About: I have pet sat for families before, with most pets including their birds. I enjoy meeting and spending time with new animals. I do it on my free time, and even carry around food if I see an animal in need while I'm out and about. Hi! I'm a college student, who adores animals especially kitties! Just looking to spend time with your pets, while also making a little bit of money to help with school. My pets, Lucy my pup and Ash my kitty, are extremely loved and spoiled. They believe they really are little babies, it's adorable. I do lots of research on what is healthy for my pets, best foods, training, behavior patterns, etc.
“Our cat was well cared for under Emily’s watch! We received regular updates with photos as our cat warmed up to her throughout the week. Emily was highly attuned to our cat’s needs—even picking up after a hairball and making sure the cat received playtime and attention every visit.”
About: I have taken care of my friend's dogs off and on for a few years, and I have found I excel at taking care of pets, the way owners take care of their own! I work from home and I'm able to give your dog my full attention. I work from home, so I am able to give give full attention to your pet as needed! My weekends are pretty quiet, But I do sometimes go out to play shows on the weekends. I'm fully capable of taking the dog out, feeding, walking, and other tasks as instructed. I'm unable to wash, groom, or cut nails. I simply don't have experience in those aspects
About: Hi, I’m Kristen! For more than 25 years, my home and heart have belonged to rescue dogs. I know firsthand that our four-legged family members require patience and understanding as they age or transition through life. Right now, I share my life a senior rescue hound (age ~13) who receives daily oral medications. Recently, I lovingly cared for my 15-year-old rescue through a cancer diagnosis, managing a complex daily schedule of multiple medications and physical mobility assistance, including carrying her safely up and down stairs. I was also the primary caregiver for our 17-year-old Shih Tzu/Jack Russell mix, whom I adopted when he was 9 months old, until he peacefully passed. Because I don't work a traditional 9-to-5 job right now, my schedule is open. Your pets will receive my undivided attention, whether they need drop-in visits, walks, or a house sitter to keep them company overnight in the comfort of their own home. I treat every animal with the same love and vigilance I give my own. I'm available every day for house-sitting, drop-ins, or walks. I'd love to meet your furry babies! I'll adapt my schedule to the routine your dog is used to. This typically includes about 45 minutes of exercise per day for dogs, daily updates and photos, and companionship for cats. Senior pet devotion: I'm deeply familiar with the slow pace, mobility challenges, and physical vulnerabilities of aging pets. Medication administration: Expert at seamlessly giving oral medications, tracking complex dosing schedules, and managing medical care (inspired by my own pets' health journeys). Rescue and reactivity knowledge: My first rescue, Simon, was dog-reactive. I understand the vigilance required on walks, how to read canine body language, and how to keep a reactive dog calm and safe. Community minded: Proud volunteer for Cincinnati Animal Care, giving me hands-on experience with dogs from all backgrounds and temperaments.
“Victoria watched our older cat, Lucky, while we were on vacation. She was highly communicative, very caring, and sent great photos of a cat that’s pretty shy. I’d highly recommend her. We came home to a very happy kitty!”
About: I am a very passionate, attentive, and empathetic person when it comes to any and all animals! For many years I have taken sole care of both dogs and cats of all different breeds, and am well experienced in all general pet care to include special needs pets. All of the dogs I ever had as a kid were trained as puppies almost solely by myself and my brothers. My mom used to make me read books and do online research about the breed of dog we had, different training techniques, K9 first-aid, and so much more. Being as passionate as I am about animals, those studies were well retained, and while I don't have professional experience, the knowledge gained from doing it on my own with 9 different dogs over my lifetime have graced me with at the very least, an in depth knowledge of all different stages of dog ownership. This knowledge was also accentuated professionally as I worked alongside military police K9 handlers during my time in the Air Force. Not to worry though, I mix structure, routine, and discipline with plenty of tender loving care, and know how to tune my approach to dogs of all temperaments. In regards to puppies: I have experience potty training, leash training, crate training, and what I would call experienced but moderate obedience training skills. I know how to deal with things like food aggression, how to properly establish the "hierarchy" or "pack mentality" and other conditioning behaviors. As well as handling young puppies, I've even assisted a momma in giving birth to a new litter, and taking special care of a brand new litter of 7 pups! So my experience with all dogs truly does begin at birth and goes all the way to end of life care. For the old timers: The couch potatoes in our lives need just as much, and sometimes even more care than their energetic and young counterparts. I have experience with things like giving medication and shots, managing specialty diets, and a number of other age specific needs. I'm very patient and am willing to take the time to get to know your pet and what they need. Every animal has a different personality and needs attention in different ways, and I'm very attentive to that! I will always treat your pet as if they were my own, and will to the best of my ability make sure that your pet is well taken care of at all times. I'm a full-time nomad and side gigs are my primary source of income. Pet care IS my weekly routine. I'm available and more than happy to abide by the normal 9-5 schedule for daytime pet care, but I can also easily adjust to fit any alternate schedule; whether you need overnight pet care, or any other odd schedule constraints met, I am available. I have lived with my own dog in a variety of different conditions. From being on our own in both houses and apartments, to having a full house of dogs and cats. I am well versed in any additional responsibilities and special care based on living situations, and have no trouble go up and down a few flights of stairs for potty breaks/walks, etc.
