About: Hi, I’m Zoe! I’m an experienced pet owner with 6 years of hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs. I’ve raised my own cats since they were two months old and have cared for my dog since puppyhood, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and building trust with every pet. I currently have a 2-year-old Cavapoo who is energetic, friendly, and loves exploring new places. Taking care of him has taught me the importance of regular exercise, mental stimulation, and understanding each pet’s unique personality. I work full-time during weekdays and am available after 6 pm on weekdays, throughout weekends, for dog walks, drop-in visits, and cat care. I also offer weekend boarding from Friday evening to Sunday. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine and always follow owner instructions carefully. I love taking photos and sharing updates, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like my own. I work full-time during weekdays and am available after 6 pm on weekdays, throughout weekends, for dog walks, drop-in visits, and cat care. I also offer weekend boarding from Friday evening to Sunday. I understand the importance of keeping pets on a consistent routine, so I always make sure each visit is reliable and attentive. I’ll communicate clearly, follow your pet’s routine, and provide photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is well cared for while you’re away.
“Anissa is absolutely incredible!! She has done a fantastic job looking after my 3 fur babies!! She has gone much over and above in everything aspect. Thanks so much Anissa!!!! 💖💖🥰💖”
“I had a wonderful experience with my Alaia. She cared for my three cats from December 12 to December 29. She was consistently professional and reliable, arriving every morning within the agreed time window and often staying longer than the expected 30 minutes to ensure all was well. Her communication was clear and to-the-point, making it easy to stay informed without unnecessary detail. She followed my care instructions perfectly and left instant pictures of each of my cats, which I loved . I’m very pleased with her service and will definitely be inviting her back for future pet sitting needs.”
“Angela was beyond wonderful. Our cat, Mina, has medical needs which make it a challenge for others to watch her. Angela went above and beyond in helping her feel comfortable and was able to tend to her needs. She truly cared for Mina as if she were her own. Could not recommend Angela more. ❤️”
About: I have helped with puppy training all the way up to senior dog care. I have experience with socializing anxious dogs, leash training, and behavioural issues. I work from home with a flexible schedule for taking care of your pets. I can be available for evenings or most weekends as well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will always try to add exercise and fun into our time together, in whatever way is best for them. Whether that’s outside of your home in your neighbourhood/yard or with toys in your space!
“Sabrina is hands down the best sitter. Her love towards our fur baby makes us feel comfortable when we leave town. Sabrina is very reliable and trustworthy. Great communication skills as well! We will always book Sabrina as we will not trust anyone else. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby!”
“Yunni is amazing!! She is compassionate, patient, very experienced with cats and took good care of my two babies. One of them is usually shy and afraid of strangers but Yunni managed to earn his trust on the first day! She provided daily updates to me and it's lovely to see how my cats started bonding with Yunni. THANK YOU!”
“Esther did a great job looking after our two cats while we were away. She is a competent and conscientious sitter and even gave Jasper his pill. The cats both liked her and I felt very comfortable knowing that Esther was looking after them. I wouldn't hesitate to engage her again.”
“It was my 3rd times for booking Nicole, she is very responsive and flexible.. when i get urgent things, she can go to my home and taking care my pet immediately.. I’m comfortable leaving my cat with Nicole.. will book her for my next trip”
“Frederica took great care of my cats during her drop-in visits. My cats are pretty low-maintenance, but needed some company. Frederica not only took care of basics, but took the time to coax my shy guy out of hiding, play with my outgoing kitty, and send me loads of cute photos and videos. I'll definitely look her up the next time we go on a trip!”
“I cannot recommend Jiaying enough! She was incredibly attentive and careful with my pets during my 45-day trip back home. Every day, she sent me plenty of photos and detailed updates, so I always knew my pets were happy and well taken care of. She’s truly reliable, patient, and gentle with animals, and her loving care gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My pets were clearly comfortable and happy with her, which meant everything to me. I will absolutely book her again and strongly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, responsible, and loving pet care.”
“This was our first time with a pet sitter and the experience with Anita was amazing. She really knows what she is doing and took care of my cat. I really appreciate her service.”
“Jason (Hei Long) provided the best cat drop in visits, each visit i received lots of photo updates of all the tasks and of my cat! I had full peace of mind she was being taken care of when I was away. Thanks Hei Long for taking the best care of Billie, i hope to contact you for my next trip away!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a young girl and absolutely love being around animals of all kinds. Growing up with both dogs and cats taught me how to understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's pet sitting, dog walking, or drop-in visits, I’m here to give your furry friend the love and attention they deserve. I treat every pet like family and will make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a big part of my daily life. I'm currently available full time as I’m in between jobs and actively seeking a new full-time position. That means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet’s needs—whether it's daily visits, extended stays, or last-minute care. With my own pets at home, caring for animals is already a natural part of my routine, and I love being able to help other pet owners feel at ease when they're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their comfort, safety, and happiness come first. In your home, I make sure to stick to your pet’s usual routine—meals, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own environment, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they’re relaxed while you're away. I always respect your home, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you know your pet is in good hands.

