About: I have three years of experience dog sitting and walking, along with personal experience caring for both cats and dogs of my own. I have also successfully trained my youngest cat to do tricks such as sit, stand, and “say hi.” Through my pet care experience, I’ve worked with animals of different ages, sizes, and needs, including senior dogs who required extra patience, careful feeding routines, and slower-paced walks. I am also comfortable handling larger dogs, as well as dogs who may need extra support on walks due to special needs, mobility challenges, anxiety, or age-related limitations. I always make sure to adjust my care to each pet’s comfort level, personality, and routine so they feel safe, supported, and well cared for. I am available Monday through Friday! Specifically, Wednesdays I am available from 7am to 12pm and Friday from 2:30pm to 5:30pm. Every other day my availability is 7am through 6pm. Feel free to reach out if you need a sitter or walker in a pinch and I will always try my best to fit you in. 30-Minute Dog Sitting Drop-In: I stop by to make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and cared for with fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Here, is when I’d administer any oral medication (or extra aid based on requests) for your dogs. Every visit is tailored to each dog’s routine and personality making it an experience they won’t forget! 30-Minute Dog Walk: During our walk, I make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, sniffing time, and positive engagement while following their preferred pace and routine. I also provide fresh water if needed, reinforce good leash manners, and ensure they return home happy, safe, and content. 30-Minute Cat Sitting Drop-In: I provide your cat with fresh food and water, a tidy litter area, and the right mix of play, treats, or quiet companionship. From social butterflies to independent observers, I tailor each visit to their unique style and can administer oral medications or inhalers when needed.

“Megan communicates very well and does what she says she is going to do. The app is not user friendly for me but Megan is working out the bugs on her end. Rocco is cared for very well and is a changed man. I can see him less depressed since Megan came into his life.”
“Elizabeth performed brilliantly -- she completed all requests without fail and provided plenty of photographic and written responses. She was timely in arranging service initially. And she managed the visits and house key drop-off well. We appreciated her willingness to commit to providing care with short notice. Thanks!”
“Kasey was great! Would leave my girls anytime with her. She kept in contact with us. I definitely will use her services in the future. I felt confident leaving them with her before I left, we communicated quite a bit before our trip. My dogs were happy to see us when we got home, but I can tell they were happy and well cared for when I was not here....Amy Rickard”

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
