“Cheyenne is a fantastic Rover! She took great care of our cat while we were away- giving us detailed updates, asking thoughtful questions, and overall clearly looking out for the happiness and wellbeing of our little guy.”
About: Hi! I’m Izzy, a passionate pet-lover who can provide care for your fur-babies. I’ve been a dog mom for quite some time, 7+ years. I am experienced with caring for senior dogs, reactive dogs (any size), cats, and puppies. Whether your pet may need high-energy walks, playtime, calm walks, feeding, or simply a cozy companionship while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I understand the importance of peace of mind when leaving your pet with another. That is why I always follow a routine, clarify directions for care for your pet, precise on feeding schedules, and ensure your pet feels safe and welcome. With my late baby, my lab/pitt mix Levi, I got to intern as a dog trainer to learn techniques to help with my dog’s reactivity, obedience training, and leash training. I am extremely patient and overall want to continue to share my love for animals through my sitting services. The services I offer are: - Dog walking: 30-60 minutes around the neighborhood tailored to your specific dogs’ needs and pace. - Drop In Visits: feeding, fresh water, litter box change, yard waste pickup, and play/cuddle indoor or outdoor time. - Overnight House-sitting: full overnight care in your home to keep your pet comfortable within their regular routine. I am extremely excited to start using Rover to expand my care and love for animals! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to do leash walks, playtime, feeding, litter box changes, and more throught my day. I am currently available Wednesday - Sunday at any time depending on the schedule you may need. I will not be offering my home to clients but will be happy to pet-sit in yours. Safety with any animal is priority, as their safety and mine is my first step when pet-sitting. I always check home codes, fences/gates on outdoor yard playtime, and proper space between several pets in a home (if noted/required). During playtime, I am always consistent with checking toys/bones throughout to ensure there are no choking hazards. During leashed walks, I always take note of your animals temperament and comfortability with me as their walker. Looking out for warning signs with me or any other animals on our walks.
“Sonja is terrific! My kitties loved her from the moment she came in. When I got home, my kitties were calm, had full bellies, potties were clean, all was in order. I couldn't be happier with the care Sonja provided, I 100% recommend her.”
“Kayleigh was always on time, took good care of our kitties, was super responsive, and the house was always in order. I defintley will ask her to take care of the cats again. She's amazing and I would highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been working with pets ever since I was 12 walking them feeding them and taking care of them. I love taking care of pets no matter if it’s cats or dogs I love them all. I am currently working part-time and also a part-time student but I love being outside and going on walks with dogs and taking care of cats just by stopping. I have a pretty decent backyard that is fully gated off and I have two amazing and playful dogs yo-yo and Scooby. They are the cutest dogs ever and another small little furball named Cleo and she is just so adorable.
“Katherine took the absolute best care of my cat Mouse! Mouse had a whole room to herself, and Katherine’s home was absolutely immaculate. She sent me tons of pictures every day along with constant updates on how Mouse was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was kind, professional, and made my entire trip completely stress-free! Mouse even got to enjoy the catio and sunbathe, which she absolutely loved. I would 100% recommend Katherine to anyone looking for someone to take amazing care of their pets!”
About: Experienced in caring for large dogs, reactive pets, cats, and multi-pet households. I own three large dogs and grew up with six dogs & 2 cats! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time caring for animals. I’m available throughout the day and happy to work around your pet’s normal routine, giving them plenty of attention, comfort, and personalized care while you’re away. I’m big on getting to know each pet and what makes them happy. I have three dogs of my own, and all three have totally different personalities, so their care looks different too. We have a fenced yard, but we also do focused heel walks, sniff walks, training, off-leash practice, lake days, and plenty of playtime.I do the same with the pets I watch. If your pet is a homebody, we can stay in, play, and relax. If they love being outside and going on adventures, I’m happy to keep them active. I really enjoy figuring out each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re with me.
About: I've been a pet owner for 30 years and have been a part of a dog rescue for the past 5 years where I have fostered and adopted out over 10 dogs. I currently have two dogs and a cat who are used to visiting animals in and out of the house. I'm currently working from home during the week so I'll have plenty of time to interact with your fur babies! I can provide boarding any day of the week, and can host more than 1 dog at a time. While I'm home the animals are free roam and are welcome in any room in the house . However if there is a concern with cat reactivity I can block off an area where visiting dogs cannot get to cat area. At night pets are kenneled in their own 4x4 foot kennel space.

𝐌𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝑺𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒛𝒆𝒅 𝑴𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 & 𝑺𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒐𝒓 𝑪𝒂𝒓𝒆: Leaving a senior or medically fragile pet can be incredibly stressful, but your furry family member is in safe, experienced hands with me.

