About: I currently have two well loved pups, both on daily medication. I believe every pup deserves love, regardless of behavior or perceived aggression. I have experience with heartworm positive dogs as well as dogs who experience seizures. I am a current college student living at home with my family so I am available with lots of free time for your furry friend! I will occasionally have my partner over for meals or to just hang out if I am house sitting, depending on the distance and length of the booking. I believe that keeping an animal clean and safe is the best way to ensure health, as well as making sure the animal is comfortable with me. If I am watching someone who is shy, I am more than happy to give them their space (while ensuring they are safe).
“10/10 will be calling Audrey back if I have to leave town again! A true animal lover, so caring and thoughtful. She has absolutely eased my anxiety being away from my cat and leaving him alone for the first time since his sister died. I couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“Sara did a terrific job taking care of Scout and McCoy... they even came out of hiding to see her. I am delighted at how comfortable the cats were with her. I will use her again.”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals and have developed deep, hands-on experience with specialized pet care. I am incredibly comfortable administering medications and managing complex health routines. My background includes bottle-feeding newborn kittens, managing delicate medical schedules, and providing the strict, attentive care required for rescue dogs undergoing intense heartworm treatments. Our large, two-story home and fully fenced backyard offer a highly secure, adaptable space for your pets. Whether your dog or cat needs a lively vacation or meticulous medical supervision, they will be safe, comfortable, and expertly cared for here. As a stay at home mom, I am full time at home and dedicated to our daily household and animal routines. Because I am here throughout the day, your pet will receive constant supervision, regular bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. Pet care doesn't just fit into my schedul, it is a seamless part of my everyday life at home. Safety and structure are my top priorities. In our home, we maintain a highly secure environment featuring a large, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. We keep a well-managed household where guest pets are integrated smoothly alongside our own crate-trained dogs. Whether your pet requires strict crate time, routine medical or medication management, or just a calm, supervised space to relax, I ensure their specific safety and emotional needs are met 24/7.
“Emily made me feel comfortable leaving my cats with her! She was able to give my senior cat his medication without any problem. Emily is quick to respond, plays with them, takes pictures, and has a love for animals. I would definitely use her for future vacations! She was awesome!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing. She was caring, attentive and really keyed into the needs and personalities of both of my cats. I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver while we were away for 10 days. I knew they were in good hands and I never had a moment of worry with her.”
“Mary is the absolute best with our cats! She always finds the shy ones when they're hiding to make sure they're okay. This was our kitten's first time with a sitter, and we couldn't have left him with a better person.”
“Ally was super kind, patient and loving with my shy 13 year old cat! She always made his needs top priority. She showed up on Christmas day, New years and even added an extra day at the last minute. Highly recommended!”
“Time and time again we've been so blessed in every way to have Anna take care of our kitties, Mermaid and Medusa!!! She I truly part of our family -- I am at a loss for words to describe the countless ways to she consistently goes above and beyond for us..... Anna, the grace, kindness, thorough care, safety, and love you have given to all four of us has enriched all of our lives in the most beautiful ways!!! You have given Ronnie and I so much peace of mind when we go away from home, and I have been able to travel quite far from home and fly without worrying about a thing!!!! From every thoughtful personal touch to ensuring big ticket things are taken care of (like meds, food, attention to the babies, litter, AND SO MUCH MORE), anyone can rest easily knowing their babies are in your care. Mermaid and Medusa LOVE YOU SO FREAKING MUCH ANNA!!!!!!!! THANK YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK!!!!!!!”
“This is our first time using Rover. We wanted someone who was mature and responsible and Jeanne was a great fit. She was prompt and caring from the start. She sent messages and pictures every time and followed the details of our instructions. She was also thoughtful and thorough in how she cared for our kitty. We especially appreciate Jeanne giving time and space for our kitty to warm up to her and make sure she was comfortable with interaction. We recommend Jeane!”
“I told Stephanie that she can check on my cats any time as long as 1 was in the morning and 1 at night while I went away for the weekend. She actually followed the schedule I put to the tee and updated me the entire time I was gone. Thank you so much for caring for my 3 cats!”
About: As an animal lover, I’m passionate about helping families provide their fur babies with everything they need! I have extensive experience in animal care. During high school and college, I provided dog-sitting services for family and friends. I also worked at a boarding facility, caring for a variety of dogs and cats. Additionally, I spent over eight years working at an animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience with animal behavior, medical needs, and general care. I’ve attended multiple training sessions to enhance my knowledge, particularly in addressing behavioral challenges and specialized care. I’ve worked with animals of all temperaments, including dogs with stranger or dog-related reactivity, as well as those curious hounds who love to stop and sniff everything! I’m confident handling strong breeds, as well as senior pets that may need extra assistance. I’m also comfortable administering medications and working with dogs and cats with behavioral or medical issues. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I prioritize providing consistent, quality care to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and well taken care of. walks or playtime, I maintain their pet’s established routines as much as possible to minimize stress. I follow feeding schedules, exercise plans, and any specific instructions provided. I keep the space clean, respect the home, and ensure the pet feels secure in their familiar surroundings. Communication is also key—I keep clients updated with pictures or messages so they can feel at ease while I care for their beloved pet.
“Lauren is fantastic! She is so professional, sweet with Mack and a fabulous communicator! We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend!!”

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.

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 .

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 .
