“Shawnee was awesome! It’s comforting to know your furbaby is in capable hands, and I never doubted her abilities. Daily pictures provided a great connection with Precious while I was away and assured me I made the right choice in trusting Shawnee with my most treasured little companion.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I currently own 5 of my own. My dogs are my world. My vet experience make sure I can provide as much help as possible in time of need as well as love them like my own. I have taken care of bottle babies, special needs babies, I have helped in training several puppies on potty training, sitting, laying down, paw, recall, leash training, ect. My oldest dog is 18 so I am also experienced in taking care of seniors. I was trained to preform CPR, injections, blood draws, x rays, ekg, and to check RR, HR, and Pulse. I am currently continuing my education while being a stay at home mom to two teenage boys. I have the time and would love to just grow in experience. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats of my own, as well as goats, chickens, turkeys and a pig. I am a true animal lover at heart. I know the rules you have in place are there for a reason and I will follow your rules to the T. I know every house has rules that work for them and I am here to make sure they are followed.
About: I have years of personal experience caring for my own fur babies, as well as experience working in an emergency vet. I am comfortable handling pets who need a little extra TLC due to their health or personality, and nothing makes me happier than giving owners the assurance that their fur family is in good hands💜 I currently have two cats, Dobby and Chai, and I have experience with all ages of pets :) I can care for exotic pets as well (I personally have several invertebrates as well as a blue tongue skink and an African house snake!) I do work full time, so I am not currently able to provide 24/7 services. I currently work overnight (usually Monday and Thursday) but also work Saturday during the day almost every week as well. Please reach out to me with any questions regarding my schedule and how I can best accommodate your babies! I will follow any and all instructions left for me to the letter, as I would want someone to do the same for my pets.
About: I have been a veterinary technician for 3+ years and counting. We have had pets in our home since I can remember. I have grown up with the love and loyalty that our pets provide and is something that I cherish. I started pet sitting for coworkers and clients for about 2 years now. I love helping fellow pet owners with caring for their pets in a time of need. My favorite thing is gaining trust from pet owners and ensuring that owners have peace of mind when it comes to being away from their pets. Having the medical background that I do also helps to ensure that your senior babies are being taken care of properly. Pets are family. I am currently a full time veterinary technician and work all days (8am-6pm) except Tuesdays, every other Saturdays (only from 8am- 12pm), and Sundays. With my full time schedule, I make sure that a pets needs come first. I will only pet sit for pets that I can guarantee my utmost care. I house sit a lot as well so this is helpful with my full time job. I tend to pet sit close to my job so if I have to leave in the middle of the day to take a dog out, I definitely can. I make sure to follow all written or printed instructions to a T. I also make sure to stay in close contact with owners (not too close to ruin your vacation) to ensure that they are still at peace of mind throughout their time away. I also love to send photos of their pets while they’re gone so they’re not missing out on too much :)

About: I'm a true animal person, and my home proves it. Sir Rocco, my 5-year-old Lab, is my shadow, and our three cats, Nala, Nico and Goldie, keep things lively. My favorite part of caring for pets is getting to know their little personalities: the dog who has to sniff every mailbox, or the cat who pretends not to care but always ends up in your lap. A while back I took in a scared, semi-feral kitten. It took time, gentle hands, and a lot of patience before he let me hold him, and now he follows me around the house. That's how I approach every pet. I let them warm up at their own pace, and I never rush a nervous one. I've cared for pets at every stage of life. I love the silly, curious energy of puppies, and I'm happy to reinforce their potty routine and good habits while you're away. Older dogs have a special place in my heart too. I'm happy to slow down for their pace, keep them comfortable, and give them extra love. I'm also experienced giving medications, whether it's a pill tucked into a treat or a set schedule, so you can trust your pet won't miss a dose. When I'm with your pet, they get my full attention. That means real walks, belly rubs, fetch, cuddles, whatever makes them happy. I'll keep their routine just the way you like it and send you photos so you can see them enjoying their day. I want you to come home to a happy, well-loved pet and feel completely at ease while you're gone. My schedule is flexible, which means I can work around what you and your pet needs instead of the other way around. Whether you need regular walks during the week, drop-in visits while you're at work, or someone to stay with your pet while you travel, just send me a message and we'll find times that work. I always give your pet unhurried, focused time, and I'll do my best to help with last-minute requests too. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I treat your home like it's my own: I follow your house rules, keep things tidy, and always lock up and double-check doors and gates before I leave. On walks, your dog stays leashed and close, and I keep an eye out for other dogs, hot pavement, and anything they shouldn't eat. At our Meet & Greet, I'll get your vet's info and an emergency contact so I'm prepared for anything. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind always come first.
About: With years of hands on experience in animal care, I’ve had the privilege of volunteering at both wildlife sanctuaries and the SPCA, where I worked with a wide variety of animals in need. My background includes caring for pets of all ages from playful puppies and kittens to senior companions, as well as animals with medical conditions and special needs. I’m deeply committed to providing patient, compassionate, and attentive care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after, no matter their age or condition. I currently have a full time job as an elementary paraprofessional. I am there from 7:30am-3pm Monday-Friday. I am happy to provide pet care whenever you need it. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute help, I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your schedule. Your pet’s comfort and well being are my top priorities, and I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. I provide loving, reliable care for pets in the comfort of their own home or while out on walks. Whether it's feeding, playtime, administering medication, or just keeping them company, I follow your pet’s routine to help them feel safe and stress free. During walks, I make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need, always keeping their safety and happiness as my top priority.

