“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: When you entrust your pet to me, you're choosing someone whose career has been built on compassion, responsibility, and exceptional care. As a registered nurse with over 12 years of experience, I understand that every living being deserves individualized attention, patience, and a safe, nurturing environment. Caring for others is second nature to me. Throughout my nursing career, I've specialized in caring for seniors and individuals with unique medical and emotional needs. Those same skills translate seamlessly to pet care. Whether your pet is a playful puppy or kitten, a senior needing extra patience, requires medication, has special needs, or simply thrives with extra love and attention, I have the experience and confidence to provide attentive, reliable care. Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has always been more than a job—it's a passion. In addition to nursing, I own and operate my own concierge nursing and pet care business, where trust, professionalism, and personalized service are the foundation of everything I do. I know leaving your pet behind can be stressful. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind by treating your dog or cat like a member of my own family. You'll receive dependable communication, regular updates, and the reassurance that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all pet care. Every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved from the moment they arrive. My commitment is to provide the same level of compassion, attention, and professionalism that I would want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a nurse three days a week, which allows me plenty of flexibility and dedicated time on my days off to focus on pet care. On my off days, I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for by making sure they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and any needed special care or medication. Because I’m used to working in a caregiving profession, I’m very organized and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide dependable, unhurried care so each pet gets the attention they deserve, whether that’s extra walks, cuddle time, or sticking closely to their normal routine. I provide flexible, reliable, and attentive care both in my home and in my clients’ homes, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I offer drop-in visits, daily care, and overnight stays, as well as boarding in my own home where pets are welcomed into a safe, calm, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and any special routines are handled with consistency and care. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care throughout the day. In all settings, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine love. I also believe in clear communication, so I provide regular updates and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is always to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

About: I have a lot of experience volunteering at various animal shelters and caring for cats and dogs of all ages. I have had elderly, disabled and animals in need of help due to an illness in my care as well. I have also had limited experience training younger dogs. I am currently working completely online, so I will have plenty of time to care for animals! However, I will have commitments on most weekends. I have a spacious house, with multiple levels, which can be blocked off in case an animal may not be able to use them. I also have a large backyard with plenty of room for larger animals to run around. I have no other pets. I am also able to crate a dog in case they are crate trained, and am quite flexible with any other accommodations for an animal.

About: Hello! My name is Victoria and I am a part time college student, full time animal lover. I have had pets all my life (dogs, a cat, fish, hermit crabs, and a bunny) and have yet to meet an animal I don’t love. Aside from my own pets, I have cared for (overnight stays, walks, daytime drops ins) for friends and family’s pets since I was in high school. Being that I only go to school part time, I have more time to spend with and care for my dog, and hopefully your furry friend too. I have personal experience with dogs as small as chihuahuas and as big as pit bulls and do not discriminate against any of them. On top of that, I have experience with dogs as young as two months old. I look forward to working with you and your furry friends!

About: Craft an engaging "About Me" Tell pet owners about the love and care you’ll provide for their pets. Don’t be afraid to brag about your pet care experience, special skills, your personal qualities, and how you will keep their pets happy and safe. What sorts of activities will a dog enjoy on a stay with you? Where will you go on walks? What fun activities will you do together? What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences? Do you know dog first aid and/or CPR? Yes No Can you administer oral medication to dogs? Yes No Can you administer injected medication to dogs? Yes No Do you have experience taking care of senior dogs? Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. In a client’s home, I respect and follow each owner’s routines, feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I am mindful of their behavior, body language, and safety during walks and visits, and I always ensure pets have fresh water, supervision, affection, and a clean environment. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I provide updates, photos, and check-ins to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, supported, and confident in the care being provided.

About: Hi, I’m Isabella and I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and reliable care! Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always my top priority, as my experience with a variety of species supports my desire to provide. I currently work at a veterinary hospital, caring for pets of all ages (from babies to seniors) so I’m comfortable handling a wide range of needs. My experience goes beyond work also as I’ve had a variety of pets throughout my life! I’m currently finishing up some summer college credits, which gives me great flexibility for early morning and mid-to-late day check-ins after class. My schedule is consistent week-to-week, so you can count on reliable timing and routine for your pet! I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and prioritize any preferences your pet is used to. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands!

