About: I’ve been taking care of the family pets for as long as I can remember! Now I’m the dedicated friend and family pet sitter. I am currently in between jobs at the moment so I would love to dedicate as much time as possible taking care of your precious pets In clients home I offer endless love and patience I love going on walks and cuddling with pets if they allow haha. I have experience administering medication as well.
About: In the past, my Aunt had 2 dogs that I absolutely loved taking care of. I would willingly bathe them, play with them, walk them, and even pick up their poo! I also really enjoyed practicing some training techniques that I was able to help her implement. Getting to know your dog and you are my top priority-your interactions can tell me everything I need to know! I am looking for a part time job that I love, and that is flexible, as an extra source of income so that I can buy my first car! I find that caring for a pet in a familiar environment is extremely beneficial to your pets-it causes them less stress, and gives you peace of mind! It gives me the ability to keep them following their normal routines within their normal space, and still making sure that they are happy and safe.
About: Hi there! My name is Ellie, and I’m a passionate animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have pups of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member — and I treat every pet I meet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in to check on meals and snuggles, or full-on overnight care, I’ve got you covered. I’m reliable, patient, and fully committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the care they deserve! I currently work full-time during the day, but pet care is truly a passion of mine and a fulfilling part of my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins and walks in the early mornings before work and in the evenings after I get home. In some cases, I’m also able to swing by during my lunch break for a quick visit, depending on location and timing. I also offer overnight stays, which allows me to spend quality, uninterrupted time with your pet — perfect for dogs who need extra comfort or company while you’re away. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I’m dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve when I’m with them! When your pet is in my care, their well-being is my top priority. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, routines, and personalities — and I take the time to get to know them so I can provide care that makes them feel safe, seen, and loved. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, with patience, affection, and respect. I’m mindful, responsible, and always keep safety at the forefront — whether that’s making sure harnesses are secure, sticking to feeding instructions, or giving them their favorite toy at just the right moment. I believe animals know when someone truly cares for them — and I make it my mission to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at ease while you’re away.
About: I have had both cats and dogs and love giving them attention and the time they need outside. Being able to give them the energy release they need is my job and the extra cuddles and treats are just a bonus! I currently am a college student and have long breaks where I love to spend time walking and sitting dogs whenever I can. I am free on most holidays and during the summer since I live so close to home. I keep a close eye on pets when I dog sit and love to spend all my time with them whether it's on the couch getting extra pets or going outside or the backyard to play.

“We just met Lacy a week or so ago and have found her to be extremely comfortable and responsible with my 18 year old diabetic cat. Lacy did not know how to do an injection but was more than willing to come over at my convenience to learn and bond with my frail timid cat, Winnie. We both felt very comfortable and secure leaving our “baby” in her hands. We receive daily reports that left is at ease! I love the photos of my Winnie and would highly recommend Lacy for anyone’s fur babies and now she can do medical injections so that’s a huge plus! Will be using her again and introducing her next to our two German shepherds! Thanks Lacy!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I have experience walking dogs, dog-sitting, and house-sitting for pets, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety and happiness! I’m currently in an accelerated nursing program, so I have a structured but flexible schedule. I have two in-person classes for 2 hours each on Mondays and Wednesdays, and clinicals on Thursdays. I’m generally available after 3 PM on Thursdays, and I’m fully available Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routine and instructions closely. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone with both your pet and your home, so I am respectful and thoughtful of their wishes. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, while keeping their environment clean and secure. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind while they’re away!

About: I had dogs for the first 24 years of my life, and believe no time spent with animals is wasted. I've cat sit and roomed with cats in the past and now love them just as much. I've worked with various animals throughout my life, from working at a horseback riding camp, to a pet store, to an animal sanctuary. my weekends are Sunday-Monday. I work as an archivist at a museum 9-5 during the week, but I'm still happy to take evening/nighttime bookings on work days. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals I've been a pet owner most of my life, and an animal lover for all of it. I've worked with animals across multiple jobs in my life. All animals have unique personalities, so adaptation and individualized care is very important to me. My roommates and I do not have any pets currently. We keep a clean and cozy spacious apartment near Elizabeth Park.

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.

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.
