“Katelyn was very attentive to our two cats, and was willing to deal with special diets for both of them, as well as medication for our older cat. She was very respectful of our home and easy to communicate with, responsive, and sent us lots of great and helpful pictures. We would definitely like to have her back the next time we need someone to watch the cats!”
“Simone was wonderful with my 2 cats! She spent lots of time with them to make sure they had human interaction and even gave one of my cats oral medication with no problem. She even did a few extra tasks that I didn’t request, but greatly appreciate. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Kristelle was super awesome and took good care of our 3 cats while we’re away for a week! She’s easy to provide instructions with considering we’re her new clients in such a short notice. Will definitely ask her again to look after our furbabies next time!”
“Briaunna was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of our cats, kept us updated with all the small details about what was going on, and our cats loved her. Trustworthy, reliable, and an excellent communicator.”
“We had Emily over for the first time. We were very impressed. It’s difficult to come into a strange house with three cats that don’t know you. She paid meticulous details to my cats and their needs. It is obvious she loves animals. She went above and beyond in care for our cats and our home. We were reassured with a lot of pictures all throughout our vacation. Highly recommended.”
“Angel is the best and takes great care of my babies! I normally do drop ins but this time was cat/house sitting and my cats enjoyed having Angel there to keep them company!”

I am currently working part time doing instacart so I am on the road and can stop whenever I need to let them out or take them on a walk.

About: I'm Lydia, I have knowledge on different breeds and temperaments, body language, schedule and structure, positive reinforcement and redirection.

Daily exercise is important as well, and I understand different pets have different activity needs. I tailor my care to the needs of the pet. What does their daily schedule look like? What do they enjoy? My goal is to make sure their life feels as normal as possible while their pet parents are away.
“This was my first time booking with Ukaesia, so of course I was a little nervous leaving my cat, Mickey, alone for 5 days. But what a relief; Ukaesia did an outstanding job! 😻 It started with her being available, on short notice, to being available when I needed to extend my travel plans. She was dependable, visiting Mickey every day at the same time. She seemed patient with my scaredy-cat and always provided good pictures of her visit. I definitely recommend Ukaesia for your pet sitting needs as I look forward to rebooking with her for my next travel needs. Thank you, Ukaesia, for making this first visit so seamless! 🐾”

“Bre rooked really good care of our kitties. Even though it was a last minute request, she accommodated setting up a last minute meet n greet and looking after my kitties. She provided several updates, pictures and loved on them while we were away. I would definitely recommend her to any pet owners looking for a pet sitter.”
“It was a great experience using Dorothy to check on our cats while we were away. Our cats are very shy, but she was able to coax one out a little more everyday, and by the end there were full blown belly rubs happening.

This is the second time I booked Simone. I just would like to add that not only she is great with my kitties but she also helped revived one of my sad eggplants. 🙏 i have a couple plants in my garden, and she and her daughters happily watered them during her check ins. I appreciate you Simone and your girls! Hope to work with you again in the future.
Kristine did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with each visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our cats were well cared for, and everything at home was in great condition when we returned. We really appreciated her help and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

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.
