About: I’m a retired educator and animal lover with the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for my own animals for years, completed two long-distance puppy transports from DFW to Charlotte and Los Angeles, and have repeat sitting experience with my cousin’s two dogs. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and patient caring for your pets and home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles. I’m also comfortable giving basic medications if needed. What sets me apart is that I have the time to truly focus on your pets and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also believe good communication matters, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m retired, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet would receive lots of attention, companionship, and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily work around your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, or quiet time. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by keeping their routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I understand that trusting someone with both your pets and your home is a big decision. I will always treat your home with respect and care while making your pet’s safety and comfort my top priority. I pay close attention to routines, instructions, and any special needs to help pets feel secure and stress-free in their familiar environment. I’m dependable, calm, and attentive, and I believe in keeping owners updated with regular communication and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
“First time booking with Rover. There was so many to choose from but I think we picked the perfect match for Honey. Heather took care of her very well and put my worries to ease by having to leave Honey for a few days. Definitely recommend.”
“Desireé was Great!! Spent quality time and took some great photos to keep us updated on BOTH our babies. No issues or concerns in the slightest!! Will definitely reach out for any future needs!”
“Heather took such amazing care of our two babies while we were gone. I really appreciate all the updates, pictures and how gentle she was with them! I highly recommend her.”
“Lauren was amazing! Very friendly and loving on our 3 babies! Great communication, with detailed notes and pictures. Arrived on time for each drop in and met their unique needs. She even pivoted on the plan when the weather got too cold - thanks for looking out for them! 10/10!”
“Dear Alexandria, I just wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you for watching my two bulldogs. I truly appreciate you taking the time to care for them and give them the attention, love, and patience they needed while I was away. Knowing they were in good hands gave me such peace of mind. They can definitely be a handful sometimes, but you took great care of them, and I’m incredibly grateful. Thank you again for everything you did. It means more to me than you know, and I really appreciate having someone I can trust with my two babies! Sincerely, Michael and Terri”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I love going for walks with them and taking them for rides in my truck. I love finding new enrichment activities so they can use their brains in a different fun way. One of my favorite activities is to take them swimming I’m currently a domestic engineer with time to do drop in visits to your home. I am also available for dog walking weather permitting and house sitting on weekends and holidays. I will follow any directions and instructions you give for your animals and I will treat them the exact same way as I treat my own animals.
“Janelle did several drop in visits to check on my puppy while I was gone. She was so great! Very responsive to messages and provided updates and pictures while taking care of my pup. She”
“Alyssa took fantastic care of our dog. Our dog immediately warmed up. She went above and beyond playing with her and giving her attention. We will definitely be coming back to her when we need someone to watch our dog.”
“Amanda was wonderful and took such good care of my fur babies! Sha was always on time and sent pictures of her cuddle time with my Ellie. I'm definitely using her again, it's so nice to find someone to trust with your precious pets 💖”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and enjoy playing/walking with them! I currently have 2 amazing kitties that keep life interesting. I love animals and respecting their boundaries when shown. I hope to love your babies as much as I love my own! I am currently in school so afternoons/evenings are prime pet time! I have open Fridays and weekends for any needs you have! I've got you covered! I respect your pets' space and will act accordingly to any rules set. If needed I can grab food or other supplies so there are no worries. Any messes your pets may make, consider them taken care of!
“Lori is amazing! She is super sweet and super understanding. She did wonderful taking great care of my fur babies while away and messaged me letting me know how they are with pictures. One of my fur babies is timid with new people but she was able to get her very comfortable quickly. They are my babies so leaving them was so hard but she made me feel so much better about the whole process. Definitely recommend her and will definitely ask for her help in the future.”

Heather was very communicative and responsive with us while we were gone. She was even helpful with a small issue of ants we didn't know we had. Our cat was happy to see us back but wasn't neglected at all. We would totally request Heather again if/when the need comes!
Tayler was a literal life saver. We were out of town and needed new help with our two senior cats ASAP. Tayler was not only super responsive, but our kitties quickly took to her and responded so well to her care. It gave us such peace of mind. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their fur babies. We will be booking with her in the future. Thank you, Tayler!
Brandon did such a great job. I was so happy I chose him to take care of Gizmo. He kept me updated about everything and sent me great pictures every day. From the first time I heard from him, I knew I didn’t have to worry about Gizmo. When I got back from vacation, I knew Gizmo missed Brandon. I could also tell from the pictures I received that they were friends and had bonded! Brandon did a super awesome job! He will always be my choice when I go away! Thank you so much Brandon. You’re the best!
My booking was last minute and I wasnt able to get my usual sitter, however Heather saved rhe day. She did an amazing job with my babies! She made sure to keep in contact when she would be delayed even if by 1 hour. I really appreciated the open communication. The food area was clean and the litter box did NOT smell. Wonderful job! I will be using Heather again.
Alyssa took on our pets last minute after another sitter fell through on the same day! She was a life saver. We were so happy to have found her through Rover’s customer service and will be booking with her again for the future. She took care of our large dog and 2 cats and made sure they received all the lovings while we were gone. She kept our space neat and tidy after our pets would make normal pet mess like tracking dust and litter. Updates were great and our pets looked obviously happy in each picture.

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.

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.
