“Jill did a great job taking care of our kitties while we attended our wedding! She gave us the peace of mind we needed. She followed instructions and made sure our cat got his medicine. We felt comfortable with her in our home and will happily trust her again with our cats in the future. Thanks so much!!”
“Tracy was great with the cats and went above and beyond to help out. She always made time to play with Basil and sent very sweet videos which I really appreciated while I was away.”
About: I’ve taken care of household animals my whole life! Whether the pets are my own, or I am taking care of my friend’s and family’s pets, I have had the responsibilities of feeding, cleaning, walking, and taking care of dogs and cats of various ages and sizes. I love bonding with pets and creating a safe space for animals. I am a teacher on summer break, so throughout August I have a lot of availability! I will also be available on evenings and weekends throughout the school year. While being there for your pets in your home, I will provide the best care and play that your pet requires! I am good at following clear directions, communicating with other people, and ensuring that all people and animals are happy at the end of the day.
“MY CATS LOVE MELISA!!!! Melisa is a real cat person. She GETS IT. Cats have unique needs and she was able to bring out my kitties' personalities while we were away for 2 weeks. THANKS MELISA💕💕”
About: Before pursuing my career in elementary education as a special education paraprofessional, I spent three years working at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I gained extensive hands-on experience managing groups of dogs, reading body language, and ensuring a safe, fun environment. I also spent time working as a veterinary assistant, gaining valuable skills in gentle handling, restraint, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness. Additionally, I have been a devoted cat mom for over 20 years and have provided reliable pet sitting for family and friends' cats and dogs for the past decade. Why Pet Parents Trust Me: - Professional Animal Handling Background: My time in both a boarding facility and a veterinary clinic means I know how to safely handle pets of all temperaments and ensure they feel safe, happy, and secure. - Medication & Special Care: I am experienced and confident administering oral and topical medications, supplements, and following precise health routines for senior pets or those with special needs. - Special Education Paraprofessional Background: My career in education brings an exceptional level of patience, structure, and attentive care to every visit. I treat every animal with individual attention and consistent care. - Lover of All Ages & Species: From energetic puppies and playful dogs to gentle seniors and timid cats, I have years of personal and professional experience catering to pets at every stage of life. My workday finishes around 2:30 PM. This schedule gives me reliable, consistent availability for late afternoon, evening, and weekend drop-in visits. On Thursdays, I teach dance in the late afternoon, so my availability starts after 4:00 PM. Whether your pet needs an afternoon check-in, an evening meal and play session, or weekend care while you are away, my set schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to keeping your pets happy, safe, and right on routine! When visiting your home, your pet's safety and the security of your property are my top priorities: - Secure Entrances & Exits: I am extremely mindful of doors, gates, and windows during visits to ensure pets never have an opportunity to slip outside unexpectedly. - Home Respect & Security: I treat your home with total care and privacy, always making sure doors are double-checked and locked upon leaving. - Continuous Updates & Communication: You will receive detailed visit reports and photos after every drop-in, so you always know how your pet is doing, when they were fed, and that everything went smoothly. Tailored & Attentive Pet Care: - Routine & Consistency: I carefully follow your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, medication timing, and exercise to keep your pet’s routine completely undisturbed. - Personalized Attention & Stress Reduction: Whether your pet loves high-energy playtime or just wants gentle, quiet cuddles on the couch, I meet every pet where they're at, adjusting to their personality and comfort zone. - Proactive Health & Behavior Awareness: With my background in dog boarding and veterinary assistant work, I continuously monitor body language and health to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.
“OMG, Juliette is amazing! She came each day almost to the minute and took care of everything. She kept us updated with pics and videos of our kitties and went above and beyond by doing whatever she could to make each visit perfect! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 13 years old. I gained experience through having my own pets at home as well as providing loving care for other families. I have a 14 year old Pomeranian Maltese Mix and a 4 year old cat. I can help with things like pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, playtime, giving plenty of love and attention, etc. I am working part-time, but during my free time I’d love to help care for pets because I’ve always had a love for animals and can give them the care they need to be happy and healthy! When I care for my own dog at home, I enjoy taking him for walks in areas away from too many cars like neighborhoods or dog parks (with his leash on) so that he has plenty of space to roam around and can meet other friendly dogs!
“Deirdre was so great with our cats! She responded quickly to our inquiry and was easy to communicate with throughout. The cats liked her immediately, and had a great week with her. You could tell from the pictures that they enjoyed spending time with her, and they were happy and healthy upon our return.”
