“Miss Genevieve was great. She arrived every day that we booked, sent me photos and communicated with me to update how the kitties were doing. It was extremely comforting having her drop in while we were away. She also retrieved an Amazon package that contained Feliway plug-in for the cats and set that up for them. Truly thankful for her services.”

“I am new to Rover and I needed a last minute sitter for my kitties for over a week. Christina took good care of them, kept me updated and I could tell they were loved and had so much fun while I was away. I would choose her to care of my kitties over anyone else. Would recommend her to everyone!”

About: I have experience rescuing cats and dogs and administering medication. I’ve also done house sitting and pet sitting for several homes. I enjoy running and playing with dogs to keep them active and happy, and I can also help them stay calm when needed. I offer walks up to 1 hour and can safely handle up to 3 dogs at a time. I’m comfortable cleaning up after pets, changing diapers if needed, and giving medication. I work Mondays and Wednesday–Friday from 7 to 3, and Saturdays from 3 to 11pm. I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Sundays 😊 I adapt to each home and follow the owner’s preferences and routine for their pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or keeping their space clean. I always adjust to each pet’s personality and needs.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I treat each animal like they’re my own, paying close attention to their routine, personality, and comfort. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require extra care, slower walks, or medication support. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I truly care about making both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to be reliable and consistent for every booking. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, depending on your pet’s needs. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get the attention, feeding, and interaction they’re used to. Whether it’s quick drop-ins or longer visits, I’m committed to being on time and keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in your home. I take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I pay close attention to their behavior and environment to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and tidy, including maintaining litter boxes and feeding areas. I always make sure doors, windows, and entry points are secure, and I’m mindful about preventing escapes—especially with indoor cats. I also provide regular updates with messages and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels at ease and you have complete peace of mind.

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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
