“Kara was absolutely amazing! Our previous sitter was horrible and Kara took time out of her busy schedule to clean up his incompetence and take care of our cats. She was so incredibly professional and caring. I would book her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I have a deep love for animals, which makes me an excellent choice for house sitting, dropping in, or walking your dog. My passion for animals drives me to provide the best care possible, ensuring that your pets feel loved and safe while you’re away. I understand their needs and am committed to maintaining their routines, providing plenty of exercise, and giving them the attention they deserve. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets with the same care and affection that I would give my own. I also have experience in other/exotic animal care as I am a rat mom! I’m comfortable providing care for any rodent or other animals besides dog/cat! I work full time, 8-4 M,TH, F, and 12-8 on Tuesdays & 10-6 Wednesdays. I have no problem staying/house sitting throughout my work week. No issues with stopping by before or after work, or doing overnights! And weekends I’m free! No need to worry about my pets, my partner will be able to care for them while I care for yours! I respect you, your fur baby & your home. I’d keep your home clean and safe if I were stopping in/doing over nights. I wouldn't just stop in, I’d provide play time, enrichment, lots of pets & snuggles, and love! When house sitting I am also comfortable with making sure your home stays clean/tidy & doing any other daily tasks such as plant watering, taking trash out, or any other small requests while I stay with your pet!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ilion

We were so nervous to leave our pets alone for 4 days while we had to go on a trip. Working with Justin and Lisa was an amazing experience. They treated our pets as if they were their own and we are forever grateful for them watching over our pets. The communication was 100% and the care given to our pets had exceeded every expectation we had by a mile or two. Please have them watch your own pets and rest assured there will be photos with every visit!!!!! We will 100% be rebooking with them and not considering anyone else to care for our pets! Thank you so much!!!

Katheryn was absolutely amazing! She took so many pictures of our cats that it definitely helped ease our anxiety of us being gone. I feel completely at ease with how she took care of both our home and cats. She is super nice and communicative. Absolutely would book again in a heartbeat

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

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 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.
