“Aliyah took such great care of Pebbles! She had great communication, was punctual, and even called me every day so I could talk to Pebbles on the phone. It was my first time being away from my fur baby since I adopted her so I was a bit worried about how she would react. Aliyah took such great care of her for me which relieved my anxiety and Pebbles’ anxiety too! I am so grateful.”
“Y’all, Kristal is the BEST. I messed up my dates and ended up out of town without a sitter. She showed up within 4 hours and saved me. She sent loads of pictures to ease my mind and was kind and playful with my kitty. It’s worth everything to know your pet is safe and happy and Kristal made that happen”
“I highly recommend Mickela for your pet sitting needs. She was able to fill a super last min need for drop-ins on my two kitties while I was away for a few days. She responded quickly and was able to meet me at short notice. She was very sweet and the boys took to her immediately. She was great about cleaning up their messes (including a puke surprise left by one of them lol). This was the first time I booked a sitter to do daily drop-ins and I’m so glad I reached out to Mickela. She was such a huge help. 🤗”
“Great experience! She was very flexible, communicative, and took great care of my dogs during the drop-in visits. I really appreciated the updates and knowing my pups were in good hands. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: I have a 12 year old yorkie/havenese named daisy. She has been in our care since she was 1 y/o so i'm aware of dog care in all stages from puppy to senior dogs. Growing up my family/friends have always chosen me to be responsible and care for their animals so i thought why not spread the love? Ramon has also been in care of plenty of his family dogs growing up as well! There was always no less than 4 dogs in the house at a time. We love dogs so much and there will be an abundance of love to go around with my family. We can't wait to play with our new furry friends. My boyfriend and i have plenty of time through out the week together to care for your beloved pets! I have a full time job so i help where i can but my boyfriend is currently in school and has plenty of time in between classes to care for your furry friends! In our house, my partner ramon and i try to create a warm, inviting, and loving atmosphere. With my senior yorkie mix along with my 2 young cats we have everything your furry friend may want or need: toy galore, bottomless treats, long walks, and all the affection in the world. From long boarding/ house sitting to as small as a walk we aim to provide care to your furry loved ones just as they were one of ours! <3
About: I've always cared for my own dogs and cats and those of family and friends. I would love to be a safe place for your fur baby too. I get up early to walk my pets. we walk again at lunch when I am home and again in the evening. My neighborhood is quiet and scenic for long walks. I have a fenced yard and dedicated space for the dogs to use the bathroom that is cleaned frequently. Animals have plenty space to play together or separately.
About: I’ve had experience in pet sitting for minimum 10 years. Attention to detail and care for pets needs come first. Restrictions if any are considered as well. Morning, mid day, and evening walks are a must. As well as feeding, as frequent or less as needed. Pets will remain hydrated and have ample play time and relaxation time throughout the day. I offer a fenced yard with a seperate play area inside of home dedicated to pets. There will be ample space inside, or outside of home for pets to flourish and plenty of dog parks available if preferred.
About: I can provide walks, enrichment games, and reinforce any training you may be working on with your dog. I have dog toys, and gates and a dog crate if your dog needs space to themself or wants a cozy place to sleep / relax or to continue any crate training you may be working on. I have availability multiple days / times and flexible work schedule. Currently Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday are days I am able to provide multiple walks during the day. I also have a Eufy dog camera/treat dispenser so if I ever need to leave, I can still monitor furbabies. I have a large condo with a large walkout balcony that is fenced and plenty of walking space behind our building at a park. If your dog needs space/is not dog friendly I can ensure they stay away from other dogs in the neighborhood since I’m familiar with their routines.
