About: I’ve cared for pets since childhood, raising both cats and dogs of my own and helping neighbors, friends, and family with theirs. I have experience with puppies as young as 15 weeks, energetic adults, and senior dogs who require gentle, patient care. I’ve also raised two cats from kittens to adulthood, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’ve personally walked through the joy of raising pets and the heartbreak of saying goodbye to four beloved dogs and one cat in their senior years, which gives me a special compassion for aging pets and the families who love them. I’m also certified through the GoodPup Dog Training Certification program, which has strengthened my understanding of reward-based care, basic training support, enrichment, and helping dogs feel safe and successful. What sets me apart is not just my love for animals, but my reliability, consistency, and attention to detail. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, quirks, and preferences so I can care for them with the same patience and love I give my own. As a stay-at-home mom and small business owner who works from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day for boarding, daycare, walks, drop-ins, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddle breaks. I do my best to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I provide a safe, welcoming, family-style home environment with a fenced backyard, plenty of room to play, and no resident pets, so visiting dogs receive lots of attention and care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routines, feeding schedule, crate routine, medication instructions, and comfort preferences as closely as possible. My young son is part of our daily routine and may be present during bookings. He has been raised around animals and is always supervised, so I only accept pets who are comfortable around small children. For cat care, I provide attentive drop-in visits focused on feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, companionship, and updates while you’re away.
“Kendra was amazing. Very quick to respond which was so nice as my husband and I were traveling abroad. She followed our requests for meal times for our kitties, and sent lots of photos. We would definitely have kendra back! Highly recommend!”
About: Specializing in gentle, professional care to elderly and disabled dogs and cats. I started my professional career in animal care at the East Bay SPCA Veterinary Clinic in Oakland. Inspired by the importance of animal welfare, I would complete an eight-week internship at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, where I gained valuable skills in veterinary pre- and post-op care. Following that remarkable experience, I was a veterinary assistant for a holistic veterinarian at a private practice. Later, I returned to shelter medicine as a veterinary technician at the Berkeley-East Bay Humane Society. This span of 25 years allowed me to develop and strengthen my skills and expertise in animal care, specializing in the needs of senior dogs and cats. I am currently accepting new senior or disabled pets for slow strolls and other enrichment activities. My availability is flexible on Saturdays and Sundays, while weekdays are limited to only evening visits. Your pet's trust is important to me. I will arrive into your home with a warm and calm voice, assuring your beloved pets that I am gentle and kind. Being a former vet tech, I am also trained and skilled at giving medication*, which can be done in the comfort of your home. *All medications must be veterinarian-prescribed with dosage instructions. No exceptions.
About: Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I'm available from Monday to Friday between 10am - 3:30pm. In my home, I keep the space clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, with plenty of room for rest, play, and attention. In a client's home, I respect their space and maintain their pet's normal routine to help reduce stress while they're away. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Lolita helped us with drop-in visits to feed our 2 cats while we were away for a long weekend. She was very communicative, sent updates and photos - made us feel like they were in such good hands! Definitely recommend and would request her again!”
“Victoria is great and our Cafu was obviously well taken care of by Victoria…we are so happy the care given since we knew we would miss our lil baby. Victoria your the best…thank you so much 👍👍👍”
“Annashaye was wonderful! :) I really appreciated her willingness to schedule so last-minute, as well as come by early in the morning to meet my kitties before I had to leave. When I was traveling, she sent me the best little updates and photos, and even cleaned the litter box without asking her to! It was a huge relief knowing they were well taken care of while I was gone. I would definitely book with Annashaye again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
