My industry is currently in a slow season, so this is an exciting new endeavor for me. Yard is fenced in. Only adults in the home. No permanent pets in the home. Only one furry friend is allowed to stay at a time.
“Marcelina is an excellent and sweet petsitter who is very attentive to details and very communicative towards pet owners. She took care of my cat, Nydia (who is very picky) and I could tell that Nydia loved her from the start. I am very happy with Marcelina's services, recommend her 1000% (yes, one thousand percent) and will definitely re-book to take care of my chonky cat!”

I have experience with dogs beings off leashes trained as well as the ones that constantly need leashes so they don’t get into trouble. Playing in the yard or just butt scratches are a staple!
“Katherine was great! I highly recommend her. We have 4 cats that she took care of for us while we were out of town & she was very communicative, sent updates & photos daily. I could tell that our cats felt comfortable with her which was very important.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a small child. There is nothing that warms my heart more than working with and helping animals. I’m eager for any opportunity. Compassion and patience are what it takes! I work M-F, which leaves me all weekend to dog or cat sit, go and do checkups and walks, or whatever is required. I’m up to learn and try anything. Respect, compassion, and patience. These three characteristics really define what a good dog and/or cat owner requires. There is nothing I enjoy more than walking my own dogs and playing with them. I do it everyday! Without animals life would be even more tough.

I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs, whether they are a playful puppy, an energetic companion, or a senior pet needing a little extra patience and attention. My goal is not only to care for your pets, but to give them the love, companionship, and reassurance they deserve while giving you peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide consistent, dependable care throughout the week.

My goal is to provide trustworthy, responsible care so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident while they are away.
“Robyn was FANTASTIC! Very good at sending pics and videos while o was away. She stayed in my home and was a very respectful houseguest. I’ve already booked her again for my next trip!”
About: My name is Aaren and I currently have been running a successful pet sitting business out of my home for 15 years now. I have rescued and cared for dogs my entire life. Animals are my passion and I take great pride in caring for other people's fur babies while they are away. I would love to be considered as an alternative to a kennel or boarding facility. I try and keep the exact same schedule you would at your own home/ when you are home, to lessen the amount of stress on your animal. I also go on daily walks 2-3x per day, play outside with them, and offer lots of cuddle time and hugs and kisses. I am a stay at home mother, so I am available all day to care for your pets. We recently have updated our backyard with an area of Astro turf to keep our pets happy, clean, and healthy. Please do not hesitate to contact me and we can discuss all of your pet sitting needs. I look forward to hearing from you! I am currently running this as my sole business, so I am available and free to take care of your pets as needed and as detailed as needed. I currently am only offering services in client's homes. I try to maintain their routine to decrease stress while the owners are away, for everyone involved!
About: I have been taking care of cats all my life and for the past ten years I've been taking care of dogs as well. I have experience working with animals that aren't my own as well as overnight stays. I am currently not in work, but I typically wake up around 7 am and start my day by feeding my animals and taking my dog for a walk. Then throughout the day I like to spend time with my animals and ensure they get plenty of attention. I have a fenced yard and a super sweet golden retriever who loves to play with all sized animals. He's very gentle and playful and gets along great with other animals. I have a pool in my backyard as well so if your dogs love to swim I can gladly accommodate that.
About: I have been taking care of pets for family members and friends for over 5 years now. It started when a friend had an emergency out of town and needed help. It was a pleasure to sit in and feed, play, and send goofy pictures of my friend’s dog to provide ease and comfort during a hard time. I work full time and that means my cats are fed on a routine. They require a special diet that requires portioned meals and time to play. I have an active pet cam that I am able to use to talk to them when I am not home to provide comfort and time dispensers for treats. I will abide by your routine and follow directive on when to feed, when to walk, and when to provide or administer medication. Only you know your companion best and in order to provide safety and structure, as your care-taker it would be a privilege to honor your schedule and routine.
“Outstanding sitter. My babies love Amina. Amina has taken care of my cats several times. She is dependable, follows feeding instructions well, and engages my cats in play time.”

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.

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.
