“We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive. Our cats are typically very anxious and don’t warm up to new people easily, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with them. By the end of our trip, they were comfortable and even snuggly with her, which really says a lot. She treats your pets like her own and consistently goes above and beyond what’s asked. As anxious pet parents, it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She also provided regular, detailed updates, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our pets and will definitely be using her again. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets, understand their quirks, and keep you sane while you’re away—she’s it. 10/10, no notes.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was little my family would rely on me to watch the dogs if they went out of town. I have also fostered litters of kittens and I’ve babysat puppies. And have taken care of sick animals. Im new here please book me!! i’m currently unemployed so I have a very free schedule to come play with your pups!I’m free for boarding any day of the week or weekend I have a fenced yard and two German Shepherd’s that Love going outside all day and I also have cats that are inside outside
About: I have lived with cats my whole life. Yet, since then, I happily decided to adopt my 4 beautiful dogs. I couldn't be happier taking care of them plus my cats. I also babysit 2 of my friends dogs and cats at times. All 5 dogs get along great and they keep each other company when I am here and when I am gone. I have also stayed at a couple people's houses and watched their pets while they were out of town. I am available at different times throughout the day but I can also be available at some nights. I enjoy spending time with animals, playing with them and helping them feel safe and comfortable. The other three days, I feed horses, so I am more limited on what I can do. I hate whenever I see animals that are bored or neglected. I am currently working part-time, but I am perfectly willing to spend what extra time I have taking a dog for a walk or playing catch. Plus, I love taking care of kitties too. I take care of anyone's pets as if they were my own. I want for them to feel as happy, safe and loved as possible.
“Bobbie was great with my kitties. She even went above and beyond with cleaning and more importantly recognizing that Chappy was not doing well. I was able to return quickly and get him to the vet for urgent care. Highly recommended”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of my hands-on experience with animals in both volunteer and home settings. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, where I gained experience caring for animals with different personalities, backgrounds, and needs. At home, I’ve also cared for five pets, so I understand the consistency, patience, attentiveness, and responsibility that come with managing multiple animals at once. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual routine and temperament while making sure they feel safe, cared for, and given plenty of attention. I am currently working part-time in a remote position, which provides me with a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to caring for pets. I provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular walks and potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of attention. I carefully follow feeding schedules, household instructions, and any specific care preferences provided by the owner. I also prioritize maintaining a clean, comfortable, and safe environment so pets can feel secure while their owners are away.
“You will love Kate. She is dependable, loves all kinds of pets and animals, does extra, sends photos and a narrative, and super communicator. I also chose her because most other profiles show dog photos. I needed a seasoned cat person. I rehired Kate to come by again as I needed to extend my stay. She responded yes immediately. My cat is very happy with Kate who is very good and playful with my 6 month old kitten who has a lot of energy💕”
About: As a professional dog bather, I spend my days ensuring dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments feel clean, comfortable, and safe. My daily work gives me hands-on experience handling different coat types, reading canine body language, and keeping pets calm during routine care. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to two rescue-level personality powerhouses—a high-energy Black Lab and a strong, affectionate Cane Corso/American Bully mix. Living with and caring for both friendly, active pups and powerful, large breeds means I am entirely comfortable managing dogs of any strength, energy level, or size. Whether your dog needs an engaging, controlled walk or attentive in-home sitting, I bring professional handling skills, deep patience, and genuine love to every pet I care for. As a professional dog bather, my daily work centers on reading animal body language, handling pets of all sizes, and creating a calm, safe environment for every animal in my care. My life at home is just as pet-focused: I manage a vibrant household with two large, energetic dogs—a Black Lab and a Cane Corso/American Bully mix—and five cats. Living with five felines and two powerful dog breeds gives me hands-on, daily experience with everything from high-energy walks and large-breed handling to subtle cat behavior, multi-pet routines, and meticulous home safety. Whether your pets need an active, controlled walk or attentive, low-stress in-home sitting, I bring professional handling skills, deep patience, and true everyday multi-pet experience to every visit. Care in My Home (Apartment Living) Structured Outdoor Time & Frequent Breaks: Living in an apartment means outdoor time is always active and intentional. I take dogs out frequently throughout the day for structured, leash-guided walks and bathroom breaks to keep them exercised, happy, and comfortable. Crate-Trained & Calming Environment: As a multi-pet owner (including a Black Lab and a Cane Corso/Bully mix), my home is built on clear routines and safety. My own dogs are well-trained and crate-trained. Crate training allows for safe, stress-free boundaries, individualized downtime, and secure separation whenever needed (e.g., during feeding times or quiet rest). Indoor Enrichment & Constant Supervision: Because apartment space is defined, pets in my care receive close, direct supervision, interactive indoor play, and dedicated individual attention rather than being left unattended in a yard. Maintaining Familiar Routines: I strictly mirror your established feeding, walking, and medication schedules so your pets feel completely secure in their familiar environment. Low-Stress Handling & Body Language Expertise: Drawing on my professional bathing background, I monitor pets for subtle signs of stress or discomfort, ensuring low-stress interactions—whether that means gentle companionship for sensitive cats or structured leash control for energetic dogs. Multi-Pet Home Management: I am thoroughly experienced in managing multi-pet households safely, keeping dogs and cats on their respective feeding and play routines while ensuring entryways and doors remain strictly secure. Cleanliness & Respect for Your Space: I leave your home exactly as I found it—handling litter box maintenance, wiping muddy paws after walks, cleaning feeding areas, and keeping your pets safe and comfortable while you're away.

