About: When I was young, I would visit my grandparents' farm and help my grandfather take care of his goats by preparing bottles of milk and feeding them to the kids. I also grew up with a dog named Merlin, but he unfortunately passed away too soon after eating a poisonous sago palm seed. His sudden death was one of the reasons why I decided to get a B.S. degree in Animal Sciences. Some other pets of mine included a pair of hamsters and guinea pigs. Throughout high school and college, I have helped my neighbors and friends by caring for their four-legged family members while they were out of town. I have even cared for some sheep and chickens during graduate school. Currently, I volunteer with Rescue Pals Inc., which is a nonprofit, foster-based animal rescue organization headquartered in Buford. With this organization, I get to help dogs of all ages, from playful and curious 8-week-old puppies to sweet and loyal seniors, find their "furever" homes. I work full-time, but I make sure your pet receives personalized attention, consistent routines, and lots of enrichment throughout the day. I try to adapt to your pet’s specific schedule, medication needs, or energy level. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship and supervision, I’m fully available and dedicated to making your pet feel safe and loved. Your Pet’s Safety is My Priority I make sure to follow all your instructions carefully, whether it’s about feeding, medication, or specific routines. I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible while you're away! I double-check doors, windows, and gates to ensure your pet stays safe and secure in your home. I’m also cautious about walks and outdoor time—always using a leash when needed and avoiding any risky situations. Respecting Your Home and Privacy Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it with the same care I’d give my own. I always follow your guidelines on where I can go and what I can use. You’ll never have to worry about me leaving a mess! I keep everything tidy, and I’ll only use the spaces you’ve told me are okay. I believe communication is key, so I’ll send you regular updates, photos, and videos to help you feel connected to your pet while you’re away. Creating a Calm, Comfortable Environment Your pet’s routine is so important to me, so I stick to their usual schedule as much as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m a calm, patient presence, especially for pets that may be a little nervous or have special needs. I’ll give them plenty of love, playtime, and gentle care. Whether it’s extra snuggles, mental stimulation, or just quiet time, I’m all about making sure your pet feels at ease and loved.
About: I’ve taken care of animals even babies my whole life I even had pets of my own that I cared for very much I had a ferret that was loved by everyone in the house. The only schedule I have is that I can only work every weekday after 4 and every weekend I’m free at any time to work. For my ferret there were certain areas in the house she was not allowed in such as the washroom and the kitchen, those places for her was very dangerous we put up baby gates for her safety and for our concern
“I am very satisfied with Noleen. She went over and beyond what I expected her to do. I appreciated the way that she send pictures and stayed in contact with me about my kitties.”
About: I was raised with cats and dogs. I read a dog training book when I was in high school. I have always been mission-oriented, and today's mission is to ensure your pets are looked after and that you are confident they are safe and healthy. My schedule revolves around animals. If I'm not spending time with my dogs, then it's my mom's dogs. If it's not her dogs, then it's chickens. (Dogs are more fun, have you tried playing fetch with a chicken?) I will care for your pets with the same love and affection I provide to my own dogs, excluding any rough-housing since my dogs tend to play quite boisterously. I will diligently follow all instructions to the best of my abilities and will communicate promptly if I encounter any difficulties, seeking an alternative solution.
“Cassidy is beyond amazing, she did wonderful with Miles (cat) and truly thankful. She is kind, caring, and a delight with animals and people - if I could give more stars 🌟 I would without hesitation. I will certainly be reaching out to her in the future; she truly is amazing!”

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.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
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 .
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.
