About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, rodents, reptiles, and other animals of all kinds. Growing up, my family had numerous animals over the years that I assisted in training and caregiving. I have two pups of my own that were both rescued and trained. I am familiar with dogs who are reactive or have behavior problems. I trained my dogs in basic commands, agility, and search and find. I treat all animals like they are my own, so please contact me if there is anything special about your pet that I should know! I am currently taking some time off from work, so I have plenty of free time to spend with your fur babies. I am always happy to provide extra pets and snuggles to those who love a little extra attention. If there are any specifics I need to know about you, your home, or fur baby, please let me know, and I will happily accommodate.
“Michelle was wonderful with our little scaredy cat, Ninja. She actually was able to get some photos of her and saw her a few times. Usually the sitters never see her. Ninja was much calmer when we got home than previous trips. Knowing that Michelle is watching our furbaby really helped us relax on our trip. We will certainly use her again!!”
About: Raised around dogs my entire life, my family and friends have consistently trusted me to care for their canine family. I have a two year old GSD of my own whom I share with my best friend who is the sweetest and most loving dog you will ever meet. Pet sitting is a priority on my schedule, so I will always find the time that is necessary to advocate for you and your pets! I always start my routine by opening doors slowly to make sure nobody escapes. I clean litter boxes daily, even if it isn’t necessary. For male cats, I am always making sure they’ve used the restroom within the past 24 hours, in order to avoid urinary tract issues. If the kitty doesn’t seem to be in a playful mood, I always make sure to maintain space to allow them to approach me on their own accord. I have two female cats of my own, and all of my daily sitter habits reflect to them as well. I go above and beyond to make sure your furry friends are safe and happy.
“Great drop-in visit with Rory! Even went above and beyond, by refreshing our dog's water bowl without being asked, and sent the cutest photos of the puppers. Would definitely book again!”
“Alex has been amazing! He has gone above and beyond our expectations in taking care of our puppy and adult dog. We trust him in our home and the communication has been great. We get pictures ever visit and we know our pets are in good hands.”
“Willow was fantastic! Both of my kitties immediately liked her and felt comfortable with her! That’s really all I can ask for but she also followed my feeding instructions to a T, and was very respectful of my space- even cleaned their food bowls for me before she left on her last visit! I will definitely be a repeat client 😄”
“Rachel is our new trusted pup sitter! This was my first time using Rover and scrolling through so many options was a lot but I’m glad I chose Rachel. If you want the perfect pet sitter, stop right here and choose Rachel! I have 2 senior dogs. I was looking for someone to not only care for my pups but also connect with them and give them love. When Rachel arrived, the first thing she did was love on my pups and began to connect with them. She followed all of my instructions and arrived on time. She was also very responsive which shows me this is important to her. I always feel guilty for having to leave my pups but I love that Rachel was reassuring, she understands. I trust Rachel and I highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m an avid animal lover and have had dogs my entire life. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and cozy cuddle sessions. My goal is always to make you and your pet feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away! I work regular weekday hours and have weekends off, so my routine is pretty consistent. Pet care would fit in really easily, morning and evening walks, feeding, and playtime would be part of my day. With free weekends, I’d have plenty of time for longer walks, adventures, and lots of quality time. I love dogs and really miss having pets, so taking care of one would be something I’d genuinely enjoy and look forward to! 🐶 We have a house with a gated backyard, giving dogs space to explore, play, and enjoy fresh air in a secure area. I also live close to several parks and a greenbelt, so I love taking dogs on walks, nature outings, and giving them plenty of exercise based on their needs. If I am taking care of your pet in your home I will make sure to follow their routine to make sure your fur baby is relaxed and comfortable and follow any additional instructions provided!
“Grant did a great job! He stopped by my place to walk my dogs. My one and half year old pit mix Luna has a ton of energy and he didn’t have any issues with her. I would totally use him again if he’s available.”
“Christian is an amazing sitter. I had her come in for my first drop in for my two French bull dogs. Not only did my dogs immediately take to her calm demeanor, she got right down on the floor to greet them. One of my dogs is a bit picky and sometimes won’t eat. Christian hand fed her as I had instructed if she was not eating by herself. Both my dogs were happy and well taken care of. I ABSOLUTELY will rebook again when needed. Thank You Christian for being a Great and Amazing Dog Sitter!!”
“My boys LOVE Michelle! We left for a week and she took great care of my boys. I’m amazed she was able to get my little mix Jack out there with of his kennel without me there. He doesn’t come out for anyone. He went outside, played ball and allowed her to love in him! She took care and loved my boys the I do. I highly recommend Michelle. Dogs know shes a dog lover and love her back.”
“We couldn’t recommend Maura more highly! Our furry kids, Asta and Spencer, were in great shape and happy to see us when we returmed! Frequent daily check-ins and pictures made our vacation a breeze. Even our house was super clean! Thank you again!!”
“My 2 dogs loved Christa instantly. They felt how comfortable I was with her presence and now I look forward to booking her again. She is a courteous & professional person who goes above and beyond her work.”
“Kayla was very attentive with chicken, chicken enjoyed her treats and pet pets. Everything went according to plan. Will request Kayla to visit kitties again in the future.”
“Maia is awesome! She came through for us just 1 day before our week long trip and took excellent care of Mamacitas while we were gone. Sent me lots of pics and kept me updated. Mamas was in great spirits when we got home. Would definitely book again!”
About: Located at Hills of Bear Creek, in a quiet neighborhood and fenced yard. There is a walk trail nearby. I am home almost 24/7, with the surveillance on 24/7 for everybody’s safety and pets’. I love animals, they will be treat like they are my own. I will try my best to stick to the routine that your pet is used to, that means I will follow any rules you have for them. I love to go on a lot of walks. I can bring your pet along if they like to walk or run. It depends on their stamina, personality, and routine you have for them. However, I will never go for walk in the dark. They will never be outside unsupervised, even though I own a fenced yard. That is against rover rules and I will abide by it. I always have bowls for water and foods, toys, and treats or bones available if needed. I will also cook real meat or vegetables meals if your pets need them. , please do discuss with me any further about this if this service is required About me: I am a stay home mom with children. When I grew up, I had variety animals. I once owned a monkey, fox, cat, dog, rat, gerbil, guniea pig, and fish. I have one shy cat, Kelsie. She will warm up after a night. She likes to stay back and observe at first. She gets along with dogs and cats, however she is not socialized. As complimentary, I will do one meet and greet before schedule sitting. Your pets and aiko can meet and we can see how things go from there. (I wish I could bring Kelsie to meet/greet. She is a house cat, and doesn’t ever leave) I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I work from home. I am always home and around your pets. I go out for 2 hours for errands, or any sports. I will always communicate if I have to go out for more than 3-4 hours in ahead of time. I have a fenced yard and I do have gate on the stairs to prevent dogs from going upstairs if dogs are not allowed upstairs.
“Neha was amazing! She took great care of Kugubu and did everything that we asked. She was really professional and quick to respond and communicate with us. I would definitely recommend her.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hays
Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.
Thank you once again for the wonderful care of our cat and dog. I love that we come home to them missing us, but in a happy way. Nick is reliable, communicates well, and does the work to win over our pets every time he cares for them. The walks and snuggles help our little guy with his anxiety. I highly recommend Nick and will book him again when we travel.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
