“James is great! Very good communication. Took care of my 3 kitties for the weekend and everything went really smoothly. I will definitely hire him again! Thank you James!”
About: I have owned 3 cats in my life and provided care for countless cats & dogs over the years. My kitty passed away at the beginning of the year and I am still mourning his loss but very happy to give love to your pet and get my furry friend fix! It’s important to me that animals still get good care when their owners are away and I work remotely so if staying at your home for a few hours at a time is necessary, I am able to! I work from home and my schedule is fairly flexible, so daily check ins are fairly easy for me to accommodate! If it’s suitable with you, I can work from your home too to spend more time with your pet! I treat every pet I meet with patience and care. I understand every cat or dog is different and giving them time and space is sometimes the best thing for them. I understand that I am stranger coming in to their home and I respect that. I treat them with love and care as if they were my own! My senior cat passed away at the beginning of this year and I desperately miss him, so having an opportunity to still spend time with cats and give them love is really important to me!
“This was the second time Barbara dropped in to watch my cat, and she did a great job! I really appreciate how communicative she is, and I always feel comfortable knowing she is there!”
“We are so thankful for Amy and the incredible care she provided for our cat, Barfi, while we were away for three weeks over the holidays. Leaving him for that long was a big decision, but Amy made us feel completely at ease from day one. She took the time to understand his routine, preferences, and personality, and it was clear throughout that she genuinely cared about his well-being. Amy sent us thoughtful updates and photos regularly, which truly brought us peace of mind — we could see that Barfi was relaxed, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. She was patient with his quirks, attentive to his needs, and made sure he stayed healthy, engaged, and happy while we were gone. Her communication was excellent, and we always felt confident that he was in safe, caring hands. When we returned home, Barfi was calm, content, and clearly very well cared for — which says everything about the level of love and commitment Amy brings to pet sitting. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and truly outstanding pet sitter.”
“Nicole is terrific! She's very patient with our cats, one who needs medicine and the other who is not great around new people, and she's wonderful with sending updates and responding to messages. I'd recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter in this area :)”
“Aaron is awesome! He put up with my blabbering about my dogs during our meet and greet, and was very polite and kind. He didn’t mind my dogs’ high energy and excitement. He took very cute pictures of them while he was looking after them, and he kept me updated on how they were doing. He’s an absolute delight; I can’t recommend him enough!”
About: I've walked dogs before, but I am not as experienced with dogs as I am with cats, however, I like dogs and hope to get more experience caring for them. I currently attend university, I'm also a student athlete, but I'd love to make some extra cash and I really love animals. I am studying animal behavior at school. For both cats and dogs, I will do whatever asked of you in terms of how often to feed them, take them out, medicate them, etc. However my schedule is very busy and I might not be able to go to your house multiple times a day.
About: I’m a patient, caring animal lover who wants your pet to feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’ll take the time to learn their personality, follow your care instructions closely, and keep you updated with photos. Whether they love playtime or prefer a little space, I’ll go at their pace. On workdays, I have an hour-long lunch break and usually finish before 5:30 p.m., leaving time for evening walks, feeding, and playtime. Depending on your location, I can also arrange lunchtime check-ins. We’ll confirm visit times beforehand to make sure they fit your pet’s routine. I’ll follow your care instructions closely and take time to learn your pet’s routine, needs, and personality. I’ll keep fresh water available, secure doors and gates, and use a leash on walks. In your home, I’ll respect your space, keep pet areas tidy, and send photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing.
About: I don't just 'pet sit'; I manage a household of six dogs, giving me a level of situational awareness that most sitters simply don't have Seasonal professional with an open winter schedule! Since I’m off-season, your pet(s) gets my full-time, undivided love & attention and 24/7 care all winter long. I provide 24/7 dedicated care, maintaining your pet's exact routine. Whether at my home or yours, I offer pack-level safety, medicine administration, and constant companionship.
About: Taking care of dogs and cats has been an important part of my life growing up and now as an adult, helping out my friends and family in their time of need…..and now I’m here to take care of your fur baby too! Because of my flexible schedule and local availability, I am able to come take care of your pet on a daily, weekly or as needed basis The safety and care of your fur baby is of utmost importance to me. Diet, exercise, comfort and playfulness with your pet are all things I will ensure are taken care of for your dog and/or cat. I myself have a 3 year old golden retriever and a 13 year old pittie/bulldog mix that I love with all my heart. I’ll show that same kindness, patience and love to your animals as well.
About: From 🦀 to 🐴 (but no seahorse experience, sorry) I adore all creatures great and small, “and your little dog too” as someone who didn’t much like to get wet once said! Experienced, sincere and trustworthy housesitter and petsitter but new to this app, I’ll add some of my favorite fur-tography inevitably but many are passed away and it makes me sad. My undivided attention, I’m doing this because I love to, not because I’m bored. It’s worthwhile to me to be of use. To the old fashioned manners born, to treat another’s home with respect and care, to leave any place indoors or out of doors in a golden-rule adjacent way.

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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
