About: Hi 👋 I'm Michelle, I've had dogs from the time I was in kindergarten. I started with one dog and added more to the family throughout the younger years of my life. At one point I had five dogs and one cat together at once. I am experienced with puppies, dogs, and seniors. I have a flexible schedule and can work with pretty much any routine that is needed for you and your animal. If you let me know what schedule is required for you and your pet I will make sure I am able to accommodate it. I always walk puppies and dogs on a leash so they do not run away or get lost. Watching an animal is necessary at all times even while inside, because you never know what they can get into. It's important that animals have a blast while their parents are gone but safety is always maintained. I will also be glad to take photos and send them to you so you know your pet is doing good.
“Ashley was great, keeping us updated frequently about our sweet Snowy. She fed him and changed the litter box more often than we do. lol. She is very pleasant and is certainly a pet lover. Lots of pictures kept us in touch.”
“Larissa was fantastic. My fur babies instantly took to her. My one cat Smokey has an enlarged heart, so it was very important to me to be constantly updated. She didn’t disappoint and she took some of the cutest pics of my babies. Will definitely book again. Thank You ❤️”
About: I am experienced with both dogs and cats. 8 years of hands-on dog care (Golden Retriever) paired with a lifetime of experience around cats. For larger breeds I know they need a confident, attentive hand for their exercise, feeding, and energy levels. While cats need patience and an understanding of their independent nature. Whichever you have, I treat every pet like my own, so you can travel with total peace of mind knowing they are in capable caring hands. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my schedule. I currently have full flexibility and can accommodate care whenever needed, with no conflicts or restrictions on availability. I follow your instructions exactly, secure your home, maintain feeding and medication schedules, watch for an issues, and send regular updates so you feel at ease.
“Leslie has been wonderful- she's been friendly, responsive, and caring with my puppy. I'm thankful I can depend on her to show up each day to give my pup some much-needed outside time and food. Her daily updates are also appreciated. My Emmie girl has been much more relaxed when I get home since meeting Leslie. I highly recommend her :)”

About: I used to help my aunt from up north in Boston take care of dogs for 2 years. I did overnight care, and my job was to feed up to 60 dogs all on my own, and administer and medications that were needed. I took care of some NHL players dogs, as my aunts business was a high end service, so I have been taught to give nothing less than excellence. I am currently a flight attendant so on days that I am flying, I will make sure to let the pet owner know. But a lot of the days I am free, I can come by as often as someone would like. I have no problem, making sure that I fit in the owner schedule so that the pet feels as most comfortable as possible. I will follow any and all rules that you provide for me. I will meet with you prior to any care giving provided to make sure that me and your fur baby have a great connection. If you would like to receive photos every time I am with your fur baby, I am more than happy to provide updates in that form.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life ranging from Bloodhound to French Bulldogs and professionally I’ve been taking care of dogs for about 2 years now. I’m currently working part time on yachts so the days I’m not working I wanted to do something I’m passionate for and that is taking care of animals. I have a fenced in back yard and have one of my own fur babies that sleep in my room every night and would love the company.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Margate
She did a great job taking care of our cat! She followed all of our instructions carefully, kept us updated, and made sure our kitty was well taken care of. She was reliable, responsible, and easy to communicate with. We really appreciated her help and would definitely book her again. Highly recommend!
As a pet owner over the past 26 years I have worked with many pet sitters, Ariela is by far among the top three ever. This is because she is not only caring but also she is very responsible. I always come back to a home which is calm with a happy cat and everything is clean and orderly. I will definitely work with her again and recommend her highly.
Another wonderful trip without worrying about our fur-babies. Ari is the absolute best, thank you for all of the pictures to let us know they were doing so well in your care while we were away. Amazing love and care is evident in all of your time spent with them. Thank you so much
Being my first time away from my pet, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than I did with Aleanna. She was kind and responsive with my initial questions and eased my concerns throughout the process. She followed my instructions perfectly and provided sweet updates with every visit. Will definitely request her services in the future.

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
