About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. I grew up with a a good mixture of animals, and am comfortable with pretty much any animal. I have 20 plus years of experience working in an animal hospital. I do work 8 hour days, but am flexible before and after work. I currently work full-time, but my day is done at 4pm so I can do before work, and after work. If you are local I would also be able to do a mid-day walk, drop in etc. I am fully comfortable with exotics,avian & reptiles as well. I can also administer medications or anything that has to be given daily. I unfortunately would not be able to board any dogs or cats at my house, as I currently have 3 dogs who don’t love visitors staying. I would however be able to board a bunny, bird, ferret, any reptile or exotic animal. I have a separate room that’s completely safe for housing upstairs.
About: I have nearly 40 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including 13 years with my own two dogs, who are now seniors. I've also completed the American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid course to be better prepared for pet emergencies. I regularly care for a neighbor's dog during the week and am comfortable with multiple dogs, different personalities, and established routines. As a Rover customer myself, I understand how important reliability, clear communication, careful attention to instructions, and reassuring photo updates are when someone else is caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends and many holidays, and my current schedule is flexible enough to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I’m also open to recurring weekly care and try to work around each pet’s established routine whenever possible. I’m very conscientious and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet and home seriously. I follow instructions carefully, pay close attention to details, and keep each pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I double-check things like doors, gates, leashes, food, and water, and I’ll contact you if anything seems unusual rather than making assumptions. You’ll also receive clear updates and photos after each visit.
About: I own a Husky mix named Prisma who is turning 3 this year. She is quite energic and also epileptic. She is my daily experience. However I have sat for dog a bit bigger and much smaller! That includes Shihztus, Rottweilers, Golden Retrievers, Corgis, and Border Collies. I'm patient and responsible. My goal in any work field, but especially with your loved ones and possessions, is being reliable and communicating. This is what I find in my experience to be key for providing the best care and peace of mind. I work full time as a receptionist Mon - Fri, 8 to 4:30. This provides a lot of morning visits and overnight potential. Evening walks would works great as well. For specific requests, I can even dip into PTO to make the right situation work if a mid day visit is required during the work week. My Saturdays and Sundays are fully open at this time. I'm very patient and observant when interacting with pets of different personalities. Once informed on how you'd like your loved one to be cared for, I will do so in that manner. An obvious statement, but you'd be surprised how important that is to be said. If unsure or uncertain of care, we can brainstorm together as well to make sure I'm the correct sitter for the job.
About: I have loved animals all my life. I think they really are a part of a family, and they deserve to be absolutely spoiled and shown all the love they can take I am self-employed so I have a very flexible schedule. I don’t work a regular 9 to 5 so I am home longer than the average person I make sure to take care of all of their needs. Make sure they are fed, always have water, entertained, played with, loved on and completely taken care of
“Jolene went above and beyond for my cat Princess. Just like her name she can be a lot to handle sometimes but Jolene really saw through to all of it. First of all, she took my booking even though I was booked for the same day. This was my first time using rover and the first time Princess has been away from me, but Jolene told me how everything works and made sure I was more than comfortable. When I got to her home I forgot Princess’ food due to how last minute everything was and Jolene went out and bought my baby some food. She had a whole room set up for Princess with toys and made it so easy for Princess to adjust to the environment. I got multiple videos, pictures and messages Of Princess and how she was doing/adjusting. She spent time with her! I genuinely could not have asked for anyone more helpful, understanding and caring. I couldn’t thank her enough for everything she did over the past 7 days and I am more than happy with this experience.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for pets with all different personalities, ages, and needs. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, and once I was old enough, I rescued, raised, and trained two puppies of my own from just 8 weeks old. That experience taught me the patience, consistency, attention, and responsibility that go into giving an animal the care they truly need.I’ve also had the privilege of caring for my parents’ senior Great Dane, who weighed approximately 130 pounds and was diagnosed with cancer. As he reached the later stages of his life and became unable to walk on his own, I helped provide the extra patience, attention, and hands-on care he needed to remain comfortable and feel loved. That experience taught me that caring for an animal isn’t always about the easy or playful moments—it’s about being there for them through every stage of life and making sure they always feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m not a “one-size-fits-all” sitter. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes each pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. Whether they need plenty of exercise and playtime, a consistent routine, extra patience and attention, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m prepared to give them the care they need. I work from home Monday through Friday until 4:30 PM, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care before and after my workday. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care outside of my working hours, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual schedule and needs. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my priority is keeping them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I take the time to follow their usual feeding, potty, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime schedules so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll give them plenty of attention and companionship, while also respecting their space and personality. Since I work from home, I’m able to spend a lot of time with them throughout the day when I’m not working, rather than simply stopping in for a quick visit. I’ll also keep your home clean and cared for, and provide regular updates so you know how your pets are doing. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, relaxed, and well loved in the comfort of their own home.

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. 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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