Silvia is absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of Coco, and it was a huge relief knowing my cat was in such capable and loving hands. She is incredibly thorough, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure everything is handled with care. I couldn't have asked for a better person to look after Coco, highly recommended!
Alaia provided exceptional service. She was professional, patient, and took wonderful care of my two cats. She truly went above and beyond—even when my cats made a mess and damaged things in the house, she willingly helped me clean up and take care of everything. I’m very grateful for her help and would absolutely ask her to look after my cats again the next time I travel. Thank you so much, Alaia!
Ari was able to accommodate our request for drop-in visits to our cat on a very short notice. She followed the instructions closely, was very gentle and attentive to our shy kitty, and shared detailed updates and pictures from the visits so we never felt worried. Thank you so much!
Steffany is a kind, caring and incredibly patient person. She took the time to help my nervous cat accept her, gave him as much love as he allowed, and sent me detailed updates that helped me be able to relax on a week-long trip. She was flexible when my schedule shifted last minute, and courteous in every interaction. I will absolutely be contacting her again in the future.
Andrei did a drop-in visit for my cat, Priscilla, and I had a great experience! He was reliable, communicative, and took the time to make sure she was happy and comfortable—not just fed and on his way. I really appreciated the updates and photos, and it gave me peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Ashley really is the best. We had a trip booked. And and a few weeks before one of our cats was diagnosed with diabetes, so would need insulin And then a few days before we were leaving our other cat had a weird rash and had be on antibiotics and a cream. But no fear, we had nurse Ashley. I was sad to leave them, but knew they were in good hands with Ashley. And then certainly were. Thanks again Ashley
Jason (Hei Long) provided the best cat drop in visits, each visit i received lots of photo updates of all the tasks and of my cat! I had full peace of mind she was being taken care of when I was away. Thanks Hei Long for taking the best care of Billie, i hope to contact you for my next trip away!
I know my kitty cats would be in good hands as soon as I met Sin Man the first time. She is thoughtful, reliable, and most importantly, really cares about animals. She asked and wrote down every single detail about their habits, toys, emergency vet number beforehand She knows which one is whom since the first day, many people think they are twins regardless. One of my cats have asthma, and unfortunately had one coughing episode during her visit, she described in detail and recorded his breathing patterns, stayed longer just to make sure he was chill and doing okay again. She really calms me down when she kindly offers she could drop by to check in on my boys whenever needed. Words literally failed me and if there was six stars to rate I would definitely give her without a blink of my eye.
Lisa and Ben were great with our cat during their visits. She’s usually pretty wary of strangers, but at the meet and greet she walked right up to them, which made us feel really comfortable right away. Lisa was very thorough, spending quality time with our cat each visit and sending lots of photos and videos. This really reassured us that our cat was being well taken care of. Would definitely book with them again!

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.

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.
