“Grace did a stellar job taking care of my cat, B, while we were on vacation for a week. She played with her and loved on her during every visit, gave her fresh water, cleaned her cat box, made sure her automatic feeder was working properly, filled the bird feeder outside her window bed, and checked our mail. If there were questions, she asked me. She took great pictures of B. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone who needs a pet sitter. We will definitely use her again.”

“An extremely caring family. They took excellent care of our lovely pet and daily sent us photos of his wellbeing. Highly recommend for anyone going on family breaks and needs a safe place to look after their pet.”


About: My lifelong love for animals began growing up visiting farms, which taught me to be patient, gentle, and attentive to animal’s needs. I worked at an animal hospital for over a year, assisting veterinarians with administering medications to dogs and cats. I also handled the boarding and daily care of dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and geckos. I was trained to properly feed, monitor, bathe, and exercise over 100 pets per day. This hands-on medical and boarding experience allows me to provide a higher level of care, safety. I adore senior doggies and cats and the puppies and kittens are the funniest! I maintain a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive pet care. I am available in the evenings on Mondays and Wednesdays after 7 PM, have midday and evening availability on Tuesdays, and can provide care in the mornings and evenings on Thursdays and Fridays. I am fully available on weekends, which allows for extended care, drop-ins, and flexible scheduling. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my main focus is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My experience working in an animal hospital taught me how to carefully follow routines, notice small changes in behavior, and handle pets gently in their own space. I treat every home with respect and stick to each pet’s usual schedule and owners requests, whether that’s feeding, medications, litter care, or walks. I’m trained to give medications and I always take my time to make sure everything is done correctly and calmly. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, so I make sure to send updates, photos, and notes after visits. My goal is to keep pets relaxed and happy while giving pet parents peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is in caring hands.

“Ana took great care of my diabetic cat while I was at work! She is amazing at communication. Not to mention, she was able to accommodate my request at the last minute! Highly recommended!”

“Wyatt is a gem! My cat loves him and is always so well taken care of! I really appreciate his care and kindness as well as all the pictures and updates! Will definitely book again! Highly recommend!”

“Jeannette always does a great job of looking after the kittens, even if they are too skittish to accept pettings most of the time. You can tell she really cares about their well-being!”

“Olivia and her broth Wyatt took excellent care of my cats and my home. They made sure they had the food and water they needed, took care of their litter box and made sure the place was secured after each visit. I always look for Olivia and Wyatt now, when I need a reliable pet sitter. After many sessions, it's not even a question.”

“Bella was so caring with our cats, very communicative and compassionate! We loved seeing the pictures and updates, it’s obvious she’s incredibly passionate about animal care. We will absolutely be booking her again soon!”

“I feel so lucky to have found Katie! She got back to me right away about her availability and also addressed my concerns with helping to care for my senior dog. You can just sense Katie loves pups and her caring nature makes me feel confident that my dog will be well taken care of!”
“Cassie again was amazing! She was available on short notice for an emergency and was super flexible with our needs. She took great care of our three cats and we never worried about them when she was caring for them. We will continue to try and book her in the future!”
“Taylor has been our sitter for a while and she I trustworthy, cares for our pets like they are her own and always give her all while caring for our pets even when we had a tiny emergency. I highly recommend her services to anyone!”

“Emily and her husband are the best! They do drop in visits for our cat Lola while we are away, and we always feel like she is in great hands. They are very timely, clean, and send great Rover card updates. Lola is in great spirits when we return. We would strongly recommend them!”

“Hannah managed to coax our three shy cats out of their hiding places and eventually even got kisses from the boy cat. She kept us informed of her progress along the way to feline acceptance with emails, photos and new toys from them. As a house sitter, Hannah dealt with Verizon FiOS when our wifi went down by troubleshooting and meeting with the technician who was able to fix the problem. And she left the house cleaner than we left it! We (both humans and felines) look forward to calling on Hannah for our next vacation.”

“We’ve used Katrina a few times now and she is always reliable!! This recent weekend was a very last minute request and she was still able to accommodate. I also appreciate all of the pictures she takes of our little old man while we’re away!”

“Ashley took great care of my two (very needy) cats while I was gone for over a week. She was a good communicator, sent photos, and handled issues that came up (air conditioner went out). She also left the place very neat and tidy and watered my plant. Highly recommend her.”
About: I always had dogs and cats growing up since I was 6. I've taken care of dogs (walking, feeding, bathing, and boarding) for my friends, neighbors and family for at least 6 years mostly for medium and small dogs when they are away/out of town. My husband and I work full time from home so my schedule is flexible to provide any services such as drop-in, walks, day care and boarding either on daily basis or on your special occasions. We have a dog (medium size) at home and we would like to ensure that we give lots of affection and playtime to your fur babies. We live in a townhouse surrounding by many traits and dog parks. My husband and I will give your fur babies lots of affection and playtime, we’ll do our best to make them feel at home! Our guest pups usually sleep alongside with our own dog in their individual beds, either in the basement or living room areas. Also, when providing drop-in visits, or dog walking services, I will not only be taking care of your dogs, but I will also take care of your home by taking a little extra time before I leave to ensure everything’s secure, and the dog has what they need before you come back.
“Katherine did a great job helping my mom catch my cat to take him to a vet appointment. She was patient and definitely knew how to handle anxious and hard-to-handle pets. Thank you again, Katherine!”

“As always, Hieu and Anna took amazing care of my dogs! I received constant updates and photos about their drop in visit. Azula and Kenobi loved seeing their aunties!”

I booked rather last minute and thrilled that Mateo was able to accommodate m and my little beasties. He was incredibly communicative and checked in regularly. I felt so good knowing the beasties were in good hands. Will definitely try to work with him again!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best cat sitter I could have asked for! I’m very particular about my cats’ care, and I left detailed written instructions along with videos. She followed everything exactly, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She even brushed my long-haired cats, which I really appreciated and wasn’t something I expected. When I got home, they were happy, well cared for, and the whole experience was completely stress-free. It was obvious they had been looked after with genuine care and attention to detail. I would absolutely trust her with my cats again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive pet sitter!

Emily did a wonderful job dropping in to visit our 2 cats while we were away for a long weekend. She is very responsive and sent detailed updates and photos for each day so I felt assured they were being taken care great care of. Would love to use her again for future trips!

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.

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 Meet & Greet .
