About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also volunteer at St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center, where I socialize with dogs and cats, take dogs on walks, play with them, and help with their overall care. I’m comfortable feeding pets, providing fresh water, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m an active person, so longer walks and hikes are always a pleasure, especially for energetic dogs! I’m also happy to handle the less glamorous parts of pet care. If your pet has an accident inside the house, I have no problem cleaning it up and making sure everything is left clean and comfortable. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with patience, care, and lots of attention while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, afternoon, and evening visits, depending on the day and your pet’s needs. On weekends, I’m available throughout the day and can easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and longer visits. Safety is always my priority. I prefer to keep dogs on a leash during walks and make sure they’re secure and comfortable at all times. Depending on your preferences and your dog’s routine, I can supervise them in the backyard, take them for walks around the neighborhood, or bring them to a dog park for some exercise and playtime. I’ll always follow your instructions and make sure your dog gets the type of activity they’re used to.

“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Marx. Not only did she check in on him daily while we were away but she truly cared for him making sure he got plenty of attention, love, and mental stimulation in addition to the basics of food, water, and litter cleanings. Could not be happier in selecting Nicole to care for our family member.”

“I really appreciate Anya’s gentle approach with our foster kitty and their attention to detail in the visit reports. A week ago, little dude was living in a park and starving, so he’s going through a lot of change and needs a soft and caring touch. If he becomes a permanent member of the family, we will gladly have Anya back anytime.”

About: Since 2017, I’ve been providing dependable and consistent care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Each walk or visit is tailored to each dog’s personality, temperament and physical condition, from puppies to senior dogs. I walk one household at a time, which helps reduce stress and keeps the experience calm and focused on your pet. Dogs are family and my goal is to keep them comfortable and happy so that every pet owner has peace of mind when their pet is in my care. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs or cats, Monday through Friday: 8 am to 4 pm; Saturday and Sunday: 8 am to 12 pm. For your dog's safety, dogs are prolific sniffers, inevitably putting things in their mouths that they shouldn't. I pay close attention to and keep a watchful eye on the ground to make sure your dog doesn't put anything in its mouth that can be harmful. In the unlikely event your dog or cat needs medical attention, I’m certified in cat and dog first aid by the American Red Cross.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, structure, and personalized attention I provide to every dog in my home. With a fully fenced-in yard and a safe, cozy environment, your dog will feel right at home the moment they arrive. I treat every pup like family, making sure they get plenty of playtime, cuddles, and calm, consistent care tailored to their needs. Whether it’s a weekend away or a longer trip, I provide peace of mind through loving, dependable, and stress-free boarding. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, from morning walks to evening playtime, it’s built into the rhythm of my day. I work from home, so your dog will have consistent companionship, attention, and care throughout their stay. I care for every dog like they’re my own - with plenty of love, attention, and a safe, enriching environment. We go on daily walks for fresh air and stimulation, and there’s endless playtime in my fully fenced-in backyard, where pups can run, explore, or just relax. The yard has both sunny spots for sunbathers and shaded areas on the patio for cooling down, so every dog can find their comfort zone. Whether it’s structured activity or cozy downtime, I make sure each pet gets the right balance of exercise, companionship, and care tailored to their needs.

I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! From the very beginning, they were professional, reliable, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. They took the time to understand my cat’s routine, personality, and needs, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that reassured me my cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was obvious my cat felt safe and relaxed, which says everything. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!

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 .

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 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.
