“Caroline was great with our cat. Clear communication and provided frequent updates with lots of photos. Very reliable and felt totally comfortable with her in our home. Our cat loved her and got plenty of playtime. Will definitely book again with Caroline in the future.”

About: I have been working with animals professionally since college (20 years ago) as a shelter manager, foster parent, advocate, and pet parent to my own cats and dogs. My entire family are animal rescuers and our world revolves around our fur kids. I have experience with older animals, medications, injections, and I have a paralyzed dog myself. I know how hard it can be to leave if you have a special needs animal. I work for myself, so I can make my own hours. I can normally fit pet care into my daily routine aside from school drop off and pick up I am very flexible. I will love them like they are my own, making sure to follow your instructions and keep an eye out for anything abnormal and alert you. It is important to pay attention especially when the pet parents are away. I am not afraid to over communicate if it means the pets are well cared for.
“Baoer and her daughter visited our home for a meet and greet before we confirmed the booking. While we were away, they took great care of Kea (our cat). Baoer followed all our feeding and cleaning instructions, and they played with him a lot too. We were relieved to know he’s being cared for and adored.”
“Natalie was awesome while sitting for my cat, Bella. When I returned from my work trip Bella looked great. She keep Bella fed and everything neat and tidy. I really really appreciate Natalie and will book her again.”
About: I'm the type of person who spends all my time hanging out with animals at any function. I have lots of experience with aggressive, shy, senior, independent, clingy, and playful pets, and I pay close attention to your pet's personality so I can meet each pet's needs. I love to stay active but am also a homebody and could spend all day giving your pet the attention they deserve. I've had a dog since I was 10, and I know how much photos of your pet can brighten your day, so I will be sure to keep you updated! I work remotely, so I have flexible hours and plenty of time to play and take care of your pet. I travel often, but I update my availability weeks in advance. Please note: I am unavailable for Sunday bookings between 9 am and 3 pm. I am unable to care for pets at my own place, but I am more than willing to make the trip to stay at your home or drop in to feed/walk/play according to your needs. My dog is a very picky eater, so I understand that each pet's feeding routine is different, and I will always accommodate what your pet is used to.
“Laila did an amazing job! We reached out last minute and she was very responsive. Her communication was amazing and she went above expectations to spend time and play with our kitties. We will definitely rebook with her!”
About: What Sets Me Apart I bring years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages and sizes. I’m comfortable with senior dogs who need medications, eye drops, or extra attention, as well as puppies and large breeds. I also have experience working with animals that have resource-guarding issues and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and trust. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals. I’m 56 years old, dependable, patient, and have the life experience to recognize that every animal has its own personality, needs, and comfort level. I have a rotating work schedule, but I can usually accommodate requests between 8 AM and 9 PM. Need a different time? Feel free to ask! Pet-Friendly Home I have a fenced-in yard, along with a friendly dog and cat to keep your pet company. My wife and I can accommodate puppies ( under 12 months) and large dogs (over 40lbs-80lbs) for a small $10 additional fee.
About: I have been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have owned a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Chihuahua dog.I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I will treat your dog like a member of my family and make sure they feel safe,comfortable,and happy while staying in my home. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I 'm available boarding on weekdays and weekends. I have a house with unfenced yard.I don't have dog or cat. Your fur baby can play freely inside,and I can take them outside to play. She/he can have her/his own room if you need.
About: I have had experience with dogs since I was very young, and I currently have two dogs that I raised from puppies. They are complete opposites from each other in size and temperament and have very different needs, so I feel confident caring for different dogs that may have different needs. Whether you need someone to swing by and give your pup a nice walk, or someone reliable to drop in and let them out, feed them, or just play with your dog while you’re out, I’d love to be that person for you and your dog! I currently work another job 4 days a week, and have the other 3 off. I’m available Sunday, Tuesday & Wednesday 11am- 4:30pm. I have a 6 year old daughter that I pick up from school at 6:30pm so I just want to make sure I have enough time to get back to pick her up also ☺️ I currently have our two dogs crate trained, so I feel comfortable crating your dog/s if needed. I can feed, play, give medicine (if needed) and walk your dog at your home. I would prefer to do a meet and greet with all owners and dogs before hand, so a new person coming into there home isn’t a surprise to the dog and also just to make sure it’s a good match for everyone involved ☺️
“Alicia was an amazing pet sitter! She was on time every day and provided multiple pictures each day. I could tell she genuinely cared for my kitty. She even left me the most beautiful embroidery of my kitty. I will definitely be rebooking with Alicia in the future!”
About: I’m new to Rover, but I have experience caring for dogs through family friends. I’ve done overnight care for two dogs for an entire week in their home and have recently been asked to care for them again. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I’ll treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own! As a current college student my schedule varies throughout the week, but I am generally available on Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. I’m also happy to provide dog walking or drop-in visits on other days when my class schedule allows! For daily walks or multiple visits per day, my availability will depend on the number of visits needed and the requested times. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s routine to find a time that works best for everyone! Their pet’s safety and comfort are definitely my top priorities! I follow instructions very carefully as well as send updated pictures and messages so my clients have some peace of mind when they’re away!
“Chelsie is a great sitter for our girls! She is on time, communicative, and sends great updates and pictures. We were out of town during a bout of scary weather predictions and she helped prepare the house and the cats in case the weather was as bad as predicted for which we were grateful.”
About: I’ve been caring for both dogs and cats for many years, as a longtime pet owner and former veterinary technician. I raised my own dog from puppyhood through her senior years, and I also have experience caring for cats in my own home, so I understand that dogs and cats often need very different types of attention and interaction. As a former veterinary technician, I gained hands-on experience with animal handling, basic medical care, monitoring pets, and recognizing changes in behavior or condition. I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including shy or cautious animals who may need extra time to feel comfortable. I’m an active person who loves walking, hiking, and spending time outdoors with dogs, but I also really enjoy the quieter side of caring for cats—playtime, feeding, litter box care, brushing, and simply giving them company on their own terms. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’ll treat them with the same patience and care I give my own pets. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Promo code for $20! https://www.rover.com/sit/arielh61427 I currently work part-time three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets. I’m especially available on my days off and can dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. If our schedules align, I’m always happy to welcome your furbabies for boarding as well! I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including previous experience working as a veterinary technician. I’ve also invested in professional training for my own dog, including off-leash and obedience training, so I’m very comfortable with dog handling, leash skills, reading body language, and safely managing different behaviors and personalities. I’m happy to tailor each visit to your pet’s individual needs, whether that means going for a walk, playing and getting some energy out, or simply spending time with them and keeping them company. Because of my veterinary background, I’m also comfortable caring for pets who take medications, including administering tablets and liquid medications as directed. I’m familiar with monitoring basic vital signs and recognizing concerning changes in a pet’s behavior or condition that may need prompt attention. Safety is always my priority, and I will carefully follow each owner’s instructions, routine, feeding schedule, and any special care needs. I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can feel reassured that your pet is happy, comfortable, and safe while in my care.

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.

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 .
