“Thank you! George seemed very happy when Haylee visited him durning my trip. Everything was completed as requested during her visits. Definitely would recommend Haylee to care for George again!”
“Maggie was the first Rover sitter I ever booked with, and I have been a repeat customer since. She is so easy to work with, and she goes above and beyond in all aspects. She is very communicative and intentional in her care for animals. I receive adorable pictures of my cat and very thorough updates each visit, so I always feel comfortable and trust that my animal is in incredible hands with Maggie. The litter box stays fresh, her bowls stay refilled and clean, and she spends her visits playing and getting to know your animal as much as they’ll allow. My cat once had a small accident outside the litter box and Maggie didn’t hesitate to deep clean the mess. I also once had to leave town for a last minute family emergency, and Maggie was incredibly understanding and helpful with scheduling visits If you’re a first time Rover user or frequently book on the app, I highly recommend Maggie.”
“Catherine is so sweet. She did a great job caring for my babies. She also brought in packages and broke down a box for me. Definitely went above and beyond!”
“Carrin was a fantastic cat sitter! She was punctual with her visits, a great communicator and very proactive about everything, making sure that each visit was smooth. While away from our pets, her detailed updates were really appreciated (along with lots of pictures)!”
About: Hello my name is Blake and I am a veterinary student starting veterinary school in 2027. I grew up with veterinarians as parents and took care of a wide range of animals and I am comfortable administering medication. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and love caring for them and will treat your pets just like my family! I also have pet reptiles and fish and have experience with many species of small mammals and birds if you have any exotic pets that also need care. I am happy to play with your dogs and cats, go for walks, do home visits, feed your pets, administer medication, clean litter boxes, and whatever else you may need. I have a more flexible schedule until I start veterinary school and can be available most days. If you need pet care at odd times I can probably fit you into my schedule. I have a fenced yard at my house and have a friendly golden retriever, Trinity. If I board your dog they will have a friend to hang out with while you’re gone and will be in safe hands!
“Joe is my go to sitter. He is incredible with my semi-difficult cat and is extremely flexible, I cannot recommend him enough. Look no further everything will be taken care of with utmost care!”
“Best pet sitter!! She has watched my cat a couple times now and always keeps in the loop with what is going on while I am away and sends lots of updates and pictures/videos. She goes above and beyond to clean litter or hair shedding up before I come home for my trip, and has even done me a favor by going back to my apartment and topping up on food/water when my flight has been delayed. 10/10 would recommend and use whenever I have to leave my kitty!”
“Cassie was amazing! Super punctual, thorough and took great care of my cat that is super wary of strangers. She also accepted the booking with late notice, only a day or two before it started, which was so so nice of her.”
About: I have a Saint Bernard, three cats and a fish tank! I’ve had animals since I was born. I love them more than anything! They are my babies and I will make sure your babies are taken care of. I’m experienced in giving animals injections and medications as all my pets need all the above. I’ve also had small dogs as well. So I’m well experienced in all sizes! I’ve baby sat for many friends and family members who have asked me to return watching their fur babies many times. I’m extremely punctual, over communicate, and follow instructions that are provided to me. I’m not afraid to pick up the phone to call you incase I have a questions or concern! I’ve been told I’m loyal and very trustworthy. I currently quit the corporate world and I work for my fiancées company here at my own home! I’m available almost all the time! I will care for your pet in your own home! I’m comfortable going into new places and getting to know your fur baby. I feed and walk mine 3x a day as well as give them shots daily and give them medication. I’ve also taken care of many dogs and cats from friends and family who have asked me back many times!
“Irina is absolutely amazing! First, she saved us when we had a last-minute cancellation. She responded quickly, allowing us to go on our vacation as planned. Second, this was the first time we left our cat, Bearchik, with someone else. Bearchik is a shy cat who usually hides from strangers, but he warmed up to Irina immediately. She took exceptional care of him, going above and beyond by not only attending to his needs but also playing with him. Every day, Bearchik greeted her and even accompanied her to the stairs. I will definitely ask Irina to cat-sit Bearchik again and highly recommend her to others. She is professional, adores cats, and the feeling is clearly mutual!”
“Brooke was super accommodating with my last-minute request! She was great with my shy cat and kept me updated with pics and status updates. So glad she could help!”
“Allison was awesome! She was very prompt, communicative, and easy to work with. She took great care of our German Shepherd pup while we were out for a couple of days. Would definitely have her watch him again!”
“Aylin was amazing as usual! She takes great care of our two cats while we are out of town. It’s so nice to come home to happy cats and a clean home. We feel lucky to have found Aylin and definitely recommend her.”
