“Loved that she did a meet-and-greet beforehand to get to know our pets before we needed them watched, and she even offered to water some plants for us! Would highly recommend.”
“Hailea did a great job with our kitties. One of our kitties loves attention and she was sure to offer it. The other was not as kind and Hailea respected his personal space. She sent photos of both kitties and shared their temperament during her visits. We don't go out of town often, but when we do, we will be requesting her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2019, when I started helping my mom with her dog-sitting business. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and acquaintances, including overnight stays. I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities and energy levels, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique quirks and routine. I’m happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and keeping them company while you’re away. I also have three pets of my own, so I understand how much our furry family members mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can trust. Whether your pup is an energetic ball of zoomies, a professional napper, or a little bit of both, I’m always excited to meet a new four-legged friend! I love a good cuddle buddy just as much as an excited fur baby ready to play, and I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐾💕 Hi! My name is Aurora, and I’m a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets, including experience helping my mom as a Rover pet sitter as well as caring for dogs for family, friends, and other clients. I currently work part-time from Sunday through Wednesday, with shifts that typically fall between 2 PM–10 PM or 4 PM–10 PM. Because of this, I have the most availability Thursday through Saturday, as well as mornings and earlier parts of the day on my workdays. I’m happy to communicate about my schedule ahead of time to make sure I can provide your pet with the time and attention they deserve. Every pet is different, so I believe the best care starts with getting to know their personality and routine. For dogs, a typical visit may look like a potty break, a walk, playing with their favorite toys, spending time outside, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention. Depending on their energy level, we might spend our time going for a longer walk and playing, or we may simply relax together and keep eachother company. For cats, I understand that their needs can look a little different. A typical cat visit may include feeding, refreshing their water, cleaning their litter box, playing with toys, and giving them attention and affection if they enjoy it. Some cats are social and love having someone play with them or give them lots of attention, while others are more independent or shy and prefer to have someone quietly check on them and give them space. I’m comfortable respecting those differences and letting each cat set the pace. I would also be more happy to take care of other small tasks that help keep your pets comfortable while you're away, such as bringing in packages, taking your trash to the curb, or watering plants. If your pet needs medication or has a specific care routine, I’m happy to discuss their needs beforehand.
“Paige was so great!! She updated me every time she was with my pups and made sure they were well taken care of while we were gone. She’s so sweet and caring. Highly recommend!!”
“Margaret does a wonderful job with looking in on our cat when we are away. We appreciate how much he is being loved on when we aren’t home. We will request her again when we need a pet sitter.”
About: I took a very active role in caring for my family dog until he tragically passed from cancer in 2019. I have also dog-sat for neighbors’ pets with particular dietary needs. Currently, I’ve been told by roommates that I have a very calming presence with our house dog. I work part time primarily in the evenings and when not working, I often have community theater rehearsals on weeknights. During the Mizzou school year I will have some classes during the day, though for no more than a few hours at a time. My current house is not available for pet boarding unless specifically negotiated. The property has a non-fenced yard and one resident dog, who does behave well with other animals. Neighborhood is safe, well-paved, and walkable.
About: I have worked in professional pet care for 4 years and have been watching neighbors dogs for the past 2 years. At doggy daycare I have worked with all sizes and ages of dogs and am comfortable with all of them. I am currently and student at The University of Missouri but am still able to come to your house to watch your pet. I can stay at your house during the week or weekend, my classes schedule is pretty full so it might be harder for me to be at your house during the week day but my weekends are typically open and we might be able to work out a schedule for the weekdays! I have three dogs at home that I am very used to taking care of as well as my cat. I can follow your pets schedule so there is no difference in your care and mine.
About: I have experience providing loving, reliable pet care, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and giving every pet plenty of attention, affection, and comfort. I’m currently in school, so I’m available for evening and overnight shifts that extend into the morning, allowing me to provide flexible and reliable pet care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide reliable, attentive care and a loving environment, giving pet parents complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and my kitties mean the absolute world to me. I’ve had cats for 6 years and have lots of friends with dogs that I love to play with and take care of. It would be a pleasure to take care of anyone’s pets and to meet your sweet babies! I work another part time job so I’m some what flexible with my schedule! I can sit for as long as needed per visit and can take care of any animal with all needs met. I can safely take your dog on walks and clean up after them by ensuring their harness is secure and give them all the love they deserve!
“I am satisfied with Janae’s work. I left my cat for a week and the cat is still alive. Lol. She sent photos and answered messages quickly enough. The house was kept clean. I will work with her again. Very respectful, kind & responsible person.”

