“Karolina was great! She took good care of my senior dog while I was on vacation. It was my first experience using rover and the fires in the area added another level of anxiety. Thankfully she put me at ease with the constant feedback.”
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for animals including dogs, cats, and farm animals. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors, and I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and temperament. I also have firsthand experience caring for young puppies after my own dog had a litter, which taught me how much attention, patience, and care younger animals can require. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet seriously. I pay close attention to each animals behavior and wellbeing, follow the owners care instructions, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while their pet is in my care. I’m currently a part-time student, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available for house sitting Friday–Sunday and for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday–Thursday. My hours may vary depending on the day, but I’ll always make sure I can accommodate your pet’s needs and routine before accepting a booking. For house sitting, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any care instructions you provide to help them stay comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, playtime and attention, and a clean and safe environment. I’ll also respect your home and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are properly secured. For dog walks, I’ll keep your dog safely leashed and pay close attention to our surroundings throughout the walk. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding their usual route, behavior around other dogs or people, and anything else I should be aware of to keep them safe and comfortable. For drop-in visits, I’ll check on your pet and take care of their needs according to your instructions, including feeding, refreshing their water, potty breaks, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and playtime. I’ll also keep you updated on how your pet is doing so you can have peace of mind while they’re in my care.
“Minay has been absolutely amazing to both our cats, Miso and Kiki, taking care of them while we were gone for the holidays. This is our first time using her service and it definitely won’t be the last!”
“Abel was very good with communication and my dogs felt very safe with her. I was in a pinch and she stepped on and watched my babies while o was away and she took great care of them. I would for sure book again.”
“Sabrina is super sweet! And even though she wasn’t available the whole time her husband was able to help watch my pup. They handled everything amazingly and I’ll definitely be booking with them again when I go out of town so that I know my dog is in good hands!!”
“Jenny watched our two cats while we were away for five days and she was STELLAR. She was very responsible and prompt with communication, asking questions anytime there was anything unexpected or if something was unclear. Our boys are a bit shy but she did gain their trust and got us some pictures when they finally came out from under the bed. We definitely hope she will be available to book with again the next time we are out of town, and would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Daniele is someone you can trust with your pets! She is very professional and caring it’s like having your family member taking care of your fur babies. She is kind, loving to our dog and cat and follows instructions 100%. I already booked next petsitting with her even before she completed the first one. I am rebooking with her again for sure!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for years, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them and getting to know their individual personalities. I have 10 years of personal experience caring for dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing lots of attention and companionship. From 2020–2023, I also regularly cared for my aunt’s service dog whenever she traveled out of town. That experience taught me how important it is to follow an owner’s instructions carefully and respect an animal’s established routine, especially when caring for a working dog. I also have experience with cats! I owned a cat for a year and spent about 10 months helping care for my roommate’s cat, so I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats attention while also respecting when they want their own space. I know leaving your pet with someone else requires a lot of trust. My goal is to make sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible while their person is away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and I’m comfortable planning my day around their needs. As a college student, I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m also available on weekends and can coordinate care around each pet’s established schedule. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so if your dog expects breakfast at 7 AM or your cat has decided dinner being five minutes late is a personal betrayal, I’ll do my best to keep their normal routine consistent! 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their home, belongings, and pets with the same respect and care I would want someone to show mine. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if applicable and clearly instructed, playtime, litter boxes, routines, and household rules. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure and pay close attention during walks and whenever entering or leaving the home. I never introduce new foods, treats, animals, or activities without the owner’s permission. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so pet parents can relax knowing their pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. 🐕🐈💕
“Sofia came in clutch again for a last minute booking after I'd already left town. Even through a mix up with the keys (my fault) she kept her cool, communicated immediately, and rolled with the change in plans. Definitely recommended and will use again.”
About: Safety first so I double checked my apartment for any hazardous items, edges, or liquids that could possibly endanger any pet! I also love taking lots of pictures with the dogs in my care. Staying active is a priority of mine so it makes it a lot more fun when I can have an active or playful pet around! I ride a skate board so it's easy for me to get around town quickly for in home visits to your pets. Spacious room is ideal for pets with their own beds or toys. I live alone so you can sure all my attention will be focused on the safety and care of your furry friends! Your pet will have my full attention as I don’t work right now I only focus on caring for pets. I also foster dogs here and there. I have plenty experience with all types of dogs and I can easily pick up on whatever your pets needs are.I always will make sure to keep you informed on our daily activities. I currently only go to school online so I will dedicate all of my time to being with the dogs in my care which makes it easier for me to keep track of any special needs your pet may need like medication or strict bathroom breaks things like that. I aim to keep the way that I care for and treat the dogs the same way that they would be treated at home so that they dont develop any inappropriate habits while they are away from home so if they aren't allowed on furniture at home ill be sure to keep them off furniture at my home so that they can stay well trained.

My experienced care can consist of daily walks and feeding to caring for senior pets that need extra attention. I've been trusted with pets because I'm reliable and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'll make sure you're constantly updated on how your pets are doing with lots of pictures,videos and activity reports. I focus on giving each pet the right mix of care, exercise and attention they need. If you're looking for someone dependable to look after your pet, I'd be happy to help. I have flexible availability to fit your pet care needs. I'm fully available on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays. Since I work from home during the day, this allows me to be responsive and reliable when caring for your pet at your home. I have no problems adapting my time to whatever schedule that your pet would require. For longer pet-sitting periods, I can adjust my schedule with advance notice. I provide attentive in home pet care focused on your pet's safety and comfort. I take time to build rapport with your pets throughout my stay.

About: I have a deep love for all animals of all shapes and sizes. Fur, feathers, scales; I love them all! I always put the pet first. Pet care is part of my daily routine! A pet needs daily attention and care. Although some pets don’t need 24/7 care, a little extra connection always goes a long way. I have a running supply of pet care items for all the ‘just-in-case’ times we all run into as pet owners. I prefer visiting the pet at the clients home as to not remove the pet from their most comfortable environment.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Los Angeles Downtown
Imogen is the best carer ever for our cat, Mina! She was so professional, helpful, and communicative while we were away on vacation and she was dropping in to care for Mina, who was on medication. Any nerves I had about leaving our girl while she was on temporary meds were completely put at ease by Imogen’s excellent care. We felt so reassured knowing Mina was in such good hands and happy to see her each day!
We feel so lucky to have found Malia! This was the first time we left our cat alone at home for 4 days and we were so worried that something might go wrong. But Malia made sure that both Lou and us felt completely at ease. She went above and beyond with extra care for Louise and sent us a ton of wonderful photos and videos. She followed every single line of our instructions and made sure Lou felt completely loved and not abandoned while we were away. Thank you very, very much! We'll definitely be booking again! ☺️
Samantha was so great and communicative throughout the stay - even when a leak popped up in my bathroom she let me know right away and helped me hold the fort down. It was a bit of an adjustment for my kitty with a lot of maintenance chaos while I was gone and knowing Samantha was there and checking in gave me so much relief. She did a great job following all my instructions and I definitely would trust her to take care of my kitty again!
I had sage watch over my princess for 2 weeks. And wow I cannot compliment her enough. She updated me about how my cat is doing, played with her, fed her well, and was very flexible. My cat loved her so much!! You can also tell she has so much experience by the way she takes care of other pets. She even talked to my cat and kept her company while I was away. Sage also respects all instructions and is very smart + has great memory. HIGHLY recommend and will keep using sage ❤️

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.

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.
