About: I have over 4 years of experience caring for dogs all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve worked in a dog daycare environment, including experience as a supervisor, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets and handling different needs and temperaments. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply some extra love and companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help!

“Emma was so great with our cat, Finn! She communicated well (and sent pictures!) while we were away. She even brought in our mail and fed our fish which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again if we’re in need of another sitter!”
About: I have experience with a wide variety of animals! These animals include dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, goats, chickens, rodents, etc. I strive to make your animal as comfortable, happy, and content as possible while you're away! Animals welfare is my #1 When i'm not working at my part time job, i'm always caring for an animal in some way. Whether it be taking care of my own horse, caring for my guinea pigs, playing with my cats, or caring for the other horses at my barn. Animals have tremendously helped my mental health, and I strive to give pets and their parents the best experience with no stress. For caring for these pets, I pay attention to what the pet wants and needs. I work around my care routine to fit what the pet prefers, and make everything as comfortable as possible for them.
About: I’ve had animals since I was 6. Growing up I had over twenty cats, numerous dogs (big and small), and a horse! While owning animals allowed me to learn the basics, I’ve spent 10+ years volunteering in both RI and MA animal rescues to help animals in need. This has allowed me to meet an array of different species as well as personalities. It’s also taught me how to socialize feral cats/dogs, administer medication, CLEAN, and give lots of love. Each pet is unique and I learn something from every one of them! Some can run endlessly and others have to be rolled off the couch. I love and care for them all. If your pet is a social butterfly who is easy going or a bit of a weirdo who won’t tolerate being looked at or the sound of breathing while they eat, I’m your girl! At the end of the day I aim to be a consistent, stable, and reliable resource for pet parents looking for someone to care for their babies! I’m also open to discuss my pricing if need be I have LOTS of free time!! I’m hoping to fill up my schedule with as many fur babies as possible! The more snuggles the better! Making your pet comfortable is always the goal and that process isn’t always smooth! That’s okay! I have time, treats, and more treats on my side. For social animals I am able to just do what makes them happy. Walks, play time, cuddles, etc. For the shy babies I know it’s not always a one visit solution and that’s okay! I’ve had the meanest feral cats you can imagine in my house who turn into the snuggliest love bugs with a little time, love, and stability. It takes time to build trust and I respect that
About: My name is Breanne! I own a hound/ GSD, two cats, and I am fostering a lab! I used Rover in a pinch one day so I know how important this job is and how much of a lifesaver it can be! I would love the opportunity to help someone else in a pinch and make a dog happy at the same time. I am very active, I run trails, walk, hike, I can take your dog to the park, hiking, whatever you need. I have experience with various harness tools, etc.. as my dog is a working dog and we are constantly training. I love spending time with pets in all settings and I’m happy to help in any way I can! I also volunteer at a rescue in my spare time and coordinate spay and neuter services. I currently telework three days a week and have the flexibility to increase this when necessary. I work Monday - Friday 8-3:30pm and can work from anywhere. I believe in maintaining a pets routine to the best of my ability. Having your best friend away can be stressful enough, I do my best to ease your pet’s discomfort as much as possible.
“Super reliable and responsive. Goes above and beyond what’s expected during visits and spent extra time with my pet. She leaves very detailed report cards and lots of adorable photos. Follows instructions very well, will definitely book again”
“Gabby was absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative and respectful of our house. She did a wonderful job taking care of our cat Molly while we were away for the week. Gabby followed all the notes and instructions we left her and she didn't hesitate to reach out if she needed anything. I would highly recommend her and am looking forward to booking with her again!”
About: As a pet owner myself, I value honest and reliable care, not only for owners, but the animals themselves. I have experience providing care for a diverse set of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals. I aim to build trust with those for whom I provide care. I am comfortable with administering medication and attending to specific needs. Most importantly, I treat others pets with the same love and attentiveness as I do my own. I work full-time during the week, though I have more flexibility on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I work from home. I am available for drop-in visits any day of the week. I work with my clients to meet their needs and go out of my way to do so. When providing care in an owner’s home, I aim to leave pets and the home in a state that the owner would be happy to return to. I respect the boundaries of owners and pets alike so that I can build a relationship of trust, communication, and reliability. I hope to show my dedication to proper pet care through my actions.
