About: I have taken care of animals my whole life! I have several years shelter experience, and during that time I worked hand-in-hand with veterinarians and dog trainers. I’ve always had a passion for dogs, and have two wonderful fur-babies at home. I’m currently available on Sunday, Monday, and Thursdays any time! On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I’m available after 3:30pm as well! Saturdays I am typically unavailable without notice. I love to care for pets, and am flexible to meet each one’s needs! Walks, play-time, enrichment, and lots of attention! I will make sure to adhere to whatever schedule your pup (or kitty) needs!

We were never able to leave for a trip anywhere without fretting about who would be able to care for the cats. I feel like a weight has been taken off my shoulders! We really appreciated the updates and photos Hayley sent throughout the week. It helped to alleviate any concerns. I would definitely use Hayley again and would recommend her very professional services without reservation.

Thank you for making me comfortable for leaving my dogs with someone other than my family for the first time ever. Especially with my one dog that takes meds on a schedule. My young dog and my older dog were in good hands. I appreciated the updates and pictures and updates. I will use Marissa again in the future. I am happy to have found someone to occasionally care for me big furry kids.

About: As someone who wanted a dog since I was a little kid, friends and family could always rely on me to care for their companion. I’ve had years of dog sitting and boarding, all shapes and sizes, breeds and ages of dogs. I’m excited to meet yours😊 As a teacher with my summers off, I’d love to spend some time with your sweet pups to keep them company while you’re out! I’m free anytime during week days. My dog needs frequent exercise as I’m sure yours does! Throwing ball and short walks are a necessity in our household. I am willing to visit your dog, walk your dog, and throw ball with your dog just as I would my own.

Jessica is a truly an amazing pet sitter. I felt so at ease trusting her with my fur babies. Her updates and communication were on time and included all the details I wanted to know. She went beyond what I could have asked for, and I know my cats were greatful. They even started waiting for her at the door! I hope Jessica is available for all my future pet needs :) thank you so so much!

About: Hello! I appreciate your checking out my profile and considering me to care for your pets. I know how important it is to find a great sittet, and I am available to give them all of my attention, and lots of love, while I take care of them in your absence. I am retired from a long career as a registered nurse and the compassion and care I have for humans, and the care I gave them, I will be glad to offer your fur babies. I have a life long passion for all animals, as a child I worked on a local farm and have taken care of neighbors and friends pets. I also am proficient in horses as I've been involved in grooming, riding them for the past 25 years. After losing Violet, my beautiful husky, and then my precious kitty Tessa, I am grateful for the opportunity to extend my loving care to your pets. I am retired and my schedule is almost always open. I will be respectful of your space and make sure that all your pets needs are met and your house is kept excatly as you left it. I have no problem picking up after dogs nor cleaning up litter. I am a caretaker by nature. I have a perfect house for boarding; it is spacious and I have a big yard with a sizeable fenced in dog area. I also can crate your dog if needed.

Michael came over to our house 2 times a day to feed our 2 Rottie shepherd mixes and let them out to use the bathroom. Him and his family were so great with the dogs! Our dogs are incredibly happy and looked like they had the best time ever in every pic! Michael came over in advance to meet the puppies and get an idea of what we needed, which I really appreciated! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our babies. If you are on the fence about who to select and reading everyone’s reviews like I did, I can say Michael was great and we will be recurrent customers for sure and plan on rebooking him for future travels we have coming up! Thank you so much again Michael and family! Our puppies are so happy!

Kailey took wonderful care of our cats, Noodle and Marius! She was communicative and detailed, sent us a surplus of pictures and videos each day, and cleaned up a couple of unexpected messes. This was the first time we’ve needed to hire a professional pet sitter, so we were a bit nervous, but we had no qualms after meeting Kailey. We’d gratefully have her watch our kitties for future trips.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate routines, basic medication administration, and giving extra patience and attention to dogs with specific needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just a calm companion, I provide loving and reliable care tailored to their routine. I treat every dog like family and work hard to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pup is in good hands. I’m currently a school teacher. So I will be available most days in the summer to care for your pet. This includes spending time with them, walking them, etc. I have 15 acres that your pup and I can explore. Mostly wooded, and does have a small creek. Your pup will get the opportunity to relax and enjoy the ability to either Lounge in the grass in the backyard or go for a walk through the woods.

Amanda takes the best care of our cat and dog. Our cat is definitely a quiet old man, but he tolerates Amanda which is a real win! Our puppy absolutely loves her. :) She sends lots of great pics, makes sure to take puppy for a good walk and gives him treats. She plays with him in the yard, he loves to see her. Everything is well cared for when Amanda comes to take care of the boys!

About: I have taken care of several animals, and I thoroughly enjoy it! I am very active and find walking or running a hobby with dogs. We would absolutely love to welcome your pup into our home! I currently work full time and get off at 4:30 but have plenty of free time on the weekends, afternoon walks during the weekdays after work! I like to modify my care routine depending on each pet and their needs. In my home I like to provide treats, and toys, with unconditional love. I have a schedule for routine feeding.

About: I am 24 years old and am looking for extra work this summer. I love animals and I have had dogs my entire life ranging in sizes. I’ve had pugs and a shih tzu as well as a black lab and a cane corso. I also have had several cats so I’m equipped and comfortable with them as well. I have multiple different handling experiences with different dogs with different temperaments. I have also taken multiple handling and training classes with a dog trainer. I prefer the smaller dogs but love them all and would give your pets the best experience. I love dogs and cats and am excited to get to know you and any of your pets. I am currently in the process of job hunting, so currently I have full open availability! I will update my availability if anything does change! While I do not do pet sitting in my house, I can assure that I will treat yours with the same respect I treat mine.

About: HI! I'm a young retired pet lover who is looking to help out fur babies families! I am available for house sitting and pet hosting at my home. Being retired, I am not on a regular schedule so I am home most often, but just like everyone, I do have appointments, shopping etc outside the home. I try to not be gone more than 5 hours at a time. I have had many dogs and cats in my life but none right now. I have been helping family and friends my whole life with pet sitting. I have helped with Chihuahua’s to PitBulls! I try to keep your fur babies on the same routine they have with you. Since I'm retired, I can take them on several walks a day. I am patient and enjoy large dogs as well as small. I am the perfect choice if your fur baby does better without other pets or children around. Or may be shy or skittish. Bring a couple favorite toys! I am retired but do help with caregiving of two family members so I am gone up to 5 hours at a time a couple times a week. Your fur baby is allowed on my couch and bed. I have a great fenced yard for throwing balls! I have a covered back porch so most fur babies love to lay outside but are under cover

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Emerald

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 669 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Emerald. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Emerald. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
