About: I've been taking care of pets, plants and homes for the last ten years. I believe in having a pet owner coming back to their pet/home in better shape than they left them. I've encountered many different personalities of pets over the years and understand each has different needs and desires. I ensure that the pet is comfortable with the environment and myself by building a relationship of trust. I'm a high school technology teacher enjoying summer break. I've decided to join Rover so I can still work during my down time this summer. I have cared for animals short & long term and have many necessary items like leashes, bowls, foods, bags and more. I have air conditioning for the hot days of summer. Walking your dog helps me live a healthy lifestyle that I enjoy.
“Quianna is awesome! She was very patient with my stubborn husky who definitely made her work for her money. I was pleased with her communication and dedication to make their relationship work. I highly recommend!”
“Suzanne was amazing with my two boxers Brutus and Sadie. Sent lots of pics to us and updated us every day while away on our cruise. They loved her and she brought them toys. Will definitely use her again.”
About: Hi, I'm Ava! I have a deep love for all animals and years of experience caring for many different types of dogs and cats. As a proud pet parent to my spoiled indoor dog, Daisy, I understand exactly how important it is to know your fur babies are safe, happy, and well taken care of while you're away. My schedule is incredibly flexible, giving me plenty of open time to dedicate to your pets whenever you need an extra hand! Whether you are working a long shift, running errands, or heading out of town for vacation, I tailor my visits to match your pet's exact routine: Mid-Day Dog Walking: Is your pup bursting with energy during the workday? I'll come by to get them moving, burn off some energy, and break up their day with a fun, refreshing walk. Puppy & Kitty Drop-In Visits: From playful kittens to energetic puppies, I provide dedicated check-ins to handle feeding, fresh water, quick potty breaks, litter box scooping, and plenty of love and attention. Out-of-Town Vacation Care: Going away for the weekend or a longer trip? I can drop in multiple times a day to ensure your pets maintain their normal routine in the comfort of their own home—giving you total peace of mind while you're gone
“Margaret and Travis were great communicators and took exceptional care of our 2 girls. Great trial run for an extended vacation in the future Thanks so much!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 25 years and have experience with both cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and treat every home and pet with respect. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pets are doing. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can work around your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I’m available on weekends and can often accommodate last-minute requests. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I also have a fenced-in yard for safe, supervised outdoor time if needed for dogs. During each visit, I make sure food and water are fresh, litter boxes or potty breaks are handled, and your pet gets attention based on their personality. I follow all care instructions closely, keep your home secure, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I used to dog sit in college for a few different families with all different breeds and ages of dogs and cats with various needs. I currently work full-time 8-4:30 and available after work. If needed can come on lunch break to check in. I can house sit everyday of the week. If needed I am able to work from home. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have helped train the dogs that we’ve had and help with cleaning the litter boxes for the cats.
“Autumn was great with my two young dogs! She was very communicative and provided pictures and updates. It was wonderful to know that my girls were getting some outside and playtime while I was away for the day. I’ll definitely be reaching out for help with my pups again!! 😊”
About: I have had dogs as a family pet since 2008. Currently have 2 dogs who are very loved and spoiled to death 😊 I started off dog sitting for a family member in 2019 with a senior dog, and then a puppy a couple years later. I have also house/pet sit for a family friend for the past few years as well. They have 4 dogs (ranging from 15 lbs to 100+ lbs) and 3 cats. I have a good rapport with both groups and can provide references if needed! I also have experience with sitting a 1 cat household as well for one of my friends. In my household, my sisters and I have potty-trained and skill-trained every one of our family pets (we have had 4 now). I have experience with giving pets medications as they need following the owner’s specific instructions. Lastly, I have walked dogs of all kinds of sizes (miniature pinscher all the way to a Great Pyrenees). I look forward to helping you with your pet needs!! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday from 10am-7pm. I work at a pretty lenient place that gives me lunch breaks up to an hour and a half long, so in the past if a pet I have watched needs a potty break midday, I can go back on my lunch break to do so. I have availability after getting off from this job as well, so I can accommodate to late nights as well. I don’t work weekends there so I have pretty much open availability every weekend. 😊 I currently live at home with my parents and sisters, so I do not offer pet sitting at my home at this time. I have pet sat for people in different home styles (apartment, single-level home with small yard, two-story home with big yard). I have always followed every owner’s instructions and rules to a T. Every owner has loved my care with their pets and continues to put their trust in me to this day. I have several references that I can provide if needed!
“Vivien is so sweet with my pets and takes great care of them and my house whenever she watches them. She is also super reliable and responsive. Thanks for being such a big help Vivien!”
About: I have helped care for multiple dogs of varying sizes, ages, and breeds. One of my three current dogs is a female Great Dane that I have helped raise since she was just 2 months old! Another one of my current dogs is 12 years old, pushing 13, so I have a lot of experience taking care of elderly animals. In fact, I do not think there has ever been a point in which I have not had a pet in my life! I have three days that are full of classes during the week, as well as a part time job that sends my schedule out weekly. Generally, I can pet sit on weekends, Mondays in the afternoon, and some Fridays. I have the entirety of Ohio State’s campus to explore, as well as some local public parks! While sitting in the past, I have tried to stick to one room as to not invade privacy or let the pet get out of my sight.
“Alexus always takes good care of my dog and plays with him during her visits. Would definitely recommend her to others looking for someone to take good care of their pet!”
“Abbey did an excellent job taking care of my two cats during my 9-day trip. She communicated with me every day she visited, providing updates, photos, and detailed descriptions of how each visit went, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. One thing that really stood out was her patience with my very shy calico cat. By the end of the stay, my calico had come out of her shell enough to let Abbey pet her, which is something I never expected. I highly recommend Abbey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 265 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Genoa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Genoa. On Rover:
- 93% 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.
