“Abbi did a really great job with our cats. We had never used a pet sitter before and were really nervous about it, but she kept us informed and was available for off time contacts. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 25 years and have experience with both cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and treat every home and pet with respect. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pets are doing. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can work around your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I’m available on weekends and can often accommodate last-minute requests. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I also have a fenced-in yard for safe, supervised outdoor time if needed for dogs. During each visit, I make sure food and water are fresh, litter boxes or potty breaks are handled, and your pet gets attention based on their personality. I follow all care instructions closely, keep your home secure, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.

“Emily is the best. She is so communicative and patient! My cat is shy, but emily is now on the coveted list of people who have gotten to see her sweet and social side, which says a lot about how wonderful she is! She catered to my old lady cat’s needs with no issues. Emily is amazing!”

About: I have recent hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments in professional settings. I also have a lifetime of experience as a dog and cat owner and lover! As a recent doggy daycare employee, I've safely managed groups of dogs in daycare, supervised structured play, monitored body language to prevent conflicts, and provided individualized care based on each dog's needs and personality. I also work as a dog handler for a professional goose management company, where I handle border collies in outdoor environments while maintaining focus, safety, and reliable leash skills around wildlife, distractions, and changing conditions. This work has strengthened my confidence handling energetic working dogs in public spaces. My experience includes: - Supervising group play and monitoring canine body language - Individual walks and exercise - Feeding, fresh water, and medication support with instructions - Cleaning kennels and maintaining a safe, sanitary environment - Crate rotations and rest breaks - Reinforcing good manners with positive interactions - Caring for puppies, senior dogs, and high-energy breeds I love every dog like it is my own and am ready to take care of your loved one when needed! My schedule is generally very flexible! I do have a few shorter recurring commitments during the weekdays, but I have availability before and after them, as well as on evenings and weekends. If you're looking for care on a specific day or time, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to work with you to find something that fits both of our schedules whenever possible. I always try to keep pets on the routine they're most comfortable with. Whether I'm in your home or caring for your pet during a walk or drop-in visit, I'll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special needs or preferences. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you're away. My professional experience in dog daycare has taught me to pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and individual personalities. Some dogs want to play nonstop, while others just want a calm companion and a good walk. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection while also keeping safety my top priority. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: We adopted my mom’s dog back in 2020, so since then I have had experience living with dogs. I then adopted my dog, Smokey, in 2024. I potty and leash trained Smokey, and also taught him numerous tricks. Then in January, I adopted Canelo, and I was able to leash and potty train him (he is older so he was sort of potty trained), along with teaching him how to use steps! I attend college one day a week, on wednesdays, so I have plenty of time! I would love to care for your pet with all of the free time I have. Whether it’s checking in or walking your dog, I’m able to do it all in the comfort of your home. At your home, I will assure to respect everything and watch over your pet with care! I am able to crate your pet at my home as well, if needed.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for both cats and dogs for friends and family.I also have experience volunteering at a local Cat Cafe. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and affection while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I always do my best to follow their normal routines and make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and happy while in my care! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m happy to coordinate visits around my classes and make time for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability so you know exactly when your pet will be cared for. I understand how much trust it takes to leave both your pet and your home in someone else’s care. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any household rules. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether they want lots of attention and playtime or prefer a little more space. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to give my own.

“5/5 Stars — 10/10 Highly Recommended! I cannot recommend Ava enough! She saved the day by stepping in on just two days' notice to take care of my cat for a full week straight. She did two 30min-1hr long drop-in visits every single day and was absolutely wonderful. She is super nice, incredibly reliable, and kept me updated the entire time with excellent communication. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands. I will absolutely be booking her again!”

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.

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.
