“Annabelle did such a wonderful job taking care of Stella and Adrianne in my home! Adrianne is 19 and needs medication every day, and Annabelle was so dependable about giving her medication and even taking the extra time to encourage her to eat. Both girls received lots of love, attention, and care while I was away. The pictures and updates she sent were so reassuring and made me feel confident that they were happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Annabelle and would happily have her care for Stella and Adrianne again ♥️♥️”
About: Hello, I’m Sarah and I am a dog groomer at a pet hotel and day camp! I have been a pet owner my whole life! Right now I have two dogs (Maya and Echo) Echo my Dalmatian is deaf. I have two cats (Mystique, and Gamora) two chinchillas (Loki and Thor) and a fish tank! They are all members of the family. I had childhood pets my whole life and working as a dog groomer inside a pet hotel gives me a lot of experience in animal care. I have been cat sitting regularly for a friends with two senior cats who take medication and used to have a personal dog who needed to take daily medication as well! Since I do have a day job that is 9-5 or whenever I am done for the day. I can only accept early morning and evening drop in visits on the days that I am working.

I am available for overnight dog sitting any day as long as your pets are ok home alone while I am working.

About: Northeast Ohio Native! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for many different types of pets. I understand that dogs need time outside, walks and plenty of attention to keep them happy and healthy. I also understand that cats have their own personalities they love their playtime, but they also appreciate their independence and quiet time. No matter their personality or routine, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll be right by their side, providing companionship and the care they deserve! All animal photos in my gallery are pets I have lived with or cared for within the past three years, except for Sasha the Giraffe I had the opportunity to feed while at the San Diego Zoo! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved, comfortable and cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attention, walks and playtime. I treat every pet like they are part of my family and enjoy creating a consistent routine that helps them feel safe while their owners are away. I care for every pet by learning their individual needs, personality and routine before providing care. I prioritize trust and comfort by following owner instructions, maintaining a clean environment and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I want each pet to feel relaxed, secure and cared for while their family is away.
“Sierra has done so amazing with Oakley and is always extremely helpful and good! She responds quickly and can always help out especially when it’s last minute! Oakley is very energetic and can be a lot but she does such a well job walking and keeping him calm!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals basically my whole life! I’ve never had a period of time without a cat and/or dog in my house (as well as fish and hermit crabs!). Ever since I’ve been able to, I helped care for the family pets (walking, grooming, feeding etc). Now I have two kitties that I love very much! I also used to walk my neighbors’ dogs about 10 years ago when I was 13 and all throughout high school. Additionally, I’ve done longer term pet sitting for friends going on trips several times. I take care of my animals everyday of course! I feed my cats daily, clean their litter boxes everyday, and make sure their water fountain is full. Weekly they get brushed, and they get baths as needed. I will comply to whatever your house rules are! Whatever your fur babies need, I’m here for! I want to make sure they are happy, healthy and their needs are met. My goal is to keep your space nice and clean and your pets content and cared for.
About: Growing up with dogs as a part of the family I have taken care of them my whole life. When I was 15 my family brought home a new puppy and I didn’t have a summer job, so she was my responsibility. Over the years I have taken care of dogs of all ages from energetic puppies to senior pups that need a little more love and understanding. I have administered medications and eye drops with ease and few trick up my sleeves. I enjoy having training sessions with the dogs and even teaching them a new trick while their family is away. This helps give them something to focus on and encourages bonding between us. I would be honored to take care of your furry family member while you’re away. I'm currently have a hybrid work schedule and would love to help out your family while I have the time. While in my current status I can do more walks, potty breaks as needed. Potty break is the first and foremost needed when I arrive at a client's home. Then a walk, a little time for some training and a little bit of play as well. It's just as important they have some mental stimulation.
About: I have had always minimum had at least two cats and a dog in my household growing up, I’ve pet sit for friends and family before and I’m studying zoology to take care of big animals!

Once that starts I’m available weekdays after 6pm and I have full availability on Weekends! Whatever special needs your furry friend needs I can accommodate at your place, and whether that’s a lot of playtime or downtime I’m up for whatever! The best care for your specific pet is what I will tailor our time to be! Every pet has unique needs and I’m happy to fulfill whatever you and your family are looking for:)
“Alexandria was great with our pets. When she had a question that we didn't cover earlier she didn't guess, she did the right thing and asked. We would definitely book with her again.”
About: From dogs and cats to bunnies, I know exactly what it takes to keep your pets happy and healthy. I’m fully confident with feeding schedules and medications, and I’m always learning more to provide the best care for small animals of all kinds. I have a few pets myself and know how to take care of them..i just started rover but have been taking care of animals for years. I know there are a lot of more qualified people out there but please give me a chance I won’t let you down I promise 💓 Because pet care is my full time career, my schedule is completely open and dedicated to providing your pets with consistent, round the clock attention and specialized care. For your peace of mind and your dog's safety, I provide all care right in the comfort of your own home, and I always have a trusted backup ready to help if your pup ever needs an extra hand.
About: I had pets ever since I was really young. I would help bathe them, feed them, and clean up after them. I've learned that pets have boundaries just like we humans do. All you need to do is be patient with them. I've help taken care of my past pets and even my other family's dog. I've helped watch my grandma's dog while she went on a one-week vacation. I've helped keep her fed, made sure to take her out when needed, gave her the attention she wanted, and cleaned after her. I even help baby sit my little cousin because I'm really trusting. I have the most pet care experience in cats and dogs. These are the pets I grew up with the most. I can handle two dogs at a time as long as they're small dogs. 0-20 lbs is fine. I work midnights, so there will be a timeframe whenever I can see a message or not. I work from 11:00pm to 7:00am, and typically sleep around 1:00/2:00pm to 7:30pm. Im available most times before 1:00pm. My everyday schedule can be easily adjusted when needed. I would treat your pets with respect and also respect their boundaries. I would treat them as my own and will do my best to keep them out of trouble. If you give me a list of things to do for them, I will gladly try my best to complete everything on the list. To make you feel comfortable I would gladly send you adorable pics of your furry friend. If I have any questions of your pet, I would be sure to text you. Feel free to check up on your pet at any time and I will respond fast as possible. Dogs need to be crated at night, unless they do really good outside the crate, meaning they don’t get into anything, or completely potty trained.
“Cara was truly amazing. This was the first time I had ever had my kitty away from home and I was truly happy with how it went. She has never been around dogs before and I was truly happy that she did well with the ones that were there! I am truly happy with this whole experience😊”
About: I have five years of experience with my furry companions and Im very patient and understanding and I love babysitting my furry friends especially puppies and my sweet senior babies I'm currently working part-time, so l'Il have plenty of time to play with your pups or kitty’s! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays I do not have a fence I am currently in an apartment but it is pet friendly but I can keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog or cats if needed...

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
