“She went above and beyond to help out with not only my animals but my garden too! Her communication was excellent and she was kind and genuine. So grateful I found a great sitter!”
“Kayla was great! She came in last minute to look after my two very shy cats. Her daily updates and photos helped me relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in good hands. She was able to convince my timid male to come out of his hiding spot for pets and treats. She even changed the battery in my fire alarm. It was so nice after an exhausting day of travel to come home to a clean house, a functioning fire alarm and two happy cats. I would definitely hire Kayla again”
“Whitney did a wonderful job caring for my cat while I was away. My kitty is very shy and always hides under the bed when anyone visits. I mentioned that she loves to be brushed, and over the four visits Whitney managed to gradually get her to the edge of the bed for petting, and then all the way out for a good brushing! I really enjoyed receiving videos each time, so I knew when Whitney was at my home and that my cat was receiving good care. Everything was in perfect order when I returned home. I would definitely use Whitney again.”
“Lynne was wonderful - one of our cats is skiddish around people, but Lynne sent pictures of them playing, laying down, eating. It put my mind at rest knowing someone was having fun with them while we were gone. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you Lynne for your time! Our kitties say thank you as well!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and my friends and families. I have walked others energetic puppies and my own. I love trying to teach them new tricks and reward good behavior.

“Robin was absolutely amazing! She was respectful of our home, incredibly responsive, and always checked in and out on time. She showered our cat with love—playing with him, snuggling him, and sending us daily photo updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. When he didn’t come home on time one day, she even returned later to make sure he was safe—truly going above and beyond. We were able to fully enjoy our holiday knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Robin!”

“Karolina was a FANTASTIC cat sitter!!! We had an urgent request for a sitter and she truly saved the day!! She was incredibly responsive to any requests we had and was extra loving to our babies. She not only showered them with affection, she cleaned up their messes, and made sure they were well fed while she stayed in our home. Karolina also left our home as neat as she found it. I highly recommend booking Karolina and we will most certainly use her services again! Moreover, our cats were happy and relaxed when we got home which is their way of giving her a five paw review!! ☺️”

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.

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 .
