“Highly recommend Kayce!!!!! We used Kayce to house sit while watching our senior cat Morticia. Kayce was AMAZING. Best vibes. Mature, fun, open & honest, responsible and patient. Great communicator! She was wonderful with Morticia and sent pictures of their interactions. She respected our home as though her own. We will not hesitate to use her again for sitting the cat and/or house sitting.”

“Shanelle is the best. She always went above and beyond taking care of our kitty. She sent great pictures and thorough updates everyday for about 3 weeks. We couldn’t have asked for a better rover and will always book Shanelle when available, whenever we go out of town.”

“Lauren was really great, especially given our cat is very skiddish/scared and runs under the sofa at the slightest noise. Thank you for being caring and compassionate. When we go out of town again, Lauren will definitely be our selection. We highly recommend her.”

“Hana is amazing! She’s so flexible and understanding when it comes to schedules and demands of each animal in the home. She truly cares about our animals (she will leave our tv on for our dog so she isn’t lonely) and does enrichment treats without us even asking her to. I trust her with our babies 100%”

“We couldn’t have been more pleased with the care Danielle gave our two rambunctious 1-year-old cats while we were away. The “boys” clearly loved her and seemed happy and content when we returned home. In addition to feeding and playing with the cats, Danielle kept in constant contact with us, updating us on what the boys were up to and sending lots of photos. We highly recommend Danielle. It was so nice not having to worry about a thing while we were away.”

About: I have been pet sitting both on and off rover for 7 years. I was in the veterinary field for 6 before switching over to my current profession. I love all animals big and small and can’t wait to watch and care for your babies! 🐶🐱 I do work full time Monday-Friday 8-5 but will make sure your animals are taken care of before work and immediately after! If the location is near my job I can also go over there for a lunch walk or play. I do offer both staying and checking in a few times a day. I will typically have some errands to run here and there but for the most part I will be at your home hanging out with your pets and sending you all the pictures!

About: I offer personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs, personality, and routine. With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve had experience taking care of small animals and big animals since I grew up with both. I currently have older dogs at the house but I also have a pup of my own here as well. I am currently not employed and love to work with animals so this is what I chose to do, I love taking care of animals and always have. I’m very used to taking animals out on walks, feeding them, and loving on them since that is what I do with my own. I treat others animals the same way I’d want mine to be treated.

“Above and beyond. The experience was better than perfect. She went way above what was asked . We ran out of food for a pet and she went ahead and bought some . I did reimburse her but she still took time out to handle the issue. It’s so wonderful to know that someone would go above what was required and care for our pets as their own . I will request Jamie again and knowing how well she did and how she cares , makes it easier to go on vacation more frequently. Amazing job Jamie . Thank you again”

About: I’ve been around lots of cats and dogs of all ages and a variety of breeds and personalities. I have experience working at a 4.9 stars dog daycare where I was responsible for an average of 20-30 dogs at a time. I’m happy to accommodate whatever your baby needs while you’re away. I have experience administering oral medications as well as ear and eye drops. My schedule is currently open and I drive. I am happy to work something out with you whether your needs are for weekdays, weekends, or both. I’m big on giving updates and sending pictures. I’ll leave your home exactly as I found out and with your furry friend(s) cared for and happy. Communicate as much about your friend(s) and their needs as you wish and I’ll be happy to help.

I’m currently working a full time job from Mon-Thurs from 7:30AM to 5:00PM. I have a routine of waking up before 4AM so I have plenty of time in the mornings, I am able to leave work between 11:30AM-1:00PM if I need to check on any pups at home or for potty breaks. I am off during the weekends, I don’t do much on my time off just read, clean and I try to exercise in my apartment. I live in an apartment and I will love to take walks and take your fur babies out when needed and for play time as well. I don’t have any pets at home. I will follow any instructions that you give me to sit your fur babies in my own home or yours.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, including my own pets and my professional experience as a kennel attendant at a pet daycare. I’m experienced with walks, feeding routines, baths, medication, and providing care for pets with different needs and temperaments. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to give your pet the same attention, patience, and love I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I plan my days around making sure each pet gets proper care, playtime, walks, and check-ins without feeling rushed. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and following their normal routine so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I pay attention to their behavior, needs, and any instructions provided to make sure they receive the best care possible.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
