About: Hi! I’m Carrie, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. As a Navy retiree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and plenty of one-on-one time with your pet. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Since my kids are pretty grown now, it seems my life revolves around my animals. I am active, so I love to take the pups for walks or hikes (depending on weather). The cats sort of do their own thing, but I’m always down for cat snugs. Our home does allow animals to have free roam. They are allowed in all rooms and on furniture. If your babies are not good with cats, we will not be able to take them. We will give them all the love while you are away and send your photos as much (or as little) as you would like. In your home I will respect all your rules. If you don’t want them on furniture or particular rooms, just let me know and we will follow those guidelines. The love and photo sending mentioned above applies here!
“Leli is amazing! She is great about sending updates/photos on pet visits (which i love!). I have cat who needs medicine which needs to be given twice a day and she is very accommodating and reliable with that type of schedule.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting cats, dogs, and hamsters for the majority of my life. I’m very good with dogs and cats. Both of my dogs are well trained. I’m currently working remotely and attending online school. This will allow me to give your pets a great experience and loving care! I walk my two dogs at least once a day if not twice, I would love to bring yours along with! I have a fenced in yard and two playful dogs to keep yours company! Also a great walking area my dogs and I love to walk almost everyday! My dogs have their own room in my house with their cages that are left open all day, this gives them a place to go rest! Of course your dog will be welcome to do the same!
About: I grew up around animals of all kinds, but find myself most comfortable with dogs and cats. I have two dogs and three cats currently, two of the five being seniors. I enjoy catering to my furry friends and would love to help yours! I’m a stay at home pet mom after sustaining a leg injury in March so I have a very flexible schedule and am looking to fill my free time helping people by assisting them in caring for their pets. My yard is fenced in for my senior husky and senior Yorkshire Terrier. My dogs are also crate trained so I am familiar with crating animals and following schedules. Both my dogs and cats are on a feeding schedule which I strictly follow. I am familiar with routine and prioritize safety and comfort.
“Kar was fantastic! We got constant and wonderful feedback the entire time we were away. We will for sure try to book with her again during any future travels. I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a compassionate and friendly sitter for their fur babies!”
About: I’m a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience volunteering at my local animal shelter two to three times a week. I regularly walk dogs, foster animals in my home, and transport animals to meet rescue organizations. Through volunteering and fostering, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’m patient, dependable, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, cuddles, or just some extra company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. 🐾 *Fear, Anxiety, and Stress (FAS) course taken with Appalachian State University* I’m available on weekdays and some weekends. I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care. I can accommodate drop-in visits and make sure your beloved family member gets plenty of attention, playtime, feeding, and care while you’re away. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I follow feeding, medication, and care instructions closely and always make sure they have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. I’m also experienced with fostering and caring for animals that need a little extra attention.

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.

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 .
