About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have been caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. Beyond pet sitting, I’ve worked at an SPCA and at a zoo, where I gained hands-on experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals. I also study animals professionally, so understanding animal behavior and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood is something I genuinely love. I’m comfortable with animals of all personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I’m a graduate student with a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m generally available for dog walks in the mornings and evenings, and I have flexibility during the day depending on my class and research schedule. I’m also available for boarding on weekends. I’m happy to work around each pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care! I live on the top floor of a house with plenty of space for pets to relax and a small yard for some outdoor time. I also have a very friendly cat who loves dogs and other animals, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in a multi-animal home.
“Eliza was wonderful with our cat! She feed and played with him 2x/day and gave him love. She was so good that we booked her for our next trip before our current trip was over!!”
“I've used Bri a couple times and she is amazing! She was very prompt with the times she arrived and provided great feedback and photos of Lily to help with missing her from miles away! Highly recommend!”
“Nicole was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my animals were taken care of. She took time to know my animals and send lots of pictures while I was away! I highly recommend Nicole if you want quality care for your pets.”
“Xavier is reliable punctual and fantastic as always. He is detailed oriented and follows instructions well. I will book him again and I would absolutely trust him with my dog. I'm glad that I can have someone as reliable as him with my dog. We have communications so you can rest easy leaving him with your fur babies.”
“Kristen is amazing! Our cat really loved her. She’s super patient and passionate, always making sure he’s comfy and happy. We can tell our cat is well taken cared of and of good spirits despite us being gone for a while because of her visits. Bonus: she takes the cutest 🐱 pics ever! Highly recommend!”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for my own pets throughout my life and have hands-on experience as both a foster caregiver and dog trainer with service dogs in training. These experiences have taught me how to understand different personalities, needs, and behaviors while providing patience, consistency, and plenty of love. My passion for animals also led me to earn a degree in Ecology, where I developed a deeper understanding and appreciation for the natural world and the animals we share it with. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal as an individual and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, companionship, or simply some extra attention, I’m dedicated to treating them like family. I’m currently in between jobs and have plenty of time to care for your best friend! I also have a dog at home so I do need to care for him but other than that I’m available weekdays and weekends! When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed while their owners are away. I also take pride in being respectful of your home. I keep things clean and tidy, make sure pets have fresh water and a comfortable space, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
“Delaney is awesome! She really went above and beyond to take care of my cat even if it was just for the short 30 min check ins! She fully followed my instructions and did more than she had to. If I need a sitter again will definitely be rebooking with her”
“Rachel has been absolutely amazing taking care of our cat - he’s a bit older and has various meds but Rachel handled everything with ease, kept us updated throughout, and just clearly really cared about our cat and wanted to make sure he was comfortable and happy. We are really glad to have had her care for our cat over the holidays.”
“Jules is phenomenal and she took such good care of our two girly cats Ruby and Hollow while we traveled!! She catered to each of their needs individually and made sure they both had a great time with love and cuddles and lots of playtime and treats! She sent so many photos to update us and it gave us a real peace of mind that the girl’s were well taken care of!! She even made sure Ruby got her additional food supplements and brushing time everyday! Book book book!! We will be booking with Jules again for all of our travels in the future!”
“Ashely was great!! She took great care of our three cats who all have big personalities. She sent lots of pics while we were away and they all looked very happy to have playtime and pets. We came home to happy cats! We’ll definitely book her again!”
“Katarina took great care of our kitties while we went away for the weekend. From our first phone conversation, it was very clear how much she loves animals and it left us feeling reassured that our babies were in capable & loving hands. She sent us pivs of our babies and gave daily updates. Great work by an excellent pet sitter. We would not hesitate to use Katarina again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and even the occasional Axlotl for as long as I can remember! Trusted by friends, family, colleagues, neighbors, and strangers. Experience with: Dogs Young dogs Dogs with behavioral challenges Elderly dogs with medical needs Cats (The humble Axlotl) I work a few part time jobs, with some available daytime hours and some available nighttime hours. I always make sure to keep enough time for comprehensive pet care, meaning several walks a day, play, and leisure time together, but there are times when I must spend 6-10 hours out of the house. I have a beautiful, not-fully-enclosed yard that a leashed pet would love to spend time in. I keep a pet free home, but there are animals in my building. I do keep plants, not all of which are pet-safe, but I have a strict system for keeping them quarantined during animal care.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fairlawn
Having an attentive care sitter for your beloved pet is so helpful! Jayla helped give our sweet kitty both of his medications each day while we were away and changed his litter and gave him food and it was such peace of mind knowing they were there to check on our cat! Would definitely book again!
Justina is so great! She went above and beyond to care for my sweet kitty and she took the time to understand his preferences and personality quirks - she really cares about him! Justina did a great job with his medications, feeding and cleaning, she was always on-time, she played with him and gave him the space or love he needed, and she provided me outstanding updates and photos when she was with him. I’m so glad I found Justina!
Grace was absolutely wonderful with Archie! She was incredibly communicative throughout my time away, sending thoughtful updates and making me feel completely at ease. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and her attention to detail really stood out. The best part was seeing how quickly Archie warmed up to her—he already loves her! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’ll definitely be booking Grace again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitter!
Ben was such an attentive cat sitter to my three boys while I was away. He cleaned up a few messes, picked up medication, and communicated so well. I came home to 3 happy boys with clean bowls, an empty trash, and no weird smells (the dream return home scenario!)
I travel for work and Kristine is my go-to to watch my 10 year old rag doll cat who can be pretty high maintenance at times (kitty ibs). Kristine is quite literally the best and I know that whatever happens Kristine can handle it and keep me posted in a timely manner. You’d be a silly goober to not book with them!
I would give 6 stars if I could. This was my first time using Rover so my wife and I weren’t sure what to expect but Cayla took amazing care of our fur babies while we were on vacation for almost a week. 10/10 would recommend Cayla for any kitty care and will absolutely be hiring her again for future trips out of town. Thanks so much, Cayla!!
Delaney did an amazing job with our cats. They can a little timid with new people but they quickly warmed up to her. We have one that requires different medication at different times and she handled the schedule easily.. She even played with them for a bit and of course sent pics. The boxes were taken care of and asked questions if needed. We really appreciate all the time and care she showed them. We hope to work with her again. Thank you!

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.

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 Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
