“Cate immediately made us feel at ease and we knew our furr babies would be well taken care of. And, they were! She was amazing with communication and punctuality and our animals loved her. She is someone that you can trust with your beloved animals. It is a game changer for us in our ability to go away and be able to truly relax knowing someone who is responsible, and so kind and loving is with our furry kids. Highly recommend!”
About: I am very good with anxious dogs especially during storms. I love playing with dogs and taking them on walks. I have been watching dogs and cats for years now and am dependable. I am currently a full time student in college but I often have time off on weekends to take care of pets. I also have time in between classes to walk or check in with pets. I spend lots of time outside and go on walks regularly and I’d love to bring pets along with me. I also can spend time with them in the clients home if that’s where they are more comfortable.
“Jennie was amazing with our cat while we were travelling and gave us the peace of mind that she was safe and well taken care of. We look forward to using Jennie again in the future!”
About: As a person who has been the primary care taker of my pets since I was 8, I know the right way to take care of animals and know how hard it can be to find quality care for our furry friends. With 2 cats of my own and with several previously owned dogs, I know I can provide excellent care to all kinds of animals! I also have a Veterinary Assisting degree, so also being able to alert owners of any health issues to be wary of is something I take seriously! Pet care is a daily task, as such I am able to do daily walks and be able to do other care tasks throughout the day so that your pet feels enriched and loved even when you’re away. I understand dog behavior to a good degree as I studied it while in school to earn my degree, so being able to safely walk a dog even if they are reactive is something I feel comfortable with.
“Monique was fantastic when she watched Stubbs and Atticus. She came by for a meet and greet before the sitting dates. She sent us updates and photos and the pups were in great spirits when we came home. We’ll definitely use her again in the future!”
“Ashlee did an amazing job with my two boys. She sent a lot of photos that made me so happy to see while I was away. I can tell from the pictures they really loved her. She asked appropriate questions when things came up, which I really appreciated. It made it so much less stressful to be away from my babies. I would recommend Ashlee to everyone and would definitely hire her again!”

“I actually thought I had already left one. But I’ll definitely reply again. Lindsey was very good with all the kitties. Finally was able to get the kitten to lose some of his shyness. She was always timely and sent pics of them in their spaces. I’d definitely like to use her again.”
About: Lifelong pet owner and animal intuitive. I have worked with all types of pets providing assistance with special care in addition to walks and general care. Care only provided in your home. At this time I do not have a pet companion but miss them dearly. Once I have an established routine in the area I will be in search of another furry walking companion. I am relocating back to the WNC / Landrum area after being a nomad for 5 years. I am available throughout the Saluda, Hendersonville and Landrum area and am doing human caregiving throughout the WNC area. If your dog agrees I am open to taking them on local hikes. Pet care in your home only; I have worked as a house sitter/pet sitter in NC for several years in addition to personal caregiver for 15+ years.
About: Caring for animals is something that runs in my family both my mother and my aunt are deeply involved in various rescues including but not limited to puppers, cats, even spiders of all shapes and sizes. We treat our fur babies like one of us and they are definitely part of the family. We will spend lots of time together walking through open fields and woods playing fetch if they are into those kinds of things I’m also ok with just sitting and sun bathing, we go fishing if the weather is nice. They will never have to worry about being alone or being forgotten or scared because I will be there any time they need. Lap dogs and cuddle buddies are always welcome !!
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was really young and always wanted to get into the field of working with animals. I’ve taken care of a variety of animals from dogs to bunnies to guinea pigs and almost all of them have lived a very long life. I’m always excited to see any animal and work with them no matter what kind they are. I look forward to seeing every animal that comes my way and taking care of them as if they wear my own. I am currently working a part-time job, but I hope to transition to make this my part-time job. I am available and home every day of the week except Sunday (when I make this job my only job) and I’m home almost every hour and I will always make time for your pet. Well, the yard is on a hill and not fenced. I do have one dog three years old very friendly to keep any animal company. And if your dog needs to be in a crate. I can very much do that.
About: I have two dogs and one cat who run my life! I love all types of animals! I love to go on walks often. I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 16 years old. It ranged from neighbors, friends, and people who recommended me to others. And I am easy to get in touch with. I love taking pictures animals being cute and will send them often! I will be available on weekdays to care for your animals. I have two dogs of my own and base a lot of my time around them. I have a big yard to keep the dogs safe and playing! I love to take hikes around DuPont and walks on the greenway. We have two dogs and a cat so navigating multiple pets is second nature.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Penrose
Lacie was so amazing during her drop-in visits with our cat! He requires twice-daily medication and she went above and beyond each visit to make sure he was well-cared for, happy, and healthy! We knew he was in great hands with Lacie, and her detailed entries and photographs at each check-in kept us up to date with how he was doing! I can’t say enough good things about Lacie and would definitely book her again!
Abagail was wonderful with our little Keller. He is pretty much blind and so is very careful when approached but he seems very comfortable with Abagail. She sends the cutest photos regularly and is very conscientious. She even brought in packages that were left at the door.
This is the second time Kristen has checked in on our fur babes, this time the dog too. All three are very happy and safe. Kristen asks great questions during the meet n greets and makes sure the animals are well taken care of according to any guidelines you share. She’s always sure to give them extra love too!

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.
