“Bella was so caring with our cats, very communicative and compassionate! We loved seeing the pictures and updates, it’s obvious she’s incredibly passionate about animal care. We will absolutely be booking her again soon!”

“We loved Katie! She housesat our 2 cats for us while we were away for 2 weeks. We had just recently added a second cat to the family and were nervous leaving them alone for so long, so we were very happy Katie’s schedule was flexible for house sitting. Our cats warmed up to Katie very quickly, even our timid scared boy cat who doesn’t usually like strangers only took a couple days to be comfortable with her. Our girl cat loved her so much she was constantly cuddling with her. Katie sent daily pictures, videos, and updates which we really appreciated being away for so long. She also took great care of our home and cleaned everything for us before we got back, which we didn’t even ask or expect her to do! We would definitely recommend Katie and will be using her again!”

“Laia was a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of our shy kitty who warmed up to her right away. She was even able to pick her up and brush her which other cat sitters haven’t been able to do. Great communication too. We will definitely book again!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals all my life! Taking good care of dogs and cats has become a second nature to me. Since I was 5 years old and I’ve been surrounded by animals and deeply care for all of them. I have prior experience working in pet grooming and helped friends and family look after their pets as well. I can do pet care any time of day, the end of august my availability will change because I start school as well as a part time job. I check up on pets often and make sure everything is ok with their health and mood. I love spending time with pets so being around them is very easy for me.

“Miranda was WONDERFUL with our little floof. Very attentive, communicative, sent updates along with pics, and made him very comfortable and loved through the stay. Even their own cat was a great companion for him since his older sister had to be put down a few months ago. Will 100% rebook!”

“Jeana is the best cat 🐈 sitter we have ever had! She is great 👍 with my three skittish three-year-old cats. She kept in touch by texts and phone. She was able to accommodate us for an extra day when our schedule changed suddenly. Thank you Jeana.”

I have Monday off and can swing by for visits throughout the day. This can include walks, potty breaks, or just playtime with your pet! I have a fenced in yard where my doggy runs around and is able to spend time outside whenever it isn’t too hot out!

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you’re away. I’m active and enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping higher-energy dogs engaged, but I’m just as comfortable providing a calm environment for older or lower-energy dogs. I’m also comfortable reinforcing basic commands, routines, and good behavior with younger dogs. My goal is to follow the routine you’ve established and make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me. I currently work week days from about 830 to 330 and off weekends. I often work from home if needed. I am very flexible with coordinating care. I have a fenced yard that is great for your pets to play. My house is very open and spacious and very pet friendly. I am very flexible depending on your pets needs.
About: My older brother used to breed South African Mastiff’s and train different breeds. I’ve been blessed to learn the difference between dog breeds, how they communicate to each other and their owners, and understand what needs their personalities require. I also help my sister with her husky and they are a bit much lol, so that’s a bonus in experience! It is my goal to deliver attentive and dependable care to every paw! My schedule as of right now is quite flexible since i’m working part time as an Esthetician. I decided to join rover to bring more fulfillment into my weekly routines. I have a big field next to a playground in my townhouse complex where the neighborhood dogs hang out. I also have fenced back yard & covered outdoor patio if being around other dogs aren’t an option. I like to keep anything at reach away from pets , while giving them space to roam freely, unless requested otherwise. As for cats I like to keep a closer eye on because they are quite curious so while giving them their space, I like to check in on them often.

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs ever since I was born and currently own 2 cats. I started pet sitting when I was 12 and have experience with both drop-in visits and boarding. I also work part time at an animal shelter. I currently work from home, so I would love to spend time with your pets during breaks or in the evenings!

About: My experience comes from years of being around and caring for pets belonging to family and close friends. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing so I definitely understand how important it is for your fur babies to feel loved, safe, and cared for while their favorite people are away. Pets are family too and I’ll treat yours with that same level of care and attention. I also have close family and friends connected to the military, so I understand how unpredictable and demanding military life can be. Long workdays and changing schedules can make having reliable pet care especially important. I want to be someone you can count on when life gets busy or plans change. Whether you’re fur baby needs a walk, playtime, feeding, companionship, or simply someone trustworthy to check in on them, I’m happy to help. I’m great at following instructions and paying attention to the little things that make each pet unique. My goal is to give every pet plenty of attention, affection, and quality care while making your time away easier and giving you complete peace of mind. 🐾 I recently moved to the area and have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. My main daily commitment is making sure my two kids get on and off the school bus safely and on time, which means I have flexibility throughout the day to provide walks, drop ins, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet as an individual and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their space clean and comfortable, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh food and water, and companionship. I’ll also provide regular updates so you know how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. For walks and drop ins, I focus on making each visit fun, safe, and engaging while keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I understand that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to make the experience comfortable for both you and your fur babies and give you peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for.
“Allison is fantastic! She provided so many photos and updates for every visit. My kitties were well taken care of. Recommend using Allison for in house visits for any pet. She is so sweet and genuinely cares for animals.”

“Sara was awesome! She was able to accept a short notice sitting and connected with Silver (my cat) immediately. We appreciated her communication and photos each time and even let us know when she was running late or needed to shift a visit time. I'm sure Silver would absolutely love to have you watch him again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Vernon
Claudia was amazing! This was our first time using Rover or any type of pet sitting service. At first I was slightly nervous as I knew our cats are somewhat shy and I didn’t exactly know what to expect. Claudia eased all my concerns! She was incredibly communicative leading up to her visits and our kitties loved her! Highly highly recommend and we won’t hesitate to book her again!

If you need a catsitter, make sure it's Jackie! She came highly recommended by another repeat client whom I know personally. I get anxious leaving my "velcro kitty" alone, but from the moment I met Jackie I knew my girl was in good hands. Jackie sent thoughtful updates with the sweetest photos. She went above and beyond in caring for my cat, and we're incredibly grateful! But don't just take my word, trust my cat's review. She crawled into Jackie's lap during her very first visit and parked there for each subsequent visit!

Lenny is great! She is my go to sitter for cats/dogs (5 total) every time we are out of town. This time it was just 2 cats as we took dogs with us but she did everything according to instructions and even went above and beyond when asked to water plants outside. Always, can rely on her for my animals to be well taken care off!

Alyssa is just the absolute best. It is such a wonderful peace of mind when we’re out of town to know our two fur babies are in such wonderful hands. Alyssa has watched our tabbies every time we have been out of town and I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Rebecca was fantastic! The best cat sitter we have had. She sent photos and videos and clearly spent time playing with our cats and it was clear they came to trust her and look forward to her visitors. I also really appreciated coming home to a clean litter box and all the food bowls and cat food trash taken out. Will definitely use Rebecca 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.

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 .
