“Carol came over to feed our two kitties and was very punctual and followed all of our requests! The kitties seemed to be very well adjusted to having a new friend take care of them.”
“Jeffrey is an attentive, gentle and caring person with terrific communication skills. Working with Jeffrey, I always know my cars are in great hands. I am always so grateful for his photos and updates.”
“Super responsive. Extremely friendly and courteous. Bill was very informative about his process and provided timely updates. He made me feel very comfortable leaving my kitties under his care.”
“Elizabeth stepped in to care for my kitty at the last minute. I am so happy she was available and that she did an amazing job! I recommend her to care for your fur babies! 🥰”
“Kerri and Harry were amazing with our 6 year old void cat, Luna! This is the first time we went away and she was all alone, as her buddy contracted lymphoma and had to be put to sleep 2 weeks earlier. At first, Luna was hiding under the bed, but ny the end of the week, was playing and purring and eating! They are amazing and we highly recommend!!!”
“Stephanie was excellent! I had to book last minute because my other Rover Sitter cancelled, and she was able to quickly make a stop in visit to meet my cat. I received pictures and updates about everything that was going on. It just made my vacation so much more relaxing knowing that I had someone as attentive as Stephanie watching my cat!”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’m always excited to meet a new furry friend! I grew up with dogs and have cared for pups of all different sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog is full of energy and ready for a long walk or would rather spend the day playing, getting belly rubs, and hanging out, I’m happy to keep them company! Friends and family have trusted me with their dogs when they’re away, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. I’m always ready for walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. My goal is to make sure your pup has a fun, happy day while you’re away! ♡ I’m currently working towards a masters and my classes are all at night. This gives me lots of flexibility to spend time with your pets during the day! I’m available for walks, drop ins, and visits throughout the weekdays, times when your pet might otherwise be home alone. Weekend availability varies, so feel free to reach out and I’ll be happy to let you know what I can accommodate. ⚠️ Quick Note on House Sitting | Boarding My standard overnight house sitting rate includes overnight care and plenty of time with your pet throughout the day, as long as they’re comfortable being left alone for up to 3 hours. This allows me to occasionally step out for groceries, errands, or other short bookings. If your pet needs constant care and cannot be left alone due to medical needs, recovery, puppyhood, or separation anxiety, just let me know before booking! I’m happy to discuss their needs and arrange an hourly rate for constant care. I have pets of my own, so I know how important it is to leave them with someone you trust. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and whatever care they need. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. 🐾
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 13. I have 5 years experience working in 2 different dog daycares watching dogs from all sizes, providing meds, cleaning up after them, and feeding them. I am also dog behavior certified. I am currently a full time student completing my masters degree online so that means plenty of flexibility within my schedule. I am able to work M-F from 7-5pm and can stop by for night check ins for up to 30 min to an hour for dinner feeds and nightly walks. I care for your pets by stopping by up to 3x a day for tummy rubs, daily feedings and snacks, and lots of walks to get both our steps in!
“Dana was an excellent drop-in sitter for our cat while we were away! She was extremely friendly and professional. She sent us pictures of him each time she visited and left very nice comments letting us know what she did each time she was there. I would highly recommend Dana as a pet sitter. I will definitely be using Dana again in the future! Thank you very much Dana for taking such great care of our very vocal boy while we were gone!”
“Kristi watched my two cats this week and was amazing!! I would definitely hire her in the future. She was quick to respond to messages and always provided great photos and recaps of her visits with my babies! I felt so much less stress this vacation knowing I could trust her to take care my cats. Thank you Kristi!”
About: Hi there! I’m Sophie, I am a firm believer in using walks and playtime to bond with a dog and get them more comfortable with me. (That’s how I won over the puppy that replaced me when I went to college). I have a similar philosophy towards cats, but with a whole lot more playtime and a whole lot less outside time 😆. I am a recent college graduate and I’m working on my applications to get a job in my field, so I have time to spend all day with your pet. Just let me know what you need! Whatever works for you, I can do! I have no set schedule so I can come by any time. I do prefer to make my visits at least an hour long so they have the chance to get used to me. I will work with what’s available to me. If I’m visiting your home to keep them company I will play with their favorite toys and find their favorite spots to hang out in. I’ll play with their dogs outside if you have a fence, and I try to let them guide where we go on walks.
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Diane to check in on our dog, Riley, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, Diane demonstrated a genuine love for animals and a high level of professionalism. She was in tune with Riley’s needs and followed all the instructions we provided for feeding, watering and caring for Riley. Diane sent photos and an update from her check in visit which gave us peace of mind, knowing Riley was in good hands. I highly recommend Diane Hanna to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Thank you Diane for taking such good care of Riley!”
“Kim and Paul took excellent care of our two cats over Thanksgiving. They shared great pictures of the cats and everybody was happy when we returned. We felt like the boys and our home were in good hands.”
About: For many years, I have provided cat care for friends and family, neighbors whenever they traveled, worked long hours, or needed extra help with their pets. Through these experiences, I have cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, from affectionate lap cats who love attention to shy and independent cats who prefer a quieter approach. My responsibilities have included feeding according to specific schedules, refreshing water, and cleaning litter boxes. In addition to meeting their basic needs, I enjoy spending quality time with cats through play, enrichment activities, and companionship. I have experience using interactive toys, engaging energetic cats in active play, and giving extra patience and reassurance to nervous or newly adopted cats. I am also comfortable caring for multiple cats in the same household and making sure each one receives individual attention. Friends and family trust me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care while they are away. I treat every cat as if they were my own, focusing on their comfort, safety, and well-being so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m available every day of the week to provide reliable and attentive care for your cat. Whether your cat needs daily visits, feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help. When caring for your cat in your home, I make every effort to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, and spend quality time with your cat through play, affection, or quiet companionship based on their personality and preferences.
“Caitlyn is great! Very quick responses, set up a meet and greet within a day, and was on time and sent pictures for each visit. Would for sure book again and probably will for our next vacation! Highly recommended”
“Kayla was great with my dog. He is older and can be a little stand-offish but she was very patient and understanding. She was communicative and let me know exactly how they were doing. I would definitely hire her again!”

Hayley went above and beyond! One of my dogs had some GI distress while we were away—Hayley completely cleaned up the area, even rolled up my rug!! She was amazing, I wasn’t anticipating any issues so I didn’t leave out all the cleaning supplies etc—-she was very resourceful and I felt completely confident in her assessments of the situation. We eliminated the offending item and dogs got back on track! She was amazing!!!
Carol is wonderful to work with. She came over before I left on a trip to make sure everything was ok, check on the animals and any special needs they may have had and get the key in advance to ensure no problems. She was able to easily care for my cats and even cleaned up when one of the cats was violently sick outside the litter box. She sent pictures of both animals at every visit (2X a day for over a week) and helped assuage any anxiety I had about leaving them. 10/10 - absolutely trustworthy and able to care for elderly and even younger cats.

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.

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.
