“Lea was absolutely amazing! From the meet and greet and taking care of our cats for 2 weeks, Lea provided excellent care. She communicated, left detailed notes, and went above and beyond to make sure our cats were taken care of. It was a huge relief to be far from home and know our animals were in great hands.”
“Celina was excellent! There was a miscommunication on my part, but Celina handled it with so much understanding and she did a wonderful job with our very hyper Aussie. She sent us photos and updates at every check-in. I would highly recommend her for drop in visits.”
“Nancy was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs. She was very prompt and efficient with communication. Dogs seemed immediately comfortable with her and she clearly has lots of experience. We look forward to using her again and would highly recommend.”
“My three kitties were well taken care of. Luna, my moo cat, loves her. Jean-Luc welcomes her and loves his treats. My third kitty hides regardless of who visits but Alex always gets a picture of her.”
“Our cats love when Joanne comes over. She does a great job in feeding and cleaning up their chaotic litter habits. I also really enjoy the pictures and recap she sends of the visit.”
“Highly recommend! Rebecca was fantastic with Zoey. She took the time to send me a quick photo or two, gave her plenty of attention, and followed all our instructions perfectly. Zoey was happy and relaxed when we got back and we could tell she had a great time! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands!”
About: I have 7 pets and I love each of them so dearly and I would love to spread my love to your animal! It’s incredibly important to me that your pet feels safe and loved. Typically, my pet care usually takes place in the afternoons or evening. However, I always like to keep a flexible schedule so I can make it work for your furry friend! I ensure that all pets have used the bathroom, ate an appropriate amount of food and have plenty of comfortable sleeping areas while also keeping away dangerous foods or objects.
“Katie was great! I didn’t worry about our pups at all while we were gone. She even picked up mail and cleaned a couple things for us. She sent photos daily and our pups loved her!”
“Jaida was exceptional. She is warm and professional. She took care of my cat Louie the way I wanted, and she took some super incredible pictures of Louie too!! I will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Chloe took wonderful care of our kitties and was a really great communicator! I knew our cats would be shy at first, but she gained their trust very quickly! The photos she sent were super cute and reassuring for us while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Laura is the best! I had to go away for work two weeks after relocating to VA and one week after moving into an apartment; not only did I not have enough time to adjust, my kitties did not either. Leaving them home was difficult enough because they are certified therapy animals and I have severe anxiety, the thought of leaving them with someone I did not know was worse. They had already endured the relocation, staying in the hotel and then moving into the apartment where I had barely begun to unpack. Laura came for the "meet and greet" and all fell into place. My kitties loved her instantly and I was immediately at ease. Laura sent updates and pictures every visit. When I arrived home, my kitties were calm, everything pertaining to kitty care was immaculate. I will not hesitate to call on Laura again.”
About: I have grown up with 3 of my own dogs (Australian cattle dog, lab, and our lovely mutt). I’ve also for the past few years have been dog sitting for friends and family of all different breeds, sizes, and ages! I currently work part-time and am studying international social justice at VCU! I have a LOT of free time now that school is out and can’t wait to spend time playing with your fur babies :) Whether it’s staying over at mine or just going for walks I will ensure that your baby is fully loved and taken care of. We live by several parks and the James river that ensure a good time! Also a pup cup every now and then is always a fun treat after a long walk!
“Our cats love Courtney! We always come home to two happy and healthy boys. The pictures and updates she sends are always fantastic. We couldn’t be more grateful to have found someone we trust to take great care of our kitties while we are away!”
“We have used Francisca twice and will use her again! She was very responsive to our concerns and questions. Through her updates, we felt very close to our cats even though far 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. 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.
