“Jordan went above and beyond to make our cats and parrots comfortable. It was such a relief to know someone was looking in on them and giving them some attention while we were gone!”
About: I grew up with an amazing Doberman and 3 wonderful Rottweilers so I love big dogs and have lots of experience working with them. My family had 2 cats and my favorite aunt has had many more throughout her lifetime that I always wanted to go play with. I have through the years also had fish, rabbits, and many friends and family who I've help care for their reptiles(turtles, lizards, snakes, birds) in addition to their fur babies. I'm trying to make animal care my full time job while everyone is at school, so I have all day to care for your pets and home during the week. My home has a very nervous shelter rescue dog so I cannot invite new dogs in, but I have house/pet sat for many friends and families through the years and always had happy results. I understand every animal has individual needs and I strive to accommodate that, along with always trying to leave a place as nice as if not better than I found it.
“Melissa is absolutely amazing! We trusted her so much with our sweet kitty and felt a great peace of mind knowing that she was safe in the hands of Melissa. I would recommended booking her 100/100⭐️⭐️ She really cares about the pets she watches :)”
About: I grew up with small, medium, and large dogs, and I now have two cats of my own! I have experience providing drop-in visits for both dogs and cats for family and friends. I'm extremely reliable, have a flexible schedule, and love caring for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will care for them well while you're away. I am currently staying at home, so I have a very flexible schedule and am able to make pet care a consistent part of my routine. I have plenty of availability for visits and different schedules! I will follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, refilling water, litter box care, playtime, and any other preferences.
About: Raised around animals of all shapes and sizes from a young age, caring for pets is second nature to me. I’ve owned and loved both cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments my entire life—from energetic puppies and curious kittens to sweet, gentle seniors. This lifelong experience means I understand their unique body language, daily routines, and individual needs, ensuring your pets feel completely safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Working a hybrid schedule, I am only in the office for a couple of hours four days a week. During these short trips away, your pet remains safe and secure inside my home—either comfortably resting in a crate or roaming freely, depending on your preferences and training needs. The rest of my time is fully spent working from home, allowing me to stick to consistent feeding, play, and potty routines while giving your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether in my home or yours, pet care is centered on keeping your dog safe, comfortable, and happy. I have a fully fenced-in backyard that provides a secure space for outdoor play, alongside access to tons of great local walking trails for daily exercise. At home, I have the sweetest 4-year-old pup who is always excited to make new friends and keep your pup entertained throughout their stay!
About: I’ve been a vet tech since 2021, and I’ve worked with animals and livestock since I was a child. I currently work 2 days per week at an emergency/specialty hospital in Austin. I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medications or a little extra support. I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals throughout my life, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, and cattle. I’m Fear Free certified and trained in low-stress handling, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable in my care. I’m also RECOVER CPR certified, which means I’m trained in pet CPR and emergency life support. Whether your pet needs medications, extra patience, or just a calm and caring presence, they’ll be in capable hands with me! I have mostly open availability for drop-in visits, house sitting, and night boarding at my own home (reserved only for feline friends). My schedule includes mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m very flexible, so please feel free to message me even if you see a block on my calendar. Pet care is already a huge part of my daily life, so fitting in visits and maintaining consistent routines for your pets comes naturally to me. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about availability to make sure your pet receives reliable and consistent care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while providing attentive, low-stress care. I’m trained to monitor for any signs of illness or discomfort and can confidently administer medications, including oral, topical, and injectable treatments if needed. If boarding in my home, I live in a spacious two-story house with a large, fenced backyard. I also have a secure catio for supervised outdoor time for kitties who enjoy it. I always introduce pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in a new environment.
About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine, labeling me the "animal lover" of the family. I volunteered in a dog grooming/boarding business when I was in middle school, and as an adult, I volunteered at the Austin Humane Society for 4 years. (walking, training, feeding, bathing, playing) Pet care is not just about being IN the room; it's about active engagement, playing, keeping structure, and giving your fur babies the dedicated love and attention they need while you're away. I understand routine is important for giving your pet(s) comfort and peace of mind. I also believe in positive reinforcement to keep up with any ongoing training you're already practicing at home. Whether your pet is high-energy and needs structured play, a senior dog who prefers couch cuddles, or a cat who wants to play on their own terms, I do my best to adapt effortlessly to all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. For house sitting, I'm typically available all days & times of the week except for Sundays heading into Monday mornings. For visits, I'm down for an early morning walk/jog, a midday trip to the nearest walking trail, and/or a visit before bedtime. When I visit your home, your rules apply. I follow all feeding schedules, play times, walking times/routes, treat allowances, etc. I am very comfortable administering medications and bathing, if needed.
“Oh goodness Annabelle was terrific!! She kept us updated on Chai several times a day. She left the house in better condition than when she got here. She is officially our go-to house sitter!”
“Sierra was great!! She took great care of my pets and I had no worries leaving them in her care. She was respectful and sent updates every day. I would highly recommend and will definitely rebook with her!”
About: From Chinchillas to Chow chows, I have cared for them all both professionally and personally for over the last decade. Whether I need to administer medication or comfort during a thunderstorm storm, I’m happy to help your furry family member while you’re away. I work part-time right now and have a lot of extra time in between semesters at school. If your pet is comfortable with other dogs, I can also provide boarding at my home. I have a very sweet female dog at home who really enjoys company, dog or cat. If you would like your pet to stay at my home I have a shady and securely fenced yard as well. Your pet will also have their own space as my laundry room has been converted into a kennel area if they prefer their own space. If your pet prefers to stay at home, I have reliable transportation to make multiple visits daily, or if you prefer your pet to have constant company in home, extended stays are an option at your convenience and comfort level.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them! I currently have a cat of my own, and growing up I helped care for our family dogs and cats. I also grew up leasing a horse, which taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and providing consistent care. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to give your pets the same care and attention I’d want for my own. 🐾❤️ I work full-time, but I have flexibility during the day to check in on pets. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits depending on your pet’s routine and needs. I’m happy to work with you to create a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I live in an apartment and have a cat of my own, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in a home environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention. I especially prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and maintain their usual routine. I may also be able to accommodate boarding in my apartment depending on the pet’s needs and compatibility with my cat.

