About: I have been taking care of and pet sitting animals, whether it be my own, my family’s or friends basically my whole life. More recently, I have been involved with The Seeing Eye since 2018, as a puppy sitter as well as a volunteer Puppy Raiser, and I have been bathing and grooming dogs professionally since early 2021, working with little puppies for their first grooms all the way up to senior dogs who need a little more love and patience during the grooming process. I have several years of experience working with puppies on basic obedience, and potty training. In addition, I have a 6 year old german shepherd who I have raised and trained myself who I love with my whole heart. I currently work 5 days a week as a groomer, however my schedule can be flexible. I am available most nights after 6 pm and all day Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I do not pet sit in my own home, as I live in a small apartment. However, I would be more than happy to stay over a clients home if needed!
“V was fantastic. She came over to meet our two dogs before our scheduled visit and both dogs immediately loved her. It’s clear she’s a dog lover! We will absolutely be reaching out again in the future”
“Xiomara is amazing! Did a really great job of taking care of my two cats, and played with them. My cats have no issues interacting with her, and immediately show interest to her at first intro meeting. She kept house clean and tidy after the visit. Would definitely recommend her and book her again for the future!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting dogs and cats for years, and both my husband and I grew up with pets. We truly love being around animals, it genuinely makes us happy. We care for pets together, which means extra attention, calm energy, and lots of love in our home. I also have guinea pigs now, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. We treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine. My husband cares for pets with me, and he works from home while I work nearby as a nanny, so one of us is always home. This makes it easy for us to keep dogs on their normal schedule, give them attention throughout the day, and make sure they’re never left alone for long. I take safety and comfort seriously, and my husband and I work together to create a calm, tidy environment where pets can relax and feel secure. We follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, feeding times, walks, sleep habits, and any special instructions, and we always pay attention to how a pet is feeling so we can adjust as needed. We make sure doors are secured, no unsafe items are accessible, and pets are supervised throughout their stay. With my background in nannying, our experience pet sitting, and both of us being naturally observant and responsible, we’re very careful with every detail. Our goal is for every pet to feel safe, cared for, and genuinely loved while they’re with us.
“Sam took great care of my 2 senior dogs. She came exactly as we arranged and was very communicative. Would ask Sam to take care of my dogs again without hesitation. Thanks Sam!”
“Carlie met my dog Finley ahead of the time of her visit. She instantly bonded with my dog and provided feedback on her first visit with her. She walked her played within her in our home with Finleys favorite toys. I will definitely ask her to come able and highly recommend Carlie.”
“Anthony is very punctual, polite and handles my dog with confidence and experience which makes me feel comfortable. My dog is large and can be a challenge but it does not intimidate Anthony. I would definitely recommend him.”
“Katherine was great at watching our kitties when we were away. We have a cat that needs multiple pills and she was a champ at getting them to him. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Kimberly has been extremely reliable and took great care of Penny, Kimberly also made multiple visits at home to ensure my cat was doing okay! Thankyou so much and also thanks a lot for accepting last minute request it was really helpful and lot of relief.”
About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal
“Katie took such great care of our dog while we were on vacation! We were nervous about him staying home alone for the week but she was extremely attentive, sent us tons of pictures and updates and made sure our pup was cared for. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Wow!! What a loving, responsible and caring gal. Caleigh is the best cat sitter I've ever have. I plan on becoming a repeat customer. Every visit she takes videos and around 15 pictures which makes me feel so good. Absolutely, hands down, the BEST. Thank you so much Caleigh.”
“Alissa was awesome! I needed someone very last minute and she was very responsive and jumped on the request right away. She spent time with my dog and made us all feel comfortable.”
“Chloe is a rare find. She is incredibly thorough and buttoned up- beyond organized with a binder of notes and questions upon meeting you and your pet. She’s exceptionally responsive to check in requests and always goes above and beyond. I came home last night to my mail brought in and she even brought our recycle bin up from the curb. I highly recommend her! So does Oliver ;)”
“Ella took great care of our two cats every morning for two weeks. we received pictures everyday, Ella is super nice, and did a fantastic job taking care of and entertaining our two cats. we were really happy to have found Ella on Rover.”

Sam was an amazing sitter who took wonderful care of our cats, Kanga and Smokey. She sent us daily updates and photos, which made us feel completely reassured while we were away. When our return was unexpectedly delayed, she graciously extended her stay and continued caring for them. Sam is dependable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Last-minute trip and poor planning on our part, but Victoria came through for us. She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of our kitties while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
Katie checked in on my cat once a day and sent messages and Rover cards a the end of each check in. She cleaned bowls and litter each day and stayed with my kitty feeding her in small increments for a half hour each day I was away. She kept my place clean and played music for my cat to keep her as calm as she could. My kitty was nervous and scared but Katie managed to make her feel cozy by the then of each visit. Next time I’m away I will hope to book Katie again and I highly recommend her!
Sheila took wonderful care of our cats for a little over two weeks, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She is incredibly meticulous, genuinely loves animals, and went above and beyond what was required to make sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She also kept an eye on our home and alerted us to a water leak in time, which we truly appreciated. We felt completely at ease knowing both our cats and our home were in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommended.
We were beyond pleased with the service (and so was our kitty). Stephanie came through for us at the last minute on top of that as well. Everything was kept neat and clean, and although our cat is not the most social kitty, she did not seem at all upset by the presence of a new person in our home and everything stayed right on schedule for her. I could not recommend Stephanie enough and we will definitely use her again in the future!

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.
