“Isabella did a great job taking care of our senior cat. She communicated right away when Punkin was too stressed and anxious to give her medicine. She suggested another way which worked well. The communication every day through Rover eased my mind about leaving Punkin by herself. We will definitely be using Isabella again.”

About: Dog sitting is more than a job for me- it’s a passion! I’ve spent time with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Terriers to gigantic Great Danes. I’m not just your average sitter; I bring a knack for understanding doggy body language, a talent for getting even the pickiest pups to swallow their pills, and I always carry a bag full of treats (of course!). Whether your dog needs a running buddy, a snuggle partner, or just someone to toss the ball again and again- I’ve got it covered. I pride myself on keeping tails wagging and owners stress free, knowing their fur babies are in the best hands. Since pet sitting is my primary job and I’m currently a college student, my schedule is quite flexible. I can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine, offering plenty of time for walks, play sessions, and any special needs your dog may have. My evenings and weekends are also free, so I can provide consistent care and attention throughout the week. Safety and trust are crucial when caring for pets in your home. I make sure to follow your specific instructions to the letter, from feeding routines to exercise needs. I will keep your home secure by ensuring all doors and gates are closed and never leave your pet unattended in potentially hazardous situations. I also maintain a clean and organized environment, respecting your space and belongings. Your pet’s well-being is my utmost concern, and I strive to provide the same level of care and attention that you would.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I have professional experience working in kennels and pet resorts, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, administering oral/topical medications, and following each pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets at once. I have pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your fur babies. ❤️ I treat every pet I care for with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your pet loves cuddles, playtime, long walks, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable. Big or small, young or old — every fur baby deserves to feel safe, loved, and cared for while their family is away. 🐶🐱❤️ I work part time and have days off. I can come over when your pet wants to play or have a nice walk. I can also stay with your pets for long periods of time. I don’t have a fenced yard but I do have a big yard for play and walks. I have a big home to roam around in and two children that can play with pets also if you as the owner are okay with that.
About: I worked at an animal shelter for a 4 years- fostering litters of puppies and older dogs at my home. I’m currently studying Animal Behavior & Digital Cinematography through online classes; I am a Certified Vet Assistant. I have 2 friendly active dogs of my own as well! I currently work at a rescue part-time, so I have experience with all breeds from all types of backgrounds! From anxious dogs to the high energy goofball’s I can handle it. I’m currently a part-time student and part time employee at a boarding facility. I go on runs, walks and hikes and would love to bring your pet for a stroll. I am also able to just hang out and spend quality time with your pup or cat if they have separation anxiety. I have a fenced yard and pool. If your animal needs to be kenneled, a crate will need to be provided. Three people in total live in my household, so someone will always be present to keep an eye on everything. Feeding will be done separate as a safety precaution and playtimes with my personal dogs will be monitored. I treat every animal as though they are my own; furbabies are exactly as the name suggests- babies!!

About: I grew up caring for many kinds of animals and have always been a lover of nature and wildlife. With our family pets, we often fostered cats and dogs, as well as newborn kittens and puppies. I volunteered for the Animal Welfare League in Port Charlotte, FL, caring for cats and dogs of many varieties for several years. I currently have 4 cats of my own, all rescues which I love dearly! It would be an honor for you to trust me with the care of your pet, and I guarantee that I will love and care for them as if they were my own. I have experience with providing cats with basic, routine medical treatments such as pills, topicals, and liquid medications. Communication is important to me, and I will gladly provide you with any updates or answer any questions you may have while I'm looking after your home or pet. I'm currently seeking more self-employment opportunities, so my availability for daily or weekly sitting services is completely open! If you're looking for regular walks/visits, we can work together to schedule according to your pet's needs. You can rely on me to treat your home and pets with integrity and respect. Ensuring the comfort and safety of your animals is my top priority! I will listen to your unique needs and concerns, and provide attentive care.
“Alexis was absolutely amazing with Mocca! She was incredibly caring, attentive, and loving, and we could tell Mocca felt so comfortable with her. She always kept us updated and sent us pictures during every visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Mocca and gave her so much love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with Alexis again. Highly recommend her! 🐾❤️”

About: Hi there! My name is Payton, and if your pet could pick their own sitter, I’d like to think we’d be best friends. 😊 I’m a certified canine trainer with experience ranging from basic obedience all the way to working dogs trained in tracking, scent detection, and behavior modification. I’ve worked with puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, shy dogs, and even the occasional spicy dog that isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I also have a background in veterinary medicine, so I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring pets recovering from procedures, and keeping a close eye on any special needs your pet may have. When your pet is in my care, they’re treated like family. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, so I make it a point to send plenty of photos, updates, and little messages so you know exactly how they’re doing while you’re away. Whether your dog wants to play fetch, your cat wants someone to respect their personal space, or your pet just needs a reliable friend while you’re gone, I’d love to help. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! A little about my schedule: I work at a pediatric dental clinic during the week, but I have a long lunch break that allows me to return home and let pets out, provide potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, check-ins, and feedings throughout the day. Thursdays and Fridays are shorter workdays for me, and I’m off on weekends and most holidays. Creating a safe and comfortable environment is my top priority, whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I use secure kennels to provide pets with a cozy, structured space, especially during rest periods or overnight stays. For transport, I have two large, crash-tested Ruffland kennels in my vehicle to ensure every ride is as safe as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, I take every effort to follow your instructions to the letter. I believe consistency is key, so I maintain your pet’s routine, from feeding times and walks to their favorite toys or sleeping spots. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first.
“Rashana was super communicative and respectful of the things we needed done for our cat while we were out of town. Her kindness really separates her from everyone else on Rover and exemplifies professionalism. Will book Rashana from now on with any of our pet-sitting needs.”

About: Hi! We’re a sibling team who loves caring for pets and treating them like family. This account is now shared between us, but my sister Kathy will be the primary caregiver and will be handling most of the communication, bookings, and day-to-day services.

From long walks and playtime to feeding routines and giving lots of attention, we understand that every pet has their own personality and needs.

I have quite a busy schedule but I am always free to give my time for dogs and cats because they bring me so much joy. I am mostly free on weekends but I do offer a full Thursday as well. For Monday’s, I have Zoom meetings every week from 4:30pm-6:45pm so if that’s something I can work on while being with your pets, it works out! I can offer to take your pets for walks, or simply play with them in the yard, or just lay around and cuddle with them if they are the more relaxed kinds. I am not offering boarding at the moment, so any services I am offering, it will be held at your place set by your rules!

I also walk in the morning,afternoon and the evening behind my house I have a lake that’s has a path to walk and it’s 1 mile around the lake. I also have a dog park near by my house.

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.

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 .