About: I have lots of experience with dogs, and I am passionate about making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I have two dogs at home, 4 and 7, whom I love very dearly. I regularly do dog walks and have experience with overnight stays for one or two dogs at a time. I’m comfortable walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. Although my schedule varies, pet care is something I truly prioritize. I often dog-sit and walk dogs during my free time, allowing me to be flexible while still providing attentive, loving care. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment for pets, with plenty of space to play and relax. I ensure they have access to fresh water, toys, and cozy spots to rest. In my clients' homes, I prioritize their pets' comfort and follow any specific instructions provided. I maintain a clean and secure space, offer companionship, and keep them engaged with playtime and exercise. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with love and attention to ensure they feel at ease.
About: I have grown up with animals of all types. Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, frogs, etc! I have a lot of love for all animals, of all ages, shapes and sizes! I currently have a 9 month old boxer and a 2 year old betta fish. I grew up with two chihuahuas as well. I previously fostered a 140 pound pitbull/american bulldog and had 4 cats! I will provide love and care to your sweet pets as if they were my own. I am currently working full time as a nurse and will only be available on weekends or Friday evenings. I will also be available on Thursday evening as well! I will be able to take care of your animal however you need. I can administer medications as needed and provide medical care as well. Whatever you need, I can do it for you!
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forestdale
Jessica was fabulous with my cat while away. She is so attentive! She gave us lots of pictures and updates and made us feel at ease. I was so anxious leaving her. I purchased the wrong type of litter for her and she was so kind to bring in a package for me of new litter I ordered and replace it. She also picked up on the fact that my girl loves cardboard boxes and left it for her. Jessica also cleaned her food dishes/the sink and kept me updated on any changes in her normal habits/routine. She fed, brushed, gave her treats, and scooped her litter daily. I would highly recommend! I feel like she went above and beyond with her care and I will definitely be utilizing her for future travel!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my cat while I was away, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. She was reliable, communicative, and very caring. I really appreciated the updates and how well she followed all of my instructions. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking care of my fur baby! 🥹🐾💕
We are so happy to have found great local assistance for our cats while away on vacation! It was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Carley was super communicative from the start, and proactive in arranging our meet and greet well ahead of our booking. After meeting her and seeing how easily the cats took to her, we felt confident in entrusting her with daily feedings, litter box cleanings, and general visit & play time. She has a lovely vibe and our cats were right at home with her. She’s very organized and accessible, takes notes and keeps specific details and needs of her bookings via spreadsheet. She’s consistent and thorough with the timing of her visits and reports. She gave them plenty of attention, treats, catnip, and provided the daily dose of socialization that I’m certain the cats appreciated very much! They were their typical friendly and contented selves when we got back, and I’m sure they look forward to seeing Carley again before too long. We loved receiving daily updates and photos, and treasure the sweet card she left us upon our return. Carley went above and beyond! The hardest part of travel is being away from our cats and the peace of mind of knowing they are well looked after by someone nearby, trustworthy and reliable is priceless to us. We look forward to booking Carley again for our upcoming trips! Carley—Thank you so much for taking such great care of Nino and Teddy, and all the other pets you take time for! :)
Jacey is amazing! We were nervous because this was our first time using Rover but Jacey put all of that to rest quickly. She was very attentive to our fur babies, giving them pets, treats, and sending lots of pictures of her check ins! She picked up on our cats different personality traits and tended to them individually. This helped put us at ease knowing someone was taking great care of our kitties while we were away. We will definitely be booking her in the future & you should to!
Heather was awesome!!! She came to our house 2 times a day over the course of 9 days to give Oreo his old man meds and of course give him food and water and keep him company for a bit. Heather sent us cute pics at the end of every visit. Heather is highly recommend and we will definitely use her again!!!!
Thank you for making the time for Bruno and Jimmy while visiting for summer. Only thing I would have appreciated would be pictures daily and compared to other sitters check in when coming in and out but otherwise seems like Jimmy and Bruno warmed up to Kailey pretty quickly

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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. 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 , 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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.