About: Currently work from 6am-2 or 3pm on weekdays. I occasionally pick up other shifts and sometimes have dance practice in Boston. But other than that, I’m usually pretty free after 3-4pm every day. I am very serious about pet/cat safety. With my own cats I always make sure to leave nothing on the floor that they could choke on and nothing for them to accidentally hurt themselves with.
About: Hey, thanks for checking out my profile. I’d like to start by introducing myself, my name is Tina and I’m a passionate caretaker who has 20 years of pet care experience.

I pride myself in offering comprehensive services for furry companions and a loving environment for your pet to thrive. I’m skilled in dog walking, pet sitting over night or during the day, drop ins, grooming, and caring for senior dogs and cats. Also comfortable administering medications and taking animals to veterinary appointments. I’m dedicated to providing a quiet, peaceful and loving, safe environment tailored to each pet's needs. Im a trustworthy choice for pet owners seeking attentive, personalized care for each pet all dogs and cats are different and I’m pretty flexible in making sure I meet the needs of every individualized pet. I also take all kinds of requests depending on what your fur friend specifically needs. Also if transporting a pet is a concern or tough for whatever reason don’t worry because I can help with that as well if necessary. Im currently working full time as a train driver in the community locally. My days are quite flexible because I work only 5 minutes from home and I’m usually not away from the house on work days for more than 7 hours at a time. I’m off Tuesdays Wednesday and I have full availability during those days and early afternoons and evenings the other days because my shift sometimes ends at 1240pm. I also have some availability on the weekends after 2pm. The environment plays a vital role in the moods and well being of animals. I live in Arlington ma and it’s very very peaceful and quiet here and in my home. My home is clean and pet proof safe with gates sectioning each part of every room. Huge living room and open space for play and a gated closed off private backyard for outdoor play.
“Isabell was great with my cats while my husband and I were away. I was worried because i have a cat that needs more love and can be a bit much out of the 4, but they were all very happy!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for animal care and my commitment to creating a safe, loving environment for every pet.

“Lindsay took such great care of my cat Naomi! She was extremely professional and responsive, and she was so helpful even with some very last minute changes/housesitting needs that I was stressing over. Also had no trouble administering Naomi’s medication and was so attentive to her daily routine. I really appreciated all the detailed updates and cat pics!! I would happily have her catsit for us again :)”
“Once again, Jordan goes above and beyond to take care of our cat Limmy - who is unfortunately dealing with ringworm. She jumps right in and reassures us that he's doing great, and was kind enough to give him medication. We're lucky to have Jordan return and take care of Limmy and feel so much better leaving our cat alone knowing we can rely on her. She has a great way about cats and Limmy feels so comfortable with her!”
“Kristen was so kind and helpful! Pre-planning was a breeze, and all of the visits started on time and ended with cute photos and updates that reassured me that my kitties were well taken care of. I’ll definitely be reaching out in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of my friend’s and family member’s pets for years, and would love to help my neighbors care for their own pets! I am currently working a hybrid schedule, usually Tuesday-Thursday in the Boston office, so I have plenty of time to help care for your pets! Usually afternoons are best for me, especially on non-remote days. We have a large yard, great for pets that love running around and playing, and lots of sun-lit rooms for the ones who love lounging!
About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have tons of experience with pets.I’m patient, attentive, and truly love being around animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 3 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the late afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I can provide walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and other care around my work schedule. I’m dependable and do my best to keep pets on their normal routine. I don’t offer boarding, but I do provide house sitting in your home. I’ll treat your home with respect and keep things clean and tidy throughout my stay. I’m comfortable with crating, letting dogs in and out, feeding, walks, playtime, and following any routines or instructions you provide.
About: I am experience with caring for several types of dogs and cats in size and breed. I have cared for multiple dogs at the same time and meeting their needs at any age. My greatest strength is my patience and my willingness to communicate with your pets to ensure a working relationship that is based on love and care. I work remotely at home, and I am happy to take breaks to care for pets in between my work. I am flexible with early morning walks to late evening strolls. I love walking through parks and working at pet friendly cafes. I am transparent with my work. Working at clients home is something I understand that must be rooted in trust and care. I respect people's property and schedule to the best of my ability. I am actively aware of the need for communication, and I place that trait above all.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
