“Tracy has looked after our cat, peanut butter, on several occasions with the best of care. We are so appreciative of Tracy and caring treatment of our fur baby. She will continue to be on our speed dial for future needs!”
“Angela spent such good time with our two kitties! She took them in the front Lanai and let them play. They loved it! Food, water and litter box were well taken care of. We hope to use Angela again!”
“Holly and Jace stayed at my home for four nights to care for my one-year-old kitten, Stevie, who can be quite a handful. Holly sent photos with sweet notes about how he was doing and how much they loved him, so I always felt in the loop. I felt completely comfortable the whole time and would hire them again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!!!!”
About: As a dependable and detail-oriented professional, I bring a calm, nurturing energy and a high level of responsibility to pet sitting. My background has instilled in me a deep respect for routines, cleanliness, and clear communication—meaning your home will be kept immaculate, and your pets will receive their meals, medications, and exercise exactly on schedule. Above all, I am genuinely attentive to animal behavior, ensuring your dogs or cats feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you are away. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, giving you complete peace of mind. Because I have a completely flexible, open schedule, I am available all day to dedicate my full attention to your pets. Unlike sitters who rush out for standard 9-to-5 jobs, my day revolves entirely around your animal's needs. This means I am consistently on hand to provide frequent bathroom breaks, maintain precise feeding and medication schedules, and offer plenty of daytime companionship and play. Your pets won't have to spend long hours waiting alone, giving them a stress-free, comfortable routine and giving you total peace of mind throughout the day. Because I am available throughout the entire day, I can dedicate my full attention to maintaining your pet's exact daily routine right in the comfort of their own home. I strictly adhere to their familiar schedules for feeding, exercise, and medication so they experience zero disruption while you are away. Additionally, I keep a detailed, daily log of their activities, meals, and behavior, keeping you fully connected and informed. With me, your pets receive constant, reliable companionship, and you get the total peace of mind that comes from knowing their day is structured, safe, and fully accounted for.
“Hailey was absolutely amazing! I hired her to watch my two cats while I was away on a long trip, and she did such a wonderful job. She checked in every day, kept me updated, and made sure my fur babies were happy and cared for. I came home to two very content cats and a spotless space. I’ll definitely be hiring Hailey again for future trips. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
About: I have a special gift for earning the trust of shy, anxious, and hard-to-win-over cats—it's why many people call me a cat whisperer.. here's a little about me.... I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently share my home with four cats and have spent my entire life around animals. Many people call me a "cat whisperer" because I have a special ability to connect with shy, fearful, and independent cats. I love helping nervous pets feel safe and comfortable, and I've seen many reserved or unfriendly cats become affectionate and trusting with patience and understanding. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and overnight care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and quiet approach, I tailor my care to their individual needs. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and love. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and plenty of attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work part-time as a caregiver for the elderly and take care of animals in my spare time. Most of the clients I work with have pets which I tend to as well. I am around animals pretty much around the clock and absolutely love it. ❤️ When I'm working with clients, I give as much attention to their pets as I do to them. I am a highly sought-after caregiver due to my attentiveness to their animals and the love and care I give them. I treat each and every one as if they were my own pet. I pay attention to their individual needs and wants.
About: My home is located in south venice with a secure fenced in yard. I adopted a little girl Ellie who is 6 yrs old and a mix of datsun/?. She loves everyone and everyone loves her. My 2 kitties are both females and reaching ole age of 15 yrs. Golden G stands for the Golden Girls!!! But we luv boy doggies too. I pet sit for my neighbors and they are the ones who suggested I offer my services out. They will be my best references. I cared for fish, hamsters, bunny's and even pet chickens. Luv them all. Can't watch animal kingdom, even though its nature, breaks my heart. I love furry babies and could not even imagine life without them. Luv luv 💓
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with cats, and after college I helped raise and care for two Golden Retrievers and a Golden Retriever puppy, giving me six years of hands-on experience with dogs through every stage of life from puppyhood through their senior years. Two of my dogs battled cancer, which gave me significant experience caring for pets with more complex needs, including medication management, monitoring changes in behavior and comfort, and providing the extra patience and attention an ailing or senior pet may require. I also cared for one of my dogs through leg surgery, including both pre-operative preparation and post-operative recovery and activity restrictions. Because of those experiences, I’m especially comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need medications or a little extra attention. I understand how stressful it can be to leave a pet with someone else, especially when they have additional care needs, so I’m attentive to each owner’s instructions and their pet’s normal routine. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and affection I’ve given my own and am happy to provide plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my day. I’m home throughout the day and can accommodate a wide variety of schedules, including frequent walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, medications, and plenty of attention. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and can adapt my routine to what your pet is accustomed to at home. I have a quiet, pet-friendly home with no other animals, so your pet will receive plenty of individual attention and won’t have to adjust to unfamiliar pets. My home also has a fenced, screened-in backyard area for safe outdoor time and potty breaks. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine, temperament, and any special instructions, and I’m happy to accommodate crates, medications, feeding schedules, or other individual needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re in my care.
“We are so grateful to have found Nichole. Our two Cairn Terrier brothers like being home and we prefer having them there, especially compared to the stress and expense of taking them to a kennel. We had a great meet & greet with Nichole and our pups took to her immediately. This was a difficult trip for us (mom’s funeral), and getting updates and photos from Nichole has been very comforting. Her enthusiasm and professionalism have helped make this trip so much better and opened the door for future travels knowing our dogs are very well cared for. Thank you, Nichole, for being excellent.”
“Devon was incredible taking care of our cat! She spent so much extra time with her, and we had such peace of mind knowing that our cat is in great hands. It’s always scary leaving your pets in the care of someone else, but Devon made it so easy. Thank you Devon!!”
“Allie was great with my cat. She made sure she was gentle and slow and my GiGi and he was so comfortable with her. He even jumped in her lap wanting attention. Thanks Allie!!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South Venice
Christine is absolutely amazing and handled all of our animals with care. She spent time playing and paying attention to our kitties and took amazing notes and photos which really helped put us at ease as this was our first time having a pet sitter through Rover. I would highly recommend Christine to care for your fur babies. She’s absolutely amazing!
Holly was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind and accommodating, especially since we reached out on short notice. Our cat had recently had surgery and needed some extra care and attention, and Holly took such great care of him. She kept us updated, made sure he was comfortable, and gave him all the love and attention he needed. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care. We would absolutely trust Holly with our pets again and highly recommend her to anyone!
Keisha took care of our sweet Samantha for 6 days. Samantha was content, playful, loving during our absence. Keisha send pictures twice a day from her visits and that was a great thing to see her each day. We could not have asked for anything better. Keisha even brought in our mail. Thank you Keisha for your loving care.
Tracy was an absolute blessing!! She took amazing care of my 2 cats while I traveled out of state. I received updates and pictures with each visit. It was so comforting knowing my boys where well taken care of while I couldn't be there. If I ever have to leave them again, I will be sure to rebook Tracy with Rover! Thank you Tracy!!

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.

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 Meet & Greet .
