“Jessica is so kind and considerate, and always makes me feel so comfortable leaving my kitten at home with her. I’ve never seen my shy kitten warm up to anyone as fast as she has with Jessica! She is very communicative and asks thoughtful questions. So glad I found her!”
“Jenna was amazing! Super responsive and kept me updated while she cared for my kitty! She’s a cat whisperer btw lol, my cat is normally very scared of new people but she happily greeted Jenna on the first visit. Definitely recommend to others!”
“Jessica took such great care of my cats during repeated visits for the week I was not home. By the end of the week my cats wanted to follow her home :) She was especially patient with play time with my higher energy orange kitty boy and keeping my place so clean!!! Would love to have Jessica cat sit for us again anytime!”
“Stephanie was fantastic! She was punctual, polite, and very thorough, asking all the right questions to make sure our pets were well taken care of. She was incredibly kind and attentive to our dogs, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about them. Stephanie was a huge help while we were away on our camping trip. She not only took great care of our dogs, but also fed our pet betta fish and made sure Luna received her medication. Knowing that everything was being handled while we were away gave us great peace of mind. We really appreciate how responsible, caring, and communicative Stephanie was. We would definitely reach out to her again the next time we need someone to care for our pets. Highly recommend her!”
“This is my second time booking with Jazmine and I’m happy to say that everything was just as amazing as the first time. She took great care of my baby and kept me up to date with notes and pictures while I was away. Will happily book again next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful! She put both us and our shy kitties at ease during their first stay home alone. She was prompt, flexible, provided helpful daily updates, and is clearly an animal lover! We definitely hope to work with her again.”
“Sophia was wonderful with our two cats! They quickly felt comfortable with her which was huge plus for our shy girl. She sent us daily updates with pictures and was always quick to respond to messages. Highly recommend and would book again!”
“Michelle was great! She was attentive and caring towards my older shy cat. I liked that Michelle took the time to send great pictures and notes that made me feel and know my cat was in great care. Thank you”
“Mel is awesome! Very professional, easy to get along with, great communication, reliable and absolutely great with our dogs! Frank (our large male pitbull mix) and Becky (our medium female bulldog) both adored Mel from the first moment they met her. She is very much Frank and Becky approved! Mel's done a great job taking care of our pups, she's a fantastic pet professional, and we highly recommend her services!”
“Natalie is awesome. She has done a few drop ins for my cat. I used to leave him home alone, but he wouldn’t eat well and nervous when I got home. I love now that I come home and he is as content as can be. He eats and uses his litter box. He isn’t nervous and I love that I get so many pictures that I don’t feel guilty about taking the dog and leaving the cat lol. I think he’s getting as spoiled as the dog. Natalie is awesome.”
“Liz was great! She sent just the right amount of daily updates and pictures to make me feel comfortable about things back home. If you're a cat parent, I highly recommend reaching out to her.”
“Khaili was great! She was available on short notice and we appreciated the meet and greet. Our cats were kept happy and she did great sending updates, communicating, and following our care instructions. I would highly recommend her and will be booking her to sit our kitties again!”
“Holly has watched our pets multiple times— she’s always thoughtful and communicative, and we leave town knowing with certainty that our pets are in amazing hands. When Holly sends photos or videos of our cats, they’re always at ease and doing their favorite activities (playing with their toys, making biscuits, and just generally having a great time.) Thank you so much for another great visit, Holly!”
About: I love playing with and walking dogs. I am also a cat lover. No matter the pet, I like to get to know them, what makes them unique and how I can win their affection. I have been watching friends and family’s pets for the past 7 years and grew up taking care of a dog and a few cats. I have experience with younger and senior dogs, senior kitties and being around kittens basically 24/7. I’ve administered medication to foster kittens and have fed a very picky senior cat. I would be honored to help keep your pets happy and healthy and would do whatever I can to make them feel loved and cared for. I am happy to visit for feeding, walks or playtime during your busy work day. Friday-Monday require a couple days planning in advance. I’m currently looking for a full time job, so I’m very flexible. I am happy to meet whatever the needs are for your pets, whether feeding, playing, brushing, medication. I love playing with pets and giving them pets. Give me clear instructions and I will be set. I am unable to host/board pets due to my apartment rules.
