“Alicia was great with our girls. One of our girls is still adjusting to our house. Her quiet steps in the house is just what she needed. Communication was excellent and flexible.”
About: Georgia and I have been taking care of pets since we were young children. We have both dogs and cats. Our experience ranges from puppies, senior dogs, kittens, and older cats. We have open availability and are willing to be flexible. Whether your pet is extremely friendly, or more skittish, we are excited to meet them! We are both currently part time in school, with very flexible schedules. I am in school Monday and Wednesday, while Georgia is in school on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. This makes us available 7 days a week! We are willing to follow any schedule your furry friend needs! Whether it’s daily walks, cuddles, or crate training, we got it. We monitor pets with care and are very open with constant communication and daily photos of your pets .
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, my sisters will ask me to watch them if they are away and I have two cats I work full time 9-5 but have plenty of time in the morning and evenings. I am also available on the weekends. I also work from home on Fridays so my day is flexible I take care of two cats at my house, I have helped friends and family with pet sitting their dogs, giving them company and taking them on walks
About: 8+ years of in-home pet care in South Jersey, plus veterinary assistant experience in clinic. I have worked with dogs, cats, chickens, goats, aquatic pets (turtles, frogs, fish), and reptiles. Clinic work is why medically complex and senior pets are a fit, not a stretch: oral meds, insulin and other injections, watching appetite / mobility / bathroom changes, and knowing when to text you versus when to call the vet. I am especially strong with: • Diabetic dogs, including twice-daily insulin • Anxious or slow-to-warm dogs — space first, trust second • Senior dogs and special-needs dogs • Multi-dog and dog + cat households • Reptiles and other “please don’t forget the heat lamp” pets I take a limited number of clients so I can actually keep your pet’s routine — same walk times, same feeding windows, same bedtime rituals. I’m studying occupational therapy. Class and clinic are on my calendar in advance, so when I accept a sit I am actually in your home or at your door, not squeezing you between a full boarder’s list. House sits: I stay overnight in your home. Drop-ins and walks: I book around real med and meal times, not whenever it’s convenient for me. Weekends and holiday windows are when I’m most open. I’m based in Medford. Walks and drop-ins stay inside about 15 miles so I can be on time. If you’re not sure I cover you, send the request anyway — I’ll be honest about drive time. I sit in your home. I do not board other animals at mine. I have two senior dogs and two reptiles, and your pets stay in their own territory — that’s safer for my seniors and calmer for yours. Clinic work is why medically complex pets are a fit, not a stretch: oral meds, insulin and other injections, First Aid/CPR. Pills, post-op care, and “is this an emergency or a weird quirk” are normal for me. If your dog needs two shots a day, I set alarms. If something looks off, you hear from me immediately. I follow your rules in your house — crate, gates, furniture, thermostat, alarm, trash, mail. I don’t treat your home like a hotel and your pet like a side task. Meet & greets are required for first-time overnights so your pet can interview me before you leave.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. There has not been a time where I wasn’t caring for pets. I have also watched my friends and family’s pets. I have given medicine when needed. I work full time but that doesn’t stop me from loving furry friends. I am able to walk, play, and take care of pets before and after work. I have an apartment, which is why I would prefer to come to you! Keeping your pet in their comfort zone also helps me be able to take care of them!
“This is the second time we’ve had Katie take care of our cat during our lengthy vacation and everything went great. Not only did she take amazing care of our cat but she went above and beyond with sweeping the bathroom and refilling litter boxes.”
“Savannah took such good care of our cat! It was our first vacation since we got him and we were a little nervous because he can be anxious. Savannah sent lots of cute updates, pictures, and videos so I knew he was happy at home!”
About: My name is Rashad I am a 32 year old who has always had a strong love for pets. I am local to the Blackwood area but I will travel to care for your animals personally. I have personally owned 3 dogs, a Weimaraner named Bella, pitbull terrier mix named Jay and a toy sized Yorkshire terrier named Chloe. Unfortunately I am no longer a pet owner but I still I hope to be able to watch over some other furry companions to fill the void that has been made by their absence. I have experience as a manager at Petco so not only do I know how to care for dogs, I am well versed in the basic needs for most reptiles, birds, cats, and other small animals.I have no problem accepting pets that are not spayed or neutered for some reason rover won’t let me change that setting on my profile, so please disregard. I hope to share my affinity for pets with other pet parents while they allow me to host their fur children and look forward to yet again feeling the comfort of a four legged friend in my home. I work a rotating schedule with 12 hour shifts at a healthcare facility. I do my best to keep my calendar up to date but I am flexible so I do encourage you to reach out to me directly with an inquiries about dates and times I am available. I’m typically available early mornings and in the evening on the days I’m working but on my off days I am ready to be an all day companion for your furry friend! I have many years experience working with dogs and cats of all sizes and breed. I know how important it is to provide a safe and friendly environment to our four legged friends. I always try and approach any arrangement with both the owners and pets best interest in mind. I look forward to crafting a safe and trustworthy environment for your furever friends.
