About: I provide loving, personalized care for your pets and home while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and give them the attention and care they’re used to. I’m happy to care for puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs, including playtime, potty-training support, medication reminders, and lots of extra love. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, young, or elderly, I’ll treat them like family. I’ll also respect your home, keep things tidy, and send regular updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. I currently work full time but with a very flexible schedule that will fit around your pets needs. My normal working hours are Monday-Friday 8am-5pm with a lunch to fit in extra pet snuggles, care and walks. On the weekends, I only regularly attend church either from 8am-11:30am or 9:30am-1pm, it would just depend on your needs. While I’m in your home your pets will be treated with the same amount of care I would provide a child. I’m able to follow your pets normal routine. I’m able to take them on a walk or play with them in the yard, need them to go to a spa day I’m down! If you need many pictures because sometimes we need that reassurance, no problem.

“I needed someone to look after my cat when she couldn't travel with me, and Michaela jumped right in and really helped me out when I thought it would be impossible to find someone on short notice. She sent me lots of pictures and took great care of my cat.”

About: As a dog mom of ten years, I’m very familiar with senior care, medication administration, and general care for dogs. I am very communicative and want you to feel at ease knowing your pet is getting the best quality of care. My dog had special needs and required a lot of attention and care, especially as a senior. I’ll always treat your pup like my own. I also have experience across the board with cats, rabbits, and ferrets. I love all creatures and can’t wait to meet yours! My availability varies week to week as I am a medical student. I will always do my best to accommodate your timeframe and take the best care of your fur baby. I am happy to consider transporting animals and taking care of them in my home. I have a large back and front yard ready for zoomies. I also have reliable transportation to and from your home and local parks so your fur baby can get enough attention and exercise while you are away!

Kerry was very patient and understanding of our reactive dog while watching our cat as well, and she did a great job with him. Communication and punctuality were excellent and she was receptive to any feedback or suggestions about the dog. She even committed to an additional meet and greet to help make him more comfortable for the pet sitting.

Leah was so wonderful taking care of my cats on short notice near a holiday. She went above and beyond running an errand when I didn't leave enough kibble. So grateful for her good care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
