“Nicole was great! Communicative, shared lots of pictures from the check in, and even went the extra mile to keep an eye on and water started plants for our garden. We will definitely book again!”
About: I've been taking care of pets for 6 years and have 4 pets currently. Bluto (olde english bulldogge), Ruby (rottweiler), Tibby (siamese), and Molly (longhair). I do have experience with senior cats and dogs. We can talk a long walk on nature trails, or we can go for a slow stroll around the neighborhood! I only do gig work, so my schedule can fit around whatever your needs are. If something ever changes, you can always reach out and we'll work something out. For drop ins, I'll stop in and make sure theres no potty mess and if your kitty wants to we can play with whatever toys are available. We'll play for a bit so they're happy and worn out by the time we're done.
About: I’ve loved all sorts of animals since I was a young kid. From begging my parents for a puppy since I could speak, and going to friend’s houses who had pets, I always found a way to surround myself with animals. I have two dogs and two cats at home, who each have different energy levels. I love tending to the needs of all different ages and types of animals, whether that means going on a long walk or playing fetch, or giving some nice snuggles and pets for calmer animals. As a college student, I love to take a break from the daily grind and reconnect with other people and animals! I have a very flexible schedule, and can work with many different needs at this point in my life! I’m a student at UMD with a part time job and a flexible schedule! I am free sporadically through the day to check in with your furry friend, take a walk, and attune to their other needs as described by you. I am even more free in the evenings throughout the week to provide sitting for your animals in your home, or the same services I described earlier. Weekends are a great time to contact me too because I am frequently available to look after your pet(s). Ultimately, how I care for your pet depends on what you are most comfortable with and what the unique needs of your pet are. I have experience with crating my own dogs at home, and am more than comfortable doing that and taking any extra measures in your home that would make you feel even more comfortable leaving me with your pet! I also enjoy clean up spaces if that's something you're comfortable with.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I am pretty flexible with my ability to do drop in care with cats and dogs. I have the ability to stop in during the days, evenings and weekends. I can do dog walking as well. I would love to do house sitting when my schedule allows. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.
“Christina was wonderful with our cat, Molly! We were so grateful she was available at the last minute. She stayed in contact the whole week we were gone and sent the cutest pictures of Molly! We highly recommend Christina and will absolutely call her again!”

Misha is always so wonderful with my medically needy cat. She makes sure she gets her medications (pills and topicals) and triages all her symptoms to adjust doses, add on PRN meds, etc. She has a huge heart for cats and I’m so grateful she’s available to babysit on Rover!! She is ALWAYS my go to person because she is so wonderful and gives thorough updates, great pictures, and lots of love and playtime to my sweet needy cat. I always rest assured knowing Roo is being cared for by Misha and in great hands !
Went above and beyond for the care of our cat. She’s very sweet and considerate for all of the cats needs. She sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away! It was very helpful as a new cat mom who wants to make sure her baby is doing well. Would highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
