“I had Sarah as my first choice for a Rover pet sitter while my husband and I were away for a week on a trip. She is a great communicator and so nice! The whole time we were on vacation, my husband and I looked forward to her post-visit updates, photos, and videos. Not only were our cats' base needs taken care of, but she played and bonded with them. Mocha and Chai trust her and it shows. Thank you so much, Sarah!”
About: Several years of dog sitting experience. Comfortable with walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. Timely, diligent feedings and care instructions followed accurately to ensure the best care. I’m available for boarding and drop ins during evenings and weekends. I am also available for extended drop ins. I have reliable transportation, so can travel further to do drop ins. I care for pets by giving them the attention that they need. I ensure that their needs are met and that they are safe, and comfortable. This includes maintaining feeding and walking schedules.
“Wonderful first experience with Abbey! Great communication and my little Stella is usually so shy and barky to new people, but she warmed up instantly to Abbey on our initial meet and greet. I will definitely be booking again, thank you :)”
“Megan was wonderful with my kitties! Pastrami and Blackjack could not have been in better hands! She even put up with vomit and poop outside the box!! I will definitely be using Megan again on any of my future trips!”
“Great cat sitter! Tara left detailed notes each time and went above and beyond to buy more supplies when needed. She was also very polite respectful of boundaries for both my home and my cats.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have a 3 year old and 6 month old Australian Shepherd, so I’m very comfortable with high energy pups. I’d love to help care for your pet! I offer walking, boarding, and drop-in services. I work mostly from home, so I’m around throughout the day for boarding and attentive care. I also own a spacious home with a large yard, giving your pet plenty of room to play and relax. Prior to accepting boardings, guests must be up-to-date on their rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella vaccines and provide proof of vaccination status. The health of your pups and my pup are my top priority. Since I mainly WFH, I am available for boarding and daycare services any day of the week. I am also available for walks and check-ins after work and on the weekends. I have a very friendly dog who regularly goes to dog daycare and is up to date on all of his vaccinations and flea/tick/heart worm, so he knows how to play safely with other dogs and is crate trained. I can crate your dog as well if preferred.
“Carla did a great job watching our three cats. We had a tougher situation needing to separate one from the others but she did an excellent job communicating with us how they were doing and spending time with them!”
“Abby is excellent—caring, diligent, professional, & responsible. Wonderful with both cats & dogs. She boarded my cat for six days, & I felt I was leaving him in expert hands. I’ll gladly use her again!”
About: I have been a dog owner for a majority of my life and I have done what ever is needed to take care of them. I will feed, play, bathe, walk, give medicine, and take outside to potty. Essentially whatever is asked for me I will do. I currently volunteer with therapy dogs in a hospital and I love it! Would love to bring my skills and passion to animal owners every where. I do work full time however, weekends I am free including Friday evening and I know that may be hard to get as people travel on the weekend. I live in a safe and dog friendly neighborhood! I have a big home they can explore in. I truly watch the animals as when they move I move.
“Jasmine is awesome. Very respectful and professional, communication is great, she sent several updates and pictures of videos. I highly recommend her and will be booking her again very soon!”
About: I have grown up and taken care of animals most of my life. I am a reliable care taker who prioritizes communication to give you and your furry friend the best experience I possibly can and beyond. I am currently working part-time which makes my schedule perfect and flexible to help out wherever is needed! I have reliable transportation to get me to and from your furry friend! I am comfortable doing home visits whether that be for a few hours a day or over night. I take pride in my ability to give your furry friend the love and attention they need while you are away!
“I would HIGHLY recommend Ciara to anyone looking for pet care of any kind. She takes such amazing care of Angel everytime I board with her. I get lots of pictures and video updates of her and she is played with and watched 24/7. I trust her fully and she treats my cat as if it were her own. Ciara goes above and beyond any pet sitter I’ve had. Angel & I will miss you in Nashville!”
About: I have taken care of neighbors’ pets many times to brush, feed, scoop, etc and we have 4 cats of our own! I absolutely love animals of all kinds and there are stories of my excited reactions to dogs on the street while I was in a stroller :) I am a recent college grad working part time, which a huge passion for animals. Message me and let’s find a time that works for you! I will adjust to your home and animal’s needs, taking great care and ensuring all play is safe play, wherever we are, walking or at home.
