“Madison was extremely patient with my nervous kitty. Hunting through the house to find her, get her fed, and making sure she got her medication. Thanks Madison!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life and adopted my own 11 years ago. I've cared for both cats and dogs of family members and friends. During Covid we adopted a rescue puppy and I was the primary responsibility for her training and care. I work from home most days of the week, giving me plenty of time to spend with your pet! My schedule is most flexible Friday-Monday making it perfect for a long weekend. As a dog owner myself, your pets safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I have crate-trained dogs and am comfortable adjusting my care approach to the pet.
“I’m always concerned to leave my pets because nobody is going to love them like I love them. Beth’s care went so far beyond my expectations. The care she gave far exceeded our expectations. She didn’t just give care, she gave them love. I really appreciated the pictures and summaries of each visit. It was a great comfort knowing that my pets were in such loving hands.”
About: I’ve had pets of my own since I was 10 and have trained dogs, cats, and fish. My fiance and I currently have two handsome fluffy cats, a leopard gecko, and a successful freshwater aquascape with tetras, a honey gourami, and neocaridina shrimp. I have had dogs for most of my life until about a year ago, when mine passed away. Now, I’m looking to spend some time with others’ furry friends. I work for a children’s museum, so my workday typically starts later and ends by 6. I have Sundays off consistently and a flexible schedule based on events and outreach during the school year, so I’m free to stop by and spend time with your pets as needed. I only do drop-in visits at present, but I would love to set up a time to meet your pets and get introduced to their care routine before I start to care for them. I am happy to do aquatic maintenance and care for exotic pets in your home as well, including reptiles, rodents, and insects. I’ve worked in professional husbandry for fish and invertebrates, so I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to care for all of your pets, not just cats and dogs, though I adore them too. Let me know what you’re looking for and I’m happy to accommodate.
“Ana went above and beyond watching our two boys. She gave them so much love and attention, and she did a bette thin cleaning the litter boxes then even we do. Highly recommend. She’s attentive, organized and we will be using her again!”
About: I have had pets of my own for over 30 years. I love all animals and think they all have different and special personalities. Currently, I have one dogs (Pembroke-Welsch Corgi) and one cat (a Maine Coon). I am available for weekday walks, evening care, and petsitting on weekends or longer if scheduled ahead of time. I can either come to your pet, take them to a park, or bring them to my home for socializing with my pets. Whatever you like! I have a fully-fenced yard and one friendly dog that can socialize with your pup(s) if interested. Otherwise, we can make accommodations for crating if that is requested.
“Jerra did a great job with our elderly cat. We’re always nervous to leave him with someone new, but she took good care of him, including administering medications. He was happy and relaxed when we got home!”
“Left us detailed rover cards with photos every day, went above and beyond. Came home to a clean orderly house and most importantly, cats that seemed very happy and relaxed as if we hadn’t been gone almost a week. Thank you so much, Madisyn!”
About: I grew up with cats and started taking care of neighbor's cats while they were on vacation from a young age. I have also taken care of dogs! I've enjoyed petsitting for the past few years for multiple families through Trusted Housesitters. I've taken care of pets that need to take pills or be given insulin shots. I love getting to know new pets! My current work is on a somewhat irregular schedule, but I'm usually free mornings, early evenings, and often afternoons! I would have plenty of time to check in on and play with your pet, and am happy to stay overnight in a housesit to keep your pet company. My work is less frequent during the winter, so I have even more time to spend with your pet! At my house, I don't currently have any pets of my own, but my roommates have some sweet and friendly dogs! I mostly plan on using this app for housesits and check-ins, so I will be able to minimize interruptions to your pet's normal environment. I always make sure that I'll be able to provide the care your pets need before I accept a job.
“Erika is great. She's watched our cats twice now and we plan to book with her again next time we need a sitter. Our cats usually take time to warm up to new people but she's completely won them over. She is a great communicator and clearly understands cats and their needs. We know our cats are in good hands with her.”
