“Lesly was amazing! She took great care of my cat, and didn’t bat an eye at the health issues my cat’s been having and the creative ways we were having to work around them. Lesly was super proactive and helpful, I would definitely ask for her to watch her again.”
“Vicki is fantastic! This is the second time that she's pet sat for me, and I'm so thankful that she was able to do so over a major holiday. She not only attended to my cat's needs, she also took the time to shower him with love and attention. It's obvious that he adores her! I feel so much better about going out of town knowing that he is in safe hands.”
About: Hi there! I'm a former veterinary technician with over 5 years of hands-on experience in both general practice and emergency veterinary medicine. From routine check-ups to urgent care, I've seen it all—and I bring that same calm, compassionate approach to every pet I meet. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I've owned both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and I’m currently the proud pet parent of two sweet pups: Maggie, a lovable Golden Retriever, and Sally, a playful Goldendoodle. They keep life exciting—along with my two amazing kids! Now working full-time as an auditor, I still miss the daily interaction with animals, which is why I love offering pet care through Rover. Whether it's walks, playtime, or just a little TLC while you're away, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and comfortable with pets of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. I’d love to meet your furry family member and help give them the care and attention they deserve! I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM, but I’m available for: Evening Walks & Drop-In Visits on weekdays after 4:00 PM Weekend Walks, Drop-Ins & Overnight Stays — fully available Fridays after 4:00 PM through Sunday evening Holiday Availability upon request I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and will always communicate clearly to ensure your furry friend gets the care and attention they need! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and explore under close supervision. Inside my home, there’s a dedicated, pet-friendly area set up to ensure a calm and secure environment, complete with cozy resting spots, pet gates, and plenty of enrichment. My home is fully pet-proofed, and I can easily accommodate pets who are crate trained or have specific routines. I’m also comfortable administering medications or caring for pets with special needs, thanks to my experience as a veterinary technician. Before any stay or service, I offer meet & greets to ensure your pet feels comfortable with me and my home—and to give you peace of mind. Whether your pet is outgoing or shy, I’ll treat them with the love and patience they deserve. Your furry family member will be cared for like one of my own!
About: I've dabbled in walking dogs before, I've cared for many dogs in my life time. In highschool I cared for all kinds of live stock. I have my own mini dachshund at home who I love! I am a stay at home mom and I homeschool 4 daughters. We go on walks multiple times a day to walk the dog and also find reprieve from homeschool. I have a fenced in yard, a large crate if needed and a home the dogs are welcome. I have a car so we have access to emergency care if that were ever needed. We have a park near by and lovely walkable streets.
About: I’ve always grown up around all different types of animals from dogs and cats to snakes and fish so I have had lots of practice. I have had many family members, family friends and friends of my own ask for help and I’m always so happy to do so!! I am currently taking an online class for college so I am available almost any time and any day. I cannot do Saturday’s because I live with a toddler so I stay home and visit with family on the weekend, but other than that I am free, so why not spend it with cuties!? I always keep up with the animals that are in my care I always make sure I’m paying attention to what they eat, how much they are eating, making sure they have water at all times, I make sure to take them on at least 2-3 walks a day depending on how long they are in my care! I also make sure to provide them some fun and playtime so they are not alone all day or in a kennel cooped up all day either.
“Julia did a wonderful job with our four fur babies! They are all rescues and do not usually take to strangers but they loved Julia. That is all I needed to know about her. If they take to her like that, she is alright in my book!”
“Aziza took great care of my cat! She followed all the instructions I left her. She was very sweet with him and spent a lot of time playing with him and brushing him. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout her visits, which I really appreciated. It was her first time caring for him, so I was very happy to see him so comfortable! I will definitely be requesting her services again!”
About: I have taken care of not only dogs and cats but pretty much anything that you can legally have as a pet, and I have a passion for learning each animals unique care! I can care for your pets at any time at the moment! Most often I will be free in the afternoon. Mornings and midday will depend. I will open up boarding when I finally move out of my apartment, but for now I will take care of your pets as if they were my own, exactly how you tell me to.
About: I have taken care of cats all ages and sizes and have become familiar with what they need/want on a daily basis, and enjoy being around cats in general I work evenings and nights so i have plenty of extra time to pet sit during the day, as far as days of the week go i am extremely flexible I treat everyone’s pet as if it were my own, making sure they are well fed, comfortable, healthy and getting the daily exercise they need
“Sage once again took beautiful care of my sweet Grace! Sage is loving, attentive and reliable. Importantly, she is tuned into nuances of what little adjustments could benefit Grace. We are lucky to have her! I recommend her unequivocally!”
“Lilly watched my cat on a super last minute request! My cats usually very upset when we leave here for more than a day but after arriving home she seemed so happy! Would definitely book again”
About: I’ve been around and taken care of pretty much any animal under the sun for all my life. I’ve had many people entrust me to care for their furry (or scaly!) babies while they were away, and I’ve loved every experience. i’m currently a college student, so I usually have time during the day to check in on your pets when I don’t have classes! Let me know how many times a day you’d like me to come see your pets and I will do my best to make it happen! I will make sure your pets get plenty of play time to get their energy out! I also know anxiety can be high among animals when their owners are gone, so I’ll be sure to shower them with affection too.
“I can assure Samantha is the person who will best take care of your pet very caring and loving. She was been very kind, professional and flexible with my inquiries even last minute. Your pet will be perfectly safe with her. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring and knowledgeable person.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 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.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
