“Alison was fantastic. We have two very anxious cats and even they seemed to warm up to her! She even handled the bossing around from our non-anxious boy. Our babies were very well cared for and her updates are so cute and funny! Will definitely use again for our large fur family!”
“Amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of our cats and kept me updated through the entire process. She is my number 1 choice when I need someone to watch my cats!”
About: I come from a major animal loving family & have been surrounded by many different types of animals as far back as I can remember! I'm surprised it took me so long to make it into a profession, but I've been caring for other peoples' pets & homes for about 10 years now. My schedule is currently very flexible & I am often open to travel a ways from home for longer sits. I have my own cat, Frank, who is fairly aloof & quite understanding when I come home smelling like other animals. 😹 My current home is not suitable for having extra pets in it, so getting to sit in YOUR home is great for all parties involved - I get my cute animal fix, you get peace of mind that your pets & home are safe & well looked after, & your pets don't have too much disruption to their daily routine so they're less stressed while you're away!
“Leigh Ann took good care of my cats completing each task i asked for. she was reliable, yet flexible when i had travel plan changes. she went out of her way to help me out when i lost lost my house key overseas. she is trustworthy in my home, professional, dedicated and a very kind person. i will definitely call on her again the next time i need a cat sitter.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since 8th grade (8 years). I've worked with young adult and senior dogs. I am able to take care many task the owners left me to do. Currently, I am an online student at Oregon State University. With that I am able to have a very flexible schedule. I also work at a restaurant as a hostess. For dog sitting at clients homes, I'm usually fulfilling all expectations given by the pet owner. I am not scared of cleaning and picking up poop. I'm an avid walker, so I would enjoy walking your pet! I love all animals! And I'm very excited to meet y'all!
“Provided care to Mocha last minute when I had an issue with the previous sitter. She took really good care of my baby took her out for walks and make sure that she ate. I recommend her!”
“Sam was awesome! She watched both my dogs for a week while out of time. She’s extremely prompt and spot on with timing of her drop ins. She took awesome care of my dogs and I’d recommend anyone looking for help to reach out to her!”
“Kelly did a great job sitting with our 5 big dogs. She came twice a day and loved on them, fed them & let them play. We rarely go anywhere because of our dogs but now we know we can as long as Kelly is available! Thank you Kelly!”
About: I have always had pets growing up still have some! I love animals with a passion. You can trust me to treat your pet like it’s my own! I have taken a break from work because I want to focus on starting a family so I will be doing some rover jobs on the side. I currently live in a house with a big back yard I am willing to watch 1 dog at my house because I do have 4 other dogs that live with me.
About: Growing up in La Cañada Flintridge, my love for animals has been an integral part of my life since childhood. Dogs have always gravitated towards me, making it clear that caring for animals comes naturally to me. I believe dogs are truly a gift from above, sent to bring joy and laughter into our lives. Huntington Dog Beach is my happy place, where I can connect with these wonderful creatures and witness the pure happiness they bring. As a dedicated medical professional with over 25 years of experience in La Cañada Flintridge, I understand the importance of compassion and care. My my schedule is open. I dream of one day having a dog ranch where all furry friends are welcome, providing love and safety for those in need. With a genuine connection to animals that rivals human relationships, I'm excited to share my love and care with your beloved pets. Currently my schedule is open for pet care. I am able to care for pets during the day but I also can do overnights as well. I believe it’s most beneficial for your beloved pets to remain in their environment of their homes so that they can feel safe and secure.
About: I have worked with dogs for 6 years, I own two dogs as well. A German Shepherd/Belgian Maliniois named Dex he is 5 years old and he has so much energy but is the biggest friendly fur ball. I also have a Cavachon named Dakota, he is 3 years old and he a couch potato inside and a dare devil outside. I work at a doggy daycare currently so I’ve worked with various breeds and I understand that you can not judge a dog based on breed. I also worked with temperaments and personality as well, I can manage the behaviors if walks are taking. I’m also in vet tech school so I’m currently learning more about dogs such as health issues and signs. My schedule is Monday through Friday during the day, with a mid-morning break that allows me to provide potty breaks and feedings if needed. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home for every pup in my care. Crates are only used for feeding if needed, and the rest of the time your furry friend is free to roam and relax. My home also has security cameras for added peace of mind. Your pup will enjoy walks, plenty of attention, and lots of love while they’re with me. I respect each pups routine and personality, and fresh water is always available to keep them happy and comfortable.
“Kyla was incredible, she did a check up on my puppy and made sure he got a little food and played with him so he could get some exercise. she left a great detailed summary and tons of photos showing my puppy having the time of his life. Super appreciative for her and could tell my pup had the time of his life with her!”

I am home from school around 3:30 an can get to you pretty quick. I always take my rowdy little lady to the park every friday evening when possible and we even get little snacks on the way home. feed them on schedule, provide fresh water, give exercise and playtime, clean up after them, and offer comfort and attention. Always follow the client’s specific instructions.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover since I was a little kid. I as well have a 8 year old mini poodle mix that I love and care for. I am currently not working but I previously worked for Houston 911 for 4 years and then began working at a Chiropractic clinic for 5 years. I am taking time for myself and traveling more. I have returned to Houston and have plenty of time to spend with both dogs and cats as it’s a passion of mines. I have a fenced house, front yard, and backyard for my fur babies Charlie and Ryder. They are very playful and love being around other dogs. I am also able to separate them in different areas of the houses if your fur babies do not like to be with other dogs.

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.

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.
