“Lily was by far one of the BEST sitters we’ve ever had for our cats! She’s a very gentle and sweet individual who has a natural ability to identify our cats’ needs. We were impressed with her consistent daily reporting on our cats, especially with her breathings with our more antisocial furbaby. We couldn’t have been more fortunate in finding Lily to trust our cats with over the holidays.”
“Suzanne was very friendly and did an excellent job caring for and loving on my cat when I was away. I will definitely keep her in mind for the future and recommend her to others.”
“Brooke was wonderful with Kitty and Kitty loved their time together. The pictures and video provided the much needed relief for me since this is the first time we used someone that was not family. It went so great we even booked extra time. We will definitely use Brook in the future.”
“We requested last minute to watch our cats & it has been nothing but amazing! We had a meet & greet prior which helped my anxiety. Super super communicative and very detailed reports - also takes cute photos! Will definitely go back!!”
“I checked on our kitties every day through our Ring Camera, and they looked as content as can be. Ms. Olivia provided photos and video every day; I greatly appreciate her professionalism and attention to instruction; I'd certainly hire again 😺”
“Megan was amazing at taking care of Ellie and making sure she got plenty of playtime in. Ellie is only 5 months so she requires a bit more attention and play which I can tell she got plenty of. Megan sent me updates, photos, and videos and was very easy to reach. I will be booking with Megan if she’s available in the future.”
“Kayla was a HUGE help for me when I had to leave my cat for an extended period. Kayla was very understanding, helpful, and communicative over the course of my absence. I highly recommend her and will definitely be seeking her service again in the future!”
“Could not have been happier with Brianna’s check-in visit for my cat! She was on time, took care of all of her needs, played with her, sent me photos, and even did her litter and filled her food and water bowl. She was even willing to water my plants for me! Would absolutely book again, very professional!”
“Monica was our first Rover sitter for our cat & she surpassed all of our expectations. We are incredibly grateful of how considerate, patient, and attentive she was with our kitten to ensure he had a good time while we were on vacation. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Rebecca cared for our three cats for about a week and a half, doing drop ins every other day. She was kind and communicative from start to finish, and went above and beyond to keep us and our kitties happy including lots of playtime, topping off food and water, and even watering a plant for us and bringing packages inside. Would book her again for future travel!”
“Christina is the best! She took care of our cat, cleaned up its messes, watered our plants and generally looked after our house while we were gone. Thanks, Christina!”
“I am so grateful to Tammy for coming to my home to help with my big Lab who is too reactive around other dogs to take to a groomer. She is always so gentle and makes it easy to get his nails trimmed.”
About: I have had animals my entire life and currently have 5 dogs, 5 cats and a horse. My full time job is on a farm taking care of horses so I have the ability to administer fist aid and medications and am comfortable with all sizes and shapes of animals. Also have experience with goats and pigs. I currently work part time and travel some for work so my schedule is flexible and easy to work around. I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years. I also have extensive experience with my own pets and different issues they have had through my life.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for family members and friends while out of town and enjoyed it! I am prompt and honest. I have also always had pets growing up. I am currently working 9am-3pm, Monday-Thursday. so I will be free to check on pets or walk them anytime after that as well as Fridays and weekends at any time! I make sure my pets always have food and water and are let out to use the restroom when needed. I typically let my animals roam freely.
About: Raised an australian shepard pup and kept her occupied and also have dog sat, walked and had sleep overs with from huskies to shelter pups. Never met a dog I didn't like. I have a very open schedule for frequent walk and stop ins. Setting pups up for the night and making sure they are tired from every walk. I always ask what their typical routine is to mimic it in the dogs safe space and am focused on replicating it as well as I can.

Austyn was absolutely wonderful. She sent pictures of my cats so I never had to worry about them. Very kind, very dependable, and even my shy, special needs kitty adores her. She gets 5/5 stars. I highly recommend her to anyone needing their fur babies cared for.

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.

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 .

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 .
