“Thank you so much for all of your help! Having Tabitha care for our pets took so much worry off of us. She did a wonderful job! We were constantly up to date and the crew was well cared for!”
“Gabbie was amazing! She was super thorough and caring, and sent us detailed updates and great pictures after every visit. Our pets really seemed to love her, and she even taught our puppy a few new tricks! We’d absolutely book with Gabbie again. If you’re looking for a great pet sitter or puppy trainer, we definitely recommend her!”
“Annaliese did a wonderful job checking in on my baby. Even though I was on a cruise and unable to respond she sent pictures and updates each day. She did a great job!”
“Shawn is the best pet sitter I couldve asked for to take care of my guinea pigs! She took great care of them and sent me pictures and updates every day. She is so passionate about pets and it shows in the care she provides. Thank you so much!”
“Hillary took amazing care of my two cats while we were out for a weekend trip - she went out of her way to make sure the kitties had a clean space and were getting treats and love! thank you so much <3”
“Bianca was great with our kitties! We were taking a long vacation, so it put me at ease knowing they were in good hands. She sent multiple daily photos to keep us updated and was very responsive. Definitely would book again!”
“Andrea is the cat whisperer! My cats, one of which is extremely shy, warmed up to her immediately. Cats have a sense of who they can trust. Andrea was reliable, followed everything that was asked, and sent updates. I always get nervous leaving my pets home by themselves when I'm away, but I felt at ease with Andrea checking on them. Will definitely be contacting her again!”
About: I have worked with cats and dogs for many years. I have trained my own dog who is very well tempered and I have administered different types of medicines to older and younger animals! I have a very open schedule as a college student and love spending time with animals! I love going on walks and being outdoors, weather doesn’t matter to me! I live in a nice neighborhood with a dog park walking distance away, and I have no other animals so that yours can be the center of attention!
“Britni was AMAZING!! It was my first time using a pet sitter and she sent so many pictures and detailed messages about how he was doing and went above and beyond!! Highly recommend to anyone!!”
About: I’ve had a love for animals as far as my memory goes! I’ve gotten lucky enough to raise and care for just about every household animal you can think of. I had the pleasure of caring for my elderly childhood blue nose pit which has shaped my experience. From providing medicine to assisting with stairs, getting into cars, ETC. I love to cuddle with couch potatoes but also am very active and enjoy playtime! I work from home/remote so I can provide 24/7 care when booking stays in your home. Allow me to give your fur babies the attention they deserve while you’re away (: As a dedicated pet sitter, my primary focus is ensuring safety and trust for both you and your fur babies. I bring a blend of experience and passion to every pet care assignment. My approach is centered on maintaining a secure and comfortable environment in your home, tailored to your specific pet’s needs! I prioritize clear communication and will provide regular updates and photo check-ins so you can feel confident and connected when away.
“Anne was wonderful with our two cats. She is obviously a very caring person and an animal lover, and she was comfortable with them very quickly. One of my cats is very social (he wants lots of affection) but the other one (a female) is very timid and fearful and prefers little to no touching. Anne kept them in separate rooms/areas as I'd requested, since the male will bully the female if given the chance and they may fight with each other. Anne also took extra precautions to ensure our 'lightning-fast' kitty could not run out of the house whenever doors were opened, which really eased my mind. The shy one felt comfy enough to rub herself on Anne's legs at feeding time! Anne also sent me daily updates, along with pictures - which was very appreciated since I was out of state! I am very happy with the care provided. I will book again with Anne whenever needed in the future. Thanks again, Anne!”
“Estefany is such a great care taker for Ellie. She is so kind, communicates well and often and genuinely cares for our pet. I highly recommend her to anyone who is willing to give her an opportunity to care for your pet.”

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 .

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 .
