About: I hold a degree in Wildlife Conservation and Management and have hands-on experience working with a variety of animals, including reptiles, birds, rodents, and of course, cats and dogs. My background has given me a strong foundation in animal behavior, safe handling, and attentive care. I also previously volunteered at a cat rescue, where I helped with both routine care and medical tasks such as assisting with blood draws. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, exercise, or simply providing companionship, I bring a reliable and knowledgeable approach to caring for pets of all kinds I mostly work remotely from home, so I’m available to care for pets throughout the day. This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, playtime, and companionship. I do occasionally travel, but I always keep my schedule updated so pet parents know my availability in advance. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I ensure they are always in a secure environment; whether that means keeping a close eye on them during outdoor play, double-checking doors and gates, or following feeding and medication routines exactly as instructed. I respect each pet’s unique needs and comfort level, giving them the attention, enrichment, and calm environment they need to feel safe and happy. I also keep pet parents updated with regular check-ins and photos so they can feel at ease knowing their pet is well cared for.
“Katarina is incredible with our two rescues that can have abandonment problems. She sends such great pictures at every visit that shows how much our dogs love her. She’s quick to respond and helps with whatever the dogs need. She’s incredible!”
“Frances is incredibly kind and truly loves pets. She took wonderful care of ours, and her service was absolutely a 10/10. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”
“Lesly was the best!! I was truly nervous about the services at first but when I met Lesly and saw how she interacted with Baine my heart was at ease leaving for 10 days. We were able to see our boy everyday and that helped my anxiety as well. Thank you Lesly so much for everything!!”
About: I have been passionate about caring for animals from a young age, often taking in and helping stray cats whenever possible. I have an 8 year old Rat Terrier who is in excellent health. I manage his daily feeding, regular walks, grooming, and give him vet checks when needed. I have two cats that I rescued as strays, providing them with a safe and stable home. I also care for a bearded dragon, including maintaining her habitat and breeding Dubia roaches to ensure she has a consistent, nutritious food source along with her vegetables. Through these experiences I feel that I have developed strong skills in animal care and responsibility. I have an extremely flexible schedule as I do not have a full-time job and am trying to make pet sitting my main focus. Because of this, I’m able to work pet care into my daily routine pretty easily and can be flexible with different schedules and routines. I’m usually available throughout the day and have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need. I live in a pet friendly apartment with my own dog and cats, and I’m able to safely walk and care for pets without issue. I like to keep my home calm and secure for my animals, with close attention to their comfort, daily routines and habits. I also have experience managing behaviors such as stress chewing, and I use solutions like crate training when appropriate to ensure both the pet’s safety and the condition of the home. If similar situations occur while caring for a client’s pet, I am confident in my ability to respond responsibly and maintain a safe, clean, and supportive environment at all times.
“Jeanie made sure I was updated on our pups with each visit and sent photos/videos to help reassure me they were being loved on and played with at each visit. She was quick to respond to communications and in asking any questions to ensure she cared for Sophie and Duke well!”
“Skye Blue really enjoyed her first visit with Meagan. Thank you so much for making sure she was comfortable. Look forward to seeing you many more times. Thank you for the photos.”
“Noleen is absolutely amazing! She goes above and beyond with my kitties, and I am always so glad to know they are in good hands when I am away! I highly recommend Noleen to anyone who needs their fur babies taken care of!”
About: I've pet sat locally for dogs, cats, and even fish, and I have two mini dachshunds and a cat of my own. Being a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust. I treat every pet like family, stick to their routine, and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind🐱❤️ I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am typically free throughout the week as long as it does not clash with my work schedule. Your pets’ safety and happiness is my top priority. I always aim to making sure that my time spent with your animals is safe and full of fun!
About: I’ve taken care of animals even babies my whole life I even had pets of my own that I cared for very much I had a ferret that was loved by everyone in the house. The only schedule I have is that I can only work every weekday after 4 and every weekend I’m free at any time to work. For my ferret there were certain areas in the house she was not allowed in such as the washroom and the kitchen, those places for her was very dangerous we put up baby gates for her safety and for our concern
About: I was raised with cats and dogs. I read a dog training book when I was in high school. I have always been mission-oriented, and today's mission is to ensure your pets are looked after and that you are confident they are safe and healthy. My schedule revolves around animals. If I'm not spending time with my dogs, then it's my mom's dogs. If it's not her dogs, then it's chickens. (Dogs are more fun, have you tried playing fetch with a chicken?) I will care for your pets with the same love and affection I provide to my own dogs, excluding any rough-housing since my dogs tend to play quite boisterously. I will diligently follow all instructions to the best of my abilities and will communicate promptly if I encounter any difficulties, seeking an alternative solution.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
