“Rachel was amazing & very attentive with Pepper. I left Pepper with Rachel for a decent amount of time (9 days), and she was extremely prompt & consistent with the time she came to walk & care for Pepper. He smiled in all of the pictures she sent me while I was away. Would definitely love to get Rachel's help again on my next trip!”
About: I have taken care of my close friends and families many cats and dogs of different breeds and amazingly different personality types for at least the last 15 years. Who doesn't love an exuberant leg rub hello from a lovey kitty or a jumping puppy who loves to give kisses? However, keep in mind I do have a special skill set with both cats and dogs that are very unsure of new people. When I enter an animals home I actively ignore shy animals, sit quietly and let them come to me on their own terms. I have a strong understanding of those classic stress signals, the cute but warning whale eyes, the lip licking (and not because they are hungry) and flat ears. I am also versed in diabetic care for cats as well. I am comfortable with large breed dogs and have experience with German Shepherds and Bully Breeds. In addition I am willing to wear an N95 as needed for any immune compromised needs. Looking forward to meeting your adorable animals! I currently work week days but I am free in the afternoon and evenings Monday-Friday starting at 3:30pm and have open flexibility on most Federal Holidays, Saturdays and Sundays. I will be coming to you and your pet to provide the upmost familiarity and comfort for them. I have a calm slow approach and let shy animals come to me to acclimate. I am a pro at following specific instructions you might request because every pet is as unique as their people are and deserve the best. I am familiar with basic cat and dog first aid and have emergency vet numbers saved.
About: I’m just starting out with Rover but I have been a pet passionate person my entire life, and I’d love to meet yours! I worked as a veterinary technician through college and after, so I have lots of experience with medically complex cats and dogs. I also currently foster dogs and grew up fostering cats, so I’ve gotten to meet and learn about many breeds and different personalities. I’m honest, reliable, and I care deeply about the needs of animals. I also have experience caring for parrots, poultry, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and other small exotic pets. As a stay at home mom we are home and playing in the yard very often. I walk my dogs every single day, rain or shine, we love to explore! I have a securely fenced yard with a lovely garden and a big grassy area for playing. I love to treat new dogs like family and help them feel safe and loved.
“Alex was the best! She took such great care of our cat and it made us so happy to get updates from her while we were away, she’s a very loving and kind person (also very funny) and we were lucky to have her.”
About: I am a high energy and highly empathetic care giver. I deeply care for all animals and enjoy getting them excersize. I previously owned a very high energy lab and pitbull mix. She needed lots of attention, training and excersize. I work part-time as a backpacking guide. Clearly, I love to walk! My passion for animals makes dog walking an excellent side job. I am very flexible. I care for each dog sensitively, depending on their energy level and need for direction. I understand that some need a more stern approach, and some need a little nudge out of the door. Every animal will get a steady and caring hand. Treats are excellent tools for training and motivation on my walks.
About: What truly sets me apart is my calm, steady presence and my firm but kind temperament — pets pick up on our energy, and I strive to create a safe, relaxed, and positive environment for every animal in my care. Whether I’m reassuring a nervous rescue, setting gentle boundaries for an excitable pup, or coaxing a shy kitty out for treats and snuggles, I approach every situation with patience, and warmth. I believe in treating every pet like family, learning their individual routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry companions and give them the care and attention they deserve! I am away in the morning for a few hours then I work from home the rest of the morning/afternoon. I’m able available to attend to their needs as they arise and provide plenty of attention, potty breaks and walks throughout the day — not just during quick check-ins. I am available to care for your pet in my home or your home depending on the service requested. Whether in my home or yours, I will feed your pet according to their feeding schedule, provide fresh water at all times, engage in play with them and clean up after them. In my home I am able to provide a quiet, peaceful, pet-friendly environment with a large fenced in yard to run around in. Inside I love to draw the blinds and give pets a cozy spot by the window to sunbathe while watching the people, pets and wildlife pass by. It is my motto to leave a space better than you left it so while in your home I will not only follow all routines and procedures as needed but I also like to tidy up after the animals and provide photo updates to put you at ease.
