About: Growing up with dogs in our household fostered a deep love and appreciation for dogs and animals in general. Over the last few years I’ve gained valuable pet care experience. I enjoy connecting and providing special care to all creatures. I’m currently living in Beverly and working remote. I’m able to do walks, check-ins, and pet sitting mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m flexible and ready to provide exceptional care to your pets. Caring for pets in your home is no different than caring for children in your home. A high level of attention is non-negotiable so maintaining a solid walking, playing, and feeding schedule is of the upmost importance. Cuddles, belly rubs, and scratchies are also of the upmost importance.

“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!”

She would send pictures and updates at each visit which is comforting to know that Calamari is well taken care of and happy. Vanessa is reliable, communicative, and most importantly she’s passionate about taking great care of our pets. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Just here to take that worry off your plate completely and replace it with real peace of mind. This is incredibly personal to me because I’ve always believed pets are family. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the lifetime of hands-on experience I’ve had with animals and the calm, attentive care I provide. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs and have continued to be around them ever since, so being around animals feels very natural to me. When caring for pets for friends and family, I’ve often watched multiple animals at once, usually two or three dogs along with a few cats, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’m experienced with everyday pet care tasks such as walking, playtime, bathroom breaks, feeding schedules, and administering medications when needed. I also make it a priority to give each pet attention and care tailored to their individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I currently work full time, so I’m typically available for pet care in the afternoons and evenings during the week, as well as on weekends. Depending on the location, I may also be available for visits during my lunch break on weekdays. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that fit their pet’s routine and make sure they receive consistent, reliable care. Unfortunately I currently live in an apartment that doesn’t allow pets, but I have a cat who lives with my parents, so I’m very familiar with daily pet care and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I make sure to stick to the pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also treat every home with respect, keeping things clean, secure, and making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: My mom was a vet growing up as well as a dog trainer and daycare owner. I have taken care of dogs with her for years and have also learned basics like giving dogs insulin, flea meds, and other meds. I am a college student at endicott college in Beverly Ma, I am just looking to make extra money and get outside and with some furry friends! I miss my animals and love the fulfillment of playing with them. My dogs at home have an invisible fence. I still usually will check on them a few times to make sure they haven’t gotten out, but that is a very rare occasion. In the past when taking care of animals without an invisible fence, I be sure to have them on a leash or in very close proximity.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and have had a cat and dog of my own since I was a child, so I know just how much our pets become a part of the family. I’ve also had the opportunity to care for my neighbors’ and friends’ pets while they’ve been away on vacation, giving me experience with keeping pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routines while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and independent, or happiest curled up in a cozy spot, I’ll meet them where they’re comfortable. Most importantly, I’ll treat your fur babies like family and give them the same love, care, and attention I’d want for my own. 🐾❤️ I’m currently in nursing school, so while I do have a structured schedule, I also have plenty time during both the week and weekend to care for your pets. I’m organized, responsible, and comfortable following specific instructions, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, cleaning litter boxes, or making sure your cat gets plenty of playtime and attention. I’ll always do my best to make caring for your fur baby as seamless and stress-free as possible while you’re away! First things first, I would 100% die for your pet. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific care instructions and routines. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own, while making sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m also more than happy to keep you updated with plenty of pictures and updates so you know your baby is happy and doing well! And of course, I am ready to give your pet allll the love and attention they deserve while you are gone!

About: I started taking care of dogs when I was about 10 years old. Along with babysitting, family members, friends and colleagues have counted on me to watch over, feed, bathe and walk their pets. Fast forward 16 years and I am now a veterinary technician! I have 7 years of experience in this role and I love every second of it. What does this mean for you and your pets? I’m trained on how to handle puppies all the way to senior care. If your pet needs medication daily, I’m your girl! While I do work a busy schedule, as well as being a full time college student, I am able to fit pet care into my daily routine! I am unavailable on Mondays and Tuesdays unless you are looking for a quick drop in around lunch time or after 7pm. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I have availability after 1:30pm and weekends are totally free unless I have a prior engagement! I can be flexible with these hours as well if we needed to work something out that fits your needs better! I’ve been a vet tech for quite a while now and have learned how to read each pet and their temperment. I have basic knowledge and understanding on how to handle an emergency situation. I will do my best to ensure that our time together is filled with happy tail wags, lots of snuggles and enrichment as well! I look forward to meeting you and your pup(or your kitty)!

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. Growing up with pups taught me how to read their body language, keep them safe, and give them the exercise they need. I regularly provide sitting and walking services for friends and family when they travel. I take deep pride in caregiving. When your dog is with me, they are treated exactly like a member of my own family! While I work full-time, my schedule is incredibly flexible and allows me to prioritize your pet's needs. I have the freedom to manage my time throughout the day, meaning I can easily step away for mid-day drop-ins, regular potty breaks, and structured walk times.Whether your pet needs morning company, a afternoon stretch, or evening feeding, I can adapt my routine to keep their schedule perfectly consistent. You can rest easy knowing I will be there whenever your pet needs me! When caring for your pets in your home, my top priorities are maintaining their exact routine and keeping your property secure. I understand that pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I strictly follow your rules for feeding, exercise, and bedtime.I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping areas clean and ensuring all doors and gates are locked tight during every visit. I also provide regular text and photo updates so you can travel with complete peace of mind, knowing both your pet and your home are in safe hands.

We hired Jamie based on her recommendations and repeated customers here on Rover. I was nervous to leave my two kitties, especially my elder cat who is chronically ill. Jamie was punctual and attentive to their needs, feeding, dispensing my calico’s meds, and spending time with both. She alleviated my fears by being in touch during visits, and the photos she sent assured me that they were in good hands. They seemed calm and happy, responding to her positively. My second cat is very shy, and her approach obviously was effective as her photos show him very chill. I recommend her highly.

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 .

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 .

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.