“Chris was wonderful with my cat Fenrys - he sent great updates daily, and went about making friends at Fenrys’s pace. I felt so secure leaving him in Chris’s care!”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. Growing up, I always had at least one animal in my house, from guinea pigs to cats, dogs to parrots, I’ve always loved having a furry friend around. I currently have one cat who is my absolute world. I promise to bring that love and affection to every animal. I’m not the type that is satisfied with taking a dog for a quick walk around the block and leaving him or her alone. They deserve to be treated like the family members that they are! I also understand that some animals have special needs and I am very patient when it comes to making time for those needs. Let me know if you have any questions for me! I can’t wait to take care of your fur babies! I work full time Monday through Friday but I am home most weekends. I only work until about 5pm most weekdays so if your furry friend needs some late night attention, I can definitely provide that. I treat every pet and home as if it were my own. All pets deserve hugs and kisses upon arrival and a kiss goodbye every day. They’re fur babies after all! I am very diligent about cleaning up after my cat and it will be no different when it comes to your pet: cans of food get rinsed out and go in the recycling bin, doggy poop bags go in the trash, and litter boxes get scooped every day. They rely on us to do these things! That’s the whole point of having a pet!
“What can we say! Lucy was a last minute find as we lost our other sitter. She went out of her way to meet up and put us at ease. Our two senior dogs absolutely love her. She's extremely personable and responsible, asking all the right questions and making sure we were in constant contact throughout. She sent pictures too that allowed us to see how well the pups were doing. We plan to use her again and recommend her to other family. While the dogs were excited to see us, they clearly miss her. Thank you Lucy!”
“Greg was really great with our three cats! He took care to make sure everyone was ok during his daily drop ins, and was very thorough with all of the feeding and care tasks we had for him to do. Our cats loved him, he has a good way of relating to animals of all different personalities. Would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody for daily cat care.”
About: I've loved taking care of dogs of all kinds of my own and friends and family from a young age! Currently I have a two at home and know how much of a part of the family they are. My goal is to meet your needs for your pups and keep them comfortable when you need to be away from home! I am currently a student and only working part time so have plenty of time in the mornings and late afternoon/evening to care for and check in on your pets! I am very open and flexible to you and your pets needs! Comfortable with crating your pup if needed or bringing them out for walks. My goal is to make sure they are well cared for and comfortable based on your routine!
“Thanks for a great home stay. My babies were well cared for and happy and healthy when I got home. I have a very picky eater so this is a real concern for me when I leave! My home was in great shape when I returned too! Appreciate all the extra care and attention! I highly recommend Meghan if your looking for a Housesitter!”
About: I've taken care of many dogs, my own and family members. I've walked family dogs for a while as well. I'm able to care for seniors!! I'm not employed this summer so my hours are super flexible!! I have transportation as well, since I care for my own pets the nature of pet care is in my daily routine! I have a fenced yard, and two dogs that can help your fur baby feel comfortable! I care for all my pets deeply and also am willing to meet there needs in whatever way I can. I've got experience working with all kinds of personalities! And have taken courses in college dedicated to animal care. I truly do love all animals! I have my own dogs and a cat who I adore! I'm also able to care for some exotic critters like birds, reptiles, or small mammals!
About: I have taken care of my relative's pets since about 13 years old. I have experience with not only dogs and cats, but exotic animals too (birds, rodents, and reptiles). I also work as a Veterinary Assistant at an emergency vet hospital. I aspire to become a licensed technician one day, and maybe even a veterinarian in the future. Animals are my passion, not only because of my adoration for them, but mainly because of my love for animal care and rehabilitation. I have three pets of my own: Luna (6 year old cat), Rubio (6 month old kitten), and Bruno (2 year old dog). So it's safe to say I have good experience with at home pet care. Working in a veterinary ER has definitely helped me gain practical skills like emergency preparedness and building client communication/relationship skills. I believe I can strengthen my animal handling and animal body language skills, as well as learn more about pet health and safety. I currently work Wednesday’s to Saturday’s at an emergency vet hospital as an assistant. I’ve been working as an assistant for one year and a half and I aspire to become a technician. Because I work in such a busy environment daily, pet-sitting is such a lovely change. With pet-sitting, I believe I can strengthen my animal handling and animal body language skills, as well as learn more about pet health and safety. I have two cats and a dog at home so I definitely have experience with at-home pet care/rehabilitation. My pets eat twice a day (I feed them ingredient safe wet/dry food with added supplements/vitamins). My favorite thing to do is walk my dog and nap with my cats. Grooming is something I also do at home for them (baths, subtle hair trims, brushing hair/teeth, and nail cutting. I would make sure to keep my client’s home in prim condition and I live by the phrase, “Leave things better than how you found it.”

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.

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.
