Can sitters care for multiple cats at the same time?

Many sitters on Rover are experienced in managing 'full houses', from bonded pairs to larger clowders with different personalities. Help your sitter prepare by:

• Creating individual profiles for each cat. This allows you to list specific details easily, from dietary restrictions to personal boundaries.
• Detailing their routines during your Meet & Greet. Show your sitter what tricks you use to make sure your cats eat their meal—and only their own meals.
• Identifying your cats’ hiding spots. The less time your sitter spends looking for one cat who likes to hide, the more time they can spend with the other cat who likes to snuggle.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Gwynedd pet parents with similar pet households.

Can I find a sitter experienced with shy or indoor-only cats?

You can look for sitters on Rover whose profiles and reviews mention experience with shy, nervous or indoor-only cats.

When you contact a sitter, explain your cat’s usual routine, hiding places, preferred level of interaction and any door, window or escape-prevention precautions. During the Meet & Greet, discuss how the sitter will approach feeding, litter care, medication, play and check-ins without forcing interaction. You can also ask the sitter to provide specific photo or message updates through Rover.

How will a sitter access my home?

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.

How are sitters on Rover verified?

Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.

Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

What is the Rover Guarantee and what does it cover?

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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.

What is a Meet & Greet?

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've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've 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're 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'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

What is Rover’s cancellation and refund policy?

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-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 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 booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
