About: Growing up, I was always surrounded by animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits of all ages. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic pet care, and giving pets plenty of attention while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to help them feel as comfortable as possible! I work Monday–Friday from 8:30–4:30 with a one-hour lunch break, so I’m available for morning and evening care throughout the week and have additional flexibility during my lunch break. I am a very patient and compassionate person, and I enjoy spending time with pets. I keep my home very tidy and will treat yours the same!
“Brandi was amazing with my two cats!! She is so professional and caring. Very detail oriented. She sends pics and updates with every drop in!!! Using her again next week for a few days over the holiday. She is a super star! I didn't worry one bit with her watching them. She made my vacation worry free so we could relax and enjoy time away. Five star and can’t say enough about her. If you want someone who really cares and will take great care of your pets, schedule with Brandi.”
“Joy took excellent care of my cat Truffles. I was nervous about leaving her for so long. Truffles requires daily medication. She's a rescue, and I work from home so I thought she'd be lonely. Joy sent photos and updates, which I appreciated. She took excellent care of Truffles, and even watered my plants! Thank you, Joy!”
“Keri and her daughter were very friendly and helpful with taking care of our cat for a week. The pictures were great to see and she was responsive in answering questions. We appreciated them and their service!”
“Kelly did a great job with our senior cat who has special food and insulin needs. She is super responsive and reliable! I will definitely book Kelly again next time we travel.”
“We’ve been satisfied clients of Christina for a few years. She goes above and beyond for our older cats who require medications, etc. We can enjoy our vacations knowing they’re being well looked after.”
“Cat did a fantastic job with the drop in visits. She was punctual, spent some time playing them, and had no issues with our most high maintenance cat’s medication. Most importantly, the cats really seemed to liked her. I would highly recommend her and plan on hiring her again for any future visits.”
“Andrea was wonderful while we were out of town! Kept the litter boxes clean, and gave our kitty Plenty of love! Also went above and beyond helping bring in mail and some boxes that were delivered too”
“This was our second time with Alex, they did an excellent job with our kitty and my guinea pig! Our kitty is pretty shy but after a few visits she started to warm up to them. Now our kitty can get snuggles when we are gone, especially when she's picky on who she likes.”
“Griffin was great! He helped Momo when we needed a sitter last minute. He asked thoughtful questions and really hit it off with Momo during their meet and greet. 10/10 would recommend as a sitter and we’re looking forward to scheduling more visits!”
“Jill does such a great job with our zoo! 10 cats, all with different feeders, two that need isolated, and 1 that needs medication. It is such a relief that we can leave for a trip and know that our kitties are well looked after! Highly recommend!!!”
“We had a great first experience using Rover with Nicole as our pet sitter! Our kitten, Paris, stayed with her for four days and was clearly happy and well cared for when we picked her up. Nicole was attentive, playful with Paris, and made sure she felt right at home. She was also very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire stay. We’re so glad we chose Nicole—definitely a great choice for us!”
“As always, Amy was an outstanding companion for my guy, Simba, while I was on vacation! If you’re looking for a drop-in sitter for your feline friend, you could do no better than Amy! 😊”
“This was Jenee’s first time sitting for us and everything went great! She gave us super daily updates on each of our kitty boys and even cleaned up a plant they knocked over. We really appreciated her help and professionalism with our little guys and will be happy to ask her to cat-sit again.”

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
