“Imelda was great with Luke and tired him out for the rest of the afternoon by playing with him and taking him outside for some sunshine and potty breaks. I will definitely reach out to Imelda again when needed.”
About: Hi there, my name is Savannah! Growing up, I had my two dogs, a Cocker Spaniel named Charlie, and a Shih Tzu named Rocky. Some of my best memories are hanging out with those lovely puppies. I’ve have taken care of my friends and family’s fur babies over the years and have always loved it. I take care and love them as if they’re my own. Additionally to playing and giving love to your fur baby, I can also administer medications to ensure your pet is happy and healthy. I work part time, giving me flexibility to hang out with your fur babies. I am free most days but when I do work, the latest I get off is 4:30pm. I am always willing to work with your schedule! I am here to keep your fur baby happy and healthy while you’re out. I make sure that you know how your dog or cat is doing while also being attentive and making sure they are happy.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats, I’m comfortable giving the pets medicine (oral, eye creams, etc). I’m used to cleaning litter boxes, crate training, teaching basic commands, etc I have full availability during the day right now, so that means I could do as many drop in visits as your pet needs, stay with your pet during the day or offer overnight care. I’m not able to board any pets at my house. When I offer pet sitting, your pets will be treated with the same love and care you would offer them. I love cuddling with dogs and cats, sleeping with them and overall just spending time together!
About: Over the last several years, I have been the number one choice for friends and family when needing help with pet care. I have administered medication, given special to grooming and taken great care with cleanliness of pet areas. My other work is part time, so I have plenty of flexibility and availability. I have many options for all 7 days of the week. I do have a quiet and safe home. I live with my husband and cats. I have no children and do not have many visitors.
About: I take care of your pets as you would! I follow your instructions to the letter and provide love and care as I do for my own pup! I’m all about the play and cuddles, the exercise and nurturing, and I respect and care for your home as well. I am reliable and honor my commitments! I will be providing pet care as I pursue additional educational and other entrepreneurial endeavors, so I am very flexible and committed to meeting the needs of my clients and their cherished pets! I care for pets in your home per our agreement — staying in your home while you are away and/or dropping in as needed for walks, breaks, and/or feedings.
About: Growing up, my parents fostered dogs which allowed me to be introduced to almost every type of dog. They all have different needs and especially different personalities. Currently, I am in my 2nd year of College and am hoping to achieve a BSN by 2027 that way I can help my human friends as well! Thank you for entrusting me with your furry family and hope to meet soon! As stated, I am a full time student which allows for ample time to spend with your pets! Currently, I attend Galen College of Nursing online as a full time student which basically means that I have all the time in the world to spend with your pet that way they feel safe and loved while you are away! I have one dog with special needs and one cat. This has given me the opportunity to learn what normal behavior looks like and how to be attentive to needs they may have. While entrusting your home to a stranger must be nerve wracking, I can assure you that I will care for your pet and home with the utmost amount of respect that it deserves!
“Sheila is by far the most amazing sitter I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with! She was such a great help to my cat, who absolutely adored her. Sheila treated my cat with the utmost love and care, as if she were a family member, and her deep compassion really showed. You can tell she has a true passion for animals, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. This was my first experience with Rover, and I’m so glad it led me to such a wonderful sitter. Sheila is everything you could ask for—punctual, passionate, professional, and incredibly kind.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for almost 10 years. This includes walking, check-ins, overnight stays, and boarding. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs and many at one time. Finding good pet care is hard, and if we are a good fit I would love to help in any way I can! I am currently based outside of Denver, CO. I just graduated from NAU in Flagstaff, AZ and have open availability, please refer to my calendar for dates I am out of town. On a daily to weekly basis I am very flexible and will work with you on whatever schedule you’re looking for. When I was living in Flagstaff I was a frequent foster parent. Not being able to get a dog on my own, I wanted to provide a safe space for pets from the shelter and help them find their forever home. Everyone has different preferences and routines for their pets and I am used to watching multiple animals with different routines. I will take care of your pets however you would like me too and keep their routine as comfortable as possible.
“Brooke helped watch our two cats who are about a year and a half old and she was fantastic! She followed instructions and was very communicative while we were away. She took very good care of our fur babies and took pictures for updates every day. We have a couple more trips this year and will be booking her services again. Thank you!!!”
About: I have had animals my entire life, both dogs and cats. Growing up I was taught the responsibility of taking care of all of our pets. I understand the love and attention they deserve and sometimes that life gets hard and we need help. I currently have a 13 year-old cat named Henry who is my entire world. I would love to be able to help you and take care of your babies so you have the peace of mind, knowing that they are in good hands. I am currently available full time. I can come see your pets and walk them pretty much anytime that’s needed as long as it’s requested. I do have a small fenced in backyard and a huge green belt and park near my house. My cat only goes into the backyard supervised though.
“Lexus stayed at our house for several days to keep an eye on our cat to make sure his urinary blockage didn’t come back. I was nervous about leaving my kitties with someone new, but Lexus did a great job giving them their medicine and was a very calming presence with them!”
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for many animals over the years including the 4 I currently have. I raised my dog and cat from infancy and I am fluent in understanding and respecting animal body language. I have attended dozens of puppy socialization and training classes with my own dog and I am very comfortable and confident caring for dogs of any size. I work remotely full-time so my schedule is very flexible and I am able to provide all-day care. I would be thrilled to spend time with your pet whenever you can’t be there. Keeping your pet happy and healthy is always my goal, so I aim to maintain as much of your pet’s normal routine as possible while providing appropriate mental stimulation. I have experience walking very large dogs and having to safely navigate off leash dogs.
“Georgia house sat for us and our two kitties. We have nothing but great things to say about our experience! It was a huge stress relief to leave them with someone reliable and who loved them and gave them lots of attention. They didn’t even seem to miss us when we got back! Thank you so much Georgia!”
“My girlfriend and I had an urgent need for drop in visits for our two cats after a last minute cancellation from another sitter. Sabrina's response was extremely prompt, detailed, and confidence inspiring. While watching our pets, she provided super cute updates with pictures and videos of how they were doing that left us feeling really good about our decision to go with her. She got them so comfortable that they were both playing with her even though it was her first time meeting them. One of the cats who typically takes multiple visits to warm up to new people was IMMEDIATELY comfortable with her, which I feel like says a lot! We were super happy about every part of our decision to go with Sabrina and would 100% consider her for our future needs around our pets.”
“Love Ezra!!! This was my second time having him watch Loki, and it was great again! He is very responsive and reassuring. My cat needs lots and lots of play time, and Ezra made sure that was accommodated. I also appreciate all the photos he sends of what Loki is up to while I’m gone! It’s always hard to leave your pets, but it makes it so much easier knowing they’re in good hands :)”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 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.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
