“Faith is AMAZING with animals and has a passion for their care and wellbeing- She took FANTASTIC care of our pups and sent us pictures and videos. She is reliable and is truly the absolute best pet sitter I have ever had!!!”
“Angela is an excellent pet sitter - responsible, reliable, always on time, and great at responding right away. My cat loved her and I could not have asked for a better helper. Will definitely reach out again. Highly recommend Angela!”
About: My experience started when I was around 9 years old. My aunt had a cocker spaniel so that was my introduction into what caring for pets looked like. I treated Diamond, her name, as if she was my own. I learned how to bathe her, feed her, discipline her, play with her, and take her for walks. That same aunt then got three more dogs; a yorkie, a cavapo, and a pit bull so I got experience with taking care of three different dogs at the same time. It was beneficial because all three dogs had their own personalities. Also, pit bulls are so sweet and not the monsters the media says they are:). Next, my brother got a husky, Koda who you may see pictured, so that helped me learn what it was like to take care of big dogs. At first, Koda was scary because of his size but I soon learned that he was just a baby who wanted attention🥹. So I did just that. I would go out and play with him, give him toys, feed him, give him treats, and take him for walksies. It was hard because he pulls but I think I got the hand of it lol. Also, one of my cousins has a chihuahua/poodle mix who I’ll see every now and then who loves to do everything. She’s given me the most experience of how different a dog can be but she’s also so chill🥰 Recently, I gained experience with cats. Me and my roomies decided to adopt a cat named Junior who definitely gave us a run for our money. From seeing him when he was 4 months to now all grown up it’s been a ride. He loves to hide, is very mischievous, hates the outside, loves to climb, and picks and chooses when he wants to cuddle. He was definitely crazy but I love him so much. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters from time to time which have had dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. That has definitely helped me expand my knowledge and gave me a lot of insight on how it is to treat puppies, kitties, sick babies, and the elderly ones🥺. So no matter what your fur baby has to offer, I’ll be there to love on them and provide them with what they need while your away🥰 I’m a college student home for the holidays so I will have a pretty open schedule! I don’t start school for another month so if you are looking for someone to watch your babies as the summer wraps up and last minute trips are taken, I got you!!❤️ All I ask for is a days notice at minimum and I’ll be happy to watch your babies. I will follow all rules presented by the owner. I will treat all pets like they are my very own and make sure they are loved and watched over!
“Amanda H. Has watched our GS girl Bella 3 different times and we will continue to ask her to pet sit. She’s amazing with Bella and takes time to play, talk and socialize with her. We highly recommend Amanda!”
About: I have quite a bit of experience when it comes to caring for animals. I’ve personally taken care of my own dogs as well as family members. I can feed, bathe, walk, administer medication, and complete whatever duties needed to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable. I have experience in caring for puppies and senior dogs. I’ve also earned my certification to be a Veterinary Assistant. Im currently not employed full time, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am currently enrolled in my 1st year of Vet Tech school, but it will not affect me being able to work for rover. I have a fenced in backyard that is secure for my pets. I make sure that there’s nothing on the ground that can harm my pets. I keep a close eye on my pets while they are outside whether it’s to play or potty. I also have cameras for extra security. I plan to care for my clients pets like they are my own. If I’m visiting a clients home I would follow those same safety precautions.
About: With over 7 years of trusted experience caring for furry friends (cats and dogs alike), I provide a safe and reliable environment for your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, tools, and equipment to ensure the best possible stay. Whether I care for your pets in my clean, pet-friendly home or yours, I offer comfort, security, and plenty of attention and love . I commit to making every pet feel at home while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on pet care. I’m able to plan my days around visits, walks, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets reliable attention and care throughout the week I provide attentive, individualized care during every walk and drop in visit. I take time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and needs; whether that means an energetic walk, a potty break, feeding, playtime, or quiet companionship. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and positive reinforcement to ensure pets feel happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Fur babies are family! They need love and patience. Growing up I had a Pekingese for 13 years and then a poodle mix for 12 years. So I learned at an early age the responsibility of caring for the family pet. My first adult pet was a mini lob rabbit which I had for 10 years. It had some medical issues in which required regular care from the local vet. A few years ago I was introduced to Great Danes and immediately fell in love! Zoe, my twelve year old Dane lived her best life. She went to parks, family gatherings, car rides, camping. She passed away last year at the age of 12 1/2. I am not ready for another pet just yet and now that I have some free time I would love to give others the sense of security by playing, loving and caring for their pet. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule. With that flexibility I have the opportunity to check on your pets or provide over night care with short notices. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for your pet to lay in the sun, run, stretch and play! For over night stays a crate might be beneficial depending on your pets behavior and comfort. For day to day visits I will respect your property and pet and follow your guidelines to ensure our pet friendly visit is successful.
“We have had Kari check on our cat several times and she always does a fantastic job! Our cat takes multiple medicines and can be a bit high maintenance, but Kari always takes great care of him and gives us thorough updates. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and that’s so comforting to any pet owner.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 11. I’ve had three different pets, all of whom have lived to old age and had incredible health. I’ve also served as a dog sitter for neighbors, family, and friends. I’m an avid hiker and runner, which means that your dog will have no problem having someone to keep them active. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available on weekdays after 6 PM, and I also offer dog sitting on weekends. I start my day early—usually around 6 AM—so I’m happy to take your dog on a morning jog or walk, as well as another walk in the evening. Right now, I’m on summer break, which means my schedule is much more flexible, allowing me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day as needed. If I’m in the client’s home, I respect their space, follow their guidelines closely, and maintain open communication. I provide updates and photos to build trust and reassure owners that their pets are happy and safe. Whether feeding, walking, playing, or administering medication, I handle every task with care and attention to detail.
