“Very thoughtful and patient with Mischka, who is reactive and can be a handful sometimes. I really appreciated the photo of him going potty since I worry that he won’t get it done with a stranger. But he did! What a relief! Thank you so much!”

“Callie takes such good care of our pets! She always fits us in last minute and goes above and beyond. You can tell she really cares about making sure our pets (dog & cat) are well cared for in our absence. Even our shy kitty came to greet her.”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors’ dogs for years, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care. I also have a Yorkie of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ve dog sat for friends with both big and small dogs, as well as cats, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and my genuine enjoyment of spending time with animals, especially on long walks where dogs get to explore, exercise, and have fun. I currently attend community college four mornings a week, which means I’m free most of the day for pet care. This gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and extended care. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they get the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise through walks and outdoor time, and I give lots of attention, affection, and positive reinforcement. For cats, I provide calm care, feeding, litter maintenance, and gentle interaction at their comfort level. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always know how their pet is doing.

“Laura was a wonderful sitter for our kitty. She was extremely communicative, gave us real-time updates on her timing and the visit, and left a great summary of her visit and how our kitten was doing with a number of photos. Laura is responsible and responsive and clearly a real lover of animals. We'd recommend her to any caring pet owners!”

About: I work as a veterinary assistant ( an unlicensed veterinary technician) at a local veterinary clinic and have been in the field for the last ten years. I graduated in 2012 from Shasta College with a associates in veterinary technology. Previous to that I have owned my own dogs and cats and volunteered at the local shelter where I grew up, as well as working as a dog walker. Animals are my passion and their care is my number one goal. I can give any medications needed including injections, and am able to prep any special needs diets. For house sitting I am able to water gardens or lawns, collect mail and some basic house cleaning. I currently have a senior black lab border collie cross named Tank and a young cat named Queen Sparkles. I currently work full-time at a local veterinary clinic, which gives me a consistent routine. My professional schedule allows me to be available for boarding and house-sitting on weekends, as well as afternoon and evening visits on weekdays starting after 6:00 PM. For drop-ins and walks, I typically operate within a 1-to-2-hour window of your preferred time to ensure every pet gets the focused attention they deserve. While I am often home, I ask that pets be comfortable staying alone for up to 4 hours so I can tend to other clinic duties or errands." As a Veterinary Assistant with 15 years of experience, safety is my absolute highest priority. My clinical background means I am trained to read animal body language, identify early signs of illness or distress, and respond effectively in emergency situations. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard and use slow, supervised introductions with my own pets when boarding to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Whether in your home or mine, I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment and strictly follow all feeding, medication, and leash-safety protocols. You can expect consistent photo and text updates so you never have to worry about your pet’s well-being.

I have many references, I like to get in get the job done and get out🫡

About: I have had experience with feeding my friends and neighbors cats when they were away on vacation, but nothing professional. I do not have any training skills, but have dealt with temperamental cats who do not like sharing their space. I have had dogs and cats in my family since I was a child. We had small dogs as well as medium/large dogs and cats. I currently have 2 cats at home! I work full time Monday - Friday so this would be causal meetings and walks. I can feed them dinner or hang with them on week nights. That could be playing with them at their home, taking them to a dog park, or taking them for a walk. My weekends are wide open and I can hang out with your little dude whenever you need :). Unless otherwise specified in my schedule! I live in a one bedroom apartment that is quite spacious with a patio. There are cat toys and scratch posts everywhere. The patio is a catio, which is equipped with cat towers and cat grass. I play fetch with my tempermental boy because it gets his energy out very quickly and he LOVES it. My girly girl is very easy and plays with almost anything. I am more than happy to play with your kitty however they would like. For dogs, I will hang out and play with them at their house or take them to a dog park to get fresh air and more room to run. Fetch is a favorite as well as tug of war! I can take them on long walks around the neighborhood or the beach if the owner is ok with that!

About: I have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember, including behavior and training. I believe that every dog is a good dog. I began my career in animal care at an exotic pet shop in my teens. Between retail gigs, I had the privilege of working at a rescue shelter and a zoo, where my passions for animal conservation and welfare continued to grow. After that I spent some time in the veterinary field, where I gained valuable experience as a veterinary assistant. It was working in the veterinary field where I really got to pursue my passion for working gently with anxious and "aggressive" animals. Due to some physical limitations, I am not able to work full-time anymore, so I am now taking time to focus on what I really love to do, which is making pet and owner's lives easier. In my free time, I love to crochet, play video and borad games, and go on hikes with my partner. I am currently available full time to walk, sit, or drop-in on your pet! I can make most days and times work. Let me know what you need. I am not able to host for pet-sitting currently, per my lease at my current living arrangement, but I am available to stay in the pet owner's home if requested.
“Another terrific set of services from Denise while we were on vacation. All went well and smoothly. Denise sent us pics, which our other pet-sitter did not, and we enjoyed (and felt comforted) seeing that all was well while we were away. Thanks for your help, Denise!”


About: I grow up with dogs and pets in my home and animals have always been a big part of my life. Having had a senior dog myself has taught me a lot so I have a lot of experience administrating medications and routines. But also we now have a puppy that is full of energy and have a very different and varied personality and routine. I had the opportunity to work with all types of dogs and cats. From all ages and breeds. I’m a full time dog sitter and I love it. So when I have a booking and spend all of my time with them, walking, playing, training, napping, meals, etc. I love go take pictures and videos that I send my clients so they can see what I’m doing. I have a puppy of 6 months that it’s super sweet and loving. He will make sure your dog has an amazing play time with us. We live in front of a park that is perfect for walks and play time.

Hannah was great! She took wonderful care of our little crew, followed all of our instructions, and sent us pictures and updates along the way. She was super easy to communicate with and very professional, and we really appreciated her helping us out on such short notice. We’d happily have her watch our animals again and definitely recommend her!

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.

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 .
