“We met with Michelle before she cared for our dogs. She asked questions that showed she would be attentive to all of the important things and we felt comfortable leaving our girls in her care. Good communication and all went well with an extended drop in. We would definitely use Michelle again.”
“Mariah sent lots of photos and videos throughout her visits to help put the mind at-ease. Highly recommend her and will definitely be in contact with her again if needed!”
“I trust my pets with Rachel 100%. She checked in 3x per day for 10 days, sent pictures and updates each visit. She went above and beyond when the AC broke adjusting her schedule to be available for the AC tech. She ensured our pets had cool water each visit, turned on ceiling fans and even brought her own floor fan. She is reliable, caring and friendly. She is trustworthy and I highly recommend, Rachel for petsitting!”
About: Part time stay at home mom with a lot of love to give! Able to care for your dogs as if they were my own. Walks are only done during the early morning and evening hours, to avoid the heat of the day. I feed according to the instructions provided by the owners to keep up the dogs routines. I can provide lots of pets, cuddles, walks, engagement with toys, and can do misc things like comb their fur out. I have a fenced yard and my cats are indoor. We do let them go outside supervised on occasion. I own a crate just in case I ever needed one but I don't personally crate my pets. Wouldn't mind doing it if that is what's being asked of me. I would honestly just do whatever is being requested by the owners as to not break any routines or habits the dog(s) may have.
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs and personalities, including animals who require daily medications. I’m trained to volunteer and foster through Orange County Animal Services, where I’ve gained experience caring for animals who need extra patience, structure, and compassion. I've handled (and loved) dogs from many different backgrounds. I’ve fostered bottle-baby kittens and helped socialize feral cats, giving me experience working with animals who need specialized or gentle care. I also trained my own dog from puppyhood through adulthood and cared for him into his senior years. This gave me firsthand experience with everything from basic training and socialization to the patience and extra care that older dogs may need. I’ve also trained a service dog in multiple tasks and basic obedience using consistent, positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, including large breeds such as Mastiffs and Great Danes. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a shy rescue, a senior companion, or simply needs some extra attention, I’m committed to providing safe, loving, and dependable care. I am currently a student and work part-time. I am only in class two nights a week. This leaves me with a very flexible schedule that works around your pet! I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and will make sure your pet gets the time, exercise, companionship, and routine they need. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both your needs and mine. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I prioritize safety, supervision, and consistency. I’m comfortable with pets who need medications, extra patience, or a little time to warm up. I also understand the importance of following feeding instructions, keeping doors and gates secure, and maintaining a clean, calm environment. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities.
“Clara was wonderful! I met her beforehand to show the feeding for my cat (diff wet foods mixed together). It was a lot more work than just a single can and she was great about it! I told her she can just put the dirty dishes and empty cans in the sink. But she went out of her way to wash the dishes and dispose of the cans. I also have a weird litter system (pine pellets so it doesn’t clump) but she was great about cleaning it out and disposing of it properly. My cat was a rescue that gets really scared and lonely. But he did warm up to her and was so affectionate! It made me feel so relieved that he was well taken care of. He has separation anxiety and she made me feel at ease. Really appreciate everything she did!!”
“Audrey was amazing in every way! I didn’t worry about my pups not once. She played with them and hung out with them, that means so much to me. We will most definitely be using Audrey again.”
“Cindy is all around the BEST We are very greatful we found her. Communicated the whole time and my dog was so relaxed and happy everyday. In fact, I heard him cry on our cameras the one time she left. Beautiful person and I highly recommend!”
“Jin was great with our two dogs! She carried our elderly dog outside because of our two steps and she gave both of them their enrichment activities mid day to work their brains. She spent time cuddling with them too. ❤️❤️ one of our dogs is sensitive to new people and she is patient and slow with him and he loves her!”
“Amanda was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I used the drop-in visits while I was out of town. She made the whole experience so easy and stress-free! She came by to feed my three dogs, let them out, and spend some time with them. I loved getting her updates — she left sweet and fun notes after the visits and took lots of pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. You can tell she really cares about the animals she looks after. I’ll definitely be booking with Amanda again next time I travel!”
“Cheyenne is attentive, flexible and took great care of our boys. She even adjusted her schedule when a medical issue came up for one of our dogs during her visit. 12/10 recommend her!!!”
About: My experience with pet sitting includes two lovely Labrador, one clingy Golden Retriever, one energetic Pit-bull mix and one sleepy frenchie. Each one thought me how unique each pet can be and showed how much their owners loved each and every pet. Regarding experience with specific services I did give oral medication to the frenchie and carpooling the two Labradors. So if your pet needs any specific assistance or services please let me know and I will try to accommodate as best as possible. Since I am College Student, my availability is limited to Friday to Sunday. My services will be House sitting with your pet, dog walks, and even playtime if needed. I am open to pet specific requests and will try to accommodate as best as possible. Regarding potential weekday availability please reach out personally to me and I will try to accommodate as best as possible. Unfortunately due to my apartment’s no pet policy I can not pet sit from my own home. I do not mind having to travel to full-fill client needs as I do have a vehicle. If your pet has any unique needs I will be happy to meet them. I will try to keep your pet from and potentially precarious situations and care for them as they were my own.
“Kayla is great! She did a great job walking my three dogs. Sent lots of pics and a great report. Dogs are happy and relaxing after their walk. Will definitely use her again :)”
“She was awesome and was able to help with last minute timing. She was in constant communication and sending me pictures and updates. Really sweet and responds back quickly! I had a few requests of stuff to do to leave my dog comfy and she was able to assist. She was great definitely re-booking. Thank you Dayanne!”
“Bailey always takes great care of my pup. She is always on-time and stays the full length of her drop-in visit. She leaves great Rover cards so I am able to see what they were up to during her visit. I appreciate how well she communicates and how consistent of a sitter she has been for me. She is very good with big dogs. I highly recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Alafaya
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.
Rachel was fantastic with my cats. She was also patient with my one cat that needs daily meds and can be a handful. It was so great to know I had someone responsible to take care of my fur kids while on vacation. She was very communicative and sent pics daily. Wish I could give her more than 5 stars! Thank you Rachel!!!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alafaya. On Rover:

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.
