About: Catering to you and your pets routines, to fit your lifestyle and preferences! I’ll always ensure the safety, comfort, and care of your pet is just as crucial as my own fur babies. No quirk or strange habit of your pet is anything new to me. My own brown tabby is quite particular about how she likes to be pet, or even how the wet food is prepared. I love to learn what makes each pet their own being!! I’m a forward thinker and problem solver by nature. No situation could be met with more attention to detail or precision. I’m always ready to make a new furry friend! I currently attend online university for an Alternative Medicine degree which allows me the flexibility needed for any schedule. What you say goes, and if you need me I’m there! Every pet has their own set of needs and specific requirements when feeding, cleaning up the litter box, receiving any treats or medicine, and even during playtime! You will rest assured knowing your pet is in patient, kind, safe hands!
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a part of my everyday routine. I currently have a dog named Scout and a cat named Twig, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I love getting to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and independent, or just looking for extra attention and cuddles. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I work part-time, allowing me flexibility for dog walks and pet drop-in visits throughout the week. Please contact me for availability, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. As a pet owner, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. During visits, I prioritize safety, consistency, and attention to detail. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, monitor your pet’s well-being, ensure they have fresh food and water and a clean environment, and provide updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.

About: I have always had dogs since I was a baby. I currently have 2 of my own, a 9 year old beagle and a 3 year old doberman who I rescued. I trained my beagle by myself and am doing the same with my doberman. I have worked among amazing dog trainers, pet care workers, and I am shift lead at a boarding facility.

During my break at work I may be able to stop by (distance permitting) and also let your pet out. Boarding- I have a fenced in yard where potty breaks are whenever needed when I am home. When not home dogs will be kenneled (if you want) and/or put up in my dog room where camera access is available. When working I am able to let them out during my work break around 12pm. I feed my 2 dogs twice a day (AM & PM) House sitting- Your home my environment flexes towards your pet and what it is comfortable with! I do normally work 8-3 M, T, TH, F, and Saturdays but depending on distance I might be able to let your pets out or care for them during my lunch break on those days.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Allenton
Tiffiny is such a kind person as well as her daughter. You can tell she loves animals and will care for your babies as she would care for her own. Most importantly she uses the Rover app and communicates effectively leaving notes and confirmation with every visit. She validates that your animals are well, eating drinking and in our case using the litter box appropriately. She went above and beyond and vacuumed around their litter box. Thank you so much for caring for our kitties. Love the Gunters and especially from Mac, Cheeto, and Biscuit!

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.