She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!! Thank you for taking such great care of Linkin and Hudson!”

About: I have been petsitting for over 10 years now! I absolutely love animals, and I see it as a real gift to care for other people’s beloved companions. I’ve had the pleasure of sitting for both cats and dogs, and earlier this year I also ran a small farm on my own for three weeks, caring for goats and chickens. I pride myself on being responsible, reliable, and deeply caring; maintaining structure and routine for animals while also offering plenty of affection, cuddles, and attention. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and caring for your home and pets! I am a writer who uses petsitting opportunities to focus on my writing! I also teach yoga & playwriting and host events! My weekly routine is pretty flexible in many ways so if you have a unique time or petsitting request, please reach out! I take being in other people's homes to be a matter of great responsibility and care. I have had the honor of pet sitting all over the world now, and I really treat other people's homes as my home when I am there. I am very clean and attentive to details. I am also the type of person to go for long walks, meditate and do yoga. I don't drink, and enjoy the simple things in life. If you have a dog that love walks, we will be best friends.

About: Hi! I’m Rebecca! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, and I’m currently a proud pet mom to three of my own—a dog and two cats. ❤️🐶🐱🐱 I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup needs a walk and some playtime, your cat needs a little company, or your pets need someone reliable to check in on them, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. What you can expect from me: 🐾 Lots of love, attention & playtime 📸 Photos and updates during every visit 📝 Following feeding, medication, potty, and other routines carefully 💕 Patience with shy, nervous, energetic, or cuddly pets 🏡 Respect for your home and your instructions I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry family! 🐾❤️ During the week, I work as a paraprofessional at the Matheny School in Peapack-Gladstone, New Jersey. I’m typically at work by 8:30 AM and finish around 4:00 PM. I’m available for pet care before work, on my way to work, and after work, making it easy to accommodate morning walks, drop-ins, evening walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of cuddles! Weekends are generally very flexible, and I’m usually available for longer visits, walks, drop- ins, and extended care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual routine and schedule whenever possible. 🐶🐱💕 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and any special needs or preferences your pet may have. I’m attentive to their behavior and surroundings and will always prioritize their safety. I also believe communication is important! I’ll keep you updated during visits and send photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll treat your space with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own home. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. ❤️🐾

About: I’m that friend who always volunteers to watch the dog — because I genuinely love it. I grew up with three dogs, helped my sister with her pups, and even lived with a roommate who ran a doggy daycare. I miss having furry energy around, so I’m here to give yours all the love, walks, and playtime they need! I currently work remote and am free most weeknights and weekends, so I have the flexibility during my lunch break or the ability to spend some time with the pup on a weekend. When I’m caring for your dog in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow all your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walk times to any special quirks or care details that make your pup feel safe and happy. I take time to bond with each dog so they feel comfortable with me while you’re away. Whether that means playtime in the yard, cozy cuddle sessions, or just quiet companionship, I adjust to what your pet needs. I’m respectful of your space, clean up after myself (and your dog!), and always make sure things are left as I found them. Because I’ve lived with and cared for dogs in all kinds of homes — including helping with a former roommate’s doggy daycare — I know how to be a calm, trustworthy presence in your dog’s environment. Your pup will be in loving, capable hands, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re happy and cared for.

Wonderful experience as always. Very attentive and left great notes to ease our anxiety about leaving our fur babies. Took lots of photos and when our hider decided to disappear from view for a few days she asked where to look to ensure she was still healthy and fine. Once again another great service by Christine.

Brooke was thorough, attentive, and dependable. She visited our two cats twice each day for a week, giving injectable insulin to our one diabetic cat at each visit. Our other cat is very shy and hides but Brooke always located her (usually finding her under a bed!) to make sure she was okay. Would definitely hire Brooke again!

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. 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.
