“We are so grateful for the wonderful care Rylee gave our dogs while we were away. She was incredibly kind, reliable, always on time, and communicated with us every step of the way. The pictures and updates she sent meant so much to us and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. It's clear she genuinely loves animals, and we felt completely comfortable trusting her with our dogs. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”
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.
“Shayla was very dependable and a great caretaker for my cat while I was away. She followed instructions and cared for my sweet cat. I had no worries knowing my cat was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been taking care of pets my entire life. I have raised several stray dogs and cats and have also had several litters of dogs that I ended up keeping! I have adopted pets on numerous occasions and welcome all their different personalities. I work full time, Monday-Friday, however my schedule allows me to be very flexible. I am generally always free on the weekends. I am flexible. I have three dogs who are all rescues at my home, so I will unfortunately only be able to visit your pets at your home.
“Amber is consistent, reliable and great with my fur kids. She comes daily and has also come last minute to get me out of a bind. Highly recommend and the kids love her.”
“Wonderful care! Messaged about how our dogs were responding to a new person from the beginning of their care, which was especially helpful since we just moved and were going out of town. Sent pics and updates of the care provided throughout!”

About: I believe dogs are one of God's best creations as they bring so much joy and happiness in cute, snuggly form. They are smart and hilarious, and each one has a unique personality. I believe in simple boundaries with them and rewards for good behavior, with space for relaxation and some for play time. My schedule is very flexible which gives me freedom to take your dog for a morning walk, play with them mid-day, feed them dinner, or just hang out. My friends have trusted me to drop in during their busy work days for years. When boarding your dog at our home, I will often play with the dog inside where it's cool, and take them for leashed walks through our neighborhood. We do not have a fence so there is no outside free roaming at this time.
“We had an amazing experience working with Cristen. Her and her family are very welcoming and have great communication. Very easy family to work with, we extended our stay 2x and were happy that Cristen is so flexible with her availability. Thank you Cristen!”
“Irene was fantastic! I was surprised to see how comfortable my cat, Chloe, was around her. Chloe is usually very shy and rarely lets strangers pet her, but she allowed Irene to do so. Irene took great care of Chloe, and I would 100% book her again!”
“Anna was amazing, I am so happy me & my fur babies found her here to drop in and care for them. Papas was an absolute h with her and loved her. My Gigi is super shy but seemed to be less stressed over time, can’t wait till she trusts Anna. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Anna for being great and kind to Papas & Gigi”

I personally have a small dog, a Maltipoo Terrier, but other family members have mediums sized and big dogs as well! I love taking my dog on walks and playing with her. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best take care of your animal! I am currently working a part-time job and am looking to make some extra money and play with animals, so I have enough time for dog walking, house sitting, and house calls! I am available most nights for house sitting and walking or just drop ins depending on when I get the message! I love to just sit down and play with them, either with their toys or just running around, and hanging out and chilling with them! I make sure they are fed, hydrated, clean, and loved!

From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and even bath time, I’m experienced with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m patient with shy pups, energetic with playful ones, and always make sure each fur baby feels loved and safe while their parents are away. I am a housewife with no kids in my life now. That means I get a lot of time for myself and your lovely pets. So my calendar is pretty free at day time also including some holidays. Free to ask!

I’m attentive, reliable, and can follow any special routines or instructions to make sure your pet feels secure and cared for—just like they would with you.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have had both dogs and cats my entire life. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family whenever they’re away, making sure their pets are cared for, comfortable, and loved while they’re gone. I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur babies behind, so I always treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾❤️ I currently on maternity leave, which gives me even more availability to provide attentive and loving care for your pets. I’m happy to work with different schedules and make sure your pets get the care, attention, and exercise they need throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I also send plenty of pictures and videos so you can see how your fur baby is doing and have peace of mind while you’re gone. I lost my own dog this year, and being around animals has always brought me so much happiness, so I truly enjoy being able to give that same love and care to other pets. My home also has a fully fenced backyard where pets can safely enjoy some outdoor time, along with a medium-sized dog crate if needed. 🐾❤️

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.
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. :)
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 .
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 , 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 .

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