“Isabel is a wonderful pet sitter! She is prompt, reliable, communicative, and very loving with our two dogs. It’s such a relief to know your fur babies are in good hands when you are out of town. We absolutely recommend Isabel to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
“Victoria has been a tremendous drop-in sitter for our dog, Hunter. Every visit gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s in such caring and reliable hands. She consistently checks his food and water, makes sure he’s comfortable, and takes the time to play with him so he feels loved while we’re away. We truly appreciate her communication, and the genuine care she shows. Highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“Lori was wonderful, we felt our sweet Percy cat was in great hands while we were away! Great communication, lots of pics, excellent care. We will definitely rebook.”
“First time booking with Katherine and will absolutely book again! She communicates wonderfully, included great pics and took excellent care of our babies! Highly recommend.”
“She did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy during the drop in visits. She was attentive, followed all instructions and made sure my puppy was safe and well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend again”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since before I can remember! I’ve befriended dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and temperaments (mostly medium-small breeds but I’m not afraid of big dogs!). My friend who is a professional pet sitter defers to me when they need someone to watch their fur babies (one of which is a reactive cattle breed). I’ve assisted with elderly dogs and helped to raise puppies and kittens from birth. Currently caring for a mother and kitten pair as a rescue effort, and co-parenting 2 lively pups! I am a recent UF graduate with a very flexible/open schedule. Pet visits and walks are a very welcome interruption to the typical daily hustle and bustle. As a caretaker I always try my best to learn the personality of your furry friend. I love getting to know animals and forming positive relationships for the best experience while their owner(s)/people are away. I try my best to keep things neat and tidy and at the very least the same way I found them! I’m more than happy to talk regarding any special instructions or circumstances for your pet or home.
“Sarah was so great! Highly recommend. She was very professional/prompt and she provided detailed updates that made me so confident that my cats were being well cared for while I was gone.”
“Anne-Katrin took great care of our 2 dogs while we were away. We will definitely use her services again, she is very pleasant and easy to work with. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had my own dogs and cats my whole life and currently have one dog and one cat. I worked at an animal shelter through high school with all kinds of dogs and cats and am comfortable with pretty much anything they can throw at me. Sometimes accidents happen and it’s ok and sometimes they get scared when new people are around which is totally understandable. I’m very comfortable being patient with any animal who needs a little extra love and understanding. I am currently a full time student and usually my day is pretty open on any day I don’t have class and in between my classes. I have two pets of my own who I get up early to take care of before class and always make sure I’m home to take care of after class. Weekends that I’m not visiting family are usually completely free as well. In a client’s home, the most important thing for any nervous pet will be respecting boundaries. I have a nervous girl dog and girl cat so I totally understand when they are a little hesitant to new people. But if they are sociable and want plenty of love I can absolutely give that too. I am very good at reading their body language and actions to determine what they want or need in the moment and will absolutely respect that their space if they want that.
“Hannah was amazing! She took amazing care of our kitties, going above and beyond when one of our cats got herself stuck on top of a cabinet. She managed to get our skittish cat down and we are incredibly grateful.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 12 years old and have experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and even snakes. Having grown up with dogs of my own, I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. I love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking dogs on long walks, whether they prefer a leisurely stroll or need a good workout to burn off energy. My goal is to provide safe, attentive, and loving care so your pet feels happy and comfortable while you’re away, and you can have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am currently in nursing school, which gives me a flexible schedule with pockets of time available throughout the week between classes and studying. I’m accustomed to early mornings and enjoy starting my day with outdoor activity, making walks and playtime with pets a great break from my studies. I love being active outside and would enjoy incorporating your pet into my routine, whether that means a long walk, some playtime, or simply providing companionship and attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to be reliable and attentive while still balancing my academic responsibilities. The safety and well-being of your pet is my top priority. I will take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, triggers, and any specific needs before providing care. I will always follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and home routines, and I will be attentive to your pet’s behavior and surroundings. During walks, I will use proper leash safety, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure your pet is comfortable and secure at all times. As a nursing student, I am trained to be detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and attentive to changes in health or behavior. I will provide regular updates and communicate with you throughout your pet’s care so you can feel confident that your furry family member is safe and well cared for.
“Maggie was AMAZING! She took the best care of our two dogs for over a week and she went above and beyond. She was timely and sweet and made sure our dogs were comfortable and well cared for! She took them for walks and fed them their treats and took lots of pictures to keep us updated on our trip! I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur children. She is definitely trustworthy and helpful and we appreciate her!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Hills
Hannah was awesome with my cat, Gus! Gus doesn’t like a lot of new people, but Hannah was super chill and assured me they would be buddies by the time I got back from my vacation. She sent me pictures and updates daily and went above and beyond like sweeping the litter Gus loves to kick out of the box.
Evelynn was very kind when I met her during our meet and greet, and she did a wonderful job with my dog Zoe who can be quite reactive and a bit nervous at times. She was very communicative with me and followed all of my directions perfectly! Overall, she did an amazing job with both my animals!
Isabell was wonderful! Batman and Skye were grateful for Isabel. She also took great care of my mini horse, Baxter and my two goats Billy and Bobby. She sent me pictures every day which was great! Isabel also found a lost dog while she was at my house and found the owner. She is an animal liver for sure!!
Jillian was wonderful with our 5 kitties! She took the time to earn their trust, especially the shy ones. There were several occasions where she stayed longer to brush, pet, and play with them since we were gone for over a week. Our cats seemed happy and healthy when we returned. We'd definitely have her watch our kitties again and highly recommend her for anyone with multiple cats!
Richard went above and beyond caring for our girls, with not only the necessities, but also by giving them more love and attention than we had ever expected. We truly felt peace of mind knowing our girls were in great hands. Richard also made two new furry friends, which was impressive considering how shy our cats usually are, and sent us wonderful pictures at every visit. We are so grateful and more than satisfied! ❤️
Vanessa was an amazing pet sitter! She was very friendly and communicative throughout the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated all the updates and the pictures she sent of Luna and Miles. She made sure to walk Luna every evening and kept up with their routine perfectly. Vanessa was also very punctual with her drop-in visits, always arriving right on time. You can truly tell she cares about the pets she looks after. I would definitely book her again.
It was such a load off our minds to have Lacy check in on our kitties while we were on vacation. She let us know when she would be there and sent lots of pictures and videos of them which was nice when we were missing them! She also helped keeping an eye on things in and around the house. I will definitely use her services 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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
