“Absolutely AMAZING!! Took great care of my fur baby. Gave me updates and pictures. I was immediately comfortable with leaving my cat in their care when we did the meet and greet. Will definitely be using them again.”
“Taylor really helped me out last minute. She was very kind and took great care of my 2 cats. They were very happy when I got home and everything was taken care of and tidy in my absence!”
“Erin was great! We had her looking after our cat for a long weekend and she was super communicative and left the house in better condition than when we left. At one point she mistakenly thought she broke something and told us right away and offered to pay for it, and that level of personal responsibility alone will have us booking her again. Our cat is also a really anxious type and it's obvious when he hasn't been well cared for as he'll stop cleaning himself, and we returned to a very happy and fluffy kitty. We will 100% have her back in the future.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Elisha. She was attentive, communicative, went far above and beyond to make my elderly kitty comfortable. I felt so reassured every step of the way that our pet and home were in incredible hands. If you have a pet that needs a little extra TLC and someone who really cares, look no further. I’d recommend Elisha a thousand times over.”
About: I’m a huge animal lover and have been around all kinds of pets all of my life! Chickens, dogs, cats, iguanas, birds, snakes, and even rats, ferrets, and guinea pigs. I have two large, energetic dogs of my own (Doberman and a Cane Corso) so I’m very comfortable handling big, strong, high-energy breeds. I also regularly walk and care for my mother-in-law’s Pomeranian, so I’m as happy working with little dogs and their very big personalities! I’m a cat lover originally, so I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand that they have their own personalities, boundaries, and routines. Whether your pet is big, small, energetic, shy, or just wants some company and attention, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and help keep them happy, active, and cared for while you’re away! I’m a full-time student and also work full-time during the week, so my pet care availability is focused on weekends. I’m happy to dedicate my weekends to walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets! I do not currently offer boarding services. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’ll also respect your home and keep you updated so you know your pet is safe and happy.
“Maribel was fantastic while looking after our 5 month old kitten. She sent lots of photos that showed how happy and comfortable our kitten was with Maribel. Trustworthy, friendly, and punctual. We’ll be booking Maribel again.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10yrs old. It started with my neighbor, who had 20+ cats! I went and fed and scooped boxes anytime she was away. As an adult, I’ve worked almost exclusively with animals. I’ve worked in multiple animal hospitals and am currently a pooper scooper with tons of doggie friends! I’m comfortable administering medications including injections. I will love your furry family members! I am currently working part time at my poop scooping job, so I can easily tailor my work schedule to best fit your pet’s needs. If your pet stays in my home, they will have a fenced yard and will be let out as needed. We have one small friendly dog, and one friendly cat, both seniors. All dogs must be dog and cat friendly. Cats can be isolated in their own room away from our pets.
“Mary was great with Junie, my 4 month old kitten. She made sure to feed her twice a day, scoop her litter, and just play with her. I can tell Junie really enjoyed having her around (and as a bonus, was tired when I got home from my 5 hour car drive!!).”
“Ava has been such a big help when we had to leave town for family emergency. My dog warmed up to her right away and he usually takes a minute. I can tell she didn’t just come by to let him out and feed him for a drop in, she played with him and made him feel loved which I really appreciate! She even volunteered to poop scoop in the yard what a rockstar”

Katelynn was fantastic and easy to work with. My high-needs kitty can be very shy and gets easily stressed with strangers. She seemed to like Katelynn a lot and was very relaxed when we returned home. She looked great and thank you for taking such good care of her Katelynn! I highly recommend your pet care.
Jenny really spent time with my cat! I have had other cat sitters (from Rover) who spent 5 or 10 minutes, but Jenny spent 25-30 minutes to give my cat some play time and lots of love. I have a camera on my front door so I know how long the sitter stays. Jenny sent regular updates and was easy to work with.
Laura checked on our cat while we were away during the holidays. Laura is very responsive to all communication. She provided daily updates with pictures (even though our cat is super shy). It was great knowing that someone was checking on him every day. Laura, thank you so much for taking care of Fez!
McKenna took great care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. She fed them, played with them, and gave them attention. She left our house just as clean as when we left and took care of a excited eater's vomit. The cats love having her visit and we know they are 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Welby. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% can help with daily exercise
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.
