About: I’ve been volunteering with animals since I was 8 years old, which gave me a strong foundation in responsibility, compassion, and hands-on animal care from a young age. Over the years, I’ve worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, learning how to approach each one with patience and understanding. Volunteering taught me how important consistency, gentle handling, and careful observation are when caring for pets. In addition to volunteering, I have pets of my own, so I understand firsthand the daily commitment that comes with being a pet owner. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animal, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, behavior changes, and overall comfort to make sure they feel safe and secure. I also worked as a kennel technician, where I cared for animals in a structured, professional environment. In this role, I gained experience with proper handling techniques, maintaining clean and sanitary spaces, monitoring for signs of stress or illness, and ensuring each animal’s needs were met efficiently and safely. Working in that setting strengthened my ability to stay calm, organized, and attentive, even in busy environments. Animal care has always been a consistent and meaningful part of my life. It’s not just something I do, it’s something I genuinely care about and take pride in. Pet care fits well into my routine. I work at a school during the day, which means I’m available after 2:30 PM on weekdays. I’m also fully available on weekends and have extended availability during school holidays, spring break, and summer break. Because of my schedule, I’m a great option for families needing care during holiday travel or extended trips. I can provide afternoon, evening, and overnight care depending on distance. I prioritize organization and time management to ensure every pet receives consistent, reliable attention and care. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my own home because I have pets of my own and limited space. I want to ensure that every animal in my care feels comfortable and safe, and I believe being realistic about space is important for everyone’s well-being. Instead, I focus on providing high-quality care in your home through drop-in visits and overnight stays. Many pets feel more relaxed in their familiar environment, and this allows me to maintain their routine while keeping their stress levels low. My goal is always to provide attentive, dependable care where your pet feels most secure.

“Once again, Katie has gone above and beyond my expectations for two drop-in visits with my 3 cats. She left two very detailed (and hilarious) report cards, along with some new toys for my babies! As usual, I am more than happy with the service and I am so grateful!!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have about 10 years of experience caring for them. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic puppies who love to play to older dogs who prefer a calm and relaxing day. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, bathing, potty breaks, and keeping up with your dog’s usual routine. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll always make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m available part-time with flexible hours throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule and provide walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m especially available for afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. When caring for pets in their home, I’ll follow their normal routine and any instructions you provide. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, food, exercise, attention, and a clean, safe environment. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“I highly recommend Darian to take care of your pets! I needed someone reliable, and on very short notice, to take care of my precious skittish cat for three weeks. Darian did a wonderful job tending to all my cat's needs, and she accomplished the amazing by quickly getting my suspicious, standoffish cat to allow her to pet her! Darian also went the extra mile of cleaning up the floor several times when my cat coughed up hairballs and had other tummy issues. Darian had not taken care of my pet before, but she stepped in like a pro and took care of her, and kept tabs on my house as well. As I said at first, I highly recommend Darian for your pet!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
