About: I have a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to provide them with patience, attention, and a safe environment. I’m dependable, caring, and willing to take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I do have a grasp of understanding canine body language and when they’re comfortable vs uncomfortable. I also have a lot of experience with smaller fuzzy friends such as rabbits and hamsters as well! I currently am new to the area looking for employment, and am looking to start evening classes in January. Until then I have pretty good availability and flexibility for your furry friends. I can very much insure the security of leashes, collars and or harness for walks, as well as helping pups into crates if they’re crate trained at home. Helping younger pups learn with simple commands and positive reinforcement is also something I’m willing to do!
About: If your furbaby desires love and affection then we are it! I have to small children ages 9yrs old that love animals just as much. Plenty of snuggles to give as well as walks and playtime 🐶 I am currently at home and have time to provide the attention and needs that your furbaby requires. During the day my kids will be in school but after school, if your little one loves attention, playtime or a lap to snuggle on; we have you covered. I have to cats, one afraid of her own shadow and will sneak in to visit once in a while where the other cat is just curious and wants a friend. Both friendly and loving.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up in a home where pets were truly part of the family, and some of my favorite childhood memories are visiting the animal shelter with my mom—often leaving with a furry friend we would foster and love until we could help find them a forever home. That lifelong love for animals has followed me into adulthood. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets when you can’t be there. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I also have experience caring for senior pets and pets who require a little extra attention, including administering medications and following specific care routines. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. My goal is for you to be able to leave home knowing your furry family member is safe, comfortable, loved, and getting plenty of attention—and I’ll happily send updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing! We currently have 2 medium pups, Milo and Bear, along with 2 long hair cats, Phyllis and Everett. Don’t stress about them though. The fur adult cats own my son ;) so they hang with him in his room most of the time. Our other two pups love to play with other pups and are friendly. I am mostly available for dog walks or drop in visits and will be happy to accommodate boarding for families that need a quick trip or emergencies.
“Leanne is a wonderful sitter. She maintains a regular schedule with our older cat, which is so important to her. Leanne has been diligent and caring. We have had Leanne two times now, and I hope we'll be able to her many more times. My husband says, "Leanne is the best!"”

About: I have such a huge soft spot for cats! I love getting to know each cat personally. I have experience taking care of cats of different ages and personalities, including younger kittens who may need extra patience, attention and supervision. Currently, me and my roommates are taking care of 2 young kittens and 1 grown kitty :) I work a steady Monday through Friday, nine to five at the Georgetown Signarama. My weekends are always open! If needed, I can take off work early at 3pm. I help take care of two young kittens and a grown cat with my roommates currently. I can bathe, clean litter boxes, clean accidents and keep their spaces clean and comfortable.
About: I’ve been dog sitting, house sitting and dog walking for awhile up to weeks at a time. I enjoy being around all types of dogs small to big. I love getting all the puppy love!! I’m currently babysitting part-time but I can move my schedule around pretty easily and fast. I would like to pursue pet care part time as well! I have a fenced in backyard in a very quiet neighborhood. I have a dog myself. He is very lovable and doesn’t bother anyone. You tell me your feeding schedule and I will go along with it

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 .

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.
