“Thank you so so much Erik for helping us out! you saved our day:) We're so happy you were able to attend to our little one and sent us the photos! Genuinely we appreciate your effort!”
“Shelley is amazing! She interacts with our dogs so good and dogs love her! Always sends us a video, plenty of pictures and makes sure to go above and beyond our requests! Anytime we can rebook with her, it’s no question to!”
“Trisha is dependable and cares about our kitties and they love seeing her. She anticipates what needs to be done and takes care of it. Without our mentioning it, Trisha gathered the trash and recycles and put out on our trash day. The house is kept clean and Trisha updates us daily. We are grateful for Trisha’s pet sitting service.”
“Jena is the BEST! She eased my anxiety while leaving my two month old kitten for the first time! Sent plenty of pictures and personalized messages during each drop in! Made it so much easier to enjoy my vacation and not have to stress or worry about my fur baby at home. Definitely will be using her again. ?”
“Avri was perfect for our little puppy!! She brought her 1 year old dog to socialize and even sent me pictures and video updates from their play time! We can’t wait to hire her in the future for our fur baby!”
About: I have grown up surrounded by my loving animals. Dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters just to name a few. I have worked in the past at a veterinary clinic as an assistant & I loved it. I have large dogs and a tiny Chihuahua so I understand the difference between the needs of various dogs. I have 4 cats and I absolutely adore them. Cats bring me so much joy! I am currently available anytime for your pet care needs! I am an early riser for anyone that needs early morning care. I can clean up after your pet, walk your dog, play fetch any & all needs to make your pet happy. Studies show even a 30 min walk helps prevent excessive boredom for your dog. I am able to provide long walks & play time for your pets. I can change & disinfect litter boxes. Play with your cats & love on them as much as they will allow!
About: I've been surrounded by dogs my entire life and truly can't imagine a home without them. My passion for caring for animals led me to start pet sitting during the COVID pandemic, and what began as a way to help friends and neighbors quickly grew into something I absolutely loved. Over the years, I've cared for pets with all kinds of personalities, needs, and routines. My experience includes overnight boarding, long-term stays, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, daily walks, grooming and bathing, and caring for recurring clients who became like family. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following any special instructions needed to keep your pet happy, healthy, and comfortable. A few years ago, I stepped away from pet sitting to focus on one of my children's health needs. Now that life has settled down, I've been excited to return to something I've genuinely missed—spending time with animals and helping pet owners have peace of mind while they're away. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Whether your dog loves long walks, endless fetch sessions, cozy couch cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own pets. I believe communication is key, so you can expect plenty of updates, photos, and check-ins while your pet is in my care. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! ❤️🐶 I just moved back up to cedar rapids and I am currently a PRN CNA where i choose the hours i would like to work and i also am a Wedding Coodinator on some weekends out of the year. My schedule is very open and flexible to whatever your needs are! I do live in a house now and while i dont have a fenced in yard, I live in a community where its safe to walk around and there are plenty of dog parks near by!
“Erin was amazing with our dog! She was extremely responsive and helped us with any questions we had for her! She also was willing to go the extra mile and travel a bit farther than other potential sitters. I will definitely hire her again and recommend Erin to others in need of a doggo sitter.”
“We could not have asked for a better pet sitter for Walter while we were away. Megan went above and beyond during every drop-in visit to make Walter and us feel comfortable. She made sure he was fed and cared for and also gave him genuine attention, playtime, and affection. We received thoughtful updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind on vacation. It was obvious how much she truly cares about animals, and Walter absolutely adored her. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
About: I have lots of puppy care experience, and I know how to take care of all types of breeds. I will make sure your animals are loved and treated like family! I work pretty much full time at a dog boarding/daycare facility, so I know how to take care of animals very well! I work every day except Saturday and Sunday, my shifts are usually no longer than 6 hours. I live in an apartment with lots of space, so I can accommodate a lot of different animals. Also a huge outside area where they can do their business and play!
“Ashleigh went above and beyond. We truly cannot say enough good words about our experience or her care. We needed help in the eleventh hour in order to go on our honeymoon. She was AMAZING and we could really enjoy our time away knowing she would take great care of our cat. He needs insulin every twelve hours and she never missed a single shot. She played with him, cuddled him and just overall did an excellent job. So flexible when certain needs changed and very understanding. We would 100000% book her again.”
About: Very experienced and knowledgable with dogs, cats, birds, horses, pocket pets and all types of farm animals. Can provide drop in visits for any house or farm and can take care of farm chores. Dogs staying at our house have access to the whole house, but can be kept separate from resident dogs if needed. Two 15-30 minute walks provided each day, both morning and night, possibly more depending on the dog and day. We are very active with our three dogs and any guests would receive the same care and attention as our own. We provide mental stimulation as well as physical, and daily obedience work is a part of our schedule. I am available for drop in visits.
About: I have worked for a pet care company as one of their most valuable and trusted caregivers. Working with dogs, cats, and other pets of varying sizes and temperaments. I am comfortable with any breed and don't discriminate based on breed. Something that I've been told by owners and coworkers alike is that I truly care for the animals and I take ownership of not only the care I provide but the pets wellbeing. Simply put I'll give your pet(s) the same love and attention you would. I'll go the extra mile to make sure that your pet is happy and healthy, and I'll make sure you always feel like you've got the best knowledge of what we've been up to. I have a love for animals that allows me to take care of even the less enjoyable parts of caring for them, and communication skills that will never leave you wanting for more. I work twelve hour shifts three days a week so I’m busy when I’m working those shifts but like to fill my days off from that with my pets and other people’s. I’m big on following whatever your routine is so there’s no question about how safe we’re staying and it makes for pets feeling much more settled and comfortable themselves.
“Ashleigh is an absolute delight! I Invited her into my home and put her in charge of Missy's care with all the confidence that Ashleigh will take great care of both. She is positive, delightful, caring, kind and considerate. I trust her with my most precious things! Thank you, Ashleigh.”
“I will definitely request Mira's help again - this was our first Rover experience, and she was a blessing. She went above and beyond by dropping by to meet Sam ahead of time so he wouldn't view her as an intruder. He's 90 pounds and we're still working on his puppy manners (like jumping and the occasional body slam), and she was competent and professional in taking him on. Mira dropped by twice as requested, took him for a walk, and sent plenty of photos so we could see he was having the best time with her. Highly recommend! Thank you, Mira!”
“Makenna is always so reliable and wonderful to our fur babies. Thank you for being so flexible around our schedules and we love your detailed updates while we are stuck at work.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Covington
Madison helped considerably to keep my cat from having additional surgery on an ear hemotoma. I have no experience with using a plastic cone used for pets who have surgeries. Madison was able to provide experience on how to use them and gave me education on how to put one on my cat myself. She also was able administer oral medications my cat needed for her recovery. My cat needs more time to recover, but I feel more confident with being able to care for her myself with the help of Madison.

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 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 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. 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, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Covington. On Rover:

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
