“Great experience with Xuni! She was professional, punctual, and communicative throughout the entire trip. I especially loved the twice-daily check-ins; the 'proof of life' photos and videos she sent were fantastic and really put my mind at ease while I was away. Beyond just the basics, she went the extra mile by bringing in packages and keeping the litter area spotless. Most importantly, I came home to very calm and content cats—it was clear Maizey and Clementine were well-cared for and not stressed at all. I’ll definitely be booking her again. Highly recommended!”
“Nicole took fantastic care of my little kitten! Hamilton is a young rescue, and had only been in his new home for a few weeks, so I was nervous leaving him for the weekend, but Nicole kept him safe, happy, and loved. She sent tons of pictures and great updates every day, and always knowing how he was doing was extremely comforting. I came home to a very happy little guy! Her love of animals is very clear and Hammy took to her right away. I appreciated her compassion, promptness, and professionalism and I would highly recommend using Nicole as your next pet sitter! She will certainly be my first choice when I need someone to care for Hammy in the future.”
“Mariann did a great job communicating with us and being flexible about scheduling. She gave my elderly cat her pill twice daily and kept us in the loop. I felt very comfortable leaving Missy in her capable hands!”
“I think Moonlight likes Leah better than us! He was immediately smitten. She took care of necessities like food and water exactly as needed. But she also made sure to play with this feisty feline so he didn't get bored. And the daily pictures were so much fun to see.”
“Nicole was so great throughout the whole process! She took such great care of our cat, including administering important medicine. She brought so much love and care to our home. We always looked forward to her great pictures too!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I have 2 of my own at the moment as well as spending a lot of time volunteering at a local shelter and have met many different breeds. I am more than happy to watch over a sweet senior or a bouncy puppy, just let me know! I'm currently taking classes online, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I'm available most days to pet sit or take the pups for walks. I would love to do a 'meet and greet' with your fur babies if you would like. Feel free to message me as much as needed!
About: Hi there! I’m a current veterinary student at Tufts University and a former veterinary assistant with three summers of clinical experience. I’ve cared for animals of all shapes and would love to care for your pet too. I’ve grown up with big dogs so large breeds and high-energy pups don’t intimidate me. To my mother’s dismay, I brought home snake while I was in middle school and have experience caring for lizards, turtles, and tortoises too. During my undergrad I spent time working on ranches and farms. And, finally, in my post grad I fostered cats of all ages. Basically, I can take care of whatever animal you have (except for maybe a tiger…). I’m trained in safely administering medications of all types (oral, topical, injectable), and am comfortable supporting pets with chronic or special needs. I’m big on reading body language and will always respect your pet’s needs, whether that’s extra snuggles or some alone time. My goal is to ensure that both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable. Communication is huge for me. Expect plenty of photo updates while you’re away (unless you don’t want that of course). I have reliable transportation and take pride in being punctual. Outside of school, I’m fairly active. I spent my summer hiking around Colorado and am trying to maintain a frequent physical activity while in school. I’d love to add walking your dog into my schedule. If I sound like a potential fit, feel free to reach out! I would love to meet you and your pet. I am a full-time veterinary student with classes on weekdays. Most of my required labs take place in the afternoon, and I typically have a lunch break from around 11:50-1:00. This allows me for some shorter drop-ins around lunch if you are close to the Tufts Campus. Because of my school schedule, I’m most available in the later afternoons (anytime after 5pm), overnight, and early morning. I have some required classes that start at 8am, but our schedules are constantly changing. House sitting works especially well for me as it allows me to give your pet attention in the morning and evenings while keeping their routine consistent. (I also get a study buddy who won’t judge my old fashioned note taking). Due to currently living with a roommate’s dog, I am unable to care for pets in my home. When caring for people’s pets in their home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to keep things predictable and as stress-free for their pet as possible. I will make sure that I follow all house rules, keep a safe and clean environment, and give the pet lots of attention to make sure that they’re healthy and cared for. I provide regular updates and photos so that owners know their pet is in good-hands while they are away.
About: Hello nice to meet you! I am not simply boarding your pet. I am playing with them and taking them for walks and spoiling them. Im offering services for fun not a necessity. I work from home and your pet will be taken care of and monitored constantly as if it was my own the entire time. Your furry friend is my friend too. Clean & Professional. I have a great career that allows me to work from home. I do rover for fun. When you book with me you are booking someone who gives full attention to your pet. Safety first! I would be scared to leave my dog with someone. All pets deserve a pleasant experience. With me you can feel safe your pet is in good hands, you are welcome to visit my home for boarding!
