“Meredith is wonderful. She is caring and kind. She managed to befriend our cat within days of meeting. Our cat doesn’t let anyone near with expectation of my mother and me. The cat came out to greet and play with her every day. We were so happy. We felt very comfortable with her in home. Thank you Meredith.”
“Timothy is very prompt, patient, and thorough with his drop in visits. Showed up on time and made sure to hit all his items on the punch list I gave him. My dog can be very excitable and he was very patient with her. I was very worried about leaving my babygirl with a stranger and he put all my worries at ease. I will definitely be using Timothy in the future.”
“Leanne was great with our 2 cats. I was able to text her while I was away, & that allowed me to enjoy my trip more because I knew the cats were being taken care of. The cats really loved her; our shy one came right up to her! She even gave them treats & brought in our mail. Great job!!”

About: I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with the care, attention, and companionship they need. I am patient, responsible, and dependable. Whether it's walking, playing, keeping them company, or following their daily routine, I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, so I have flexible availability throughout the week. I am available on weekdays after work and on weekends. I will make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care during every visit. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions, keep pets in a safe environment, and provide regular updates with photos. I will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and the same care I would give my own.
“Lauren was very responsive and took many photos during her drop-in visit with my dog. It made me feel so much better knowing my dog was able to stretch his legs while I was away. Thank you so much!!”
“Julie is the absolute best! My two boys love her, and she always goes above and beyond. Her communication is great, and I feel at ease knowing they’re in great hands. As always, thank you Julie.”
About: Having grown up with many animals, I have a genuine love for providing pets with care, attention, and the compassion they deserve. I am dependable, responsible and empathetic to the needs of animals. I understand the importance of keeping pets in a routine to maintain their heath and happiness. My goal is to provide your pet with compassionate care and help the pet owner ease the anxiety that comes with having to leave their pet for any length of time. I am currently reducing my work hours to part-time which gives me more flexibility throughout the day. I am flexible and accessible to most suggested time frames. I am currently not offering care services from my home. I feel that most animals thrive when sticking to familiar surroundings and routines. I aim to leave the condition of your home as is or improved upon by my visit. Shoes off, Paws wiped clean, etc.
“Hailey was professional and thorough! She sent great pictures each day and really made us feel at ease that our cats were well-cared for during our vacation. We will be using her services again in the future!”
“Finding Nancy has been such a blessing. Words I would use to describe her are: professional, prompt, honest, thorough, caring, and compassionate. I have used her services twice now, and feel at ease knowing she is taking care of my babies. I received daily pictures and notifications from her, and anytime I contacted her she was quick to respond, day or night. She is a keeper in my book and if you are in need of pet care, I give her 5 stars ⭐️”

“This was my first time using Rover or someone I didn’t know to take care of my cat. I was very nervous. Megan was excellent. She was available at very short notice & did a great job with a very fussy cat. I will definitely look to her again should I need someone to look after my girl. She even went through some extreme weather to make sure my pet was fed. She was dedicated.”

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.
