“Paige was an amazing caregiver for our cats. She showed them so much love and attention in addition to taking care of them. I look forward to her taking care of them again in the future!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, and other pets over the years. I especially have extensive experience with cats and have been caring for my own cat for 7 years. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to get to know them and let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’m a full-time online student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive to each pet’s individual routine and personality. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so I always treat pets with the same kindness and care I would want for my own. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any other instructions you leave for me. I also love sending updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!
About: I have two dogs and one cat currently but three cats in the past! I love all animals and feel connected towards them. I have been working specifically dog walking and sitting for about two years on apps like wag. I am a psychology major and want to work with service animals in the future! I am in school finishing up my degree and minor and mostly do online. I want to work with service animals so dog walking and sitting is a perfect way to gain experience and knowledge on all different kinds of animals and breeds. I care immensely and treat all animals like my own. I want people to be able to feel comfortable with me around their animals and inside their home. I know it takes a lot of trust and vulnerability to let someone you don’t personally know inside your home, so I want to make the experience for everyone as easy as possible. I like to give updates and response quickly to pet parents.
“This was our first time using Rover for drop-in visits, and Erik made the experience very smooth. He even did a meet-up beforehand to make sure our dog was comfortable with him. He was very responsive and great at giving updates, which gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend him!”
“Courtney took care of Taco for 10 days at her place, I am so thankful. She kept me updated and sent photos while I was out of the country. I’ve never left him this long, but she made sure he was given all the cuddles and attention he needed. Definitely recommend her! I will be coming back to her in the future. Thanks again Courtney!!”

“Pae is great! Very communicative, friendly, and takes great care of Cloud. Always arrives on time. Takes notes even on tiny things. She sends us photos of Cloud as well. Highly recommend!!”
“Aleksandr always goes above and beyond whenever he takes care of our cat. He is very reliable, he visited our cat on a predictable schedule and fed him, cleaned up after him, gave him pets and played with him. He also sent us a few pictures and a short description about how things went each day.”

About: I am a Certified Veterinarian Assistant and graduated from Orange County Veterinarian Assistant School in 2024. I am properly trained in animal husbandry and activley work to provide a trusting and loving relationship with the pets I serve. Being a Veterinarian Assistant I am constantly around animals and have learned how to proper care for pets along with displaying a patient and compassionate environment where pets feel safe. Along with basic feeding and care of my pets and others pets I am a certified Veterinarian Assistant who is trained in giving medications prescribed for at home use by a doctor. I am trained to know what to do in emergencies regarding pets and what to look out for.
About: Over the past 10 years or so I have spent time taking care of many of my neighbors pets while they go on vacation. I have taken care of their puppies and kitties by taking them on walks feeding and playing with them and watching their house overnight while they are away. I have expanded my experience by pet sitting for more than just my neighbors and connecting with people online when they need a pet sitter. I work part time and on my days off I enjoy taking neighbors dogs on walks or pet sitting their kitties while they are away in my free time. I usually pet sit for people in their homes. I follow the instructions given to me whether this is crating their pets at night, separating them if needed while eating, take them on walks and stay over night and comfort their pets if asked so they are not lonely and don’t tear up the house. I get the information as needed from owners for their pets triggers to make sure they are safe on walks and while in the home while family is away. I stay in the home if needed and instructed by the owners. I have my own two dogs and a cat. I am able to safely give pets medication if needed as I’ve learned how to do this with one of my dogs who is on several medications I also know where the emergency animal hospital is nearby if ever needed. I also have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have taken care of many different dogs and cats with different triggers, personalities and requirements over the past 10 or so years. I grew up with cats and dogs so I would consider my experience with animals much longer than 10 years but specifically doing it as a job would be about 10 years
About: My dogs are my life, and I want to ensure your dogs are well taken care of while you’re away. I have experience taking care of multiple dogs, from puppies to senior dogs, and dogs with timely medications. I had my first dog at 9 years old for 15 amazing years. My second dog, I’ve had since she was a puppy and has crossed the rainbow at 16 years old. She was also on specific timed medication for the last 3 years. I also take care of my brothers 2 dogs. I am currently unemployed, and I’ve been working on freelance work projects from home. I have plenty of time to care for dog and I am flexible with time. I have a fenced backyard your dog can spend time in. I also have a small fenced area in my home they can stay in comfortably, and separately from the other dogs. All preferences can be catered to your pet such as if you want your dogs away from other pets or if you would like them outdoors more that inside, etc.
About: I’ve spent the last 10 years walking dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and caring for animals is truly one of my favorite parts of life. I’m super active, love being outdoors, and I’m always excited to take your pets on runs, hikes, or long adventures. If your pet prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy to enjoy cozy couch cuddles and calm hang-outs. I’m also a cat mom, so I fully understand the different needs and quirks of both dogs and cats. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or just keeping their routine consistent, your pet will be treated like family. My partner and I both have very flexible schedules, which means one of us is always home and available to give your pet attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 💛🐶🐱 I’m self-employed and work entirely on my own schedule, and my boyfriend does the same. Because of that flexibility, we’re able to ensure that someone is always home to give your cat consistent care, attention, and supervision. Your baby will never be left alone for long periods — they’ll have company, comfort, and plenty of love throughout the day. We live in a home with a spacious, fully fenced backyard that has plenty of sun and grass for your pet to enjoy safely. We’re also just one block from a large park with a huge open grass field, perfect for playtime, walks, and outdoor enrichment. I’m a very clean and organized person, and I always clean up after pets and keep spaces tidy. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll make sure everything stays neat, maintained, and respected while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Palos Verdes Peninsula
Ruby was absolutely amazing!! 🥹💕 My kitties adored her! Even when our Litter-Robot unexpectedly went offline in the middle of the night because of a WiFi connection issue, I reached out to her, and she was so accommodating! She came earlier than scheduled at the last minute to check on it and spend extra time with my babies. Talk about going above and beyond! 🐾❤️ My cautious little princess, Suki Bear, even came out to hang out with Ruby and her brother AND let Ruby pet her! That says a lot because Suki doesn’t warm up to just anyone! 🥹 Tommy Boy was his usual energetic, playful self and absolutely loved all the attention and playtime! I had such peace of mind knowing my babies were in loving hands while we were away. A++++ service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My kitties and I can’t thank you enough, Ruby! We’ve officially found our go-to kitty sitter for all our future trips! Highly, highly recommend! 💕🐱
Christina goes above and beyond and is extremely available and responsive. She is also very patient with my very shy pet making an effort to reach out and comfort her while I am away. She is the best on all aspects and I am extremely happy with her capabilities and open, clear communication.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
