionship they need while you’re away. I am an independently insured pet sitter to help give you peace of mind! For now, I’m offering drop-in visits only, but I make every moment comforting and count so you come home to a happy, cared-for pet. I am always mindful about respecting your space, instructions, and other requests.

I look forward to creating bonds and building relationships with you and your pets! I currently work full time (Sunday-Tuesday) as an LVT. I am available most Thursday-Saturdays to check in on, medicate, walk, and overall take care of your pets. I have a large fenced in yard and a very friendly golden retriever/Irish setter mix who loves meeting other dog friendly dogs. I am also happy to work with dogs and cats that prefer to be in their own element and have all the attention to themselves!
About: I have been walking dogs for several years now, and love running with dogs who need extra exercise! Love playing with and giving care to pups and cats at home also. Currently going to community college and hoping to spend time making sure animals are well taken care of in my free time! I’m currently going to school and have a lot of free time on Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends to spend time with pets! Other days I am able to stop by for shorter amounts of times but I am available most days for at least a short time. I will be able to watch your pets at your home according to their regular schedule so that they are not too thrown off by their owner being gone! Whatever your pets need to feel more normal and at ease during the time you are away, I am confident I can deliver.

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. 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 , 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 .

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.