“I was very nervous leaving my cat with someone else for the first time. Jordyn made sure she was comfortable and happy! Jordyn sent many updates with them playing! She is a very sweet person and with do great with your furry friends! If I could give her 10 stars I would!”
“I had a great experience with Allison.She was very responsive. I liked that she kept me updated with pictures and let me know that she was on her way. My dog liked her and i will definitely use her again.”
“Chelsea was great I can say enough great things about her. My cat buckie is 14 with some special needs and I could not even find a vets office to watch her while I was on vacation. Chelsea stepped up and did amazing with my girl. I don’t think she wanted to come home when I picked her up. She was very accommodating with my delayed flights and change in leave time and pick up time and I am so grateful for that. Will book with her again when we dining another trip.”
About: I have over 6 years of experience working in kennels caring for both dogs and cats of all ages. Along with several family friends and people in my community that I have sat for many many times. I have special training in providing medications in any form (Pills, ear/eye drops, topical medications, insulin injections, etc) and training/experience working with dogs of all temperaments (anxious, aggressive, energetic, reactive, etc.) I have a true passion and love for working with cat and dogs but am at not a point in my life where I can get on of my own, so I would love nothing more to spend some time with your fur baby! I am currently finishing up at school at Michigan State University but am commuting from my hometown for this semester. Fortunately I only have to be up in East Lansing for a couple of hours 2 days a week, and I am investing the rest of my time into my online classes. This has left my schedule pretty open for the upcoming months and I will be spending majority of my time with your pet during their stay! For those interested in boarding, I do live with my parents and a sibling, but they all love to have furry visitors and your pet is guaranteed to get an abundance of attention! When I care for someone else's pet I truly treat them as my own. I have great relationship with all of the clients I currently sit for and their pets. My main goal when sitting is to make sure that both the owner and the pet are entirely comfortable while they are in my care. To do this I try to create a very open line of communication and send frequent updates and pictures and make sure to ask questions rather than guessing how to care for someone else's pet.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy being a calm, caring presence in their day—whether that’s for a visit, a walk, or time spent in my home. I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I have a friendly 20 lb doodle named Teddy, who’s great at reading other dogs. He’s happy to play or just relax, depending on what your dog prefers. I also have Violet, my sweet 12-year-old doodle, who has fully embraced her “retired lady” era and mostly spends her days napping in cozy spots around the house. At home, there’s a large, fully fenced yard with shady spots and plenty of space for fetch, sniffing, or lounging. I provide treats (with your approval), playtime, and lots of love. You’ll get photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing and what adventures they’ve been on. I’m always easy to reach if you want to check in. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and visits throughout the day, give pets consistent attention, and adjust timing based on their needs and your preferences. I make sure every pet has fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, and plenty of attention. After walks, I’ll dry off paws if it’s wet outside and check that they’re clean and settled. I follow your routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, playtime, and any specific instructions—so your pet feels relaxed, happy, and at home whether they’re with me or in your space.

Emily took perfect care of my kitties and did everything I asked. She gave me thorough updates and even cleaned up their messes. They don’t like strangers and they were out playing with her and trusting her to give treats during visits. I plan on booking her again! 🤗
Lizzi was awesome. This was our first time leaving our super social under 1 year old kitten and I was really nervous. It was so great seeing updates of Zuzu happily playing, sleeping, eating and drinking.. being her happy self while we were away. Lizzi’s communication and kindness made this all a really easy experience for each of us when usually leaving a pet for the first time is very anxiety inducing. Lizzi is exactly the person I was looking for to take perfect care of Zuzu while we were away. That lextra level of attention and care that goes beyond being in a safe place and being fed, but truly knowing that someone with experience and compassion has their best interest at heart.

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.

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.
