About: Animals have always been one of my greatest passions and being able to work with them is a dream come true. I personally have owned and taken care of dogs, tropical and freshwater fish, small pets, and cats. I’ve also spent time volunteering at animal shelters and have experience in house-sitting and pet-sitting locally. I’m currently enrolled in evening cosmetology classes 5-10pm Mon-Thurs and work Saturday mornings 8-3. Otherwise I’m mostly a homebody who enjoys spending time with my pets and outside. I have a couple of my own pets so I’d rather not keep other pets at my place for extended periods of time (unless they’re fully up to date on vaccines, shots, and behavioral training), but I’m happy to assist in anyway I can at your house. I can do basic cleaning and of course pet care such as walking, watering, feeding, taking outside, playing, etc.. I can lock the house and leave the key in a predetermined location if needed. I’m happy to follow any house rules, special instructions, and anything extra needed for the pets, including medications or continuing ongoing training.
“This is my second time having Callie watch my kitties, and she continues to be absolutely wonderful. Callie is always on time and sends excellent updates with each visit. I always receive great photos, videos, and visit summaries. Callie also always takes time to play with the cats. She is a sweetheart.”
“Katherine is AMAZING!! She was super diligent to send me photos, extremely helpful and truly cares about fur babies. I’m so happy I found her and I am comforted to know that when I need help with my little furry one I know just who to call!!”
“Fernanda took amazing care of my two cats. She was responsible, responsive, and she sent me lots of pictures. They warmed up to her pretty quickly and loved her. I would highly recommend Fernanda, and I will use her again in the future!”
“Rachel is the greatest! She's done drop-ins for our pups on two separate occasions and always goes above and beyond. She's always on schedule, shows such deep care for our dogs and home, is exceptionally communicative, and is so fantastic to work with all around. You may not be able to find a better dog helper in the world!”
“Kylie stayed with our two cats for two weeks while we were out of town. One of our cats requires oral medication twice daily. Kylie did this easily. She communicated with us and sent daily pictures of our babies. Also, at the end of the stay she went above and beyond to wash the sheets, towels, and ran the dishwasher.”
About: Hi! I'm Jenna. I'm reliable, attentive, and I genuinely treat every dog like my own. I've spent a lot of time around dogs with different personalities, from high-energy ones that need a lot of movement to more sensitive or anxious dogs that need a calmer approach. I pay attention to body language and try to make sure they feel comfortable and safe, especially in new situations. I'm pretty active and love being outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I'm also consistent and detail-oriented, so l'll follow your routine and instructions closely. I'll always send updates with photos so you know how things are going. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, or just someone calm and reliable, l've got it covered. I work part-time so I am flexible with my availability. I control my own schedule and usually can accommodate last minute pet needs. I can also do regular, repeat schedules. I focus on keeping dogs calm, safe, and comfortable by paying close attention to their behavior and energy. I follow your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and any specific instructions you have. I’m confident handling strong or high-energy dogs and make sure walks are controlled and structured. I’m also respectful of your home and will always keep things clean and secure. You’ll get updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing.
“I was very nervous leaving my cat with someone else for the first time. Jordyn made sure she was comfortable and happy! Jordyn sent many updates with them playing! She is a very sweet person and with do great with your furry friends! If I could give her 10 stars I would!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by and taking care of dogs since I was young. I have experience with all ages, giving medications and with handling reactive dogs. I am currently working full time (4-5 days) as a server/bartender. My shifts are short(4-5hrs) and usually in the late morning or early evening so I always have part of my day to dedicate to your pet. I do not offer boarding services but I am more than happy to visit your pet and make sure they are comfortable, fed and walked if needed. I enjoy interacting with animals and assessing their body language to meet their needs.
“Max is awesome! He goes above and beyond to make your fur baby feel loved and taken care of. He sends pictures daily which is so comforting when being away for a long period of time. Great communication and he connected with my cat so quick. When my cat is usually so guarded and shy with new people. Would definitely recommend his services!!”
“I use Sara every time I go out of town. She’s great at communicating and does a great job taking care of my cat. I know my cat is getting love and attention with Sara. Thanks Sara!”

Kylie did such an amazing job taking care of my boy. I was so worried to leave him because I hadn’t left him alone before but as soon as I met Kylie I knew he would be in good hands. She provided updates and photos of him and it made me feel better and able to enjoy my vacation. I would highly recommend her!

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 .

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 .
