“Katie was great with our 2 yr old German Shepard for a first walk. She was prompt, professional, and Betty really did well with her. Katie is now our go- to dog walker!”
About: Hi, I’m Madelyn! I’ve been petsitting here on Rover and for local friends and neighbors for the past 7 years now. As well as dogs and cats, I also have a lot of experience with ferrets, lizards, bunnies, backyard animals, fish, and pet birds! Over the past 7 years of housesitting in Marblehead, as well as my childhood years spent on a farm and surrounded by a variety of animals, I have gained a lot of experience and skill, when it comes to working with and connecting with animals. Currently I work with a few families on an as needed basis as a family organizer and infant babysitter. My schedule is flexible, and I don’t work many hours at a time. Petsitting and dogwalking is my main priority and I’m grateful I am able to schedule any other bookings around my schedule. Housesitting: I use your home as my “home base” meaning I will sleep and spend any downtime in your home. This does not mean I will be at your home 24/7. Walks: When walking, I will provide your pup with a 30 or 60 min walk around your neighborhood. I’d be happy to collaborate with local doggy friends for group walks as well! Drop-ins: If you are going away and leaving your little friends home alone, I am available to stop in to provide food, water, potty breaks/cleanups, and lots of cuddles!
“Keelyn is amazing with my difficult cat. She’s kind, calm and very patient with our girl, Cali. I highly recommend her for pet sitting. I felt so happy to be away without worrying how things were going at home with the cat. Hiring anyone to come in my home while I am away was an uncomfortable feeling but Keelyn’s personality and experience put me at ease.”
“Caitlin was an amazing pet sitter for our cat, Sienna. She consistently communicated with us, sending updates and pictures throughout her stay. Caitlin actively played with Sienna and went above and beyond to meet her specific needs. Sienna is very particular about how she drinks water and eats, and Caitlin made sure to accommodate her fully. We highly recommend Caitlin’s services! If you’re ever in need of a responsible and attentive pet sitter, Caitlin is the perfect choice. We couldn’t be more satisfied!”
About: I love dogs, all dogs. I've been a pet owner my entire life. As an adult I have had several pets, they are adventure dogs. Outdoors, hiking, playing at the beach, lots of love, I've been hired several times as a pet masseur. I'm a trainer, all about health and wellness. So I take excellent care of pets no matter if they are mine or not! I have lot of love and patience. So puppies I'm used to training, and up to senior dogs too. Being a trainer makes it easy to take care of pets. My schedule is by the hour and i make my own schedule so this is perfect to fit into what i'm currently doing now. I will easily follow your lead as to what's best for your pet. I can crate them, watch them outside, honestly it depends on the pets needs. I also hav e a 4 door honda element that I bought specifically for my big dogs, so I have lots of room and safe environment for the dogs when it comes to travel if requested.
“Isabella was wonderful. I left detailed instructions including notes on medications and she administered everything perfectly. I will 100% be using Isabella again.”
“Was able to fit me in within a week and took care of my dogs well when I was out. Was communicative especially when I was working a large event and couldn’t get back to him.”
About: I first discovered my passion for animal care in fifth grade when I brought home and later adopted my class pet, Spot, an anole lizard who remained with our family for two years. Since then, I have continued developing hands-on experience caring for animals, including working with reactive dogs. During the pandemic, my family adopted our dog Henry, and through that experience I gained valuable insight into supporting dogs with anxiety and learning effective, patient approaches to behavioral management. I currently have full availability for the summer and am flexible in accommodating a wide range of pet care needs, including daytime, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize clear and consistent communication with pet owners to ensure I fully understand each pet’s individual needs and routine. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care and make sure every pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving the highest quality care possible.
About: I love animals and have fostered countless cats and dogs for the last 40 years. I am sensitive to their overt body language and needs. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can make myself available for last minute care or emergencies, and can be readily reached for updates re the pet I’m caring for. I work for Trusted Pet Sitters and have been taking care of many pets in their homes in that process. I care for cats and dogs in their environment and know how to make them feel safe and loved in their owners’ absence.
