“Erin provided wonderful care for my cats! She has great communication & my babies are lucky to have such a caring sitter. She has a calming and reassuring presence and will win over the shyest of cats. Thank you!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including pet sitting experience outside the U.S. I’m new to Rover in the United States, but I’m not new to pet care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, litter box care, basic grooming, and following detailed owner instructions. I also have pets of my own, so I understand how important consistency, patience, and clear communication are. I’m comfortable caring for cats and dogs of different breeds, mixed breeds, and sizes, including large dogs, as long as they are friendly, well-socialized, and a good fit after a meet-and-greet. I’m happy to send regular photo updates and keep communication clear during the stay. My availability is focused on planned house sitting, weekends, and weekday evenings. I prefer bookings with advance notice so we can do a meet-and-greet, review the pet’s routine, and make sure the booking is a good fit. During a stay, I follow the agreed schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication notes, and updates. If I need to step out, I make sure it fits the pet’s care plan and the owner’s instructions. Most of my care is provided in the client’s home, where I follow the owner’s instructions and house rules carefully. I keep doors, windows, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes secure, and I do not allow off-leash time unless the owner has clearly approved it in a safe area. I pay attention to feeding instructions, medications, behavior changes, appetite, energy level, and emergency contacts. I keep the home clean and respectful, and I send regular updates so owners know their pets are safe and comfortable.
“I had a really great experience with Juniper. Juniper took wonderful care of my cats, sent regular updates and photos, and made me feel very comfortable while I was away. My cats looked happy and well cared for when I got back home. Juniper even left a little drawing of one of my cats, which was such a sweet and thoughtful surprise. I really appreciated the extra care and kindness. I would absolutely book with Juniper again!”
“Andi was phenomenal! Her communication was flawless and we could tell that she cared deeply for our pets. Our home was in great condition when we returned. We'd love to use Andi's services again!”
“Rachel is fantastic with our older Lab, she asks great questions and monitors and alerts us to anything out of the ordinary. Super dependable and professional.”
“Did a great job introducing herself to my shy cat and gave him plenty of attention after he quickly warmed up to her! I could tell from the pictures she sent that my cat was loving her company.”
About: I have cared for animals ever since I was very young, and officially at 9 years old when I got a little hands on experience caring for horses at my riding club. Then more hands on experience when I officially started volunteering at my club for 2 years. But more importantly, I have cat care, and dog care experience. I am responsible for my 2 kitties that I own and I have dog sat 2 puppers for a family friend in the recent past. Animals are a huge part of my life and it has been my dream to follow a career path based around animals ever since I was a little kid. I genuinely want more pet sitting experiences and I would love to care for as many fur babies as I possibly can. I work part time so I have lots of availability in my week to take care of your fur babies. During my available days which are Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, I am very flexible and will be ready to care for your pets at the times you need me to. To keep my kitties safe, my home is cat proofed and I am always on the look out for small objects, wrappers, or anything on the ground that might be dangerous for them. I will do the same in your home to make sure your pets are safe and sound. I will safely take your dogs on walks, feed them, and play with them based on the routine you would like me to follow. As well as any special feeding instructions they have. I will keep your puppers and kitties entertained and well fed. I will also clean their food and water dishes when needed and snuggle with them. I can adjust to whatever your pet needs based on their personality, energy level, or whatever they need in general.
“Sandra was great with my shy dog Zig. She was careful to follow my instructions perfectly making sure my cats stayed in while Zig went out to do his business. She updated me immediately sending photos letting me know all was well. I trust her completely and will definitely use her again. She's super conscientious and Zig warmed up to her immediately. Thanks Sandra!”
“Choose Angela if you want worry-free care for your pets. Angela was quick to respond to any messages and did an awesome job making sure my cat was fed, watered and happy. I will use her again without hesitation. Thank you, Angela!”
