“Andrew and Joelle were great, on short notice, and even our shy cats seemed to like them and came out to say hi when they visited. Highly recommended.”
About: As a life-long pet owner I have the experience and patience needed to give your pets the best care and attention no matter their age! I currently am looking for a job but don’t have one yet! As of right now I’m available anytime for your pups. Can’t wait to meet you and you doggies! I usually feed , bath, brush teeth , brush out hair, take them for walks , make sure they have enough play time and obviously lots of cuddles and kisses!!
“Juna continues to take fantastic care of my hound mix! My dog is always happy to see Juna, and I can tell from her consistent communication and her lovely walking/drop-in photos that my dog continues to enjoy Juna's care and company throughout each booking. Juna has proven to be capable and resourceful throughout all of her visits with my dog, and I'm confident she would be the same with yours, too!”
“Kaitlin was an amazing cat sitter! She was very communicative and i felt more than comfortable leaving my cat Lulu in her care. I will definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi! I've had dogs my entire life and have plenty of experience walking and caring for pets. I'm also comfortable caring for cats and will treat your pets with the same love and attention I'd give my own. You can count on me to provide reliable, compassionate care while you're away. I currently work full time, with the flexibility of working from home three days a week. I'm available to care for your pets in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends, and I have additional availability on my work-from-home days to provide extra attention and care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, provide plenty of attention and affection, and make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Leo was absolutely amazing with our bunnies! He sent us updates and pictures and was so sweet and respectful of our space. We will definitely be asking for Leo's help in the future!”
“Chloe was wonderful to my two kitties, making sure to spend time with them alongside feeding/litter help along the way. I really appreciated her daily updates and getting plenty of pics of my babies! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the NW DC area”
“Megan’s done a fantastic job watching my cat Basil for a couple weekends while I’ve been away! She sends detailed updates and photos, is a superb communicator, and makes sure everything is tidy. Basil has always seemed very happy upon my return when Megan’s been watching him!”
“I had a rover that cancelled mid-trip and fortunately Mia was able to take over the booking on only a few hours notice. She was super responsive and punctual and we were able to rest easy knowing our dogs were in good hands.”
“Idit took great care of my kittens and took some super glamorous/cute photos of them to boot! I felt super comfortable with her and came home to two super happy kittens.”
“Kelsey was fabulous. Sent lots of pictures of our cat over the week we were gone. I could tell she was happy to see Kelsey when she stopped by. I would highly recommend Kelsey for any of your pet care needs!”
“Julie has started drop-ins with my pup, Atlas. Atlas seems really happy with how it’s going and I don’t have to worry about her. Julie always sends photos and lets me know how the visit went.”
“Jared was fantastic with our crew! We have a dog and cats who are pretty wary of strangers, but he was so patient and totally respected their boundaries. He eased in slowly and the results were great—everyone was happy and relaxed. The communication was awesome, and we loved getting all the updates. Plus, a huge extra thanks for cleaning up some cat vomit on our bedspread while we were out—definitely went above and beyond!”
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals! I love all animals and will take care of your fur babies like my own! I’m a teacher and work M-F during the school year and am available for overnight stays, before school, or after school. In the summer I am available throughout the day. I am available for overnight stays as requested. I am happy to feed, water, scoop, play, and snuggle with your kitties as much or as little as you prefer.
“Jason was wonderful. He was communicative, went above and beyond (like offering to pick up more food when I miscounted and didn't leave enough cans of food), and was generally lovely to correspond with. Me and my cats wholeheartedly endorse!”
“Olivia was extraordinary. Our dogs had some digestive issues while she was taking care of them and she couldn’t have been more loving and caring toward them. She was communicative and accessible the entire time and went beyond my expectations.”

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.
