“As always Sharon has been a great help to us while we're away. Would book her again when needed and recommend to anyone looking for pet sitting care. She communicates well and asks questions when uncertain or to make sure we're on the same page.”
“Baylee did a fantastic job with Rio. Rio was experiencing separation anxiety and Baylee’s approach with Rio was perfect. Her detailed updates were helpful. We highly recommend Baylee!!”
“Angela did an excellent job taking care of my two cats when I was away on work travel. One of my cats required a daily Rx in his wet food which Angela handled without issue. Every day I was provided a full report on what she did and how they were doing and she also included pictures! Being so far from home, knowing that your family is being taken care of puts you at such ease. I highly recommend Angela's services and hope to utilize her again moving forward. Thanks Angela : )”
“Sarah was AMAZING. She was thorough and communicative from start to finish, I could tell she pampered my little fur baby, and she sent me copious check-ins with photos. Easily one of the best sitters I've ever had, if not the best! Will definitely call on her first whenever I go out of town. Added bonus, her dad owns a music venue, and I've been looking for local places to play! :-)”
“Lily was terrific and sent me some photos of my kitty PussPuss. She took the time to coax PussPuss out of her hiding places which I am very grateful for knowing how much PussPuss craves attention. I felt confident she was well cared for!”
“Kelly does a wonderful job with our cats. She is very reliable, follows instructions and plays with our cats while she is at our house to feed them and clean their litter. Highly recommend!”
“We love Paulina and so do our kitties! We’ve had her watch our cat Spooky before, and she does a fantastic job keeping her happy with attention, pets, or play time. This time we had her also watch our two new kittens. She made sure everyone got their own attention and play time, and she followed all our instructions perfectly. She provided clear updates and photos of all cats and made us feel super comfortable that everyone was happy and well-cared-for.”
About: I’m an experienced and lifelong animal caregiver with a strong background in caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I grew up around dogs and have raised multiple pets from puppy and kitten stages through adulthood, giving me a solid understanding of animal behavior, socialization, and daily care needs. I have extensive hands-on experience with large-breed dogs, including my 150 lb Labrador, who I trained in obedience, leash manners, and routines through consistent, positive-based training methods. I also have a mini Dachshund, so I’m comfortable with small breeds, their unique personalities, and their care needs as well. In addition to dogs, I care for two one-eyed cats, which has built my experience with special-needs pets requiring extra patience, attentive care, and gentle handling. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter maintenance, medication assistance if needed, enrichment activities, and creating a calm, loving environment for cats of all temperaments — including shy or anxious pets. I prioritize safety, comfort, routine, and affection to make every pet feel secure and loved in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, enrichment, training reinforcement, or extra cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs to ensure they feel at home while you’re away. Because I attend school part-time and complete most of my coursework from home, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m able to be home throughout the day, which means more consistent supervision, playtime, walks, and companionship for your pets — not just quick check-ins. My routine gives me the ability to accommodate morning, mid-day, and evening care, with availability for overnight stays, extended visits, and last-minute needs. I’m able to adjust my schoolwork around pet care, ensuring your pets receive reliable, steady attention and a calm, loving environment. My home is set up to provide a safe, calm, and welcoming space for the pets I care for. I have gated-off areas both inside and outside, which allows me to separate pets when needed for comfort, feeding, rest time, or safety. This setup is especially helpful for pets who prefer their own space, are shy, or need a slower introduction to others. I also have friendly pets in the home who are used to being around other animals, but introductions are always done carefully and based on what is best for your pet. Whether your pet enjoys social time with others or prefers a quiet, private space, I can accommodate their needs. Your pet will have a secure environment, plenty of supervised time, and a comfortable area where they can relax stress-free — just like home.
“Olivia was awesome and my cats really loved her! She even got my very nervous cat to come out and eat while she was out. She was on time and did a really great job! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Eleanor was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our cat, Perry, while we were away at the beach. She was so flexible and gracious when there was a mix-up with our address, and she handled everything with such kindness and patience. Perry adored her, and we loved how attentive and communicative she was throughout. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”

“Leah was so great checking in on our three cats for a week while we were out of town. She was super responsive and helped us feel at ease while being away! Would definitely rebook with her!”
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.

About: I’ve been around cats my whole life, but in my teenage years I started bonding more with dogs—and I’ve been hooked ever since. I’ve had several dogs over the years, and my current pup, Johnny, is wild, playful, and full of energy. His best friend is a Great Dane three times his size, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs of all breeds and sizes. Whether your dog is energetic, laid-back, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they get the attention, care, and fun they need. I have a flexible job that allows me to fit pet care into my day easily. I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week and can adjust to your pet’s routine. For drop-in visits and dog walks, I treat your pets like my own. I make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. During visits, I’ll follow any specific instructions for feeding, playtime, or medication, and ensure they’re safe and comfortable. When walking, I keep them on a secure leash and adjust the pace to match their energy level, whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic run. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priority every step of the way.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Wake Forest
Erin went above and beyond with my pets when I was in the hospital. She walked my dog every day, sent pictures of my cat and dog, and she even vacuumed my house and took out my trash. She checked up on me when I got out of the hospital. I would definitely hire her again.
Our senior cats, Boots and Bella, did amazingly well with Carol. They took to her immediately which is not always the case with cats, and they were happy to stay in their own home with visits from Carol while we were away. Carol paid close attention to their senior details, gave them love and attention during each visit, and I could tell they were comfortable and not stressed when we arrived home. We will definitely book Carol again!
Cindy is wonderful! She was great with our cats and exceptional with all the details for our older Siamese. She is punctual and communicative, and probably one of the best we’ve found. If you have furbabies that are a little complicated and you worry about finding the right person? Cindy is the one for you.
Wow! Baylee was phenomenal with our kitty for a week while we were away. Her twice daily reports were thorough and comprehensive. We were thrilled to receive on average 6 or 7 photos at a time. We felt completely comfortable with her caring for our Leo. We know Leo had a great time with her! I wouldn’t hesitate booking her for cat sitting again.
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.

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.

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 .
