“Lori is AMAZING!! She was so patient with my "special/difficult" dog and really went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable and that I was comfortable leaving for the week! I would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking to have their fur baby cared for!”
About: From dogs and cats to bunnies, I know exactly what it takes to keep your pets happy and healthy. I’m fully confident with feeding schedules and medications, and I’m always learning more to provide the best care for small animals of all kinds. I have a few pets myself and know how to take care of them..i just started rover but have been taking care of animals for years. I know there are a lot of more qualified people out there but please give me a chance I won’t let you down I promise 💓 Because pet care is my full time career, my schedule is completely open and dedicated to providing your pets with consistent, round the clock attention and specialized care. For your peace of mind and your dog's safety, I provide all care right in the comfort of your own home, and I always have a trusted backup ready to help if your pup ever needs an extra hand.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, and other animals (snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters, tarantulas) for about 18 years. I’ve always had pets and friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets when they were away. I’ve owned cats with kidney disease and my dog has an autoimmune disease, so I have experience with taking care of sick animals. I’m able to administer oral medications, ear and eye drops/cleaning, subcutaneous fluids. I’m a registered nurse currently working part time night shift at the hospital, but I make time to care for my own dog and cat. On my days off, I have plenty of time to care for other animals! I can only do drop-in visits, walks, or doggy day care/boarding at my home as I can’t stay nights away from my own animals. I would always want to do meet and greets first to make sure my animals get along with clients, but I can accommodate separating them in my house between the upstairs and finished basement.
About: I have taken care of cats of every kind since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their beloved pets. Whether it is providing routine care, administering medication, or simply offering plenty of extra affection and playtime, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 2pm. I can also do drop-in visits during the day if needed, and I'm happy to provide updates and photos to keep you informed about your pet's well-being. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed, and I ensure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I am also comfortable administering medication and following specific dietary instructions to maintain your pet's health and routine.
About: I bring breadth and depth of experience: 1. Red Cross Cat & Dog First Aid Course Certified 2. 27+ combined years of dog, cat, lizard, and fish sitting 3. 27+ combined years of parenting: • 2 Akitas • 1 Husky • 2 rescued German Shepherd mixes (Doberman, Beagle) • 1 Maine Coon • 1 Tabbie 4. Experienced with: • giving medications to cats and dogs • caring for elderly cats and dogs (e.g. dementia) • post-surgery recovery care (e.g. torn ACL) • bathing and brushing dogs I work remotely so I’m able to work from anywhere with a relatively stable annd fast internet connection. I’m able to take a few minutes here and there to stand up and step away to give potty breaks. I’m happy to sit on the couch and keep your animals company. I care for pets as if they were my own, and as I would want someone to take care of mine. I know it’s hard to leave them in the care of others when you have to. I text photos (usually cute and/or funny) with them to let pet parents know I’m talking good care (and we’re not having friends over for a party).
About: Hello my name is Kerri, I have grown up with animals most of my life, I've dealt with animals in many different sizes, I currently have 3 dogs and 6 cats. I do have experience walking dogs, bathing them, as well as bathing cats. I volunteer at Animal Welfare League of Trumbull County, I have been volunteering here for past few months. I'm currently getting my certification for Interior Designer, I'm normally working on a flexible schedule. I don't take any pets on Sundays. I will make sure that any pet in my care is getting their daily needs, also if there is any certain task that needs to be done like dishes or small things that can make your day easier. So that you can enjoy your time with your pets when you get home.
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my two Australian Shepherds every day. I understand the importance of exercise, attention, and routine, especially for active breeds. I treat every dog like my own with patience, love, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am a substitute teacher and cheerleading coach so my schedule is always flexible and helps me work around other people‘s schedules as well! I will make sure to use clear communication with the owner when taking care of one’s pet in their home to make sure all procedures are being followed to ensure the safety of myself and their pet.
About: I became a dog sitter when my Husband was working in the Military. His friends and workers would all need to go see family and could not always take their animals. So I became known as their extra Pet mommy. Even after my Husband got out of the ARMY, We saw a old comrade I sat for, and they said their dog doesn't like their new sitter. She was sad I left. We saw them in EPCOT of all places. It was nice to know they liked me. I am available all day to come and walk or play, or even just sit with your puppies or kitties. I have my own transportation and am reliable. I never leave the pet alone. we play and cuddle a lot. I take care of their area and their meds if needed as well. I am currently working part time so I will have time to play and cuddle with your pets all the time. It will be my pleasure. I am always watching to make sure they don't get into something they shouldn't be eating or playing with. I love to take walks and play.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Girard
Kaitlin is just wonderful! She dropped in twice a day to feed and care for my 4 cats while we were gone for 8 days. The furr babies just loved her and met her at the door every time. She was excellent at sending pictures of my "pride", feeding, cleaning bowls and boxes and even took the garbage out to the outside garbage can so the kitchen didn't smell off canned cat food! She was so prompt at taking in the mail and packages off the porch. If you want a conscientious cat/dog sitter, don't hesitate to call Kaitlin and Joe. I give them an A+++.

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 .
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.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