About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life, and volunteered at the Bradshaw Animal Shelter for a year after college. I've fostered kittens and a senior cat with medical issues, and cared for many older pets over my life. I once house sit for a family with rabbits so I have a little bit of familiarity with them. I have house sit for friends with a standard poodle and a mini doodle, including giving the standard poodle his daily medication and taking them both for twice daily trips to the park. I have also checked in on my parents' two dogs and 5+ cats to feed them, let them out for potty breaks, play with them, and give them medication. My sweet orange tabby got cancer a few years ago and I fed him three times a day through a feeding tube and administered his medication as well. I work some evenings, so I am free most of the day to care for your furry friends. I take care of my own senior kitty in the mornings, after my evening shifts, and during any free days. I have pet sat for friends and family before, including giving medication and two daily walks. I will follow all instructions to the letter and ensure your pet feels right at home.
About: ur friendly neighborhood avid animal lover here to help you with your fur babies! as a former animal shelter employee and current animal hospital worker, I’m familiar with all different kinds of dogs and cats of different ages, breeds, demeanors and needs. I’m comfortable with young puppies to seniors, nervous/shy cats, those who need medication and anyone in between ☺️ I’m located right in the heart of the Mission District and work in Noe Vallley, so anywhere in those two areas are easy for me to access. I also have a car and can access further if need be! As someone who has seen plenty of emergency cases in my profession, I’m very specially aware within people’s homes of what may be considered safe or unsafe for your baby. Just let me know if I need to keep an extra eye on a specific room or piece of furniture in your room!
“Kirthi, oh my goodness. I’ve had many sitters from Rover in the past, but definitely felt most comfortable with Kirthi dropping in to see my cats. I appreciated the check-in before I left and then the attention to detail each day while I was gone. I received reports about the cats’ food, water, activities, etc. and even a couple pictures. I definitely will be asking Kirthi to keep an eye on my kitties next time I travel.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Sacramento
Jaclyn did an amazing job in caring for our cats. Even when her phone was out of commission and she wasn't able to get in touch with us or Rover, she came by every day to take care of the cats and made sure they have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and fresh food. I really appreciate her care for dedication to making sure our cats were cared for.
Kacey and Liz always do such an amazing job with our babies! We are always left unworried whenever my wife and I are on a trip because of how they much they love all our kitties. We enjoy all the pictures they send after every visit and it brings us so much joy knowing that we'll be coming home to some well fed babies after our trips. I highly recommend booking Kacey and Liz as they are so patient, caring and loving!
Bao was wonderful with our cats while we were away! She took great care of them, kept us updated, and always sent plenty of pictures, which we really appreciated. Harold needed some extra care while recovering, and Bao was great about giving him his medication and spending time with him in the separate room where we were keeping him. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was being looked after so well. Bao is reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the animals she watches. We would absolutely trust her with our cats again and highly recommend her!
Jessica took such great care of my cats during repeated visits for the week I was not home. By the end of the week my cats wanted to follow her home :) She was especially patient with play time with my higher energy orange kitty boy and keeping my place so clean!!! Would love to have Jessica cat sit for us again anytime!
Jandy was extremely attentive to our cats while we were away and remembered little things about them that we had shared that seemed to make us being away easier on them! She did a lot more than just clean litters and feed them—the interaction was key to make us feel like our kitties were doing okay without us. She was patient with our cat who can be a cranky to others. 10/10 recommend!
Khaili was great! She was available on short notice and we appreciated the meet and greet. Our cats were kept happy and she did great sending updates, communicating, and following our care instructions. I would highly recommend her and will be booking her to sit our kitties again!
Delaney has been our go to pet sitter for a while now. She is always very responsive in all messaging and takes great photos and notes with updates on how our kitties are doing while she is there. Definitely puts my family at ease knowing that they are so well cared for when we are away.

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 .

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.
