About: I'm super passionate about animals and pet care, and I am grateful for every opportunity to hang out with them. I love to spend time getting to know pets, and I am great at adapting to their quirks and needs! As a recent graduate, I'm looking to expand my pet care experience and help people. I'm available all week, and devote most of my time to animals - with my experience including hundreds of hours of pet sitting and dog walking, my role as a wildlife care assistant at PAWS, and experience as a kennel technician at a veterinary clinic! When caring for pets at my house or a client's, I never leave for long periods, and I'm great at staying on top of medication requirements. I am also able to provide pick-up and drop-off services to make things easier for owners.
“We were so grateful to have Kory take care of our kitties again. Kory is always so sweet and kind, and we love receiving photos and thoughtful updates when we are out of town.”
“Saint *saved the day* by accepting my day-of request to stop in two times for my three dogs. I had never hired anyone to watch my dogs so I was nervous, but Saint let me call and text out all my requests and concerns and he handled it professionally + with care! I will definitely be hiring him again!”
About: Hi pet parents! 🙂I have been working in the animal welfare and veterinary industry for 8+ years. The bulk of my experience is in animal sheltering, but I’ve also worked in wildlife rehabilitation, doggy daycare, and in a veterinary clinic. I have experience with a variety of medical care, kitten and puppy care, pet first aid, and managing pet emergencies. I’ve also managed several cases of lost foster pets through my most recent professional role and returned the pets to safety. I have a lot of patience for pets experiencing stress, and enjoy utilizing my skill set to try to comfort them. Additionally, I have experience working with dogs and cats with behavioral challenges, and am happy to welcome those pets into my care on a case-by-case basis. I do not, however, utilize aversive tools for behavior modification and I’m not comfortable using them on client’s pets. This includes prong/ pinch collars, shock/bark collars, squirt bottles, and any other training tool that modifies behavior based off of punishment. I’ll be happy to share more about what I prefer using if you’re interested! I am currently taking time off from a full-time role so I’m available tonight be very present with your pet(s)! I do have 2 cats of my own that I will need to drop in and care for but that shouldn’t take a significant amount of time out of my day. I have a lot of applicable experience and training that allows me to take excellent care of your pets! Additionally, I have a natural safety mindset geared at protecting both my human and my pet clients. I’ve managed countless medical emergencies, lost pets, and safely broken up conflict in between pets as a part of my profession. I’m a very responsible and detail-oriented person overall.
“My cats obviously loved Gargi! My semi-feral, shy Jasper hides from EVERYone, but not from Gargi! She may be the only other person who can pet him. It’s so important to have someone the cats like and trust. I hope Gargi will be available every time I travel.”
“Noelle is such a wonderful, loving sitter! First time booking with rover and I am so thankful she booked with me! My lil pup loves her and has helped him with keeping with potty training, short walks outside, and even train him! I would definitely rebook! I actually booked for the entire month and I am glad that my pup has someone like her since I can’y be with him all the time. Thanks Noelle!”
“Anna is extraordinary! Our pup is just learning about the crate and how to be alone and Anna has been incredible at working with he and supporting me through this tricky time. Singing her praises!”
“Holly always takes such great care of my Bruce. She goes above and beyond including things like taking the initiative to brush him, even though I’ve only requested a drop-in. She always makes sure he has plenty of water and his favorite toys available. We both love her ❤️”
“Tyler was awesome while taking care of our cat Sparty!! He was super communicative and we loved getting our daily photo updates from him! We will definitely be booking with Tyler again in the future!”
“Easy choice, would book again. Glad we picked Miranda to watch our shy little house panther. He warmed up to her better than most people and she kept an eye on everything we needed. It was great to have peace of mind while traveling.”
“Bevan was so wonderful with piggy! She was very communicative, sent us photos and videos. We would definitely definitely recommend her to anybody, and hope to use her in the future!”
About: I just love cats and dogs. I would love to come and meet your babies and give them the care they need when you are away. I am currently working full time. I am able to care for pets in the afternoons and on weekends. I would love to come walk your dog! I am ready to walk your dog in any weather! Rain or shine, I’ll be there. I am able to walk most any sized dog, as well as 2-3 dogs at once.
“Hattie has been such a wonderful dog sitter! She arrives promptly on time and is an expert at medication management with a fickle dog. I know my dogs are in good hands with Hattie.”
“Venessa was absolutely wonderful with Pepper! From the moment we met her, she was kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure Pepper was comfortable and well taken care of while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions carefully, kept everything clean, and gave us so much peace of mind throughout the weekend. It’s clear she has a real love for animals, and Pepper was in great hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat, and we truly appreciated the communication and reliability the entire time. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate Rover sitter!”
“Our sweet girl is so happy having Kali come over (instead of heading to the cattery). We get updates on each stay and pictures of our kitty strutting for the camera. It couldn’t be easier or more reassuring. Thank you Kali, you make our vacations so much easier and our cat couldn’t be happpier.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mountlake Terrace
I just recently adopted Latte, so was unsure how she'd react to me being gone and to a pet sitter. Kali was great with her and they became fast friends with Kali giving her lots of pets. I received updates and cute pictures, making me feel relaxed knowing Latte was in good hands.
Highest recommendations for Kyra! This was our first time using Rover and everything was great. Communication was superb, she took great care of our kitty and small stuff around the house, and the daily updates we so appreciated! We were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing our cat was in good hands!
Melissa was wonderful! She was punctual, communicative, and took great care of everything while we were away. Even though our cat is incredibly shy and decided to stay hidden the entire time, Melissa was so patient, kind, and thorough with each visit. She kept us updated, gave us peace of mind, and left everything clean and tidy. What really meant the most was that we were away attending a funeral, and Melissa left us a thoughtful condolence card. It was such a kind and unexpected gesture that truly showed how caring she is. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would absolutely book Melissa again. Highly recommend!

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 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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
