“Fantastic sitter! I had to leave my kitties home for the holiday weekend, and Andrea came to my rescue! She conducted morning and evening check ins on my kitties. She went above and beyond in ensuring my kitties were well taken care of. In addition to the responsibilities I’ve outlined (which she conducted very well), she has the perspective of a pet owner herself, so she’d text me during visits if I would also like her to trim nails, sweep the area around the litter box, etc. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your furbabies as her own, look no further than Andrea!”
“Super friendly person and quick with her responses. I definitely feel like my cat is safe with her & I’m comfortable with her in my home while I’m gone. I’ll definitely be booking again :) !!!”
“This was an excellent experience Katherine was on time every day and Oliver was well taken care of. All drop in visits lasted the full half an hour. I highly recommend Katherine she was amazing.”
About: I have had years of experience with dogs and cats Including experience working in an animal hospital as well as a kennel, and living in a multi dog household myself. I have lots of free time on weekends and holidays to make sure your pet gets the care needed, as well as time to provide care during the week days I have done lots of pet sitting in clients homes before and personally feel that is the best way to keep your pet’s comfortable. Yours pets comfort is impotent to me.
“Great as always! My scaredy cats appreciate her attention to detail and looking out for them even if they hide and don't say so! Cassie notices the nuances of cat life, box issues, and even the temperature of the house and keeps me informed.”
“Was absolutely amazing with my kitty cats they fell in love with her the minute she walked through the door. She made sure the water was full, and the litter box was clean each and every time she was there. Will use her again and again.”
“Karina did a great job with our kitties. We could tell she was the one by the way she approached each of them when she came by in our pre-visit. She kept us in the loop while we were gone and was prompt and complete during her visits. We'll use her again if available for our future trips away.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets and fur babies most of my life. My parents were farmers before they married and they raised me with all kinds of animals around me. Had chickens gooses ducks dogs cats … later had my own. I’m currently working part time. I’m also my daughter’s homeschool teacher. So I have plenty of time for taking care of a pet from time to time. I live in a rent a house but have no fenced yard. As tte rules for tenants are no pets policy I am currently not able to board any fur babies. I’ll update as soon as possible if any changes occur.
About: I am extremely passionate about animals and have multiple years of experience with all types of animals including insects, reptiles, and birds. I love to meet new pets and their people! I have a very flexible schedule and will work with my clients to figure out how we can make your pet as comfortable as possible. I am usually ready for a short notice drop in or stay. We will discuss what needs your pet has and how I can ensure they are happy while you are gone. If they have a favorite toy, treat, or even a movie they like watching, let me know and I will make sure they get what they need!
“Victoria did an amazing job and took care of all of our fur babies and even cuddled with them. Thank you Victoria we appreciate you and look forward to our next trip and you taking care of our fur babies”
About: I have a heart for animals. We travel so I never wanted to get a dog, but I would love to spend time with yours! https://www.rover.com/sit/tonim13904 I am looking for a new career that I would love. Flexible schedule! Available weekends and most holidays! I won't just check in/walk your animal. I will make sure they get attention and feel loved 🥰 I will respect the owners rules when it comes to treats (or anything else). I grew up with the "leave things better than you found them" mentality.
About: Nice to meet you! I’m Lily, a 19 year old in college who loves animals and has had all kinds of pets my whole life! I’ve been caring for my senior puppy since I was 8 years old and previously worked at a doggy daycare. I have tons of experience with cats as well. I have extensive knowledge on animal behavior and training. I’ve been studying all kinds of animals since I learned to read and I love spending time with my pets and enriching their lives as much as I can! My schedule is super open right now as I’m only doing online college! I’m free to check in with your buddies or petsit long-term pretty much whenever! I have lots of experience dealing with difficult dogs and aggressive behavior from working in doggy daycare. I am a very quiet but friendly person! I am happy to interview with you or chat as much as you need to ensure you feel comfortable with me caring for your pets. I understand that pets are beloved family members and you wouldn’t want to leave them with just anyone.
About: What makes me stand out as a pet sitter is my dedication to personalized care and my deep understanding of each pet’s unique needs. Unlike others, I offer tailored attention, ensuring every pet feels comfortable and loved. My extensive experience, reliability, and commitment to creating a safe and comforting environment set me apart. I go above and beyond to provide exceptional care, giving you confidence and peace of mind while you’re away. As a work-from-home professional, pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. Being home allows me to provide constant attention, timely feedings, and regular playtime for pets. My flexible schedule ensures I can cater to each pet’s needs throughout the day, offering a comforting and engaging environment. This setup allows me to be highly responsive and attentive, ensuring pets receive the best care possible. We will go on walks in the morning, lunch, and evenings (being mindful of the heat on their feet’s!) In my home, I provide a safe and cozy environment for pets, with a consistent routine for feeding, playtime, and exercise. I offer personalized attention and keep everything clean and hazard-free. I’m also prepared for emergencies to ensure your pet’s well-being at all times.
About: Starting at age 9 I raised pigs on my grandpas farm and showed them in the fair. I then decided to become vegan at age 13 after realizing the brutal way animals were treated. Last year I enrolled as a foster parent for the local animal shelter. I fostered a sweet, active pit bull named Rebel for two months. Then I fostered a few kittens. I now have my cat that’s grown up with me since I was 4. Unfortunately I can’t commit to having my own dog right now which is why I am on Rover. I have also fostered a kitten from the street that needed to be bottle fed and kept warm. I have open availability to pet sit as I am in the process of finding a job. I can start at 8 am and work till 8pm. I give plenty of pet scratches, it is just as much for me as it is for them. I value pets health, and I enjoy seeing animals get proper exercise and good nutrition. I make sure the pets in my care are in good health.
About: I love dogs and have been around them my entire life. I have had family dogs since I was 8 years old. I now own a 3 and a half year old english bulldog/pug mix who is super friendly and loves to be around other dogs! I also own a 4 year old german shepherd, who is also super friendly and loves to play. I do live in a house with a fenced year for plenty of room to run around. I have plenty of toys to play with, but you are welcome to provide your own! I do request that you provide their food and treats. I work remotely giving me the ability to be able to be attentive to your animal and have flexibility. I am free on mornings, late afternoons and evenings. I have a good sized yard for the dogs to play. I want every dog to feel the least amount of disruption/stress, so I try to ensure their typical daily routine is followed when staying with me.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Port Richey
This was the first time I have had to find someone to check in on my cat, due to this being the first time I have not had family close by. I am relieved to know that Rada is in the area and available. She does such a great job and kept me up to date on how the cat was doing. I completely recommend her services.
I always have peace of mind every time I leave Selina and Moki. I've been using Rover and the same lady, Brianna, and she's been amazing! She puts up and follows my list of instructions and would send me photos and videos every day during the duration of my vacation or time away. I strongly recommend Rover, and most especially, Brianna.
Lisa was awesome as always! Our kitties love her visits, and we can really tell she loves our kitties. ❤️ We know that we don't have to worry about a thing when Lisa cares for our babies. She is so kind & sweet, and provides many cute videos and pics with each visit. Thank you thank you thank you Lisa!
Our deepest thanks to Bethany! I was so afraid to leave my cat Red girl alone, we have never left her. Bethany came and went over every detail I had and made me so comfortable. I knew Red was in great hands. We received pictures and messages. I wouldn’t want anyone else to take care of my pets in future trips! Excellent job I wish I could leave a 100 stars for Bethany’s review.

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.

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 .

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 .
