About: My family had puppy dog named Hazel who we had for about 3 years. I used to play fetch with her in the backyard when I’d come home from school when I was around 10. I’d help with baths, walking her, my mom taught me how bring her inside when I was home alone doing homework, she behaved great and protected me well. A few years later, she passed from choking while eating something that I think had a bone in it and that was the first experience of heartbreak/loss. A few years after that, I adopted my current pet cat on my birthday, Ace, who I love so much. I’ve always loved animals and give pets to dogs whenever I have permission to, my best friend has many dogs so when I go over her house, I get all the cuddles and get drooled on, which I’m used to at this point. I love watching dog training videos and educating myself as I get older so when I finally get a dog again, as an adult, I want to be prepared and educated on how to protect their health, feed them properly and keep them safe with proper nutrition, exercise and training. I would personally love to get myself a Doberman or German Shepherd (Like Hazel was). I often go to my aunts house who has multiple chunky french bulldogs and help her in anyway I can, I enjoy how sweet dogs are and would love to help do any training techniques you’d love your little doggo to be working on while you are away. I am also in the process of my goal of losing 100lbs! So this helps me get the exercise I need while doing something I’m passionate about! Weekday and Weekends for now, preferably during the Morning & Afternoons on Weekdays and anytime as long as there is a day notice beforehand so I can clear my schedule just for your pet. Not currently doing pet sitting or boarding at my own home, maybe I will be more likely to in the future but I’m not sure yet.
About: I love all animals, from dogs and cats to birds, reptiles, and other small pets! I’m caring, patient, and dedicated to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every animal has different needs and routines, and I’ll do my best to follow your instructions and provide the best possible care. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and kindness while you’re away. I want you to feel confident knowing your furry, feathered, or scaly friend is in caring hands! I do my best to be flexible and work with each pet owner’s schedule. I can discuss feeding times, walks, playtime, drop-in visits, and other care needs in advance. My goal is to make sure your pet receives consistent attention and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I will carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, and make sure your pet has fresh water, food, and a safe environment. I will keep doors secure, pay attention to their behavior, and contact you if I notice anything unusual.
About: I have taken care of pets basically my entire life, of course I have had to learn and improve my skills from when I was younger. My family members have many pets which they rely on me to take care of when they are unable to. I am also going to school for a degree in biological sciences in hopes to find a career as a vet tech or anything which will allow me to work closely with animals. :) I am a 4th year biological science major at UC Merced. I hope to pursue a career which will allow me to work with animals closely while also spending time outdoors. I also am very interested in learning about animal husbandry and pet care. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings, perfect for when dogs need to go potty! My services are mostly in clients’ homes because I have two cats and a small house which will not be big enough for larger animals like dogs. The way I care for pets in clients’ homes will be up to the client themselves as every pet parent has different ground rules and boundaries for their fur babies. I will do the basics like feeding and playing but will refrain from most other things unless requested to avoid stepping over boundaries, especially in other people’s homes.

“I contacted Afton about providing drop in visits to feed/ take care of my cats while I was away for a long weekend. She was very responsive, both before and during my time away. She arranged a time to come by ahead of my trip, asked appropriate questions, and followed directions while I was away. I appreciated her detailed write-ups that let me know how both cats were doing. My indoor cat is a rescue who is very afraid of new people. I wasn't sure how she would respond to a new person in the house with me away, but she did very well. I would definitely use Afton's services again.”
“Marla was great. Clear communication and flexible when needed. She sent update pics and managed to get my super shy cat in front of her camera. I would book her again without hesitation.”
About: I have always had a deep love for animals, and my experience caring for pets reflects that passion. Over the years, I’ve owned, walked and watched dogs of all breeds, providing them with exercise, companionship, and personalized attention. I understand the importance of routine and am committed to ensuring your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or playtime at the park, I’m dedicated to giving your dog the best care while you’re away. My approach is patient, reliable, and attentive, making sure your pet’s needs are always met. I’m currently a dental student at Western University of Health Sciences. Help me pay my way through dental school ☺️ As a full time student attending Western University of Health Sciences my schedule is very flexible, everyday of the week is available to care for your pets. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, trust, and comfort, whether in your home or mine. In my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure areas for play and rest, keeping potential hazards out of reach. I make sure your cat or dog has access to fresh water, food, and a clean space to relax. I have a fenced in backyard in a safe small neighborhood. For walks, I use secure leashes and collars, and I am always vigilant of the environment around us to ensure their safety. In your home, I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, providing a familiar and calm atmosphere. I respect your home and keep it tidy, ensuring your pet feels at ease and has everything they need while you're away. Trust is key, and I always maintain open communication with updates so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: Dogs and cats have always been a part of my home life since I was a child. I have raised puppies and kittens and currently live with my dog Willow and my cat, Monkey. I walk and hike frequently with y dog, and I am able to care for high energy dogs. I have a full-time job that allows me to work three days a week. The other four days a week I have a lot of flexibility to make myself available to care for your pet. I have a fenced yard, a pet, friendly home, and a lovely white Swiss Shepherd, who loves other animals. Anytime dogs are in my yard, I am always outside supervising them. They are just like my kids.
About: I taken care when I was very young even taking care of ill/sick animals. I'll nurse them back to health when vets couldn't do it. I bottle feed and take them to the restroom when they are babies. I been taking care since 10 years old. I'm very open with my schedule and love to be around animals. I work from home working as a editor and have lots of free time. I have a gate area for all animals. I always have them on a leash and make sure we walk in the morning or evening. It's too hot for their paws if you have booties for them even great. Always have water on me and poop bags. I never have anything laying around for them to eat or play with. I'm always outside with them when need to go potty and play.

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.

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 .
