“Rocio takes SUCH wonderful care of our cat! It’s clear she has a love for animals. She is great about sending detailed reports to us daily, along with adorable photos. She gives our cat lots of affection, attention and play time. It gives us peace of mind to know our cat is so well cared for when we are away! Highly recommend Rocio!!”
“Tina was available for drop-in visits with my cat last minute and was very communicative throughout the process. She was detailed in her Rover card and took plenty of pics of my cat, which I always appreciate. ☺️”
“Lucia did a great job taking care of my cat, as usual! It’s reassuring to have someone I trust pet sitting Mora, who I know will make sure to get my cat her medication every night.”
“Tahiana took wonderful care of our 15 year old cat Nick while we were away for the bank holiday weekend. She ensured he was well scritched, fed, and loved. We were also provided with updates and pictures. We would definitely book Tahiana again :)”
About: I’ve grown up with many different animals including dogs, rabbits, cats and guinea pigs. I have my own energetic dog. I have completed 1 year of work experience at a veterinary school hospital and worked with many different breeds of dogs. I’m known to be trust worthy, reliable and full of fun. I’m available from Monday - Friday from the hours of 8am - 8pm, with the occasional latest 10pm for dog sitting if needed. I would love to spend my spare time with animals. I have a driving license of 2 years with a car, I am happy to take them to many different places for walks. I am happy to take your dog(s) to a fully enclosed dog field with obstacle courses and a splash pool if they can swim. They will be dried off before bringing them back into your home.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since childhood, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. From energetic puppies and loyal adult dogs to curious cats and small pets, I truly enjoy building a connection with every animal I meet. I’m an active person who loves going for walks, so regular outdoor time, exercise, and fresh-air adventures are always part of my routine with pets. Whether it’s playtime, gentle senior care, reinforcing training, or just keeping your pet’s routine consistent, I provide loving, reliable care and treat every animal like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m currently a student and also work a part-time job, but I keep a very flexible schedule that allows me to be available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I make time every day to get outside for walks and enjoy including pets in that active time. I’m responsible, organized, and always punctual, so you can count on me to follow your pet’s routine, whether that includes feeding, playtime, walks, or cuddle breaks. I’m always happy to discuss scheduling details to make sure it works well for you and your pet. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the routine and guide you provide so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I pay attention to the little details—feeding times, favorite toys, treats, and any special habits—because I know how much routine matters to pets. I treat your home with the same respect as your pet, keeping everything clean and tidy by washing bowls, cleaning up after playtime, and keeping litter or potty areas fresh. I also love staying in touch, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make things easy and stress-free for both you and your pet. 🐾
“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with our cat! She was kind, attentive and affectionate, and made sure all of our cat's needs and wants were taken care of. Her daily updates and photos gave us complete peace of mind, and our cat seemed happy, relaxed, and very comfortable with her. Elizabeth was professional, punctual, and completely reliable throughout. Everything went smoothly. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her!”
About: Hi, I’m Romina 😊 I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always grown up with pets. I’ve mainly looked after small and medium-sized dogs, but I also really like larger dogs and would be more than happy to care for one. Since moving to England, it’s been a bit more difficult to have a pet of my own, so I’d love the chance to look after other people’s dogs, give them plenty of affection, and enjoy spending time with them. I enjoy playing with them, taking them out for walks, and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well looked after - just like they would at home. I’m also happy to handle feeding and follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I currently study online, which means I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to different needs. I may also be available on some bank holidays, depending on availability. I’m a patient, responsible, and caring person, and I would look after your dog as if they were part of my own family 🐶💛 If you have any questions or would like to know a bit more about me, I’d be very happy to chat! I study online during the afternoons and evenings, so I have plenty of time during the day to stay with your pet or take them out for walks. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be a priority. I’ll make sure to follow their usual routine and your instructions, from feeding and walks to playtime, rest, and any special needs. I’ll also take the time to get to know their personality and respect their individual needs and boundaries, so they can feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and videos throughout their stay, so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’ll treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable during their time with me. 🐾
“Libby has been fantastic with our puppy Skye. Not only does she show up on time and take care of Skye's needs. She has been incredibly helpful as we set our puppy's schedule and deal with all the shenanigans of a new dog.”
About: I have a Frenchie and really enjoy training, walking and playing with her! She has two homes and when she is not with me, I am here on Rover! I would love to come by to get acquainted with you and your fur babies (and vice versa). This way, when I do turn up, they'll be comfy with me! Please let me know your pet's likes and dislikes! This is definitely up to you and your fur baby's routine! Please let me know everything I need to know about his or her needs! I enjoy the outdoors and sharing this with your fur babies will make it even more enjoyable! I cannot wait to meet your fur babies!
“Ellen was very professional, trustworthy, and an excellent sitter for our cat. The cat needed special medication each night and Ellen administered it no problem. She event went above and beyond to water our balcony plants during the heat wave.”
“Jasmine is such a good sitter! My German Shepherd loved walking with her and being cared for by her. Normally he doesn’t eat when we are away but she made him feel so comfortable that he had no issues.”
“Maisie was great. She came to meet Dotty in the daytime and then came back while I was out to feed, let Dotty out and to check she was ok and play etc. I would definitely recommend Maisie, she was kind and gentle and engaged with Dotty.”
“Erika watched our cats for about a month and took great care of them. We got lovely pictures each time she visited and a little update so we could rest easy. This was the second time we used her and she never disappoints. We will be using her services again. Our kitties love her, and they don't love just anyone. ”
“Taja was a wonderful and very reliable cat sitter. She took great care of our two cats, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was easy and she was very considerate and gentle with our cats. I would happily recommend Taja to anyone looking for a cat sitter in Cambridge!”

Nena has looked after our cats a couple of times now, and she has been absolutely fantastic every time. She’s incredibly caring and attentive, especially during the hot days this summer, making sure Mochi stayed cool and even adding ice cubes to her water. She always kept us updated after each visit, which gave us such great peace of mind while we were away. She also made sure to give them plenty of cuddles and playtime, so it was clear they were getting lots of love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter, highly recommend Nena!
Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with our cat! She was kind, attentive and affectionate, and made sure all of our cat's needs and wants were taken care of. Her daily updates and photos gave us complete peace of mind, and our cat seemed happy, relaxed, and very comfortable with her. Elizabeth was professional, punctual, and completely reliable throughout. Everything went smoothly. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her!
Josephine did a wonderful job looking after our cat Mollie while we were away for a week. She worked hard to build a relationship with our shy and sometimes grumpy cat, and was brilliant with communication and following our instructions. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again!
Freya was wonderful! She cared for Muffin beautifully and kept us up-to-date on how he was doing with lots of photos. She even watered my plants which were looking thirsty in the warm weather! Muffin had a lovely time with her and we will definitely book in with Freya again in the future 🥰

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Cambridge pet parents with similar pet households.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cambridge choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