“Charlie was absolutely lovely. Very professional while still being friendly and not too formal. Communication was clear and prompt from the planning of the meeting to the actual visits caring for my dog. Definitely will be reaching out again when I next need a dog sitter”
“Paloma was on time for every visit with my kitty! Making sure that she was seen twice a day for her medicine and food. When my cat was difficult about taking her pill, Paloma found a great workaround to get her to take it. She sent many pictures after each visit and spent their time doing what my cat wanted in that moment. I would highly recommend Paloma! I can home to a happy and healthy kitty.”
“We feel super lucky to work with Ely! Our 14-year old terrier mix can be skiddish with new people but Ely won her trust almost instantly! She is easy to work with, a good communicator, takes lots of pictures, and is so good with our dogs.”
About: I have so much love for animals, I will treat your pet as if it was my own and spoil them with all the love! I have experience administering oral medication and following special diets. I’m currently a part time yoga teacher and nanny and have plenty of time to return home in between to make sure your pet is loved, safe and taken care of. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and care for your pet with dedication and love! I live in a quiet neighborhood great for walks and have a back yard and porch as well.
About: I have the unique perspective of a college education and multiple careers that focused on animal behavior, welfare and care. I grew up working on my families farm and riding horses, before going to school for Conservation Biology, entering field work and research, working as a zookeeper for five years, and pack hiking with pups for about a year. I love all animals, big and small, domestic and exotic, and have worked with them the majority of my life. I personally have always had cats, reptiles, rodents and fish as pets, but have always been relied upon by neighbors, friends and family to take care of all their furry (and scaly) friends as well! I also have years of experience with animal training as well, working with both North American River otters and black bears. Training is of special interest to me and while I do have years of practical hands on experience, I hope to pursue official certification soon too. I'd love to give your pets the care, affection and attention they deserve! I'm currently moving to a part time position within my career to allow for more flexibility so I'll have plenty of time to give love to all of your pets. Currently I'll have full free days Thursday through Sunday, and partial availability Monday through Wednesday. I do not have the space to board pets in my home as I live in a one bedroom apartment with my partner and our two cats. However I am very outdoorsy and active and would love to take your pet for long walks or hikes in all their favorite places, and I'd be more than happy to provide outstanding care within their own homes!

Caitlin was fantastic! She was able to accommodate a very last minute request and even squeeze in a meet and greet first. She sent loads of pictures of my cat, and feels genuinely invested in animals care and well-being. Excellent and quick communication all along, as well. I can't wait to use her again!
Brianne took care of my cat for two weeks with drop-in visits and did a great job. She fed her, gave her medication, scooped the litter, and made sure she got some playtime and attention. She even took our trash out. It was such a relief knowing our cat was being looked after so well while we were away. I didn’t have to worry, and that meant everything. I’d absolutely book Brianne again.
Sarah has cat sit for me many times before. This time I was leaving in a hurry with a lot of personal stuff going on, and didn’t have time to prepare for her as much as I usually do. She totally had it covered, and picked up all the slack to make sure my cat was cared for really well! I am so grateful to have her.
Ida was a great sitter!! She checked in on every visit, kept me updated throughout my time away, was on time, punctual and took great care of my cat, Gia. She was also able to administer medications and kept me in the loop with my cats health issues. I would recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter and will definitely book with her again!
Leslie was wonderful caring for our two senior cats while we were away. Each cat has a distinct personality - one is shy and timid while the other is gregarious and outgoing. The daily briefings and multiple photos Leslie provided for each visit ( 2 daily) assured us they were being visited / fed as scheduled,scooped and played with. She also doesn't mind inhome security cameras which is important to us for checking on our seniors. It was a great feeling to travel without worry, we most definitely will be calling Leslie for future needs.

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.
