“Since I am retired, my two cats are accustomed to me being at home most of the time, so I was a reluctant to leave them alone for ten days with a pet sitter just coming in a couple times a day to feed them. So, Mary S. was a house sitter as well as a pet sitter while I was gone. Both cats were very content upon my return, which I attribute to the care and attention they received from Mary S. I recommend her highly and would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“Craig was so kind and dependable with his care of my little Gunny. His daily feedback on how things were at home brought me a lot of peace. I was so happy gunny had a loving caregiver to play with while I was away.”
“Sue did a wonderful job taking care of my two foster kitties! This was the first time I’ve left them in another’s care, and I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver. Sue was very attentive to their needs and spent quality time with them, playing with them and helping them get used to another person. She definitely helped in bringing my shy one out of her shell a bit! I would not hesitate to book Sue again and highly recommend her as a Rover pet sitter!”
“I knew I chose the right person to watch my cat when I met Julia. She is kind and very responsive. She showed a great deal of love and care for my cat. I will certainly use her again for future sittings.”
About: The house I grew up in always had dogs around, we used to train them for shows so I have an idea of how to keep pets safe and out of trouble, I have experience with dogs as tiny as a dachshund and as big as a boston mastiff so i’m prepared for anything. I am currently a student at HGTC working on getting my degree in ultrasound tech. I also work part time at the Applebee’s as a server. While all that seems like a lot I actually do get more free time then I expected and I would love to spend that time watching your pets. I like to treat every animal as if it was my own, giving them the same love and respect I would my pets. Whatever you decide is best for how you would like me to watch your animals is how I will do it, it takes a lot of trust to find a sitter so it’s important to me that I follow any guidelines given.
About: I am good with any types of animals. cats, dogs, rodents and even lizards! i have a cat of my own but if your pet doesn’t get along with other animals and they are staying at my house it’s alright, i’ll make sure they aren’t kept together and they'll all be safe. My schedule is very flexible so if you need me in a short term notice, I most likely will be able to be there for you! I’m a bit of an introvert with people but I love being with animals, i can take care of any of your animals needs from a strict feeding regimen to taking them out to exercise as many times as need be. Please contact me if interested, you will not be dissatisfied! I am currently fully available anytime from 7am-10pm at night, i can also do overnight if it is house sitting. my schedule is extremely flexible. I have an apartment and two cats so i cannot take big dogs in my home but I can take medium-small dogs! I do have a lot of space in my complex for your pet to run around and play! (due to having cats, i can’t take care of other cats. They don’t seem to mind dogs but other cats do stress them out.)

About: I care for every pet as if they were my own. They will get a lot of attention because I focus on them to learn their behavior, quirks and what they try to relay to me; I’m always watching and listening to them. Many clients have told me they tell their pets that I will be coming and they get super excited. I’ve been told they see a difference in them when I do a drop in visit to break up their day.

“Nicol was amazing! Our dog has some medical issues and Nicol was so kind to him and followed our instructions to the letter. You can tell how much she loves dogs and she was not at all intimidated by his health needs. We felt very comfortable having him in her care. She even sent us photos and updates while she walked him. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for a beloved furry friend ❤️”
“Jayda watched our three kittens for several days in our home. She was absolutely wonderful! While our two girl kittens are quite social by nature, our little male is relatively shy. The first night he was hiding under the bed in the master bedroom and refused to come out. By the end of her stay they were all sleeping with her in the guest room. She sent us photos of them daily, adhered to their feeding schedule, kept the litter boxes scooped, and kept the entire house in order. We are very grateful for her meticulous care. It definitely put our minds at ease since we were five hundred miles away.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Surfside Beach
Amanda was fantastic! She was super helpful at a sort of short term notice. She took the absolute best care and she must have the best camera skills because the photos were amazing. She even brought them toys which they loved and left a sweet note. I absolutely recommend her as your next pet sitter!
I highly recommend Mary! She did daily drop-in check-ins for my four cats over a three-day period, and she was absolutely wonderful. My cats are incredibly high-maintenance and very picky eaters, so I am always a bit anxious leaving them. Mary handled their specific routines perfectly and made sure everyone ate well. It gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely be booking her 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 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.

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.
