“A total lifesaver for your pet - Can’t recommend enough!!! Kayla was amazing with our cat! She let us know when any pet accidents happened and sent plenty of photos. You could totally see how much affection she was giving her just through the photos and really helped our needy cat adjust to our vacation absent. Her communication was top notch anytime she had to adjust to mild schedule changes even though we said we were flexible and responded quickly whenever we reached out. We will definitely use Kayla again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and I also own one myself, so I’m very experienced and comfortable taking care of yours. Available Monday through Friday before 2:00 PM and for overnight stays. I’m very flexible, so if you need a specific hour, just reach out and we can work it out! We have a fenced backyard and plenty of toys, plus a fluffy carpet and couches where they’re welcome to lounge. My dog is very independent and likes his own space, so he won't bother yours. If your dog wants to play, he's happy to join in.
About: I have watched dogs and cats all my life! Now since I am older I have a cat and two dogs myself.It’s always been hard for me to find someone I trust to care for my pets, nothing better than having someone competent and detailed caring for my pet so I don’t have to worry while I’m away. I currently work as a professional soccer player with Loudoun United FC right here in Loudoun County. After work every day I go on walks to recover so going on walks is something that I already do ! I walk dogs and care for cats. Obviously cats can tend to hide but I try to make myself friendly enough to offer play and pets. Dogs I love to take around the neighborhood or to a park in the area. There’s balls bluff, beaverdam, Seneca regional! If that is your preferred I would love to take them out to the woods as well!
“Laryssa was amazing! We had a last minute change to our care in that one of our cats needed medication. Without hesitation she had no problem giving it to our cat. We also had an issue with one of our cats feeders. Laryssa had a solution that completely worked and took care of the situation easily. I have never felt so at ease leaving my cats with someone. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I took care of my black lab for 8 years, including feeding, giving medications, bathing and walking. I raised my cat from 6 weeks forward, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, giving attention to/playing with, and giving any medicines needed. I currently have a 4 and 5 year old cat. I also regularly volunteered at the cat Cafe in Murfreesboro, TN before I relocated to the area. There I was responsible for playing with the cats, feeding them and cleaning litter boxes. I have worked at an animal hospital where I have gained knowledge about medical situations and some medication giving. I am also a professional toy fixer! I am currently in between jobs so I do have mostly open availability until this changes or if I have to block some time off for an interview. I am willing to stay as long as needed to keep your furbabies happy and make sure they are fully taken care of. Being sure to leave your home exactly how it was when I arrived.
“Kalpana was wonderful!! My cats are very stressed when we leave them for a week! When we returned from our trip they were so calm and happy! Kalpana took excellent care of our kitties! I will be booking drop in visits with her again! I highly recommend Kalpana!! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our kitties!!”
“Xinyi is great with our cat and is very reliable. She even went above and beyond to come back later in the same day to pick up a package that was delivered after she had left. Thanks, Xinyi!”
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of feathered, finned, clawed, and pawed friends! So I have been providing animal care most of my life. I am a big animal lover and believe pets are important members of the family! I am able to care for pets extensively on the days that I am off, walking, feeding and giving them plenty of playtime and belly rubs! I prefer to take care of pets in my clients home and do my best to give their pet care that is representative of their regular routine and in a familiar place to them to keep them as comfortable and happy as possible!
About: I’ve had pets around my home since I was five years old and my family adopted my cats Rex and Sally, a bonded brother/sister pair. From that young age I was always expected and taught to help with the pets’ care, even the less glamorous parts. Later in my life we adopted my dog, Bella, who I diligently made sure got her daily walks, play, and food. While Rex and Sally have unfortunately passed (Sally in 2018 and Rex in 2025 at the age of 21), I currently still have two lovely kitties, both of which have very different personalities (one is very affectionate and the other is skittish), and I always ensure to accommodate the both of them and their unique needs for their boundaries. I work part time and am also a student, so my main availability is mornings and late afternoons/evenings. Though, my schedule often works out that I have plenty of hours to take care of furry friends! At my house I have plenty of toys and stimulation set up for my two cats, and it’s the same when I’m visiting my dog (she currently lives out of state with my dad). I always make sure to learn a pet’s individual personality and cater how I care for them to it! I know some animals absolutely adore a high level of energy, while others respond better to calmness, and I’m always sure to factor that in for whatever I’m doing for them.
About: My family got our first and only dog in 2019, a jack Russel Chihuahua named Sadie. She was very energetic despite her age and loved attention, people and especially children. I'm not as good at grooming dogs as I am cats (ie nail trimming) but I can bathe and brush any dog's teeth or coat. Every day I care for my 2 cats and bearded dragon. I'm unemployed at this time so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets. Some may say that the hardest part about owning a cat is their claws but I've trimmed even the most unruly kitties nails in my time. Even my friends dog Teddy probably loves me more than her 😂
