“Christy was wonderful! My cat Bean is a very shy girl, but Christy was attentive to her needs, always quick to respond to messages, and her care shone through those messages. I will absolutely reach out to her again if I am needing a sitter.”
About: I have lots of experience with pet and house sitting. Small and large dogs, and cats of all ages. I've taken care of geriatric animals with special dietary and medication requirements, including injections. I respect all animals and take special care to take care of animals the way you want them to be cared for. I graduated in May with my PhD from Virginia Tech, and moved back home to Johnson City. I am currently looking for a full-time position, so I have very open availability. I have experience working with animals of all types, respecting the routines and schedules that animals are used to. I follow any rules or specific requests and endeavor to be respectful of the home.
About: I have been exposed to animals for the entirety of my life, my family has always fostered cats and has had dogs in the house. I have handled dogs of all sizes and all energy levels, from puppy to seniors and herding dogs to couch-potatos. I’m currently available for part-time drop ins, or overnight weekend stays. I am a college student so I have availability sporadically throughout the day, early morning, or late night. I am open to any setup to care for pets, and will diligently follow any instructions given for the specific animal. I am a college student so I am only available to go to clients homes rather than bring animals to me.
About: I have grown up around and taken care of animals my whole life! Through having cats and dogs of my own, as well as helping friend’s and family with pet care, I am confident that I can provide excellent care to your pets! I am a true animal lover at heart, and would love the chance to get to know your fur babies I am currently a graduate student so I have a flexible schedule to care for your animals. I can work around your schedule, and am available 7 days a week. I value your comfortability as well as your pets! I know how important pets are, and placing their care in someone else’s hands can be a big decision. I want to make sure you are satisfied with my care so that your animals can feel as comfortable as possible. I am great at following instructions and want to honor your autonomy in the process of your pets care.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for.

My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Annabell did a great job with our pets! Along with our 2 cats, we also have a couple exotics. I needed her to mist my gecko enclosure pretty much every visit and she did it amazingly! I was super impressed that she even checked to make sure the lid was secured properly, which most sitters don't know to check for. We'll definitely be scheduling her again! Thanks Annabell!”
“Ashlee was amazing with our babies! She provided pictures, had great communication, and took really great care of our animals. Truly appreciated the detailed updates we received during the visits. ❤️”

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 .
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 .
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 , 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.
