About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 40 years and currently share my home with three cats. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and small pets, including senior pets and those with medications or special routines. I’m calm, dependable, detail-oriented, and believe every pet deserves care tailored to their individual personality and needs. I work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to offer dependable morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week. I do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine whenever possible. I treat every home with respect and carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, medications, walks, litter boxes, and any special instructions. I’ll keep your home secure, clean up after your pet, and send regular photo updates so you know they’re happy and well cared for.
“Bhavneet took excellent care of my cats when I was out of town. She provided prompt updates, pictures, and went above and beyond when one of my cats got sick. I would recommend her services!”
“Katie was amazing! So thorough in her notes for all the animals and sent plenty of pictures— I was happy to know they were in good hands. I was also so grateful for her flexibility in taking a booking last-minute!”
About: I've been a foster and pet sitter for mostly greyhounds for the past 20 years, and have always had dogs of my own. I've gone through obedience classes and grooming, and am pretty good with most temperaments. I am very available and flexible, since I'm retired. I can come by during the day, including weekends and holidays, whatever works for you and your pet. Please note that I accept in-home stays that are a minimum of two nights. I can come to your home and stay, or visit to let your dog out, walk, or feed. Safety is a big factor and I'll do my best!
About: What sets me apart is my patience, empathy, and special skills with both young puppies and senior dogs. I have experience with training basic puppy manners, as well as caring for older pets who may need medication, slower walks, or extra comfort. I also provide consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing. As a Deaf sitter, I bring an extra sense of visual awareness and attentiveness - pets often respond really well to body language and calm energy, which makes our bond even stronger. Families I’ve worked with appreciate my reliability, safety focus, and genuine love for their pets Pet care is a fundamental part of my daily and weekly routine. I ensure I take them for potty breaks 4-6 times a day. I feed them and engage in outdoor play sessions 2-3 times daily, providing both exercise and companionship. I live in an apartment with ample living room space and have access to an outdoor backyard that includes forest hiking trails and a mini dog park. Whether in my home or my client's, I ensure pets have plenty of space for comfort and play. I provide a safe and engaging environment, tailored to their needs, ensuring they feel at home and well-cared for.

About: I’ve had a dog in the house since I was eight years old. Growing up with a pitbull as my childhood dog. Two pitbulls in the house after our first one passed. I take them on walks. Have been to training sessions with them. Confident taking care of dogs and just adopted my own in January. I am currently a D1 student athlete. My classes this semester are pretty light. I have no classes M, W, or F so am most free those 3 days. I would love to fit pet care daily into times that work. Some things I've done for my dogs: I have a fenced in backyard, throw toys around the yard for them. Both of my dogs have harnesses and prong collars for walks. They are fed twice a day. Their paws are washed off when its muddy outside.

My dog absolutely adores her, and I always feel confident leaving him in her capable hands. Highly recommend Gigi for anyone needing a reliable and loving pet sitter!”

“Karibian was a lifesaver for our family! We had somewhat limited notice to needing our girls cared for and she stepped in and helped us.

I highly recommend her service and will definitely rebook with 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 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.

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.
