“Jenna was amazing with our two large dogs. She came over before the schedule visit to meet the dogs and review instructions. She was prompt on schedule visit times and sent plenty of pics. We know our fur babies were well cared for and can’t wait to have her again!”
“Jackie is so wonderful in taking care of our pup while we’re out. Her updates bring so much sunshine to our days and we know that our dog is in the absolute best hands.”
“My cats absolutely love Kellye! She took the time to get to know each of them, learning their quirks and giving them so much love while we are away! As a pet sitter myself, I know the importance of finding someone you can truly trust with your animals and I am happy I found that in Kellye!! 🥰”
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have grown up with nine family dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and personalities. My experience includes German Shepherds, Shih Tzus, Labradors, and many rescue dogs with mixes including Pit Bull, Chow Chow, Rottweiler, Jack Russell Terrier, and more. Caring for dogs with different temperaments has taught me that every pet has unique needs, and I enjoy getting to know each one's personality. I also volunteered at Second Chance Animal Rescue near Orlando, where I walked and fed dogs, cared for cats, and even looked after the occasional peacock! Although I can't currently have pets of my own because I'm renting, I spend as much time with animals as I can by caring for my sister's dogs, my aunt's Labrador, and pets belonging to friends and family. I'm happy to provide long or short walks and drop-in visits. I love sending photo updates and keeping owners informed throughout every visit, including when I arrive, when I leave, and if I notice anything that should be communicated. I also welcome detailed care instructions because I want to make sure your pet's routine stays as consistent and comfortable as possible. Having cared for dogs with anxiety and PTSD, I understand the importance of patience, staying calm, and earning a pet's trust at their own pace. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower, quieter approach, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. As a graduate student with a part-time job, spending time with animals is one of my favorite ways to recharge during the week. Going for walks, getting outside, and giving pets my full attention is a refreshing break from studying and work, so pet care naturally fits into my routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to walks and drop-in visits without feeling rushed. Whether it's a quick potty break, a long walk, or simply keeping your pet company, I make sure every visit gets my full attention. Caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to, and I love building relationships with both pets and their owners through dependable care, clear communication, and plenty of photo updates. At this time, I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes through walks and drop-in visits. Because of my current housing arrangements, I'm unable to offer boarding in my own home, and my schedule doesn't allow me to provide overnight stays. However, I'm committed to making sure your pet receives attentive, reliable care while you're away. During each visit, I'll follow your pet's routine closely, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind.
“Christian is a faithful and amazing sitter I've trusted for months on end now! He's attentive and caring and he's my go-to sitter for any and every trip or bump in the road!”
“Zoe was incredible with my two cats! She made sure to spend time with my very social fur baby while being patient with the one who’s more shy. Highly recommend her!”
“Peter was wonderful with our dogs. He took care to be sure our Houdini dog was properly secured before letting her out. He gave plenty of loves. He readjusted the throw on the couch to make sure it remained free from drool and fur. He even included a photo of our ducks one day, even though they weren’t his responsibility for care. Peter stayed in touch via text every visit. I will be booking him again for our future travels.”
“Trinity was great with our pets! She communicates well, she's consistent, very patient, and truly cares for animals. We feel so comfortable and confident using her services again in the future. We appreciate everything you've done for our family. Thank you!”
“They came to meet and greet Molly, to bond with her before they began walking her. They followed every detailed instruction I left for them while I was away, including feeding my fishes besides going for a walk with Molly. I was away for 7 days and Molly was in high spirits when we came back! Highly recommend.”
“Thank you Erika for taking care of my precious baby. She made sure Milo was taken care of and played with every single visit. Reassured me that Milo was doing okay by sending pictures and videos. I even started noticing Milo was getting more comfortable more and more each visit with her which made me happy. She accommodated me when I needed to add an extra day of drop in visits at the last minute. Overall, I am pleased to say that I have found a great reliable sitter for my fur baby.”
“She took great care of Nudy while I was away. I really appreciated the detailed updates, photos, and notes after each visit. Nudy looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and I could tell she gave him lots of attention. I would definitely book with her again!”
