“Claudia is a phenomenal pet sitter! She went above and beyond with in-home visits for my dogs, ensuring they were not only well-cared-for but also happy and relaxed. Claudia provided regular updates and photos. I could tell my dogs absolutely adored her. I highly recommend Claudia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Five stars all the way!”
“Karien was great with our two dogs! She was on time, dependable, thorough in her notes and always stayed for the designated time. The photo and videos updates were SO VERY appreciated and a highlight for us while on vacation… we woke up each morning to multiple photos and videos of our pups. I cannot recommend Karien enough. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.”
“Absolutely the best!! Taylor takes very good care of my cats when I’m away! More than just the basics of food, water, and litter boxes, but also brushes and plays with them. Very reliable and good vibes for my nervous cat.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the combination of reliability, patience, and personalized care I bring to every pet and family I work with. I treat every animal like they’re my own, paying close attention to their routines, comfort, and personality so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I make time in my schedule to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to following each pet’s normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and house rules. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners always know their pets are safe and happy! Safety is always my top priority. I carefully supervise pets during walks and playtime, keep environments clean and secure, and make sure pets are never put into stressful or unsafe situations.
“Hope did a fantastic job checking in on our two cats! She communicated well and handled our boys’ particular meal routines with ease. She also took the sweetest pictures! We will absolutely be calling her back.”
“So glad I found Abby!! She took care of my cat so well and calmed this anxious cat mom with regular updates and pictures! I’ll definitely use her the next time I need a sitter!”
About: I have owner various pets throughout my life and there has never been a time that I have not had an animal in my house. We relocated to the USA two years ago, and have recently adopted a 1 year old Cavapoo. I am currently not working, and my husband works from home, so there is usually someone at home. My kids do take part in sports, so I usually use their practices as outings for the pets I watch and take them along. If you are not comfortable witb this, please let me know. Unfortunately no aggressive breeds are permitted at my home. I am happy to come to your home to spend time with your pets, giving cuddles and taking them for walks in safe neighborhoods. I do not have pets at my home so I am able to take care of your small pets at my home. I have a fenced garden area for potty breaks.
“Penny was awesome! She really put my mind at ease and we were so thankful to be able to do a meet and greet before we left for the weekend. We’ve never had a pet sitter before and I wasn’t sure how one of my dogs would react. Both my pups were happy when we got home and it’s so nice to know that we can go places without worrying about how we are going to work coverage for the dogs.”
“Daniella was amazing! She was super communicative, reliable, and clearly cared so much about my dog. I loved the updates and photos—it gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I got back. I already booked with her again and highly recommend her!”
“You would be mistaken to not use Katie for your pets! Right before our scheduled booking, we had a medical event with one of our dogs. We explained the situation to Katie and she handled it perfectly. We felt so much more comfortable knowing Katie was watching him when we couldn’t. We will definitely be using Katie in the future.”
About: I used to work at Trophy Club Animal Hospital from 2022 to 2024. I have been pet sitting since 2023 for people and family friends around the area and they really trust me with their pets due to my vet experience. I am about to start my junior year of college at Texas Christian University and will be living at home to commute to campus for classes. I am available to house sit while in the fall semester. I currently work at ASI gymnastics in Keller MTWF night and Saturday mornings. I am widely available for pet sitting during the entire week When housesitting I will feed and give water as well as medication if need to the animal. I will also play with them and take them on walks if requested. I also give them ample time outside to go potty.
“Jessica has been amazing—very responsive and a true lifesaver when we had to quickly find a sitter for Ham. I’m so glad everything worked out and I would highly recommend her.”
“Sarah was great!! I had a busy week of travel and she was a life saver to stop by and take care of my Frank and do drop ins to feed and walk him. Pictures and notes on the visit were great.”
About: I love all dogs and Gods creatures. I have been around animals all my life. I used to sit outside as a kid on my grandmas porch giving the stray cats attention. If anyone in my family had a dog I would find myself on the floor spending quality time with the dog. I also have a special place in my heart for elderly dogs. I want them to be comfortable and happy. I work part time from home, so I have plenty of time to give care and love to your dog. I can also take them for walks if they need exercise! I have a fenced in back yard for your dog to run around and have potty breaks. I can make a cozy spot at bedtime for your pet if you are able to provide their crate. I will make sure they are fed, safe and happy.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Roanoke
Lauryn took incredible care of our cat for a little over three weeks. We know our cat wasn't the easiest at first with her injections, and we are so grateful to Lauryn and her husband for stepping up, trying different things, and finding a creative way to handle an elderly cat safely. It gave us total peace of mind knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. Thank you for going above and beyond. We highly recommend Lauryn!
Hannah was amazing with our two dogs and cat! She took such great care of everyone while we were away and kept us updated with messages and pictures the whole time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We’ll definitely be booking Hannah again!
I am always super anxious about leaving my pets but Michaela gave me such peace of mind. She really went above and beyond to take care of anything they needed while I was gone, and my 3 boys loved her so much. I will be rebooking for future trips if possible!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Roanoke. On Rover:

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