“Antoinette was very easy to work with. She came in 2 times a day, fed the cats and refreshed water (we have a cat that drinks ice water out of a glass) and kept everything very clean. When we arrived the cats acted like we had not been gone at all, really. Thank you Antoinette.”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and more for several years. I am a huge animal lover and will treat your pets like they are my own. I work a full-time job with a flexible schedule and I work from home. I can adjust to your schedule and make almost anything work. I will treat your animals as though they are my own and ensure that everyone is well taken care of and that you get updates throughout our time together.
About: I currently work part-time about four days a week, usually from 9–3 or 10–3, and my work hours are fairly flexible as well. Outside of those hours, my schedule is pretty flexible and I have plenty of availability for cat sitting, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I’m also happy to work around your cat’s normal routine and feeding schedule as much as possible. Cats are creatures of routine, so whenever possible, I recommend having them cared for in their own home while their owners are away. Being able to stay in a familiar environment with their usual smells, hiding spots, and routine can help make the experience less stressful for them. When I’m caring for your cat, I try to keep their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I’ll follow any instructions you leave for feeding, litter, medications, playtime, and anything else that’s part of their normal day. I’m also very careful around doors and entryways, especially with cats who are curious or like to try to sneak outside. I’ll respect your cat’s space and let them decide how much interaction they’re comfortable with rather than forcing attention. I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away so you can see how they’re doing.
“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.”
“Maryann was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond while caring for our 3 dogs and cat while we were out of town. She spent extra time at our house, made sure everyone was fed, loved on, and played with, and even cleaned up accidents in the house without hesitation. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pets were in such caring and capable hands. We would highly recommend Maryann and will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾”
“Megan was very cheerful and helpful when taking care of my little kitty over the weekend! She sent cute photos and little updates about how he was doing after each visit and followed all of my instructions well! Thanks Megan :)”
About: I was introduced to dogs during my early childhood; I would always have at least 3 of them at a time. While I do not yet have a dog of my own, I’ve spent countless hours volunteering at animal shelters bathing dogs/puppies, cleaning up their environment, feeding and playing with them, walking them, and just keeping them company! Every pet is different. Some are shy and timid, some are playful and excitable, some require loads of attention, and some might even snatch your food off of your plate right before your eyes (yikes!), but one thing that will always remain the same across the board is that genuine compassion and care goes a long way in building trust and friendship with your furry friends. I work full time, but my job is highly flexible. Whether it's for a walk or a check in, I can stop in during the morning or in the evening to check on your pet to ensure that he/she is happy, safe, and comfy! I'd treat your home just as I would my own. I'd assess and cater to his/her needs in your absence to keep him/her happy and stress free!
“Clay was absolutely phenomenal when it came to cat sitting my cat, Itty Bitty. She is typically very shy, but when Clay came over to meet her for the first time, she was immediately smitten with him. She just wanted all the love and attention, which made me feel completely at ease. Itty Bitty struggles with separation anxiety, but she had no issues while I was away. In fact, she didn’t even seem bothered by my absence because of the exceptional care she received from Clay. Clay always stayed in touch, sending frequent updates and plenty of pictures. You can truly tell that he has a good soul and genuinely cares for and loves every animal he meets. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Waxpool
I could not be happier withy my first Rover experience and that I was fortunate enough to find Nicole! Throughout our entire vacation I felt so relaxed because I knew my fur babies were in good hands. Nicole is very sweet and it is very apparent how much she loves animals by the way she cares for them. I looked forward to the daily reports and photos, her communication was top notch! And best of all, my kitties loved her too!
Kayla was exceptional in her care and attention to our two cats in our absence. Our cats immediately warmed to her. She shared updates and photos after every visit. Her care has made us realize that we are able to travel when necessary and have peace of mind that the cats will be well!
Valerie is amazing! She was incredibly kind and caring with our kitties, took wonderful care of them, and even went above and beyond by helping with a few extra tasks while we were away. For example, she brought in the many packages we received during our trip, which was extremely helpful. She provided lots of pictures of our kitties during every visit, including photos of their food station and litter boxes, so we could see that everything was clean, neat, and well cared for. We could also tell that the kitties really loved her! They are usually very shy and don’t warm up to new people quickly, so seeing how comfortable they were with Valerie meant so much to us. We are extremely happy with her care and truly appreciate all the help, kindness, and attention Valerie provided. She did an excellent job, and we would absolutely recommend her!
Loved how Yvette cared for our cats while we were away! She was very responsible, attentive, and clearly cared about their well-being. Communication was excellent — she kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came back to two healthy and happy cats :) Would definitely recommend her and would absolutely ask her to care for our cats again!

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 .

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.

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