“Madison did a great job! Our cats are shy and because she stayed at the house they got more comfortable with her. She fed fish and misted the snake cage, too. Definitely recommend!”
“Abby played with our kitten and petted our older cat. She sent good reports and photos. Abby followed feeding and snack instructions exactly as we gave them to her. She went above and beyond by washing their dishes and scooping cat litter.”

She followed all instructions, sent tons of pictures that made us so happy while away, and even was extremely patient and communicative during a situation where our electric front door locked wouldn’t open! Would absolutely recommend and book again! So happy we found them!”

She’s super cooperative, and has great communication! My cat is not the most friendly to strangers, but I deeply appreciated her patience for him! Thank you Adrienne!”
“Kim was amazing. I had no worries about my cats at all knowing that they were in such great hands. So easy to communicate with, and she updated me daily with a photo and a report. If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, look no further. I will definitely be using Kim again in the future!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up around pets for as long as I can remember! I’m someone who is patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m always willing to learn what makes your pet feel the most comfortable and happy. When I’m taking care of your pets, my priority is making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether that means going on a walk, playing outside, getting some extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get the attention they deserve! I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and personalities, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I also understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person taking care of your fur babies, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure you know how they’re doing. I’m currently a student and would love to spend some of my free time caring for animals! I’m dependable, flexible, and excited to meet some new furry friends. 🐶🤍 I’d love the opportunity to take care of your pets and treat them like they’re my own! I have classes Monday–Friday, but my schedule varies throughout the week. Mondays I’m in class from 9 AM–5 PM, Tuesdays from 11 AM–12:30 PM, Wednesdays until 8 PM, Thursdays until 5 PM, and Fridays until 3 PM. I’m completely free on weekends and am also happy to work with the gaps between my classes during the week. I’m flexible and would love to find a schedule that works best for you and your pets! Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I will make sure they are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including their walking routes, feeding schedule, medications, and any specific rules you have for your home or pets. I’m also very mindful of their environment and will keep doors and gates securely closed, watch for anything that could be unsafe, and never leave your pet unattended in an unfamiliar or risky situation. I’ll treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect that I would want someone to show my own home. Most importantly, I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well cared for while you’re away!

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
