About: Hi! I'm Joselyn, a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and understanding just how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your fur baby. I recently lost my beloved dog, Pork, after many wonderful years together. Being his dog mom taught me patience, attentiveness, responsibility, and how much our pets truly become part of the family. I know firsthand how important it is to feel confident that your dog is safe, comfortable, loved, and getting plenty of attention while you're away. Whether your pup needs a walk, companionship, playtime, or a comfortable place to stay, I'll care for them with the same kindness and attention I would want for my own. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to follow your dog's normal routine and any special instructions you provide. I also love sending updates and photos so you can relax knowing your baby is in good hands. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pup! I work full time as a nail technician. I’m also a mother so the week days are very busy for me . The weekends however I am available to care for pets more than on week days . I also have a roommate so therefore I could not board any dogs at this time . Until I can move out without a roommate . I will fit my schedule to the best of my abilities to your pets needs . I’m very aware of my surroundings. Also very aware of the pets triggers and signs of any distress, discomfort or even just plan excitement. I will make sure you & your pet feel as comfortable as possible in my care. I’m very accommodating & easy going but still reliable & honest .

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.
