“Whitney was absolutely amazing with all 4 of our animals! She was very communiticive and provided thorough updates each visit! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: Hi! My name is Isabel and I truly love animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family and I treat every dog like part of my own family. I provide a safe, calm and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy walking, playing and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I always send photos and updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness and comfort are always my priority. During the week I am available in the mornings and early afternoons (8 AM – 4:30 PM). I attend classes from 5:30 PM to 8:15 PM, but I am available again in the evenings after that if needed. On weekends I have more flexibility and can work mornings or afternoons. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. When I stay in a pet owner’s home, I follow their routines and instructions carefully to keep their pets relaxed and happy. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, just like they were my own.
About: Hi! I’m Lindsey, and I’ve grown up around pets my whole life. Being around animals has always felt natural to me, and I love getting to know each pet’s personality. I’ve also volunteered walking dogs in the past, which gave me experience with a wide range of dogs, from small breeds to large dogs, and from playful puppies to slower-paced senior pups. I’m comfortable handling pets with different temperaments and energy levels, whether that’s taking a dog out for a walk, stopping by for a visit, or spending some time giving a cat attention and care. I also have experience giving medication. My own dog had diabetes, and I gave him daily insulin shots, so I understand how important it is to follow instructions carefully and make sure pets feel calm and safe during those moments. I’m reliable, attentive, and a big animal lover. I truly enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats and would treat your pet like my own. I’m always happy to adjust to whatever helps your pet feel comfortable, whether that’s sticking closely to their routine, giving them playtime and enrichment, or just keeping them company. Before caring for your pet, I like to learn about their routine, personality, and anything that helps them feel at ease. Every pet is different, and I want to make sure they have the best experience possible. I work full time during the week, but I love spending my free time caring for pets! I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting for both dogs and cats. On weekdays, my availability is usually early mornings (around 5:30–7:30 AM) and evenings (about 5:30–10 PM). On weekends, I’m more flexible and typically have greater availability for visits, walks, and house sitting. If you’re unsure whether your timing fits, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to see if we can make something work! I take safety and trust seriously when caring for pets. I always pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and environment to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely and accommodate any special instructions, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or preferred walking routes. I also make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Kyle was amazing with my doggie! I’m so grateful she came through for us when we needed a sitter for my out-of-town trip! I would recommend her to my closest family and friends!”
“Claudia has cared for Milo at least five times now, and every experience has been outstanding. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving and capable hands whenever I’m away. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely treats Milo like he’s part of her own family. She always pays attention to the little details, keeps me updated, and makes sure he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The moment Milo sees Claudia, his tail starts wagging and he gets so excited—that says everything about the bond they’ve built. I couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. Thank you, Claudia, for always taking such incredible care of my sweet boy. I wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pet as if it were their own!”
“Amanda did an excellent job! She responded promptly when I first reached out. She was very thorough with her questions when she came to visit, and the other great reviews on her page gave me lots of confidence for working with her. I usually hire my friends, some of whom have never watched a cat before and do an okay job, so hiring Amanda was very refreshing and money well spent. She left very thorough rover cards after each visit with many pictures. One thing that really stood out to me was how careful she was when opening/closing/locking the door. My biggest fear is my cat getting outside (even though it has never happened), and I have a camera on my door. I could see her carefully scanning the area by the door when opening/closing it, and she also jiggled the door handle after locking to ensure that it was secure. In the past, I've had to remind my friends to do that and leave notes for them by the door, but Amanda made sure to do it unprompted, so that really demonstrated how responsible and serious she is about her job.”
“Victoria was absolutely wonderful. I was so happy with the care she provided and I completely trust her with my dogs. From the very beginning she was professional, kind, and clearly experienced with pets. My dogs adore Victoria. They were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. She followed all of our instructions carefully, kept them on their usual routine, and sent regular photo. That gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly loves dogs. I will definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Victoria!”
“Emma came to take our dogs out while we were away for the day. She sent pics both times, one of which is my new favorite picture of Ollie. We will not hesitate to book Emma again.”
“Natalie took great care of our dog and cat while we were away for a few days. Her communication was excellent and the care she provided was too notch. We will 100% ask for Natalie’s services in the future when we need help with our pets.”
