“Ari was on-time and did a great job with Lou. The pictures indicated she was very happy with the visit, and we were happy to return to a clean litter box and healthy cat.”
“Wendy is simply wonderful! Our cat was immediately at ease with her. She provided daily updates and photos, and took care of our home as if it was her own. We will definitely be booking again.”
“Jordan was kind, professional, responsive, and made me feel very comfortable leaving my cat in her care. Her updates were warm and reassuring during a 10 day vacation, the first I had ever taken with having a cat and also being the first time I used this app and a sitter to help care for him. Wonderful experience, thank you!”
About: I am new to Rover, but I grew up with both cats and dogs and genuinely love both equally. As I’ve gotten older and needed pet sitters of my own, I appreciate the trust that goes into making sure your pet is taken care of while you’re not home. I recently made a career shift from medical device sales to pursuing veterinary medicine as this is something I’m passionate about. Your pets will get the same care and attention to detail that I give my own. I’m going back to school so I have a good amount of flexibility. I’m here to help make sure your pet stays on as close to a normal schedule as possible! I appreciate detailed instructions and the most important thing to me is making sure I give your pet exactly what you need me to give them. Need the food weighed and some meds administered? Got it. Need me to sprint around with them so they can burn some energy? No problem. Whatever you need from me, no matter how unique the request may be to you, I’ve got it.
“Audrey did a great job looking after our pet bunny. We came home to find him well fed and happy. House was clean and tidy, and she communicated with us daily. I highly recommend her service!”
“J was a fantastic stay-in catsitter for my foster cat, Lyric. She stayed for six days and nights, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. Lyric can be shy, but J did an amazing job bringing him out of his shell. She got him using cat beds and toys he’d never shown interest in before. J clearly has a wonderful instinct with cats and a very calm, positive presence. J also took excellent care of the house, kept the litter very clean, and was extremely communicative throughout the stay. J sent lots of photos and videos, and as a former professional photographer the pictures were truly beautiful. As a thoughtful surprise, J even left a small painting of Lyric on a wooden block, which meant a lot. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend J to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and truly wonderful cat sitter.”
“Sana was wonderful with our kitten, Bentley! It was his first time with a sitter, so we were a little nervous, but she completely put us at ease. She sent us pictures a few times a day, which we loved — it was so reassuring to see him happy and relaxed. She took great care of him and kept us updated throughout the weekend. We'd absolutely book Sana again and highly recommend her.”
“Lindsay was the first sitter we booked through Rover, and we absolutely loved her! She's incredibly thoughtful and paid close attention to every detail of care for our three cats, even the most nitpicky instructions I threw at her. She was also super responsive, so I never had to wonder how everyone was doing. She left our home exactly as she found it, which showed how much she cared about keeping the cats in a clean, comfortable environment. Lindsay truly cares about our cats, and that's what you want in a cat sitter. Highly recommend!”
“"Marina is absolutely wonderful! From the start, she was reliable and incredibly helpful, making the whole process stress-free. She has a very calm and patient energy that immediately put my mind at ease. She followed every single instruction to the letter and showed such a caring attitude toward my home and pets. I highly recommend Marina, and I’m already looking forward to having her watch my kitties again!"”
About: I’ve had cats since I was 8 years old. With the 16 years of experience with cats, I believe every fur baby needs a home away from home. Like with every pet parent, I strive for the best with my cat. If you choose me to watch your fur baby, I will provide the best and safest environment for them. Do they need a room to themselves? You got it. Has explosive diarrhea? I have cleaning supplies. Medical issues? Another way to keep me on my toes. I hope you consider me as a prospective aunt to your kitter cat or doggo and can’t wait to fill up my camera role with adorable pictures. I look forward to hearing from you 💕 I am a grad student at Brandeis University. My classes are usually over by 2 pm, so after then I’m usually at my apartment caring for my cat and completing schoolwork. So needless to say, I have a lot of flexibility within my schedule for your pets individual needs. If I am doing home visits, I would like to visit the clients home a day or two prior to the arranged visit(s) to understand the animals needs and to see if we would be a good fit. I believe it is important to establish an understanding with the animal in question before I frequent the premises so there isn’t any unnecessary stress for your pet. In regards to boarding, I have a medium sized apartment that would be good for any cat or small-medium dog. There are multiple grassy areas for bathroom breaks and walks around the premises. You will have to provide me with your animals usual schedule (times for bathroom breaks, when and how much time are committed to walks, feeding times, etc.) so I can build my set around them and their needs
