About: I approach every job with a heart of service, integrity, and compassion. I believe animals are a beautiful part of God’s creation, and I’m committed to caring for every pet with the same love, patience, and responsibility I would want for my own. My goal is to provide each pet with a safe, loving, and nurturing environment while giving their owners peace of mind. Pet care isn’t just a side job for me—it’s a meaningful part of my daily life. I structure my schedule around the pets I care for, giving each visit the time and attention it deserves. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most safe and comfortable. I stick closely to their normal routine, including: Feeding and Medication: I follow all meal schedules and medication instructions exactly as provided. Cleanliness: I refresh litter boxes, clean up any messes, and ensure food and water areas stay tidy. Exercise and Play: I engage with your pets through play, walks, or enrichment—depending on their age, energy level, and personality. Updates for You: I send daily photos and notes, so you never have to wonder how things are going. Home Care Touches: I also bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lights and blinds to give your home a lived-in feel while you're away.
“Chelsea is an amazing sitter! She does so well with both of our cats, and her communication is excellent. We've hired her many times, and will continue to choose her for our pet sitting needs.”

“Kerri was wonderful with my dog Casper! He is very shy with new people, but warmed up to her very quickly. Would definitely recommend Kerri as someone friendly, experienced and reliable to care for your pup.”

“A real life saver! She was able to accommodate me even on such short notice!! She is also great with my dog!! First time they ever met each other, Hime was acting like she was a long lost friend!!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, small animals, and hoofed animals, and my experience extends far beyond pet ownership. I hold bachelor’s degrees in biology, psychology, and anthropology. My studies in animal behavior, physiology, and research help me better understand animal body language, behavior, and individual needs. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide variety of species, including exotic hoofstock and birds in a zoological setting, as well as pigs, goats, and birds through wildlife rescue and animal care work. I also volunteered in an animal shelter environment for approximately three years, where I handled and photographed thousands of dogs to help them find loving homes. Through that experience, I became comfortable working with dogs of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. I have experience administering medications and genuinely enjoy caring for senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also passionate about exercise and an active lifestyle and am happy to provide outdoor walks and enrichment for energetic pets. In addition to my animal background, I hold a master’s degree in counseling, which has strengthened my communication skills, patience, and ability to remain calm and attentive in a variety of situations. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, or senior, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to their individual personality and routine so both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease. I’m a small business owner and public school teacher, which gives me a structured yet flexible schedule that works well for pet care. I generally have the most availability on weekends, school holidays, and breaks—especially during the summer months—when I can provide extended, consistent care and house sitting. During the school year, I’m typically available in the mornings and evenings on weekdays, with greater flexibility on weekends. I’m always happy to discuss specific dates and needs to see what works best for your pet’s routine. I value consistency, communication, and reliability so that pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and owners can enjoy peace of mind while they’re away. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine in the environment where they feel most comfortable. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure feeding, walks, medication, and daily routines are completed on time and as directed. I treat every home with a high level of respect and care, keeping spaces clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. I’m mindful of both the pet’s needs and the owner’s home, and I prioritize reliability, safety, and consistency in every visit or stay. I also believe clear communication is essential, so I provide updates as needed to give owners peace of mind while they’re away.
“Aaliyah, thank you for the comprehensive follow-up and for loving my fur baby like he is your own. I know Remy can be a bit overwhelming at times and I’m so thankful that you showed him the love and affection that he needs.”
About: Aloha! 🌺 First off let me thank you for considering me as an option to care for your furry or not so furry friend! 🐾 I am from Illinois originally and have been living on the Big Island 3+ years. I like to spend my spare time in the water or on the trails. I love all animals and do exceptionally well with dogs & cats. I believe strongly in regular exercise, stimulative play, and a healthy diet for all animals. I am fast learning and willing to adapt to your pet's needs. I have many years of experience caring for dogs & cats in a personal capacity. I was a cat owner for 10 years until his passing a few years ago from cancer. I have lived with several different dogs of all shapes, sizes, & temperaments throughout my life, being a family pet, a partner's, or a roommate's. I have always wanted a dog of my own, however, have not yet been in the proper personal situation to do so. In addition to dogs & cats, I have experience caring for horses & rabbits. I am open to any type of pet care, and if you have any specific questions about my pet care please send me a message! Mahalo Nui Loa, Jess I am currently working part-time Wed-Sat 10am-7pm. Outside of that time I'm available for whatever need your fuzzy (or not so fuzzy) friend may have! Although I do not provide sitting in my home, I'll follow your pets schedule & needs as close as possible in yours! I always have an extra leash & water bowl in my car ready for anything!
“I always come home to a happy pup. I do drop-in’s a couple times a day while I’m gone...I feel that keeps my older pup comfortable and it’s great to have your best friend waiting for your return and not have to go pick them up the next day if you arrive home late. Andrea always keeps me updated on how my pup is doing and I always feel at ease when I leave town. Thanks again Andrea!!!”

