“I felt totally confident in having Becky pet sit my 3 cats after meeting with her during our meet and greet. I am also a Rover pet sitter and have high expectations on how my cats are cared for and those expectations were met! Thank you Becky!”


“Jennifer was great. She checked in on my 2 cats each day while we were away. It was nice to see the updates she provided after each visit, letting me know how they were doing, the care she provided, and also sent me some cute photo's of my fur babies!”

“Courtney takes great care of our cat. She gives him lots of live and sticks to the feeding schedule. She also communicates well on every visit and gives advance notice of any changes to her schedule.”

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.
“Lauren was amazing! We were visiting from out of town and needed to find a dog sitter. Lauren was trustworthy, dependable, knowledgeable, kind and genuine. We needed drop-ins for 2 days and she sent me check-ins, pictures and videos. She loved on our pooch and even left us some dog treats after her last visit. So sweet! We highly, highly, highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I'm Ashley, a dedicated pet lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. Friends and family have trusted me for years to pet sit, whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just giving their pets the love and attention they deserve. I'm a proud dog mom to 3 girls, a 12 year old lab mix, a 4 year old yellow lab and a 3 year old lab/gsp, so I'm very comfortable with large, strong, and high-energy dogs. I understand their need for structure, exercise, and mental stimulation —and I'm always happy to keep up! I also have plenty of experience with puppies and know how important it is to be patient, consistent, and attentive to their unique personalities. My experience doesn't stop with dogs and cats-l've also cared for a bearded dragon and am confident in caring for yours whether it is a turtle/tortoise, fish or bearded dragon. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I have a flexible schedule on the weekends and plenty of availability to give your pet the time and attention they need. I also have a reliable vehicle, so I'm dependable and able to accommodate your needs. When your pet is with me, they'll be treated like family. I'll follow your routines closely to keep things consistent and stress-free, and your pet will get lots of love, playtime, and attention. I also make sure to keep you updated so you always feel connected while you are away. I work full time with weekends off, with my own adventures, I know how important it is to have someone to be able to check in on your pets. I want to be able to provide that for others. I will keep as close to their routine as possible. If I need to take them on a walk to potty or let them roam their own yard, I will do.
“Elizabeth was the perfect pet sitter for our cat who always hides from pet sitters. She made sure that she was eating, drinking and well each visit and even managed to snap a photo of the elusive creature-though blurry I could tell it was her! Thank you Elizabeth!”

“Tanya is extremely professional, has a great memory, very reliable, and is super patient with new animals. She watched our three cats while we were out of town for the week and gave them some company. On first meeting her, she asked great questions regarding personality types and general instructions, and talked us through her soft approach to meeting our animals. She assured us that she’d devote her whole reserved time to sitting with them and letting them get to know her presence. Her notes were thorough and reassuring. We were very happy with her and even our shy cats liked her and allowed her pets. Would highly recommend.”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feedings, administering medications, or just providing lots of love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and attentive when you’re away, and I take that responsibility seriously. From high-energy pups to senior pets needing extra TLC, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved. I also have experience with chickens if you need someone to gather eggs and keep an eye on food and water! Every pet has their own personality, so I love tailoring our time together to what they enjoy most! For playful pups, we’ll go on walks, play fetch, and have tug-of-war sessions to burn off energy. If your pet loves to cuddle, we’ll have plenty of cozy downtime and belly rubs. I also enjoy mentally stimulating activities like puzzle toys, basic training games, and scent work to keep their minds sharp. For cats, I bring out the feather wands, laser pointers, and all the chin scratches they can handle. Whether it’s adventure or snuggles, I’ll make sure your pet has a blast and feels loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure their environment is calm, secure, and stress-free. When checking on pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things clean and consistent to help your pet feel at ease. If caring for pets in my home, I make sure the space is pet-proofed, cozy, and full of enrichment. We have a 4 acre property that is fully fenced in so your pet will be safe and secure. I always monitor interactions closely, especially if there are multiple pets, and I never leave them unattended during outdoor time. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands.
“Carlie so AMAZING! She has watched over our kitty, Bean twice now and he was in good hands both times! Carlie is so caring and Bean looks so happy visiting with her!!! We highly recommend her when searching for a reliable, compassionate, and caring sitter for your furbabies!!”

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.

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 Meet & Greet .
