About: I’ve had pets since I could remember and they’ve always been a special part of my life. Being able to care for your pets, just as attentively as I do my own, would bring me so much joy. I’ve cared for many family and friend’s pets so much so, that I would love to start professionally pet sitting. I currently work an 8-5 job 4 days out of the week but have plenty of time before and after work to feed, take to the potty, and love on your pets. My weekends are very open and I can spend more time playing with your pet as well. I have experience in cleaning up accidents, walking, feeding, administering oral medications just like I do for my own animals. I am capable of leaving your home secure and intact while you are away. I’m sure I can responsibly handle anything that comes my way.
About: Fur babies are my favorite people! I have loved and cared for dogs, cats, chickens, guinea pigs, and numerous other creatures since I was a child growing up on a farm. A home isn't complete without at least one "paw-some" friend. I am self-employed as a financial coach and have a very flexible schedule to meet your in-home pet sitting, drop-in and pet walking needs. I am available seven days per week. Your pet will be less stressed about your absence when they can continue to play, eat and be cuddled in the comfort of your home, in surroundings that are most familiar and comfortable to them.
“I 100% recommend Shannon to care for your pet! She is very dependable and sends detailed updates after each visit. I can tell by the photos that my Yorkie is SO happy when she visits. She gives him LOTS of love and attention! I never have to worry about a thing. A few months ago, I had a different dog-sitter back out on the commitment when I was already on vacation. Shannon was right there to help with minimal notice and cared for my dog the rest of my trip. I am so glad I found her!”
“Christine was very nice to watch our cat so last minute due to an urgent family matter we had to travel out of state for. She followed the directions & showed up when she needed to. Thank you!”
“Sarah did an amazing job in caring for our two cats during two separate trips—one for a week and another for two weeks. Her daily messages and photos kept us well informed. We’re thrilled with the care she provided and would happily work with her again!”
“Justine was wonderful with my fur babies and very thorough! She was able to get my shyest cat to play and that says a lot about her. I appreciate the time and effort she spent with my boys and I will continue to trust her with them in the future!”
“Megan did a great job taking care of our new puppy, she was always on time and sent updates and photos on a daily basis. I would highly recommend her and look forward to using her again in the future!”
About: Hiiii! I’m a proud animal lover with hands-on experience working in an animal hospital. I’m around animals every day, caring for them and making sure they’re safe, healthy, and happy..and I’d love to extend that same care to your pets! Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I’ll treat your fur baby like family. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals, you can count on me to keep your pet loved and well-looked after while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! (Message me for more details about my availability..it won’t let me specify) 🥰 I’m currently a full-time student online so I’m very flexible! This allows me to do extended stays and if you need additional time away as long as I don’t have another booking, I can always extend my services! So I offer drop ins, house sit, and do overnights.. very attentive, willing to take them to dog parks, hikes, walking around the neighborhood.. you name it!
“Mia is fantastic! She’s very communicative, dependable, and goes above and beyond. She even helped us last minute with only one day’s notice during a family emergency. We’re so grateful for her and highly recommend her!”
“We have used Ksenia twice and have thoroughly enjoyed our experience with her! She has taken such great care of our little one. We will use her again in the future and highly recommend her!”
About: I have experience in doggy daycare and dog sitting. I worked in a doggy daycare called River Dog Inn when I was 18, in 2022. I would watch and take care of the small dog group typically, but would have no problem watching the big and medium dog groups, as well. I would clean their crates, take them outside to play and do their business, and would take dogs in and out from the yard when it is time to go back in or time for pick-up. I also have my own dog, MuShu, who is a Lhasa Apso, and I have had her for almost 8 years! I am currently unemployed so I will have more free time to pet sit, walk dogs, or pet sit overnight. I will be able to care for pets any day in the week, except for Fridays. Weekends can be worked around, I may not always be able to do weekends. Overall, my schedule is pretty freed up, currently. I can care for pets in the client’s home! I listen to the pet owner’s needs for the pet, because every pet is different. I take them out as much as needed and feed them twice a day, depending on the pet. I pet them and play with them and can play fetch with them outside. I want your pet to feel as taken care for and loved as possible!
About: I’ve cared for animals all my life. From pet sitting to dog walking to administering medicine, I have the experience to care for your fur baby. I am currently taking a gap year and during this time I’m working on building my skills within animal care. I am busy during weekdays from 7AM-9AM as well as 1:20PM-2:50PM. But my schedule is flexible beyond those times. I can care for your pet in your home if you give me a list/instructions for each day I’m there. I will care and give your pet all the attention it needs and I can even offer potential training services if it lies within my expertise.
About: I've spent my childhood taking care of animals, whether it be your occasional dog or cat, or something as rare as a horse, and pretty much anything in between! I pick up on an animals social ques very fast, whether they be the well known ones or maybe something your animal does that is unique for them. I deal with all ages of animals, including seniors and babies, and can administer medication if needed. I also deal with all behaviors of animals, whether they be aggressive, or a shy baby, or simply just one with social anxiety. I work well with routines if your animal has one, such as feeding times or potty breaks if you know your animals schedule! I have an open schedule, but even if I didn't I'd much rather spend it with fur babies! I can work at any time, on any days, and have a flexible schedule where I can be booked the day of. I fully believe accidents are accidents, so if your fur baby may have an accident I would be more than happy to clean your space as well as theirs. I'm also a believer in having a clean dish for eating time or a clean area for an animal to have fun and be free in without worrying about making a mess. If your fur baby makes a mess of any sorts, I promise to clean it up!
About: Combining my expertise as a dog sitter and devoted pet owner, I ensure the well-being of animals under my care while their humans are away. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I give the same love, attention and energy to them as I would my own. I have spent years fostering for my local shelter and rescues both local and aboard. I have had to give medicine and take care of dogs that were heartworm positive and had to endure treatment before leaving for their rescue. I have also helped organize ways to raise funds for dog that needed medical care in the shelter. I have beautiful furbabies of my own, and pride myself in giving the same standard of care I would expect. I show up on time, I never allow anyone in the home other than me during my sit. I have a pretty flexible and open availability. This allows me to remain in your home with your pet the entire duration of the stay. As the owner of four furry friends, I prioritize their daily walks on their favorite leashes. They enjoy exploring our property with its multiple ponds while being safely secured in case an unexpected critter, or any other danger appears.

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.

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.
