We awaited anxiously for her beautiful photos each day. I cannot recommend her highly enough. We are engaging her again in a few days and will continue to book her for all our future trips.”

About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters, where I helped care for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. Having grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life, I understand their needs, personalities, and the importance of providing patient, loving, and reliable care. I am a morning person, who is in PA school 8am-5pm most days. I can do early morning, lunchtime, and dinner drop-ins during the week. I am free all day on the weekends. I provide attentive, personalized care in my home or my client’s home, always following each pet’s routine and specific needs. This includes feeding, fresh water, administering medications if needed, walks and playtime for dogs, enrichment and companionship for cats, and regular updates for owners. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they know and trust.
“Veronica is the best with Stormy. She is not a very friendly cat and Veronica has won her over. She is timely and follows the instructions I leave for her. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Lauren watched our cat while we were out of town, and as always, our cat loved her! In fact, he rarely sits in anyone’s lap, and there were pictures that she sent us where he was sitting in her lap. It was so cute! She’s clearly a cat whisperer. Can’t wait to hire Lauren again! She’s the best!!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life, long before my family ever adopted our own. We rescued our first dog when I was 7 and loved him up through his grey fur and blindness.

About: From 2018 to 2026 I owned and ran Biscuit's Dog Services in Longmeadow, MA, caring for 40 recurring clients' dogs. In 8 years I kept a 5-star satisfaction rating and had zero safety incidents, thanks to strict safety habits on every walk and visit. Most of my business came from referrals, and many clients stayed with me for years. I have worked with every type of dog from energetic puppies to quiet seniors that need extra care. Before that, I served 4 years in the U.S. Navy, where I led teams, handled high-pressure situations calmly, and learned that showing up on time and following through matter most. I've recently moved to Knoxville and am bringing the same dependable, safety-first care to the Cedar Bluff area. Your dog's routine, feeding, and comfort come first, and you'll get an update after every visit. Pet care is my full-time focus right now, so I have wide-open availability, including early mornings, midday walks, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I'm very flexible and happy to work around your schedule, whether you need a daily walk, a last-minute drop-in, or overnight house sitting while you're away. Just reach out, and I'll do my best to make it work. I provide all care in your home, so your pet stays comfortable in their own familiar space. Before the first booking, I'll meet you and your pet to learn their routine, feeding and medication schedule, quirks, and your vet's contact info. On walks, I double-check collars, harnesses, and leashes before heading out, and I always keep dogs leashed and under control. Over 8 years running my own pet care business, I kept a 5-star rating and zero safety incidents. I treat your home with the same respect: doors locked, keys secure, everything left the way I found it. You'll get photo updates after every visit through Rover.
About: I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet's unique needs and routine. I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention so pet parents can feel confident while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I have a part time and only work 2-3days a week so I have an open schedule to do a lot of caring for your pet. I have a fenced yard and a dog at home that is playful with everyone.I will also follow each pet's regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by their owner.
About: I have experience with many kinds of animals. I myself have my 13 year old dog Royal, a 11 year old leopard print gecko, and two hermit crabs who are about to turn 6 years old from their time in my care. I also regularly pet sit for my family and friends. A few examples are my friend who owns two Dobermans. My cousins 2 cats. Or occasionally my Mimi’s farm to feed and care for her 8 dogs, her cat, and a donkey and a horse. I don’t have a set schedule at this moment. I am very open, and can do pretty last minute bookings if I do not have other obligations. I unfortunately cannot provide in home services at this time, however in clients homes I will follow whatever rules, schedules and procedures that are given to me. I am also a very outdoorsy and energetic person so playing or being up will not be a problem.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Garland
Once again, Sabrina was awesome!! Our Tucker actually comes out of hiding for her and gets lots of pets while we are gone. Sabrina is dependable, easy to communicate with, and writes the best updates - she gives us a great feel for how our little buddy is doing. She takes out the garbage and cleans up the throw-ups. What's not to love!!!
Emily once again did an incredible job watching my two cats! She always goes above and beyond, even helping me with a house issue and going out of her way to ensure things were in order, plus picking up an additional day when my trip was delayed. Thank you Emily!
Lisa did a wonderful job watching our four cats for 10 days while we were away for the holidays. She provided pictures with every visit and was always quick to respond if any questions/additional communication was needed. We would book here again in a heartbeat!
Absolutely blown away by Melissa’s professionalism! She took great care of my two mischievous rascals. Always on time, many pictures, attention to detail with the love for animals sprinkled on top. Melissa did all that and then some. Highly recommend her services. We’ll be booking her again for sure.

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.

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 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 Meet & Greet .
