“Cindia is amazing! She was so patient with my scardy cat and gave all the love to my social boy. She even asked to groom them for me. When I was struggling to get emails and rover updates abroad she texted me the updates. I felt so at ease with her taking care of my babies. Will always have her back when I need her. She also watered my plants for me.”
About: I've been a dog and cat owner since I was a child. I started taking care of my friend's dogs about 5 years ago. I would stay the night as well as visit them to let them outside. She recently got a great dane puppy that I check in on to let out and watched him for a few hours while he was being trained. I also have helped my partner's dogs, one of which is very anxious, while their family was out of town. I watched them, played with them, cuddled, and fed them. I am in community college right now, so my availability is most open on the weekends, Friday-Sunday. However, I also have afternoon availability for walks, check ins, potty breaks, and play dates during the week! I love to play with small to big dogs and cats, and I can watch them if they need to be let out. I also follow feeding instructions very specifically and dutifully. I have experience crating big dogs that are already crate trained, and I have been learning in my free time how to place train my own dogs, so I can assist in that training if needed given instruction.
“Hunter did a great job with drop in visits for my 2 cats. Hunter went above and beyond and also took care of other house hold duties that I wasn't able to deal with because I wasnt in the area. Would definitely book with Hunter again.”
“This is our first time using Rover as well as having a person drop in and take care of our cats. Katie went beyond our expectation, all the great questions ahead and staying in contact with us. Thank you Katie, we will be reaching out for the next opportunity to have you take care of cats.”
About: I’ve handled pets of many kinds for the past 10 years, I currently work at a veterinary hospital with the experience and capability to know when there may be an emergency & when care is needed. I love all animals & I look forward to caring for your fur (if they have fur) babies ❤️ I work full time and usually have 3 days off at the end of my week (Thursday-Saturday) I do have availability daily after 6:30 pm. I am very vigilant and observant, I like to be aware of surroundings for your pets safety, I will also have a form signed for your pets well being in case of an emergency or any other urgent reasoning.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I grew up with my childhood dog and cared for him for 17 years until he passed away. I now have three huskies, so taking care of dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’m reliable, patient, and comfortable with high-energy dogs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets while you’re away, and I’ll follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated with pictures along the way. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m happy to coordinate schedules in advance and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow the routine and instructions you leave for your pets and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m careful when coming and going, especially with doors, gates, and leashes. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own and keep you updated while you’re away.
“My first time using Rover but I'm glad I found Keila! It was very reassuring to know someone great was checking in on our fur baby. Keila was very communicative and tried to send pics of our pet every visit. I really appreciate all that you did during the week. Thank you for everything, we will definitely use you again in the future!!”
About: I love caring for dogs. Short or long walks, playing at the park or in their yard. When they are happy it makes me happy. Feeding time or treats always on owners timeline! I am currently not working so available to be with your pet all day! Feedings, walks, whatever is needed they will feel safe and happy. I like to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I will be able to keep them on their daily schedules where they feel safe.
About: For 2 yrs, I was a volunteer for an animal shelter, Berkeley Humane, and took care of dogs & cats needs. I’ve also have plenty experience watching overs friends’ loved ones and had no problems at all. I’ve been and capable to watch, walk, play and make sure your loved one gets all the attention as if they were my own. I absolutely love dogs & cats. I’ve grown up with many pets before, and now I have a sweet, yet energetic of my own. I love to walk and I would love to get the opportunity to walk your dog. I’m currently a full-time artist at home. I’m almost home 24/7. I’m only gone for 2 hours to go to the gym. However, I do keep my dog inside the crate too so I would need your dog to be crate trained in case I need to leave the house. This provides a safety and peaceful nap-time for the babies so when I come back, we are all ready to play again! I’m very respectful and clean of one’s property and of my own. I follow instructions clearly and ask important questions needed to ensure I have all the correct info. All always update you and ensure your fur baby is happy & loved :)

“Kenya is attentive, friendly, and has genuine interest in providing the best care for your pet. You can tell that she is passionate about animals and providing your animal with comfort while you are away.”
“This was the first time hiring a pet sitter for my cat and I really lucked out finding Nicoletta. Riley seemed to warm up to Nicoletta very quickly and she took really great care of him. I appreciated all the pictures, videos and updates. Nicoletta even walked Riley outside on his leash which isn't always easy to do with a cat. I'm so happy to have found someone I can count on and trust to take great care of my little cat boy when I'm away from home.”
“Nancy has watched Jackson for me a few times and accepted last minute! She’s a great help and I would recommend her 100%. When I arrive home from my trips he does not have his usual anxiety which gives me relief!!! He typically has a hard time when I leave and since Nancy has been watching him, it’s stopped!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Hartley
Dana was attentive, gentle, and genuinely connected with my kittens from the very beginning. She sent thoughtful updates and sweet photos every day, which made it easy to relax knowing my cats were comfortable and cared for. My female cat can be shy with new people, but she warmed up quickly thanks to the sitter’s patience and calm energy. I truly appreciate the compassion and reliability she brought to the job. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like family.
Dana is an amazing sitter. She kept me up to date with my fur babies and took wonderful pictures. I'm glad my cats were comfortable enough to come out and interact when she dropped by. They're usually hiding when we have visitors. I will definitely be a return customer.
Dana was a fabulous care-giver for our kitties! One of our cats is very shy around strangers and Dana took the extra time and care to help him come out of his shell every day. We really appreciated her expertise and knew our cats were in GREAT hands the entire time we were gone. She also takes phenomenal pet pics :D

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.

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.
