“Bridget was excellent with our cats and snake! She was very proactive in asking questions about the care needed by our pets. She communicated with us very promptly during visits and took the time to take a lot of photos of our babies for us. Overall, she was very kind and professional and we both knew our pets were in good hands. We’ll definitely be asking for her help again in the future!”
About: I grew up dog sitting for my neighbor pretty often. They'd leave for trips every few months and I got to dog sit for them while they were away. Feeding, taking him out for potty, and occasionally going on walks too. Not to mention I've had dogs and cats of my own through the years so I'm pretty versed in pet care for most kinds of common pets. Currently i am working part time as a manager, so most often I am scheduled to work the second half of the week, but even then I can make pet visits before or after work. I keep them close on a leash when we go for walks, make sure not to over feed them, and I make sure to be sweet and patient with them during baths.
About: I currently have one dog, two cats, and one bunny so I have experience with all kinds of animals! I grew up with dogs my whole life and did a lot of house sitting/dog sitting throughout high school. I absolutely love playing, walking, and spending time with animals. I am currently going to school to become a veterinary technician because of my passion for animals! I’ve dealt with every age before from puppies to senior dogs, so I’m no stranger to clean up and administering medication. I guarantee I will treat your animals with the love and care they deserve! I work part time currently but will be having a lot more availability as I go back to school. I should be available everyday as times may vary. I always take proper precautions when taking care of animals, especially outside. Depending on owners preference, I will always make sure they are with me in the safety of a yard or on a leash. They will always remain with me and in my sight.
About: I am an animal lover! I have a dog named piper she's a small little angel and my life hasn't been the same since I've had her. I want people to feel comfortable leaving their furry bundles of love with someone who can love and protect them! I take the dogs I am watching to the dog park at my apartment where they can run and play. Also, if interested I can bathe your dog before he or she comes home. Your dog will have a blast with many toys and walks and naps on the couch! I am a currently not working so I’ll be at home all day with my fur babies and hopefully yours. I have a very flexible schedule I always keep the dogs I am watching on a leash unless it is a fenced backyard. I’m always paying attention and capturing cute moments.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington
This was our first time using Rover and we were a bit nervous. What a WONDERFUL experience! Nicole came over ahead of time to meet Sophie and learn about her routine. She was very reassuring! We appreciated the great communication and daily updates! Thank you so much, Nicole! We will definitely be using her again!
As always, Nicole took excellent care of my cats, including one who has a rather complicated array of medications for heart disease and another who needs thyroid medication. She made sure they received all their medications as well as food, water, litter boxes, and giving them some love in our absence. She is very responsible with the cats as well as the house.
Thank you, Caitlin for taking such amazing care of my six fur babies while I was gone on my road trip. I highly recommend Caitlin, she was extremely communicative every time she did her check-in. And she set up a meet and greet before I even left on my vacation. I felt comfortable with her from the first minute I met her and will be booking her again.

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.

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 .
