About: I have training certificates for Pillars and Harmony from Victoria Stilwell Academy for Dog Training and Behavior. I walk, behavioral train, & do dog sitting. I am working on getting my home approved, but for now only at client’s home. I will be making schedule available to first come first serve. Same day cancellation will possibly give others a chance to book same day if still needed. I am happy to care for your pet as instructed and requested to. My phone line will be open for communication throughout the time of care. With client permission and/ or request, I could also take and send pictures to you throughout the time of care.

“Calie is very sweet and thoughtful. She always goes above and beyond . I've had other cat sitters but not as helpful as she is. I wanted to leave a larger tip but there was a limit. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve spent more than 20 years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for senior and special-needs pets, administering oral and injected medications, and keeping up with high-energy dogs who need plenty of exercise and play. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely and treat them like I would my own, with lots of attention, affection, and regular photo updates while you’re away. I currently work part time in customer service, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting. I’m happy to spend time playing, giving affection, keeping pets company, maintaining their normal routines, and making sure they receive plenty of attention while their family is away. For me, pet sitting is much more than simply stopping by to feed an animal. I genuinely enjoy building a relationship with the pets I care for and making sure they feel happy, loved, and comfortable until their family comes home. I’ve always had a special connection with animals and truly enjoy being around them. I love getting to know each pet’s personality, routine, quirks, and favorite things so I can make their time with me feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including seniors. My own Chihuahua lived to be 22 years old, so I understand firsthand how much patience, consistency, and extra attention older animals can need. That experience gave me an even deeper appreciation for the responsibility that comes with caring for someone’s pet. I’m also very mindful of safety and cleanliness in both my everyday life and in clients’ homes. I carefully follow care instructions, keep an eye on changes in behavior or needs, and make sure pets are comfortable and their environment is clean and secure.

About: I've worked with special needs animals all my life from tri-pawds, deaf, and blind animals to those with dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, anxiety, and sensitivity to stimuli. Currently I am also employed by a farm that has working breads for dogs and barn cats. I work with a changing and flexible schedule and three days off per week, leaving me plenty of time for checking in on your furry friend. My animals have special dietary needs along with special care for allergies and sensitive skin. They receive joint supplements, specially vetted foods, special bathing requirements, and seasonal medications. I'm well versed at the care special needs animals require because of this.

“Haydn was wonderful with our dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure they were comfortable and well taken care of. She kept us updated, followed instructions perfectly, and gave our pups lots of attention and love. We came home to happy dogs and everything exactly as we left it. We would absolutely trust her to watch them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!”

About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech

Paesha is the perfect sitter for my two cats! They are shy and slow to open up to new people, but she was able to help them feel comfortable within a few visits. She follows care directions perfectly and went above and beyond with her attention to care and detail for my babies. I would highly recommend her for any pet needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
