About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. (my soul dog’s ashes are in my paw tattoo 🐾🩷) I grew up with Rottweilers and currently have two of my own, Gino & Haus, they're my whole world! I also have a handful of kitties🥰 My passion for animal care goes back as far as I can remember. From baby videos of me crawling on my dog and giving him a big hug & kiss, to completing a veterinary training class in 10th grade, where I learned the basics of animal health and handling! There even was one time I rescued two dogs on the side of the highway who had dug out of their backyard!! I now have about 3.5 years of hands-on experience working with animals, including two years at doggy daycares, where I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they're my own and I always try my best to give them a safe, loving, reliable person they can trust just as much as they trust you, no matter how long it takes them to warm up to me. Working with animals is more than just a job to me—it's what I love, and I plan to make it my lifelong career. I work at a doggy daycare with a flexible schedule, so my availability varies from week to week. I am almost always able to stay overnight for house sitting, and depending on my work schedule, I can spend all day, all morning, or all afternoon and evening with your baby. I always try to spend as much time as I can with your baby. (leaving work is as hard as you can imagine) My most common shift is 1:00 PM–7:00 PM, though I can also work morning, afternoon, and split shifts, though the weekday morning shifts are extremely rare. My weekday shifts are never longer than 6.5 hours, and the only time I may be away for up to 10 hours is on the occasional Saturday when I'm scheduled for a longer shift. On Sundays, I usually work split shifts, which means I'm able to come home and spend about 2½ hours with your pet between work periods. If it's a good fit for your baby and you're comfortable with it, I'd also be happy to talk about bringing them with me to my work so they can enjoy extra socialization, enrichment, and attention, while never leaving my side! I'm committed to keeping your babies routine as normal as possible and will always communicate my schedule ahead of time so you know exactly what to expect!! Your babies safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority. I love to take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and other special needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, as if you haven’t even left! I am experienced in administering medications, following food schedules, and providing extremely gentle and personal care. Walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I'll always make sure your baby gets plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection (and making sure they know it!!) while I keep their routine as normal and consistent as I possibly can! I treat every pet as if they were my own, and pay close attention to their behavior so I can quickly notice and respond accordingly with any changes or concerns. You will also always get regular updates and photos about how they were and their day!
“Alisha is amazing, a life saver to us! Our anxious Boston Terrier can not be boarded, thankfully Alisha’s patience and loving nature were n our girl over so we can go on a vacation 🤗we love Alisha, and so does Katie!!🐾”
About: A couple of months after we married my husband adopted our first dog, Sandy, and I’ve been hooked ever since. That was 26 years ago. Both of my sons are adults now so I have free time to focus my attention on your baby. Your baby will have my undivided attention. My property is fenced and I will accompany your baby outdoors. We can play fetch or simply keep each other company. I will do what it takes to make your baby comfortable and happy.
“Kelly did an excellent job with our crew of two cats, two dogs and a guinea pig. She sent lots of pictures and you could tell they were having fun when she stopped in. Will book again next time!”
“Brandie checked in on our cat, Max, for four days last week. She did an outstanding job taking care of Max! It was nice to know he was in great care with her and we didn't have to worry about him. We won't hesitate to use Brandie again on future trips.”
“Grace was amazing! She was so attentive to my two cats and very communicative with me while I was gone. I will definitely ask for Grace the next time I need to leave my fur babies at home.”
“Lorrie is amazing, I'm so happy we found her! She took care of our four cat kiddos on super short notice, and made sure our eldest gal, Frankie, got her daily thyroid medicine. We loved the sweet photo updates and had so much peace of mind knowing that everyone was well taken care of! We'll definitely be reaching out to Lorrie again for future trips!”
“Danielle has done a wonderful job of caring for our kitties when we are out of town. I feel better knowing she is there to give them snuggles when we can’t . We will continue to have Danielle visit when we are out of town.”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life. I am very good with animals! I am happy to feed and play with your pet! I also have experience caring for disabled and aging pets and am able to administer any needed medication! I currently work on the week days only. So my weekends are completely free to play and take care of your pet! I will be sure to give them lots of love and attention! I will treat your pet like my own and ensure their happiness and safety! I also follow any rules, expectations, or instructions you have given me!
About: I have had corgis, very pushy dogs, my entire life. I have had puppies and elder dogs and have taken care of them and walked them through it all. I work more in the afternoon and night as a an employee at Plato’s closet so my availability is more in the mornings! I am very flexible and don’t mind sleeping at hosts’ houses even if it’s a week day! I am always ready to play with the dogs or just cuddle with them! Whether that be playing or laying, I will keep the dogs comfortable no matter what.
“Ashley was great with our babies while we were away. She sent photos and an update after every visit. Having someone you can trust with not only your pets but also your home is a huge blessing. We will definitely be using her services again!!”
“Grace was patient and calm with Bailey, who’s a bit skittish and unsure with new people. Bailey relaxed around her quicker than she does with most people. Thanks Grace!”
“Caitlyn was very reliable and communicative during the stay. She got back to me on short notice and made sure Remy was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Caitlyn. The pictures were too cute. Thanks Caitlyn!”
“Absolutely phenomenal as a sitter! Took wonderful care of our two very different cats and gave great updates and photos of them at each visit. The pets loved her. Will absolutely use Brianna again on our next trip!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Glenwillard
Kelly was a fantastic sitter. I was very anxious about leaving my cats for such an extended period of time as we had just had to put one of our cats to sleep end of April. Kelly was communicative with us, she also brought in packages and took out the garbage as needed. She won over our Ginger cat who was acting shy around her. We came back to clean litter boxes and both of our cats were in good shape. She was wonderful and I would recommend her to anyone.
Stephanie was a fantastic cat sitter! It was clear from the meet and greet that she knew how to interact with pets unfamiliar with her (she also got to meet my dog), and she even understood the strict diet my cat has for a food allergy. When two days before my vacation my cat suddenly needed to go on liquid steroids, Stephanie was up to the task! She was very communicative about the medication progress as well as how my cat was doing. Stephanie even went above and beyond with little things to make sure my cat and house were okay over the 8 day booking. I will absolutely use Stephanie again and highly recommend her!
Corinne is truely an exceptional Pet Sitter. She was our best Christmas present, as we booked her last minute (after a scheduled visit was cancelled). Our 20 yr. old kitty, normally pretty shy with strangers, fell in love with her on 1st meeting and let Corinne hold & pet her on every visit. She was the best communicator, sending lots of pictures and short messages. We are so happy and thankful to have found Corinne and will definitely book her again!
Margaret took excellent care of our 3 kitties! She understands what cats need -- from the fun things like cuddling & playing with them to watching out for their safety. Margaret communicated clearly and was a joy to work with. What a gift to be able to leave home for over 2 weeks and know that I didn't have to worry about our cats. Many thanks to Margaret for a professional job. I'll definitely book her again.

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.

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.
