About: My love for animals has guided me my entire professional life! From management at Bensons Pet Center, pet care specialist at Petsmart, Pets department manager at Runnings, and working hands on with pets At Sacandaga Vet Clinic! For the past 2 years I’ve been a server, but I miss the fur babies! Which is why I’ve decided to pursue a second job here in Rover! Feel free to message me with any questions! :) I work about 4 times a week until 3:00 PM. The days change so some days I may be available earlier when I have them off! I do not work nights so I’m available any day after 3, if you’d like to schedule me earlier than 3 just message me! I might be able to do it if I’m off that day :) treat every pet like they’re my own and take the time to learn their individual routine, personality, and needs. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean space, plenty of attention and playtime, and any other care you request. For walks, I’ll keep your dog safe, comfortable, and happy while giving them the exercise and enrichment they need. I’ll also send updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away!
“Micheal was so accommodating to my doggie's needs. He even came for two meet and greets since one of my dog is quite timid and needs a lot of familiarity before trusting someone. It is obvious he loves animals and i felt more than comfortable letting him care for mine!”
“She did a wonderful job watching my cats! She was reliable, caring, and made sure they were well taken care of while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Fantastic help, she watched our boys while we were out of town and made sure to keep us in the loop! She gave medicine (to cats!), swept, and scooped litter. What I appreciated most was she took some initiative while we were gone and ensured our faucet was dripping during cold snaps. Could not recommend more highly, your pets will be well looked after.”
“Kim did an outstanding job caring for our cat, Nellie. I enjoyed the videos and the conversations. Kim was clearly building a nice relationship with Nellie who does tend to be shy. Additionally, Kim took good care of our plants and diligently followed all feeding and other instructions.”
“Kiera is a sweetheart! We met prior to the check ins and i felt very comfortable. She was there on time for the times I asked, late evening and early morning. She sent great pics and I could tell my dog was well and happy!”
“Lauren did an amazing job with our senior cat. The meet and great went smoothly. Then went above and beyond to take care of our guy while we were gone. To top it off, she came over in a last minute pinch to make sure he got his medications and food. We got frequent updates and wonderful pictures. It was so sweet, she’d sit on the floor next to his heating pad to spend time with him. We are so thankful and lucky she watched our cat.”
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including my own pup. I’m patient, loving, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and routine. From walks and playtime to cuddles and calm supervision, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time to spare for your pets 💕 I am looking for full time so my availability is scheduled to change. I treat every pet like family and always put their safety and comfort first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and relaxed in my care. I can follow any instructions you provide including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and cuddle time. My goal is to create a stress free, positive experience for your pet while keeping you updated every step of the way.
“If perusing rover for care of your conpanion(s)? Stop here ! Joanne came by twice to keep our pups company with walks and play , as well as feeding them dinner . The fabulous shared photos share that ,and give such peace in absense that it’s not a second thought on ‘hope they are alright ‘ I will most definitely be reaching back to her when our adventures can’t include the pups !”
“This was our first time hiring a pet sitter at our camp, and Paul made the whole experience easy. He was reliable, sent regular updates, and our mini australian shepherd, Ziggy, clearly felt comfortable with him. We scheduled a meet-and-great in advance of the first visit to give Paul the lowdown on the routine, and he followed through perfectly on the second visit. We will definitely have Paul help us out in in 2026.”
“Jack is awesome! He is very knowledge and I feel my puppy is safe with him! He came at odd hours for me since I work overnights and I couldn’t be more grateful! He keeps you up to date with the app and photos which is very comforting!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous. We have FIVE dogs. Yes FIVE. So it’s a big job for anyone. Lianna was spectacular. She was on time. She sent us pictures. My dogs looked happy and well cared for. I cannot recommend her enough. Anytime we are away we will definitely rebook. She is THE BEST!!!! Definitely FIVE STARS!!!”
“Kasey was great! Would leave my girls anytime with her. She kept in contact with us. I definitely will use her services in the future. I felt confident leaving them with her before I left, we communicated quite a bit before our trip. My dogs were happy to see us when we got home, but I can tell they were happy and well cared for when I was not here....Amy Rickard”
“Caitlynn is the absolute best. I have 3 crazy pitbulls and she handles them beautifully. They are not easy dogs to keep safe, but Caitlynn makes it look effortless. It’s been years since my husband and I have been able to travel, but now that we have Caitlynn in our lives there are many things that we can look forward to knowing we can count on her. She stayed for over 2 hours getting to know us, our home, and furbabies before we had her over. She really made sure we were all comfortable and we are so grateful for that. We love Caitlynn and can’t wait to have her back💖”
“Brenna did an excellent job taking care of our kitties. She is very trustworthy. She took multiple pictures of our girls which made us feel at ease that they were doing good & in good hands while we traveled.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 248 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Johnstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Johnstown. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