About: Aloha! We have cared for many animals, plants, and homes over the last 5yrs as full time caretakers + pet au pairs. House sitting in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Bali, Vietnam, California, and Hawaii. As a medical professionals (nurses), we are extremely comfortable with administering medications and special care when needed. *** 50+ reviews on another platform - available upon request! *** Full time pet au pairs, so most of the time is spent caring for the pet and being comfortable in the home environment together - while enjoying the vibes of the local community. Prefer long term care arrangements of 2wks - 3 months. This allows time to bond with the pet, establish routines, and enjoy the experience at a slower pace.
About: My experience caring for animals began in grade school, when I helped care for our horses, dogs, and neighbors’ animals. When our Labrador had her first litter shortly before my 10th birthday, I developed an even deeper connection with animals. I’ve always been drawn to their innocence, trust, and unconditional companionship. Caring for them feels less like a responsibility and more like an opportunity to offer the patience, kindness, and love they deserve. I have been a successful financial advisor on the island for 12+ years. Creating this account and becoming a part of this community is purely to give back to something that I truly believe in; quality pet care. Being single and childfree gives me the flexibility to make this happen. I make my work schedule so I am able to be flexible to animal and owner needs alike. I have had multiple friends and family members rely on me for personal pet care. The range of services I am offering would be anywhere from a quick dog walk on lunch break to overnight pet sitting. Experience with: eye drops, medication, wet and dry foods, and waste management 🙃
About: I grew up with 2 Australian shepherds and I have shadowed a professional dog trainer. Although I have the most experience with Ausie’s, I am comfortable around all dogs that are friendly to humans :) I have also recently spent time getting to know cats and have fallen in love with them too! My schedule is not very set in stone right now. I have a lot of little jobs here and there but nothing full time. I will work to make myself available as much as possible. After September 21 I will start school but mostly online so I will still have free time. I am happy to accommodate to any specifications you have for taking care of your dog. I will not reward bad behavior and I will give your dog lots of attention.
About: I am an active, dog-lover that would be so excited to get to know your sweet pup! I love taking dogs for walks and going out and exploring the neighborhoods (and dog parks!) around me. They will get endless amount of love and attention while in my care! I currently work remotely, so I am able to stay home for most of the day with your furry friend. Please reach out and let me know if you are in need of a dog-loving sitter! I work from home Monday-Friday and have a 5-1pm schedule. Within that timeframe, my work is pretty flexible so I will often play with the pups on breaks/lunches. I go on walks every evening between 1-4pm, usually 3+ miles. I am not able to offer stays at my own home at this time, but would love to help out and house sit or come stop by to take your sweet pup for a walk! I like to understand each individual dogs needs, so please don’t hesitate to let me know if there are any specific requests for activities/enrichment for your dog.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over three years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. Whether it’s energetic pups, cuddly cats, or little furry friends, I truly enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I am available all day Monday through Friday from mornings until the evening. On weekends I am only available half day. If you need extra care on the weekends, we can set something up ahead of time. I believe wholeheartedly in scheduling a ‘meet and greet’ both with the owner’s of the pet and of course the pet - be it cat or dog. The most important thing that I’d like to know about any pet is simply the initial response I receive from them (i.e. calm, playful, hesitant, aggressive, etc.) I do not have any breed preferences.

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.
