“We're so thankful to have found Ashlyn to board our cat Leo when we had to take a last minute trip out of state. She made herself very available and willing to help when our dates were tentative; when we had to stay longer, she reduced the stress by again being flexible and completely willing to keep him for us... And to even go pickup more food for him, if needed! She was great about sharing photo updates and expressed enjoyment in keeping him, which just made us feel like our boy was being well cared for and loved on. Communication was great throughout. We highly recommend Ashlyn for boarding and would not hesitate to have her keep our pet!”

About: 8 years of professional petsitting experience on top of multiple years of pet ownership; includes housesitting, house maintenance, and care of non-traditional pets such as rodents and reptiles. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible and wide open for plenty of time to love on your furry friends. I receive my schedule weeks in advance and am able to prioritize my clients effectively and ensure the highest quality of care. Due to my apartment complex not allowing pets, I care for pets at clients’ homes, whether that’s through pop-in visits to the home or housesitting for the amount of time needed. This ensures that your pets are in an environment that they are comfortable in. I communicate with clients before and throughout the visit to ensure they are kept in the loop while I care for their pets, including photos, and I never hesitate to ask questions if I have any.

“Mary Ashley was wonderful. Her communication was excellent, her punctuality, her care, everything was perfect. She stayed in my house and watched my two cats for about 2 weeks and I felt so comfortable knowing they were in good care. She was so trustworthy and kind, took lots of pics and gave lots of wonderful and detailed updates. I am so thankful I found her to watch my kitties.”

About: Reliable, Experienced & Ready to Care for Your Pets! Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve volunteered at a nature center caring for reptiles, worked as a farm hand, and helped care for my family’s cattle. I’ve also grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, and other furry and scaly friends. You can count on me to provide dependable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether they need exercise, playtime, companionship, feeding, or extra patience, I’ll help them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. You’ll enjoy peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring, capable hands and receiving regular attention and care. 💕 Message me to book your pet’s next adventure or care visit! I work full-time (most weeks) in the service industry. I will never work doubles while taking care of your babies. Normal shifts will be from 10-4 or 4-11/12. My management is aware of my use of rover, and is very understanding to slight schedule changes. At my house my animals are spoiled, so I will treat your babies the same. They will get a multitude of cuddles, and just leave any special instructions like meals or medication. (However I am not specialized in injections.)

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years. From afternoon visits to month-long stays, I’ve done it all. I also have experience caring for elderly and sick animals, including my own when she was diagnosed with cancer. I’m patient and kind towards all animals. I adopted two cats in Sept. of 2024 and adore them so much! I work part time at an ice cream shop in Jackson. I have free time in the mornings and most evenings due to the later shop hours. I’m open to any house sits and will stay with your pet! First off, I remain calm and easy when meeting an animal. If I’m able, I like to leave a belonging of mine so they can get used to my scent! I’m a very laidback person so lounging around the house and going out for a walk with your dog is perfect. I love giving pets and cuddling on the couch.

About: Growing up on a farm in the country side has given me ample experiences in all sorts of animals. Dogs, cats, horses and even turkeys! This experience has given me a unique set of skills that can tackle any beloved pet with patience, endurance, and fun. I am currently in a master's program at UMMC in Biomedical Science and am looking for flexible work that will allow me to keep up with living expenses and being able to do what I love best, playing and loving with pets! As someone who has a cat at home, I know what it takes to keep our animal companions safe but having fun at the same time.

About: Along with the confident ability to provide the best care for your fur babies, I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, and I begin vet tech school in the fall! Being a dog mom myself, I know how difficult it can be to leave your fur babies for any amount of time. I hope that as your potential pet sitter, I will be able to give you as much peace of mind as possible when doing so. My promise is to treat each of your animals as they were my own—with love, patience, and compassion! Being experienced in the veterinary field, I also have the ability and training to care for senior pets, pets who may be diabetic, take medications, etc. As a student, My schedule has gaps in it that do allow for me to care for your pet multiple times a day. This will give me time to care for your pet as you request! I have a fenced in yard that your pet will be able to have supervised play time as much as they would like! I am extremely flexible. However you typically go about your day with your pet, I will do my best to keep that routine for the comfort of your pet!

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.