About: I have a beloved rescue pup and am a responsible and reliable pet sitter/dog walker. I grew up with dogs and have been taking care of family members’ and friends’ cats and dogs for over 15 years. I love animals of all sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments. I look forward to meeting your furry creature :) I am currently available to walk dogs or do drop in visits in the White Center area during my lunch break. I work in White Center and am available to walk dogs during my lunch break. I love being outside and meeting new animals so I’m happy to make time in my schedule for your pet. I am responsible, communicative, and friendly. I ask questions about your pet’s needs and routines so that I can provide the best possible care. My home is clean, safe, non-smoking, and already puppy proofed with no children.
“Lisa was absolutely fantastic with my cat! She was kind enough to clean up after him when he got sick and was very communicative with me while I was away! I would highly recommend Lisa!”
“Allison is basically an extended family member at this point :) We and our cats feel so at ease when we travel just knowing she'll be looking after them. She's a loving and thoughtful person and we can't recommend her enough.”
“Sarah has now watched our cats twice during a period where they are not getting along. She did a great job with some complicated care instructions and didn't hesitate to ask questions. For our most recent trip she was flexible as the kitty situation evolved prior to us leaving. During both trips we received lots of photos and updates, which helped us with peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a clean house and happy kitties!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of their loving animals. I grew up with cats however I have taken care of many dogs as well. I am an all around animal lover and would love it for you to trust me with your pet! I currently have a full time job, however my days typically end around 4:30. This gives me enough time to still do evening walks, sitting, and overnights as another way to destress and why not do that with a furry friend! I have the most free-time on weekends due to not having to be at work. Anytime with a pet is a great time for me! I live in an apartment however there are parks nearby that are dog friendly and perfectly safe and fine to go for a walk and get some fresh air. There are also areas by the water that are nice to walk around as well. As for cats my apartment is nice and spacious and they would have space anywhere to hangout and lay down for company, pets, and sun!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sunnydale
London is highly dependable. She came twice a day for the last 12days to let my cat out and back in the house while we were away. She was very responsive to messages and questions, and went the extra mile (or couple blocks) to try and find my cat when she hadn’t returned for the day. We really appreciate London and hope she’s available the next time we need someone.
Tyler and Alexis are by far my favorite pet sitters! Tyler went above and beyond taking care of my elderly cat Jazzy. He sent many pictures of her and details of what he did to make sure that she got all of her meds, was kept clean, happy and even played with her-all while keeping her litter boxes clean and followed my detailed instructions. Thank you Tyler for such a great job and peace of mind on my vacation. I will be hiring you again for sure!!
We booked Paul to do drop in visits for my two cats while we were away on a trip. Paul was amazing with our cats! He was super communicative, sent great updates and photos, and made sure our cats were happy and well cared for while we were away. Everything was left clean and tidy. We’ll definitely be booking Paul again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!
Ana took incredible care of our girls on short notice! She made sure everything was taken care of and took the time to play and love on them while we were gone. They really seemed to warm up to her quickly and enjoy being around her. She even stayed long one day after one of the girls ate a small piece of string during play time to make sure she was ok. We couldn’t have hoped for someone better!
Jeannie goes above and beyond. I can’t say that enough. She took such good care of our kitty!! She’s played games with her and gave her so much love and attention. She also did extra things while we were away, even asked if she could take the trash out for us on trash day! She’l thinks of everything and is so thoughtful! It didn’t take long for our cat to warm up to her and we feel so much better about leaving knowing our cat is under the care of Jeannie. Thank you Jeannie!!!
Harley was amazing and I definitely would use her again to watch my cat on our next trip. She was always timely in replying to messages and arrived when she said she would. I felt that she took great care of my cat and was able to administer his meds. I appreciated the extra time she spent for a meet and greet. It really help me to feel comfortable leaving my pet in her care

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 .

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.

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.
