“Was absolutely wonderful taking care of our cat, posted regular check-in information and made us feel relaxed knowing our cat was in good hands. Would highly recommend!”
“Shelby was absolutely fantastic!!! She took amazing care of our two kittens and our home while we were away on vacation for the week. Shelby was so easy to communicate with and sent us daily updates and pictures. She also left our home exactly how we left it and helped bring in mail and packages throughout the week. Our babies were well cared for and we will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I’m a dog (and cat!) mom looking for a fun way to keep myself accountable on my health journey! I’m a 41 year old mom to a teenage boy, a 9 year old yorkie mix (Severus), and 10 cats! I’ve been on a journey to better myself for the past year and one thing I make sure I do is get my steps in. I thought it would be a great idea to put myself out there to make some new dog friends and help keep me (and the doggos) getting our exercise in! I work full time from home Monday through Friday from 7am to 330pm. My walking availability is any time after my work day through the week, and open to anytime on the weekends. For sitting/drop ins, please inquire. For boarding, pets will be with me all day and night. I have 10+ years of experience caring for animals, my house is full of love, treats and toys! If you book me for services, you can be assured that same love will be given to your furry friend. Feeding schedules followed as provided by pet parent to ensure your pup is getting the required amount of food. My dog eats freely except when I’m boarding as to not disrupt any schedules. I currently have one dog (Severus), who is a yorkie mix and 10 total cats, some indoor/outdoor/mix. Our home gets hectic but we love our animals and can’t imagine life any differently.
“Jayde was amazing! Our girl Luna absolutely fell in love with her and had the best time. She kept us updated, took great care of Luna, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“My senior Goldendoodle was so loved and cared for during visits by Emma. Emma was easy to work with in organizing the visits. She was on time for appointments and truly spent quality time with my pup. I trust her with being in my home and caring for my pet-family. I will call on Emma again...she's awesome!”
About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was young. I currently am a supervisor at a vet clinic in Columbus and am looking to make some extra money on the side. I have been working in the vet field for 3+ years and currently a undergrad student with a dream to go to vet school. I am a big animal lover and have a big personality! I would love to love your babies as my own. I am currently a clinical supervisor at a vet clinic in Columbus. I handle cats and dogs from all ages all day long. I am looking for a side job to help my community as well as spread my love for animals. I work 9-5pm on the weekdays but are completely free on the weekends. I have two dogs of my own that have lots of energy. I know how to tire my babies out. Some days they decide to be couch-potatoes and I can relate! I have experience with all types of activity levels and social levels. This also related to cats as well!! Every animal is different and I believe their care is too! I'm willing to accommodate and make your babies happy anyway I can.
About: I’ve dog-sat (and house-sat) for friends for a while, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing happy dogs! I love taking them for long walks or runs, spending the day playing with them, and of course giving them plenty of hugs and pets! ❤️🐶 I’m currently working full-time, so during the week I’m available to go on short walks during lunch and make sure your dog is fed and can use the bathroom. I can spend time with them in the evenings as well, and I’m also available for house sitting to keep them company while you’re away! I don’t have any pets of my own at home, but I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets of friends and family members. I like taking them for walks through neighborhoods or parks where they can meet other dogs or people and see new places!
About: I looove dogs. I have had up to 4 dogs at a time with every age from 4 months to 14 years. I have housebroken puppies and helped older dogs walk with a harness. I am quick to recognize issues and can determine how serious they are based on my years of experience. I have helped save countless lives volunteering to transport and keep dogs overnight at my house. I am currently a volunteer for the Cause for Canines rescue, helping match dogs looking for homes with families looking for dogs. I am not currently working and have others in my household to watch my dog while I am away. I can easily make your pet a priority base on how often they need to be let out, walked, cuddled, etc. I will not bring my dog to your home. I am comfortable and familiar with crating dogs when away from the home for their safety. They always have access to water and toys with supervision, but once the toys are destroyed I take them away to prevent obstructions. Daily walks of at least 30 minutes are a must. Cat care varies based on the needs of the cat. Some can be free fed, some require meal times. Litter boxes would be cleaned daily. I prefer to keep them indoors for their safety.
“Riley did amazing with my dog Kiko. Kiko is very nervous and takes a long time warming up to new people but Riley knew what they were doing and was so patient with Kiko! They were reliable and took great care of Kiko. I will definitely be booking them again!”

I always have a phone on me so if I need to contact someone or I need contacted that will never be an issue and I am never late and will always be there for your furry friends!
About: Animals are my entire life, and also my eventual career! Over 10 years ago I started walking my neighbors dogs and fell in love with animal care. Since then, I have gained a ton of experience by working with all sorts of animals in my high school animal labs and farms, working in a small animal vet clinic, volunteering at shelters and ICUs, pet sitting for family friends, knowledge through my animal science courses, and much more. I love all types of animals, and I truly hope to provide the best of service to your family pets! I am currently a college student, but I have a lot of free time throughout the week and the weekends to provide my services. My best availability is from Fri-Sun, however I can still fit quality care throughout most of the week Every time I let your pet go outside, I always make sure to have them on a leash to keep control of them for everyone’s safety. In fenced in areas, I am always outside with them to supervise so they have someone to play with and make sure they are keeping out of trouble. I am very flexible in pet care and will do whatever it takes to cater to their needs
About: I’ve been walking with another app, and I absolutely love it! I have a few regular clients I see, but I would love to add a few more fur babies to my daily agenda :) I’m currently saving for my wedding, and I’m a stay at home mom, so every dollar is greatly appreciated! :) I promise your babies are in great hands. I’m currently a stay at home, with more than enough time on my hands! Honestly taking care of the fur babies brings me so much joy, while I can still enjoy the freedoms of not having a “9-5” job. I’m very thankful for each and every opportunity’ The most safe!!! I’m a mom and I have eyes like a hawk! They are in great hands. I truly take a lot of pride in the work that I do, and I know each and every fur baby is irreplaceable and I treat them as such :)

“Nevaeh helped us navigate a tough situation where we emergently needed someone to watch one of our cats who recently had surgery. She took great care of him and was very timely in her responses as well. We would definitely want her to help pet sit for us again! She’s incredible ‼️😁”

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 .

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