“Langley felt right at home during a trial visit with Pamela. We are so thankful to have such a wonderful person to care for our sweet girl when we’re out of town. Thanks again, Pamela!”
About: I have over 15 years of animals experience with large and small furry friends (horses, dogs, cats, and small critters). I currently am the proud owner of a 6 year old pit mix and 2 year year old pit bull. I have owned animals since I was 7. I love all breeds of dogs, but have a soft spot for larger dogs and "aggressive" breeds. I live in an extremely dog friendly neighborhood with a park within walking distance. I also live within a 25 minute walk to a fenced in dog park or approximately 5 minute drive. I grew up with a chocolate lab and English bulldog. Both passed away from old age. I will treat your furry friend(s) like family. I guarantee excellent care. I have a very flexible schedule. My main job now is pet sitting and dog walking. I work from home most days and my weekends are available Pet friendly condo building with access to park, enclosed dog park and close to dog beach. I do haha two cats that love dogs. Not sure how they are with other cats, but I am able to stay over nights
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was a child. When I say “pets” I mean it, I’ve owned and cared for a wide spectrum, filled with cats, dogs, hamsters, fish and horses. To be completely transparent, I lost my Cane Corso late January 23’ to cancer 😫😭. I am not 100% ready to commit to getting another extra-large fur baby but I already miss having one around my house. Stoked to step into the cool “auntie” to your furry loved one(s). I truly enjoy caring for animals and would love the opportunity to share my heart with theirs even if just for a passing moment. Would love to walk your pups which hey gives me some more extra steps in my day or drop in and feed and love on either cats or dogs, hamsters, snakes. ALL ANIMALS LIVES MATTER! TRUST ME…YOUR BABY(IES) GONNA LOOOOOVE ME! I currently work from home almost daily so I can attend to basically your pets every need. I go on multiple walks during day myself so having some company is always best and motivating for me or I can take to park in my neighborhood that is dog friendly. If I have free time I can hop over to a true dog park if that’s cool with you too. If I am watching your kiki I can definitely give them as much space and/or attention, “spattention” as I like to define it, as per their want 😂 I live in an apartment but it’s in a very walkable part of town. I am ready to shower your fur babies with TLC. I am right down the street from White Rock Lake and can take your pups to the park if they so desire!
About: Most recently had two yellow labs both over 100 pounds and at the same time an orange cat. I am looking forward to caring for your family member and making a new friend with them. I am also a horticulturist and can take care of your plants while you’re gone as well. I currently work full time so I would be free during lunch and after work to check on your babies. I can also take care of them most weekends. My cat is too jealous for me to invite others over so I would prefer to come to your house. I’d love for them to sleep over but that’s not in the cards
“Amanda was exceptional. There is no question that my cat, Ishta, was in tender, loving, and responsible hands. Amanda sent updates multiple times throughout each day including feedings, water checks, litter box, snacks, play, and wellbeing. These updates included multiple photos reinforcing the updates. She was so thorough. Moreover, the house was clean and tidy upon returning. She made the bed, the kitchen and bathroom were clean as I left it, etc. Lastly, she left an adorable little cat sponge that she used to clean Ishta’s dishes. It was a thoughtful touch. This was my first time using her services (3 consecutive overnight stays). I will unquestionably be using Amanda again. She was next level.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - University Park
I had such a great experience with Maya! She took amazing care of Autumn while I was away and made the entire process so easy and stress-free. Her communication was excellent, and I absolutely loved getting so many pictures and updates throughout my trip! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Autumn was happy and in great hands. I travel frequently for work, so finding someone reliable and trustworthy is really important to me. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter!
Rory is THE best. She is incredibly reliable and communicative and does a great job checking in on my cats whenever I am away. One of my cats requires an inhaler twice a day, and Rory always does exactly as required. I really have such a piece of mine whenever I am out of town because I know my cats are in great hands. And, they love her!
Michael was so great with my boys that I've already booked with him again. He sent photos, videos, and updates with every visit. My cats can be a little shy at first but I could tell from the videos that warmed up to him very quickly. I could tell they were in good hands which helped make my trip more enjoyable, since I didn't have to worry about them. When I got home, both of my guys were calm and relaxed. Clean litter box, clean food dishes, and a full, clean water fountain. I can't recommend Michael enough.
Trynne is the best!! She always goes above and beyond to care for our cats. She also sends very detailed updates and takes the best pictures. You can genuinely tell that Trynne has a passion for animals. My kitties and I look forward to our next visit with her! 🤍

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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

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 , 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-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 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 reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
