“I have used Jeannette several times to care for my 4 kitties when I am away. They have gotten to know her and even my shy girl comes out to play now. I appreciate that She leaves things clean. Trash with litter and catfood cans bagged and out to trash can. Will use her again and recommend to others.”
About: Experienced pet sitter and proud pet parent to a corgi and two cats! I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including those who need extra patience with potty training or medication administration. As a young professional with plenty of free time before starting my full-time job, I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable, attentive care. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes where they’re most comfortable and can stick to their normal routines. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, or overnight house sitting, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and personalized attention while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to giant dogs like Great Pyrenees. I also have a 13-year-old tabby cat, so I understand the importance of patient, attentive care and keeping pets comfortable in their routines. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! Currently have an open schedule and can pet sit any day/time! I am also available most weekends and weekdays for boarding, walking, and/or at home visits. I have a enclosed 2nd floor balcony, and plenty of nearby walking trails that I am happy to take your pup out on. Also flexible and can come to you.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was around 12 or 13 years old. I would take care of neighbor's, and family member's animals. Such as walking them, feeding them, giving them the love and care that they receive everyday from their owners. ⚠️⚠️I have a severe peanut allergy, so it is very important that your pet does not have peanut butter or anything with peanuts at least 24 hours before I am with your pet⚠️⚠️ I am in college so my schedule is very consistent! Two days out of the week I have 8:30am classes and then the other 3 days my classes start at noon. I am very flexible however, all of my classes end at or before 5pm. So I am available early morning, late morning, afternoon evening, depending on the day! Just reach out and I’m sure we can make it work!! I will respect your home, and follow said rules in your home to be able to give your animal the best care it deserves. ♡
About: I've had two medium sized dogs since I was little. I helped care and train them their whole lives. They've both had health and behavioral issues that I've helped my family navigate (potty issues, food issues, more comfy spots). I currently have three cats of my own. I have had all of them since they were 8/9 weeks old. My two older cats are distinguished gentlemen. They have no problems and are very spoiled. My young kitten is already potty trained and gets along with others well. I currently work full time M-F in the 7 45 to 5 range. I only work ths mornings of a few saturdays. I am lucky to have an hour long lunch, so I could easily check on a pet 2/3 times a day even during the week. On the weekends I'm more open. I would be open to caring for pet in my home, but it would depend on their behavior. By this I mean I dont want your pet to be more stressed/upset with you gone because they aren't used to other peoples homes. I also have three cats, so theyd at least have to be comfortable with them being in another room nearby. However, caring for your pet in your home I'd be very respectful of their routines and likes/dislikes. I'd love to play with them or go for a walk, and make sure they have all other necessities ready for them.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I have experience with everything from playful puppies to seniors needing extra care and attention. I understand how important routines, patience, and love are when it comes to making pets feel safe and happy. Your pets will be treated like family in my care. I offer flexible boarding for pets who are comfortable hanging out at home during the day. I make sure everyone gets their energy out in the mornings, has a safe space while I’m at work, and then gets lots of love, potty breaks, and playtime in the evenings and on weekends. I treat every pet like family and make sure they’re safe and happy while you’re away. Whether your dog needs playtime, snuggles, or just a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they’re cared for like one of my own.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I used to be certified in Veterinary Assisting when I lived out of state and worked at a dog day care and boarding facility for many years. I do work a full time job at a bank, so I have availability every afternoon to help fit in evening walks. With that being said, most of my weekends are also free. I have a fenced in yard that keeps my dogs contained while they are out and provides ample amount of running space. I have experience and knowledge in group play.
About: I’ve growing up around all types of animals my whole life. I’ve grown up around horses, cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens, and cows. Cats being on of my favorites to be around. I have a lot of experience on administering medications such as shots like insulin and oral medications. I am currently a college student but am fully online so my weeks and weekends are usually free for any time and day for anything. I have two friendly fixed female kittens of my own to play and keep your cats company and can always keep them separated if needed. I currently do not have a fenced yard.
About: I've had pets pretty much my whole life, both dogs and cats. In the past two years I have begun fostering cats and working hard to TNR the strays in my neighborhood. I have several of my own cats who I spend time with daily, and I also dedicate a lot of time to cat rescue. My girlfriend and I have fostered cats, including several litters of kittens, and work hard to TNR our neighborhood strays. The safety of your pets is my top priority. Please let me know ahead of time of any potential safety concerns. I will gladly accommodate as needed to ensure everyone stays happy and healthy.

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.
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 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.
