“Jamie was incredible! She took care of our cat Socks for a few days while we were out of town and met with us beforehand so we would feel comfortable with her. Socks loved having a friend visit, and Jamie was professional, sweet, and communicative through the whole process! She even traversed a snow storm to take care of our girl! We’ll definitely be asking for her to come back in the future :)”

About: I began providing pet care at 13 years old, starting with friends and family before expanding through social media to serve a wide range of clients. My experience includes dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, medication administration, enrichment, and personalized care. What began as a passion has grown into a trusted, professional pet care service. For more about my background, visit me at Jet Set Pet Care. Animal care is intentionally built into my daily and weekly routine to ensure consistency and reliability for every client. I structure my schedule around morning, midday, and evening care windows to accommodate feeding times, walks, litter maintenance, and enrichment visits. I limit bookings to maintain quality and punctuality, allowing me to provide attentive, unrushed care. Weekly planning includes route organization, client communication, and follow-ups to ensure each pet’s needs are met. Pet care is not a side task for me — it is a priority and a structured part of my routine. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and the specific service requested. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal schedule to reduce stress — including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, medication if needed, enrichment, and plenty of affection. I closely monitor behavior, appetite, and overall well-being and provide detailed updates with photos.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oakdale
We couldn’t be happier with the care Destiny provided for our cat while we were away! From the very beginning, she was prompt, professional, and extraordinarily responsive to all of our messages. What we appreciated most were her thoughtful daily updates. She sent detailed check-ins along with wonderful photos that gave us complete peace of mind knowing our cat was not only well-cared for, but truly happy and comfortable. Destiny went above and beyond to treat our cat like her own. We will absolutely be booking with Destiny again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring cat sitter!
Amanda was wonderful with my cat! She happily agreed to help even though our request was last minute, and she was so easygoing about it. She took great care of Sara, played with her, sang songs to her, and even sent lovely pictures. She was understanding and accommodating throughout, and thanks to her we didn't have to stress about our cat at all. It made our whole experience so peaceful. Highly recommend! 🐱❤️
Ana Clara is a competent cat sitter. She was very careful to check in with me by text and ask any questions she had. She also came twice to get oriented to Snowy's care before her scheduled session, since I had delayed it by two months. Additionally, she tended to Snowy very well, keeping him off the deck when rainy, letting him back on when nicer, and kept good notes and photos. Everything was in order when I returned.
Amelia did such a great job! 10/10 would recommend her for all your pet sitting needs. I booked her with not much notice for an entire week, and she was extremely accommodating! My girls loved her and were clearly well looked after, her photos and updates were great, and she left my place spotless. I will absolutely be asking her to come back again! :)
It was great to have Sydney care for our cat while we were out of town! She was professional and prompt with her communication, forward thinking, and showed true care for our cat. We enjoyed seeing the daily pictures she sent. Sydney was even willing to bring in a package that arrived at our house while we were out of town! We will definitely look to have Sydney care for our cat again the next time we go out of town!
Raquel went above and beyond with our kitty! She was thoughtful, helpful, and dependable while we were away . It gave us peace of mind on our trip to have someone trusted checking in on our pet. We all looked forward to seeing the Rover cards for each visit and she took some extremely cute photos of our cat that we saved. I would highly recommend Raquel!

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 .