Im very attentive to things such as litter box cleaning, feeding/medication schedules, and assisting with enrichment (walks, playtime)
About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I haven’t had a pet of some sorts. I’ve had cats, dogs, a bird, bunnies, reptiles, etc. You name it, I’ve probably had it. I love animals and if given the opportunity, I will love your pet like they’re my own. I currently have a full time job, however I am only in the office three days a week. Your pets needs will be my top priority and I like to really let them enjoy their walks, no rushing here! I have two very friendly dogs that can be placed in their room if needed. I do have a dog crate if you prefer your dog to be crated, however I do not crate my dogs.
“10/10 cat caregiver, my two boys 🐈🐈 and I love Elizabeth! She takes such good care of them and sends me pictures and updates every day, usually multiple times. I feel so at peace with my boys in her care, and they have the best time playing and hanging at her place! We have been and will continue to book again with Elizabeth.”
“Solome did a great job taking care of Loki while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us a peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Thank you so much Solome. We’ll definitely be reaching out to you again.”
“Adriana was excellent. Took great care of my kitties and watered some outdoor plants for me. She checked in with me every time she was here and sent pictures. I will definitely contact her again next time I go away.”
About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and small mammals. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, administering medication, and providing companionship to animals of all ages and sizes. I'm passionate about animal welfare and dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for every pet in my care. I currently work part time for the university, but I do have extremely flexible hours. This thankfully allows me to be available practically whenever needed! I'm dedicated to providing the best care for my pets, ensuring their well being through nutritious diets, and a comfortable, clean environment. Daily exercise and plenty of love and affection are also essential parts of their happy, healthy lives :)
“Emily was great! She is my first ever pet sitter, I was nervous about one of my pups, but by the end of the weekend he warming up to her! It was nice having someone check on them while I was away! I couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with dogs in my home and have been dog sitting for over 10 years, caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. I genuinely love animals and treat every dog like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am a very active individual so I make sure they get lots of playtime and walks:) I work full time, 8–5, but I always come home during my lunch break for about an hour. I also take nightly walks. I’m available on weekends and am usually home. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding them on their regular schedule, providing fresh water, taking them on walks, and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep the pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I also make sure to keep the home clean and provide updates as needed so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

Jessa is amazing! We have a lot of cats (old cat, feral cats, cat with behaviors) and she took such special care of all of them. She cleaned up unexpected accidents, took lots of pictures, and followed all directions we left. She loves animals and it shows in her work. I highly recommend!
I’m so grateful for the wonderful care she gave my two furbabies while I was away on a 5-day vacation. 🐾❤️ She took great care of them and gave me peace of mind knowing they were safe and well cared for. I truly appreciate everything she did for my babies. I would definitely trust her to take care of them again! Highly recommend! 🐱💕
I just needed someone to come by and feed my elderly cat twice a day for 3 weeks, but Samantha went above and beyond. She took pictures and videos of my cat and it was obvious that the cat took to her quickly. I had unexpected packages show up that she brought in and on her last day, she took out the trash and recycling without being asked. My cat has separation anxiety and I was so nervous leaving her for that long, but when I came back she looked amazing and happy!!
Kara was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our girls while we were away and followed every instruction perfectly. She truly went above and beyond—not only did she make sure our cats were happy, loved, and well cared for, but she also took the time to feed the neighborhood "ferals" that we look after. One of the things we appreciated most was that she sent us plenty of pictures and videos throughout our trip. Seeing our girls happy, relaxed, and getting lots of attention gave us tremendous peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation. We came home to happy, content kitties, and it's obvious Kara genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again. 12/10—highly recommend Kara! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furry family! 🧡🐈
Ally always does an amazing job with our cats. They feel super calm and comfortable whenever she comes over, which says a lot because they can be picky about people! She’s reliable, gentle, and truly great with animals. We’re so grateful to have her as our sitter!

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.
