“Michele was great! Took good care of my baby, and was always quick to reply to messages. :) I'd recommend her to others and will likely book with her again in the future!”
“It was great working with Preeya. She was very patient and attentive with my shy, hard-to-approach cat, who usually hides from anyone outside the family. Thank you so much for your help during our trip. I hope your studies are going well!”
“So thankful we found Christine on Rover! She was very compassionate and caring with our cats while we were away. We loved the meet and greet and daily photos and updates!”
About: I'm a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother of four, and I have one dog (yellow lab mix) and two cats! I love animals and since we are home majority of the time, your pet will have ample love, attention, and care. MY entire downstairs is tile and we have a backyard, so puppies still needing house training would be acceptable. I'm happy to walk/run with dogs, care for cats, come to your home to do check ins, whatever you're looking for, just ask! I have taken care of animals for family, and I appreciate any details or notes you have so I can provide the very best quality of care for your individual pet. I am home majority of the day with my kids. I have young kids ages 5-11 and I homeschool, so we are home most of the time. I take our dog on a walk or run in the morning around 7am or earlier, and again in the evening if the weather is nice. I have plenty of time for loving and caring for your pet! I offer care in our home, or in yours depending on your needs. Your pet will be exercised, fed, watered, loved, played with, cleaned up after, and all around cared for and adored. I can only provide care to animals who are okay with children and other pets, to keep everyone safe from natural pet instincts to protect themselves. My children have been taught to use only gentle and loving hands with slow approach with adult supervision. In the event we need to leave the house I do require kenneling for dogs if they are known to chew/scratch. I am happy to provide pictures and updates, so that you can rest assured your pet is happy and thriving while you are away.
About: I’m so grateful to have always been surrounded by furry family members as my household has never been without the wonderful presence of dogs, cats, or even various rodents/reptiles/birds throughout the years 😂 So, while 20+ years of personal experience may technically be accurate, I’d say that a majority of my experience was gained within the past 8 years: learning and experiencing responsibility, hardship, and companionship through my own kitties and doggos, volunteering at cat shelters, and overnight dog sitting for family members with variously aged pets. Through these opportunities, I was able to gain experience with a wide range of pets from energetic puppies that love to chew and play all day to senior dogs that may need meds given or diapers changed and shy/scared kitties that need lots of patience and kindness to playful cats that want constant attention and affection :) I'm excited to become part of your pets' lives whether that consists of play time and pets during a check-in or cuddles on the couch while I keep them company overnight! I would love to become your pet’s new best friend! I work part time at a couple of jobs, but that won’t stop me from doing whatever I can to fit you and your fur baby’s into my schedule ☺️✨ I have experience with many types of dogs and cats through growing up surrounded by them, getting to meet many others in cat shelters while volunteering, and family members' homes during overnight dog sitting. As a result, I am very used to cleaning litter boxes or various pet messes, sticking to feeding, med, or bed time routines and schedules, and dealing with pets that may not always be on their best behavior or are nervous meeting a stranger. Other than that, I am quick to reply and can give you frequent updates with pictures on the well-being of your loved ones!
“Excellent care and attention to Wolfy as always. I always know he is in wonderful hands when Krysten takes care of him. Highly recommend for all your pet needs. A++++++++”
“Dani was great for keeping us posted on our pets. They seemed very relaxed with her. She's very thorough and gets to know your pets. We will definitely use her again when we need a pet sitter.”
“Kimberly did a wonderful job! She sent pictures, walked the dogs, and when we came home I could tell that all the food and water had been looked after! I especially appreciated her taking the time to play with the dogs too! Definitely will hire her again!”
“Everything was purrfectly perfect, Daizy takes such good care of our cats and our home and we appreciate having her as our preferred pet sitter, thank you again Daizy we will see you next month!”
“Stevie was an instant hit with my kitty. She did a great job of following instructions for daily care and playing with my cat in ways that have been proven favorites. Even made sure the cat TV channel feed going each visit. Highly recommend!”
“Annabella was amazing! She went above and beyond to care for our cat Loki while we were on vacation. The night we left, our fire alarms became defective and kept setting off until our maintenance team could come fix them the next day. Annabella stayed extra long during her visit to reassure Loki and comfort him. Our litter robot also had a connection issue, and she was able to reset it & set up an emergency litter box I had shipped to the home. The fire alarm situation caused me a lot of anxiety at the beginning of the trip, but the daily updates and photos from Annabella made me feel so much better and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the rest of our trip, knowing our boy was in good hands! We would definitely rebook with her on future trips. :)”