About: At this time I will only be providing cat house sitting services as my experience with dogs is not as robust. Thank you for reading! I am a third year nursing student at FSC with a moderately flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I live on campus in Lakeland and have family all over Polk county. I grew up always having cats in the house! Taking care of your cats brings me so much joy and heals a bit of the homesickness I have for my own kitty.
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Savannah was amazing taking care of our cats. She has a setup where the cats have their own room to themselves and it is very cat-friendly. She truly knows and understands cat behaviors and quickly picked up on my cats' individual personalities. She kept me updated with daily photos and was very attentive to any questions I had. She was so nice and loved on my cats just like I do. I highly recommend her!”


About: I grew up caring for many kinds of animals and have always been a lover of nature and wildlife. With our family pets, we often fostered cats and dogs, as well as newborn kittens and puppies. I volunteered for the Animal Welfare League in Port Charlotte, FL, caring for cats and dogs of many varieties for several years. I currently have 4 cats of my own, all rescues which I love dearly! It would be an honor for you to trust me with the care of your pet, and I guarantee that I will love and care for them as if they were my own. I have experience with providing cats with basic, routine medical treatments such as pills, topicals, and liquid medications. Communication is important to me, and I will gladly provide you with any updates or answer any questions you may have while I'm looking after your home or pet. I'm currently seeking more self-employment opportunities, so my availability for daily or weekly sitting services is completely open! If you're looking for regular walks/visits, we can work together to schedule according to your pet's needs. You can rely on me to treat your home and pets with integrity and respect. Ensuring the comfort and safety of your animals is my top priority! I will listen to your unique needs and concerns, and provide attentive care.
“Tara did an excellent job checking in on our two small dogs while we were away for two days. She provided pictures (& some video) at each appointment which we appriate. We plan to use her services in the future.”

You can trust me to treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care

About: Although I don’t have professional experience as a pet sitter, I have always had cats and have also had dogs, so I’m very comfortable living with and caring for them. I have also cared for my friends’ dogs on several occasions. I’m a responsible, patient, and caring person. I believe every pet deserves attention, respect, and lots of love. I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they are with me. 🐾❤️ Trabajo de lunes a viernes hasta las 5:00 p. m., por lo que estoy disponible para cuidar mascotas después de ese horario. Los fines de semana también tengo disponibilidad por horas, tanto en la mañana como en la tarde. Cuando cuido una mascota en la casa de su dueño, me aseguro de seguir su rutina habitual y las indicaciones de su familia. Me gusta brindarles compañía, cariño y atención, además de asegurarme de que tengan comida y agua fresca. También puedo jugar con ellos, sacarlos a caminar si es necesario y mantener limpio y ordenado su espacio.
“Madison was amazing! We went out of town for a weekend getaway and were so anxious about leaving our cats behind. However, Madison eased all these worries away. Her communication was excellent and I could tell my cats were in caring hands. She was able to get my reserved cat to come out of his shell and even administered medication. I would recommend Madison and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”


“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of both of our dogs for three days in our home. She was attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring throughout the entire stay. She sent us pictures every day, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She made sure the dogs were fed, took them on walks, and gave them plenty of love, attention, and companionship. It was clear that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and truly appreciate the care she gave them. We would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter. We will definitely be booking her again!”

“Angel was the best at taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She was super responsible, kind, and left me really great updates about her. Highly recommend her for pet sitting!”

“Suhail was very sweet to Ziva, very atttentive. When watching on the furbo she spoke very kindly to Ziva & I appreciate her respecting my no shoes rule in the house because of Ziva's condition. She also went above and beyond washing her hands to prevent germs. As well as helped Ziva correct her standing position every time she would topple. Lots of cuddles. 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.
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.

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