About: I grew up with animals. Dogs and cats specifically have always been apart of my life. I am able to keep up with with the youngest peppy puppy or slow down to meet the pace of a senior dog. I am not fazed by much and happy to provide the same love and care that you would give to your animal. I am a freelancer with a very flexible schedule. I have the ability to work with you on potential last minute needs and care for your pets. I am very comfortable caring for animals weather it be a quick check at the home ot in an more outdoor adventure. My goal is to give your animal the care they care they need in the environment that works best for you and them.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for 10+ years. I’ve had both puppies and kittens, as well as fully grown cats and dogs. I can take care of multiple at a time. I have a dog and 2 cats, so I take my dog out at least 4 times a day with long walks included and have feeding time twice daily for all animals. I have a yard that my dog plays in and there is also a field right across the street from my house that we go to at least 3 times per day as well as longer walks.
About: While I don’t have my own pet, I have been around and taken care of dogs quite often. I regularly take care of all my loved ones’ cats and have had cat sitting jobs as well. I’m a responsible and reliable doctoral graduate who will do a good job, and be sure to keep solid communication with clients! I currently work and study full time from home. I am quite flexible with my schedule and can often help out on weeknights and weekends too! I have an unfenced large yard as well as a large house. I can go on runs, (I’m an avid runner who ran cross country and track in high school!) and I absolutely love playing with dogs. My neighborhood is very friendly for dog walks, with fellow dog walkers around! I don’t have a dog or other pets, so no interactions would disrupt dog-sitting. I have three roommates who can give the dogs extra love :)
About: I'm a very knowledgable pet sitter with 10+ years of experience working with other client's pets and 15+ years caring for my own pets. Im comfortable with most pets all sizes and ages, not only limited to dogs and cats! I work full time as a pet sitter/dog walker. My schedule is very flexible since I can organize my own schedule! If I'm not out on walks I spend my downtime at home hanging out with the pets. I treat each pet as if they're my own, Im very alert and attentive. Im respectful of my client's home and keep their home nice and clean just how I'd want someone to do the same for me. Im happy to send over local references!
“Thomas was a huge help with Allie. My little girl can be very picky with her food, water and play. Thomas showed her lots of love and consideration. Not to mention his pictures were spot on amazing. I will definitely keep Thomas at the top of the list to call when I have need.”
“Claire was a great cat sitter! She was patient and caring with our very shy cats. She was also communicative and diligent about taking care of our home. She even offered to water our plants! We will definitely be booking her again soon.”
About: I am a true dog lover and plenty of experience as I have dogsat many times throughout the years. I have had three dogs myself so I understand the responsibility and care that each dog needs! I love animals and love spending time outside with them! I just moved to Jackson and do not start work until the end of April, leaving plenty of time to take care of your pet! My schedule is very flexible so if you need any specific care, I am available. I love to be outside and doing so with a pet is even better! I enjoy walks and hikes, whichever you are most comfortable with.

Tingting took great care of my cat Nami for 5 nights, two visits per day. Even though Nami is shy, Tingting took the right approach to gain her trust and keep her happy and engaged. The daily photos and videos were a great touch. I came home to a happy, healthy cat and couldn't be more satisfied. Will definitely book with her again.
Caitlin is amazing!!! She was so loving and caring towards my cats, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away visiting family for a week. I’ve gone through many cat sitters, many of whom I felt like didn’t give my cats enough love during their visits, and I can confidently say that I felt like my cats were very loved and in good hands. I highly recommend booking with Caitlin!! 💕
Devon took such wonderful care of Dutton and Ranch again! She always goes above and beyond and gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. She’s thoughtful, reliable, and clearly cares so much about our cats. We always come home to happy, well cared for pets and couldn’t recommend her more.

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.

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 .
