“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with our cats! She went beyond our expectations! I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She also left detailed entries and photos for each visit. I would highly recommend her for any cat sitting needs!”
“Christy is excellent. she was prompt, courteous, cool and easy going. followed all the directions we left for our kittens and even stepped up and cared for our tarantula! one of our cats is a BIG scaredy cat and likes no one but us…Christy had her out and about and playing with her within…like a day. she’s the real deal. we will certainly give her a call next time we go on holiday and so should you! thank you big time, Christy! 🫶🏽🩷”
“Erin did a fantastic job watching our two cats for a week. She was attentive and responsive, asking clarification questions during the meet and greet and provided updates during the week. Both of our cats have specific feeding instructions, which were followed without issue. Erin even came to care for our cats during a crazy rain storm, which was much appreciated! We would definitely book her again!”
About: I came from another country and brought my pets with me, and I have faced how hard is to find someone who takes care of them. Let me help you and your furry family as it is my own. I work from home in a flexible schedule and can accommodate several days and times for walks and drop-in visits. I drive so I can get to your family in a timely manner. With two dogs at home I am aware of the importance of a good walk, feeding and water refresh, and Ron, my cat, reminded me of how important is to have a fresh litterbox and a safe environment for all.
“Melaina made our international trip away from our two girl cats so worry-free. She was so responsive to every message and went above and beyond, taking her own initiative to clean the litter box and throw away trash as if it was her own house and her own pets. Our cats were nice and comfy under her care. Book her!”
About: I have always been a pet person. I’ve lived my whole life always having a pet. Whether that’s dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, or even fish! I love all animals and have even done wildlife rehab rescues. I’ve had experience dog sitting as well as dog walking. I know that every dog is different so I adjust to every pets needs, no two dogs are the same and every one is special in their own way :) My schedule is pretty flexible as I do a lot of remote work. I do take some classes in the city at night but easily commute! Weekdays i'm available in the mornings and afternoons till however late is necessary. Weekends my schedule is practically wide open! My personal at home routine with my animals includes walks, food, water, play time,and anything in between! I have a large fenced in yard that my dog loves to run around in! I have a car too if any transport is needed, equipped with safety for dogs in the car! When I take dogs for walks I always bring a travel water bottle for them as well as snacks! I place a huge importance on dogs safety and health so on walks I will always go with the dogs pace and never push them past their limits, on really hot days we will stop for shade and water breaks!
About: I grew up always surrounded by pets. I have experience walking, feeding and bathing dogs ever since I was a little kid. I’m also experienced with kittens because of my own three that I have cared for. Im working part time past 5pm so Im usually always available during the afternoons and mornings for visits. Including during weekends. I don’t mind anytime up to 5pm. I can easily crate and uncrate dogs as well as walking and feeding. I’m relatively experienced in those areas and there’s not much I can’t do. I can also care for cats, even clean litter boxes
“Ellie was a terrific sitter who sent adorable pictures of our babies. I felt totally relieved knowing she was taking care of them. She has a warm, communicative personality and she even came back after the sit to leave them extra food when requested. I highly recommend her!”
“We had a great and positive experience with Patrick who is kind, caring and reliable. We also received regular updates and pictures which made us at ease that our pet was well taken care of while we were away. I would totally re-hire Patrick’ services in the near future.”
“Molly was great with my cat who she boarded for close to two weeks. She sent me regular updates and videos of him. It was also an added bonus that she had her own cats which was delightful company for him.”
About: As a kid, my family would often take care of our friend's dogs, but we never had one of our own. Now, I'm a dad of three young humans and one bundle of fluff named Simba. Oh and let's not forget Victoria, our rabbit. We love havinganimals, and we still love watching other people's animals too. I'm also offering to house-sit, and take other people's dogs (either solo or with my Simba) for walks. I mostly work from home and never leave a dog alone while in my care. We take several walks per day, including morning, lunch, and at least two in the evening. I have a comfortable living space, a nice yard area, nice green space and a park nearby. When dogsitting, I take very little space for myself and leave the space better than when I found it.
“Brandon F. was FANTASTIC! He gave regular updates and sent photos of our Lucy to us. It was so great to be able to relax and know that our beloved pet was in good hands with Brandon. Would absolutely book him again!”
About: Erin, lifelong dog owner (since 2001!), enjoys providing loving care and adventurous walks. Walks her Siberian Husky, Skylar, daily and is passionate about canine companionship. I love taking long walks and enjoying the outdoors. I just moved back to the tri-state area and I currently have a very open schedule for dog walking and pet sitting. * In my client's home: I stick to their pet's routine as much as possible to minimize stress. This includes feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and medication (if applicable). I also provide lots of love and cuddles to keep your furry friend happy! * I can't wait to meet your pet and learn about their unique personality!

I’ve contacted Bianca twice now, once to walk my dog as well as a friends dog, and most recently to care for my cat while I was away for 9 days. Both times she was exceptionally communicative and reliable. I came home to well cared for animals both times, and her check-ins made sure I wasn’t constantly worrying about them while I was away. She’ll absolutely be the first person I go to for pet care in the future.
Melaina went above and beyond caring for our cats! They were so well taken care of—fed, brushed, given plenty of attention, and clearly loved while we were away. When the power went out and she wasn’t able to get in during her first visit, she waited and came back later to make sure she could get in and check on them, making a total of three visits that day. We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful, caring, and reliable sitter!
Dan Bee took great care of Bouji when we travelled for 3 days. Bouji was not yet 1 years old and not used to being alone. Dan Bee took time each visit to find her (hiding!) and engage her and give her attention and socialization, in addition to taking care of water and food and litter. I could enjoy my time away knowing Bouji was in good hands.

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 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 .

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.
