About: I’m a college student home for the summer- I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes! I have loved taking care of pets since I got a dog of my own in 2014. I’m a dependable and active pet sitter who treats every dog like my own. I’m calm, patient, and great with routines. What you can expect: – Consistent feeding & walk schedules – Photo and text updates – Extra care for shy or anxious dogs – Safe environment I am eager to spend time with your furry friends! I am a full time student at Westmont college, and I’m available most weekdays and weekends. I love to walk local neighborhoods and beaches in my free time and would love to have your pet come along! I have some availability on weekends for walks and drop-ins! I do not provide my own home care- though I’d love to spend time with your friend outside or in-house! I have lots of experience house sitting and pet sitting for friends and neighbors.
About: With 12 years managing a nonprofit animal rescue, I bring hands-on experience in both daily care and veterinary needs. I’m confident with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including special needs pets—your furry family is safe with me! While house sitting, I do work Thursday–Monday and am off Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I usually head out around 6:30–7am, but I have flexibility in my schedule and can sometimes work from home. I make sure all pets are well cared for with plenty of attention, exercise, and love before and after my workday. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own home. I do my best to keep everything consistent—from feeding and walks to their favorite cuddle spots. Whether your pet needs extra attention, quiet companionship, or lots of snuggles, I’m there to make their time without you as stress-free as possible.
About: I love pets! I’ve had cats and dogs in my life. Our animals are like family and I would love to help take good care of yours. I am happy to help out in the early mornings, or evenings! I usually work from 11am-6:00pm but I am free before and after that. I currently have a cat and I make sure I always have her fed, her space cleaned, and give pets. Lots of the cats I’ve cat sat for I will make sure to keep the inside if they are inside cats or follow instructions on how to get them inside if they are allowed outside.
About: I have lived with dogs for 38 of my 41 years. From small ones to big ones. Currently we just have a cat so itching to play with some pups. Have cared for dogs recovering from surgeries and from puppies to seniors. Ready to give your pet some love I work 7-4, but off on most fridays and weekends, plus my job allows for flexibility when needed. Would enjoy playing with your pets and going on long walks. Stimulated pets always rest the best and seem the most satisified. I will treat your pet and home with the utmost respect and love. Tons of attention and lots of play, while ensuring to keep your home clean and tidy
“Cynthia was great!!! We were nervous about leaving our rescue dog for the first time. She was very responsive to messages and at the meet and greet asked good questions and answered any questions we had. She went above and beyond each day for both our dog and cat! She is truly one of the best pet sitters ever!”
“Sam was great. We struggle with having someone outside our immediate family watch our cat’s, but we have this a shot and Sam was awesome great communicator both before and during our vacation. He sent a bunch of photos for us, the Rover report cards after each visit, and even brought in an Amazon package that arrived earlier than expected. There is no question I will request Sam for all future vacations - 100% Thanks Sam!”
About: The same traits that have served me well in taking care of special needs people , helps me serve the needs of pets who can’t speak for themselves. Paying attention to their moods and expressions and eating habits gives me confidence and assurance they are happy and healthy, or when it could be time to call for help I work mostly weekends part time so I have lots of time to share with pets, The most I would need to be away from your pet is 4 hours. I love to talk to animals sweetly and greet them as friends and family , it makes me feel good to know they have all the food ,Water, meds and exercise they need.
About: I’m good with dogs. I’m also very patient and interactive with them. No longer have my own but I’ll treat your doggie like my own. I’m am currently working nights during the week so I have time in the morning for some walks or some hikes. Weekends schedule always changes. Previously I’ve dog sat and at the same time house sat while clients were out of town. I’m very cautious and trustworthy as well very vigilant of my surroundings.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for the past 7 years, and for the last 2 years I’ve also volunteered at my local animal shelter. Through this, I’ve had the chance to work with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy! I work a 9–5 as an engineer, but outside of those hours my schedule is very flexible. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and all weekend. I live in a safe, gated community, which gives pets an extra layer of security when they’re with me. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I always make their safety my top priority—keeping a close eye on them during walks, making sure leashes and harnesses are secure, and giving them a comfortable, stress-free environment.
“Sarah took excellent care of my dog. She gave us so much peace of mind on our trip and it was honestly like we never left. Our dog obviously had a wonderful few days of drop in care with Sarah and we will be contacting her again in the future for more care. Thank you, Sarah!”
About: I’m very passionate when it comes to animals and pets. I have patience, I pay close attention to detail, and have a genuine love for animals. I have experience in caring for high energy pets. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific needs each pet has. I stay consistent so pets feel comfortable and less stressed while their owners are away. Our pets are our family, they bring us the joy and love we sometimes don’t even realize we’re missing. They are just babies and should always be treated as priority!
“Jessica and john are the best. this is only our first visit, with them,but Zoe loves them. John came by to feed and visit with Zoe while we were gone for the week end. he spent plenty of time with her, and sent me pictures of her eating and relaxing on the coach. Zoe felt so comfortable with him, she even showed him all her stuffed toys. I don't know why I took so long to sign up with Rover.com.”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of real dog-mom experience, a deep passion for animal welfare, and years of caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve cared for puppies, energetic adults, and senior dogs who need extra patience and support. I’m comfortable with all types of breeds and temperaments, and I focus on giving each dog exactly what they need—whether that’s playtime, routine, comfort, or calm companionship. Beyond pet sitting, I’ve also hosted adoption events and built a network with local shelters, including supporting dogs on euthanasia lists by helping them find safe placements. This work has taught me how to read behavior, build trust quickly, and provide gentle, loving care to dogs who may be anxious or shy. My background as a previous dog mom helps me understand how important peace of mind is. I care for every dog with the same attention, love, and safety I wanted for my own. Your pup isn’t just watched—they’re truly cared for. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, but pet care fits naturally into my evenings and weekends. I do work from home 4 days a week and can drop in during the day if needed as well. I’m available for visits after work, as well as throughout the weekends, and I make sure each pet gets my full attention, consistency, and care during those times. My schedule allows me to provide reliable support for families who need evening check-ins, weekend care, or flexible coverage outside standard work hours. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and their environment comfortable. I follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication instructions exactly as provided. I make sure water bowls stay fresh, food areas and litter or potty spaces remain clean, and the home is left tidy after each visit. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being, and I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My priority is to ensure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for in the space they trust most—their own home.

Tai did an amazing job watching my kitties!! She happens to be sisters with my prior Rover sitter, so it was a seamless transition :) tai was punctual, paid excellent attention to my babies and was very respectful of my space. I highly recommend her and will likely book again!
Cynthia was great!!! We were nervous about leaving our rescue dog for the first time. She was very responsive to messages and at the meet and greet asked good questions and answered any questions we had. She went above and beyond each day for both our dog and cat! She is truly one of the best pet sitters ever!
Ross was an absolute Godsend!! He took such good care of my kitties, and they warmed up to him rather quickly, even my shy girl Rosie. He kept in touch promptly and made sure to leave detailed notes after each visit. He was extremely accommodating as well, as maintenance had to change my locks while I was away and I also had a package delivered early... I informed him of all of this and he graciously changed my keys on my key ring and made sure my package made it inside safely. He went above and beyond the call of duty and I felt my kitties were in great hands. I would 100% book with him again!
Cori was amazing! She looked after my cat, Maple, for two weeks and did such a great job. She visited regularly, played with Maple, and kept her happy and comfortable the whole time. She even took care of my houseplants without me asking. I totally recommend Cori and will definitely book her again in the future.

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.

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.
