About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been something that comes naturally to me. As a dog and cat parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate comfortably with a wider range of pet owners and ensure clear understanding of your pet's needs and care instructions. My goal is to give your pets the same care, attention, and affection I would want someone to give my own. You can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family members are in caring and dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work during the week, but I’m available in the evenings after 6pm for dog walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your pets. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can offer boarding and extended care. Because I have a set work schedule, I’m able to plan ahead and make sure every pet I care for gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I truly enjoy spending my free time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely look forward to. When your pet stays in my home, they’ll have plenty of space to relax, play, and move around comfortably. I have a friendly Labradoodle and a cat who have their own separate areas of the home, so your pet can have some company if they’re comfortable around other animals. I always respect each pet’s personality and your preferences, and I’m happy to keep pets separated or crated if that’s what makes them feel safest and most comfortable. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and welcoming home where every pet can feel comfortable while they’re away from their family.
“This was our first visit away from our kitten, Nico, and I was incredibly nervous. However, Kayli took excellent care of our guy. She was incredibly communicative, gave Nico very well rounded visits (lots of snuggles, all of his favorite toys, etc.), and made sure to ask all of the right questions before our trip began. We will definitely be booking her again, Nico will miss her!”
“We just got our puppy and had to leave for a wedding so we decided to book with Rover. Savannah was great with our puppy and made sure he received love throughout the day!”
“Ehuniz did an amazing job sitting for my dog Asja! I can pretty much fill out a potential sitter during the Meet and Greet. Ehuniz was very warm and calm which made me quite comfortable (my dog feeds off energy). Ehuniz was very responsive when I made initial contact with here to sit for my dog which was a pretty quick turnaround due to a last minute issues with the person originally scheduled to sit for her. I highly recommend Ehuniz if you are looking for a reliable sitter!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and watched after dogs almost all of my life. From my god mother's Rottweiler, Sisters Black Lab, my best friends Boston terriers a labradodle. Your pup will be in great hands with me. I work from home so I have no issue with being in the house with your dog. My community is very pet friendly with not 1 but 2 dog parks that allows for exercise and fresh air. I work full time from home, and have a very flexible schedule. Usually while watching pets for friends I'll go for a morning walk for bathroom needs, around lunch we'll take another quick walk and game of fetch and one more walk in the evening before the sun goes down. I care for pets depending on what you as the owner recommend. For my dog nephew, we only feed him at 4pm (put food in the bowl) so that in the mornings and nights when we take him out to do his business he's good to go. I like to have a toy or bone around for them to chew on while I work, but once we go out side I make sure we're getting some fresh air for at least 30minutes to an hour.
“Kordell was an amazing sitter. I found him as a sitter last minute after other sitting arrangements fell through and his flexibility was a life saver. Also, Buccy the cat, normally standoffish and moody got along with him pretty well which was a happy surprise. Thank you again Kordell!”
“Great help, Anh really helped put my mind at ease while I was away, and helping with the dogs was a big deal. She was very attentive and reliable on time and had attention to detail. I will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend”
About: Im a DC based management consultant with a soft spot for “furry baes”! I’m an experienced pet owner looking to help out my neighbors. You can count on me to be affectionate, trustworthy, and professional. When I’m not working or pet sitting, you can find me at a gallery opening, a new restaurant, at the local movie house, or spending time with my cat Javier. I fostered a dog this summer, and although I loved her dearly, I found her a fantastic home and taught her a few tricks! I love animals of all kinds, and they love me back! Contact me to schedule a visit. I’d love to meet your furry family member! I was unfortunately laid off last year from my consulting career. But that’s ok! I now have more time to connect with nature, decompress, and nurture my inner animal lover! I believe the best sitters and walkers enter your home with good energy, as animals often recognize when a human is well intentioned. I know how to approach pets, and most importantly, wait for them to approach me.
About: I’m very dedicated to learning pet breed personalities and learning about your unique furry friend through intuitive care and patience. I’m available for pet sitting and dog walking, with activities tailored to each pet’s personality, age, and needs. Walks can include plenty of exercise and opportunities to explore, while drop-ins and sitting visits can include playtime, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, cuddles, and lots of attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. I’m currently working part-time. My schedule allows for flexibility with my time, which will be dedicated to any and all pet care needs. I have a safe smoke-free space where your pet can help themselves to run, play, and rest on a nice soft bed. A home away from home. I can’t wait to meet them!
“While I didn’t actually get to meet Edmond and Nafis, they were very easy and pleasant to work with. They were also accommodating when my trip got unexpectedly extended. I got detailed summaries of each visit and lots of pictures which always puts my mind at ease! I will definitely be booking them again in the future.”
“Mike was amazing with Scooby! He watched him for a couple of weeks and took great care of him the whole time. He was very helpful, easy to communicate with, and made sure we stayed updated every day by sending videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Scooby was in good hands. Highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover 🙌🏽”
“Lilla was great for visiting with my two pups! She was flexible and quick to respond when I needed a sitter due to unexpected trip to attend a funeral. She communicated well and provided me pictures of her visits. She even cleaned up after one of my pups when she got sick in the house. I’d recommend her and will use her again. Thank you, Lilla, and sorry about the pup mess!”
“Tandy is AMAZING!! Organized, considerate, responsible - everything a person could want in a sitter watching over their beloved fur babies. With Tandy cat-sitting I was confident they were safe and well-cared for.”
“Jayla has a very nice vibe about her. She followed my instructions and was always on time. I was out of the country for a week and I didn’t worry about my little kitty once. I plan to call on Jayla every time I’m away in the future. She’s EXCELLENT. I highly recommend her.”
“Aliyah was Great! Super responsive went the extra mile beyond just what I asked her to do. Sent pictures and definitely seems like she has a great love for animals. Will definitely book her in the future.”

I couldn’t find a better sitter for our Rainbow! Natalie was super thorough and communicative. She asked great questions up front and provided detailed updates. She was very kind and thoughtful. For example, she brought in a Chewy package that she noticed was delivered on a check-in day. Rainbow took to her very well - she let her brush her which can be dicey! I would love to have Natalie sit for us again in the future!
Mickela was great with my cats, and we have a lot of cats. She was able to make each of my cats feel safe and cared for while I was gone on a very long work trip. Normally I come home to a house with some kitty messes due to stress and this time I came home to a clean and happy house where I could just hop right back into our normal routine. I have already booked Mickela for my next work trip and she will 100% be my regular sitter. I highly recommend!. She was able to give my cats their medicine, handle a pretty hectic feeding time, and keep everyone happy and stress free. If you want someone to love your cat like their own Mickela is your person!
Reetchel is the best in the game. She is reliable, trustworthy and has saved me when I faced a difficult travel situation and had to come back home later. You can be sure that she will take care of your pets like her own. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Reetchel!

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.
