About: I have loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets taught me how important patience, kindness, and attention are when caring for them. For years, family members and friends have trusted me to look after their pets, giving me valuable experience with feeding, playtime, walks, companionship, and making sure each pet feels safe and loved while their family is away. I especially adore Yorkies and Maltese, and I have a sweet dog of my own named Snowbella. Being a pet owner helps me understand how much trust it takes to place your furry family member in someone else's care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the time to learn their personality, routine, favorite activities, and individual needs. I also have more than two years of childcare experience and am CPR and First Aid certified. These experiences have helped me become responsible, dependable, patient, and attentive. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, relaxing cuddles, a walk, or simply a loving companion, I will make sure they receive thoughtful care and plenty of affection. My goal is to help every pet feel happy, comfortable, and right at home in my care. As a full-time online college student who is also working toward my CNA license, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to stop by for feedings, walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I will carefully follow any routine or special instructions you already have in place so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I care for my own dog with the same love and attention, walking her five times a day, feeding her three times a day, and always keeping her bed and surrounding area fresh and clean. Your pet will receive dependable, gentle care and plenty of affection while you are away. I take pride in keeping my own pet's space clean, fresh, and comfortable by regularly cleaning her bed, bowls, toys, and surrounding area. I understand that a tidy environment is an important part of keeping pets happy and healthy. I will care for your dog's space with even more attention, following your cleaning routine and making sure everything is left neat and organized. Your dog will always have fresh food and water, a cozy place to rest, and a clean area where they can feel safe and loved.
About: I have had and cared for animals my whole life, lots of dogs, cats, rodents and even hermit crabs! Additionally, I highly value your pet's wellbeing and having fun!! I am a senior in college with my classes being online, additionally I work part-time in retail. My schedule is highly flexible and I can give my full attention to your animal friends! I do not offer care in my home, however I will treat yours with the same level of respect and regard as my own. From making sure doors are closed/locked to tidying up on longer care sessions (if requested), I'm Ms. Get it done.
About: I’ve been passionate about caring for dogs my entire life. Growing up with a dog at home since birth taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and consistency in pet care. Beyond that, I had the incredible experience of assisting in raising a guide dog, which deepened my understanding of training, responsibility, and the unique bond between humans and dogs. These experiences have given me both the skills and the heart to provide exceptional care and create a safe, loving environment for any dog. I am currently a graduate school student with an extremely flexible schedule. I have large gaps in the afternoons with many days with no class. I would be able to accommodate lunch walk/bathroom breaks as well as morning and evening check ins if needed. I prioritize caring for pets exactly how their owners prefer. I follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication, and any special needs to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure. In my home, I provide a safe and loving environment, and I’m happy to accommodate their usual routines as much as possible. My apartment also features designated dog play areas that are available for use, giving dogs plenty of space to exercise and socialize. Whether in your home or mine, my goal is to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I grew up around animals and have taken care of them as well. I help my friend with foster cats. I have experience with bottle feeding kittens and puppies. I'm currently currently unemployed so I'm currently available at any and all times. I can walk dogs, brush cats and dogs if needed. I can play with the pets as well to help keep them active and happy. I'm currently unemployed, keeping me available all the time. I do internship at a stables in the mornings, the timings vary. I'm available on the weekends too and can do overnights if needed. I make it my top priority to make sure all pets are safe, feel trusted, and comfortable. I will do whatever means necessary to provide safety and comfort to your furbabies.
“Morgan has been nothing but kind and understanding. I felt safe leaving my kitty with her. She went above and beyond to make sure my baby was safe while I was gone. Thank you Morgan!!! and thank you Rover for being a platform where pet parents can find a trustworthy person to care for our fuzzy babies💚”

About: I’ve raised my dogs from puppies to seniors. I have experience with dogs that are reactive and might yell a little when new people come to their home. I love large dogs, especially ones that think they fit in your lap! I work from home, part-time, and with flexible hours so pet care fits easily into my weekly schedule. I do have regular health appointments, but those are known well in advance for scheduling. Up front, I am physically disabled; I can take your dog out to use the bathroom, but I cannot take them on proper walks. Everything else is fair game. Your dog will still get lots of play time, treats, cuddles, and attention while I care for them :) As for cats, don’t worry, I can still scoop the litter box!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Riverview
Shanaia was wonderful! She was able to accommodate our last-minute booking and was very responsive. She kept me updated with the visit and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated! I can’t recommend her enough, and will definitely be requesting her again!

Genesis was absolutely amazing from the beginning. We have two cats and they both warmed up quickly around her. She sent updates with photos and did everything we asked from her. We are so happy we found someone, who can check on our cats, when we are out of town. We'll definitely reach her out next time!! Thank you Genesis for your help one more time 😺😊

Nakisha was so nice and easy to work with! I reached out to her last minute on a holiday weekend and she was able to take the booking and schedule a meet-and-greet all within a short time frame. While we were gone, she updated us every day with pictures and description of our cat’s attitude/well being. I felt completely at ease with her handling the care of our cat and will definitely be using her from here on out!! Hiring Nakisha is a blessing for your pet care

We couldn’t be happier with our pet sitter! They were reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring with our pet. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pet was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

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.

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.
