About: I have been pet and house sitting since 2022. So far I have been pet sitting for friends and their friends, but I wanted to extend my services to the lovely people in my area. I grew up with a big dog as our family pet. Though he is no longer with us he was the perfect sassy addition to our family. Since I have started pet sitting I have had 4-legged clients of ALL sizes, we are talking teacup pup to 100+ lbs. I also have experience with all ages ranging from ~6months to senior and I understand their different needs and energy levels. I love to run and walk especially when a doggy friend tags along. I DO have experiment giving oral medications. I am an engineering student at GMU and my schedule can be a little funky compared to a typical 9-5. Please reach out to check my specific daily and long term availability! I take very great care for the safety of the animals that I watch over. I take special care when unleashing dogs to make sure that we are in a secure location (ex. Closed garage/door or fence). While on walks, even with friendly dogs, I try to stay away from others to prevent any potential incidents from happening. I also have experience with giving animals oral medication. I take close care to keep the medications on schedule and triple check that the medication was taken and not spit out (they can be sneaky sometimes).
“Ty took great care of my three cats. Was on time for visits, administered medicine, cleaned litter, and played with them. All three cats, who are normally being skittish, warmed up to them right away. Will definitely book with them again.”
“Daniella did great with checking in on our dogs! They seemed to enjoy their walks with her and didn't have any issues. She left good notes about her visits and was easy to communicate with. We needed additional care for the week and she was willing and able to continue helping out, which was greatly appreciated! I would highly recommend Daniella and rebook her.”

About: I think what sets me apart from other people is that I enjoy the cats and dogs company even if they don’t enjoy mine so I give the them a lot of attention and a lot of pets. I also like to make sure that they get an even amount of food because my cats and dog love to eat others food even after eating a lot. Pet care fits into my daily routine by giving my pets food and water in the morning, making sure they have time to exercise and play, and spending time with them throughout the day. Since I only go to school one day a week, I have more time to care for them, keep their environment clean, and give them the attention they need. I also make sure they are fed in the evening and have everything they need before I go to bed. I always give them the love and attention because that’s what a human needs also, I love giving pets, refilling the water bowl because it’s very cute seeing them drink water and I refill their kibble. I also love playing with them with the little toys and brushing their hair because it’s very calming.

“Amie was such a pleasure to work with! She was patient, responsive, and timely in her communication, and provided wonderful daily updates. She also takes the best pictures! Murphy is typically shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but from the moment she met Amie, she seemed comfortable around her and even flopped over for her! That comfort only seemed to grow throughout the stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed, and content cat and would happily book with Amie again!”

Miss Hannah was absolutely amazing. Our boys absolutely adore her. She was super patient when I was running late for the key handover and was super understanding. We appreciate her working with our kitties, she is truly AMAZING and we couldn’t recommend her enough!!!! Book book book miss Hannah! Thank you SO SO much! ☺️😸😸🐾🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Shavedra took great care of our kitties! She sent daily updates and pictures. We didn't realize we were low on dry food, but she let us know in time for us to order delivery. We highly recommend her and will be asking her to sit for us in the future. Thank you, Shavedra!
Brigette is awesome. She’s helped us out with our near senior, somewhat particular spaniel and way too energetic kitten a couple of times now. We come back and they’re tired (in a good way) and happy. We trust her in our home and with our critters. Will definitely use Brigette going forward.
Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!
She is a great pet sitter ! 😊 . She’s not just a sitter that sits around and watches your pet. She actually plays with them and loves them like they’re her own. I loved the pictures that she sends and she’s a very great communicator. ! Will be looking forward to booking her 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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
