“Michelle provided updates and services as requested. Came home to a non-distressed cat which is all I can hope for with my shy guy. Would book her again.”
“Bailey’s drop-in visits with my dog went great! She was always on time, followed instructions on his care and kept me informed each visit. I won’t hesitate to reach out to her again in the future when in need of a sitter.”
About: I have had to take care of all types of dogs. Small, large, quiet, rowdy, shy, excited, sweet, a bit aggressive, handled it all! Even if I can't handle extremely young puppies just yet, I can assure you that I will always do my best to play, feed, walk, treat, and anything else that your dog needs to be healthy and comfortable. I'm a college student taking classes around lunch time (10-1, depending on the day), but all that extra time can go to your animals! Plus, I don't normally have anything on Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays, so if your animals need constant attention those days are perfect! Whatever care your dog needs in your home, I am happy to provide. I listen to every instruction and will be sure to do the most I can so that your pet is happy, healthy, and safe in whatever confines you have for them.
About: I have been taking care of & rescuing animals my whole life from cats dogs to birds gerbils and mice. I grew up on a country drive surrounded by friends and family who all had animals. I would bring my next door neighbor’s cat who was usually outdoors, back home with me just to make sure she was safe while he was away. On our drive we had a golden lab, a ridgeback, Pomeranians & chihuahuas- many personalities and sizes. I help TNR (trap neuter release) in my city to help stray cats & have learned so much about behavior, handling & caring for even “feral” animals. I’ve had friends text me last minute in regards to baby sitting a new puppy they got or simply checking in on their senior dog because they know this is never a burden for me but something I love to do! There are 3 dogs & 4 cats at our home who always have enrichment surrounding them, get plenty of play time & supervised outdoor enrichment (I don’t ever let my cats outside to roam). They get professionally groomed, teeth cleaned, nails trimmed, we have lavender pet diffusers, salmon oil, meal toppers etc. our pets comfort & care is not taken lighting in my home & it certainly will never be taken lightly in yours! In addition to my care for animals, I have handled injured wild birds & either rehabilitated them or seeked a professional rehab to get them care. I rescued a baby squirrel found in the road & got it rehabbed, I’ve rehomed 3 litter of kittens & 2 momma cats that were strays. Animals have always been my top priority & concern, you will never have to question if yours is in loving hands. As of right now I am currently not doing any other work & am hoping to turn this into a full time job with families who get to know me & want me to be there forever sitter! I will have an open schedule until further notice making me an extremely flexible option for owners seeking care. When it comes to me you will constantly get updates, communication & pictures unless you tell me otherwise! If I’m unsure of something I will always ask rather than just doing. I am one the loves to engage, give company & keep them in supervision. You're not gonna get a sitter who just sits on their phone ignoring your pet the whole time but rather someone who wants to get to know your pet! I love playing, entertaining, cuddling & don’t mind getting a little dirty for sake of establishing & earning a trusted relationship with the animals I care for! I love lists or details about specific needs or schedules so I can give the upmost care & comfort to the pets and owners.
“Catherine was absolutely amazing with my boy. She followed all care instructions and was very patient with my young rambunctious pup. She even went the extra mile in playing with him to get some of that puppy energy out. She took note of the puppy mess in his bed and offered to throw the bed in the wash and replace it with something else before putting him back in the crate. This was my first time using Rover and thanks to my experience with Catherine, I would certainly use it again!”
“Noah is very good with animals! He seems to have a special bond with animals! He has been around dogs and cats since he was a baby! He is a responsible person and loves being with animals! He will do a very good job with your pets!”
“We always feel so much more at ease being on vacation when Alex is checking on our cat babies. He sends photos and lets us know how they are doing. Our one cat can be fussy about where she eats and we know that Alex will move her plate so she can have her solo moment. We appreciate the care and attention he provides.”

Kelli took great care of our 2 boys while we were away for the night. She did an evening drop in to give both of our cats their daily medications and wet food. She was able to give all of the medications without issues and the boys got so much love!! We've already scheduled her again!

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. 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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