About: With 12 years of pet-sitting experience, I provide loving, dependable, and personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I have experience with overnight stays, administering medications when needed, and caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who need extra attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I prioritize keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home. I follow care instructions closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring, reliable hands! I offer flexible scheduling and can accommodate pet care visits before work, during lunch hours, and in the evenings, as well as overnight stays and weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule and discuss timing that best suits your pet’s needs. I strive to be reliable, accommodating, and consistent so your pet receives attentive care even when you’re away. I care for pets in the comfort of their own homes, following their usual routines and care instructions. I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and medication administration as needed. I also respect your home and provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
“Synia A. was fantastic! She was kind, dependable, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire pet-sitting experience. She met all my requirements and made sure all of my pet needs were taken care of as well. She also has great communication skills and gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her services.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience raising and training a Cocker Spaniel, a Pitbull Terrier, and a Rottweiler from puppyhood into their senior years, my goal is to provide patient and dependable care tailored to your pet's unique personality. Whether they need playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a calm place to stay, they will always feel safe, loved, and cozy while in my care. I currently work full-time in Alexandria, VA, but I work remotely on Mondays and Wednesdays. I do have open availability on weekends, and I am available to board throughout the weekend into Monday. My care is tailored to the individual needs of every animal. My apartment complex is incredibly pet-friendly with a large area right outside my unit for long walks and playtime. We also have a grooming station in case your fur baby needs a little TLC before going home. As an active young adult and someone familiar with the challenges of the puppy years - I am also available to walk dogs as frequently as needed. I also have no problem administering medication or patiently supporting elderly or special needs animals.
About: Since growing up at a young age, I’ve always had a pet by my side and now that I love daily unconditionally. If there is one thing I can teach them is to get along with others animals as well as people. My patience and understanding will keep them thriving and healthy. I only want to give them more than they need. I am available 5 days of the week to care for your pet, including the weekend if needed! After all, someone has to be there for them. No pet under my supervision has ever been in harms way. I have a big cage with food and water. Pet toys, cleaning supplies, and pet proof items to keep them safe.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life — I’ve grown up with dogs since I was two, have an 11-year-old turtle, four cats, and a Maltese. I also regularly pet sit for family and friends, caring for everything from birds to big dogs (and even a feisty Chihuahua mix!). I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I currently have a part time job as a Teller, so I’m 100% flexible with moving my schedule around for the needs of your fur babies if communicated! Feel free to ask for any arrangements! When caring for pets in clients homes, I strictly follow the golden rule- treating both the pets and home as if the pets were my pets or even me myself, and as if the home were also my home. I also keep in mind to do exactly what’s needed for both the pet and owner to keep both as satisfied as possible!
About: I've had a lot of experience with pets as most of my friends and family have pets. I’ve had a few of my own with my immediate family. I mostly have experience with dogs, though a majority of latest jobs have been with cats. I recently cared for Bruno (Siberian cat) and Bryce (Australian Shepard). My close friends have 3 dogs of different sizes: Dido (small-sized), Lucy (medium-sized), and Linus (large-sized). One of them requires medication, so I have a bit of experience with medication administration. I like to have a schedule and any preferences for any pet. I enjoy taking dogs out at least twice a day for fun and multiple times for bathroom trips (depending on how often you prefer). I care for your pet as they are my own and would love the chance to care for your furry family member! I mainly take extra jobs on weekends but am open to mornings and nights. I work around my schedule by tailoring the sit to meet both of our needs. I always get a detailed list of things pets need, care routine, and feeding/walking schedule. It’s important to keep their normal routine, so their comfortable and relaxed about the change in care (and a new human!)
“Jordan took excellent care of our two cats while we were away. I will definitely be contacting him in the future. If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I highly recommend Jordan.”
“Heather was amazing! She gave our girl so much love and I could just tell from her photos and messages that Matilda was having a blast! We are so thankful to have found Heather as she gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely book Heather as a first call the next time we need a sitter. Thanks so much Heather! 😍 🐾”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Thrift
Aliyah was such a great cat sitter while I was on vacation! She regularly kept me updated and took great pictures (some of my new favorites!) of my cat so I knew she was having fun and doing well while I was gone. My cat has a tendency to knock over house plants but Aliyah cleaned them up for me which was so helpful! Normally it’s hard for me to leave my cat alone for long trips, but with Aliyah watching her I had no stress! I will definitely be booking with her again!
She was amazing with our kitties and was very responsive. I was abroad for two whole weeks and she kept me up-to-date with photos and explanations of which cats she was able to see and what hiding spots she was able to discover and even got a chance to sit with our Most scariest of scaredy-cats. She was very diligent at cleaning up after all of our kitties as well and it was a huge relief to be able to trust her with our home could not recommend more.

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.

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.
