“Allison was absolutely wonderful. She went out of her way to make sure my cats were well cared for and even offered to do little extra things like getting the mail and watering some house plants. I highly recommend Allison and will most definitely be asking her to cat sit again in the future.”
“Carrie recently helped take care of my cat while we were out of town for the weekend. She did a great job! Carrie gave us updates and sent pictures, which I greatly appreciated. She is warm, friendly, and loves animals!”

About: I have owned dogs all my life and currently have one . I treat my dog like family. I take her for car rides with me and we play ball outside. She is totally spoiled with treats and lots of luv and kisses. I’m currently retired so I have lots of time to spend with your fur babies. The first thing I do is to make sure they go potty outside and make sure they r fed. I will make sure that they are fed and have plenty of water to drink. If they like to exercise I can take them for a walk or play with them at your house
About: While growing up, I fed, watered, played with, and walked our family friends. I even picked up poop! As an adult, I've done it all, from cleaning major messes to administering meds. I love canines and felines of all varieties, from the smallest to the largest! I am available to care for your pet(s) throughout the business day. Although I am also doing some volunteer work, I keep a regular schedule. I will care for your pets according to your express instructions. They will be treated as my own with as much love and concern as I can provide.
“Brandon was great! I knew he was going to be great fit since the meet and greet. Our dog Benji loves him. Milo will take a bit of time but I'm sure over the next few visits Brandon will win him over too.”

“Joel is awesome. Super nice guy, good communicator, easy to work with & has taken great care of our pup. Gives solid updates at the end of each visit. He goes above and beyond while dropping in at your house. For example - our dog got into our garbage before one visit & Joel cleaned up all the trash off the floor. We appreciate the care he takes in looking after our pup as well as our home. Definitely recommend!”

I have a fairly open and flexible schedule which allows for multiple check ins throughout the day or sometimes full day and / or night availability. I would never care for your pets in a manner not approved by you as you know your pets best. However you prefer their needs are met so that they are happy and healthy.
About: I absolutely love animals and caring for them! I grew up with 2 dogs and now have 2 cats a dog and an African Grey bird. I’ve been dog sitting for years. I take pride in giving pups the best vacation of their little lives🥰 During the summer I have a very open schedule which makes it easy for me to dog sit or dog walk anytime of the day. I do go on vacation a couple times but usually not for very long, I also have a part-time job at the moment which helps for a flexible schedule to help people and their pets! I am very attentive and loving towards my pets and others I have had in my care. I love being outside and playing with dogs, as well as being responsible for their needs and what the pet owner expects of me.
“Hayley was amazing with Buddy, my high energy 4 month old pup! Buddy is my first puppy and I feel comfortable having Hayley look after him. She is very caring, organized, trustworthy and responsible. She genuinely cares about Buddy’s well-being and getting him the proper exercise he needs. I am so happy that I hired Hayley to do daily drop-ins. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for proper care for their fur baby.”


About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life rangeing in all sizes. Of my all children, four are my dogs, so I know how important it is to make sure our fury family members feel safe and well cared for while we are away. As a school bus driver i have a flexible midday schedule, so I can accommodate your dog's needs and maintain its normal daily schedule as much as possible. To help alleviate any potential stress or concerns, I provide daily updates and photos of your dog. I've found this is the most reassuring way for you to know your dog is happy and safe. I prefer to meet with all parties prior to scheduled visits, so we can go over your dog's daily routine and to get to know each other, which will help make the transition of me being there, and you being away, easier for them. I m currently working as a bus driver for a local scool, so i have most of my midday open and late afternoons open for care. I provide in home care for your pets to help relieve or minimize the stress of having your pets in a new and unfamiliar environment.

