About: Hands on experience caring for animals I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with a wide variety of animals from large to small. I am retired and I do Uber on the side. I have very flexible hours and I’m available from dog walking, spending time with your animals to staying with them in your home to house sitting. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal is different, and I will take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs that they may have. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime, quiet, companionship, medication or extra patience, I provide loving a attentive care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pets is to feel completely comfortable, knowing they’re in experienced, caring and trustworthy hands.
“Erica is amazing! Prompt, trustworthy, compassionate and caring! She treats our senior like one of her own! We have and will continue to use her moving forward! She’s the best 🩷”
“This was my first time using a dog sitter, and I was definitely a little nervous. One of my boys can be particularly cautious around strangers, but Toby warmed up to Angelo much faster than I expected. That immediately put my mind at ease. Throughout the entire stay, Angelo was communicative, reliable, and thoughtful. He sent regular updates, pictures, and videos, and it was obvious my boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Seeing them relaxed and enjoying themselves made all the difference. I’m so grateful for the care Angelo provided and the peace of mind he gave me while I was away. I have definitely found the right person for my fur kids, and I won’t hesitate to book with him again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Sharyn was a pleasure to work with. She was punctual, reliable, and thoughtful in her care and communication. She did more than was required to ensure my pets had the best experience possible. I will, without hesitation, reach out to her for my future pet-sitting needs.”
“I honestly can’t say enough about how amazing Lillian is with our girl Riddy. After booking, Riddy had an injury which made her need more specialized care and Lillian took on the challenge without hesitation. We are so lucky to have her!”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! I had a last minute request and needed help getting my dog home from daycare. She was so responsive and amazing to work with. She took great care of my pup getting her all settled in and included plenty of photos! Made my busy day so much smoother and lighter. Will definitely work with her again”
“Dogs absolutely adored her, and it was heartwarming to see their gratitude for the care she provided. I will undoubtedly be booking her services again! She's incredibly helpful and engaged with pictures”
“Julia is the best house sitter and we highly recommend. She was prompt and understood that we were outside, enjoying ourselves away from the constant need of technology. The cats were happy 😁”
“Ashley is awesome! We had something last minute pop up, Ashley was very accommodating with her schedule and was able to fit us in! She’s a great communicator and took great care of our boy. She went above and beyond to care for him and ease our minds with a new routine! We have an older dog and while he has some challenges, Ashley was understanding and patient with both our pup and our long list of special care instructions. We will 10000% be using Ashley again!!”
“Akemi is the best!! She always takes the best pics of Theo, is super sweet to him, and gives me detailed info about her visits! I know Theo also loves that she's willing to run outside with him when it isn't too hot out.”
“Christina's meet up, constant communication, photos and great personality made sure we enjoyed our vacation knowing our dog and cats were in excellent caring hands. Will be our go to sitter from now on!!”
“Kaia took great care of my cat and home while I was away on business. She followed all my instructions, was always on time, and took great photos! Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life I truly love working with them and neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in with their pups and kittens over the years! I am a Freelance cinematographer and a Part time cashier so I currently have plenty of time to play with and walk your pups, But I’m usually the most available in the mornings and afternoons throughout the whole week. Mon, Tue & Thur are my most available days if you’re looking for services later then 3pm. I have two dog parks by my house but If you would like me to bring them to a different location, please inform me otherwise.
“Makenzy is so sweet and flexible! She did amazing with our one dog who is very shy and a huge ball of anxiety. We felt at ease knowing that are shy dog has been warming up to Makenzy rather quickly, it goes to show her love for animals! :)”
“We can’t recommend Cristina enough! She’s watched our Aussie, Logan, a few times now and has gone above and beyond every single time. From long walks and runs to sending us constant photo updates, she truly treats him like her own. Logan is a high-energy working breed, and Cristina knows exactly how to keep him happy and mentally stimulated — we can always tell how content he is when we get back home. She’s also incredibly responsible with our home, always leaving it spotless and even taking small thoughtful steps like bringing in our garbage cans. Her communication is amazing, she checks in often and keeps us updated with fun photos and videos (Logan’s chaotic, happy expressions are now a running joke between us 😆). We feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care, and Logan absolutely adores her and her Aussie, Lorde. If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, and genuinely great with dogs, Cristina is the one.”

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
