“Marina is very trustworthy and excellent with dogs, cats, and all sorts of animals. She took care of my ferret, my bearded dragon, cats, dog and watched over my fish! She really is an animal person and was the utmost professional, can't speak well enough of her services!”
“Angela was very communicative while checking on my cat and even went so far as to bring in packages when my mail hold didn't take! Lovely sitter and I'll definitely be using her again.”
“Marissa was a perfect Catsitter.. knew exactly how to behave with and look after our cat, gave her attention as well as looking after her food and litter needs. We loved getting the updates and photos which reassured us our cat was doing well. It’s great to have someone that really understands and cares for animals to look after your loved one while you’re away. Thank you!”
“Aubrey is an excellent sitter, she went above and beyond. She took amazing care of my cats, cleaning liter perfectly and giving them their wet food. She is a quick responder and really helped me feel my cats were super safe!”
About: My name is Alicia. I’ve been a teacher for 18 years. I have had pets for as long as I can remember. As far as “on my own” pets; I’ve owned five dogs, a cat, 4 gerbils, and 2 ferrets. I have experience in medication administration. I had a seizure baby as well so I’m familiar with them also. I have always been super close with my pets and they are allowed free roam of the house and love snuggling on the furniture. I wish I could provide in home services, but currently have a foster staying with me. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. I’m currently working flexible hours, so I have varying availability most days! When doing drop by visits to feed or give potty breaks, I make sure to spend a little extra time giving them attention. I’ve found animals can get their feelings hurt a bit when we rush in and rush out on a care visit. I want them to feel special and know that everything is good until your return. I love animals and am familiar with many different sizes/breeds. Just let me know what your specific pet needs/preferences are and I will make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and loved.
About: With over 30 years of pet care experience, I have dedicated my life to providing compassionate, reliable care for dogs, cats, and other animals. My love for animals began in childhood and has grown into a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I specialize in taking care of puppies, working with anxious pets, and building trust with animals of all temperaments. Known for my ability to connect with even the most timid or challenging pets, I strive to ensure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I offer flexible, reliable care tailored to your pet's individual needs. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, or simply spending quality time keeping them company, I'm happy to stop by as often as needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Your pets will be treated like family in my care. I will ensure they are fed, watered, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention. My priority is to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable, while providing you with peace of mind knowing they are receiving the same level of care I would give my own pets.
“Cranesha did very well with following specific instructions. I could tell my dog felt at ease with her. We rested well knowing our dog was well cared for. I hope to use her in the future. Thank you. 😊”
About: I’ve been around animals since I’ve been born. I’ve fostered puppies and helped rescues. It’s truly a passion of mine. I’m looking to help others with their fur babies so I don’t buy more of my own 🤪 I work evenings, so I’m home a good part of the day to give your pet plenty of love. Between me and my husband’s schedule, no pet will be alone for more than 6 hours ❤️ I have a fenced yard, and two dogs of my own who are up to date on shots. We feed twice a day, and walk often. I can promise your fur baby will be cared for as well as I would care for my own. ❤️
“Ashton was absolutely phenomenal!!! She took time with our dogs each time she came to visit, play, walk, feed etc. We will definitely be asking her to come dog sit for us on our future trips. We came home to 2 very happy pups. ? thank you so much, Ashton!”
“We really appreciated Abigail's help with taking care of our cat while we were gone over the holidays. She gave great updates every visit with pictures. We will definitely try to use her again when we need someone for our pets.”

I have just moved to Florida and I am available mostly anytime any day. If anything changes I will update my availability as soon as possible. I am capable of caring for your animal in the ways you need, whether it is feeding, walking, playing, or anything else you might want!
About: Hi! I’m Sydney. I have experience with animals of all sizes. From fat Labradors to my pet gecko... you name it! I am a dog trainer and have worked with several different personalities of dogs. If you just need me to stop by and clean you cats litter box, the dog poop in your yard, or maybe just to check up on your precious pooch, I’m happy to do so. I’m not afraid of a challenge either. Dog, cat, lizard, fish, etc. I have experience with most every common pet. Please feel free to ask me any questions. My availability is consistent but limited so please reach out to me for scheduling! Thank you and I look forward to helping you and your pet! My fur babies are given the best of care and you can expect the same for yours! All dogs are expected to be leashed at all times on walks.
About: I have had pets my whole life and have spent years house and pet sitting for friends and family. I am in the Army National Guard and have childcare experience, which has helped me become patient, reliable, and attentive. I am very loving and kind, and I naturally connect well with animals of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets. I work weekdays from 2 to 8, which allows me to be available for morning, midday, and overnight pet care. I have National Guard training one weekend each month, but I am available every other weekend to care for your pets. When caring for clients’ pets, I learn their routine and follow instructions closely to keep them comfortable and stress free. I provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and exercise based on their needs. I am happy to walk or jog with dogs and always create a safe, calm, and loving environment while you are away.
“Jessie has been absolutely amazing. My dogs are a bit of a handful and I was a little worried about introducing a new person into their routine but it hasn't been an issue at all. It has been such a relief having someone dependable and caring that can drop in on them and I don't have to be concerned about it! Thank you Jessie!”
“Paula and her daughter were great caretakers for my pups while i was away! They sent lots of photos and spent lots of time with my dogs. I would love to use them again in the future.”

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.
