About: We’ve always had dogs and cats growing up, so pet have always been a regular part of my everyday life! I know that sometimes this little things like walks or consistent feeding schedules can be the hardest part of having a pet! Allow me to take that weight from your shoulders! I have extensive experience with large dogs and puppies as well! I regularly housesit for homes with multiple animals and multiple species; dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, gerbils, and hamsters too! I’m currently working part time, but planning and scheduling are important to me. I am more often available in the mornings any day of the week. I value being consistent and reliable so I will only post availability that I’m sure will work! I will make sure to bring your pet everywhere with me! Clingy pets are my bread and butter! I have no problem hanging out as long as needed to always have an eye on your pets when they are in my care.
“Kaitlin is wonderful! Our cat is incredibly picky about people, but Kaitlin managed to make friends with her quickly. She sent very thorough updates and great photos, which was really comforting during our long trip. We’re so grateful for her!”
“Bito did an excellent job taking care of Sgt Pepper. My boy was happy and looked well taken care of when I got home. Excellent communication throughout my vacation.”
“Ana took great care of my cats! She sent lots of pictures of them while I was away. They were well taken care of and got lots of pets and treats.”
“Casie took great care of my cat and was respectful of my home! She was great at keeping me up-to-date on how my cat was doing by sending texts, pictures, and videos. My cat was taken care of so well that he acted like he didn’t realize we had left him for a few days.”
“Thank you for taking great care of my cats over a long period of time. I truly appreciated your reliability and would not hesitate to contact you again in the future.”
“Tabitha took great care of my needy and noisy older cat with separation anxiety. It’s great to know I can leave her in experienced hands. Would love to book again if she’ll have us!”
“Hannah was fabulous. Because I had a sick kitty, she came over twice to go over his medication so she was comfortable medicating Tribble. Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to Tribble (Rainbow Bridge) the day before I was to leave on vacation. She was great being flexible and sympathetic. My two remaining babies were well cared for. Hannah followed my "directions" perfectly and sent as many pix of my babies that I wanted. She even took pix of my shy baby under the bed where he was hiding! I would highly recommend Hannah for your pet sitter.”
“We had a great experience with Yeji! She took wonderful care of our cats and followed all of our instructions perfectly, including their different feeding routines. She was reliable, communicative, and made it easy for us to enjoy our trip without worrying about the cats. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Sylvia did a wonderful job again. The kitties love her. I think she must bathe in catnip lol. They really have fun with her. She takes great pics and leaves my home in great shape. I always try to book with her when I'm out of town.”
“I appreciated Keira's cheery disposition and professionalism. She was quite knowledgeable about animals in general because of her regular profession and that helped put me at ease. I would book with her again.”
About: I have been trusted to take care of family and friends' pets for a longgg time. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of kitties and walking dogs ≽(•⩊ •マ≼ I'm currently working part time in the evenings, so I am available for all your pets needs. So, my preferred is in the day time and overnight stays. I am very conscientious of being in someone's home and I would go above and beyond in terms of dog, cat, (and plant) care!
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over 15 years, beginning from childhood. I’ve raised cats, dogs and bunnies and have taken care of exotic animals such as iguanas! I’m employed full-time but as a hybrid worker, my job is very flexible! I understand that life happens, I’m able to accommodate last minute requests as needed :-). I currently live in a building that has two dog parks as well as plenty of open area to take the dogs out for walks as needed. We also have a doggy bath area so I can also give your fur baby a spa day if needed!
“Christine was kind and personable, and took good care of my cat while I was on vacation. She also watered my flowers and brought in my mail for me. I’m so grateful for Christine’s services, and will definitely ask for her help again! Thanks so much, Christine!😊”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a proud cat parent to my own cat, I know how much peace of mind matters when you have to leave your furry family members behind. While I'm new to the Rover platform, pet care is second nature to me—back in college, I regularly helped my classmates with pet sitting, looking after both dogs and cats. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs some gentle loving attention, I treat every pet with the exact same care and devotion I give my own. Because I work remotely and part-time from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I am basically free and can easily find time for your pet any day or any time. Whether it's a mid-day walk or constant companionship, we can easily figure out a routine that works best for you and your pet! Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Whether I am dropping in for pet sitting or taking your dog out for an engaging walk, I treat every pet with the utmost care and respect. As an experienced cat owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to respect an animal's boundaries, safety needs, and home environment. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable updates, and treating your home and pets like my own.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gwynn Oak
Erika was wonderful with my two kitties! They were going through a finicky stage so I had to transition them to a raw diet which was a bit detailed. Erika followed everything to the letter! I love that she sent me daily photos. It was very much appreciated! Thank you Erika for giving the love and care ❤️
Brenay is a gem! She was easy to work with from start to finish. She came for a meet and greet, followed all instructions, and most importantly took great care of our kitty. She sent pictures, was super communicative, responsive, and problem solved on her own when little things popped up. She also left the house as she found it. We will certainly use her again!
Anna is for real, the best! Every time we need to leave our boys at home we ask her to watch them because we love her so much! She’s always on time, sends lots of pictures, and takes care of our furry guys like they were her own. We would pick Anna over any other pet sitter or kennel every time.

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 .

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