Ana was super responsive and reliable. She sent us pictures and gave us updates on any details worth noting. I will definitely book her again for future visits. My dogs loved the attention she gave them.

Bianca went above and beyond taking care of my 3 dogs while we were in a week long vacation. I never had to worry about how they were doing or that they were being taken care of. I got great daily reports and pictures too!

This was the first time I used Rover, and I was so nervous. The second Ella set foot in my house I felt at ease (which not an easy thing to do). I love the photos from every visit. Already booking my trip with Ella.

About: Having had dogs my whole life, they’ve always been my favorite animal and a huge part of my life. I love spending time with them and providing care, whether it’s offering companionship, administering medication, or comforting anxious pets. Pet walking and watching allows me to share my love for dogs while giving them the attention and care they deserve. Your pup will be in loving and experienced hands! I am currently only working part-time so I will have plenty of time to attend to your pups! I have a very nice free schedule. As a lifelong dog owner, I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. In clients’ homes, I maintain their routine, ensure regular feeding, walks, playtime, and provide companionship. For walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and engagement, giving dogs the attention they need. Whether at home or on a walk, I treat every pet like my own!

OMG...Trinity is awesome!! If you need a reliable and caring dog sitter...look no further! I could not have asked for a better sitter for our Chloe! Trinity followed our directions to a tee. She even took the initiative to handle certain matters on her own for the benefit and comfort of our pet! Trinity kept me updated daily and sent pictures of Chloe so I didn't have to wonder how she was doing. I will definitely use Trinity again...and, so should you!! Thanks, again, Trinity...

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies for the past 10 years now even have 2 of my own. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their precious babies, walk, feed, bathe, play, and even stay with them. I’m currently working part-time and in school Monday- Thursday for half the day so I have plenty of time to take care of your precious fur baby(babies). I am available anytime during the weekends, weekdays would have to be discussed in advance. I commute to my clients house to take care of their fur babies. Clients typically leave instructions if needed otherwise I feed the dog 1-2 times a day, potty breaks, walks, park play if that is something my client is up for and lot of snuggles, pets and love.

About: Hi, I’m Kaylee! I’m based in Rockwall and I live with four dogs, so I understand better than most what different personalities, energy levels, and quirks look like and I meet every pet exactly where they are. I have a background in healthcare and just finished my graduate degree in nutrition, so I’m not exaggerating when I say I take animal wellness seriously. I’m completely comfortable with medications, special feeding schedules, dietary needs, or any specific instructions you leave, following care protocols is genuinely second nature to me. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life, and I know how much peace of mind matters when you hand your pet off to someone. My goal is always to send you home (or to work, or on your trip) feeling totally at ease. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy and personality, not just a checkbox. Drop-ins are never rushed; I stay, I play, I make sure your pet feels loved. House sitting means your home and your pet both get my full attention and care. Expect photos, videos, and updates throughout every visit because you shouldn’t have to wonder how they’re doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m currently in a flexible period between positions, so I have a lot of availability right now, including weekends and most weekdays. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with regular clients and their pets, so don’t hesitate to reach out even if your needs are recurring or ongoing! Since I offer walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I’m coming to your pet in their own space, which I think is one of the best things for an animal’s comfort and routine. I treat every client’s home with complete respect and care. I’m experienced with following detailed instructions, administering medications, and handling pets of varying temperaments. Your pet stays in their familiar environment, their routine stays intact, and you get someone with a healthcare background making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away.

About: I grew up with all types of breeds of furry baby’s I love and enjoy watching over them. My kids now enjoy it as well. they take each other energy out! We have a pet of our own and have had pets over the years so our routine of watching over three babies is on a daily we have had from 4 to 3 to 2 to one pet at a time so it’s not any different to our daily routines of potty breaks play time etc. I offer at my home care as I have a fenced yard plenty of backyard space and a spacious home i am home most of the time as I work from home . taking care of your fairy baby would not be a problem in My Home. Of course as long as our home works for you as well as our pets getting along and us as well. 🐾 Pet care is a big part of my daily routine! Since I work from home and have a super flexible schedule, taking care of furry babies is a breeze for me. They bring so much joy and love to my home! I grew up with furry babies, so I treat every pup that comes to my home like my own. I ensure they receive the same love and affection they would get at home. Additionally, I always follow the owner's requests and rules to provide the best care possible.

About: I’ve raised all kinds of pets from newborns, adopted, and elderly. They deserve attention and care just like humans and I strive to do just that. I work Sat-Tues 7a-5p and off during the week. I’m able to swap days with 48 hour notice. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾 I am not currently a pet parent so your animal(s) will have my full and undivided attention. I’m empathetic and know when I need a break, so do they!

About: I have worked with animals my whole life. I absolutely adore animals, any animals! I use to work with my aunt at the clinic she works at helping her care, feed, water, clean and play with the animals that would board there. I also help her with the animals that she fosters. I do lots of research on animals and learn how to handle them and care for them. I am pretty acknowledged with animals. I know different types of breeds and their behaviors and the care they need. I would be an awesome candidate to care for your animals because I would love and treat them as my own and put their needs above mine, it would be a dream to care for any and all of your animals! Please don't hesitate to ask me anything! I am available anytime to help you and your animals! I absolutely love caring for animals and it’s all I want to do! I have a pretty flexible schedule at the moment. I live in an apartment that is fenced in and on the bottom floor so your pet will be very safe! I do home visits as well!

About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,682 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Poetry. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Poetry. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
