About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have been lucky to spend my life caring for them in many different ways. I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and bunnies, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I currently work at an animal shelter, where I care for pets with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care, especially for pets who may be shy, nervous, or adjusting to a new environment. In addition to shelter work, I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands-on experience with group play, structured routines, and safe supervision. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to giving you peace of mind, and your pet lots of love. :) Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have a flexible schedule and am available most days between 8:30 AM and 5 PM. I plan my day around pets’ needs to ensure consistent, attentive care. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, preferences, and personality, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medication, and cuddle preferences. Because I work at an animal shelter and have experience in a doggy daycare, I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and stress signals. I provide calm, patient care and adjust my approach based on each pet’s energy level and comfort. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is always to create a positive, low-stress experience and treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I have worked with animals my whole life. Caring for them is something I truly love. I have a B.S. in Animal Science and worked as a vet tech for many years. I have hands-on experience with dogs, cats, small animals, chickens, exotics, senior pets and large animals, especially pigs. I also specialize in animal reiki. I’m comfortable giving oral, topical, and injectable medications, as well as caring for pets with special needs. Every pet has a unique personality and routine. I will take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I have a flexible work schedule at the moment, so this allows me to provide multiple visits or walks for your beloved pet. I aim to make things convenient for you and your pets. I provide love and care to your pet in the comfort of their own home. I follow directions well and will always send photo or text updates to ease your worries.
“Kaitlyn was very attentive from the moment she met Nala and Charlie. She gave me updates for every check-in and walk she did. She sent pictures throughout her visits and made me feel reassured that my pets were in good hands while I was away. I highly recommend her. Thank you Kaitlyn!”
“Elisa was so exceptional! She consistently followed through with our long list of "tips" for Harley's care, and she included time for "pets" and spending time with our "sensitive" cat. We were greeted with multiple pictures and updated on a daily basis which was very comforting, and came home to a happy, well-adjusted kitty!”
“Ian was great! He provided such great care to our puppy on such short notice. We appreciated his detailed feedback and how attentive he was. He was also easy to get in touch with and very responsive. We highly recommend Ian!”
About: I’ve been a huge animal lover and taken care of animals since I was about 14 years old. I have fed, walked, and spend time playing with dogs and cats of all ages. I’m very comfortable around dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and happy while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I work from 7am to 5 pm monday-thursday every week, but I’m available most evenings and have open availability from Friday through Sunday. This allows me to spend quality time walking, playing with, and caring for pets. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space indoors and outdoors for animals to roam freely. I treat every pet like my own by providing a safe, calm environment and making sure they feel comfortable, well cared for, and loved while their owner is away.
“Sarafina did a great job caring for my cat, Lawrence! He just needed daily drop-in visits and she sent lots of photos. She stopped by beforehand to make sure she knew exactly what he needed and was friendly and knowledgeable! She did an excellent job with my instructions and gave him plenty of playtime while she stopped in. I highly recommend Sarafina for any of your pets needs!”
About: I have two cane corsos at home I also grew up with pitbulls, cocker spaniels, and Pomeranians. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I am currently a teacher on summer break so I am pretty flexible! I have a cane corso of my own that I walk through town frequently! I do not do at home care. But I am looking forward to doing walks through town with your furry friend! Reach out if interested!
“Katie was wonderful. Our cats were happy and content when we arrived home, and she did a great job following our requested instructions. She was always responsive to any communication I sent. We will certainly book Katie again.”
“Katrina is always thoughtful and cares deeply for your furry kids. She’s always making sure everything is right, and if not, she’ll figure out a way to make it right.”
“Adrianna really took the time to get to know basil. He’s a little shy . We are really lucky to have found a caring responsible person to help us when we’re a way for too long”
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. As a child, wife, mom and teacher, I have taken care of and loved many animals over the years. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, turtles, birds, fish. As an educator, I have open availability during the summer. I'd love to show your pet some extra TLC during your workday to ease your mind! I have all of my security clearances as an educator. I hope this helps provide you with peace of mind when I come to take care of your pet.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my whole life and now have a cat of my own. I’ve also cared for my senior dogs, whom I’ve raised since they were puppies, giving me experience with every stage of a pet’s life. I’m passionate about animal care and will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. As a full-time teacher, I work Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. I’m available for afternoon and evening drop-in visits and walks anytime after 4:00 PM on weekdays, and I have full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I’m committed to giving every pet the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your home and your pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll respect your home, follow all care instructions carefully, and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You can also count on regular updates and photos for extra peace of mind.
About: Animals have always been part of my life. I cared for my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Maycee, for 15 years, from her puppy days through her senior years, so I understand the full range of a dog’s needs as they grow and change. These days, I share my home with two large, gentle sighthounds (a Saluki and a Silken Windhound) and a playful young cat, so I am comfortable with multiple pets and a variety of personalities. What sets us apart is that we are a mother and son team who genuinely love animals and enjoy caring for them together. My 13-year-old son Julian is gentle, calm, and observant with pets, especially high energy dogs or animals that need a little extra patience. He is eager to gain experience now so he can eventually run his own pet care business when he turns 18. I bring years of direct experience, from senior care to leash training and caring for multi pet households. Together, we create a safe, peaceful environment where your pets will be treated with the same love and attention we give our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because animals are already a big part of our lives. We’re available in the mornings and afternoons after 3PM, which makes us a great fit for daytime walks, check-ins, or playtime. I’m also available in the evenings, as late as 9:30PM, for dinner visits, medications, or just some comforting company before bedtime. As a mother-and-son team, we’re flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to make sure they feel safe, seen, and well cared for. We care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it is a drop-in visit, a walk, or extended care, we always follow your pet’s usual routine including meals, potty breaks, walks, medication, and play. This helps ensure they experience as little disruption as possible. We treat your home with respect and your pet like family. My 13-year-old son Julian joins me for many visits and brings a calm, friendly energy that animals naturally respond to. I provide supervision and structure while he gains hands-on experience with the goal of one day running his own pet care business. You can count on us to be reliable, communicative, and attentive. We are also happy to help with light household tasks during your time away, such as collecting mail, watering houseplants, or tending to gardens. We will check in with updates and photos so you feel confident that your pet and your home are in good hands.

Val did a great job caring for our senior kitty! She visited him each morning, and didn’t just take care of his “food and box.” She played with him and had him engaging in toys and games he hasn’t enjoyed in a while. I will definitely contact Val first the next time we need a pet sitter!
This is my first time hiring a pet sitter for drop-off visits from Rover.com. I like Alexandra for a reason; she took her time to visit my kitties. Got along with them. Alexandra paid attention to all the details I explained about feeding, petting, and caring for my lovely cats. I really like her. My Kitties looked relaxed and calm when we came back from the trip. Thank you, Alex!
Adrianna was great my cat loved her. I most definitely ask her again. Kept me posted on my cat every day and sent me pictures which make me feel good about leaving him. Always on time. Very neat and the kitty litter was taken care of very good. I can't say enough about her she was excellent.

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 Gardenville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