“Michelle was so easy to communicate with, thoughtful, and caring. I felt at ease leaving my cat and guinea pig with her despite it being the first time my cat was left alone for a few days! We will definitely book with Michelle again!”
About: Hi! I’m Kendall, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I own Kenny’s Canine LLC, a fully insured pet care business, and I truly love caring for dogs. I specialize in providing a safe, comfortable, home-like environment for small dogs. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy time outside. I intentionally keep my boarding numbers low so every dog receives plenty of individual attention, enrichment, exercise, and affection. I have experience with dogs of many different personalities and energy levels, from playful adults to sweet seniors. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed and always do my best to stick to each dog’s normal routine so they feel right at home. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. That’s why I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family, and I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I’m currently only doing dog walking and pet sitting, so I have plenty of time and availability to help care for your furry friends, and make your life easier! I provide a calm, home-like environment where every dog receives plenty of attention, supervised play, outdoor time in my fully fenced yard, enrichment, and lots of love. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.
“Laura was great! She took such good care of our two kitties while we were away and was responsive, kind, and professional. She sent lots of pictures and updates, which helped put us at ease knowing our cats were safe and cared for :). Our cats loved her and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
About: I've been looking after dogs, cats, and exotic pets for about 10 years now. I have a dog, 2 cats, and a leopard gecko of my own, so I know how to take care of all types of animals! I originally started my pet care journey with family pets, and slowly began gaining clients through family friends and being recommended to other people. I have handled all age ranges from kittens to seniors, so I'm able to do a wide array of services (administering medicine, being extra observant, correcting behavior, training, etc.) I'm able to be outside in all kinds of weather, and I can walk or play with your animals for as long as you prefer! I currently work full-time, but I still have plenty of time to care for your animals! My work is very flexible and I am often able to step away to visit your animals. I am completely free on Saturday afternoons, all day Sunday, and all day Monday. Depending on what environment your animal has at your home, I cater to your every preference. On leash, off leash, crated, no pets on furniture, etc. I always make sure to respect my clients homes and most importantly their wishes!
About: I work as a part time veterinary technician, very confident in giving medications. Will stay at your home with your pets to help them be as comfortable as possible and stay on routine while their owners are away. Love taking them for walks and hikes and make sure we have plenty of play time together! I would love to meet your fur-babies and help you be able to relax and enjoy your time away. I send updates and pictures so owners know their babies are enjoying their time too! I currently work part time as a veterinary technician, my shifts are between 5-7 hours Monday through Friday. Can do potty breaks during the longer shifts if needed. I stay in your house with your pets so they are comfortable in their own environment and follow their regular routine as much as possible. Plenty of time for exercise and play!
“Ashley did a wonderful job caring for our 2 kitties and administering meds while we were away. Very much appreciated the updates while we were away. The house was also spotless when we returned.”
About: I’ve lived and worked with dogs my whole life; big and small, young and old, and a variety of breeds. I started walking friends’ and neighbors’ dogs on my own as a teenager, and I first stayed over as a dog sitter not long after that. Over the years, I’ve gotten quick at reading what a dog needs in the moment, whether that’s more physical activity, some quiet space, or just reassurance and time, and giving them exactly that. I’m comfortable handling the messier and more unpredictable parts of the job too, from accidents to nervous or anxious behavior, without missing a beat. More than anything, I love spending time with animals, and I can’t wait to build a real connection with every animal I work with. - Dog walker for 14+ years (more than 20 dogs, all sizes/ages) -Dog sitter for 10+ years (More than 12 dogs, including households with multiple pets, multiple night stays, familiar and first-time clients) I currently work part-time in a remote role, which gives me plenty of flexibility during the day/week to walk, feed, and play with dogs without any sense of time limitations. I’m available across weekdays and weekends, and almost any time of day, whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening stay. I care for your pets as if they are my own. My promise is to engage with your pet on your terms and with the utmost transparency and communication. I’ll follow the expectations you set (feeding time, walks, medications) so your dog’s routine is as normal as possible while you’re away. I will keep you in the loop throughout with updates, photos, and check-ins. This same care extends to your home, tidy, undisturbed, and just as you left it.
“Erinn was amazing. So responsive and helpful when my disabled cat needed specialized attention when I was unable to provide it myself. She is my first call if I need her aid. And my cats both love her. She is an amazingly calm and a joy to work with. I could not be more pleased with her help.”
“Taylah is a gentle soul who was well suited to caring for our geriatric kitty. The pictures she sent were reassuring while we had to be away for a family wedding. She communicated in a timely and thoughtful way.”

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