“Brooke was an excellent sitter for our cat Dandelion (who's usually pretty fussy). She took great care in acquainting herself, as well as ensuring he got a good play session and grooming while we were away”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our pug, Marcy! She stopped by several times while we were away to make sure that Marcy was fed, walked, and got some quality play time. I really appreciated the pictures she took, as I always miss Marcy so much when I’m away. Tiffany is extremely knowedgable in dog care. I felt very safe leaving Marcy in her hands. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Emily is amazing! She’s so attentive, caring, and knowledgeable. While I was away, my cat developed an ear infection, and Emily was instantly on top of it, keeping us informed every step of the way. Enikyvhad supported us a few times now and honestly my fussy little cat looks forward to us going away just so he can have some chill time with Emily! I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Thanks Emily!!”
About: My experience includes SPCA volunteer work, grooming salon apprenticeship, pet sitting for friends and family, doggy daycare experience, and personal care of my pug from birth to today, and she is 16 years old. I am especially considerate of elderly or special needs pets. I understand grooming needs of multiple coat types, and can assist with behavior correction and training. I am a new resident and currently using gig work to learn about my community and gain more experience with our city as I prepare for my new career search. In client's homes I anticipate a set of expectations to follow, including open communication to prevent misunderstandings, to allow additional details to be provided, or to give clients updates about their pet's and their home's condition.
“Raquel is AMAZING. She has been sitting my 2 kitties for a few months now, and me and the cats both love her. She is so attentive to their habits and leaves detailed notes if anything is out of the ordinary even a little bit. She has learned their routine and personalities and cares for them like they are her own. I’ve requested her last min with only hours notice, over holidays, and for extended periods of time and she has always been willing to hop in to make sure they are cared for. You cannot put a price on having an excellent sitter that you are able to fully and wholly trust with your pets while you’re gone. I cannot recommend her enough. If you want your fur babies in the best hands, Raquel should be your first choice.”
“Jeany was so great! My cat seemed to love her! She took a good amount of photos, cleaned up any messes, and had plenty of cuddle time with our gal. Next time we are away she will be my go to, if she is available that is. Thank you for giving us peace of mind Jeany.”
“Out of 10, Timea is easily a 100! Professional, prompt, and obviously cares deeply about the pets she's tasked to care for. After initial outreach she was quick to schedule a meet & greet and took copious notes to ensure she understood the job. She kept me updated with thorough Rover card (notes and pics) after every visit. She went above and beyond after a particularly bad weather storm knocked out power at our home to ensure my older cat, Oshi, was warm and comfortable. Pets love her and pet owners should look no further than Timea as their next pet sitter!”
“Valentina is such a lovely person with a special love for animals. She is my favourite cat sitter I have found on rover! Thank you for taking good care of my kitties!! Highly recommend her :)”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Union Hill-Novelty Hill
Excellent service; very professional, caring and reliable mother/daughter team. They made friends very quickly with our very shy rescue cat. They take good pictures and send detailed information on how the cat is doing. We look forward to reading their comments on the Rover Card. This is our second time using them, and we will continue in the future. We highly recommend them!
Yihua took such great care of Kaiju and gave her so much love while I was away. Kaiju is normally pretty timid, so it made me so happy seeing her come out of her shell. She was great at communicating and made the whole trip stress-free. I’d absolutely book her again!
Ben did a great job with our three cats. He arrived reliably to take care of their necessities, and ensured each cat got some attention and play time. This was especially important for our most skittish cat who can be hard to coax out, especially when her brothers like to hog the toys. We immediately noticed when we got home that she was more interactive and assertive at play time which is fantastic. He always sent us pictures and short videos from each visit, and we looked forward to each of them daily. We would definitely hire him again.
Ace did a great job with our cats, both of whom have different needs that are (unfortunately) incompatible. Ace was super professional and knew how to handle our cats through clear experience. Check-ins were timely and everything was done “up to spec” per the instructions and walkthrough we did. And our cats were nice and happy when we got home!

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.