“Me and my partner were so grateful for having Laura take care of our cats, mostly because we were at ease knowing they were safe and cared for in her hands. Would recommend, and will be booking with her firm now on.”
About: Not only am I a veterinary technician, but I also have a variety of different species of pets at home, ensuring I will be able to treat your babies as my own! I have experience training puppies, administering medications, aiding in senior care, and helping with any other additional needs your pet may have. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play and love on your fur babies! I also have many pets of my own, so I have built in adequate time to give all of my pets the love and attention they need. I am willing to work with you no matter your preferences when it comes to your pet! I am used to crating pets, walking pets, and letting them out in a timely manner, to ensure that they are not letting up on their routine.
About: I’ve walked and taken care of 100lb to 5 lb dogs & kitties! Im Avail to walk, feed, and say hi when you need it!! I may have been a cast member trying to find love through a wall; but I promise I won’t let the blind lead the blind here! ;) No pun intended. 😅 I love my babies 🐱🐶🐱and I’ll love on yours like they’re my own!💕 I’m a ICU nurse, so I am available 4 days out of the week. Every week is a little different but I can definitely work with any schedule! I have 1 dog and 2 kitties; needless to say I am an animal lover who treats all animals like my own 🐾 I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to take your dog on fun walks, give them plenty of love, and make sure they’re well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s exercise, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, your dog or cats will be in safe, loving hands with me.
“My introduction to ROVER was a very positive one. First of all, Shanta did a great job of communicating what we could expect and the services she provides. During the 5 days we were on vacation, I always knew I could call or text to see how our cat, Simon, was doing. In fact, she even sent us pictures of Simon during his stay. And when we needed to pick him up earlier than expected, Shanta was very accommodating. Overall, it was a good experience.”
“Cassidy was absolutely fantastic with our house and cats. Cassidy communicated so well, took amazing photos, and helped keep our boys happy. Would recommend to anyone! It made our honeymoon very nice.”
“Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
About: Growing up with Steve Irwin as my role model, I have personal experience with pets of many varieties, including cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, crabs, etc. I have professionally worked as a cat sitter for 2 years, as well as experience working in a vet clinic as a receptionist and assistant. I have experience with befriending the most timid pets, playing with the best of ‘em, and providing oral and topical medications. I am the full time pet parent to my two cats, Mabel and Luna! I am a mental health therapist by day and an animal lover all the time! I can be available for overnight stays on the weekends and for drop in visits/walks in the morning before 9am or after 4pm. I maintain a calm, loving demeanor with every pet I care for. Much like humans in therapy, I meet the pet where they are and encourage them by building a strong rapport. In your home, I will be respectful of the space by keeping it clean, as well as towards your pet!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Avoca Park
Margo and her husband were great. She followed all the instructions and took very good care of our babies. She played with them made sure to give them attention. Both cats liked her so she’s definitely the kind of person pets gravitate to. I would absolutely recommend.
Drew took wonderful care of our cat Zaza while we were away. Zaza is naturally quite shy, so she was a bit timid at first, but within a few days you could really see the difference. The photos Drew sent showed her looking comfortable and relaxed, and it was clear she was getting attentive, patient care. We really appreciated the regular updates and the attention to Zaza’s personality. We’d happily book Drew again and highly recommend him to anyone with a shy cat who needs a little extra patience!
Jocelyn did such a great job taking care of my Niko while I was away. Her check ins were timely and she always provided reassuring updates during her drop in sessions. She was also super flexible and able to accommodate my schedule which I really appreciated. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to leave their furry friend in good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,158 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Avoca Park. 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 .
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 .

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

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.
