“Loved Samantha. Milo n Cali were great when we got home.... Very much a relief leaving them in her care. She also took care of bringing in some boxes for us--which were inconveniently delivered early. Definitely want to use her...very reliable.”
About: I have always had pets in our household. We currently have three large breed dogs and four cats. I have walked beside pets with cancer, needing special attention, all varieties of dogs and cats. I have trained a therapy dog and worked with herding and agility dogs. I love to play ball with dogs or just snuggle with them. I currently work full time but can make arrangements for any time of day to care for your pets. I can be flexible around their needs. Each visit will be filled with love and fun while you are away. I will feed, water, give medicines, and play with your fur baby.
About: I have had two dogs before. One I had for about 4 years and the next one I had for 7. The first dog was a Beagle, and the second was an English Pointer. We also have a family cat who’s 5 and kitten who’s under 1 that lives with my mom. However, I have been around big and small dogs and cats my whole life. I can care mostly in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays, but I have some random times during midday and possibly early morning. I’m usually available the entire weekend for every weekend, but there are some exceptions because of my college priorities. Your dog or cat will get any and all the attention it needs! With that being said, I can only visit your pet and they cannot visit me because I live in college dorms. Caring for your pet in your home is quite simple, though. I just need the ins and outs of the dos and don’ts and we'll be all set!
About: I have 8 years of Veterinary experience from basic wellness to emergency care. I am CPR certified and a full time Veterinary Technician. I am trained to work with even the most demanding pups or kittens. I am a veterinary Technician with a changing schedule and more than enough time throughout day and / or night to take care of your babies. I will only provide the best care in your home. You pet will be kept in an environment they know and trust to make for the healthiest and happiest time.
“McKinsey is amazing with animals - you can tell she loves them. She treats my puppy and kitty as if they are her own. I trust her and am so grateful for her help. Thank you for all that you do! She exceeds all expectations. Highly recommend. Thanks girl!”
About: I've taken care of a multitude of dogs, big and small, since I was a little girl. I have always loved every kind of animal and love to clean and make sure things are taken care of. I am currently working part time as an administrative assistant at Topgolf, but communication is key! As long as I am given 1-2 weeks advance notice I can make myself available for you. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I am an expert at putting cats in carriers. I read animal body language very well and know when to step in and how to meet their exact needs.
About: Background/experience in veterinary medicine. I am very comfortable with giving medication, taking care of special needs/senior pets. I treat every pet as if they are my own. I currently own my own equine business which means I set my own hours. I am a very active person so including other animal duties into my daily life is not difficult. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I would do everything I could to keep them comfortable in their own home while their owners are away. Even if that means sitting on the floor while they take a nap so they don't feel alone.
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Balltown
I am delighted with Michelle's help...it was hard for Smokey and Snow with me away and they were worried about me but Michelle really took good care of them....as a pet owner I can't express the delight and excitement in Snows face when I opened the door and returned home...she licked my face and jumped for joy to see me.
This was our first time using Michele (and using Rover). We saw that Michele had a 5-star rating and she really lived up to it. We were very comfortable while we were away and she was caring for our cat. She was very professional and capable (our cat isn’t the easiest to get to know, but she won him over). We recommend her highly.
Shaniese was excellent and insanely punctual. She made sure to send us plenty of photos and videos of our fur baby, which really gave us some peace of mind while we were traveling. We will definitely be booking her for any future pet sitting we might possibly need.

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.
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 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.
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.
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.
