About: I have been a in-home pet sitter for the past six years for a medium size dog who had special needs as a puppy. I also am a pet photographer and have done pet portraits and holiday cards! I recently lost my beloved dog Zoey, who I had for over 12 years. I love dogs deeply, and welcome them into my home. I am available on a part time basis with more availability during the summer months. Weekends are ideal but I can be available after 5pm on weekdays or early morning. I live in a pet friendly apartment building, in a dog friendly neighborhood! My apartment is in the smaller side but dog and cat safe!
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 25 years and currently have two wonderful Goldendoodles, mom and daughter. Dogs staying with me become part of the household, with plenty of attention, affection, playtime and room to run in our fenced yard. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors and high-energy dogs, as well as administering oral and injectable medication. I’m also experienced with training and love keeping dogs active, happy and mentally stimulated. I work on my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with the dogs in my care. They get frequent attention, playtime, outdoor breaks and walks depending on their usual routine and energy level. I have a fenced yard and two friendly Goldendoodles, so visiting dogs have plenty of space and great company. Dogs are part of the household and I’m happy to follow their usual routine, including crate training if that’s what they’re used to. I also have a playpen available for puppies or smaller dogs when needed. Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness always come first.
About: I grew up with pets my whole life. I’m a dog mom to a maltipoo named Norman! He is 10 years young.

I currently work full time and live close by to work so I come home during breaks. I have a flexible schedule due to my own pet care needs. I have a shared yard that pets can play fetch or run around! A lovely neighborhood to go on walks as well. Lots ok toys for your furr babies too.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Island Park
I can’t say how pleased I was with Kristen. My cat took to her right away and she can be very shy! Kristen easily followed all directions and left everything clean and neat. It’s very comforting to know your special little creature is being so well cared for while away. Wonderful!
Stephanie took great care of my two cats, Oreo and Nala, while I was away. She followed all of my instructions and made sure their routines were kept consistent, which I really appreciated. Oreo is a social butterfly and enjoyed her company right away. What impressed me most was seeing my shy girl Nala slowly come out of her shell. By the last couple of visits she was rubbing against Stephanie and even allowing pets, which is a big deal for her. That alone speaks volumes to me. Stephanie also shared photos during the visits and kept things running smoothly while I was gone. I’m grateful that I was able to relax on my trip knowing my cats were being looked after, and came home to two happy kitties. Thank you again, Stephanie! 🐱
I have to say I was so nervous leaving my boys !! But then I met Janelle and my cats adored her … She took care of all their needs and made sure they were well looked after sending me messages and pictures it was a great experience and will use her in the future .. Timmy and Acey thank you !!

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 .

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 .