About: I grew up with pets in my home and love animals of all kinds. I have experience pet setting/house sitting for cats and dogs of all sizes. I enjoy walking dogs because I love being active and outdoors! I have no problem at all cleaning up after your dog if he gets sick, or goes to the bathroom! I'm okay giving medications as needed. I'm great with feeding and giving water. I have experience pet sitting for quiet, calm dogs and rowdy, playful and sometimes very loud dogs. I'm also great with cats and other animals as needed! I will treat your pet and your home with great respect! I am currently not working so I've got all the time in the world to come and pet sit for you! I'm happy to come at whatever time of day works best. I follow the directions that I've been given for pet care exactly as stated. I will provide food and water to your pet and take them outside for walks as needed. I also love to just play with and cuddle animals as the animal is comfortable with me. I am also comfortable changing litter boxes for cats as needed.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs from a young age and have experience with daily care, leash walking, and reinforcing positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and prioritize safety, consistency, and patience. I look forward to providing reliable walks and attentive care so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. I make sure to keep owners updated and always respect training rules and boundaries. I am attentive, clean, and treat your home and your pet with care. Every day I clean my cat's litter box and ensure she has fresh food and water and spend time playing with her to keep her stimulated. My cat always has things to scratch on and chase and spaces to nap and hide away and watch things outside when she pleases. My cat is my pride and joy and I'm always delighted when I have guests over and they comment on how sweet and unafraid she is. Cats are where I have the most hands-on experience, and I’m very comfortable reading their behavior and respecting their boundaries. I take time to build trust with each cat at their pace. With dogs, I make sure they get consistent walks, playtime, and the physical engagement they need to stay relaxed and content. I take being in someone else’s home seriously. I follow all care instructions exactly as given, maintain feeding and medication schedules, and clean up after pets as needed. My goal is to keep your home and your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible.
About: I have taken care of so many dogs and cats over my life time. From my childhood dogs including a German Shepard, a beagle and a chihuahua mix, to a Scottish short hair cat and now 3 little cute cats with me at home. I know what it takes to take care of pets and give the pets what they need I am currently unemployed so I am available at all times. If you need me to check up on your pet many times during the day I can and also take them out for walks! I make sure all the pets are behaving and if there is any trouble I make sure to de escalate and keep the pets calm and collective. I know what it takes to take care of pets in a way that is caring and nurturing.
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”

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.

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 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.
