“We have nothing but the absolute best things to say about Halie! She is an absolute animal lover and one of the kindest and hardest working individuals. She is compassionate and very thoughtful! We are so very lucky to have her watching our 4 cat babies while we were on vacation. This is our 2nd time Halie has helped us out and we couldn’t be more appreciative for her communication, honesty, compassion, and kindness! If you need a sitter you have found her!!! Book her! Seriously!!!!”

“Jane treats our cats as if they were her own. She kept the littler box taken care of, made sure they were fed, but most importantly played and loved them during her visits. We know when we leave they're in excellent hands.”

About: growing up with a family dog, i’ve always looked forward to our long walks! since i've moved to care for my grandma and can’t have a pet at my current home, i’m looking to be the dedicated adventure buddy your pup deserves! i’m an avid walker who cleans up after your pet and loves exploring local parks and trails. i’m just as comfortable handling a brisk, high energy trek as i am a slow, 'sniff heavy' stroll for seniors or 4 legged friends who love getting distracted! all sizes welcome: i absolutely love dogs of all sizes, from tiny pups to extra large breeds. if you have a giant dog, you are in safe hands here! being a taller, sturdily built person gives me a natural physical advantage and a grounded presence :) i don't get easily knocked off balance or intimidated by heavy pullers, meaning your big dogs get the steady, confident, and secure handling they need! hot weather: for dog-friendly clients, i am able to provide low-stress trips to uncrowded, pet-friendly stores/facilities for stimulation and enrichment (including a potty break outside before and after, of course!). i am also happy to walk earlier/later in the day to avoid the heat as well! i also enjoy keeping pets company in-home, whether it's playing with toys, using lick mats, or just spending some time together! my growing services & training: i am now certified in dog training, and offer a train & walk bundle if you're interested!! :) my ultimate goal is to become a true one-stop shop for your dogs, so i am also currently working toward learning professional grooming to add to my services soon! because i work evening and overnight shifts, i have guaranteed availability every morning and midday for your dog’s routine. whether you need a recurring daily walker or a same-day visit because you’re running late, i'm local and ready to jump in! my current job is closing in a few months, so i’ll be even more available for your schedule soon :) in public, i use a short-leash grip, stay hyper-aware of our surroundings without distractions like phones/technology of any kind (aside from photos, of course!), and avoid unknown dogs to keep your pup protected. i pride myself on being a trustworthy, punctual communicator, providing frequent photo updates so you’re always in the loop. i am very confident in my ability to kennel/leash pets & i consider myself well-versed in administering medication. i am keen when reading animal stress signals, ensuring your pet feels safe and understood under my care! as of august ive completed my initial dog training certification and continue learning to better my understanding and confidence in dog training :)

About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel

About: I’ve always grown up around animals, from being raised on a farm surrounded by cows to caring for pets of my own. I’m currently the proud owner of two sweet Shih Tzu mixes, Memo and Santi, along with a dwarf bunny named Melody. I also have experience caring for reptiles and amphibians, and I’m completely comfortable handling feeding routines , even the bugs! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always care for your animals with the same love, attention, and patience that I give my own. Here’s a cleaned-up, more professional version of your routine bio: I am a recent college graduate currently with a flexible schedule while I transition into my career as an industrial designer. During my time as a full-time student, I developed strong time management and responsibility skills, and I am now using this period to focus on gaining experience and building my professional path. Because I am currently in the job search process, I have open availability and am able to accommodate a variety of scheduling needs, including weekdays and weekends. For my two little dogs, Santi and Memo, they spend a lot of time cuddling with me. Memo is very curious and will literally follow me everywhere I go, while Santi loves coming along with me for car rides. They both have a lot of fun playing outside, and during potty breaks they like to wander and play around the yard. I will admit my dogs are pretty spoiled ,Santi especially loves when I buy her cute dresses and she gets so excited for a good game of dress-up. My little bunny, Melody, is on what I like to call a “rainbow diet,” meaning she gets a variety of nutritious vegetables. She also really enjoys car rides and loves when I give her a small banana treat. I keep a very consistent and timely routine when it comes to her cage maintenance to make sure she stays clean, comfortable, and happy.

About: I grew up working at a dog kennel and have always owned dogs. Some of my best friends are trained professionals and I've learned a lot from them. I can do walks, playtimes and certain medications. I can do over nights just not at my house for the time being. I only work Saturday and Sunday but am Still available early Sundays and later after 9 as well as late (after 12am) on Saturday. My days are pretty open during normal pet care hours and outside of them. Dogs love me, and I understand dog body language. My dog was over 100 lbs and I can handle him just fine. I love dog play times and don't mind running with them to get energy out. I just love dogs and making money. Message me with any questions or concerns.

“You will never book another sitter again after meeting Bryan! He loves and understands cats so truly and provides the best, most thoughtful updates. My cat is my baby and my best friend and I have never felt more secure with her in someone’s care!! He took care of absolutely everything and ensured he knew all about her quirks and personality and play habits and veterinary information just in case. She seems so happy and well taken care of! I assure you, your cat will love Bryan.”

“We booked Aliyah short notice to housesit and cat sit during a week-long trip. She was flexible with us even when our plans changed due to a canceled flight. She took her duties seriously, sending daily updates and photos. I was shocked to learn that our standoff-ish cat was laying in her lap and sleeping in the guest bed with her by the end of the week! It was a relief to know our house was safe and our animals had a friend to spend time with. And she went above and beyond, washing bed linens and cleaning the bathroom up behind herself. I would recommend Aliyah to anyone!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 11 and still care for them currently. I have also grown up with my friends dogs, as well as my grandparents dogs. My best friend has two dogs over 100 pounds that I am with often! I have also volunteered at Portage County Animal Protective League back in middle school, where my aunt works. I have also cat sitted for my aunt numerous times! I have nothing but passion and empathy for all animals. :) I am currently a student at Kent State University, and I work part time in retail. I only have classes for a few hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This schedule will make it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine! I will treat your home with care as if it were my own, as well as your fur babies. To me, animals are family and deserve the best.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and taken care of them by myself as well as helping friends and family care for theirs when they were away. My schedule is pretty open but changes day to day. I’m happy to try to work around your schedule! If I happen to be booked, I hope you keep me in mind next time! I am unable to have pets in my apartment unfortunately because my cat does not like other animals. I am only able to care for pets inside your home or outside.

Sharon is terrific. My kitty has separation issues and she is very caring and patient. She keeps in contact with me and adjusts to his eating problems with good instincts. He always enjoys when she comes to play with him. And she sends several pictures so that I know he is getting alonng well. I'm comfortable going away knowing she is caring for my guy.

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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
