About: I've always been a cat lover since childhood and absolutely adore cats! I currently have two friendly female Siamese cats who are 4½ years old. I have experience caring for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats, including giving medication when needed. I grew up with both cats and dogs, so I've been around animals my entire life. As a stay at home mom, I have a flexible schedule and can provide loving, reliable care for your furry family member in your home or mine. I'll make sure your kitty feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I enjoy playing with cats using laser pointers and toys, giving them plenty of pets and snuggles, and following their regular routine. I can't wait to meet you and your bundle of joy! I'm a stay at home mom, so I have a very flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. My son is in school during the weekdays, and the only regular commitment I have is taking him to therapy on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:00–6:00 PM EST. Even on those days, I'm usually available with advance notice. I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible and will do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I have two friendly, well socialized cats, but I always prioritize safe introductions and I will separate pets if needed to ensure everyone is comfortable.
“Lacy did a great job checking on my cat, Chloe. I never worried the entire time I was gone, and knew Chloe wasn't getting lonely because she was being checked on multiple times a week. I will definitely be booking Lacy again.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently have both dogs and cats of my own, so I understand how different every pet’s personality and routine can be. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and can help with feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter boxes, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very attentive and patient, and I treat other people’s pets the same way I’d want someone to treat my own. I’m also comfortable with multi-pet households and pets that may need a little extra time to warm up to someone new. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to accommodate weekday and weekend pet care, including walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I’m able to spend plenty of time with pets rather than rushing through visits, and I’m happy to work around their normal routines. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and your home. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and make sure pets stay in a safe, comfortable environment while maintaining the routines they’re used to. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, medications, and anything else specific to your pet. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Castle
Lacy was nothing but unfailingly kind, diligent, attentive, and reliable while taking wonderful care of our cat during our week-long trip out of state. Being able to rely on someone who consistently showed up for check-ins and made sure our cat had both food AND treats while we were away was such a comfort that we had zero worries about our cat being safe and well taken care of. We had to book with essentially no notice due to our original plans falling through day-of, so we will always be grateful for such kindness! Thank you so much for making sure our cat wasn't lonely and hungry, Lacy!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a New Castle stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
