About: I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love caring for animals. I’ve cared for various dog breeds since I was 18 for neighbors, family friends, and home healthcare patients. My experience includes walking, feeding, playtime, companionship, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine this summer because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available for a variety of walking and drop-in times throughout the day and enjoy staying active and spending time with your pup. I do my best to stick to the routines each pet is most comfortable with to help them feel safe and more relaxed for while their owner is away. I prioritize and creating a calm and positive environment to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both pets and owners
About: I have been caring for pets of family and friends since childhood, and over time it naturally became a passion. I have experience with cats, large and small dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and currently I have a rabbit of my own. I am also an exotic pet lover. I have always researched and studied a lot about animal care and health, I like to go beyond the basics to make sure I can provide the best care for my pets. One of my biggest challenges (and achievements) was training my rabbit at home <3 I have always been very attentive with my pets’ health, I even had a personal veterinarian for all of them, including routine check-ups for my hamster haha. For me it is really easy to have a connection with animals and quickly build trust with them, which helps me understand their needs and behaviors. I truly hope to become a veterinarian in the future and continue dedicating my life to animal care. I believe that any living being that is dependent and innocent deserves the highest level of care, love, and protection possible. I currently work part-time, but due to the low season I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m able to adapt easily to each pet’s needs and provide consistent, loving care throughout the day. I live in a gated community, in a apartment with a lot of space. The condominium offers a dedicated dog park with a fenced area where dogs can safely run and play, as well as walking trails for daily exercise. If needed, I can also share photos of the environment so you can feel fully confident and comfortable about where your pet will be staying <3
About: I have been fostering animals for 4–5 years, caring for pets ranging from newborn kittens and puppies to senior animals. I am experienced in administering oral and topical medications, subcutaneous fluids, ear cleanings, and more. Animals have been a part of my life since day one, and I have a precious fur baby of my own. I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets and someone they can feel safe and loved with too. I can’t wait to spend some time with your fur babies! I work full time from Tuesdays to Saturdays however I do dictate my own schedule and I am able to work my schedule out a bit. I usually go into work between 8-10am and leave between 4-6pm. Your home is your pet’s safe space, and I believe they are happiest in their own environment surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and comfort. I will come to you, so your pet never has to leave the place they love most. You can trust that your home and your fur baby will be treated with the utmost care and respect. My focus is entirely on keeping your pet comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you are away.
About: I have had pets my entire life. I currently have three fur babies. Two dogs and one cat. I have experience in giving medication and all cleaning/grooming type tasks for both dogs and cats. I am very detail oriented and your pets overall wellbeing and happiness are very important to me. I will give them the love and respect that they deserve! I currently work at nighttime so I am able to provide dog walking or drop in visits for both dogs and cats during the day! I will spoil your babies with so much love and attention so they don't feel lonely while you are out and about. I am great at following any specific instructions provided as well.

About: All I've ever known since childhood was dogs, they've been a constant part of my time here on earth and helped to foster my love for all animals. Throughout my life I've always helped take care of family members pets as well as my friend's pets and it has always been a source of joy. Over the years I've cared for a variety of animals spanning different amounts of time. Be it my Uncle's dog for a weekend or a family friend's house, dog, cat, 6 chickens, and 4 ducks for a couple months I can help accommodate any need you may have and I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I'm currently back from college and am working part time. I'll have more than enough free time to accommodate your busy schedule and meet whatever needs you and your pets may have! I have a fenced yard, a pool, and a very sweet little dog who loves company. With a very spacious car and a personal fondness for hiking I can take your pet on nature excursions or to vet appointments. If needed, I can easily separate pets for feeding or quiet time to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable in their own space.
“Alesia is the best! She kept me updated regularly and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cats. When my door lock wouldn’t work, she provided the food to my outside cats so they wouldn’t go hungry until I got back. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!!!”
About: I’ve fostered dogs and cats since I was young, as well as raising bottle-fed kittens. I have two cats of my own, and worked at a pet store for 3 years! I’m a teacher on summer break, so until August, I am available weekdays and weekends at anytime! There are a few certain days I will be out of town, but I will give notice! I have a fenced in patio where a dog can relax, as well as a kiddie pool for some fresh water play! I can take dogs for pup cup runs, take lots of cute pics for you, and go on walks!
About: We are lifelong animal lovers and experienced pet owner with both dogs and cats in our home. I grew up with dogs my entire life, so caring for pets feels completely natural to me. I currently have my own sweet pets, and we’re a very animal-friendly, loving household. We offer flexible weekend stays and provide a safe and welcoming environment where your pet will feel right at home. I’m comfortable administering medications, keeping up with routines, and giving each furry guest plenty of attention. While staying with us, your dog can enjoy lots of walks and fetch in our beautiful gated neighborhood with sidewalks — perfect for exercise and sniffing adventures. Before pickup, I’m also happy to provide a bath or little “spa” refresh so your pup heads home clean and happy. Your pet will be loved, spoiled, and cared for like family. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because weekends are when our family is fully home and available. My husband and I work long hours during the week, but we spend almost every weekend at home with our baby girl and our dog. That’s why we choose to offer weekend-only stays — it allows us to be fully present and committed to caring for your pet. On weekends, we’re able to provide full-time attention, plenty of love, and a calm, relaxed environment. We can offer multiple daily walks, flexible feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles. Your pet becomes part of our family while they’re here, and we make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every moment of their stay. I care for pets in my home by creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they are treated like part of our family. During each stay, I follow the pet’s normal routines as closely as possible — including their feeding schedule, medications, walk times, and any special preferences they may have. At our home, your pet will enjoy multiple daily walks, outdoor time, and plenty of play such as fetch or tug, depending on what they enjoy. We live in a beautiful gated neighborhood with sidewalks, perfect for safe and pleasant walking routes. Inside, pets have access to cozy resting spots, fresh water at all times, and constant supervision since we offer weekend-only boarding, ensuring we’re fully present. We keep the environment clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, with lots of gentle affection and interaction. Before pickup, I’m also happy to provide a bath or quick spa refresh so your pet heads home clean and happy. My goal is always to make each pet feel secure, loved, and completely at home while they’re with us.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myers
Brooke really helped us with our kitty when we were in a time crunch. She did everything we asked her to do along with making our kitty feel comfortable. He’s a shy boy too, but really seemed to enjoy when she came to check on him! Definitely will be booking again.
We were in a bind. Ran off to vacation and forgot to feed our poor boy Armin. I reached out and Isabella responded quickly. She couldn’t get there when we requested but we worked it out. She arrived earlier than expected and did everything quickly and professionally. She communicated and made sure to send pics. She’s very nice and I definitely will use her again.
Heather did an amazing job caring for my two cats while I was away. She made both cats feel comfortable and safe. She did a great job of giving the cats time and space to warm up to her - one is very skittish and the other can sometimes be standoffish. Heather also easily got my grouchy cat to take his meds, which is always a win. I appreciated the updates about their status while I was away and I felt confident the kitties were well cared for by Heather.
Bianca came through at the last minute for me and took care of my cat for a few drop in hour long visits! My cat is very social and just needs some human interaction which is what I requested of Bianca. She sent photos from each visit and my cat seemed content when I came home. Thanks again!

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 .

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.

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.
