About: I’ve been volunteering with animals since I was 8 years old, which gave me a strong foundation in responsibility, compassion, and hands-on animal care from a young age. Over the years, I’ve worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, learning how to approach each one with patience and understanding. Volunteering taught me how important consistency, gentle handling, and careful observation are when caring for pets. In addition to volunteering, I have pets of my own, so I understand firsthand the daily commitment that comes with being a pet owner. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animal, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, behavior changes, and overall comfort to make sure they feel safe and secure. I also worked as a kennel technician, where I cared for animals in a structured, professional environment. In this role, I gained experience with proper handling techniques, maintaining clean and sanitary spaces, monitoring for signs of stress or illness, and ensuring each animal’s needs were met efficiently and safely. Working in that setting strengthened my ability to stay calm, organized, and attentive, even in busy environments. Animal care has always been a consistent and meaningful part of my life. It’s not just something I do, it’s something I genuinely care about and take pride in. Pet care fits well into my routine. I work at a school during the day, which means I’m available after 2:30 PM on weekdays. I’m also fully available on weekends and have extended availability during school holidays, spring break, and summer break. Because of my schedule, I’m a great option for families needing care during holiday travel or extended trips. I can provide afternoon, evening, and overnight care depending on distance. I prioritize organization and time management to ensure every pet receives consistent, reliable attention and care. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my own home because I have pets of my own and limited space. I want to ensure that every animal in my care feels comfortable and safe, and I believe being realistic about space is important for everyone’s well-being. Instead, I focus on providing high-quality care in your home through drop-in visits and overnight stays. Many pets feel more relaxed in their familiar environment, and this allows me to maintain their routine while keeping their stress levels low. My goal is always to provide attentive, dependable care where your pet feels most secure.

About: I grew up in a house with cats and taking care of the neighbors golden retriever dog whenever they had trips. I house sat for pet owners throughout highschool. I have given pills to cats and dogs and also done light grooming such as baths, shampoos, and some nail work on dogs. I currently work at the hospital 4 days a week that are swing shifts. I have a flexible work schedule and am always looking for things to do on the side. I currently help care for a dog that requires medication so I am skilled at administering pills to dogs and making sure they actually take the pill. I enjoy going on walks with dogs and also have dog seatbelts if a drive is necessary for the dogs.
About: I’ve raised all my animals from babies. I’m a very caring animal lover and would do anything for them. I’m punctual and very honest. I will make sure I’m giving any and all pets the caring and love they need. I always make sure the animals are fed. Giving them all the love and attention they could ever want. And going that extra mile to make sure they’re happy. In clients homes I always make sure to keep the place clean. Clean up after the animals, take them out if they need to go. Feed them. Etc. I always try to make sure that everything is in the proper place.
“Maggie is excellent and the pups love seeing her come through the door. Maggie is very responsive and her report cards are awesome. She definitely takes the stress out of having to leave the pups at home during work.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have 4 cats and a 4-month-old puppy, so I understand the patience, attention, and love pets need every single day. Growing up surrounded by animals taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. From playful puppies to independent cats, I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets lots of affection and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently work a flexible part-time job, which gives me plenty of time throughout the week to care for pets and give them the attention they deserve. Since I also have 4 cats and a 4-month-old puppy of my own, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I enjoy spending my free time with them. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, young, or older. In a client’s home, I always follow instructions carefully to keep pets on their normal routine and help them feel as stress-free and comfortable as possible while their owner is away.
“Megan is the best! She always goes above and beyond to make sure our pets feel extra loved when we are out of town. We hope to continue to use Megan in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 183 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Paw Paw. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
