“Caroline does a great job of taking care of my cat. She clearly loves animals and plays with my kitty and gives her lots of love and attention when she comes over.”

About: As an experienced pet sitter, I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. With a strong understanding of animal behavior and routines, I ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, or extra cuddle time, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your furry family members are in caring, capable hands. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom. I’m home most of the day, so I’m able to provide regular feedings, walks, playtime, and attention. I plan my schedule around making sure pets are comfortable, exercised, and cared for throughout the day. Being home also allows me to keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel safe and part of the household. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I keep their environment clean, give them attention and affection, and make sure they get enough exercise and bathroom breaks. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I treat every pet like part of the family and make sure their routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible.
“Felicia was great! Very friendly and responsive. She sent pictures and videos. She shared that one of our dogs got a little too excited when seeing another dog on their walk and she had no issue redirecting our dog. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Ava was amazing to work with and great with our kitties! She paid attention to their personalities and tendencies and ensured our really apprehensive cat that didn’t want to go to the main feeding area was fed where he was comfortable. She was timely and ultra communicative, always providing a summary update as well as photos of the kitties which we really appreciated. We are hopeful she’ll be available as we need a pet sitter in the future!”
About: Your experience I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember and have cared for both dogs and cats throughout my life. I’ve owned around four dogs and three cats, including a Schnauzer, a Yorkshire Terrier, and mixed breeds. I’ve also helped care for family pets by feeding them, playing with them, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I truly love animals and enjoy being around them. Even though I currently don’t have pets because my apartment is small, I would be very happy to care for pets short-term and give them lots of attention, affection, and patience. I understand how important it is for owners to trust someone with their pets, and I would treat every animal like family. I’m currently very flexible and available most days of the week, which gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and keep pets company. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and short-term care depending on your pet’s needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I live in a clean and calm apartment environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. While I don’t have a private fenced yard, my apartment complex has pet-friendly walking areas and plenty of space for outdoor walks and exercise. There is also a plaza nearby that’s perfect for longer walks and outdoor time. I always pay close attention to pets’ behavior, routines, and safety, and I make sure they receive lots of care, affection, supervision, and patience while staying with me or during visits.
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.

I will be definitely contacting her in the future as my go to pet sitter. I also will recommend her to everyone I know. 5 Stars to Sarah!!! James H.”
“Lindsay was amazing! We went on our honeymoon and never once worried about our cats while we were gone. When we got home they were excited and energetic, and the house was in great shape too! Will definitely be rebooking in the future.”
“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.”

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life sometimes up to four at a time. It's stranger not to have pets around me all the time! I am currently a college graduate working on a few additional certifications. I have a flexible schedule, so I am looking for jobs where I can study in between. Owning pets can be a lot of work. I would like to make your day to day life a little easier by offering my help. I'm excited to offer my services whether it's taking them on walks, brushing their fur, or feeding them. Let's give your fur baby the love they deserve!
About: With a lifelong background working with animals—from reptiles to rabbits—I’m currently a dog bather and former dog trainer who brings hands-on experience and a passion for caring for animals of all sizes. I am currently working full time as a dog bather. I am available all day on Fridays and Saturdays, and after 4 PM on weekdays. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow your pet’s routine closely, make sure they get lots of love and attention!
“Alexis has a great energy and my babies took to her very easily. She’s pleasant, timely and has great communication which leaves me with peace of mind when they are in her care. Definitely will be re-booking 🙂”
“Keena was awesome! She went the extra mile to take care of my paralyzed dachshund and even offered great suggestions on how to make him more comfortable. Great communication and lots of pics ?”
“Sydney was very kind and loving with our cats. She took lots of pictures and was very detailed which made us have peace of mind while out of town. We would definitely recommend her and rebook with her! Our cats loved her.”
About: I grew up with a dog as a kid, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I also raised and trained a puppy from 13 weeks old before gifting him to someone, which gave me hands-on experience with training, patience, and understanding a dog’s needs from an early age. Pet sitting full-time allows me to provide feeding, walks, play, and care consistently, creating structure in my day while ensuring pets stay happy and healthy. To care for pets safely at home, I provide secure spaces, remove hazards, keep supplies out of reach, maintain clean feeding and bedding areas, and ensure calm, supervised interactions.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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 .
