“Claire has been a Godsend since I went back into the office. Amber absolutely loves her! When I ask her if Claire came to see her today she gets super excited 😄 I know if she could speak she'd tell me all about her adventures and belly rubs with Claire ❤️”
“We feel so lucky to have had found Mimi!!! We were an entire ocean away and felt very relaxed with Mimi taking care of the dogs. I especially appreciated her communication throughout the time! She is officially our go-to when in need of some help with the dogs.”
About: Ive pet sit since I was 14, both paid and unpaid, and I love it! I have experience with difficult dogs/cats (multiple high energy pups in one home) and a moody pet does not scare me off. Currently, 30 hours, of my week (~5hrs a day) is spent at my job at a cafe. Outside of that I can fit your fur baby into my schedule before or after work or on my off days! I never work late and my schedule is very flexible Being able to read the body language of your pup/kitty is a crucial skill that I have a lot of experience in. Being in your home, I know Im in their space
“Ashely was very communicative and did a great job sending lots of pictures! We really appreciate her taking such good care of our pups and will definitely use her again!”
“Faith was great with my four cats! Even the one who hides all the time she made sure he had his food. Twice a day feedings and litter maintenance. Will for sure request her again!”
“Olivia was amazing with my babies while I was out of town for a few days and made me feel at ease during a time that I would’ve been extremely worried and stressed. Would definitely recommend her services to know that your loved ones are safe and secure when you can’t be there.”
“Needed someone for drop ins last minute and so thankful to have found Garrett!! Garrett was punctual, communication was consistent & thorough. He asked questions in order to get to know us and was enthusiastic about his time with Amber. They immediately got along and had a great visit each day. Thanks so much Garrett, we will definitely book with you again 😊”
About: Growing up, my nuclear family cared for roughly thirty cats, both indoor and outdoor. Naturally, part of my daily routine was feeding them all before getting on the school bus, keeping the litter boxes and surrounding areas tidy throughout the day, and of course providing AMPLE love to all. I have experience nursing abandoned kittens to health and maturity, as well as acclimating feral cats into the home. I am more than keen when it comes to feline behavior! (My mother used to "joke" that her four children should come together and open a vet clinic.) Today, my husband and I have a well-trained, 3 year old shepherd mix named Poet, whom we adopted at just 8 weeks old, and a 5 year old American bobtail kitty named Millie, who we also rescued. We both work from home and our animals are our absolute lives. Normal days for us include walks around the neighborhood, as well as trips to City Bark. We have a fenced in backyard for potty time, as well as sun bathing. Both as our animal have free reign of our home; they watch TV with us, answer email with us, snooze with us, cook with us, etc.! You can trust that your fur baby would be met with the same love, adoration, and care that we provide to our own. Both my husband and myself work from home and are able to provide near-constant care for your fur babies, whether that pertain to potty breaks or play time! We have a modest fenced in yard, as well as one dog and one cat of our own. Both are friendly with all species! We have ample space (spare bedrooms) to set up up a crate/kennel if desired.
“Once again Renee did a great job with our German Shepherd. She really makes sure he’s taken care of, not just fed and watered. She responds quickly and communicates with every visit. Feel completely comfortable leaving the dog at home.”
“Cody does a great job!! Sebastian took right to her and I appreciate how caring she is. She provides thorough communication letting me know how he’s doing with each day. Makes it easier to be away from home when I know he is well cared for.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for family and friends for weekends and overnight stays when they went out town. I've walked , fed, played, and bathed them when needed. Mostly big dogs and cats but I am comfortable with small dogs as well :) I work remote so I am available all day to watch your fur children :) I am flexible with my schedule as long as I know in advance I am needed . I will have your fur children in my home or backyard (depending on your requests). They are allowed to sleep and be on my furniture .
“Celeste was so sweet! We felt very comfortable having her watch our cat while we were out of town. She was super accommodating and we loved the photos that she sent us. We will definitely book with Celeste again.”
About: I have 2 dogs, a boxer named Goose that is a rescue and a lemon beagle. I love all animals and I will treat your dog or cat like it’s my own. I have a very flexible schedule. Im employed under contract basis and I’m working on a special project is which allows for very flexible availability. I’m available for feedings, play time, long walks or just to spend time with your animal. I love to cuddle or play indoors or outdoors
“Becks was amazing and super communicative the entire time I was away! I loved all the updates and photos that were provided, really made me feel like I was right at home. I would highly recommend Becks for your cat or dog needs. Couldn't ask for anyone better!”
“Morgan was great! She was quick and easy to communicate with and followed all our instructions for keeping our cat healthy and happy while we were out of town. She even spent a little extra time with him which was nice. Would recommend and will be booking with her again!”
About: I am former Vet Tech and Pet Adoption Counselor who loves to provide all animals care. I have over 12 years experience in animal healthcare. I currently work from home. So your pet will have plenty of care and attention. They can be walked and played with and feed at your appointed time. I do not have any pets of my own. So your furry baby will have my un divided attention. I have a pet playpen also.

Delaney is truly the best. This is the second time she watched Gwen and I feel like she cares for her like her own! She’s always taking many pictures and leaving great updates. She went above and beyond, is super flexible, and I will continue to use her whenever I am out of town. Thank you so much!!
We had a wonderful experience with Cristina! She was communicative, thorough, and took amazing care of our cat, who requires multiple eye drop medications each day. We appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westwego. On Rover:

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
