About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a love for them. Growing up, my family had both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also had experience watching dogs of all different ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a playful puppy, an energetic adult dog, or a senior dog who needs a little extra patience and attention, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I’m very loving, patient, and dependable, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently work full-time during the week, but I am available for pet drop-in visits anytime after 3:30 PM on weekdays. I also have open availability on the weekends. I am happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pets get the attention, care, and love they need while you’re away! I make sure to follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. I provide plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and whatever care they need. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and follow any specific instructions their owner provides.
“Kyleigh was an AMAZING sitter to our kitten while we were away for the week. She went above and beyond during the stays and made me feel so comfortable leaving him for the first time since we’ve adopted him! She sent constant photos, videos, and updates and was great at entertaining his high-energy self :) I highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking her anytime I need a sitter in the future!!”
“This was my first time using Ashleigh and John and they were great. They kept the litter boxes tidy, fed the cats well, and posted pictures of them. I'll definitely use them again!”
“Mai was an amazing sitter for our two cats, Sunny and Cole! So happy I found them in a frantic last-minute search. Will definitely have Mai look after the kitties for any future needs!”
“Kelsey is the best! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my cats for a weekend and Kelsey made it so easy. She communicated with me, sent pictures, and always showed up on time. I will absolutely be re-booking for my next trip:)”
“Danielle was great! This was our first time leaving our two cats alone and Danielle kept our mind at ease! Great communication and truly cares about taking care of our pets. We look forward to working with her again 😊”
“Hilary did a great job caring for our two cats. She gave me regular updates with pictures and answered my questions during the time we were away. She left the house clean and organized. Would highly recommend Hilary and will use her services again.”
“Erin did an amazing job caring for our kitten. She was attentive, friendly, and kind. She provided excellent care for our little kitty and even went out of her way to take care of her. We would highly recommend Erin for anyone else and would happily ask her to help support our kitten in the future if needed.”
“We rebooked with Lexi this time for drop in visits for our cat and to refresh water for our chickens - she was on top of it! Appreciate her good care with our animals.”
“Malia did a FABULOUS job with our 2 cats. I was especially worried about leaving our timid ginger, but Malia had him rolling over for belly rubs in no time! She sent detailed reports and photos after every drop-in. She even watered our garden during the intense heat spell. Malia has a way of connecting with animals and I plan to bring her back again when the need arises.”
“We were so thankful that Rachel was able to check in on our cats during our vacation. Rachel responded quickly to the request. During the meet and greet she asked great questions so she could learn more about our cats. When she cared for them she was attentive to their needs, checked the litter box and even brought in a package:)”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over a decade from high energy (I have a border collie) to low energy (I also have a shih tzu), elderly, and everything in between. I'd love to make your dog's day by taking them on a walk or giving them an incredible play time. Same goes for your cats! Whether your pets love activity or simply want someone to watch them sniff in the backyard or hang on the couch, I'd love to bring a highlight to their day. Right now, Friday nights through Sunday are the times I have completely free to dedicate to helping take care of your pets. I'm hoping to add more times soon and options to board. As someone who searches for hours to find the right person to watch my pets, I know how hard it can be to trust someone new to take care of your fur family. Whether it's pictures, reassuring texts, following your instructions exactly, or all 3 I will do my best to make your pets as happy and healthy as possible. I offer drop in visits and walks, so please let me know what you are and aren't comfortable with and I will make sure they are well cared for while giving you as many updates as you'd like!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lancaster
Colleen took care of our 4 cats for 10 days while we were away on vacation. She gave them lots of love and attention as well as taking care of all of their daily needs. One of our cats needs medication and Colleen gave it to her with ease. Her daily updates and photos were wonderful! She described in great detail how each of the cats were doing and reading them always made me smile. Colleen went above and beyond in everything she did. She is a sweet and caring person and we would not hesitate for a second to have her watch our cats in the future. Thank you so much, Colleen, for taking such good care of our cats! And thank you to Rover for providing such a wonderful service!
Zania was a huge help when we needed her in a pinch. She is great with our two cats. One who is a love bug and the other a silent demon. She kept up with the litter, played with them and took an interest in their health / well-being. She's also easy to talk to and connect with. Signed, Happy Cat Parents!
Lauren was great in taking care of my pet guinea pig Coco. She was very caring and did an amazing job to make sure she had enough food and water every visit. Also, went the extra mile in cleaning her area. Very much appreciated and highly recommend her. Thank you Lauren :)
Rachel gave great care to my cats! I was out of town for an extended period of time and she did extra things like bring in my mail when it accumulated, which was greatly appreciated. She showed up on time and left detailed report cards. I feel comfortable that they received wonderful care while I was out of town and am grateful to Rachel for providing it.

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.

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 .
