“Rose was an amazing caregiver for our two cats while we were away on vacation. She was so kind, thoughtful, and communicative. We looked forward to her notes and photos each day and felt so grateful for her care of our beloved cat friends.”
“Lucas took great care of our cat Spade while we were on vacation. He always sent pictures and daily updates. He gave such great attention to our boy with daily treats, some play time and even brushing him! We will definitely book with Lucas again in the future”
“Paulette was so kind and Pammy was very elaxed when I got home, I knew she had been well taken care of. I will definitely reach out to Paulette any time I need a cat sitter in the future!”
“Great job. Prompt responses. Sweet pictures of our little dude and he wanted us to add in the review she was super sweet and loving. 😻(He’s really in charge of things.)”
“Clareese was amazing. She clearly loves animals and clicked with my cat immediately. She took the best pictures and shared them with me so I knew my cat was happy and having fun. She was attentive while she was around and she was flexible when I wanted a change in schedule. Will definitely be using her again next time!”
“Cassy did a great job caring for our two cats. They seemed very comfortable with her in the pictures she shared. And she kindly dealt with cat mischief (plant pot disaster). Strong recommend.”
“I am so grateful to have had Heather provide her care to my cat, Merri, over the holidays. I want to highlight how she went above and beyond over the blizzard, going over for an extra visit (without me asking) to let the faucets drip and make sure Merri was warm enough. Thank you so much, and happy new year, Heather.”
About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
“Haley has been so helpful to check in on my cat while im in the hospital. you can tell she loves pets. i was so anxious knowing he was home alone. she helps me know hes being fed and loved.”
About: I’ve looked after multiple dogs of different breeds and sizes so I have experience looking after nearly all kinds of dogs. I am capable of also looking after multiples dogs at once, truly caring for them, and playing with them. My wife and I will spend our time and efforts to make your dog feel at home. As I have dogs of my own, it will fit like a glove as I will be caring for your dog alongside my own. I will treat your dog like my own. Dogs are very important to me regardless whether it’s my own dog or someone else’s. I will make sure that dog is safe and feels cared for in any environment.
“Tony did a wonderful job dropping in on my cat. Tony spent a lot of time getting to know her and from his updates I could tell she was very comfortable when he was visiting. Great check-ins, fun pictures, and I felt very assured my cat was being well cared for by Tony.”
“Regan is very professional, detailed and friendly. My cat really likes her. It really took some stress off my trip knowing I had someone so responsible stopping by.”
“Morgan was awesome! Great communication, followed our care instructions, and sent multiple cute pics of Murphy per visit (when she was out of hiding, that is!). We will definitely book Morgan again!”
“Lyndsay was an excellent sitter for our cat while we were away for a week, and gave us lots of peace of mind. We would happily book her again (and likely will).”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Wilkinsburg
Kristiana did a great job. She reported it took a couple visits for everybody to warm up to her, but they did. We came home to happy, relaxed kitty cats ready to play with us. She also followed all our instructions/requests and kept us informed throughout our time away.
Vanessa took amazing care of our two cats while we were away, the daily photos showed happy playful kitties who were getting all the attention they craved! Clear communication and prompt arrival times the entire trip, I never had to worry and could fully enjoy our trip. Definitely would rebook with Vanessa.

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.
