About: I have owned animals for most of my life and have always had genuine love for pets. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their animals because they know I am dependable, patient, and attentive. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m currently in school and studying to be a vet-tech! I stay at home, and do schooling online so I have plenty of time with my pets and any pets I take care of! I take safety and trust seriously and always follow each pet parent’s instructions and routine. I take my time when entering a pet’s home so they can get comfortable with me at their own pace. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, a clean and secure environment, and plenty of attention, playtime, or quiet space depending on what they need. I also keep doors, gates, and leashes secure and will communicate with owners about how their pet is doing during each visit.
“Jazmin was amazing checking in on Lucy! Followed all care instructions I had left for her. She was very communicative and sent me so many update pictures/videos of Lucy. Definitely recommend booking with her as a dog sitter!”
“Justin was great with our dog! He quickly became familiar with his activity levels and he took him on walks and jogs, and gave him stimulating treats to keep him busy during the day/while we were gone. Justin took wonderful pictures to include in the daily check-ins, and when we checked our house camera we could see our dog laying by the door hoping for Justin's return, or he would lay at Justin's.”
“Hans took extra care and love with our fur babies. He is kind, loves animals and very experienced. I truly appreciate his above and beyond kindness. Would highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has had pets by my side essentially my entire life. I currently have a dog and two cats of my own, so I understand how much our pets mean to us—and how important it is to feel comfortable leaving them in someone else’s care. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine works best for them. My goal is to give your pets the same care and attention I’d want someone to give mine. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and help give you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️ I work full time but have weekends and every other Monday off perfect for drop in sitting, dog walking, play time or the occasional overnight stay My home is pet friendly with a medium sized fenced in back yard. I have a two cats and 1 medium sized dog. She is playful and friendly and a good dog friend
About: My passion for animals started at a young age. I often pet/ house sat for neighbors, friends and family. Many relied on me to care for their furry family members, knowing they would be diligently taken care of. I believe each pet has their own personalities and needs, deserving of mindful attention. I can’t wait to get to know your pet. I am currently working part time, so I have ample time to care for your pet. I believe in going the extra mile and making sure pets needs are met with compassion and care. I have a fenced yard and multiple bedrooms. Your animal can be crates or roam the house with us. I am home most of the day so your furry family members will have a day full of attention and care. I have a 10 year old step son who loves all animals too.
“Natalie was fantastic! She was professional, communicative, and timely. Natalie sent photos and videos from her visits and kept us posted throughout. We definitely recommend Natalie!”
About: Hi, I'm Kristina and I've been a veterinarian technician for 5 years! I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, affection, and devotion I give my own dog, Echo. I specialize in customized care tailored to your pet's unique personality—from energetic playtime and structured walks to gentle belly rubs and quiet companionship. I love keeping owners updated with frequent photo updates and detailed check-ins so you never have to worry while you're away. To ensure the safety and well-being of your pet, I require the assistance of a second person for administering injections or difficult medications if the animal becomes highly uncooperative. This helps keep stress low and procedures safe for everyone. I'm currently looking to sit for your fur babies part time while I'm out navigating a new work schedule for the time being Routine & Comfort: Keeps pets stress-free in their familiar environment by sticking strictly to their normal feeding, walking, and sleep schedules. Health & Safety: Precise administration of medications, daily litter/yard cleanup, secure handling, and close monitoring for any behavioral changes.
About: I'm new to Rover, but well-experienced in cat care. My home is like a ready-made daycare for the three of them. I'm like that helicopter mom who's always making sure my babies are safe and well cared for, and I will do the same for your pets. In the past, not only have I taken care of my animals, but I have also looked after strays walking through my apartment building. Especially during kitten season, mama cats need help the most. And if the neighbor's cat strays my way, I don't mind giving them a treat and some companionship, too. That's how I am with the furry ones; I'm there for them. And I will look forward to doing the same for your pets if you hire me for drop-in visits. I also want to point out that my services are for cats, but I would be more than happy to tend to your dog the same way if you have one at no additional charge right now. And that includes feedings, replenishing the water bowl, playing with them, administering meds (topical, not injections), and a little grooming. And because this is a DIV, sorry, I won't be doing dog walking. This saves me time in order to make it to my next client. Because I'm new at this, I prefer to do drop-in visits right now. I can do drop-in visits up to six days a week, in the afternoon. Just let me know how many days out of the six you need me. When hired, I will give your pet or pets plenty of play time and TLC. If you have specific instructions, such as how to administer meds, please let me know. I would also like to point out that, because I'm new here at Rover, I don't have any testimonials. Therefore, I'm willing to give you the best service possible and exchange for one.
“Kendra was very attentive to our animals. She gives detailed check ins with pictures. I felt our animals were well cared for. I will definitely request her again.”
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Throughout my life, I’ve helped rescue stray kittens, safely return lost dogs to their families, and provided loving end-of-life care for my childhood dog. These experiences have taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’m dedicated to treating every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time as an after-school program manager, with my workday beginning at 11:00 AM and ending at 6:30 PM on weekdays. This allows me to be available for morning visits, walks, feedings, drop-ins, and other pet care before 11:00 AM. I’m also fully available on weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive care, overnight stays, extended visits, or last-minute bookings. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and making sure every pet receives the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of safe walking paths and several nearby parks within walking distance, making it easy to provide regular exercise and outdoor time without the need for car rides if your pet isn’t comfortable traveling. I also have crates available if your pet is crate-trained or needs a secure space to relax. Although I currently don’t have any pets of my own after recently saying goodbye to my childhood dog, my home is already stocked with cozy beds, toys, and other pet essentials to help your furry friend feel welcome and at home. I strive to create a calm, clean, and loving environment where every pet receives personalized attention and is cared for like family.
“Claudia is wonderful and I can fully trust my senior pup is in great hands with her. She has experience with various pet ailments and provides appropriate care and compassion!”

“Ava, Thank you for the super meeting we had. Poppy and us enjoyed your interaction with our family. We look forward to seeing you again. Most sincerely, Michelle”
“This was our first time using a cat sitter for our two cats, and Aicha was great! Kind and detail oriented. During our two week trip, Aicha sent updates and photos. It was a big help and relief.”
“Ana does such a good job with our shy dog. She takes the time to try and get him to come around even getting on the floor to get him to trust her. She’s super dependable. She gave him all his meds and gave us continuous updates on a wound he was dealing with. She even watered our plants! Thank you!”
“Amanda was amazing! I felt so relieved knowing that Max was in great hands with her, she was also very knowledgeable about the French Bulldog breed which helped me feel so comfortable in her care. Aside from her care, her vibe is immaculate! Would absolutely book again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Parkway-South Sacramento
Debbie was incredibly caring and thoughtful while watching our bunny. We appreciated all of her care and were very confident that our rabbit was in great hands while we were out of town. She paid attention to detail and followed through with everything we had discussed! Would 100% recommend!
Hilda was great! She was very responsive and very punctual with our check ins. My cats felt very comfortable and safe with her, and she shared great pictures and updates of the care she took of them. I will absolutely reach out to her again whenever I’m out of town!
Emily was an awesome cat sitter for our two week vacation! She was a great communicator, quick to respond, and always kept us updated with lots of photos and videos. It’s always hard leaving our cats for that long, but Emily gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were cared for, loved, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We’re so grateful we found her. 10/10 would recommend, and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
Jazmin was so amazing!!! Truly incredible person with so much care for my sweet girl! Took her time coming to meet her beforehand and even fed a churu. I felt immediately comfortable with leaving the keys with her knowing she would be taking great care of her! No hesitation to book you again Jazmin and recommend you to everyone. Thank you!!

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.

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.
