About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was a child. I’ve taken care of and handled anything from big dogs to newborn puppies, long-haired cats to barn kitties, rats, hamsters, gerbils, snakes, chickens, turtles and fish! I love every animal as if they are my own and strive to make them as happy, comfortable and loved as possible. My current schedule is extremely flexible. I always have Thursdays and Fridays open. When I do work, my shifts are only 4-6 hours at a time so I can be with your fur babies! I am well versed in animal body language. I have no issues with training, crating, and playing with many different kinds of pets! I enjoy giving your animals lots of love and attention but can also understand and respect when animals need their own personal space!
About: I absolutely love animals especially dogs and cats. They have been a part of my life since I was a little girl. I had 2 dogs Rusty and Bengie and 4 kitties Oliver, Emma, Joy and Cinnamon. Currently I have Cinnamon who is a Tortiseshell kitty and a black kitty named Joy. I have experience with feeding, cleaning litterboxes, walking and playing with my pets. I have a very flexible schedule. I am retiring from being a senior caregiving so my mornings, afternoons and evenings are open 7 days a week. I would treat your kitty or dog just like mine. I would approach them with a soft voice especially with timid and anxious ones. I would not push myself on them but let them come to me.
“Cassandra did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away! She followed all instructions and went above and beyond for the upkeep of the apartment. From the photos Cassandra sent, it seemed like my cat had a good time with her and I can tell she loves cats. I would definitely recommend Cassandra for your cat sitting needs:)”
“Kind, compassionate, extremely competent and professional. Marina provides exceptional care and I am grateful to entrust her with George’s care. She went above and beyond and is greatly appreciated!”
About: I’ve had several dog sitting jobs in the past and am looking for more!! I’ve grown up with two cats and being around my aunt and uncle’s two dogs so I have experience loving on pets and will treat yours like my own!!! I’m currently doing some part-time adult care for a neighbor as well as another part-time job. But my schedule is flexible and I’m open about what dates I am available and I am dedicated to being there for your pets!! I care for your pets by giving them lots of love and attention!! From fetch to walks to snuggles I will give them the attention they deserve and ensure their care and safety.
“Lauren is always amazing with my boy, I think after so many visits he’s seeing her as his friend not just someone that comes when “mom’s gone”. I appreciate her communication too! Always five stars”
“Abigail is super responsive and did a great job with our puppy. Our dog is working through separation anxiety so it was so nice to get pic updates. She was on time and I cannot speak highly enough about how responsive she was. Would recommend!”
About: With 12 years of experience, I provide daily dog care for all ages, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication routines, and house sitting. I grew up with a dog and volunteered at a humane society supporting daily checkups and adoptions. From Monday to Friday I am available to care for a dog or cat after 5:30pm On Saturday and Sunday I am available from 9am to 8pm I treat every pet as if they were my own. I focus on safety, consistency, and comfort by following routines, maintaining a clean environment, and giving lots of attention. I respect your homes, provide regular updates, and make sure pets feel secure, loved, and stress-free while in my care.
About: I've walked a lot of dogs! Some of my earliest experience was with my own childhood dogs. Then when I volunteered as a dog walker at seven star sanctuary in Saint Joseph. Some of my more recent has been walking my little brothers very excitable flat coat, Richard. I'm currently looking for work, so my schedule is open! I like to walk dogs since I can get in exercise while I work. I have a fenced yard that is shared with my duplex neighbor. They have kids and a small dog. I would take your dogs on a leash until I knew they'd be safe! I have plenty of space, but it'd be appreciated if you could bring their bed with them!
About: I’ve always had animals of my own, basically since I was old enough to walk. I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 13. I’m the go-to for friends and family when they need their babies cared for and I love every breed. I studied veterinary medicine for a number of years and have more recently begun to train dogs, as well. I work full-time but I make my own schedule. I also live just a few minutes away from my work and can pop back to my house when need be. I’m already taking care of our senior dog, our new puppy, and our two cats. I love being outside and taking the babies for walks. I have a fenced in yard as well as two other dogs and two other cats. I have a large crate as well as two portable enclosures and no shortage of extra bowls, blankets, toys, and towels. I live in a great neighborhood and there is a park a block away. It’s important to me that animals are well taken care of and I love spending extra time playing and snuggling with any babies I get to hang out with.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Plainfield Township
Maia went above and beyond what we asked and took wonderful care of our kitty. We really appreciated her detailed updates, including exactly what she did and how much our kitty ate, it was clear she genuinely cared about our kitty. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!
Very pleased! All the animals (1 dog and 2 cats) were well taken care of with daily updates and photos. Amanda went above and beyond the agreed upon plan with a carpet cleaning from one of the cats, cleaning food/water bowls, and messages for the elderly dog! Highly recommend!
Taylor was exactly what I was looking for in a cat sitter. Communicative and caring in what she does. As a first time rover user, Taylor put me at ease and updated me daily on how my cat was doing. She is new to a medicine and Taylor did a great job ensuring she took her pill daily. I cant recommend her enough to watch your pets!
Jennifer was so awesome! She agreed to watch PK last minute and was so patient and nice while I figured out scheduling. She sent me several photos and updates each time she visited and was very accommodating to my separation anxiety. Jennifer is the best and will def be using her services again!

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 .
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.

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 .
