About: My 7+ years of experience began with a dedicated focus on providing compassionate care for the pets of my family and friends. This has given me an intimate understanding of the trust required to be a great pet sitter. Provided regular, energetic walks to ensure physical and mental stimulation. Organized park visits for safe socialization and off-leash play in designated areas, Offered comprehensive overnight care, maintaining pets' routines and providing a sense of comfort while their owners were away. As a stay-at-home mom with an 8-month-old, my flexible schedule allows me to dedicate my time and attention to your pet's needs. I am able to provide a constant, watchful presence, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable throughout the day. I have pets of my own, so I understand firsthand the importance of finding a caregiver who will treat your furry family member with the same love and care you do. Please know that having my child with me will not hinder my ability to provide your pet with all the care and attention they need. My primary focus is on your pet. My day is structured around their feeding schedule, walk times, and playtime. My baby is in a carrier or stroller during walks, allowing me to fully focus on your pet's safety and well-being. During feeding and playtime, I use a playpen or a secure area to ensure my baby is safe and my hands are free to give your pet my undivided attention. To ensure both your pet's and my child's safety, I can ensure they have separate spaces. My child will be in a secure playpen, stroller, or carrier in a designated area of the home while your pet and I are playing, feeding, or training.

I am a huge animal lover and was raised to love and care for animals. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, donkeys, chickens, and highland cows. I know that going away when you have pets adds a bit of a challenge to the equation. I am happy to lighten your load. I can provide care and companionship for your beloved pet while you are away so you can have a relaxed, worry-free time. I am trust-worthy and reliable, and I can assure you that your pet(s) will be in good hands. I have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate you and your animals schedule. I can also be available last minute and drop everything in case of emergency. I follow your directions. I will not do anything you are uncomfortable with. I prefer to live on the safe and cautious side of things and not to do anything to put animals or self in harms way. I can provide daily updates, pictures, texts or emails - whatever you want.

“We had a great experience with Stephanie and will absolutely book with her again. Communication was excellent, we received regular updates, and it was clear our pets were well cared for while we were away. We really appreciate the care provided and look forward to booking again in the future.”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and making sure they get the best care. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, and small pets. I’m comfortable with any animal! I’m currently a full time nanny so I’m only available in the evenings after about 5:30/6.On fridays I’m available all day. I have 5 cats and 2 guinea pigs that I take care of in my home. They all get fed daily and cleaned up after.
About: Reliable and detailed oriented! I will get to know their personal needs , personality, and what works for them! Your pets second favorite human lol I am a body piercer. I work 10 minutes away from my home. I have a set time to take my puppy out as he is still going through potty training My apartment is pretty open for the fur babies to room around and I have a small fur baby of my own that can play with! There is a big area of grass around my complex where they can go potty and play and a dog park right up the street.
About: I’ve had pets as far as I can remember. I’ve always been the one to take them outside for walks or potty breaks. Always fed them. I have volunteered at a dog rescue for 3 years training and handling dogs of all sizes. I have a dog of my own. My beautiful husky. Whom I spend as much time as I can with him. But am willing to show that love and attention to your pet as well. I prefer to keep the pet in the comfort of their own home. Being somewhere new and not familiar can stress pets out. I’d rather they be comfortable in their own home.
“Candace did a great job taking care of my little Dolly! You can tell right away how much she loves dogs and she was great about popping in to check on her, walk her and feed her, per the work request. She sent photos and updates from each visit and we know she got great care. I would highly recommend Candace for your pet-sitting needs and I know I will hire her again in the future.”
“Ashley is amazing. Reliable, responsive, flexible, trustworthy and incredibly kind. She did drop in visits for us for a week while we were away and sent us updates, pictures and videos and made us feel so comfortable knowing our girls were being cared for. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish during middle school and high school as well as during breaks during college. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their animals from as little as a weekend to as much as 2 weeks at a time. I am currently a student at Appalachian State University and have plenty of time in the morning, afternoon, and evening time frames to take care of animals. I do not currently have a pet-friendly residence, but I am capable of walking, feeding, and playing with animals at their homes and within their neighborhoods.

Luca was the best sitter we’ve hired! The cats were well taken care of and it looked like they got a lot of snuggles. We came back to a clean house and happy kitties! The communication was prompt and all of my extensive directions were followed to a T! If you’re looking for a sitter who truly cares hire Luca! 😊

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.