About: During my time in a Service Fraternity at my university, I volunteered at Animal Care and Control of St. Louis on a weekly basis. The time I spent working here allowed me to gain crucial skills needed for understanding and working with animals. I have also spent time watching cats and dogs for friends while they off on vacation! I start medical school in August, but will have time to watch animals between study sessions and class. Currently, I am working part time as a science teacher at the middle school for summer school and am off at 1:30 pm, Monday through Thursday. Additionally, I have all of July off. I will not be providing boarding services. This is due to physical restrictions that will be imposed on the animal. I would prefer to house sit in a place where the animal is comfortable and less likely to be anxious.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of pets—hedgehogs, geckos, livestock, fish, cats, and dogs. I’m comfortable with unique routines, special needs, and creating a calm, safe environment for every animal. I focus on reliable communication, gentle handling, and making sure each pet feels relaxed and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my college routine. My class schedule is flexible, so I’m able to plan visits, walks, and check-ins around my coursework. I spend a lot of time at home studying, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and companionship. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, walks between classes, or overnight care, I make pet sitting a natural part of my weekly routine. As a pet sitter, I offer both in-home and client's home care. In my home, I provide a comfortable and pet-friendly environment, ensuring their safety and well-being. If caring for pets in the client's home, I'll follow their instructions, maintain their routine, and provide personalized attention to keep them happy and comfortable. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or administering medication, I'll tailor the care to meet each pet's specific needs. 💗
About: Animals have always been my passion, ever since I was young. Having four dogs and two cats at home, I’m experienced in multiple types of pets! Any special requirement for any dog is never too big of a task. Keeping the pet happy and comfortable is my top goal. I have worked with a senior dog, keeping him comfortable and as active as he can be was somethin I took pride in doing, puppies are also no trouble. Entertaining and making sure they potty where they’re supposed to. Messes are no problem though, upset stomachs are something that happen and it’s okay! Accidents happen too and I’m up to cleaning it. My schedule is normally pretty open. I have taken care of three dogs for years, and then having one more to the group to make four. I would be going to your home to help take care of your dog or cat. Keeping them comfortable is my main goal, I always wait with patience and take my time to try to bond with your pet.
About: Reliable and loving pet care for dogs, cats, and horses. I’ll treat your animals like my own while you’re away! I make my own hours so I’m very accommodating. I am currently a full time collage student wanting to spend more time with animals. While being in college i’ve gone back in fourth in my career with nursing and vet tech. I live on a farm and will walk them out daily and they will be living there best life at my house like my own animals do.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Harg
Taylor was amazing with my kitties. I really enjoyed her updates and pictures during her check-ins. She made sure they played, and stayed fed and watered while I was away. I had normal mom anxiety, but Taylor helped to ease any extra by being professional and easy to communicate with. The kitties looked happy to play during her visits. Would choose again. Thanks, Taylor!
Jennifer went above and beyond with caring for my kitty! She helped provide advice when Vesta was seeming sick after I left for my trip and I could not thank her enough for the care that she gave while I was gone. She took so many adorable photos and was very communicative about everything happening.
Hannah was awesome! My cat has chronic health conditions, and she did a great job monitoring symptoms and administering meds when necessary, including keeping me up to date about how my cat was doing every day. Would definitely book her again in the future!

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 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.

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 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.
