About: Hi! I am a stay-at-home mom of a human baby and two fur babies. I previously worked in upstate NY for a dog training company, My Dog Hikes, as a dog hiker where we took dogs from NYC into the woods for full day dog-care fun. Because of this I am comfortable giving medication and using training commands. I also have a Cattle Dog (Clayton) and Black Lab mix (Tarzan) of my own. I would love to take your little ones on the trails, play fetch in the yard, or just snuggle on the couch with lots of pets. I have a very open schedule so can work around any timeframe you need! As childcare is very expensive, please note before booking me that my son, Eli (3), will be joining me on my jobs. We can always meet beforehand to see if it's a good fit! Additionally - I do not accept requests for recurring weekly services and prefer them to be sporadic. As I am a stay-at-home mom your typical work week is when I am available. I can be flexible around your schedule! I can also stop by to spend some time with your pets on the weekend, so you can go enjoy a trip away. (: I do not care for dogs in my own home as my Lab does not like other dogs. In your home, however, I take care to follow all instructions closely! I take many pictures so prepare for cuteness overload. I also have experience working with a dog training/walking company in NYC and am comfortable with a wide array of needs.
“Anna always follows directions and makes sure all pets are taken care of fully. We are always confident that our pets will get the best attention while we are away on vacation when we book Anna! We highly recommend Anna for any pet care needs!”
“Absolutely amazing! My cat is an elder cat and has never been anywhere without me before. So I was nervous sending her away for a bit. But she did so well and I constantly got update pictures which I really appreciated. I highly suggest booking them for pet care needs if you need to go away on a trip”
“Constance spent a great deal of time at our meet and greet getting to know our dogs and me as the dog mom. I was so comfortable after that first meeting I asked her to check in on our cats that week! When I tell you she got the best photos of our “large and not so in charge” cat Henry Purrito…well, it made us happy. I could tell they were well cared for and happy. She’s responsive to requests, flexible and dependable. I’m looking forward to her walking our dogs five days a week!”
About: I have raised a puppy, and also dog-sat and cat-sat many times. I do have one cat living with me now and love all animals. I work from home M-F 7-3 but my schedule is flexible, I can take long lunches or leave early if needed. I can also take my laptop on the go if necessary to provide company for your pet. Regular feeding and walks for dogs or interaction for cats. Positive reinforcement. Regularly cleaning litter box. Keeping their water refilled and fresh. Also lots of play/cuddles.
“Kaylie was amazing with our four felines! They're a bit picky and I always have a little nervousness about whether they'll be aloof or interact with their sitter. All four of our girls were at ease around her and did really well, even the two who are on meds and can be really finicky. Kaylie is prompt, a great communicator, and incredibly reliable. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting your pets to be cared for as family.”
About: I have lived with animals most of my life. While I currently do not own a pet, I have continued to surround myself with the animals of my friends and family. I started cat-sitting 2 years ago. When I pet sit, I aim to ensure a great experience for my furry friends. I am currently working part-time as an Occupational Therapist (OTR/L) and am flexible in my hours. I am currently a part-time Occupational Therapist, so I have flexibility in my schedule to take care of your furry friend. I have my own transportation as well. I work hard to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your animal in their home environment. A detailed description of your animal's needs is much appreciated.
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs for over 24 years and truly enjoy caring for them. Every pet is different. Some are playful and full of energy, others are quiet and gentle, and I’m happy to adjust to what they need. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I offer overnight house sitting so your pet can stay relaxed at home while you’re away. I follow your instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and do my best to give your pet plenty of attention and calm, loving care I currently work part-time, so I have flexible availability for pet care. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays after 2 pm. When I’m house sitting, I plan my schedule around your pet’s routine so they get the attention, walks, and care they need. When caring for pets in your home, I try to keep their routine as normal and calm as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any special instructions. I treat your home with respect, keep things clean, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable.
“Erica is the best! She went above and beyond caring for my little guy while I was away. I really appreciated all of the updates and pictures she provided. Felt comforted being away and I know my kitty got the best care! Book with her!”
“Princess help me out tremendously for my 30 day trip abroad. Did two weekly visits and followed the -admittedly- overly specific instructions required for all of my cats including their food, litter-robot, and more. Made my trip so much less stressful!”
“We were able to book on short notice after procrastinating on whether to try Rover… glad we found Kimberly! Easy communication throughout the process from coordinating initial meet up to additional details. Our three cats were happy and healthy when we came home - would book again”
“Hailey & Joshua did a fantastic job of watching my cat while I was away. He tends to have stranger danger but with their special touch, he warmed right up to them. I really appreciate all the care and attention they gave my cat. I would highly recommend them!”
“Sara took great care of our babies! She sent lots of pics and played with them and gave them treats. It was our first time leaving our kittens and having her check on them brought me so much peace of mind. Will definitely be reaching out to her the next time we leave town!”
“Katherine did an exceptional job taking care of my two cats. One takes medication and can be fussy, she was able to get her to take her meds. When there were questions, the communication was prompt. Thanks again!”

Gina has always exceeded our expectations when caring for our two cats. This is her third time visiting our little babies and each time we leave them we can breathe knowing they will be taking care of by her. If you’re are debating whether to book her, DONT. There’s no one we would rather book with to watch our cats. We brag about her to all our friends. Thanks Gina.

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 .