“Alexia went above and beyond to not just make sure my two kitties were taken care of, but also managed to keep them comfortable and happy while we were out of town for a week! She cleaned the litter box out and even tidied up and vacuumed when needed. The cats love her and we will definitely have her back”
“Kamryn took care of our two cats for a week and was great about getting over there to see them. This was her first experience with cat sitting, which has some different requirements than dog sitting, obviously.She always sent pictures of our fuzzballs after she was done, which was great to see they were in good hands. Thank you so much!”
“Well aside from the initial visit which one tremendously well, I have had one visit with my dog Avalanche. He took to her really fast, she was very loving caring and sweet to him during the visit. I would highly recommend her to anybody else. She is great in communicating as well as very punctual. Thank you for watching my little guy makes me feel much better while I'm at work.”
About: I’ve had the privilege to care for animals professionally for over 20 years in the zoo field. My work has given me extensive experience reading animal behavior and providing patient, low-stress care tailored to each individual’s needs. While my career includes working with a wide variety of species, I genuinely love spending time with dogs and cats. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or just likes things done a certain way, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make each visit a positive experience. I’m comfortable caring for puppies and kittens, senior pets, multi-pet households, and administering many oral medications. I use positive reinforcement, prioritize safety, and pay close attention to details, so you can trust that your pet’s routine will be followed carefully. Communication is also important to me. You’ll receive updates and photos after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine! On weekdays, I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks before work and again after 4:00 p.m. Since I work a consistent first-shift schedule (7:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.), you can count on reliable availability. My weekends are Sunday and Monday, when I have much more flexibility for visits and walks throughout the day. For drop-in visits and walks, I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding, refreshing water, administering approved medications, cleaning litter boxes, potty breaks, playtime, or simply spending quality time with your pet. During walks, I pay close attention to each dog’s body language, the environment, weather conditions, and any potential hazards. I use positive reinforcement and never force a pet into situations that make them uncomfortable. If your pet is shy or nervous, I’ll let them set the pace and work to build trust through calm, patient interactions. I also know how important communication is while you’re away. After every visit, I’ll send you an update with photos and let you know how your pet did, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for.
“This was my first time booking with Katie, and she was excellent. She communicated every step of the way and kept me fully informed. She is kind, professional, and has a great personality. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care and will absolutely book her again.”
About: My availability is very flexible. I work from home now and am finally able to love on your fur babies around the clock! I also offer house sitting at your home or at my house as well. I love taking the fur babies out for a walk. It’s good exercise for them and myself to get fresh air. Previously had two chihuahua’s that were escape artists so fully doggy proof. I also have experience on working with handicap fur babies. I currently worked with a fur baby that lost motion in his back legs prior to his visit to me and he was/is now able to balance on his back legs from the at home physical therapy we would do. And now he gets so excited when I drop by his home to check on him (we are actual best friends seriously.) I am available to walk your dogs or check in on your cats/dogs while you are away as well as make sure they are fed and have plenty of water and play time throughout the day if you have an extremely busy schedule. I have been house sitting dogs and cats previously for well over 15 years and have owned pets previously (before my parents moved overseas and kept the pack together) for well over 20 years. Would love to help with your fur babies! I work full time as a manager from home so I am able to fully utilize loving on your fur baby as well as take them out for walks and potty breaks consistently. When I am pet sitting the babies sleep in the bed with me and are on the couch getting all of the cuddles. It is a staycation.
About: My mom and I originally shared this Rover account, and now I’m taking it over myself. I’ve helped care for pets through the account and have also been pet sitting for family, friends, and clients for years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m available every day and have a flexible schedule, so I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last-minute bookings. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, allowing me to give each pet plenty of attention and care. I have a safe and loving environment to cater to your pet needs. I have a fenced home for your pet to run and play and to enjoy their stay. I have 2 dogs. I could also come to your home to provided loving care for your pets.
About: I’m a lifelong dog/pet owner and have had my own dog for 6 years. I enjoy staying busy, and would love to spend time with dogs when I’m free! I live in an apartment near Willow Bend, but would be willing to drive a moderate distance to watch your pup! I am a movie lover who enjoys spending the day lounging around or playing with my 12 pound Chihuahua/ Pinscher mix! My family lives close by and we frequently have dog play dates. I allow dogs on my furniture and keep them out in the house whenever I am home. Your dog will get plenty of attention, excercise, and love will you are away! Thanks! I work full time, 9-5, however when I am watching your furbaby, all of my free time will be devoted to them for play and love! I am not available for boarding in my own home, but I am available for house sits and drop ins! When I am in your home, your pets are my top priority. I prefer to spend my time with them, and will treat them as if they were my own. Our time will be spent playing inside, or enjoying the fresh air outside in your backyard or on walks. I am also unbothered by dogs on furniture, and am familiar with all personalities. If you prefer to have your pets kenneled when I am away, that will be no issue.

I don’t know where to start! My 3 cats adored Kari! She was so loving and played with them which was a plus. We were gone for 5 weeks and I felt so at ease knowing they were in good hands. They loved their fresh water, food and especially their snacks! We have 2 more trips planned this year so we are sending her the dates for her calendar! Absolutely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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.

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.

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.
