“Kristina was amazing with my adult cat. She communicates well, sends photos and videos of my cat, and goes above and beyond in making sure you know your cat is being cared for.”
About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us! I have a dog run (working on fencing our large yard) and three dogs of my own. We have room to crate train if needed, and keep kids and dogs separate should your pup not be kid friendly.
“Evelyn is excellent to work with; Experienced, a "pet-person", trustworthy and flexible. My cat has medical issues which require daily attention and Evelyn was able to handle that easily. My cat was well and happy when I came home. I really like the communication level, Evelyn updated me all the time adding pictures and interacting with my cat. Evelyn also was flexible to unforeseen changes in my travel situation and performed above my expectations! I will call on Evelyn for help again and would recommend her to anyone to do a great job!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Mary! She took amazing care of my cats. She went above and beyond each and every visit. Her communication and commitment are top notch. Towards the end of her visits my VERY shy cats trusted her and that is saying a lot. I would highly recommend her and hope I can book her again in the future. Thank you Mary!!!”
“This was our first time using the Rover platform and we were very happy with the results, and that of course can be pretty much attributed to the great and kind service we received from Joshua. We had a sudden death in the family and needed to travel abroad at short notice and when we put out the request Joshua was very responsive and asked to do a meet and greet before confirming the booking. We thought this was great, as it gave all parties the chance to test the waters, especially our two cats, Karl and Debbie - it gave Joshua a chance to meet them, and them the chance to meet him, and also of course it gave us the chance to meet with Joshua and learn about the process, show him around the house, and make sure all were feeling great. Joshua sent detailed updates along with pictures. We have a very shy little cat, and even though she didn't quite break open her shell and hang out with Joshua, he was very kind in approaching her with caution and waiting around a bit longer to give her the chance to come out. During a period of great pain and grief for our family, Joshua really helped ease our minds when it came to leaving our fur family at home. Thank you Joshua!”
“Peyton provided drop in visits for my elderly Shar Pei for a 10 day vacation. She is priceless. Lots of communication, photos & videos. Yoda loved her. I am sure many times she spent more than the allotted time living on him. She understood & provided for the needs of a senior dog. I definitely recommend Peyton & will call on her again.”
“Cheryl is AWESOME! She was wonderful with our senior cat including being very accommodating to his temperamental ways and also administering medication. Cheryl went above and beyond in every aspect and will be my first contact next time we go out of town.”
“Jessica was great- she maintained communication throughout her drop ins and kept me informed about her visits. She was great about keeping up with the Rover Cards and even left a goody bag at the end of the weekend! Thank you Jessica!”
“A very responsible and thoughtful pet sitter who took great care of our cat. She also kept us updated with daily notes and photos. She reallly eased my mind about taking a trip.”
“My very shy cats warmed up to Chetoya very quickly! She was consistent, thorough and thoughtful in her care. I appreciated her daily photos and check-ins with my two floofs. She always responded immediately if I had questions. Thank you, Chetoya!??”
“I STRONGLY recommend Heather for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to care for their pets. I am so pleased with the care she gave my cats while I was recently on vacation and I will definitely be contacting her first when making future plans. I am thrilled to have found her. Heather’s communication skills are perfect, both before and during my vacation. The reports and pictures she sent each day really eased my worries about leaving my pets for the first time. I didn’t know what to expect. My two cats are very different and I assumed they’d both be scared and hiding all week because neither is very social. But she got to know them (on their terms) and by the end of the week they were actually accepting pets. I was shocked and so pleased. And lastly, Heather is a very smart and kind person, which means a lot to me. In addition to the wonderful care she gave my cats, Heather was also very respectful of my home and of my time.”
“Laura is an A+ pet sitter. She was wonderful with my two very shy cats. She is very conscientious and reliable, and obviously loves animals. I would not hesitate to hire her again to care for my pets.”
About: Growing up in a ranch in Arizona with five dogs (including two great Danes and one Doberman) and eight horses I started caring for animals at a young age. Oral medication or injections are ok, diabetic dogs okay too. I've personally rescued two dogs in Detroit and still have one, Harper, a Staffordshire mix. I love all breeds and do not discriminate. Have a hyper dog? I'll run your buddy all over town along side my bike. Your best friend will get all the same love and care that you give them. Overnight stays will be full of fun and lots of walks. Daytime visits will always be nice long walks with visits to local parks and shopping areas for maximum socialization and puppy excitement.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben was timely, communicative and respectful. My 2 dogs can be a little raucous with short visits and he seemed to handle it with ease. Great price too! I will use him any and every time I can. A+”
