“Sierra has done so amazing with Oakley and is always extremely helpful and good! She responds quickly and can always help out especially when it’s last minute! Oakley is very energetic and can be a lot but she does such a well job walking and keeping him calm!”
“Excellent service as always!!! I book drop in service with Saffron any time I travel out of town! She’s the best! My dog can be high maintenance and she take the extra time to pay her some attention!”
“Brandy was amazing, punctual and easy to communicate with. I felt like she took great care of our pups Poe and Giddy, so that we were able to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely call on her for future pup sitting needs!”
“Excellent stay! Jabrae went above and beyond, even taking our dog out for a bike ride to tire him out! We are absolutely thrilled with our stay and plan on using Jabrae for every vacation in the future. We could not recommend her enough.”
“So pleased. Came back to find my dogs happier than ever to see me, but they were calm and relaxed. I will use Dawn again. What a good feeling to have a caring person watch your pets in their own home. Loved the picture updates!”
About: I’ve spent over 21 years caring for cats, 10 years raising dogs, and 5 years caring for bearded dragons through personal experience. Throughout the years, I’ve cared for animals at every life stage, from kittens and puppies to senior pets that require extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed feeding and medication schedules, and caring for cats with FIV. Every pet has a unique personality, and I’m experienced working with everything from calm, shy companions to energetic, playful pets. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you’re away! My regular availability is Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. I’m also available for weekend visits, overnight stays, and extended care when you’re traveling. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I strive to keep them on their normal schedule for meals, bathroom breaks, medications, exercise, and playtime. I’ll communicate with you throughout each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for! Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine are my highest priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, personality, and any special care instructions before every visit. I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, and mental stimulation while always respecting your pet’s comfort level. I’m also happy to take dogs on walks, transport pets to grooming appointments if requested, and provide regular updates with photos so you always know how they’re doing while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved until you return!
“Alyssa is SO amazing! Sends me great pics everyday. She took care of my two 18 year old cats everytime I went out of town - for over a year and a half - until I had to put them to sleep :-( . . . Now she's taking care of my two new babies (monster kittens) :-) . . . She's so flexible - and is able to keep taking care of them right now - while I'm iced out of South Carolina due to Winter Storm Fern! . . . She's the best!!!”
“Joshua was awesome on his drop-ins with our pups! They clearly enjoyed themselves from the pictures and we came home to happy pups and a (relatively) clean house! Joshua was even kind enough to bring in some packages for us. He is awesome! Highly recommend”
“Jennifer is amazing! This was our first time leaving our pup at home while on vacation, and Jennifer took incredible care of her. She went above and beyond all of my expectations, was so detailed with every visit, and truly made sure my pup was happy and comfortable. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Chelsea did a great job with our cats. Arrived home to a clean and tidy kitchen and litter boxes. She is a good communicator and we enjoyed the pictures she sent. We recommend her as a terrific sitter!”
“Sadie was awesome and took great care of my boys while I was away. Great communication and letting me know how they were doing. Would highly recommend and will definitely request her care again!”
“Lauren was absolutely incredible caring for Pluto! She treated him like her own, kept everything spotless, and made sure he stayed on his routine. I got daily updates and the sweetest photos—such a relief while I was away. When I came home, Pluto was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. I could tell he felt completely comfortable with her. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust with both my pup and my home. Can’t wait to book Lauren again!”
“Mary Kay was wonderful with my service dog Sunshine and his many “rules.” She was personable and kind, and he took to her instantly. I will definitely be having her back with Sunshine soon!”
“This was our first time using this app. I’m glad we did, we found someone that took great care of our dogs while we were away. It’s a plus that she lives close by too haha. Our dogs loved her and to have some company while we were gone. We greatly appreciate Nicole and will definitely recommend her and use her services again. Thank you again Nicole!”
“Alex took awesome care of our 3 kitty siblings. We felt very comfortable being away with Alex stopping in. She sent us daily pictures and played with the brothers. Even their super shy sister came out of hiding on day 3. Will definitely hire Alex again.”

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.

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.
