About: Over the years I have cared for a variety of animals, including domestic, exotic, and livestock. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their medically needy animals over the past decade and I am now opening that service up to Rover. I'm not a vet tech but I am comfortable and experienced administering a variety of medical treatments like insulin injections, pill regiments, eye drops/skin ointments, and subq fluids. Leaving town with a pet can be stressful, especially one that needs specialized care. I can help. Currently over all I have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have my own small business that is sporadic gig work on the weekends. Most events last 4 to 6 hours, maximum 8 hours, and not every weekend has events. I prefer to pet sit in the home the pets belong to. I find that with most animals it's incredibly stressful to move them, staying in their home with them minimalizes that stress. It also allows for easier medicine administration. I like to meet the pets and owners ahead of staying with them, this is to again reduce the stress on your pet when I show up without you as well as to observe the quality of care you are administering to your fur babies.
“Marissa has been so helpful! Our puppy is so energetic, so young, and honestly a handful and Marissa has more than kept up. She makes sure our pup is cared for and she keeps us updated with everything that happens, we feel so comfortable with her around Winston. He can be a little needy, and truthfully so is his dad (lol) and she has been happy to help with all of our specific instructions. We couldn’t have had a better experience!”
“Marianne was amazing! Exactly what we were looking for. She is very caring and attentive, we felt we could count on her and that our cat was in great hands. I will book her again next time we are away from home. Thank you so much for the great service! :)”
“Kelly accepted another short notice request, then extended it a day after my work schedule changed last minute. She is a natural with the dogs, and I was able to focus on my job while out of town knowing the pups were well attended to.”
“Kianna was great. She interacted very well with our cat and took great care of her. We also appreciated the instant and super friendly communication with Kianna. We highly recommend Kianna.”
“Sandy is the best!! I have zero worries about my Lily girl when I leave town. Sandy always treats Lily like her own and makes sure the routine is stable and consistent, which helps Lily have less anxiety while I’m away. As always, THANK YOU Sandy for all you do!”
“Jazmin was fantastic…reliable, professional and communicative. Most importantly my pets loved her and were well taken care of. She is great at her job and I highly recommend her.”
“Genesis was so great! She was very detailed and sent a lot of pictures. She kept us updated. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone in need.”
“Oriana did a nice job taking care of my two pets. One is fairly elderly and the other will have accident is a puppy who will have accidents if unattended. She was n constant communication with me.. Pictures were appreciated as I was out of town.”
“Toni is great. She visited my cat 3x. Sent pictures and described any conditions occurring. The meet and greet was great. Energetic, warm welcoming personality; she loves her animals which is wonderful!! Definitely recommend and will call upon Toni again!!!”
“Ariel was great. We scheduled a 30 minute mid day visit. Ariel was right on time, gave us many photos and an update of the visit. We will definitely rely on Ariel in the future.”
“Alexandrea and our cat Bruce made friends on the first visit. Alexandrea also stayed for a good 30 minutes (Check-In) and made sure Bruce was fat and happy and also played with him while we were gone. Past experiences is was in and out in 15 minutes it seemed from others. I will be looking for Alexandrea on our next trip for sure!”
“Overall, Nicole did a wonderul job looking after my two cats. She arrived on time, informed every step of way and even sent me pictures. I would definitely use her services anytime I have to take a trip.”
About: CATS- I Have Taken Care Of (and spoiled) My Cat Babies For Three Almost Four Years Now. I have experience providing medical care to my most stubborn cat that had to have emergency surgery early this year. I am experienced with giving pills and liquid medication, taking cats temperatures, and trimming nails! DOGS- I have experience walking and playing with dogs. I have not brought a dog into my home yet because I want to make sure they have plenty of space, but I love to hang out with my family’s and friends dogs, take them to parks, on drives, and more :) I am currently working part time at a dermatology office as an esthetician! This leaves me with availability to help care for pet babies on Mondays Tuesdays Thursdays and Fridays after 4, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday all day! I currently have 2 indoor cats and no dogs, I share a one bedroom apartment with my amazing (also animal loving) partner. We do not have a fenced in back yard, but we have lots of land to take walks of our own or walks with dogs :) We have a balcony where my 2 cats love to hangout on and watch birds, leaves, and people.
About: I have an older cat who means the world to me, so I understand how important it is to find someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. Since I work from home, your cat will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I also make it a priority to send regular updates and photos because I know how reassuring they are. I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m around throughout the day for feedings, playtime, litter box care, and companionship, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. I live in a clean, calm condo and prioritize safety at all times. I keep doors and windows secure, maintain a pet-friendly environment, and closely follow each pet’s routine and instructions.
“Gheraldine did a good job with my cat. Feeding daily - changing the water, cleaning the litter box and giving my cat affection. She communicated if she would be late or early. I do recommend her.”
About: Small dogs are my specialty! Neighbors, friends, colleagues and family turn to me without hesitation for consistent, safe, reliable pet care while they are away or in last minute emergency situations . I have experience with senior pets, pets that are in need of medication, pets that have CHF, pets with skin, problems/ issues, or allergies, and vestibular disease. I work a full-time job with a one hour lunch period (to attend to your pets needs midday) Well behaved pets (with the owners approval or owners request) can be brought with me to work in a very small 3 person quiet office setting. Monday-Friday and I am available all weekend. I have experience with crate trained, free roaming, in-home hospice situations with multiple (and sometimes time sensitive medications) , CHF(congestive heart failure) and special feeding instructions. I am also able to take your pet on long walks beyond the yard and even for a few mile run/jog (for dogs whose owners request this service, usually my larger breed pet owners or working dog pet owners).
“Tarah was great. Very good communication. She did everything. She said she was going to do…..kept her schedule. I had not a care in the world. It was a pleasure. I would definitely use her again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lauderdale Lakes
Marcos took great care of my mom’s cats while we were away. He was attentive, kind, and very reliable throughout the entire booking. He made sure the cats were well cared for, sent plenty of photos and updates, and was always quick to respond whenever I reached out with a question. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing the cats were being looked after by someone responsible and caring. Everything was done exactly as promised, and the communication was excellent from start to finish. We would absolutely book with Marcos again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.
Lauren took wonderful care of our three cats while we were out of town for a long weekend. She came by beforehand to meet us and the kitties and learn their routine. Each day, she sent us updates and photos, made sure they had fresh food and water, and spent time playing and giving them plenty of love. We highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter! 🐱😺😸

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.
