“Our 2 cats, Phoebe and Finn loved having Katharine stop in to take care of them. They were given treats, brushed, and fed. They had their pictures taken and sent to us. They even asked when we were leaving again -- just kidding about that! Katharine sent us notes daily about how they were doing. Made my trip more relaxing knowing they were well taken care of. Will definitely have Katharine here again. Thank you, Katie!”
“Cheryl is very personable, friendly and amazing with cat. She took great care of my 15 y/o senior kitty who required daily medications. My cat feels very comfortable around her. Grateful to have found her. Highly recommended!”
“Amazing sitters, we're truly grateful to have found them for our senior cat who's on daily meds. Sumi & Sohail show excellent & genuine care for our furry kid. Great communication, detailed reports for each visit. We cannot ask for more. They truly made us at ease while away. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with two wonderful dogs and I’ve raised my three cats since they were kittens, so I understand just how much care, patience, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. They’re part of my family, and I treat every animal I care for with that same level of love and respect. I also really enjoy spending time with pets and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or more laid back and cuddly, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide reliable, attentive care for your furry loved ones! I work full time remotely, so as long as I can bring my laptop I can work from anywhere with wifi. I take frequent breaks so I can play with and give your pets plenty of attention. I take careful attention to detail when it comes to care instructions and the things that make every pet unique. I’m very flexible and adaptive; always happy to accommodate their needs.
About: I’ve taken care of many pets! From dog to tarantula I’ve had them all. I’ve handled the stubborn breeds like bull terrier to the loving breed like Labradors. I’ve raised multiple kitten litters and helped them get adopted out and took in many strays. I treat every animal as my own. Im available every week day after 8am! If im needed earlier I can make it work as well. My schedule may be more open soon depending on jobs. Pet care come first for me so no need to worry about anything preventing me from that. I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in dog park. I do live in an apartment complex so room isn’t as spacious as a house.
“It was our first time using Rover and we have a cat that needs daily medication. Kayla kept us informed of how our pets were doing on a daily basis and we could see from our cameras our cats looked forward to seeing her! I have no reservations about hiring Kayla again.”

“Juliana boarded my cat Pistachio for a few days. Everything went great. She sent pictures throughout and drop off and pickup were quick and painless. Will definitely book her services again.”
About: I have long-time experience caring for cats, and have cared for them most of my life. I am also experienced with dogs; I work part-time at a dog daycare doing pet transportation, boarding, and watching the daycare, which includes walks, feeding, playtime, and medication administration. I am detail oriented and always put the pet's comfort as a top priority. I am currently between full time employment and graduate school, meaning my days are completely flexible. I can come as early as 7am and as late as 10pm. I take entering people's homes seriously and want to leave the space better than how I found it. I will bring some of my own supplies to increase bonding with the dog or cat.
About: Hello! I’m a recent college graduate and a devoted pet lover working from a home office. I offer reliable, flexible, and high-quality care for your furry family members, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and entertained while you are away. My Pet Care Experience My passion for animal care is rooted in a lifetime of experience with both dogs and cats. I am currently the proud owner of three cats with unique needs: Stomy (my rescued Orange Tabby) taught me patience, Sheba (my Highlander Lynx) keeps me active with high-energy play, and Atticus (my Siamese) taught me the importance of constant social engagement. In addition to my cats, I have extensive experience with dogs. Until recently, I was a dedicated owner to three rescued dogs who passed away peacefully last year. Caring for them, especially in their golden years, gave me deep experience with senior pet care, administering medication, and providing the gentle, compassionate support that older or shy animals need. Whether you have an energetic puppy or a slow-moving senior, I have the hands-on experience to make them feel safe and comfortable. Services & Activities I Provide When I visit your home, my goal is to keep your pet's routine consistent and stress-free. My drop-in visits and house-sitting services include: * Feeding & Hygiene: Adhering strictly to feeding schedules, refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and picking up waste. * Enrichment & Exercise: For cats, this means interactive play to burn off energy. For dogs, this includes stimulating walks, fetch, or backyard playtime. * Safety & Home Care: As a pet owner, I am hyper-aware of "door dashers." I practice strict safety protocols when entering and exiting to prevent escapes. I also bring in mail, water plants, and ensure your home is left tidy and secure. * Updates: You will receive detailed updates and high-quality photos after every visit, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. My Schedule & Availability Because I work remotely from my home office, my schedule is my biggest asset for your peace of mind. Unlike sitters with rigid 9-to-5 commutes, I have open flexibility throughout the day. * I can easily accommodate mid-day drop-ins, early mornings, or evening visits. * I am available for last-minute requests if your plans change. * I have the time to stay a little longer if your pet seems lonely or needs extra cuddles. I understand that inviting a sitter into your home requires a great deal of trust. I treat every pet I meet with the same affection I give my own crew, and I treat your home with the utmost respect. My schedule: FLEXIBLE I currently work remotely from my home office, providing me with open availability throughout the week. Because I am home-based, I am highly reliable and able to commit to specific time slots that suit your pet's feeding and medication schedule. I have the freedom to step away from my desk to ensure your pets get the quality time and attention they deserve, exactly when they need it. Safety begins the moment I unlock your door. As a cat dad to three active felines, I am hyper-aware of "door darters" and curious paws. I practice a strict "look down before you step" policy and always double-check that doors and windows are securely latched before leaving. inside the home, I keep a close eye on your cat’s health and mood, ensuring they are eating, using the litter box normally, and engaging comfortably. I also make sure to leave your home exactly as I found it—tidy, secure, and peaceful.
“Briete was wonderful! She was so good with my dog. This was my first time with her and I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup in her care. She is very warm and helpful, I’d definitely recommend her and call her again!”

Kristen was wonderful! She went above and beyond the tasks we gave her. She stayed with our kitties and was so considerate when she noticed that a critter got into our garbage bags. She did not have to clean the mess up but she did anyway. Being a first-time Rover user, Kristen put our minds at ease when we were so stressed out this past weekend. We will definitely call her back again! Thank you so much Kristen ❤️

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.
