About: My girls and I are genuine pet lovers - I have enjoyed animals all my life, always having dogs and working as an animal control officer for a police department for four years before staying home with my kids. My middle school aged girls spend much of their time playing with our dogs and cat, visiting the neighboring farm animals, learning about animals, and seeking opportunities to interact with animals of varying kinds. We are a homeschooling family with a flexible schedule; we are reliable, on-time, and have a strong work ethic. We enjoy the opportunity to love on pets and spend quality time with them when their owners are away. We successfully boarded dogs in our home in Arizona through Rover for two years. We have experience caring for dogs, walking them and providing for their needs. We also fostered puppies for a year and worked with them through potty training and basic obedience. We love puppies! We are kind and compassionate and desire to make each pet comfortable and happy. We can provide care to senior animals who need gentler love and attention as well as dogs of all sizes. We provide drop-in cat sitting and enjoy interacting with cats and meeting their needs. We clean litter boxes, offer play time and brushing and of course petting and any attention they desire. Our drop-in services include daily visits while owners are away on vacation or for dog walking/playtime while owners are at work or gone for the day. Visits can be one-time or reoccurring, and we can drop-in 1-3 times per day depending on your pets needs. We offer basic dog grooming in the clients home for an additional fee which includes brushing, a nail trim and a bath. We would love to have your dog squeaky clean for you when you get home! As a homeschooling family we have a flexible schedule that allows us to check on animals at various times during the day. We can make mornings, afternoons or evenings work depending on your pet’s needs. When we drop in to check on your pet(s) we will carefully follow all directions provided to give them the best care possible. We will provide love and attention, set out food and replenish water, administer any medications, check to make sure they are well and happy and that nothing looks awry with their environment. We enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them inside the house or in the yard. We clean litter boxes and provide any other care needed for each animal. We offer basic dog grooming in the clients home for an additional fee.
About: I have been working with animals for the past five years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and lizards. I have worked with disabled animals too Due to how my week operates, I am completely flexible. I can drop in weekdays and weekends, you and your pets are my number one priority. Your animal is safe with me; you don't have to worry. I aim to make open and transparent communication my top priority. If something goes wrong or your animal gets sick I will always contact you.
“She is a godsend! I have an older very timid dog that really struggles with new people. I honestly was worried that she wouldn’t go outside with the first visit when I wasn’t home. Within two days she she was totally OK with being around Jennie! Jennie has also been so kind to her and mindful, for instance, it was really hot today so she kept her in the grass instead of the pavement. She sits with her even when she’s done with the walk. I could not have asked for a better human to watch my pup! I have her on repeat for drop ins 3x every week while I’m at work and will continue to do so!”
About: I have had my own dogs for 20 plus Years and pet sit for other dogs as well, love to take talks and give snuggles! I currently work but have every afternoon available to help with pets on my area. I have even taken care of a full hobby farm on many occasions! I have my own pets so I am not willing to bring pets to my home but I will come to your home for you pet needs
“I am so blessed to have Abigail!!! Harley and Dozer love her and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. She is the absolute best! Even when a tree falls near my house and short circuits wires, Abigail fixed all my beeping smoke detectors so Harley wasn’t scared. If you live anywhere near Asheville, Arden, Mills River, or Hendersonville… you need to use Abigail!!”
“This is the second time Kristen has checked in on our fur babes, this time the dog too. All three are very happy and safe. Kristen asks great questions during the meet n greets and makes sure the animals are well taken care of according to any guidelines you share. She’s always sure to give them extra love too!”
“Kira was AMAZING with my puppy and my sister’s dog. She was reliable and I always knew I could count on her to show up and her communication was great as well. Highly recommend her!! 🤗”
“Ashlee took great care of my dog and was communicative. She made me feel at ease using a pet sitter for the first time. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again!”
“Kayla is very friendly, professional and trustworthy! It always takes my dog a while to get comfortable with a stranger, and I was pleased to notice that Kayla was very sensitive to this and gave my dog the space that she needed. The communication was great. Will definitely rebook!”
“Cate immediately made us feel at ease and we knew our furr babies would be well taken care of. And, they were! She was amazing with communication and punctuality and our animals loved her. She is someone that you can trust with your beloved animals. It is a game changer for us in our ability to go away and be able to truly relax knowing someone who is responsible, and so kind and loving is with our furry kids. Highly recommend!”
“Krystyn is such a mature and responsible lady. She was so considerate to my wishes and concerns about taking care of my two cats. My older cat, who is twenty, has cancer and needs special attention. She took care and prepared his food and his bedding perfectly with every visit. I would love to employ her again if she is available.”
“Laura was a very kind and caring presence while I was out of town. She took great care of my 2 small dogs. She would drop in to let them out and feed them as I had requested. If you ever want a sitter with a tender heart and attention to detail, reach out to her.”

Pet care in your home only; I have worked as a house sitter/pet sitter in NC for several years in addition to personal caregiver for 15+ years.
“I have a very anxious Aussie who gets very out of sorts when his herd of humans are away. From our initial meet and greet with Erika, I could see that her laid back and trusting energy provided my pup with the reassurance he needed. I was very happy with how the first visit went and plan to hire her again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Etowah
Lacie was so amazing during her drop-in visits with our cat! He requires twice-daily medication and she went above and beyond each visit to make sure he was well-cared for, happy, and healthy! We knew he was in great hands with Lacie, and her detailed entries and photographs at each check-in kept us up to date with how he was doing! I can’t say enough good things about Lacie and would definitely book her again!
Abagail was wonderful with our little Keller. He is pretty much blind and so is very careful when approached but he seems very comfortable with Abagail. She sends the cutest photos regularly and is very conscientious. She even brought in packages that were left at the door.
This is the second time Kristen has checked in on our fur babes, this time the dog too. All three are very happy and safe. Kristen asks great questions during the meet n greets and makes sure the animals are well taken care of according to any guidelines you share. She’s always sure to give them extra love too!

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.

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.
