“Jazmine was wonderful with my two corgis. One of my dogs has terrible anxiety, but Jazmine was able to really help her stay calm and get through her scared moments. She also did some training for my younger dog. She was always punctual, a very good communicator, and handled herself professionally.”
About: I’m the mom to a cat named Zeppelin, a dog named Stevie and a horse named Cece. I successfully trained both Stevie and Zeppelin (yes you can train a cat!) myself and have dabbled in equine training as well. Being the guardian of a nervous, reactive pup, I pride myself on understanding animal behavior and dog body language. After bringing Stevie home, I was quickly thrown into the world of dog training and behavior modification out of necessity and I have a special place in my heart for nervous pups. I've even started training other people's dogs on the side! After training my own dog, I fell in love with the process and couldn't put it down! I’ve also worked in a veterinary office and feel confident in my abilities to keep your animals safe and know how to handle emergencies. I’m a lab assistant for an environmental toxicology lab and train dogs on the side. I am available for drop ins and walks in the late afternoon and evening most days as well as any time on Sunday’s. At this time I am not available for boarding or overnight stays. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own, all of mine are rescues that took time, patience and trust to get to where we are now. I understand that having a new person around might be scary for your pet at first but I look forward to building a relationship with them so we all feel safe and comfortable. Having a nervous, reactive dog and a nervous cat has taught me how to better understand dog and cat body language and to go at their own pace.
“Carol did a great job watching Buster. She's super reliable and really connects with dogs. Buster is a rather large dog, but Carol had no problems keeping him under control. I highly recommend Carol!”

“Our girls love Marion and so do we! She great with communication and great with our girls. She let us know when our hound was acting different and sent plenty of pictures so we got to see our girls. We’re happy to have someone we can trust with our girls whenever we need a sitter”
“Bri's communication was excellent through the whole process. She came by a day early for a meet and greet, which was most appreciated.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Del Rey Oaks
Andrea was amazing to work with as always! And it is clear that our cats love her too! She is incredibly responsive and follows (even my most ridiculous) directions to a tee! As someone who is very anxious to leave my cats, I always feel like they are in great hands with her and I wasn’t worried at all on my trip.
Flora took exceptional care of our two cats while we were away. She is professional, friendly, and an excellent communicator. She always arrives on time, and is flexible when situations arise. I highly recommend Flora as a pet sitter because she is trustworthy, responsible, responsive, friendly, educated, and an excellent communicator.
I had a wonderful experience with Katie dropping in to check on my cat Penelope. Katie’s communication kept me in the loop throughout the week, providing reassurance that Penelope was well taken care of and happy. I would absolutely recommend Katie to anyone with pets to care for, and will be using her again in the future.
Jessica was great with our two cats, would totally recommend her to a friend! This was our first time using Rover and she helped us through the process. We got to meet beforehand so she could get familiar with the cats and their specific needs. We always got cute pictures from each visit. Our cats loved her!

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.

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.