“Mackenzie came over before our trip to make sure she understood all our cats needs. She completed all tasks every time she visited! Her scheduled was flexible and was able to come after I had packages arriving to take inside.”
“Stephanie was fantastic with our kitties, Bella, Luna and Neo. We received updates and photos daily. Neo absolutely adored Stephanie and looked for her everyday. He even looked for days after our return. We would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a sitter for their cats or dogs. Thank you again Stephanie! You're the best.”
“Always a relief to know Laura will be checking in on our cat each day we are out of town!! She does such a great job each time and our cat loves her!! We lover her too!!”
“Chuck did a great job of watching my cat Scaredy and taking good care of her even though I made it much harder by mistakenly leaving my cell phone at home which made it impossible for either of us to get in contact with each other. I am so sorry for doing that and apologies for making such a bad mistake.”
About: Our family has had pets in our home for the last 20 years. We currently have one cat and two dogs, who loves having other dogs come to visit. We'll accept dogs for short stays, daycare, and boarding. We have a big backyard that allows for a lot of ball-throwing and running. Your dog will get lots of love and attention during their stay and will not be left alone. Because we work from home, your pet will get potty breaks and outdoor time whenever they want it. We love puppies and are happy to help with potty training. If you have been working with your dog on learning commands, we will continue that training while they stay with us. We'll update you throughout your pet's stay with pictures of what they've been doing. We look forward to making your pet a part of our family. Drop in visits will include feeding, play time, ball throwing, belly rubs, or whatever it is your pup enjoys. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to do drop-ins throughout the day between 7:00 am and 8:00 pm. I will follow all instructions that are given to me and will keep your pets on any restrictions or routine that they are accustom to.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Waddell
As usual, Beth took amazing care of our medically high maintenance kitties! We have a diabetic boy cat who gets 2 shots a day and a girl cat that has thyroid disease and is very finicky about taking her meds but Beth makes sure they get everything they need when we are out of town. ♥️
We had a great experience with Rylee. She took great care of our cat and dog and I felt at ease on our trip knowing our pets were in good hands! She was reliable and I appreciated all the pictures she sent while we were away. I would definitely rebook Rylee and recommend her for anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!!
Chuck was great at taking care of our cat Trina. She is a challenge because her past life causes her to avoid strangers. Chuck understands all that. We appreciate how neat and clean he kept everything and his photos and reports of his visits. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was taking good care of her so we could finally take a trip that was long overdue.
Our "cat whisperer"!! Our cats love her and wait at the door for her. She has an excellent way for calming them down and showing them love. Our calico, Carly, is very shy, but she approaches Amber from the first meeting. We highly recommend her and have used her services many times. Thank you again Amber!!

I am always so happy when Krysten takes care of my cat Wolfy. I always know he is in loving and caring hands. She not only takes care of him, but also brings in my mail and any other needs Wolfy or I may have. My home looks so clean and untouched when I come home, and Wolfy is calm and content. It gives me a sense of calm during my times away. I highly recommend Krysten when searching for a pet sitter. A+++++++++++++++++++
Laura is awesome! She is super communicative, kind and so attentive to our fur babies and their needs. Loved the photos she sent, too. Laura was flexible and very understanding throughout our booking. When we were unreachable during our trip, she coordinated with our neighbors as needed. Highly recommend and so grateful for her services!
I had a great experience with Caprial. One of my two cats is usually very easily scared and tends to hide around new people, but surprisingly showed no signs of fear around her at all. Both cats seemed comfortable and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter.
Chance did a great job taking care of our two cats while we were away during a holiday weekend. He followed all our instructions, kept the house clean, and sent great updates and photos. He was also very responsive each time I messaged him. I would definitely book with him again!
Dina was very reliable, caring and an effective communicator before, during and after 6-day check ins with my cat. I had full confidence in her during that time period (which included admin of medication) that my cat was well cared for. I will use Dina’s services for any future need.

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 .

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 .
