“My cat, Ruby, was very well taken care of while I had to be out of town! She gets super anxious while I'm gone, but I could tell by the pictures Melissa sent that she was getting lots of love. I was also very pleased and surprised that Melissa had cleaned the cat food dishes and spoons! Very nice!”
“She took such good care of our four cats. Our youngest cat is skittish around strangers. I figured that he would hide from her the whole time. But he eventually felt comfortable to play laser with her. Yay!”
About: I have had 5 dogs throughout my life, and have been the primary caregiver for them. My most recent dogs have lived to be 15&16 years old, so I have experience with senior dogs as well as puppies. When I am not working on the weekend as a nurse, I work at home doing school work for my masters program. I love taking dogs on long walks and making sure they have plenty of attention. Dog owners will not have to worry about their dogs when they're away, I will treat your pet just like a family member. Their will be loved, pet, and given exceptional care, love and affection with my services. I will also do small chores around the house if needed (ex: dishes, sweepings, and vacuuming). I currently work on Saturday and Sunday as a staff nurse at the local children’s hospital, and during the week I do school work for a Masters program at Vanderbilt. I do my school work at home, so I can travel to your pet and spend time with them during the week while you’re at work. I’ve managed several dogs throughout the years and can provide medications, crate them, give them food and water, and play with them until their hearts content!
About: I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet's unique needs and routine. I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention so pet parents can feel confident while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I have a part time and only work 2-3days a week so I have an open schedule to do a lot of caring for your pet. I have a fenced yard and a dog at home that is playful with everyone.I will also follow each pet's regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by their owner.

I understand the need for help when caring for your pets, and I would love to offer my help to make your lives a little easier and to ensure your pets are treated like family even when you're not around.

“Lucas was amazing! We had a last minute need for someone to lay our dogs out on a holiday weekend. I inquired at close to midnight and he responded quickly - which is a bonus because I didn’t expect to hear anything until morning! He communicated when he was there, let us know he was running a few minutes late, and sent us pictures! We will definitely use Lucas again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Karns
Courtney did an excellent job taking care of our cats! They usually hide and don't eat much while we're gone, but they always greeted her at the door and ate really well! I could tell they were comfortable with her right off the bat. She kept us updated well throughout the weekend, and I'll definitely be using her services again
Jessica was incredible with my new anxious cat. She was a life saver! She came over to do my new adopted cat’s ear drops for me because I was having a hard time and she was able to get my runner of a cat, wrap him up gently and administer the drops. So grateful for her help.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Karns is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

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.