About: I’ve lived and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, all being from shelters. As a vegan I believe in animal rights and welfare and will always treat your animals the same way I’d treat a human. I am starting the summer semester at USF but I think it’s important to stay active and I think this is a great way to. I’ve recently moved from Texas and I’m missing my babies so a little quality time with some puppies or cats would be great Scheduled feeding and potty breaks are welcome and playtime is always guaranteed. I always make sure that my pets have enough water so I will do the same for yours.
About: What sets us apart is that we’re a dedicated pet-loving couple, which means your pet gets double the attention, supervision, and affection. We truly treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. We’re attentive to each pet’s personality and routine — whether that means energetic walks and playtime, or calm companionship for more relaxed or senior pets. We’re also patient with shy animals and happy to follow detailed care instructions, feeding schedules, and medication needs. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are available throughout the day to provide attention, walks, feeding, and companionship. After we finish work around 5 PM, we have plenty of time in the evenings for longer walks, playtime, and check-ins. We occasionally go to the gym during the week, but we always plan our schedules to make sure the pets in our care receive consistent attention and reliable care. We focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routines as closely as possible. In a client’s home, we make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and have a clean and safe environment. We’re also happy to give medication, refresh water, and keep litter boxes clean if needed.
“Hey whatever is easier on you! I’ll ask leasing office and see what they say, but the leasing here is amazing and super nice so I’m sure they have no problem thank you SO MUCH!!”
“Leroy was a big help, when we brought our puppy home. Skye really enjoyed seeing him for her potty break every day, while I was at work. I would highly recommend him to anyone! And if I need a pet sitter again, he would be my first choice.”
“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of my cat Teddy! He has been going through a lot and is on new medication, but Amanda gave him his meds no problem. She was great at scooping his litter box and cleaning up after him. She’s an amazing sitter, will definitely use again!”
About: I’ve taken care and trained all sorts of dogs since I was a child! My mother and myself did Paws Woth A Cause training ever since I was 7 years old so I have 10+ years experience of training and have a golden retriever currently! I work part time so I have plenty of time to be home and care for your pet(s)! Boarding from Thursday-Sunday (24hour) and weekdays after 5pm! I have a fenced in backyard and a very safe neighborhood for walks! I also have a loving golden retriever to play with any dog here! If your pet needs to be crated we can talk about that as well!
About: **We accept requests for dogs up to 50lbs for boarding** My husband Cory and I have had plenty of happy clients with both walking and dog sitting. We've had our own pup, Bean, for 3 years, and have been watching pups for years both back in the state of RI and through Rover in DC for six years. We're experienced with puppies as young as 3 months old to dogs as old as 18 years, so we have ample experience with dogs of all ages, including administering meds. We honestly love everything about dogs and watching them is a pure joy because our pup Bean loves friends! We're extremely patient and always go above and beyond with our clients' dogs -- we treat your dog like a part of the family. **In order to book, we would need to have a meet and greet with your pup and ours to ensure they get along and also to ensure you feel confident leaving your pup with us while you're away.** We can't wait to be your next dog sitter!! Both of us work from home full time, so we are available to let your pup out to play in our fenced back yard any time they want. Our dog Bean is a diva and he demands walks to poop, so you can expect your pup to get at least two mile-long walks per day with our dog and plenty of time in our back yard playing. Simply put, we would treat your dog like they're our own. Our pup is like our child and you can expect your dog to be treated the exact same when they're with us. We allow dogs on the furniture, in the bed, and supervise playtime. If you need a crate, we can provide one for your pup when they're here. We also provide pictures to update you about how your pup is doing and can provide potty report cards if you'd like!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Palm River-Clair Mel
Katherine was excellent! She was able to work us in at the last minute when our previous cat sitter fell through shortly before a trip. She was extremely communicative, accommodating of specific requests, stayed the full 30 minutes, engaged with our cat the whole time, and gave very detailed reports. She also went above and beyond by bringing in several packages that arrived while we were gone. We will absolutely be using Katherine again in the future!
Amanda has done check ins for my spicy cat, Rizzo, on many occasions. She has been very patient with my cat’s temperament and has been able to gain her trust. Her communication is always above expectation and she is always very detailed with her reports when checking in! :) I would highly recommend her!
We couldn’t be happier with our pet sitter! They were reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring with our pet. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pet was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
