“Kim was an excellent and caring caregiver for Bella and Izzy. Punctual and thorough in fulfilling her committed duties. She wasn’t in a hurry to leave, each day she would sit on the floor for the cats to come and then pet and play with them. If your looking for someone to care for you pets as you do then I would highly recommend You use Kim. You will not find a better caregiver for your beloved pet.”
“Took care of our social cat for days while we are on vacation. My cat was healthy and happy when I returned! Let me know my cat threw up a hairball and cleaned it up for us!”
“Cheryl is THE BEST! She came to meet my 3 big fur babies fully prepared with treats in one hand and notebook in the other, winning the dogs, and me, over immediately! She asked all the right questions before I even fully introduced the pups. Cheryl is communicative, accommodating, and so helpful. I get pictures of my fur babies and she keeps me informed of every detail along the way. I highly recommend Cheryl! The pups and I can't wait to welcome her for more pet sitting!”
“Genevieve is reliable, caring and very gentle with my puppy. My puppy just had surgery, Genevieve kept an eye on her surgical site and kept her from licking it or running which could hurt her.”
“Caitlin did a great job taking care of Bethany while I was away, and even got her to play a bit! Thanks for making sure I didn't have to worry while I was gone 😊”
“Gabby was awesome! It was the first time we left our dog at home. She communicated so well and took the most adorable pictures. Both our cat and dog were happy when we got home! I also felt very comfortable with her in our home!”
“Chad did an amazing job with Samson! It's been really hard finding a suitable person for Samson as he can be very shy and hard to interact with because of this, but I'm so glad we found Chad on Rover. We will definitely use his services in the future!”
“I booked Nancy at the last minute and for a holiday weekend, yet she fit me right in. She came over every day and loved on my Rottie, and I know he was so happy to have a friend to play ball with him. Nancy responded to messages very quickly and communicated well with me the whole time. I highly recommend!”
“Jesse was absolutely amazing!!! She went above and beyond anything we could have expected. She took phenomenal care of our dogs and loved on them like they were her own. Her communication was impeccable. We will most definitely be repeat customers. If you’re looking to have peace of mind while you’re away, and if you’re looking for someone that you can trust to take care of your 4 legged babies, Jesse is your person!”
“Rachel was great! Very friendly and came over beforehand so we could show her around. We gave pretty detailed directions for our cats and she did a great job and was very communicative. Would definitely book with her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. From taking in strays, caring for neighbors animals while they are away, and working at a doggy daycare, caring for animals has become a big part of my life and I wouldn’t change it for anything. Ive cared for it all from sick and injured animals to baby puppies and kittens. Any animal I am trusted with will be loved and treated like my own. I work part time at a doggy daycare so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Your pets well being is my #1 priority. I’ve worked with a variety of pups, from agressive and reactive to lazy little seniors. Whatever your pets personality may be, I will love and care for them like they are my own.
About: I have been a dog owner for most of my life and am an avid dog lover and pet caregiver. For over ten years, I have cared for pets not only personally but also for family members and friends. Currently, I have two dogs that we’ve had since they were puppies: an elderly Shih Tzu Maltese mix who is living his best life, and a miniature schnauzer who is incredibly sweet but dislikes being left alone. We also have a cat who graciously allows us to live with her. In the past, I have owned birds, fish, and guinea pigs, so I am comfortable handling a variety of pets at all life stages. I have a very flexible schedule, being home most days, which allows me to provide your pets with excellent care and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am organized and detail-oriented, so you can count on me to care for your pets according to their specific needs and your wishes. I would like to understand your expectations, your pets' needs, and their quirks to do an exceptional job for both of you. Please inform me of any medical issues, anxiety, leash aggression, jumping, hiding, licking, or escaping behaviors. If I have any questions or concerns at any point, I will reach out to you immediately. I appreciate the special love and patience required for senior pet care, and I also remember the energetic puppy stages well, enjoying the opportunity to care for both. I will interact with your pet according to their preferences and yours. This may include walks, fetch, cuddles, scratches, quick chats, feedings, and water changes. Just let me know what you are looking for. As a homeowner, I understand the responsibility of providing excellent care for your pet and home. If you hire me for drop-ins or house/pet sitting, you can rest assured that you will return to everything as it should be. Having used pet sitting services in the past myself, I understand how crucial great care, trust, and communication are.
“Brendan did two drop in visits for my two dogs and I have nothing but good things to say about our experience. He’s punctual, great communication, and follows all of my annoying instructions. He does well with both my senior dog and my younger anxious dog, leaving us with happy pups when we get home. We are booking him again for our week long vacation in August.”
About: Pet care is my full time job, so I have open availability! I am also a proud owner of a fully trained German Shepard. I’m open to doing dog walking/playtime, day sitting and overnights! I’m a full time student graduating in criminal justice with bachelor degree this coming summer 2027 who is responsible and dependable. All prices are negotiable depending on the needs. I’ve been a pet lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old. I’m 22 yrs old now and a proud owner of a 5 yr old German Shepherd who is fully trained. I believe all animals deserve one on one attention, care, & Love. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are met first. Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name. Whether in my home or at a clients home I follow any specific care instructions, maintain a clean space and provide consistent attentions, love and care to help pets feel safe and happy in my presence.
“Jerriana was great with our puppy Rocky. He has plenty of energy being a 10 month old, and really loved playing fetch and going on walks with her while we were away. Would definitely recommend Jerriana for any drop-in visits!”
“John is amazing! He is very accommodating with his time. Came to meet the pack the week before the schedule date. The dogs loved him. Then the day before scheduled sit I had to reschedule for the following week due to illness. He was able and willing to change dates. I will definitely rebook with him.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Westport
Ashley was very communicative and timely! If she was running late she was sure to let us know well ahead of time. Always sent pictures and assured us things were in place, the door locked, and the pets happy! Even with plans changing she was flexible and awesome.
Suzy has been absolutely wonderful with our fur babies, and we’ve been using her for over a year now. She truly knows them, their routines, and their personalities, and it shows in the way she cares for them. She’s always on time and sends thoughtful, detailed updates with photos after each visit, which gives us complete peace of mind. We trust her completely with our pets and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

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.
