About: Hi! I have over ten years of experience taking care of dogs and cats from just one day old to many many years old. I love all animals but I am especially well-versed with dogs. I even delivered a litter of puppies once! I currently am a student online at UCLA. I have a pretty flexible schedule so I am able to fit my schoolwork around your needs! I am happy to care for your pet/ your home as much or as little as you would prefer. I am very flexible, it just depends on your preferences!
“They were so good with Layla. They took care of all her needs, and then some! I got to see daily pictures which let me know that she was in good hands. I can't say enough about how much I appreciated the care that was given.”
About: I’ve always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m experienced with keeping pets on their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is to feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I’m happy to care for pets before and after work and on weekends. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of each pet and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m dependable and will always communicate clearly about my availability so you know your pet is getting the care they need. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I provide a clean, comfortable environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I also understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel right at home. When caring for a pet in their home, I’m respectful of their space and will follow their usual routine and your instructions closely.
“Monica did a great job and made me deal super secure while I was away from my babies I truly dread taking vacation just because I hate to leave them. She stayed in touch with me ever step of the way and sent me fun pics to show me how much fun they were having. The only bad news is now my kitty thinks I am going to play all these fun games- lol. Thank you, Monica!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for many years and currently care for my own dogs, bird, and aquariums every day. Friends and family have trusted me to help care for their pets while they’re away. My background in healthcare has taught me to be dependable, detail-oriented, and calm in unexpected situations. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give my own.

I understand how important consistency is for pets and will follow your instructions and routines to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I know every pet is different because I’ve experienced that with my own dogs. One of my dogs has epilepsy and takes medication on a strict schedule, so I understand how important routines, careful observation, and clear communication are. I have a fenced backyard and will follow your pet’s feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions exactly as you ask. Whether your pet is young, senior, or has special needs, I’ll treat them with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I give my own pets.

“Shelby is one of the most kindest caregivers I have ever met. She is super communicative and always eases my mind when I worry. I will most definitely book with her again if I ever need. She is compassionate and kind for all furry friends. Shelby will always be my first pick!! She should be yours too. Thank you from the dearest of my heart for taking such sweet care of my minmin.”
“Such a nice couple! They are prompt and very reliable. I was completely comfortable leaving my cat with them. They took on the extra job of having to give him insulin. They spent time with my cat and brushed and played with him. Not to mention all the must do’s my cat needed. Will use them again and highly recommend them! ❤️”

About: I've had pets my whole life, and that is not limited to just cats and dogs. A guinea pig I was gifted as a young child ignited my love and passion for living creatures. Since then I've loved animals of all shapes and sizes. I’ve worked at a pet store as their go-to animal care woman. I’ve cared for small mammals and reptiles and LOTS of fish. I've always, always had cats and dogs at home, including now. I've worked for other dog walking and daycare companies, and I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from an 80-pound dane mix to a 15-pound French bulldog. I haven't met an animal yet that I didn't learn to love. I'm not a squeamish person, so whatever you need me to do for your pet, I will do my absolute best. Thank you for considering me to take care of your best friend - whatever form they may take. Although I’d love to be able to do this full time, I do have to work around my day job. That leaves me available Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday most weeks. I will update my schedule if I get a day off. I will always be fully alert to your pets needs. Food, water, potty, bath. You name it, I can do it. I have years of experience with all types of animals under my belt.
“Alyssa was very responsive and took great care of our elderly pet mini lop rabbit that is mostly blind. It was her first experience with pet rabbits but she had great instincts, reads body language well and knew when he was unsure about her initially and when he wanted to interact as he got more comfortable.”

“Stephanie did an excellent job of taking care of my cat while I went on vacation. She sent updates and pictures to me while I was gone. She completely won over my cat. I highly recommend Stephanie and will definitely book her again for my next trip.”
“Ashley did a great job of caring for our cat. This was the longest time we'd left him and it was so reassuring to get the updates and pictures Ashley sent. He is a really shy cat, but sensing her caring nature, warmed up to Ashley right away. We knew he was getting great care while we were away. Definitely going to be booking again !!”
About: I have lived decades with animals in my life. Dogs, Cats, Birds, Rodents, Fish and more. With the exception of a few years deployed on a Navy Sub I have always lived with animals. As I approach retirement from the Sheriff's 911 center I plan to travel internationally and need to experiment with ways to get my dog fix when back in the USA. So the next 2 yrs I will try adding this (dog sitting) into my very flexible work schedule and see if it will become part of Carter 2.0 I can say with confidence I can't handle most anything that arises. Recently retired from the Sheriff's 911 center. I have a very flexible schedule. I can adjust as needed to fit the needs of the stay. I am respectful and caring.

About: My family has had dogs, cats and fish my whole life. I often watch them when my parents are out of town and I have dog and cat sat for family & friends for years. I have helped a friends family with their cattle and pigs, but am not as experienced with livestock outside chickens. I’m currently available 7 days/wk I work as a server in my pleasant so whoever I’m staying with ideally should be able to go 6-8hrs between potty breaks! If I have 2 weeks or more advanced notice I can make arrangements to be able to check in more frequently. o o o o o o o o o o I love interacting with the pets and getting to see them get more comfortable with me.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Antioch
We have used Kelli’s services twice so far and she has been excellent! Kelli took the time to meet with my wife before her first time watching our two cats. It helped us to become comfortable before we even left for our trip. shetook great care of our cats, and judging by the pictures Kelly sent us they really enjoy her visits. Her communications are great. We get new pictures and a written update each day that she watches them. She’s very kind and thoughtful and even watered some grouping flowers for us without us even asking. I highly recommend Kelly for anyone who wants great care for their pets while they are away. Bob W.
I always feel very comfortable leaving Layla in Kelli's care while I travel out of state. She shows her so much love and plays with her. It's obvious she takes great pride in caring for animals. I really appreciate all the daily pictures and updates. I'll definitely be using her again and again.

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 .

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 .