About: I have grown up surrounded by pets and am the biggest animal lover! I have 2 cats and 2 dogs that I care for daily. It's my biggest priority to make sure my pets needs are exceeded and they are well loved and happy, and I would love to do the same for yours! I am currently working part time at a resort, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and provide the help you need! I can care for your pets out whichever way is most comfortable to you. Im happy to learn your routines and make your pets feel at peace when you are gone. i'm here to help whichever way works best for you!
About: Hi! I’m Audrey, and I’m a veterinary professional who truly loves caring for animals. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, and other companion animals in a veterinary setting, which has given me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, and I don’t take that trust lightly. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away, whether we’re going for a walk, hanging out during a drop-in visit, or just keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m comfortable giving medications if needed, keeping an eye out for any changes in behavior or health, and sending regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of patience, attention, and care. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet and help make your time away as stress-free as possible! I currently work full-time at a busy emergency veterinary hospital, so my schedule can vary. Weekday visits are generally the easiest for me to accommodate, while weekends can be a little more limited due to my ER shifts. That said, I’m always happy to discuss your needs and see if we can find a schedule that works for both of us. Feel free to reach out! I do my best to be as flexible as possible! Safety is always my first priority. As a Fear Free Certified veterinary professional, I use calm, gentle handling techniques to help pets feel secure and minimize stress. I’m experienced at recognizing changes in behavior, following care instructions closely, and adapting my approach to each pet’s individual needs so they can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: growing up with a family dog, i’ve always looked forward to our long walks. since i've moved to care for my grandma & i can’t have a pet at my current home, i’m looking to be the dedicated adventure buddy your pup deserves! i’m an avid walker who cleans up after your pet & loves exploring local parks and trails, and i’m just as comfortable handling a brisk, high-energy trek as i am a slow, 'sniff-heavy' stroll for seniors or four legged friends who love getting distracted! HOT WEATHER: for dog-friendly clients, i am able to provide outings to low stress trips to uncrowded, pet-friendly stores/facilities for stimulation and enrichment (including a potty break outside before and after, of course!) i am also happy to walk earlier/later in the day to avoid the heat as well! i also enjoy keeping pets company in home, whether its playing with toys, using lick mats, or just spending some time together! because i work evening and overnight shifts, i have guaranteed availability every morning and midday for your dog’s routine. whether you need a recurring daily walker or a same-day visit because you’re running late, i'm local and ready to jump in! my current job is closing in a few months, so i’ll be even more available for your schedule soon :) in public, i use a short-leash grip, stay hyper-aware of our surroundings without distractions like phones/technology of any kind (aside from photos, of course!), and avoid unknown dogs to keep your pup protected. i pride myself on being a trustworthy, punctual communicator, providing frequent photo updates so you’re always in the loop. i am very confident in my ability to kennel/leash pets & i consider myself well-versed in administering medication. i am keen when reading animal stress signals, ensuring your pet feels safe and understood under my care! as of early may, i am taking dog training certification courses to better my understanding and confidence in dog training :)
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was so kind and patient with them and took awesome care of them while we were out of town. Our dogs tend to be a little nervous but she was so patient and kind with them and they warmed up so quick to her! She is so reliable and it was such a relief to know that my pups were in good hands. Thank you Jenna!! You’re the best!”

About: I have had pets my whole life and lost my baby a bit ago. I know how they are family and deserve all the love. My dog was older and had a lot of health issues so I am familiar with different medication that may be needed. I’m currently in grad school for nurse anesthesia and study most days from home. I have a pretty open schedule except Thursday and Friday morning-afternoon but can be available early in the am or that evening. Happy to answer any questions. Anytime except Thursday and Friday morning and afternoons. I have online lectures so I can have open availability during the rest of the week and weekends. I would prefer to watch your loved one at your home or do day sitting/walks. My current dog is very timid and a rescue and is scared of literally everything so I don’t want to stress him out
About: I can sit and board during any holiday! I am new to the site, so that is why I do not have any reviews. I try to respond in less than thirty minutes. In the evening, I usually respond within a few minutes. I walk on a daily basis personally and am used to taking dogs on walks at least a few times a day. I have worked with all different breeds and do my research on breed specifications before taking care of any animal. I have helped taken care of animals that have to receive oral and injections daily. I have taken care of all ages of animals from babies to seniors. I have owned dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and rabbits. I currently do not own any animals, so that I can focus on your pets. I do usually send updates/pictures during the time your pet is with me, so that you know how they are doing I work as a nurse full time Monday through Friday. I started work usually no earlier than 745 am and am done no later than 5 pm. I have an hour long lunch break. I board on weekends so that I can be with your animal 24/7. I can dog sit throughout the week and dogs will receive a morning and evening walk as well as a lot of love and affection. I can do dog walking in the evening and if you live in the Fairlawn/Montrose area, I can do drop in visits between 12 pm-1 pm. I keep my availability up to date on this calendar as well. I live in a two bedroom apartment, but I live near a dog park I can take them to and can take them out every hour or two during the weekend if the board with me. I would take them on at least one walk minimum whether staying at my apartment or taking care of them at yours. The walks can vary from an half an hour to an hour or more depending on the dog and how your dog is feeling. I always ask their feeding schedule and an dietary restrictions. At my home, I have intellectual toys as well as just typical toys. If allowed, dogs and cats are more than welcome to sleep in bed with me. I allow animals on my furniture and have locks on cabinets to ensure they cannot get anything to harm them. I keep treats and food at my apartment. For walks, I have a hands free leash that goes around waist, so that way there is not a chance that the leash slips out of my hands.
About: I have taken care of animals, my entire life. These include not only cats and dogs, but fish, and hamsters. This was for family, friends, and coworkers. I do work Monday through Friday however, I do have flexibility with my schedule, especially in the morning and late afternoon afternoons, and early evening evenings. My weekends tend to be free. And whenever you instruct me to do, I will do with extra care and tenderness. This includes any type of medication's and special needs. Thank you.

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.

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.
