About: I cared for my beloved dog for 10 years, treating him like my first baby. Now, I'm eager to share that love and care with your furry friend, giving them the attention and affection they deserve. I work remotely, so I'm home most of the day and get to spend lots of time with the pets I care for. That means plenty of potty breaks, playtime, walks, and snuggles throughout the day. I love making pets feel comfortable and keeping their routine as normal as possible. My goal is for them to feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. 💛 I promise to keep your pet safe and cherished by following your instructions carefully and creating a cozy, secure environment. I’ll send you regular updates, so you can rest easy knowing your furry friend is in caring and attentive hands. 💖
About: I have experience with all dog sizes and personalities- from chihuahuas to Bernese mountain dogs! I have a cat of my own and love animals. I’ve also had experience with special needs and pets that have diabetes or need medications. I’m a personal trainer and love being active with pups if that is something you’re looking for. I’m caring and compassionate about pets that need attention when owners are away, as I know how hard it can be for them! I’m happy to accommodate whatever needs you have for pet sitting and please feel free if you have preferences on times of day fed, walked, etc. or special notes. I volunteered at the local county animal shelter in my hometown and hope to do that here too soon!
“Shelby is amazing! We really appreciate her detailed notes from each visit. She's thorough, easy to talk to, communicative, and knowledgeable. Our babies loved her! You can tell she genuinely enjoys taking care of animals and getting to know their habits and personalities. We will continue booking her services for future cat-sitting needs for sure. Thanks, Shelby!!!”
“Leslie was amazing with my cats while I was away for a week. She was always punctual and sent me daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my cats were well cared for, and I came home to happy pets. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”
“Lauren was excellent! She communicated well and took care of my very anxious cat in the best possible way. She was also very punctual and quick to respond to messages.”
“Bonnie is a fantastic pet-sitter. She communicated regularly and sent photos. Bonnie has a very positive, calm energy, and our sometimes skittish cat was very happy to have Bonnie around. Will definitely book again with Bonnie!”
“Sarah was great with my two cats. She provided updates and pictures everyday. I appreciate her reasonable cost to do the drop in visits everyday. Sarah is also super nice and trustworthy to have in your home. Thanks Sarah.”
“This is the second time Sophia has sat for my cat. We went away for a week and she smoothly navigated coming into our apartment, which is often difficult for people. I even texted her during our time away and requested that she helped give my cat his inhaler and she watched the video I sent and figured it out, giving him his inhaler daily. I am so grateful for Sophia! Thank you!”
“Matthew came last minute for me and did a phenomenal job. I have a Cane Corso and German Shepherd and he handled both without any issues. Def will be using him again and highly recommend him.”
“Timely meet and greet; our cat gets lonely sometimes but his behavior was good and social when we were gone; pictures were reassuring. Time spent what we asked for even though we always want more- so hard to leave him by himself. Cat immediately took to Brittany- also reassuring as our regular sitter wasn’t available.”
“Maureen is very responsive and detail oriented. She took the time to provide an additional visit when one of my cats was being evasive to provide peace of mind while I was away.”
“This is the second time that Annie has come to our house to drop in and care for our cats. My husband and I love that she sends us pictures every time she visits and our cats always welcome her presence. Annie’s prices are reasonable and she communicates very well with us which we greatly appreciate.”
“We had a great experience! She stopped by twice to let our dogs out while we were away and was reliable, communicative, and very caring with them. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Heather was great as always! She took care of our cats, fed them, scooped litter, and watered our plants on our deck. She’s great with communication and we will be using her again!”
“Marne was great with my cat Lily. I also trusted Marne in my home when I was away and that also was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Marne and will for sure use her again in the future.”

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.

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 use the 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 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.
