“Lehna was amazing. She communicates in a timely manner and clearly loves pets. She took care of my two cats on short notice, and I've never felt more relaxed while away. She documented everything she did on each visit and shared photos. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors’ and family members’ pets since I was little, and been a reliable and trustworthy caretaker. I have been caring for dogs for five years, including elderly, deaf, and blind dogs. I understand the nuance to earning trust of shy or elderly pets. I have always loved animals and I have repeat clients that find me reliable and loved by their pets. My schedule is very open right now, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them the attention and love they deserve. I have pets of my own at my home where I live with my parents, so I will care for your pets in your home, either staying at the house or doing drop-ins. I am clean and respectful and I love spending time with animals, respecting and getting to know them on their terms.

“I so appreciate Lindsey's superb care of our cat and house during a recent five-day trip. Lindsey is prompt, capable and an excellent communicator. Our energetic cat thrived on Lindsey's watch. Lindsey went above and beyond—including helping me get to the airport and back on time. It was great to return home to a happy, healthy cat and tidy house! Thank you, Lindsey!”
“Leanne was absolutely wonderful! She took such amazing care of my cat while I was away — I could tell right away that she’s not only incredibly attentive but also genuinely loves animals. She kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which made me feel so much more at ease being away from home. My cat, who is usually shy around new people, quickly warmed up to her thanks to her kind and patient nature. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience — I’ll definitely be booking with Leanne again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly caring and reliable!”

“While we were away on vacation, our usual cat sitter had an emergency and had to leave our cats alone without supervision. We booked Bryan to fill in and not only was he available at a moments notice, but he was also able to bond with our cats the moment he arrived. He sent us pictures of our cats so we knew they were safe, and he was even got our problem cat, Dave, to come out of his hiding spot for some pets. This cat never lets anyone pet him and we were surprised at how quickly he bonded with Bryan. We highly recommend Bryan as a cat sitter and we will continue to book with him every time we travel!”

I’d love to spoil your furry friend and make them feel right at home, like the family they are to us. I work as a bartender at concerts and events, so my schedule is mostly in the evenings.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Montara
Lehna is truly a Cat Whisperer; our antisocial, anxious cats did so well under her care, could not be more pleased! Her updates were so helpful, and her attention to detail impressive. Cannot recommend enough- if you’re nervous about taking a break from your fur-babies, book Lehna; they’ll be in good hands. ☺️
I have booked Sandra multiple times for drop-in visits for my kitties. She has always been reliable, punctual, and attentive to my fur babies’ needs and my instructions, making sure that despite my absence they receive the care and routines that they’re accustomed to. I highly recommend her!
We requested zoeyanne at the last minute, less than a day before our trip and she responded promptly confirming the stay. She was great! Very punctual and took good care of the cat. I was worried Petra (my cat) would hide the whole time because she’s shy but she was so friendly and interested in Zoeyanne! The photos added were really cute and nice too. Would absolutely hire her again.
Stephen and Erica watched our cat during the Christmas holidays (and agreed to do so on relatively short notice!) and we came home to a happy cat who had received some new toys for Christmas. It was great getting to see pictures of her while we were away and know that there was someone around to make sure that she was eating and getting some attention. Would definitely boom with Stephen and Erica again!

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.

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 .
