About: BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIAL!! NEW DROP-IN CUSTOMERS FIRST VISIT FREE. NEW BOARDING CUSTOMERS 1ST DAY 50% OFF ANY STAY 3 DAYS OR MORE. I have been taking care of pets for about 15 years off and on whether it be my own pets or the pets of others'. Bathing, brushing, soothing, walking, giving medications, you name it. I have had a few classes over K9 Resuscitation and can perform basic first aid and CPR on your pet if needed. If there is something that needs done for your pet that I haven't done before, then teach me how and I will ensure its done while I have your pet in my care. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I work full time so I am usually only available to board or day care on the weekends or when I take a break from work. I will update my schedule before hand though and we'll often be available on holidays. I can do dropins a few days a week. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog. She loves other animals. If your pets are aggressive to other animals, then let me know. I will try to accommodate as much as possible by keeping them in a separate room.
âThis was our second time working with Nichole and we just adore how she takes care of our cats and plays with them. Her rover report cards and communication is great at easing anxiety when we go on our trips.â


âKimberley was personable and reliable. We loved the pictures and updates. She helped our dog feel comfortable even though we were gone for quite a few days! Weâll definitely use her again if we go out of town.â

âEboni was amazing! She gave my cats excellent care, and kept me updated while I was away. She sent daily pictures, and took her time getting to know my catâs personalities (they loved her). I would absolutely book with her again!â

âSo amazing! She was great with my dogs! I needed someone the night of NYE last minute and I am so happy! I have an older blind dog who needs lots of attention! So thankful to find someone who loves my babes as much as I do!!â

âThank you Kara for taking care of Gabby! She loved her visits very much. Sheâs a happy girl! Appreciate your posting photos of her playing and walking. Weâll book with you again when we are here.â

âLauren was great!! She brought in a package ? of litter for me and used it to fill up the box, as I asked her to when cleaning it. Lauren was extremely patient and helpful with me when my schedule started spiraling out of control...lol ? I came home to very happy kitties, who were obviously well taken care of!! I will definitely use her next time!! ?â

âShe came immediately during my last minute booking and went above and beyond for my pups! Sheâs a dog whisperer, I highly recommend her to anybody who needs pet services!â

âRobyn was great. We got stranded by weather circumstances and she continued to visit our pets until we could get home two days later. Competent and efficient and the kitties were happy and purring upon our returnâ

âHayley did a great job with the drop-in visits for our two pups. She sends great pics of them enjoying some outside time and scratches. She's was flexible with their schedule and great with our specific instructions. Would recommend and will use Hayley again.â

âNeo has been so helpful checking in on my cats! I routinely have to go stay overnight in Austin for work for 2-3 days at a time and will continue to hire Neo in the future as well so I know my cats are in good hands.â

âJennifer is beyond patient and brave with our 17yo deaf and blind dog and our usually fearful, anxious dog. Her visit reports are detailed and specific. She was prompt and handled everything exactly as planned/expected. We have already booked Jennifer for our next trip!â

About: Feel free to ask me about pricing! After being diagnosed with a chronic illness, I turned pet sitting into my full time passion. Working from home gives me the flexibility to care for your babies any time and anywhere. With over nine years of experience, I have been a dedicated caretaker for animals of all sizes. My services include walking, bathing, feeding, sitting, and boarding pets. I have a lot of experience with elderly, reactive, and ill pets. When house-sitting, I ensure your pets are well-cared for with regular walks, feeding, watering, and bathing as needed, along with additional household tasks like watering plants. During drop-in visits, I provide feeding, watering, and playtime for at least 30 minutes, extending the time if your pets need extra attention and care. I particularly enjoy daily dog walks, whether it's through a local park or a favorite trail specified by the owner. Every service comes with plenty of photos and updates, keeping you connected with your beloved pets. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I develop with each animal. I truly assess and respond to their needs and emotions, going beyond the basic requirements because I genuinely care. For your convenience, I offer same-day booking and cancellation to accommodate your schedule. If you have any questions, please feel free to email, call, or text me at any time. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! If I am booked for your pet, they are my main priority. My routine revolves around them as if they were my own. The more time I get to spend with furry friends the better! Each pet is different and require different levels of attention. I am happy to fill in for the owner in any way that is needed. Sometimes that looks like standing outside with the pet during potty time. Sometimes that looks like ensuring nothing in left out on the ground or counters. I also do not take any pet to a place that is unsafe or that I or the owner are unfamiliar with. Safety first!

I have a fenced yard, cameras all over the outside of my house and in the inside as well. There is always someone at my house.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your catsâ 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, donât 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.

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.
