About: Hi! My name is Ava, and I’m so excited to be joining Rover! I am currently a college student studying early childhood education, and am so grateful to have this opportunity to further support my education! I have always had animals in the house growing up, and have personally helped to raise three dogs and two cats! I have experience taking care of senior animals, as well as administering oral medication! I genuinely enjoy taking care of and loving animals, and am looking forward to meeting yours. Thank you so much for considering me! I am currently a full-time student and have a part-time job, but I am fully available on the weekends, as well as nights on week days! I will take care of your pets as if they are my own! I feel that the most important part of pet-sitting is showing them that you care, and that they are not alone! To combat this, I will give them all lots of attention, and make sure to follow any schedules that the pet-parents set out for me!
About: I have a Bachelor’s degree in Zoology and professional experience as a veterinary technician and animal shelter staff member. Because of my background, I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments—from energetic puppies to shy rescues and senior dogs. I am also fully experienced in administering oral medications, eye/ear drops, and injections if your pup has medical needs. I have a flexible, independent schedule and am available every day of the week for overnight house sitting. I can easily maintain your pet’s normal feeding and walking routine, providing potty breaks every 2 to 4 hours during the day so they never feel lonely or rushed. When caring for pets in your home, safety and respect for your space come first. I double-check all doors, gates, and leashes, strictly follow your house rules, and keep a close eye out for any sudden changes in appetite or behavior using my vet tech training. You’ll get regular photo updates and daily check-ins for total peace of mind.
About: I have been helping my parents with their pets for the past 15 years. At the age of 13 I was given my own puppy, which helped me understand the responsibility that it takes to care for animals. I pride myself in being a trustworthy and caring person, who loves to spend time with animals. I currently am in school for nursing so my schedule varies. I try to find free time every week to get outside and move, which is why I am looking for the opportunity to spend time with animals while I do this. I have found that animals tend to respond better to calm and collected persons, so I pride myself on staying calm under pressure. Many of the families that I have pet sit for in the past complimented my patience and caring nature.
About: I have about one year of experience caring for dogs and have spent time looking after dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’m calm, patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs. I’m comfortable helping with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and keeping them company. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routine to make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work during the week, but I’m fully available on weekends and have plenty of time to give your cat the care and attention they need. I’m happy to work around their usual feeding, playtime, and care routine. I always make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and respected in their own space. I follow their usual feeding and litter box routines, keep their area clean, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and let them come to me at their own pace. I also make sure doors and windows are secure and follow any special instructions from their owner.

I have have a fenced in yard with an indoor / outdoor Holland lop bunny. I consider myself athletic so long walks work out great
“Both the danes were taken care of while I was gone for the day, really appreciate Skye being so attentive, communicative, and patient with the dogs. Will definitely be having her over again!”
About: I have consistently sat for a variety of pets over the past ten years for over ten families. I have the ability to sit for multiple dogs/cats at once while providing plenty of TLC.

I currently work for University of Michigan and have the ability to work from home if you would like me to provide extra TLC for your pet! I am a reliable 32-year-old single girl who loves spending her free time caring for animals. I am very attentive and patient to any pet in my presence and love making them feel loved and happy. I have two kitties of my own - Banjo and Daisy! I love to snuggle with them and always make sure their litter boxes are cleaned and they are well fed and cared for. This goes for every other pet I watch as well! I tend to other’s pets as I would my own because that’s the kind of person I would want watching over my pets.
About: I worked at an animal shelter for about a year and a half, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I became familiar with dogs’ and cats’ diets, learned how to understand their body language, and gained experience administering medications when needed. I’ve also owned dogs for most of my life and have always believed them to be incredibly loyal and loving companions. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary assistant program. Most of my classes are online, with the exception of Fridays, when I attend classes on campus. I am generally available Monday through Thursday for most of the day, as long as I am given advance notice. I am also available on weekends when needed, with advance notice. My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to treat your pets the same way! I always want to make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while they’re with me. I also enjoy going on trail walks or taking long walks in general, so I’d be happy to have some furry company along the way.
About: I grew up owning dogs, so I understand routines, patience, and consistency. I’m attentive, reliable, and focused on providing calm, respectful care tailored to each dog. I work at a hospital and am typically available after work on weekdays. I’m off at 3:30 PM and home by 4:30 PM, making evenings ideal for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. My weekend availability may vary as my work schedule changes. I follow pets’ routines and their care instructions closely, providing walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship while respecting their space, maintaining cleanliness, and keeping owners informed.
“Jaime was everything her reviews say she is. Responsible, considerate, caring, and kept the house perfect. She sent photos and/or videos daily. I was able to go on vacation, and not worry about my animals. I will absolutely have her house/pet sit again. Very happy with how the whole process worked, and my animals were very comfortable with her. Even my shy one, showed herself. Thank you Jaime!”
“Peyton provided drop in visits for my elderly Shar Pei for a 10 day vacation. She is priceless. Lots of communication, photos & videos. Yoda loved her.

She did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was away on vacation. She was reliable, communicated well, and gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable 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.

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.
