“Katie was super friendly and all of our fur babies loved her! The update photos she sent each day of them were so cute and it really put my mind at ease while we were away. She deserves more than 5 stars!:)”
About: Hi there! I’m Grace. Me and my husband just moved to Maine this year, and we love it here! Before the move, I worked at a natural pet food store because of my passion for animals and all things holistic wellness. I also regularly pet sat, mainly through word of mouth referrals, so I’m somewhat new to Rover. I grew up caring for my family dogs and cat, as well as volunteering at the local shelter, which often led to fostering kittens. I previously worked as a professional dog handler at Free Spirit Doggy Daycare where there were often 50 plus dogs to take care of at a time. Me and my husband now have a rescue dog and two cats of our own who are my whole world! In my free time, I’m usually spending time with them, baking, hiking, or volunteering at a horse farm down the road. I’m looking to provide check ins and/or walks for your furry friend anytime they need some extra attention. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats (& more!) with extra needs such as severe anxiety or medical conditions that require medications. I understand that our pets are our family! I will treat your babies with all of the love and care that I would want my own to receive. I currently have a fairly open schedule throughout the week. I will be traveling some the end of this month (October) and in November but after that won’t be traveling for a long time, as I’ll be having a baby in March. We have a lab mix who enjoys our 3 acres, and two indoor cats who enjoy our window ledges, and playing with anything they decide is a toy. Every pet is different but for our guys, I find that as long as they have plenty of exercise, brain stimulation, good food, and time with me and my husband, they’re happy as can be. Lots of “behavioral” issues tend to actually be boredom, which is remedied with things like walks and brain stimulating play, or it could also be medical.
“Eliot was communicative and flexible with our plans. We had some initial concerns about our cat with Eliot’s dogs but she put those concerns at ease. Her pups did great and so did our cat with them. We’ll certainly be leaning on Eliot again next time we travel. Thank you!”
“Carla provided exceptional care for our cat during our 2-week trip. Communication was excellent and the daily photos of our cat assured us that all was well. Our cat is very emotionally expressive and she looked 100% happy to be in Carla's lap. We will definitely hire Carla again the next time we need a sitter.”

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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
