“Sara is amazing! She took the time to give detailed messages with every drop-in and the cutest pictures. It’s not easy leaving your pets at home while you’re away but knowing they’re in good hands makes it a little better. I can’t wait to use Sara again in the future!”
“She did a great job taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we were on a 7 day cruise. They were definitely well cared for. Would definitely rebook with her again!”
“Michelle is an absolutely wonderful person who loves animals. She was great with her visits. Pictures showed my dog was a happy camper with her around. He’s never been left behind at home. He usually boards at a local facility. They were booked for the holidays, so, I went this route. It was a good decision.”
“Morgan is such an excellent and caring pet friend! She took amazing care of my cat for five days that I was out of town and was sure to give me detailed updates about all her visits. I was so thrilled to have found such a wonderful, kind, and attentive caretaker for my pet. 11/10 stars!”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with difficult breeds, anxious dogs, and intensive medical care. I just recently had to say goodbye to my own dog a few months ago and saw him through many complex medical treatments, which has made me highly attentive, patient, and confident following detailed care routines. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring mobility or behavioral changes, and adapting care based on each dog’s needs. I truly love dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and compassion. Pet care used to be apart of my everyday routine and it's something I miss very much. Because I manage my own schedule, I’m able to be flexible while still providing consistent, dependable care. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on following each pet’s routine as closely as possible. I take time to understand feeding schedules, walking preferences, leash behavior, and any special instructions ahead of time. During visits, I prioritize safety, calm energy, and attentive care, while also checking food, water, litter boxes (if applicable), and the home environment. I always provide updates, photos, and notes so pet parents know how their pet is doing.
“Super communicative and so easy to work with! Went above and beyond for my old lady baby. As long as he’s available, Cameron is the only one I’d book for future visits.”
“My cat Biggie enjoyed his time with Emily while I was out of town! She is a great communicator and helped me through my first time using Rover. She left my house clean and ensured my cat was well taken care of every day.”
“Sidney was such a blessing helping watch my pups. They were so happy to have her around and they loved the new toys! She kept me posted with updates and pictures of walks and play time. Will definitely be rebooking her for house visits in the future!”
About: I taught my dog Charlotte how to give kisses and my cat Garfield how to be affectionate. Cats and dogs bring me joy and comfort. I am available Sunday through Saturday as early as 7 in the morning and can stay overnight. I only need a days notice to make it work. I like to give back to animals. My dog Charlotte got me through the worst time in my life so I repay her with walks, dog parks, groomer trips, treats, and outside time. My cat Garfield loved cat TV and being sung to sleep.
“So sweet and communicative!! Melanie gave plenty of photos and detailed reports of each visit! It was really really great having her reports and photos to review rather than spending time staring at playbacks of my home camera all vacation. I knew the cats were in good hands so I was able to be at ease on vacation!”
About: I focus on purposeful walks that help dogs feel balanced and secure rather than rushed or overstimulated. As a veteran, reliability, situational awareness, and consistency are second nature to me. I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and surroundings to ensure each walk is safe and stress-free. I keep my client list intentionally manageable so every dog receives focused attention and consistent care. I maintain a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks throughout the day and week. While my routine is structured to ensure reliability, I’m able to accommodate a wide range of times, including evenings, based on client needs. In my own home and in clients homes, I prioritize cleanliness, structure, and routine. I maintain a calm environment, monitor behavior closely, and ensure pets are always secure, supervised, and comfortable. I respect boundaries and follow care instructions exactly as provided.
About: I am an animal lover who works from home and has lots of free time! I enjoy being active so taking your pup on walks is a win/win for me. I have a 9 year old lab/beagle mix I’ve had since college and an 8 year old cat with my husband. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can always do early mornings, evenings, and usually at least around lunch time during the day. I am only able to take care of pets at their own home right now due to my lease restrictions. I am more than happy to come by for walks or boarding!
About: I've worked as a doggy daycare attendant, volunteered at animal shelters, shadowed a veterinarian, worked at a pet store (Pet Supplies Plus) and worked in small animal husbandry because my love for animals and pets is so strong. I have two cats of my own, along with a dog named Beandip, and I have regularly pet-sit my friend's dogs. I currently am taking care of my boyfriend’s dog with him here in Savannah, but I’ve been working in animal husbandry and care for the past two years. I am currently in the process of getting my Masters in Clinical Research, and any support will help! I try my best to understand where every dog is coming from in how it acts, and consider myself strong-minded. It's hard to make me frustrated, and I care more about a dogs well-being on walks than my own. I follow instructions entirely and communicate if any issues arise.
About: My husband and I have been loving and caring for dogs for over 20 years. Our fun and playful chocolate lab and fenced in yard, make for a fun time while you are away or at work. I’m currently working part-time and my husband has a flexible schedule, so caring for your dog around the clock is easy. I’m a nurse and take the safety of your family member seriously. I can give medications and take care of fragile dogs. We have a large fenced in backyard and a great neighborhood for walks. My dog is a very friendly 45lb chocolate lab. Car rides and walking trails too! Come play with us! Im already caring for a rambunctious dog of my own, so we would love to have more company to play with. Walking, hiking, and backyard ball throwing daily. I provide a regular daily routine for your pet, including feeding times, regular play and walking, and a safe and loving environment. I can also provide photos to you.
About: You can count on me rain, shine, or last minute changes. I’m careful, consistent, and follow every routine exactly how you like it. Your home and pet are cared for with total respect and safety. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I get off work at 1 PM, which gives me the whole afternoon and evening free for visits, walks, feedings, and quality time with your pet. I also have a 2 year old, so I’m used to structure, patience, and routines skills that translate perfectly into caring for animals. My schedule is steady and predictable, which means I can reliably show up at the same times every day. After 1 PM, my time is wide open for giving your fur baby the attention, love, and care they deserve. I follow your pet’s routine, give them one on one attention, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved whether that’s in your home, or referring to mine specifically !
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. And I have walked dogs for neighbors in the past. I love animals and love to help them in any kind of way! I am currently looking for a full time job so I have a lot of open availability. I’m very flexible and drive my own car. My apartment is very safe! I have to keep it baby proof for my cat anyway so I am very careful about that. I am very clean and always clean up after myself.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and had a large role in take care of family dogs all of my life, including feeding, walking, playing, cuddling, and loving! I’m an elementary school teacher looking to make some more money on the side. On weekdays I am free before 7:30am or after 3:45pm and I am free on weekends to check on your furry friend(s)! I think it is important to get to know each pet to understand their needs, wants, quirks, and personality. Every pet has their own likes, dislikes, and routines that they deserve to stick to. I love to get to know a dog and do what makes them the happiest!

Fernanda is professional, reliable, and has a friendly, easy going personality. My cat is very particular and adverse to change, and she handled her perfectly. Fernanda communicated with me daily, which I appreciate. I am new to the area and have had hassles finding good pet sitters in other cities I've lived. This overall experience was fast, easy, and I will definitely hire Fernanda again in the future.
Michelle is an absolutely wonderful person who loves animals. She was great with her visits. Pictures showed my dog was a happy camper with her around. He’s never been left behind at home. He usually boards at a local facility. They were booked for the holidays, so, I went this route. It was a good decision.

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.
