About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve had pets my entire life and currently have a senior dog, so I’m comfortable providing the extra patience, attention, and care that older pets need. I’ve also cared for kittens multiple times and understand how much supervision and gentle care they require. I’ve experienced caring for a dog with cancer as well, so I’m comfortable being attentive to pets with illnesses or special needs. I treat every pet like my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have classes 12-3pm tuesdays and thursdays at UCF! I am in a sorority so I do have events or similar obligations. I am available monday, wed, saturday and sunday DAYS! I prioritize safety, comfort, and keeping pets on their normal routine. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention and supervision. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific routines. I always make sure doors and gates are secure and that pets are never left in an unsafe situation. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while their owner is away.

“Dylan was so amazing with my cats! He kept such good care of them and went above and beyond! My babies warmed right up to Dylan and they had so much fun playing with him. Will most definitely rebook!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for about 3 years and have experience with puppies, large dogs, cats, and kittens. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and stimulation. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always make sure to follow their normal schedule and make them feel as comfortable as possible while their owner is away. I genuinely love animals and enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going on a long walk, playing with an energetic puppy, or keeping a cat company at home. I’m reliable, responsible, and usually pretty flexible with scheduling and last-minute needs. Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine since my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m able to work around different feeding schedules, drop-in times, walks, and longer stays depending on what your pet needs. I’m also usually available throughout the week and on weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests when I can. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to follow their normal routine and any instructions left for me. I keep doors and gates secure, make sure food and water are taken care of, and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. I’m very respectful of my clients’ homes and always make sure everything is left clean and exactly how I found it. I also keep owners updated so they can feel comfortable knowing their pet is safe and being well cared for while they’re away.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have had the joy of raising my own dogs from puppies for the past 7+ years and my cats from kittens for 4+ years! Caring for them has taught me how important patience, attention, and lots of love are. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! ❤️ I’m currently taking my classes online, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m able to dedicate lots of time to feeding, playing with, checking in on, and caring for your pets. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m careful with doors, feeding schedules, litter boxes, and playtime, and I always respect each pet’s personality, boundaries, and your home.
About: I love dogs more than I love actual people. About 3 years ago I started working at a doggy daycare and I had the best experience. Apart from that I've had dogs since I was born. I know how to give professional baths and some types of haircuts. I used to train dogs but I haven't had much experience. I take care of my own pets all day. When I move I won't have a job so if I need to stay with your dog all day I can accommodate that I have a lot of experience handling all types of dogs including reactive. So I can change the way I work to give your dog what they need
“Priscila took great care of our kitties while we were away for Thanksgiving. She was communicative and prompt and send us pics of our fur babies while we were gone! Would rebook her to care for them again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a little over two years due to my work with my communities humane society. My work ranged from walking and overall handling of dogs to providing accommodations based on any special needs a dog had. I currently am a student at UCF however my schedule is extremely flexible, whether I’m need for daily checkups or watching an animal full time for the day, I have ample room to discuss availability. My approach to animal care comes from my personal experiences raising animals of my own, being calm and accepting towards any special circumstances an animal may have as well as providing ample attention to the animal so they not only feel safe but cared for within their environment.
About: I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience both as a dog trainer and in boarding. Over the years, I've worked with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring more specialized care. My background in dog training allows me to work with your dog on behavioral issues or reinforce good habits while they're under my care. Additionally, my experience in boarding means I'm accustomed to managing multiple pets at once and ensuring each gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s administering medications, keeping them on a consistent schedule, or providing enrichment activities, I always ensure that pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With a deep understanding of canine behavior and a compassionate approach, I can offer more than just basic pet-sitting—I can be an extension of your dog’s family and contribute to their well-being, whether they're staying with me for a day or an extended period. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, and my experience allows me to seamlessly incorporate it into my schedule. As a dog trainer, I’m accustomed to spending time with dogs throughout the day, whether it’s for training sessions, walks, or general care. I prioritize regular exercise and mental stimulation for pets, which fits well with my structured daily plan. In addition to my training work, I also have experience with boarding, which means I’m used to managing the care of multiple dogs at once. I make sure to set aside specific times each day for feeding, walks, and attention, while also balancing the other tasks of my day. Whether I’m working with puppies, senior dogs, or dogs in need of more specialized care, I structure my routine to ensure each pet gets the individual care and attention they deserve. This flexible yet organized routine allows me to manage pet care efficiently, while maintaining a balanced schedule. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are always my top priorities when caring for pets in a client’s home. I respect the pet’s routine and environment, ensuring that everything stays consistent with what they’re used to. I stick to their regular feeding, walking, and play schedules, while also incorporating any necessary training or enrichment activities. For pets that need additional care—like senior dogs or those with anxiety—I create a calm, structured environment to help them feel comfortable. I also make sure the home is safe and secure, checking for any potential hazards like open windows, toxic plants, or unsecured doors. Trust is key, and I keep an open line of communication with pet owners, offering updates and photos so they feel reassured their pets are in good hands. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and familiar environment where pets feel cared for, relaxed, and happy.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Alafaya
We cannot recommend Isabella highly enough! She took exceptional care of our two kitties for 9 days while we were away on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Isabella visited twice a day, was always punctual, and went above and beyond to make sure our babies were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She fed them, gave them lots of love, cuddles, and attention, brushed them, cleaned their litter boxes, and made sure they had fresh water every day. One of the things we appreciated most was that she sent us photos and videos every single day, allowing us to see our fur babies and giving us peace of mind while we were away. We absolutely loved and appreciated this. It was so reassuring to see our kitties doing well and receiving so much affection while we were away. On top of everything else, she also brought in our mail, took out the trash, and even swept the floors so we could return to a clean and welcoming home. Her thoughtfulness, reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals truly made all the difference. It’s such a blessing to find someone you can completely trust with your beloved pets and your home. We are incredibly grateful to Isabella for her outstanding care and all the extra little touches that made such a difference. We will absolutely be booking her again! ❤️🐾
Mariah really went above and beyond taking care of our two cats Cal and Mei, who have to be fed on a special diet and schedule. She was very responsive, sent pictures, and kept our babies happy and cared for during our 2 week trip. 🙂 She even helped a bird trapped in our pool screen, and made sure the garbage was taken out, and the kitchen and litter left clean. We were very pleased with Mariah’s professionalism and would book her again!
Rachel was great, she went above and beyond to make sure our cats were taken care of. She followed all of our instructions and suggestions perfectly, and even helped with other things like bringing in mail and packages. We got photo updates every day, and the cats loved her. We will absolutely be booking with her again.
Seriously the best sitter ever!! This is our first time leaving our kitty with a sitter we were so nervous. Yicheng was super amazing understanding and kind to our baby. Our kitty loves playing with him so much. We really recommend him as a sitter and we will be using him 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 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.
