About: Hi! I’m Kaelyn, a dependable and caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or a slower pace, I’ll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m committed to being punctual, communicative, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, so I’ll always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and making every walk a safe, fun, and positive experience! As a full time college student with two jobs, a professional photography business, and a commitment to book publishing, my time is sparse but well managed. My schedule leaves me available for same day booking and or plans weeks out. Regardless of the duration I will ensure my time with your pet is priority. I will always arrive on time ready to provide a wonderful experience. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. During walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your instructions carefully, provide fresh water, monitor your pet for any signs of stress or illness, and ensure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and attention. I communicate regularly with pet parents by sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I also respect your home by keeping it clean, securing doors and gates, and treating your property with the same care I would my own. At this time, I do not offer boarding or daycare in my home. My services focus on dog walking and drop-in visits, allowing your pet to stay comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving dependable, compassionate care.

About: I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs, I also have experience with rodents such as rabbits, mice, rats, and hamsters. I also am fine taking care of reptiles if needed. I'm available almost everyday, so I have plenty of time to stay at your house and watch your animals. I can even stay the night if needed. I feed them breakfast and dinner everyday, clean litter boxes once or twice a day depending on how many cats, and I could walk the dogs two or three times a day.

About: Hello my name is Shondra and I absolutely love dogs. I am retired so your pup will not be left alone. I have always had dogs my whole life. I have trained bird dogs (German short haired pointer) to hunt which I no longer do but I would love to take care of your pup as if it were my own. I walk my pup everyday so if your pup likes walks he or she can go with us. My house is clean so your pup will not be eating anything that will hurt him or her. I will send you pictures everyday of our activities. I have saved my dog Kiddy (who has now passed away at 19yrs old) from near death when she was 16yrs old. She had an infected tooth which got into her blood and caused her to almost die. the doctor gave her antibiotics but she wasn't eating or drinking for days. I put in a blender chicken and pedialyte, I then poured it into a feeding syringe and carefully put it in her mouth, I did this for 2 days and she came back to life. She got her tooth pulled as soon as she was better. I wanted to tell my story so you know that I will do whatever it takes to care for your pup. Our fur babies are family❤️❤️🙏 I am retired and home to take care of your pup. I do have one little dog and 2 cats. My pup is on an eating schedule and walking schedule so if your pup is on any schedule I will accommodate. My dogs and cats are my family members, your dogs and cats will be my extended family members. Making your fur babies comfortable will be my main priority. I have a fenced yard and I live close to a park for your fur babies daily exercise. I have an unfenced pool but I’m very careful about the dogs getting too close. I know how to give medication if your pup has a prescription. I will feed your fur baby at anytime you desire. I do prefer small to medium size dogs, if your fur baby likes to be on the couch I'm ok with that. I can provide a crate if your pup likes sleeping in one or if you prefer to bring your own that's ok as well. All animals have to be potty trained. I watch a friend's fur baby who uses a dog litter box so if you need to bring one I'm ok with that. I will love your pup as I love my own so he or she will aways feel comfortable in my house. I boil chicken for dog treats so if your pup likes treats he or she will love this.

About: My love for animals runs deep—I currently volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I care for cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. From socializing shy pets to walking energetic pups and helping with feeding and cleaning, I’ve gained hands-on experience that’s taught me how to read animal behavior and respond with patience, love, and care. Whether I’m hanging out with a cuddly senior cat or keeping a playful dog entertained, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe and happy. I treat every animal like family and make it my priority to follow their routine and comfort level while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to fit pet care into my daily routine easily. I work remotely and can adjust my hours as needed, which makes it simple to handle walks, feedings, or any last-minute needs that come up. I’m very careful when it comes to pet care. I always make sure the environment is safe, secure, and comfortable—whether it’s in my home or the client’s. I follow any specific instructions closely and treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of love, patience, and attention.

About: My name is Jaden and I am 23! I’ve never had a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet, specifically a dog, until now. My heart is still broken from the passing of my dog and I think now would be a great time for me to get on rover as a sitter! I’m great with all animals and will make sure they’re fed, walked, played with, bathed if needed, and have a cozy place to sleep. I have had senior dogs, dogs that require a med schedule and regimen, puppies who have full energy and dogs with other health issues. I promise your animals will be in great hands and a lovely home with a spacious yard (boarding). I can accommodate any special requests, do sleepovers, drop ins or anything else you may need. I am currently in nursing school. I will have clinicals once a semester starting next year, but until then I have more than enough time to pet sit! I am not working outside of Rover and school. I will care for your pets however you request! Every dog I have had has mainly been an indoor dog. We do have a dog door to go outside freely for the bathroom and sunbathing. We also have a pool but it is gated for the safety of my previous pets and your pets! I live in a great neighborhood near a lot of parks for walks as well. I will follow whatever rules you have set for training purposes, diet purposes, and preferences. I always treat animals with love and will give them lots and lots of attention while they’re in my care.

About: I love animals and would love to help you watch yours if you're out or take them on walks for you! I had a German-Shorthaired Pointer/Labrador mix for 11 years, he passed away recently but brought years of joy and experience with a highly-energetic dog. I recently got my first cat, and I have lived with several other dogs and cats. I do not have any professional experience grooming or dealing with animals, but I am more than willing to help out with letting dogs out, taking them on walks, etc. I definitely have plenty of experience walking dogs because of my little guy. I look forward to hearing from you soon! I currently have quite open availability, almost any day and time should work with some notice, and I will try to make it work regardless. I have a fenced-in yard where a dog can go outside/play fetch. I have 1 cat, but he can be kept in a separate area of the house if preferred.

About: With a lifetime of pet ownership under my belt, I am confident caring for animals of every shape and size. I bring specialized experience to the table, including bottle-feeding and raising 4-week-old kittens, handling large breeds like Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and caring for pocket pets. I absolutely love sitting energetic puppies and know exactly how to keep them safe, engaged, and well-behaved. Your pets will receive the same level of love and meticulous attention that I give my own! Because I manage a flexible part-time schedule, pet care is a seamless and primary focus of my day. I structure my time to guarantee that the animals in my care receive consistent attention, timely feedings, and plenty of active play sessions. Whether it is adjusting to a puppy's strict bathroom schedule or accommodating evening check-ins, my routine allows me to be highly reliable and attentive to your pet's specific daily needs. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities when caring for any animal. I maintain a highly attentive, supervised environment to ensure all pets stay safe and secure during playtime and transitions. I am fully prepared to follow your specific household rules, crate-training preferences, or strictly separated feeding routines to prevent stress. Whether tracking strict schedules or securing the space, I treat every home and pet with the utmost vigilance and respect.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was young if you also have reptiles, fish, chickens, of course dogs or cats! I can help out! I’m looking for something to fill my weekends, I work full time but could do dog walks/ feeds after work when I get home! I work full time 8-5, get home around 6 I could do night walks or runs on weekdays! And on the weekends I’m open to anything! If your animal is aggressive towards strangers I’d be open to doing an interdiction before hand to make sure your animal and I are acquainted with and to confirm I’m comfortable being alone with them.

Alexis took very good care of our kobe! This was our first time using the service and I must say, we were a little bit nervous about leaving Kobe in the care of someone else, but Alexis made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. Communication and sending pictures and updates of Kobe made it even better. We will definitely use Alexis again. Thank you so much! ?

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Avena

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 383 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Avena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Avena. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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 calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
