“A very fine cat sitter extraordinaire! Amber and Ginger hit it off nicely from the beginning. The communications and photos were so appreciated. We traveled for two weeks and it made such a difference to know our precious cat was in good hands. Thanks, Amber”
“Kim was amazing! Fish loved her immediately and so did we. She did a great job keeping us updated and was super prompt and communicative. We would love to use Kim's services again!”
“I had a great experience with Mallory this past weekend while I was traveling. We did a meet and greet a couple weeks before my trip. She was so kind and my cat took to her immediately. I hired Mallory for 2 drop in visits and during these visits I received several pictures of my kitty enjoying her company along with a report of anything I needed to know (missing Christmas ornaments, litter box usage etc.). I will definitely be asking Mallory to drop in on my cat for future trips!”
“Misty is professional and you can tell she loves taking care of animals and treats them like they’re her own. She took care of our little chihuahua while we went away for a trip and she checked on him on the times we requested. Played with our little guy and let him burn his energy. She respected our home and she sent several pics with every visit! My kids loved seeing those pictures. I would definitely book Misty again! She was fantastic. ⭐️”
“So reassuring to have Jill and Eric check in on our cats while we are away! One is a pretty picky eater and they have no problem accommodating her quirks and love her none the less :)”
“My cat (Blair) and I had an excellent experience with Alexis. She was excellent with communication and provided detailed daily updates about each visit. Alexis was attentive to Blair’s needs, ensuring she was well-fed, hydrated, and entertained. Blair was clearly happy and comfortable in her care. I appreciated the peace of mind knowing that Blair was in good hands. I will definitely try to book Alexis again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Adelynn was great with my two cat siblings. She even located my super skittish boy who NEVER appears for strangers and had photo evidence of life. It was so reassuring and definitely spoke her to her thorough care. Will definitely try to connect with her again when needed!”
“Ashlee is amazing, she is so thoughtful and kind. My cats, who don’t like many people, really warmed up to her quickly. Ashlee is so reliable and communicative, I will always choose her to take care of my kitties.”
“Ashley did a wonderful job caring for my cat and home while I was out of town! She maintained great communication throughout my time away and made my cat feel very comfortable. Will definitely book with her again!”

Please don't hesitate to reach out to me for any clarification on my rates. Trust is a significant factor when it comes to putting your animals in someone else's care, it's important to follow any instruction that you leave me for your pet while always keeping you updated and taking your pets safety first and foremost. All of my clients and animals are treated as I would expect my animals and myself to be treated. They become my family when I care for them. I am also very knowledgeable about toxic materials including plants, food, etc. For birds, dogs and cats. I am cautious and constantly aware of my surroundings. I prefer to be preventative when it comes to animal care.
“Jennie is absolutely wonderful! She is so thorough with every visit and her communication is incredible. She gives the most detailed summaries and tons of photos along with them. She is so flexible and even went the extra mile to help us navigate getting home safely during the storm. I’d choose her again and again to care for my babies.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for at least 15 years, being my own, family/friends, and others. Experienced with small to large breeds dogs with elder care experience including walking/standing restrictions, special diet needs, and medication distribution. I'm currently studying online courses and can be available most hours and days for pet care with little restrictions. My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect, treating them as if they were my own. My main goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine to minimize anxiety while you are away. I strictly follow all feeding, medication, and exercise guidelines, and I provide photo updates after each visit for your total peace of mind.
About: I have taken care of everything you can think of, it began when I was 9 years old. My family moved on a horse farm, where we took care of 13 horses everyday. After that my family ran a dog kennel with a capacity of 65 dogs, did that for about 4 years. I decided to branch out and start working for myself. I have pet sat for some years now during that, I have cared for live stock, birds, turtles, fish. I currently work weekends, between 8am-2pm. Unfortunately animals don’t talk so I got a part time job to get out of the house and socialize. I have a fenced in year, plenty of toys, a couple crates, definitely lots of bowls. Some dog beds, along with some blankets. Anything your animal may want I try to have. Of course bring anything that you think would help your doggie adjust.

Jennifer did a great job this time taking care of Madeleine the kitten and also Caly, the dog. She had to walk Caly this time and she sent photos and notes. I will definitely be using her again as she follows all directions and seems to love all animals. What a jewel!!!!
My cat decided to become an escape artist right as I left for my vacation. These guys went above and beyond looking for her. They spent a long time looking on the first day when we confirmed that she was missing and continued combing the bushes and roads daily until I returned home. Excellent sitters who will love your pet as you do!

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.

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 .
