About: I may be new to professional pet sitting, but I have experience caring for my own dog and understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment. I know that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply giving your pet companionship, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and confident while you’re away. As a dedicated pet lover, I structure my daily routine around ensuring the dogs in my care receive consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of mental stimulation. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your pup's regular feeding, walking, and nap schedules without disruption. With 8 years of personal experience raising my own dogs—including a Havanese for 6 years and a dachshund, schnauzer mix for 8 years—I am deeply familiar with managing daily feeding routines and bathroom schedules. I provide a safe, reliable environment by sticking strictly to your instructions, keeping a watchful eye on your pet, and maintaining a predictable, stress-free routine while you are away.
“I could not have been happier with Tatyana's care of my cats during my 8-day vacation. I am a very nervous traveler, largely due to worries about the pets, and Tatyana really helped me have a great trip. She spent quality time playing with the boys on each visit and provided full reports, including photos and videos. It was a great experience and I can't recommend her highly enough.”
“I moved to the area about 3 years ago and Anne has been the go to person when I need someone to look after my cat Leonard. She is good with Leonard who tends to be a bit shy and she’s good at keeping me informed.”
About: Animal lover with hands on experience caring for 2 dogs and 4 cats, plus volunteer experience at an animal shelter working with baby and senior animals. Patient, reliable, and passionate about making pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m available Monday through Friday after 5 PM, and I’m fully available on weekends for pet sitting, drop in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime. I follow each pet’s routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have food, water, playtime, walks if needed, and lots of attention and care.
“Isabel was wonderful!! She was incredibly communicative, showed up with consistency and reliability, and was a pleasure to work with. She watched my cat for a week and made sure all his needs were met. I highly recommend booking with Isabel for a worry-free vacation! Thanks!”
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life. Influenced by my dad who loves rescuing dogs, I've brought home my fair share of strays. I love animals and currently have two cats at home. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats of different sizes and temperaments. I currently work as a vet assistant and I am studying to be an RVT. I recognize that every pet parent has their individualized way of caring for their pet and I strive to support that. I currently work 4 day weeks, 10 hours a day. I have three days throughout the week that I can care for your furry kids. I have two cats at home that can keep your pets company. The house is made safe by putting any harmful chemicals and materials in areas where they cant be messed with.
“Our Chi-weenie loves Jenarae and during our initial visit she was very thorough with questions addressing every contingency. We have been very pleased with this experience, we trust Jenarae completely with our home and Calla, and highly recommend her for anyone wondering whom to choose to care for their pets while they are away.”
“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a child and the love never ceased. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats. I have extensive experience caring for senior pets who might need a bit more attention. I am currently home from UCSC this summer so have very open availability for providing services. Additionally, I have my own vehicle so there are no time constraints in scheduling. I will be able to crate your pets if needed, but if they prefer a cuddle I will happily oblige! Have a pet with lots of energy? We can do long walls or monitored off leash play if that’s what they are used to !
About: My background working at a veterinary office and volunteering for a medical animal rescue equips me with the skills to provide the best care for your pet(s). From nursing bottle babies to administering medications for the elderly, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages. I’m more than happy to provide updates, especially for those extended trips! Your peace of mind and your pet’s well-being are my top priorities. My open and flexible schedule accommodate any routine to keep you and your furry ones happy. My services are best applied in the client’s home or neighborhood. I’m perfect for those that need some extra attention, feedings, medication administration, walks or a weekend sitter.
About: I worked at Humane Societies and City Shelters. I have experience with shy and lovable jumpy dogs. I have skills with all ages. Loving and caring for animals has been my passion since I was little. It’s apart of my life. I work everyday with animals. I work at a city shelter and work closely with Cats and Dogs. I’m familiar with medical patients since I’m experienced with treatments. I care for what fits best for the pet. If they are shy I will give them there own time to warm up to me and if they are adventurous then I give them play time
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of dog walking and sitting experience. I’ve worked for a professional dog-walking company, leading both neighborhood walks and adventurous hikes. I’ve also cared for my own dog with epilepsy, giving medication three times a day and providing gentle, patient care. We’re a warm, loving little family who adore all kinds of animals. I live with my husband and our 4-year-old son, who was born into a home with a cat and dog and has grown up loving animals and nature. At home, we don’t currently have a dog or cat, just fishes and a frog 🐠🐸. After losing our beloved dog, we haven’t been ready to adopt another one, which means your pup will get all the love and attention they deserve while staying with us! I can care for your dog at your home or mine, in any weather, for walks, hikes, playtime, or full-time sitting. I can also provide care for cats while you’re away. Your furry friends will be treated with love, patience, and plenty of attention — maybe even spoiled just a little. 😉 I currently work only 2–3 hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of free time to care for your little one. I’m flexible on weekends as well, which means I can easily adjust my schedule for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. Your furry baby will always get my full attention and care. I completely understand how it feels to miss your little one when you’re away — I’ve been there too. That’s why I’ll keep you updated with frequent photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Alison I was very attentive to our pets needs. She provided daily updates and photos of our pets, which was comforting. I would highly recommend Alison and plan to book her services in the future.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kilkare Woods
Amy was PHENOMENAL! She was incredibly accommodating, especially with giving my cat medicine, and flexible. She took the initiative with making sure my cat was cool and hydrated. My needs changed mid booking, and she came everyday, instead of every other day. Her reports were very detailed and was in constant communication with me. I would absolutely choose her again, if the opportunity arises. She was better than I could have ever hoped for!
Linda was very gracious and flexible to help out when I made last-minute plans to my trip. She continued to send daily photos of my kitty Scooter during daily check-ins, which left me feeling relieved to see him getting some socialization. Loved the videos she sent of her petting and talking to him!
Darcy was one of the best sitters we’ve ever had! She followed all of our instructions and was very communicative. We have a shy kitty and reactive dog, yet she made sure to meet each of their individual needs. Darcy went above and beyond for our babies and we can’t thank her enough. We will definitely be booking again!

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.

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.
