“Erin did a fantastic job watching our two cats for a week. She was attentive and responsive, asking clarification questions during the meet and greet and provided updates during the week. Both of our cats have specific feeding instructions, which were followed without issue. Erin even came to care for our cats during a crazy rain storm, which was much appreciated! We would definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up with both cats and dogs and always having pets as part of my family. I currently have four cats, a dog, and a horse of my own, so caring for animals is a huge part of my everyday life. My cats require medications, so I’m comfortable administering medication and following specific care routines and instructions. Having cared for animals for so many years, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and will always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat every pet I care for like one of my own! I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a priority throughout my day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication, playtime, and plenty of attention at a variety of times, and I’m happy to work around whatever schedule your pet is most comfortable with. With four cats, a dog, and a horse of my own, caring for animals is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I understand that every pet has their own schedule and needs, so I’m very flexible and can accommodate early mornings, afternoons, evenings, and other times as needed. My goal is to make things as easy as possible for you while keeping your pet’s normal routine consistent. My home is very pet-friendly and already set up with animals in mind! Since I have pets of my own, I’m used to creating a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where animals can relax and feel at home. There’s plenty of space for your pet to play, lounge, and get lots of attention throughout their stay. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s normal routine, including their feeding schedule, walks, medications, sleeping arrangements, and any other special instructions you may have. I can also provide separate spaces when needed, especially for pets who prefer some quiet time or need a little extra time to adjust to a new environment. Above all, I want your pet to feel like part of the family while they’re here. They’ll receive plenty of supervision, affection, playtime, and individualized attention so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re being cared for just like one of my own.

About: I have about 20 years of experience caring for dogs of different ages, breeds, backgrounds, and temperaments, including strays, purebreds, puppies, senior dogs, working breeds, and dogs in multi-pet households. I have experience with basic training, puppy care, medication, special diets, enrichment activities, structured routines, and dogs who need a little extra patience or attention. I’m also comfortable caring for reactive dogs and understand how important consistency, awareness, and following a pet parent’s established routine can be. I’m happy to work with dogs of all life stages and always try to provide the same attentive, dependable care I would want for my own. I’m very flexible and happy to work around your schedule. This is because I prefer to focus on only a couple of clients at a time to ensure that all pets in my care are receiving the absolute best support and attention I can provide. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I understand that I’m being trusted with both a beloved animal and someone’s personal space. I’m respectful of your home, belongings, routines, and boundaries, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you provide. That can include walking your dog along a preferred route, ensuring your cat has their favorite toy or treat, keeping to established feeding and exercise schedules, or taking them on approved outings such as a park visit or another familiar activity. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as comfortable and consistent as possible while giving you peace of mind that both your pet and your home are being treated with care.

About: I’ve pet sat for neighbors’ dogs of all ages since high school, and I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and cleaning up waste. I’m also very routine-focused—I stick closely to your dog’s schedule so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I grew up with a mutt who recently passed, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, lovin, and caring for your dog. I’ll treat your pup like my own and provide daily updates with photos, plus quick notes on meals and how their day went. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I work Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons into early evenings, and Sunday mornings into early afternoon. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and extended visits. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent care, along with daily updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away. 🐾📸 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any household rules you have in place. I make sure your pet always has fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and comfort. For dogs, I’m careful with leash safety, door safety, and picking up waste on every walk. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean, make sure doors and windows stay secure, and respect their comfort level—whether they want playtime or quiet companionship.

“Christine was fantastic!! I knew my kitty was in good care with her. I could tell my kitty was happy and well cared for. Christine jumped in at the last minute to replace a sitter we had a bad experience with, and she followed every instruction, was very communicative, and bonded well with my kitty.

Alice was amazing caring for our 2 cats and 1 dog. While sitting for us, our dog had a medical emergency and she couldn't reach my husband and I. She took the initiative to call the vet and bring him in for care. She went above and beyond to ensure he was OK, and kept us informed of how he was doing until we got back home the next day. We highly recommend Alice - she is kind, responsible and communicative!

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 .

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.

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.
