“Amazing and exceptional pet sitter! Took great care of our fur baby for 6 full days. Always on time, took great care of our house, clean-up, lock-up and set the alarm while we were gone. Feels so good to leave on vacation with peace of mind. Definitely rebooking again. So thankful to find this jewel in Humble. Thank you again Leliana!”

About: I didn't grow up with pets of my own, but I've spent plenty of time around animals through roommates' cats and my family's dog, so I'm very comfortable with their routines, quirks, and needs. I know my way around feeding schedules, litter box upkeep, and just generally reading an animal's mood. What I'm most excited about, though, is walking! I'm an avid walker myself, and there's nothing better than having a dog's company along the way. If you're looking for someone who'll give your pup a great, active walk and genuine attention, that's exactly what I'm here for :) I currently work from home in Meridian with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy to coordinate visits around your needs. I'm also a morning person, so if you're looking for a consistent morning walk, that could be a great new routine for both you and your pup! Drop-in visits are also simple to fit in throughout my day, so feel free to reach out if you need something last-minute or a bit outside a typical time slot. Although I haven't had a dog or cat of my own, I've taken care of my cousin's dog and my roommate's cats, and the biggest lesson I've learned from that experience is how important it is to build trust with an animal before anything else. I always take time to let a pet get comfortable with me at their own pace, whether that means a calm introduction, letting them sniff around and get used to my presence, or simply being patient before jumping into walks or play. I stay attentive throughout each visit, watching for any signs of discomfort or anxiety, and adjust my approach based on what each pet needs. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first with me.

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have raised my 14 year old dachshund and 8 year old Great Dane! I have been pet sitting for my friends and family for many years! I love all animals! I currently travel the states with my husband for his job. I can check on your pets or simply walk them for you on the weekends! Unfortunately, we move every month so I can not do long term visits. I am honored to help out as much as I can. A pets safety is my top priority! I never let the pets out of my sight and follow all pet instructions carefully. My 14 year old dog is on several medications, so I am very particular about how someone else takes care of her. I would never want my clients to worry that their pets are not being taken care of.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little. My aunt breeds dogs and I used to volunteer at a horse rescue center with dogs all the time. I love animals I’ve been around dogs ever since I was little. As of now I work a part time job and enjoy doing side hustles and little jobs here and there.

I can take them on walks and give them medications if they need.

“Ashley went above and beyond in taking care on my beloved furry family members. I was worried about them while I was gone but she made sure they felt loved. Not only feeding my animals, but taking them on walks, giving lots of pets, and spending that extra bit of time with them has made me decide to keep Ashley on for as long as possible for when I need someone to take care of my animals. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone and everyone.”

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals such as; dogs, cats, birds, turtles and even fishes. I enjoy helping people care for their pets while being at work, school or out for vacationing. It’s been my passion to help train animals and feed them and take them for vaccinations or grooming and walks and etc. I’m currently working part time due to myself having a kid to take care of but other than that I can still manage to take care of any animal that is in need of a caring home. I’m also available to provide services at my own home just as well as going to someone else home. I’m available five days out the week during early mornings or late evenings. I provide toys, cages, food, water and little treats for dogs and cats or birds. I play with them bathe them, walk them feed them and also train them as well if needed.

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 .

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 .

Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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 request a 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 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.
