“Alexa is seriously the best sitter of all time! She took incredible care of my Bengal cat Noah. She is a true cat whisperer and she was so responsive, so caring, and would send me updates and photos. I have never trusted someone more to care for my baby cat. Do yourself a favor and book her!!”

About: Hi I’m Todd a recently retired professional looking to fill my schedule with caring for both dogs and cats. I have a very open schedule so no rushing off to an office or leaving your pet alone for long hours. I provide reliable, calm, and attentive care for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I am highly responsible, communicative, and ready to follow your pet's specific routine as needed. There are many paths around my house, which are great for walking dogs. I am not working so I am very flexible in terms of my schedule. I am usually available during most times of the day or even on short notice if needed. I live in a three level townhouse in Reston with a deck and a small backyard that backs to woods. I do not have any pets of my own, but several of my neighbors have pets.
About: I grew up with dogs and still love being a caregiver to this day. Currently, I am a regular dog-sitter for two families in Washington, D.C. who have dogs with special needs. I am also a regular dog sitter for my family in rural Pennsylvania so love taking long walks and exploring new places. I currently work from home full-time, but am a part-time graduate student as well. Generally, I am in my home all day but leave for occassional evening courses (no longer than 4-5 hours). Otherwise, I am flexible and have the ability to be present nearly all day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a fenced courtyard. While the dog will never be off-lease in this area, it is helpful for late night potty breaks and a little fresh air. I am .2 miles from the Bundi Dog Park which is open daily for 7 am - 7 pm. I am also able to travel to any area of D.C. due to my work schedule and flexibility so I can even watch your pet in your home! I also offer ALL the cuddles and plenty of love.

Allison was so great with our cats - responsive, communicative, and proactive! Couldn't ask for anything more in a cat sitter. We came home and our cats didn't seem desperately starved for affection, so I know they were in good hands with Allison when we were gone!
Fantastic as always. Being away from our furbabies is always hard but knowing Cliff is watching them is one less stressor off our checklist while we're away from our boys. We know they are well taken care of and loved. Cliff communicates beautifully and sends updates with each check-in with loads of pics and notes. Highly recommend like always! If you want your furbabies well taken care of, choose Cliff! Thanks Cliff!!!
Jennifer, You did an awesome job watching our senior cat, the fish and for sending us the photos every day. You were a reliable communicator, which was reassuring. Thank you for everything you did. Our cat looked happy in the photos you sent and was in great shape when we returned. We would definitely choose you to sit again. Thank you! -Emmitt’s family

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 .

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 .
