“Cindy was absolutely wonderful with my senior cat. Great communication. And I loved seeing pics of my cat getting some love while I’m away cause I ALWAYS feel guilty leaving her home. 😸”
“Kelly is an excellent dog sitter. Flash was very happy with Kelly. She is very quick in responding to messages. She is very gentle and soft. She worked for many years as veterinary tech. I highly recommend her to take care of pets.”
“Rachel is fantastic. She was great with my dogs the first meeting. They took to her immediately and were very comfortable with her. She is very responsive and great with them.”
About: I have been taking care of animals (mostly dogs and cats) since I can remember. Growing up we were always the house on the block that our neighbors would bring found animals to, and we'd take care of them until we found their home or our home became theirs. I have always had pets in my life and have been a dog/cat sitter on and off since high school. I bring a calm energy when being introduced to new animals so they don’t feel threatened and we start off on a good note 🤗 I do have a cat, so I will need to go home during the day for an hour or two to feed and play with them a bit before returning to your place. I work remotely so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I have experience giving pets medication and taking care of elderly dog/cats (deaf, blind). Anything specific your pets need, I'll be sure to follow your guidance!
About: I’ve grown up with many dogs ranging from Dachshunds to Pitbulls. I love helping my dogs stay active and comfortable. I would love to care for your pet, small or large, in your time away! I work Monday-Thursday from 8am-5pm and Fridays 8:30-2:30. I am able to walk your dog or drop in from 12pm-1pm on weekdays. Unfortunately, outside of that time frame, I am not available until 5:30pm on a weekday (Mon-Thurs) or from 7am-8am. For drop-ins and walking, I will make sure to check on all of your animals needs and anything else pet related that you would like while I am there. I would love any tips to help care for your animal while I am with them!
“Courtney was amazing. Always keeping us updated with pictures, taking time with biscuit, and sending detailed notes! Biscuit throughly enjoyed his time with her and we will definitely use her again. Highly recommend ♥️”
“Ella is fabulous! Our cats love her and she is so sweet to them. Having Ella come and check on them gave me peace of mind being out of town because she is responsible, dependable, and communicates about her visits.”
“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with my cats. She always went above & beyond and treated my cats like they were her own. She sent pictures of them every time she dropped in on them and was a great communicator. During and after every drop in visit, Shannon always sent pictures and let me know how the cats were doing. How they looked, acted and responded to her being there. I felt very secure knowing my cats were being taken care of by her.”
“Lily was a wonderful drop in dog walker. She contacted me promptly and arranged to meet my Rondaxe before hand. Lily must be a dog whisperer because just minutes after meeting my prozac pup who is suspicious of all people who are not me, she had him begging for cuddles. She returned all my messages quickly while dog watching. She was concerned he was not pooping and took him to his favorite spot where he could relax and go. I would certainly hire Lily again. She was trustworthy with the key and access to my home (very important, that) and my dog was not a maniac when I came FINALLY came home.”
About: I’m all about attention. Giving attention and connecting and being aware of a dogs needs is everything to caring for them and helping them feel safe and loved. I’m retired and active so I’m flexible and available. If possible I will adjust my schedule to care for a pets needs across the board. I’m attentive to their need for play and rest and I’m focused on compassion and care. Dogs love schedules and whether food driven or play or connection and care, I adjust and take full responsibility for making their life better.
“Julia took great care of our two cats. They are very timid rescues, but they were very comfortable around Julia right from the start. They are also older adult cats with a host of issues and Julia handled each situation very well. She communicated with us daily and very much eased our concerns about traveling a great distance for an extended period of time.”
“Yes yes yes. Trust her. So sweet,informative, communicative, and loving!! She came in cared for our pup 4 times while we were gone for two days. She sent photos and updates and I'll definitely be hiring her again! <3 <3 <3”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Wake Forest
We had a sudden death in our family, and never used a cat sitter before. Suddenly through our grief, we had to find someone to care for our fur baby. Baylee was such a life saver to us! She was flexible and accommodating and so kind! She treated our cat like she would her own. We got detailed updates and pics each visit; Baylee texted me with questions rather than just assume and do the wrong thing. I just can't say enough good things! Professional and a true gift in our time of need!
Incredible cat sitter! Cindy was fantastic to work with while we were out of town. We came home to cats who were well taken care of and we greatly appreciate the care Cindy put into communication, pics of our babies, and the extra mile in making sure the space was taken care of as well.
Alyeska was a natural with our two boys. They are normally mad when we come back from a trip but they barely registered our return this time. It was clear their physical and emotional needs had been well taken care of. She also send us videos each day at our request, which not all sitters will do, my husband really misses the cats when we are away and these videos get him through. Also she took in packages for us we had forgotten were coming. Excellent communicator and we appreciated how consistent her timing was each day.
Jaiden provided excellent care to our animal kingdom (3 dogs, and 1 kitten). Her communications were timely and thorough. There were many pictures provided showing that Jaiden had won over all of them. We will book her again. We also reccomend her to others to book with confidence
Amanda is incredible! I have 1 cat and Amanda and her family took great care of her! She sends recaps and pictures every day. Our cat has kidney issues and she had no problem with giving Kitty her medications and cleaning up her accidents. I would highly recommend Amanda and will be using her again!
We were so grateful for Elaina! She stepped in at the very last minute when we had to leave town unexpectedly for a funeral, and she couldn’t have been more dependable or caring. She took incredible care of our two dogs and two cats for nearly a week. Everything was spotless and calm when we returned home, and the animals were clearly happy and well-loved. She was punctual every single visit and sent us adorable photo updates that made being away much easier. Truly a lifesaver and an absolute professional. We’ll be calling her again without hesitation.
Ok, so we’ve had other cat sitters. This is what we can say… * All tasks were completed on time (feeding, litter, plants) * We could see when Faith entered and excited via our ring camera. So we know that she spent more time than we even asked for or hoped for * We have one cat this hides from people they don’t know. First time this wasn’t the case. Alistair actually came out to greet her (she sent photos) * This is our person when we go on trips in the future

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.
