“Jennifer was great with our pup!! She has an amazing and huge backyard where the dogs could race around. She was very attentive to our concerns and great with our dog. We are leaving on trip and will be boarding her with Jennifer for a week and trust that she is in good hands.”
“Tracy really helped us out by accommodating our dog who was still healing from surgery. My husband also had long hours for work while the rest of the family was away. We are very happy to have found you. Thanks for taking such great care of our dogs!”

About: Hi, my name is Kelsey! I am a mom of three wonderful kids and have decided to make a little money by doing what I love, caring for pets. I work as a real estate agent so my hours are very flexible. As someone who has needed to rely on someone to care for our pets while we are gone, I understand the importance of finding a loving and trustworthy person. I would love to care for your pets and give them a comfortable home. My first job was a vet assistant at an animal hospital and was then promoted to a receptionist. I've worked with all types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering pets from PAWS and learned to love animals from a young age. I've had my beautiful German Shepherd for 10 years and two fun kitties for over 12 years. I would be happy to board your pet in our home. We treat every pet as our own and hope to make our home an extension of yours. Every animal is treated with care and will get tons of love from my kids. Your pets safety and happiness is my number one priority when they are in my care. We have a large yard with a dog run that is fully fenced. We will never leave your pet outside alone and if they are wounders they will be on leash. I'm currently a full time mom and real estate agent. My day is very flexible and I am home either with my kids or working. I have a fully fenced dog run which my dog loves to dig holes in and play. When your dog his in our home, we treat them as our own. They get the run of the house and just spend time with us.
“Darshana is an amazing dog sitter! I am very overprotective dog mama and I was super nervous about leaving my fur baby with just anyone. However, after meeting her I could tell she truly loves dogs and I know I am leaving my Kiki in great hands. Darshana is constantly sending me photos/updates throughout the day and I love that I never have to ask. When left for doggy daycare she even takes Kiki out on walks. Kiki is lucky to have such an attentive sitter watching over her. My work schedule is very long and appreciate the special accommodations that Darshana makes for us. Kiki always leaves happy and tired. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Kiki! I will continue to use you for daycare and future boarding services. Highly recommend!!!”
“Exceptional service! We left our German Shepherd puppy ( 6 months) in Mounica's care and he was always happy when we picked him up! She sends pictures and videos during he day which is very thoughtful. Simba had a backyard to play in and made friends! Would 100% recommend her 🙌 the first meet and greet session was also very thorough and she asked us lots of questions to ensure Simba is taken care of. We are very happy with her services. Thank you!!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **Fantastic Experience with Priyanka!** We had a wonderful experience using Priyanka for doggy daycare! She was incredibly nice, super responsive from the very first message, and has a great backyard that is perfect for dogs to run around and play safely. Our pup, Melly, had the absolute best time. Priyanka was sitting another dog that day, and Melly played nonstop all day with her new furry friend! Priyanka’s own dog also got along beautifully with Melly, which made it such a fun, stress-free social experience. Melly had so much fun that when we showed up in the evening to pick her up, she didn't even want to leave! We couldn't ask for a better sign that she was happy and well-cared for. We highly recommend Priyanka to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!”
“Tunyi took such wonderful care of our dog! I felt very comfortable leaving him with Tunyi- she was amazing with communication and updates so I could rest easy knowing he was in good hands. My dog thoroughly enjoyed himself and can’t wait to go back!”
“Alexandra was an awesome sitter for my dog Spike. She is highly communicative and professional. Spike had a great day and got along so well with Alexandra and her daughter. She took him on 2 walks and made sure he was fed and content. I absolutely recommend Alexandra for boarding and dog sitting and I will be booking her again!”
“We’re so glad we came by Anita! She accepted our request quickly, throughout the day we get many pictures of Louie clearly having a fun time in Anita’s home. She has a good sized fenced yard so he was able to run around, and she took him for a 45-min walk so Louie came home a calm doggo 😁 She also accepts at most 2 dogs at a time so I know she’ll have time to care for them thoroughly. For sure we will send Louie to Anita again in the future.”
“Manisha is a wonderful caregiver! My dog is very shy in new situations but she was patient and kind, and after one day he was pulling me to the door at drop off in his excitement to get there. She sends pictures and videos so I know my furboy is having a great time. I am thrilled to have found Manisha and highly recommend her.”
“Whenever we drop off our baby Mochi, we feel that he is safe and well looked after. We love that he meets new friends and we often receive photos from Sukanya. We highly recommend Sukanya, Tanoy, and even Husku! 🐻❄️💙”
“Marlene is someone I trust to take good care of my dog. She took care of my sweet Potato for three days and he came home happy and tired from all the play with other dogs. It is nice to know he is in good hands with Marlene.”
“Frankie loved spending time with Aein and Felfel. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Aein gave updates everyday with videos and photos. I could tell Frankie was completely comfortable and was having a great time. I had no worries and know that with Aein, Frankie is well taken care of. I highly recommend Aein to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.”

Words can't express how grateful I am to have found Jennifer. We needed a sitter at the last possible minute, and she was a total lifesaver. She took such wonderful care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease being away from him. She was great at keeping me updated and sent a lovely picture that made my day. She is truly a caring and fantastic pet sitter! Highly recommend!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Cathcart commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 3,486 sitters in Cathcart, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