“You are an absolute doll and a very kind young lady. Everything you did brought a smile to my face and heart. Thank you for coming on short notice. I will definitely call you again. 🥰”
“Kelley did a great job caring for our kitty! She kept us updated consistently and was super flexible when we extended our trip. We really appreciated her caring for our fur baby!”
“Sherry went above and beyond!! I came home to two happy cats and tidy litter boxes. She even fixed the annoying automatic feeder with no complaints. She’s bright and cheerful, it was lovely! Thank you Sherry!”
“This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our 8 month old kitty. Brooke was amazing! She kept us updated the whole time and after the first two days when our kitty was no longer coming out of hiding when she would visit she let us know that he was still eating his treats, using the litter box and moving his blanket around. She even stopped by our house early one morning just to confirm that he did in fact eat the treats she left out because we were a little nervous about where he was since he hadn’t been spotted. She also kept the food and litter area clean and even left a little goodie bag for our kitty! We definitely recommend Brooke and will be using her again!!”
“Glees was amazing to work with. Super sweet gal. She always communicated with me right away. She sent me pictures of my kitty cat daily and made me feel good the whole time I was away! Will definitely use again! 😊😊😊”
About: I’ve watched family and friends pets over the years when they need a hand. I even worked with a dog trainer for a summer! I currently have two part time jobs and I’m also an actor. I can provide pet care before and after work. I can drop in and give your dog a walk when needed! Or that little bit of exercise to get their energy out. I will stick to your dogs tried and true routine! Provide them with extra care and ensure a safe and fun environment whilst you’re away or busy.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Goldenrod
She was fantastic! She took great care of feeding a feral cat at our home while we were away and even stayed to make sure the cat came by to eat. She was kind, dependable, and caring, which gave us real peace of mind. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her!
I cannot recommend Zoe highly enough. From the moment I entrusted my three cats to her care, I knew they were in excellent hands. One of my cats, Hope, has special medical needs and requires nebulizer treatments. She handled those treatments with confidence, patience, and ease, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away. It's not easy to find someone who is both capable and comfortable providing that level of care. Beyond meeting their physical needs, she genuinely spent quality time with all three of my cats. She played with them, gave them attention and affection, and treated them as if they were her own. It was clear from the photos and updates she sent that she truly cared about their well-being and happiness. She was consistently punctual, reliable, and professional. Every visit was communicated clearly, and I received thoughtful updates and pictures each time, which meant so much to me. As a pet parent, especially to a cat with medical needs, that level of communication is invaluable. What sets her apart is her empathy and genuine love for animals. She doesn't simply "check in" on pets, she cares for them. Knowing my cats were safe, loved, and receiving excellent care allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without worry. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, dependable, and exceptional with animals, I would recommend her without hesitation.
Jazzlyn is super communicative and responsive, and she took great care of my two kitties, including my high needs senior cat who needed medication twice daily. She fearlessly administered it for him, which is exactly what he needed. She even spent extra time with him so he wouldn’t feel so lonely. I highly recommend!
Jackie did a fantastic job of taking care of our kitties, our house, and our peace-of-mind while we were traveling. It is so comforting to know when your pet sitter arrives, to get an immediate report with loads of photos, and know that everything and everyone is being taken care of. Words cannot adequately express how happy we are with Jackie's service, and we enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of pet sitting services.
Lilliana was incredibly sweet and both of our cats immediately liked her during the meet and greet which was great! She’s one of the few Rover sitters on here that isn’t dedicated to just dogs, and has provided care for a variety of different animals. She was able to provide oral liquid medication for my special needs boy, which I greatly appreciate! She sent cute pictures and updates during her visits. We will definitely be booking her again!
Lexus was the best cat sitter we have ever had! She was very organized, professional, and loving towards our animals. She used great judgement to resolve any issues between our two cats, as we adopted a kitten recently and our older cat is still adjusting. We will definitely be working with Lexus 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Goldenrod. On Rover:

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.
