“Jennifer and her daughter are responsible and truly love animals! They did everything I wrote in the notes. My cat liked them and even tried to lick them. They drove to my home immediately after I told them, through the camera, that my cat’s bowl was empty.”


“Adela was great with all my animals! I had her do drop in visits during my vacation. She was very communicative. It was nice knowing my pets were being taken care of and loved while I was away.”


About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’ve been providing pet care since November of last 2025 and truly enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners. Skills & Experience: Large Dog Handling: Comfortable walking dogs up to 80 lbs with a calm and controlled approach. For safety, I do ask that larger dogs are fully trained and well-behaved on leash. Time Management & Organization: Experienced in caring for multiple dogs at once while making sure each one gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Routine-Based Care: I stick closely to each pet’s routine to help them feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. Reliability & Attention to Detail: I’m dependable and attentive, always paying close attention to a pet’s behavior and needs. Exercise & Engagement: I provide structured 30-minute walks and make sure each visit includes both care and positive interaction. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect; making sure they feel happy and cared for while you’re away, and giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently an online student so i have a very flexible schedule! Im available in the mornings, earliest 10am, and the latest at 8pm. I take both pet safety and respect for your home very seriously. I always follow any instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications (if needed), and household preferences. I make sure doors, gates, and entry points are secure at all times, and I’m careful during walks and visits to keep pets safe and under control. In your home, I aim to be as respectful and tidy as possible; cleaning up after pets, keeping their areas neat, and leaving everything just as I found it. I also understand the importance of trust, so I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to provide updates so you feel confident while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, calm environment for your pets while also giving you peace of mind knowing your home and pets are being well cared for.

“Maria was a great sitter for my cat Ron. She was constantly providing updates and photos of my boy. Additionally, she ensured that Ron was kept comfortable and stress-free while I was away. I totally recommend and will definitely book again in the future!”

“Alana took wonderful care of our 15 month old lab/pit mix Brody. She visited 3 times a day for walks and feeding. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated with messages and photos. I could tell Brody was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I truly appreciated her kindness and professionalism, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Alana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Nathalie is an amazing person who clearly loves animals. My cat, who is usually scared of strangers, instantly accepted her. We felt very comfortable leaving Max, knowing Nathalie would visit him daily. She sent us his pictures and reports daily, which we truly appreciated. She followed all our instructions and took great care of our cat and our house. We will definitely rebook with Nathalie next time we are out of town.”

About: (just reactivated my account in 2026, new to Miami) I have volunteered and trained 3+ yrs in professional wildlife animal and rescue care. 14+yrs of raising my scrappy little Chihuahua, Cloe. 2+yrs with our rescue , Pongo. Attention to detail for each animal in my care. I prefer to be SMOTHERED in dog kisses. All dogs are allowed on the couch, bed, or any area in the house. Comfortable with simple grooming.

We will exercise in the attached "Bark Park" if weather permits; and we will definitely indulge in a night-night massage.

My apt is attached to a "bark park" for daily exercise. All doggys have free roam of my house. Dogs are allowed on the sofa and in bed for snuggles. I live to love all animals like Steve Irwin.
“I cannot recommend Stephanie enough! She took such amazing care of my cat, Aiko, while I was away. From the start, communication was smooth and professional. I received regular updates, and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Aiko can be a bit shy at first, but he clearly warmed up quickly thanks to the patience and care shown by Stephanie. When I returned, everything was spotless and Aiko was relaxed, happy, and well cared for. It’s clear that Stephanie genuinely loves animals and takes her job seriously. I’ll absolutely be booking her again in the future. Thank you for treating Aiko like your own!”

About: I have over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for my family pets and my own dogs, so animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also have more than 15 years of experience fostering and helping re-home dogs and cats. Through fostering, I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, gentle, and attentive to each animal’s unique personality, history, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets who may be shy, nervous, energetic, or still adjusting to new people and environments. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat that responsibility with the care and respect it deserves. My schedule is currently open for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday through Sunday, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. I am also available for boarding and will do my best to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. During walks and drop-ins, you can expect dependable care, clear communication, and updates so you know how your pet is doing. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, and companionship depending on your pet’s needs. For boarding, I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and any special instructions before their stay. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Guest pets have access to a private, air-conditioned room where they can lounge, relax, and sleep comfortably. The room has a cozy pullout couch, plenty of natural light, and a private entrance, creating a calm and comfortable space for pets to feel at ease. I also have a private fenced patio that is separate from my backyard, as well as a larger backyard area that guest pets can enjoy with supervision. This gives pets space to stretch, explore, and get fresh air in a safe environment. I can also crate your dog if needed or preferred, and I will always follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, routines, sleeping arrangements, medication, walks, and any safety precautions. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously.

Alexis is amazing. It was my first time using her and even with the meet and greet visit, she was so timely and kept me updated. This was my first time ever using her or rover—and I feel relief that I found someone so responsible and who truly loves animals—and is a cat lover. Will definitely use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,087 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Richmond Heights. 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 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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 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.
