“Ashley did a great job and went above and beyond what we asked of her. I knew my sweet kitties were in great hands. She was on time for each visit and took great care of them and the house.”
“Kimberly did a fantastic job watching our cats. This was our first Rover experience and we couldn’t be more pleased. She sent pictures daily and made me feel very confident that they were being well taken care of. Thank you Kimberly!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child. I had 6 large dogs I would take care of on top of a pet sitting business I ran when I was 15. I have experience with exotic animals as well as cats and dogs! I have lots of energy and I promise your pet won't realize you were gone until you come back! I am in between jobs and I am a mom! I am available any time that I am not having to pick up my son from school. (7:10 am and 3:30pm) But I can be available around those times! Depending on requirements, crating your fur baby won't be an issue. However, while I am there I will be by them at all times. I will make sure if they are outside so am I! If you would like walking time, I will come over to make sure I know how your harness/collar works before ever trying on my own.
“Jasmine was awesome and I would definitely use her services for my outdoor cat again! She made sure to send me detailed updates every day along with pictures. She is very friendly, great with animals, and easy to talk to, I would recommend her to anyone who needs help caring for their pets!”
“Pamela is wonderfully thorough and thoughtful! She always checks on everything for each visit, takes lots of pictures, and sends a summary after each visit. I’ve had her watch my cats twice and will definitely be doing so again in the future!”
“AnnaMaria did a wonderful job dropping in on my cat, Mr. Steve. Prompt, trustworthy, and super helpful with last minute adjustments. Everything went smoothly from start to finish! Would book again.”
“Brianna was an amazing sitter for my three kitties! She clearly loves cats and took care of my cats like they were her own. I 100% trust her to take care of them anytime I need a sitter when I'm traveling. She does exactly what is requested and provides a thorough update each day along with pictures. I highly recommend Brianna for your pet sitting needs! You can totally trust her to care for your babies and home during her drop-in visits. Please don't hesitate to book her for your Rover needs! SHE'S THE BEST!!!”
“Kimberly was the sweetest, for helping me out! She was punctual, kind, considerate, and attentive. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to help out, when my last minute cancellation came from someone else, leaving me to scramble and make sure everything would be ok. It was; she went above and beyond, and I am grateful for people like her. Thank you so much!”
“Lauren was great!! She brought in a package ? of litter for me and used it to fill up the box, as I asked her to when cleaning it. Lauren was extremely patient and helpful with me when my schedule started spiraling out of control...lol ? I came home to very happy kitties, who were obviously well taken care of!! I will definitely use her next time!! ?”
“Philana is a true professional while also being very personable. She took great care of my 3 cats, plants, and was considerate in brining in a delivery. I booked with her very short notice, the day before, and she truly exceeded my expectations! Very thankful to her and the care she provided. 10/10 recommend!”
“Sophia is so sweet and thoughtful! We will continue to book her for our pups! She is kind, cares about our dogs, follows our instructions super well, and communicates with us throughout the time she is with them.”
“I am so happy to have Angela cat sit for us! This is the second time we have had her watch our cats, and I know from her updates that they are well looked after. So lucky to have found her on Rover!”

Brianna worked her magic on these two cats which being old and set in their ways, they are more relaxed and pleasant. In fact, when I returned they me met me at the door, I think they expected Brianna, as it was close to the visit time. I know she worked hard to get Nala out from under the bead and is acting more relaxed. This is surely the type of care giver we desire to look after our four-legged friends.
Kimberly has watched our animals multiple times. She always goes above and beyond to make sure they are cared for. When she arrived at our house this last time, she found water all over our kitchen! She cleaned everything out under the sink, turned our water off, dried every off, and put our rugs outside to dry. I can’t imagine the mess we would have been in if she did not take care of this for us. We are so thankful for her help!
Jasmine was awesome and I would definitely use her services for my outdoor cat again! She made sure to send me detailed updates every day along with pictures. She is very friendly, great with animals, and easy to talk to, I would recommend her to anyone who needs help caring for their pets!
It’s been a few months since we had Angela cat sit for us. Since she had been her before, she was ok w us leaving a key hidden and photo instructions since it had been months since she has seen our cats. Cleo always comes out because she is social, but was so thrilled that our shy girl Luna came out for Angela as it takes a few visits. She came out after a few minutes and again today. I always will use Angela for our cats, she’s a great asset to the Rover app! Thank you for the wonderful care, as always!
5/5 Stars – Highly Recommended! Elizabeth did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my cat. From our very first interaction, it was clear that she is a true animal lover who treats pets with the utmost care and respect. She was incredibly reliable and followed all feeding and care instructions perfectly. What I appreciated most were the regular updates and photos she sent, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My cat, who can sometimes be shy around new people, warmed up to her and enjoyed her attention. Elizabeth went above and beyond to make sure my cat felt safe, loved, and comfortable. I cannot thank Elizabeth enough for her exceptional service. I will absolutely be hiring her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!
Mandy and her husband were fantastic! Our dog and cat loved them. My cat needs two pills a day and can be fussy with it, and Mandy was able to give him his pill with ease. I always received a ton a pictures of our fur babies which was amazing. I definitely recommend Mandy!!

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.

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 .