My personal and professional experience includes managing **feline diabetes**, tracking **strict prescription urinary diets**, and caring for sweet cats with **Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH)**. 𝑪𝒂𝒕𝒔 𝑾𝒆𝒍𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒆: As a dedicated cat parent to four rescues of my own, I speak "fluent feline."

“Lorraine was able to come watch my babies last minute and did an amazing job. She was friendly and keep me updated on how my babies wore doing and send pics. Because of her I was able to have a worry free vacation. Will hire her again in the future.”
About: Hello! I'm a senior at Virginia Tech majoring in animal science. I’m taking classes over the summer so rather than working at another vet clinic, I decided to petsit so I have more time to study. I have been working on and off at vet clinics during school breaks for 4 years and I can't wait to meet you and your precious children (pets)! I will be available almost any time, given that most of my classes are virtual right now. Thankfully that means I have more time to hang with your pups! I live with a cat, and I try to limit her interactions with new pets as this tends to stress her out, so my availability is mostly directed at coming to your house to take care of your dogs and cats or take your animals on walks.
“Madison took care of my pets while I was on vacation. She was attentive to the instructions given. While away, she constantly updated me if there were any changes and provided my pets with the best care. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking trusting and attentive pet care needs. I am looking forward to working with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve always had pets my whole life of all different kinds. I’m patient and playful with animals. I have cared for mostly seniors and puppies. I currently sit a senior Boxer with arthritis so I have experience with administering meds and providing comfort. I’m working with only one family with three dogs right now, so my availability is pretty open! I also do well with a lot of pets, as I live on a small homestead. I do best in a client’s home as I believe it makes the pet the most comfortable. I also have too many animals in my personal home to feel comfortable allowing my animals to interact with other pets. My pig isn’t the biggest fan of dogs these days. I prefer a backyard when possible so I have space to play with your buddy, but I also love a long walk. Whatever is most convenient and comfortable, I can work with just about anything.
“Super flexible and responsive, Marissa was an absolutely amazing sitter who went above and beyond making sure my kitties were safe and cared for! She followed all directions to the letter and took extra care to make the pet space clean and tidy.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fredericksburg
Lucas is extraordinary. His check-in notes on our cat were thorough and he took excellent care of her while we were gone. He’s also a really nice guy: thoughtful, pleasant, and helpful. He also came highly recommended, and he did not disappoint. Thank you so much, Lucas!
Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our cats! She was dependable, caring, and treated our pets as if they were her own. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands while we were away. Katherine kept us updated, was attentive to their needs, and made sure they received plenty of love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter and would highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!
Erin is so great. I had to arrange for drop in visits for my cat last minute. Erin is reliable. She played with my cat, sent me tons of pics, and of course, made sure she had food/water. It provides such peace of mind to have Erin looking after your pet. I highly recommend her.
Raine was honestly the best cat sitter I’ve had on this app! I’ve had a few great cat sitters over the years (about 5-6 different sitters total), but she truly went above and beyond anything I’ve experienced. I lucked out that she was available on short notice for a holiday weekend. Over the four days I was traveling, she visited twice daily and sent me detailed and well organized updates about how my two kitties were doing and what she did each visit. She sent photos for each visit and even asked if she could bring some of her own kitty’s favorite lollipops to share as a treat. When one of my cats wouldn’t take his meds, she followed up about how to handle and she also located a few items I had forgot to set out for her. I was able to thoroughly enjoy my trip without worrying about my kitties being lonely because I knew they were in great hands, especially because they’d been fighting lately and she accommodated my unique setup to keep them separated. I highly recommend her caring for your fur babies and look forward to booking her again!
We had a fantastic first experience using Rover thanks to Lucy! As first-time users, we were a little nervous about having someone come into our home while we were out of town, but Lucy made the entire process feel easy and reassuring from the start. She responded to our request almost immediately and scheduled a meet & greet within just a few days, which really helped put us at ease. While we were away, Lucy came by daily to take care of our cat, and she did an excellent job. It was clear our cat was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and attention she gave. Knowing that Lucy has cats of her own and also works at an animal hospital gave us an extra level of confidence that our pet was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking with Lucy again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsive, and caring pet sitter!
Paige did a great job taking care of the cats. She surprisingly made a connection with them on their first meeting, despite their shyness. She is truly a cat whisperer! Bonus: she got a photo of one of my shyer ones that is my current favorite pic of them. Thank you Paige!

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.

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.