“Lauri is great with our cats and we are so happy to have her as our sitter. I always feel at ease leaving our cats in her care, as she is reliable, communicative and thorough. Both of our cats are comfortable with her as well - including one who is aging and has an ever growing list of medications and quirks that Lauri is patient and wonderful about. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi, I’m Megan — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet care provider based in beautiful East English Village. I live with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other calm, respectful pups. I provide a personalized, low-volume boarding experience from my home, where your dog becomes part of our little pack. My services are designed with your pet’s comfort and safety in mind. I only board one guest dog at a time, ensuring constant supervision, individual attention, and a peaceful, low-stress environment. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, a walk while you’re at work, or overnight care, I treat every animal like one of my own — with affection, patience, and professional care. I provide updates with every visit, and I’m happy to accommodate custom routines, feeding schedules, and medication administration when needed. Let’s schedule a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great match! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life — I structure my routine around it. With two dogs of my own, I’m already up early for walks, feeding, and snuggles. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit my boarding and walking services to just a few clients at a time, I’m able to give each pet my full focus without being overbooked or rushed. Whether I’m doing a drop-in visit, hosting a pup overnight, or stopping by for a midday walk, I plan my calendar so your pet gets reliable, unrushed, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in yours. BOARDING AT MY HOME: When boarding in my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment by only accepting one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give each pet plenty of individual attention and supervision throughout the day. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to having guests and do best with other well-mannered pups. I take time to carefully introduce everyone, and I require a meet-and-greet prior to first-time bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up with cozy resting areas, a large and securely fenced outdoor space, and plenty of enrichment opportunities like walks, playtime, and snuggles. I also follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible to make their stay feel familiar and reassuring. FOR DROP INS I aim to maintain your pet’s routine in their own environment, minimizing disruption and providing consistent care. I refresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and always leave your home secure and tidy. I also provide visit updates with photos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Building trust through consistent, compassionate care is what I do best. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, they’ll be treated like family.

Joshua was excellent with the kitties and took great care of my home! He left wonderful updates and pictures every visit, and made sure the shy ones were accounted for and safe. I could tell he really cares about the cats and I’m so appreciative for his care!
Heather was able to respond to a last-minute request and took fantastic care of our two cats! She was reliable and provided detailed updates and photos and even brought her own toys to keep them entertained while we were gone! We will definitely ask Heather to return again
Mary took fantastic care of our cats. She’s so patient with our shy Gus, who has finally decided that Mary is a-ok. Gino, of course, is her biggest fan. We have zero concerns leaving them both in Mary’s care - she provides great updates and pictures and both boys are well loved while we are gone. We can’t ask for more! Mary also went above and beyond taking in very large packages that came while we were away - it is much appreciated. We already have Mary booked for our next trip!
So happy Jillian was available to do stop ins for our 3 cats. She showed them so much love and care, took care of everything we asked and made sure to send us daily notes and photos. Really appreciate the care which went above and beyond and will absolutely book again down the road.
Jenna provided exceptional service taking care of my cats while I was out of town. I really appreciated the pictures from each of her visits and was impressed with the overall cleanliness - one of my cats is a messy eater! - when I returned. I am so grateful to have met Jenna and would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.

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.

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 .
