“Brandy was terrific. My cat immediately warmed up to her, which is uncommon and I truly appreciate that Brandy helped me out over a holiday weekend. She provided great pictures and updates and everything was in perfect shape!”
“Saffron was awesome! She took great care of our cats. We looked forward to her report and photos every day. We could enjoy our time away knowing our kitties were in good hands.”
“Dawn is great! very friendly and approachable. she's very flexible too. I originally got the dates wrong and she had no problem rescheduling for the correct dates. she even offered me half off the rate that Rover initially suggested. Will 100% be booking her again!”
“Zoe is fantastic! Our cat seems to be very shy with Rovers typically, but not with Zoe! Zoe is thorough in her care and her write-up. Will be exclusively using her in the future when we can!”
“Katie was very responsive and communicative and took great care of my cats while I was away. She let me know if she needed to adjust our time a bit and took great photos of them. One of my cats can be a little shy but she was already looking for pets from Katie within the first day! Highly recommend and I would definitely book with her again. Thank you!!! 🩵”
“Chelsea did a great job with our cats. Arrived home to a clean and tidy kitchen and litter boxes. She is a good communicator and we enjoyed the pictures she sent. We recommend her as a terrific sitter!”
“Alyssa did a wonderful job of taking care of my cats. I felt right away that I could trust her to take good care of them! Will definitely use her services again in the future.”
“I went looking for a Rover sitter very early in the morning and she had already updated when she was available. That alone convinced me to book her. The meet and greet went well and I knew that she would take great care of my babies. She is simply the best. My "vampire kitty" looked well cared for in the pictures she sent me. Next time I need a sitter, Mya will be my choice.”
“Joshua is fantastic! Super responsive and responsible. Made our 9-day trip away stress-free as everyday we knew our cat was receiving the absolute best care. So grateful for Joshua. Highly recommend.”
“Lizzy was an amazing sitter!!! She provided consistent updates with pictures and asked the right questions when needed. We will definitely ask Lizzy to watch our kitties again in the future! She also played with them and the kitties clearly loved her :)”
About: Hi! I'm Kernix — a military spouse, dog lover, and proud chocolate Lab mom to Josie! I know how important it is to find a safe, loving, and stress-free place for your pup while you're away. My goal is to provide a true "home away from home" experience with lots of attention, structure, and affection. I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, we had pugs, chihuahuas, bunnies, and hamsters, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. We moved to South Carolina in October 2025 after previously being stationed in Washington. My husband is originally from Myrtle Beach, SC, and we've loved settling into the Summerville community and making it feel like home. 1 Family at a Time for Boarding: I only accept one client family at a time for overnight boarding, so your pup will receive personalized care without the stress of a crowded boarding environment. About Our Home & Routine: We live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with a fully fenced backyard where pups can safely play, sniff, and explore. Dogs enjoy regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, enrichment activities, belly rubs, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also closely follow feeding routines and medication schedules when needed. Meet Josie: We also have our sweet chocolate Lab,Josie! She is extremely friendly and social and has done wonderfully with every person, dog, and cat she has met so far. Josie enjoys meeting friendly dogs and would love a playmate during your pup's stay. Meet & Greets & Communication: I highly encourage meet & greets before boarding, especially for first-time stays. I want both you and your pup to feel comfortable and confident before booking. Communication is very important to me, and I always do my best to stay flexible with drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible. Boarding & Doggy daycare: Doggy day care pickup is by 5 PM. If pickup is needed after 5 PM, please book boarding instead so I can properly accommodate your pup's evening and overnight care routine. Boarding Requirements: To help keep everyone safe and comfortable, I currently only accept: • Dogs that are reasonably potty trained • Friendly dogs that do well around people and other dogs • Dogs that are up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention Because I provide care in my personal home, I may not be the best fit for dogs with severe separation anxiety, destructive behaviors, or frequent indoor accidents.
About: I have 3 dogs and 2 horses myself so I have plenty of experience with animals. I love taking dogs on walks or out to the the park to go play and make friends. I am an athlete so taking the dogs with me to exercise is always fun. I’m very organized so high maintenance pets are not a problem for me. Having horses I can deal with a lot. Young dogs are also not a problem I have had dogs in the past that have had puppies or I have raised dogs from puppies. Choose me to be your dog’s or cat’s best friend when you’re away. I also love to send the owners pictures and videos of their pets when they are away so they know that they are doing well. I am a teacher that loves to spend my free with animals and caring for them. I have a pretty set schedule from 6am-2:45pm but after that I can be pretty flexible. I also am happy to do overnight stays. On weekends I able to to multiple visits through out the day. I can go on 2-3 walks with them a day and do not mine taking them to a dog park to play. I let them out to potty multiple times during the day. If the weather is nice we go on walks and spend a good amount of time playing outside. If it is a raining day I spend time with them inside play as well. I try to be sure to stay on their schedule as best as I can. That they go on their regular walks and get their food at their regular times.
“Felt very heard and listened to when it came to what I wanted for my cats. Was very respectful of my home and everything. I have a cat who has had a lot of problems in the past but she handled everything with grace and made my feel comfortable about leaving my babies. Overall, AMAZING!”

Jennifer is awesome! Her visits are extremely thorough and she is very diligent about making sure everything is taken care of while also making my pet feel comfortable and taken care of. I love how many photos she takes every time she visits and her daily visit journals are always super detailed. I cannot recommend her enough!
Alyssa is awesome and very thoughtful! We never worry about our kitties when they are in her care. She always keeps in close communication and asks questions when we forget to include something in our care instructions. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs care for their animals!

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 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 .

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.
