“She was wonderful. She was very loving and patient with our cats. Anita also handled our diabetic cat, who was very upset about us being gone, and helped our cat to stay consistent with her medicine and get through our days away as best as possible. Would highly recommend!”
“Ann was absolutely wonderful with my puppy! Since she’s still so young, she requires a little extra care, attention, and patience, and Ann went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the love and attention Ann gave her, and I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for her services.”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 4. I have taken care of anything from senior yorkies to training service puppies. I am comfortable with any size, age, or gender, or breed. Just truly an animal lover at the core! I am currently a full-time worker at Abbott. I am gone 8AM-4PM M-F but am more than open any other time during the week and all weekend! I live in multi-floored apartment with green area for all kinds of dogs. I have more than enough room for roaming and crating. Dogs are allowed on my furniture but can be prevented from doing so if needed.
“I can’t say enough good things about Rachel! She was very kind and communicative, and she took the very best care of my little guy! I will 100% be booking with her again!”
About: I have raised puppies and kittens, along with taking care of older pets. I am a responsible, trustworthy, caring adult who loves animals. I will take excellent care of your pet and make sure they are happy until you return home. I retired from teaching and now want to take care of others’ pets. My schedule is very flexible, including days and weekends. I am happy to tailor my pet sitting to whatever your pet needs. I am very comfortable around dogs & cats because I have owned pets my whole life. I am patient, caring & conscientious & will love your dog like my own. I will also make sure they get plenty of exercise, play time, & potty breaks.
“Regan saved the day for us by taking care of our two kitties while we were away for a month. They loved her immediately and looked forward to every visit. Cant wait to have her take care of our girls again.”
“Lauren took care of our two cats for a four day period. She was caring, inquisitive and flexible. We appreciated her communication, pictures and keeping us dialed in. She provided exceptional care and we highly recommend her.”
About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of tons of furry (and scaly) friends over the years. It warms my heart to provide all that I can for any pet. I have my own babies at home, as well as taking care of friends’ and families’ as well. I would be happy to offer that same care to any pet. Pets are incredibly special and important to me. I take great pride in committing deeply to assuring their safety and care while under my supervision.
About: I have lived with pets my whole life so I am very comfortable caring for your pets as I would my own! I can promise you peace of mind knowing your pets will be well taken care of! I have two cats at home currently so I am very used to attending to their many needs. I have a very flexible healthcare job and I am looking for some extra happy moments to add to my day ◡̈ I know having others in your home can feel very invasive however I promise to care for your pets while always respecting your households privacy!
“Highly recommend Autumn! She truly cares deeply about animals. I had peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands— she even brought him a Christmas treat and toy which he loved!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was 5! After college I adopted my own dog who passed away at 15. I’ve pet sit for various friends and family members and have experience with dogs 6 pounds to 80! I currently teach yoga, am in graduate school, and freelancing. My schedule is rather flexible which allows me to add this into my daily schedule. At this time, I’m not inviting pets into my home. If I have regular clients whose pets I get to know, I will be open to in the future. Since I have a cat, I want to ensure the comfortability of both pets.
“Kaylyn was so helpful! My shy kitty loved her! And she was taken good care of! When I got home, she was clean and happy. This is the first time I travel for over a week, and I was so nervous about it. I was so lucky to find Kaylyn. She made it so much easier!”
About: I was known for rescuing stray kittens in my hometown neighborhood since I could walk & owned my first dog at 12 years old (a shetland sheepdog I fell in love with). Since then, I have owned, raised, loved and been around a multitude of animals educating myself on different breeds. I then became a manager at a pet store for 2 years which included learning a variety of pet care including some vetinarian work and grooming. I promise to be alert to your pets' needs and giving to their wants. My job is to provide whenever life prevents you from being able to do so. I am currently available most Mondays-Fridays before 6:45am and after 5:45pm, and usually all day Saturday and Sundays. I am currently working full time as well as being a single mother so these things can affect my schedule and availability so the more advanced notice I have the better I can arrange. I will gladly feed & water your fur baby, let them out to potty, do long walks, play with them, give medication as needed, and more. 🐾 This is part-time work for me on top of an already full-time job. Since I'm unable to currently have any pets of my own, this is a great side gig to get my "fix". You let me know the environment your pet needs and I'll build the trust to help them feel safe. I want to make you and your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“Kyndal was very kind and actually met both my babies which normally they would hide. The only thing she didn’t do was clean out their food bowls from previous feed. Otherwise, I was very comfortable in knowing my kitties were taken care of.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for years—both my own and others’—and I truly treat each animal like family. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and TLC. Whether it’s following a specific feeding schedule, administering medication, or giving your fur baby all the snuggles and attention they deserve, I’ve got it covered. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and make time for. I have a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to be flexible with pet drop-ins, walks, and in-home sitting. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and early evening visits during the week, and have extended availability on weekends. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I take time to get to know each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can follow their normal schedule as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, potty breaks, walks, or just cozy cuddle time. I respect your home as if it were my own—keeping things clean, secure, and leaving everything just as I found it. I’m mindful about doors, gates, and any instructions you provide to keep your pet safe. I also communicate regularly with updates and photos so you feel fully informed and confident while you’re away. Trust is everything, and I work hard to earn it from both you and your pets.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Albany
This is our second time booking Keisha to care for our cat, Lyra. Her communication is excellent, and we love receiving her daily updates and pictures. They always reassure us that Lyra is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We feel completely at ease when we're away, knowing Keisha is looking after her. I highly recommend Keisha to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pet like family.
We had a wonderful experience with Addison! She took excellent care of our cats, followed all of our instructions carefully, and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. What really stood out was how she went above and beyond—she even helped us troubleshoot an issue with our heating/AC unit while we were gone. That meant so much to us. We came home to happy, well-cared-for kitties and felt confident they were in great hands the entire time. We would absolutely book with her again!
Christi has watched our senior cat 3 times now! She is fantastic. We get great updates and pictures. Most importantly when we return we know he has been well cared for because of how he interacts with us. He has quality play time and stimulation. If you are thinking about booking Christi do it! You won't regret it!

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.

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 .
