“As always, Isabel did a great job taking care of Chip and Theo. She was available very last minute which took a lot of stress off me for such a late request. I will continue to book her in the future.”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I’m comfortable with playful, energetic pets as well as those who are more shy, cautious, or need a little extra patience to warm up. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I make it a priority to follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide dependable and loving care. I’m also comfortable caring for cats, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them attention while respecting their space. My goal is simple: make sure your pets are safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently working a job and my current schedule for assisting with our furry friends reflects that schedule! Friday to Monday is my current schedule for helping our friends! I care for every pet according to their individual routine, personality, and needs. Before each visit or walk, I make sure I understand their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications (if applicable), and any special instructions from their owner. During walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and engaged while allowing them to enjoy their time outside. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, making sure pets have fresh water, food, attention, and a clean and comfortable environment. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. My priority is always the pet’s safety and making sure they receive the same patience, love, and attention I would want for my own pets.
“We had Sarah sit for our older dog and our cat for a weekend away! She showed up routinely, let me know how the kids were doing and that she’s fed, checked water and spent time with them -she sent pictures each visit and we know the kids were well taken care of. I will definitely book with Sarah again!”
“10/10 recommend. I was very happy to find somebody that I immediately trusted with my dogs and my home. Thank you for taking such good care of the boys. I'm more grateful than I can explain!”
“Provides exceptional service to our pups. She sends us great pictures, descriptive updates, and offers to do more than what was initially requested. Our dogs love Heather. She treats them like they are her own, and we could not be more grateful!”
“We had such piece of mind having Shelli care for our Maisie girl. From the initial meet and greet, to the follow up communications, and then our first drop in last Sunday, we felt like we could take a deep breath and trust in Shelli. Our Maisie girl now requires heart meds 3x a day and they have to be timely, which typically leaves the mid day pill challenging, if you want a social life or have a work schedule that goes hay wire. She's professional, showed up on time, and I could tell from the meet and greet that she and our girl would be fast friends. Highly recommend!”
“Julie has been walking our 50 lb dog for several weeks and recently stopped over to feed and look in on both our dogs while we were away. I appreciate how communicative she is and she is so sweet with our dogs. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Alexis does an amazing job with Sage, and is so excited whenever a drop in is scheduled! Sage is left fed & loved on when it’s time to go, but is always looking forward to the next visit, and we’ll continue booking! See you again soon!”
“Willa was super sweet and professional. She checked in on my kitties and sent photos every day. She was always quick to respond and helped me since this was my first time booking with Rover.”
“Cassie was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our cats while we were away and did all the things we asked. She provided great updates and was communicative and supportive throughout the weekend! Highly recommend her!! Will be asking her to watch our cats again!”
About: I have extensive experience watching friends, families and neighbors pets my entire life. I absolutely love dogs, have no issues cleaning litter boxes and feel comfortable and safe around most animals in general. I don’t mind driving and I also have experience house and plant sitting for folks. I’m a licensed social worker and work both remotely and in the field. I have time and energy to help look after pets to put their owners at ease when they are away. I will follow all rules and expectations to assure your pet and home are cared for when I am visiting. I have no problem sending photos, videos or other updates to communicate and put you at ease your pet is cared for.
“Monica is by far the BEST & most reliable cat sitter. Our cat is an escape artist & she kept him in our apartment and safe the entire month we were gone. She went above and beyond to send me hundreds of photos and videos while we were gone. Maintained a clean and safe area for the cats and when we came home our house was spotless. I’ve had 3 cat sitters in the past and Monica is by far the golden cat sitter. I’d hire her again in a heart beat & plan on doing so in the near future. I felt so at ease leaving Monica with my two cats!”
“Meeting Lauren and Ernest beforehand eased my mind and convinced me my beloved kitties would be safe with them. I loved seeing the videos and pics each day as well. I came home to happy cats. Thank you both for your care!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeland North
Chris was great! This was the first time I had to hire someone to take care of Motor and it couldn’t have gone better. She came by twice a day to check in and feed him and he took to her right away. You can tell she truly loves cats and really enjoys working with them. I will definitely hire her again if I ever need coverage.
Cassie is amazing. I was able to not stress on my work trip because I knew that my two babies were in great hands. She communicated regularly. She took great pictures of Nora. Unfortunately, she didn't get to meet Azure because Azure is shy, but I came home knowing that my cats were going to be okay.
Megan is a dependable and trustworthy cat sitter that we continue to reach out to each time we go out of town. Communication is excellent, our home is respected, and our kitty cat is always in great spirits when we return. You should have zero hesitation when booking Megan - she’s the best.

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.