About: I have worked with both puppies and senior dogs, i have 2 poochon puppies that are 1 year old. I am currently going to school to be a vet technician and I volunteer at the animal shelter in the cat and dog rooms. I have experience handling all different types and sizes of dogs. Im a college student and currently working part-time in the late afternoons. So I have plenty of time to walk, play and give potty breaks! I have a fenced yard suitable for small to medium dogs. I have a large room that I can close off that has tile flooring and access to the backyard and also have pens if dogs need to be separated.
About: We have had dogs most of our lives - many different breeds. We currently have a four year old high-energy German Shorthaired Pointer. I love to care for dogs, and love to have a four legged friend that loves to go on walks with me. We also have three indoor cats. Cats are grreat companions. I love curling up on the couch with my cats. We are looking for overnight Rover positions in the West Valley area. I will only take a Rover position for a non smoking home. I telework and love to have animals close by throughout the day. I love to break up my mornings with an outside walk followed by an afternoon evening walk. My husband and I will do overnight sits together. Keeping pets safe is of the utmost importance. Pets are stressed when you are away - that is why it is nice to be able to provide care in your pet’s home and keep them in their comfortable surroundings. We love on our pets throughout the day and keep close eyes on our own pets at home and will do the same for your pets as well.
About: My golden is my boss, and I love it. I have had dogs my whole life and am finally in a position where I can help other people with their pups. Walking, playing…I can’t wait to meet all your puppers and doggos! I currently work part time so have pretty open availability for walks and playing. I could potentially board but it would have to be a good fit with my pup. I take my dog Simon on 3 walks a day as I live in an apartment. Keeps me active and him happy. I will do whatever the client needs I order to keep their pets as happy as mine.
About: I have over 10 years of professional animal care and veterinary experience, where I’ve tended to pets with all variations of personality and maintenance. While working as a lead at an animal boarding facility I gained many skills to support animals while stressed and away from their families. Every pet is treated like my own, and I earn their trust by respecting boundaries and accommodating every animal’s personal needs. I am an excellent nail trimmer/bather for cats and dogs who allow me to do so, and am able to pill most pets if needed. My life is centered around pet care, so the rest of my schedule shapes to that routine. The animals in my care come first before other engagements or plans. All items that could cause sensitivities in pets are kept clear of their reach, windows and doors stay closed to prevent walkabouts, animals remain leashed and under direct observation when outside. When several pets are together they are never left without supervision. I administer flea/tick treatment, bathe, trim nails, clean ears, and brush teeth for my personal pets on a schedule. Prescriptions are administered accurately, and individual food needs are met, such as allergies and prescription diets.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who treats every animal like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’m patient, attentive, and always tuned into their needs. I’m also a busy mom, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your loved ones in someone else’s care. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you have peace of mind. I’d love the chance to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a mom, I’m already used to being active, organized, and attentive, so adding walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout my day feels seamless. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs to ensure they feel secure and cared for. I’m very attentive during walks and visits, always aware of surroundings and potential risks. You can trust me to treat your home and your pet with respect, care, and responsibility.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Olympia
I would unhesitatingly recommend Desiree to anyone looking for a caregiver for a cat or dog. She provided exceptional care for my cat, Zuzu, including taking the time to engage in daily playtime with her. Most importantly, upon my return from vacation Zuzu was as healthy and happy as could be. She barely missed me.
My kitties are my family and Heather treated them as much. There was a storm while I was states away and she was only tasked with coming by once a day but she made an extra trip to make sure my cats were safe, not scared and to check on my house. She did this freely and gave me an update. I dont think I worried once the whole week I was away! She plaid and staid longer than she needed too. I received detailed messages after each visit with lots of photos. She was very respectful of my home and she is irreplaceable. Heather is more than a sitter she is our fur-friend! Highly recommend her!
Jerrie's is a true kind-hearted animal lover and my cat Cocoas new friend! She took care of Cocoa when I had to go to a memorial on short notice and although I asked just for basic food and litter duties she went above & beyond to take the time to be sootging and friendly to Cocoa. The pictures she took of cocoa coming out of hiding are so cute and I needed some more photos.
Helena provides excellent service!! I couldn't be happier with her dedication, detailed attention and communication while I'm away. Over the last few years she has taken wonderful care of my adult cats. Now that they have passed, I have 2 new very young kittens so I relied completely on her for the special attention my kittens needed. I give her the highest recommendation.

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. 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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
