“Kendyl was absolutely amazing. Hands down the best sitter I’ve ever had. Super communicative and my cat adored her. Highly recommend her services and will surely be booking her again!”
“Oh my gosh. I cannot recommend Fallon enough. She was just SUCH a blessing to have. I haven’t used Rover in a long time because of a past experience but Fallon is the real deal! Exactly what you’d hope for from a pet sitter. She goes ABOVE and beyond with her care and communication. I truly feel like I can’t leave my babies with anyone else anymore. We have tortoises, flowers, and 4 cats. One of them is super skiddish and she extended so much empathy to him until he warmed up to her. And she nailed it all! The biggest of thank yous from my family to Fallon! We will definitely be seeing her again as my cats already miss her! 🥰”
“Such a great experience. I knew reading the bio I wanted to book Belle. She was prompt, efficient, and communication was seamless from start to finish. Everything felt easy and handled with care. I really appreciated how smooth the whole process was and my dogs were happy and well cared for. Would absolutely book again.”
About: With over 20 years of experience, I care for animals of all ages — from playful puppies to wise seniors. I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always my top priority! I work remotely so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I also make my own schedule so I am extremely flexible and ready to meet all your animal care needs! I care for pets in my client’s home by following their usual routines as closely as possible, so the pet feels safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I make sure they get the right amount of play, exercise, feeding, snuggles, and any medications they need. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, giving them plenty of love and care while keeping their space clean and secure.
About: I have a love and passion for all things dogs, backed by the ability to be able to show them the love and happiness they deserve. I already walk multiple dogs a day currently and also have 2 dogs of my own, one being 140 pounds and the other being reactive on leash so I’d say I’m well trained in areas of concern for some. My family also fosters dogs, 42 and counting so I’d say I’ve done my fair share of walking and sitting of dogs in that regard also :) I currently have a very open job that allows me to spend lots of time with your babies to ensure they’re happy! Dependant on schedules I’m available mostly every morning and most afternoons I would like to start by coming to your house free of charge, in advance of sitting to introduce myself, learn about the area, any concerns or things to look out for. I will ask about the dogs routine and specific details of their day and then implement that into sitting
About: I grew up around dogs my whole life. My parents have two miniature schnauzers and one Doberman that I was the main caretaker for when I lived there. One of the schnauzers is in a diaper and the other is on a special diet for her kidneys. That being said I can help take care of dogs with special instructions for their care. I can also take care of larger dogs as my Doberman is my best friend. I help my family and my friends families, walk their dogs and I’m around dogs quite often. I try to nanny during the week so my schedule is pretty free, especially in the mornings and early afternoons. I love to go on walks in general both morning and evening so I can fit pet around most schedules. I am in an apartment but across the street there is a dog park that rarely gets used. It’s not super busy around me so going on walks is easy. I also don’t mind going to your home and will leave it mess free.
“Lili was truly a life saver when I needed someone to come check on my cat Maisie urgently. She was there within 2 minutes and was super prompt with feeding her, making sure the balcony door was closed, finding her hiding under the bed. It was an urgent situation and I couldn’t have been happier that Lili was up for the job because she went above and beyond. You MUST book for your pets too, she is an expert and great with animals!”
“Heather was fantastic!! On-time every time, great with my cat who seemed to have a lot of fun with her, and very communicative with potential issues. Won't hesitate to book her again in the future, and I recommend you do the same!”
About: A focal point in my life since day one has been animals. Pets in every home. I went to high school adjacent to the LA Zoo. I interned at a dairy farm at UC Davis. I started cat/dog/housesitting in 2012. I’ve looked after dogs with different energy levels and personalities, as well as cats who need anything from lots of attention to complete independence. I’m especially good at reading cues and adjusting quickly. I’m very routine-oriented and reliable, so feeding schedules, medications, and daily habits are always followed closely. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. Beyond pet care, I’m someone who naturally keeps a home in great shape. I’m tidy, respectful, and attentive to details, happy to water plants, keep things organized, and make sure everything feels calm and well cared for. What really sets me apart is that I treat every sit with intention. Your pet isn’t just being watched, they’re being understood and cared for in a way that helps them feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely at ease. I am working part-time and have the time, energy and unconditional love to provide care for all pets. I live alone and am home most of the day. I abide by your rules and make sure your pets remain taken care of. My goal is to ensure everyone’s safety and wellbeing. I am a big walker and live near parks.
“Taylor did a great job and was very good at communicating with me during her drop in visits. She was also very thoughtful of my home and I appreciated it. She went the extra miles of wiping Chico’s paws when they were full of mud after being out on the grass. She was very understanding of my dogs behaviors too and made me feel relieved while Chico was in her care!”
“Julia is so sweet and Rocket really loves her! As an over the top dog Mom, I trust Julia 100%. She is professional, polite, responsive and you can see her love for animals. We are so happy to have Julia to come check in on Rocket!”

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 Fernwood. On Rover:

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.
