About: I have had both cats and dogs all of my life. I have raised 2 litters of kittens, I have raised 2 puppies including fostering one. I have spent the last 2 years caring for my senior cat who needed extensive medication administration and monitoring daily; she also needed a special diet and many vet and urgent care visits. I have owned a variety of animals from a Snow Bengal, house cats, cocker spaniel, golden retriever, German shepherd, terrier mix, ferrets, and bunnies. I raised my cocker spaniel from a puppy and trained him. I do not currently have any animals. I live in a very quiet manor home with a walking path in my backyard. I absolutely love animals, and I hope to live yours while you are away. I currently work full time, M-F 8-4. I am close to home and can come home during my lunch break if needed. I spend my time home when I have a pet, ensuring it is receiving the attention it needs while you are away. I love to spend time outside hiking, biking, and hammocking. I live in a manor home and have a second floor balcony which is entirely surrounded by chicken wire. If you have a cat who likes to be outside, they can safely enjoy the sun there-only with your approval. I can walk animals, take them outside for the bathroom as needed. I am happy to take your dog to the dog park if you would like. My place has a secure entry, with 2 doors.
“Elizabeth was a fantastic sitter for our 19 year old cat. She was happy and content when we arrived home. She is usually anxiety ridden even when left for several hours. Elizabeth is a cat whisperer. Thank you so very much. Think Sienna misses her.”
“Our cats love Christy! She has taken care of them several times now - she is always conscientious, caring, a good communicator, and a true cat lover. We feel much more at ease knowing she is watching our cats. Highly recommend!”
“My dog, Sunshine and my cat, CutiePie enjoy being with Ping. They are happy to be with her. She is a delight for me as well. She brings a lightness of being into our apartment. She was able to get Sunshine’s boots on for her nice long, extremely cold January walk. My dog and cat greet her at the door. And I can have some alone time out of the apartment to read or knit.”
“Tina is an amazing pet sitter! She took care of my two cats, who are so sweet but also high maintenance and she did so well! They both had accidents and she cleaned them, plus set up treats and puzzles for them which I appreciated so much. I am most definitely reaching out anytime I need a sitter, thank you Tina!”
“Amanda is the first sitter I have ever hired for my rescue pup. I could not be happier with our experience. My dog loved Amanda from the first moment of the meet-and-greet. The check-ins were well documented, and I could tell by the pictures that my pup was having a lovely time. When the dog was startled by a loud noise, Amanda comforted her until she calmed down. I am confident that Amanda would know what to do in any situation while caring for a pet. I trust her, and I plan to hire her again.”
“My boy and girl kitties love Mexi! My girl is a bit shy but came right up to her. Loved the pictures she took too I could tell they were in good hands . They were not too mad at me when I came back, which means they did not feel abandoned.”

“Brianna was so wonderful with our Pip! We appreciated that she was willing to come over and meet pippa before we left, and sent us plenty of photos. She stayed for a nice long visit and gave us peace of mind when we were away!”
“Thankful we found Anna to care for our two kitties while we were gone. She came twice a day to keep them company and make sure they got fed. The visit updates and pics kept me comforted that they were in good hands.”
“Megan is amazing with our dog. She is very communicative about everything and leaves detailed Rover cards for us plus photos. She has been so helpful in every regard when it comes to walking him regularly as well as checking in on him for a visit. I feel so reassured he is in good hands! Highly recommend as long as you don't book up her schedule too much because we need her!”
“Pamela was fantastic with our two cats! She was always timely in her drop-ins, gave comprehensive updates, and kept our cats happy and entertained. We highly recommend her for anyone else looking for a sitter!”
“Dexter and Savannah both give Amanda 4 out of 4 paws! Amanda had great communication, took photos everyday, and I came home to cats in the best they've ever been in after a long trip. HIGHLY recommend! She's a great sitter”
“This was our first time using Rover and it couldn’t have been better. Tara was great! I really appreciated the daily photos and updates for both of our cats. I could tell they were well-cared for when we arrived home.”
“Ned came for a meet and greet so I could introduce LucyLulu and show him how I feed her, what commands we use and how to get her in and out of the house and kennel. LucyLulu liked Ned and he reported she was a good girl both visits. He lives very close and it is a good match.”
“April was my first Rover feeder and I couldn’t have been happier. She went the extra mile (brought in packages, sent pictures, gave pets) and communicated amazingly. I will be remembering her services for next time.”
“We were so glad Katherine could come back to care for our sweet kitty. She is a great support when we are out of town! Always communicative and thorough with updates. Definitely recommend!”
“Katelyn was awesome. She took care of Sherlock while I was away, and he looked better than when I left. Katelyn was very punctual always showing up when she said she would. I wholeheartedly refer her to anyone who has need of their loved furry one being taken care of while they are gone. Thanks Katelyn!”
“What a blessing to find Juli! She is so knowledgeable about dogs and has so much love for them. My Valentine has a special bond with her. I recommend her without any hesitation. Thanks Juli!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mounds View
Kirsten is just awesome! We knew right when we met her it was going to be a perfect fit for our pets. She was so pleasant to talk to and very professional. Our cats loved her and she was in constant communication with us while we were on vacation. We never worried once. We would highly recommend her for any and all pets!!!
Did a great job with my cats, even Ziggy who is a bit more standoffish and gets upset when I am gone for too long. Also she did way more than I expected her to (even washing their bowls which I expected to have to clean when I got back)! Really fantastic job!
I have booked with Elizabeth twice now, and highly recommend her to take care of your babies. She is the first Rover sitter I have used and is an absolute delight! Her updates are thorough and make me feel so much more comfortable while I’m away. You can see she genuinely loves animals and I can trust that both my cat and home are in good hands.
This was my second booking with Kylie. The first was to walk my dog as I recovered from surgery. That experience was excellent. This booking was to drop in twice a day and feed my cats while I was vacationing out of town. This experience also was excellent. Kylie is reliable, flexible, friendly and as evidenced by my giving her access to the house - trustworthy.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
