“This was the first time we’ve had the pleasure of having Sarah take care of Wally and Meeko. It definitely won’t be the last. Wally, my shy guy, warmed up to her so fast! And Meeko was showing off. Sarah was wonderful with such fun pictures and very attentive to my babies. Highly recommend!”
“Alexis took great care of our dogs while we were away for the holidays! They seemed to really enjoy her care and company, and she went the extra mile making sure they had everything they needed. She was also very communicative and kept us informed at all times. 10/10, would book again.”
“Jenna is the best of the best! She treats the animals in her care like they are her own. I have one very outgoing and energetic pup and Jenna makes sure she gets all of her wiggles out while she is there. My older female is scared of everything, and Jenna takes the time to make sure she is comfortable during the visit. We are so lucky to have Jenna be part of our pack!”
“Callie always takes the best care of our kitties! Our geriatric had special med and food needs, and Callie is great with her! We don’t worry that both are getting the best care!”
“Ashleigh was great! Our babies were very well taken care of, she sent pictures each visit, had great communication and we felt completely comfortable with her watching our pups”
About: I absolutely love animals. I've had dogs and cats since I was 6. Since then I've help train a service dog and fostered many other dogs. I currently have three dogs: chihuahua mix, pug rat terrier mix, and a great Pyrenees. I currently am a personal trainer so I don’t have a set schedule. I will be able to let the pet outside or spend time with them in between clients. I can take the pets on daily walks, depending on their schedule and when they like to. I like to know where the food is and if they get treats for doing specific things.
“Sarah was amazing! I received the sweetest pictures of my cats each visit! My male cat needs twice daily insulin shots and Sarah had no trouble at all. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter instead of boarding her. Emma met with Daisy Mae a couple of times before we needed her to drop by. This helped with Daisy Mae's transition to visits. We were impressed with Emma's detailed reports and photos while we were away. We were comfortable with Emma. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had many types of animals (farm, big, small, etc) my whole life as well as the ambition to be a veterinarian. I have basic husbandry and veterinary skills and knowledge. I am currently a senior in highschool and end class at 2:10. I am free weekends and open to caring for new types of pets! My animals are vetted and chipped, the cats are indoor outdoor an i have an 18 year old dachshund who is blind and deaf due to age, as well as a 3 year old deaf Australian shepherd who is trained using a Bluetooth buzz collar.
“Cat does such a great job dogsitting that our dogs remember her! I deeply appreciate her commitment to her clients in building relationships with the pups! Even our difficult dog likes her!”
About: I have always grown up with animals and my love for them led me to a job at a pet resort. I was a kennel technician for 4 years which provided me great insight to care for all types of furry friends. I just graduated college from UNC Charlotte and home in Emerald Isle for the summer. Most days I workout and hang with my family so my schedule is pretty flexible. I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they’re used to because I know how stressful change can feel—especially for anxious pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I make it my priority to provide comfort, consistency, and lots of love while they’re away from their parents.
“Sandy took excellent care of our 3 kitties - from feeding them to cleaning the litter boxes ( & any messes they made) and spending time with them. She kept us informed and was very responsive and detailed. We highly, highly recommend her services. She truly loves animals and was a professional through and through. Thank you again, Sandy!”
“Lexi is amazing!! She was super sweet with our old anxious dog and by the end he was whining because he missed her visiting him! Fantastic communication, reports and photos too. Would recommend Lexi in a heartbeat.”
“Wendie and Jenny took incredible care of my two dogs. They communicated with me everyday, sending plenty of photos and updates to give me peace of mind while I was away. My dogs loved being in their care and I will hire them again the next time I need a pet sitter. Highly recommended :)”
About: Hi I’m Jastin! I’m 20 years old and I’ve been around and taken care of animals all my life. I have a heart for pets of all kinds, particularly dogs! I worked as a kennel attendant in Waxhaw, NC for almost two years. I have two pets of my own, a dog - Willow, and a cat - Maple. They are very dear to me and I would love to meet your pets and treat them as well as my own! I recently moved to Hubert, NC and work as a Vet Assistant in Jacksonville, NC. I work Monday- Friday, 8-5 so unfortunately I only have weekend (Friday evening - Sunday evening) availability as of now. I find it easier for me as well as your pet to care for them in the comfort of their own home. Your pets happiness and safety is always my top priority!
“We are on vacation in an unfamiliar house with an aging, mobility challenged dog so had lots of complicated instructions for Abbey and she did a fabulous job. She even made a practical suggestion for the second visit of the day which made life easier for us and our dog happy. We will certainly specifically look for her again when we visit Emerald Isle.”
About: I have taking care of my neighbors and friends animals since I was 12 or 13 . I would watch them when they go out of town. I am a full-time hairstylist, but I am available on Mondays Sundays and Fridays. , Possibly Tuesdays since I have shorter days . I have half days on Saturdays. I can work whatever is needed into my routine. I just need to know schedule ahead of time. For my own pet I give him loves and play with him every, also provide him with new scratchers and toys monthly .In a clients home I am very quick to learn anything I need to do to make the pet feel comfortable if they pet is unsure about new people I will take the time to let them get used to me until they are comfortable.

Ashleigh went above and beyond with our fur babies! We have 3 rescues, all with different personalities and issues. She even had success with my overly anxious, fearful girl with severe separation anxiety! Ashleigh is a true professional and must be a dog whisperer! 😊 She understood my directions regarding each dog’s unique personalities and tips to help with each one and did an awesome job! Her communications are prompt, detailed and friendly! We definitely recommend her and will use 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
