About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart!! With years of hand on experience caring for pets, I understand that they're not just animals, they're cherished members of the family. I've spent much of my life caring for animals with different personalities, temperaments, and individual needs. Whether it's an energetic pup who loves to play, a laid back companion who enjoys relaxing, or a cat who prefers affection on their own terms. I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and personalized attention. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members, and I strive to provide the same level of love, respect, and attention that I would want for my own pets. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for their owners, and plenty of love along the way!! Pet care fits into my schedule very well, I'm a stay at home mom already and available pretty much all week long to take care of your fur family. I don't do too much during the weeks, I do need to take my son to daycare twice or so a week but it's a quick trip, and I come home immediately after. I can confidently say that you fur baby will be will attended to, even if they prefer their space I will be there for them. For caring for animals in my or others home, I am first respectful to them, and let them lead the experience. If they are shy I don't startle them or rush them. I am gentle and patient with all fur babies. I follow routine very well and the more detailed a list is for care the better I can be for them, as every pet's needs vary from each other.
“Arianna was a fantastic sitter! I was initially anxious about leaving my cat for a 15-day trip, especially since he has diabetes and thyroid issues that require specifically timed twice-daily medication. This was my first time using Rover, but Arianna put me completely at ease. My cat is typically shy around new people, but he warmed up to her almost immediately, which really speaks to her gentle and careful nature. I received regular updates and photos throughout my vacation, allowing me to fully enjoy my time away knowing he was in excellent hands. Highly recommended! Thank you Arianna!”
About: I have 15 years of caring for pets of my own and well over 10 years of sitting for neighbors and friends pets. I have experience with dogs (of all sizes), cats, and pocket pets of all ages. I even have experience caring for elderly pets and those that require medication. Education background in animal care (Bachelor's in Animal Science and Associate’s in Animal Care and Training). I work part-time for San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. I usually work early mornings and late evening shifts a few days a week. I have a flexible schedule and readily available most mid-days. Through my personal experience and education background I understand how to handle animals safely and confidently. While also ensuring your pets comfort. I understand leash safety and feel comfortable walking dogs of various sizes.
“Took great care of my cat for the 2 weeks I was gone. Kept in touch each drop in and was super easy to communicate with. It was a great experience and I highly recommend Sabrina!”
About: I may be new to Rover but I’ve been the go to pet sitter for my friends for years plus I have 3 fur babies myself. I just moved to CA so my schedule is wide open so I can easily work with the needs you have for your fur baby. I can work with whatever situation your home or pet requires. Fenced yard great, no yard that’s fine too we can leash up and head out.
About: Your pet deserves more than just a sitter they deserve someone who treats them like family! With 5 years of pet care experience and as a proud dog mom of two, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and passionate about making every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, maintaining routines, or simply providing extra cuddles and companionship, I make sure every pet receives personalized care. I also understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone new. That’s why I prioritize clear communication, regular photo updates, and treating your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. My goal is to become someone both you and your pet look forward to seeing again. I want every visit to feel like they’re spending time with a trusted friend, not a stranger! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your furry family members! I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. Whether your pet needs exercise, feeding, playtime, or a little extra love, I’m happy to help! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities! I respect your home, follow your pet’s routine and care instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I’ll also provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident knowing your fur baby is in loving, dependable hands!
“Monica was great with our cat, Monkey! She was very punctual, communicative, and patient with my detailed instructions (haha). She was also diligent about giving Monkey his medicine. I appreciated the notes she sent us after each visit. Highly recommend!”
“Jay is always my first choice for a sitter because he is dependable, communicative, and caring. My partner and I know our cats are doing well while we’re away which is a huge stress relief. Thanks so much!!”
“We were so worried to leave Cleo for an entire week since she had been having some ongoing health issues. Destiny went above and beyond what we expected in order to make sure that we enjoyed our vacation without worrying. She was even flexible with the schedule, and allowed us to update to overnight stays without much notice. She sent us updates and pictures regularly, and called whenever she had a question or noticed something odd. We could enjoy or vacation knowing Cleo was in such great and caring hands. We have already booked her again for an upcoming event!”
“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties! She was incredibly sweet, friendly, and easy to communicate with the entire time which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”
About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic puppies learning the basics to senior pups who need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic puppy training, including potty and crate routines, leash manners, and basic commands, and I’m happy to follow whatever training methods you use at home. I also have plenty of experience with senior dogs and understand the importance of adjusting walks, playtime, and daily routines to their individual mobility, energy level, and needs. I’m experienced in caring for multiple pets at once and managing different personalities, feeding schedules, walks, and routines. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else; they’re part of the family and I’ll always treat them with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’m currently training and teaching jiu jitsu classes which allows me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. Im able to build my schedule around your pets specific needs or energy levels and love going for little adventures to the park, beach, or where ever your pets favorite spot is! I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m clean, tidy, and mindful of your space while making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their normal routine. For overnight or multi-night stays, my dog Lola does need to accompany me. She is a sweet, senior Rat Terrier who is accustomed to being around other pets. I typically provide daily photos and updates but am happy to provide whatever makes you comfortable in knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve had 6 dogs in my lifetime and have watched them all grow old. I’ve recently trained my last 3 dogs and have watched them while my family was away for the last 6 years. Other than that I have dog sat and dog-walked for family and friends for the last 3 years. i’m currently a full-time student but have plenty of breaks in my day to care for your pets! I also work a part-time job, which is only for a few hours during the day on the weekend. I follow all safety protocols and in house rules as they’re provided to me to ensure the overall safety and care of your pets!

I have a fence around the yard, I have two dogs that could keep our furry friend company. I’m also open to watching furry friends at my clients house.
“Emily did an INCREDIBLE job with our two kittens. She was attentive, communicative, and we are extremely appreciative of her time. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Ginny was communicative and took care of tweety bird with love and care. She did a great job trying to understand my feral cat and treated her with respect and space. Tweety has severe separation anxiety and food anxiety and can be unpredictable and Ginny handled her with grace. Thank you so much Ginny, I hope you will come back again and take care of tweety even though she gave you a hard time.”
“Paige was an amazing sitter for my cat! She played with her during her drop ins and kept constant communication including sending me pics of each visit. I will definitely book with her again next time I go out of town. Thanks again Paige!”

Would highly recommend, and will definetly be booking her again for our next trip!
Anna took great care of my two kitties when I left town for the weekend. When she came to pick up the key I saw she was excited to take care of them which made me even more comfortable leaving them (for the first time with a pet sitter) with her. Will definitely be contacting her for future pet sitting. Thanks Anna!
We absolutely love Brittany!! She’s our go-to for our babies and always takes such great care of them. She sends the BEST pictures and updates, and we always feel so much better knowing she’s checking in on our kitties. Our little crew loves her, and so do we! 🥹🐱💕
Christine was amazing! She took great care of our two cats and kept us updated on them while we were gone. One of our cats has a medical need and she was more than capable of handling that and our young kitten with tons energy! I would recommend her to anyone. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!
She did such a great job taking care of my cat! She was caring, responsible, and very easy to communicate with. I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat, which meant so much to me. I really appreciated her help and would highly recommend her to other pet parents! 🐾❤️

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.

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 .
