About: I treat every fur baby as if they were my own. Your pet's safety, happiness, exercise, and comfort are my top priorities, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with every furry friend. I'm a professional videographer with a flexible schedule, which allows me to offer reliable and consistent care for pets throughout the week. As an animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat with the same patience, attention, and care I'd want for my own. Whether it's walks, drop in visits, or companionship while you're away, you can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and focused on your pet's safety and happiness. My flexible availability means I can often accommodate last minute requests and provide the attention your furry family member deserves. I've had pets throughout my life and understand how important it is to know they're in good hands. I prioritize safety, consistency, and attention to their individual needs. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions closely while providing plenty of companionship and affection. I'm dependable, communicative, and committed to treating every pet like a valued member of the family, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Charisma is fabulous. She took such good care with our dog and really went above and beyond all expectations. She spent quality time with our pet. She communicated effectively and kept us updated at every visit! I highly recommend her!”

“Alex exceeded my expectations!!! This was my first time to use her and, for that matter, any other sitter than the one that I'd been using for 20 years who left the business due to health reasons. The meet-and-greet went very well. Then, from the first, she came on the schedule that we'd agreed to. The visit notes were timely and welcome When we got home, I realized that Alex had done a fabulous job, probably better than I do. The area around the litter boxes was clean. The used food bowls had been well-washed, ready for use again. The newspapers and delivered packages were neatly stacked. I will definitely ask for her again.”
“With the holiday rush, we forgot to book a cat sitter until the last minute, but we were lucky enough to get Maria! She was very responsive and professional, and she took great care of our two cats.”
“Ive been having great experiences with Corina during her drop-in visit with my dog, Gunner. She were punctual, friendly, and gave Gunner lots of attention and care. I appreciated the detailed updates and professional photo shots—it was clear that he was happy and well cared for. Corina followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable pet care!”
“We were so lucky to have found Marisol as a back up to our other Rover sitter. We have used her twice and have her scheduled for two more visits. She read and followed the instructions in our dogs profile and even brought in a package for us! Our dog was happy when I arrived home from work!”
“Excellent. Booked Kellyn for drop in visits for our cat while out of town. She was communicative about when she would be dropping in and followed our instructions on what we needed. Will book again.”
“I was so happy to have Leah stop in and take care of our pups. She met them ahead of time and made sure she understood what we needed done. We hired her at the last minute and she was very flexible. One of our dogs is super scared of everyone and she did great with Leah! I will definitely hire again without hesitation.”

“Carole was so kind and personable. She’s very detailed, friendly and asked great questions during our first meeting. I know our dog was in great hands. Carole was able to work with us on short notice and helped keep our older dog busy & entertained on his first solo stay. He was very happy and well cared for.”
“Kelly was very communicative and flexible! When she had to make judgement calls she made the right choice and looped us in appropriately. We appreciate her and will partner with her in the future. Thank you!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Barker
I hired Carole to take care of my beloved cats while I was away on a two‑week trip, and she was absolutely amazing. When I came home, my cats were happy, healthy, and incredibly well cared for. It was clear they received a lot of love and attention every single day. Carole did an excellent job with my cats during my time away. Her dedication and attention to detail gave me so much peace of mind while I was traveling. I am extremely grateful for everything she did. Without a doubt, Carole will be my go‑to person every time I need to travel and leave my babies in someone’s care. Highly recommend her!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
