About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and in college I looked after my roommates' and friends dogs of all sizes and temperaments ranging from pomeranians to german shepherds. I've also housesat pets for extended periods of time. I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample time to look after and entertain your pets! I'm available on weekdays to housesit from 8am to 6pm! On the weekends, I can walk your pets or even take them out for a couple of hours weather permitting. I will ensure that your pet is taken care of just like how you would care for them! I am very proactive regarding communication, both positive and negative, and I make sure to ask clarifying questions if I have any doubts to ensure I understand the pet's needs and requirements! I live in the suburbs so my environment is very quiet, however I do not have a fenced backyard so I would prefer not to host any pets unless they are mostly indoor animals.
About: I have always loved animals. They are Gods proof of his love for us. Your beautiful fur baby will be in safe hands with me. I am a stay at home mom. My husband and I have five children. Two of them have graduated High School, two are in Elementary School and the last one just turned three. I am enrolled in online school pursuing my masters degree in Adolescent therapy/counseling. My schedule is very flexible especially during the day. I love and have lived by the Cesar Milan method of exercise, discipline, affection when training our family dogs. I love dogs very much but cannot allow being pushed around by them either. Boundaries are very important.
“Clara is amazing and a true cat whisperer. She took such good care of our fur babies while we were away and was able to earn their trust quickly. I highly recommend booking her to look after your furry friends while you're away - we will definitely book her again.”
“Jess was amazing!!! We were so nervous about leaving the cats for a few days but we were actually able to enjoy our vacation because of her ?? She sent us plenty of pictures and videos the whole time and we could really tell that the cats bonded with her ? Wish I could give more than 5 stars!”
“Sara is an excellent pet sitter! My cat isn’t always the warmest with new people and she was able to win her over like it was the easiest thing in the world. She follows any special instructions you need for your pet and takes the time to get to know them. I have already booked Sara for my next out of town trip. You will be happy you booked with her!”
About: Growing up I was the neighborhood pet care specialist. Whether drop-in visits, play times, and walks. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure each walk is safe, fun, and tailored to their energy level and personality. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer adventure, I’ll provide plenty of care, attention, and exercise while keeping you updated with photos and messages every step of the way. I am currently looking for a job as we moved here for my wife’s job so I am free all day. I am available for any service between 7am-6pm. My job is to treat your pet like my own and allow your pet to feel as safe as it does with you. You tell me what makes your pet happiest and I’ll make sure your pet feels loved and cared for.
About: I have been working at an animal hospital for almost two years now taking care of dogs and cats! I also pet sit for friends whenever they are out of town and have a pup of my own :). I love what I do and making sure that pets feel loved and taken care of while mom and dad are away. I am available: Monday's after 12 PM Wednesdays after 12 PM Thursdays after 4 PM Friday's all day! Saturday all day! Sunday's after 1 PM I like to find out first what the pets quirks or special accommodations are (for ex. food aggression, crating, shyness). This will guide me on how I respond and take care of your pet! Depending on personality, I give our dogs and cats plenty of love and attention.
“Zach has been caring for our cat several times now, and is by far our favorite sitter for our girl. He is kind and caring, which can really be seen in his thoughtful rover report cards. This is the kind of person you want caring for your pets, not just someone checking a box to put food down and be out the door.”
“Sabrina is an absolute angel- our english bulldog was so taken care of while we were gone. We are so thankful to have found her and have someone with such a kind heart to love on our lazy guy!”
“Kaliyah was absolutely great with our boys!! She dropped in at the allotted time for feedings etc and always sent us some pics of the ones that would come out and play. She went above and beyond also when there was an issue with the lock code not working. I can’t say enough about Kaliyah and her service. I would definitely book Kaliyah again if we’re going out of town again”
“Sarah watched my dog for an entire week checking in on him morning and evening and sent photos and updates during her check ins. She was amazing and took such great care of my buddy!”
“Samantha was an amazing sitter for my two cats. She texted daily updates, kept them in their own bedroom away from any other pets, slowly introduced everyone to each other and gave them the option to feel safe enough to roam around her entire house. She responds very quickly and is a great communicator. She was also great at handling behavioral issues and anxiety that my cats had, I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve got so many years of pet care experience ranging from dog and cat daycares to shelters and even veterinary offices, I love meeting a new furry friend everyday and learning a new personality along with them Pet care is something that can be done daily for me whether that’s just a quick walk or a bath, or maybe you would like your furry companion to just have some fun with a friend for a bit. All are so important to our babies mental and physical health In my home my baby is treated as one of the family, she has multiple bed throughout the house for when she wants to chill and relax whenever she may please. I occasionally take her to dog parks but not too much since she’s a senior pup but she is such a queen
“Olena was amazing! She went above and beyond while watching my cats. She made sure they were fed and cared for, she also spent quality time with them and gave them lots of love. I really appreciated the photo updates she sent while I was away, it gave me peace of mind knowing they were happy and in good hands. She also left the house super clean, made sure the litter box and bowls were spotless, and just clearly cared. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Allen
This is our third time booking Alexis to watch our cats while we're away. She's incredibly easy to work with and our cats love her. She takes such good care of them, spends lots of time with them, and always sends us lots of pictures. I feel much better about the concept of leaving them knowing that she's going to be the one checking in on them.
Rue took such wonderful care of our dog Cinnamon and cat Cookie while we were away! This was our first time using a drop in pet sitter, and we’re so grateful for her help. It meant so much knowing our babies were being cared for while we enjoyed time with our kids. Thank you, Rue, for giving us peace of mind! We’d happily book with her again. 💕
Pamela was absolutely amazing! From our initial meet and greet, we immediately felt comfortable knowing our three cats would be in great hands. She took such wonderful care of them and truly went above and beyond—not only caring for our cats, but also bringing in our mail and even taking care of our trash cans on trash day. This was our first time using Rover, and Pamela made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. It gave us such peace of mind while we were away knowing our cats and home were being so well cared for. We will absolutely be using her again and couldn’t recommend her enough!
Our cats are very shy with strangers but Garrett & Jessia understood and did not force an interaction. They waited until our cats were ready for attention and checked in on them daily while we were on vacation. They are the first pet sitters we have ever had and we will definitely be booking again!
Natasha takes great care of my dog and cat! My dog Barry is starting to really take to her, and he gets excited when she comes over! Ari, our cat, also seems very intrigued and happy to see Natasha on each visit. I will continue to use Natasha’s pet sitting for sure!!!

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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
