“Chris was wonderful with Vittles! We had the chance to meet him beforehand and immediately found him to be a very kind and gentle person. Vittles clearly felt the same way and was very comfortable with him. Chris kept to Vittles’ schedule, communicated well, and sent us regular updates and pictures while we were away. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Vittles was in such caring hands. We definitely recommend Chris as a pet sitter and plan to have him care for Vittles again!”
About: My friends tell me I treat their pets like my own when I watch them! People have told me that they appreciate that I pay attention to details and send lots of updates. I have an elderly dog myself with special needs, have taken dog training classes and genuinely love animals! I am excited to learn about what care your dog needs and help them feel safe and cared for! I can do recurring drop ins once we have had our first sitting to make sure it’s a good fit! I have my calendar blocked off Tuesdays and Thursdays but feel free to reach out about one-offs! I work remotely, so I’d like to make myself available to help you out during the day with quick drop ins, short walks and potty breaks! My currently availability says the morning but I do have some availability in the afternoons at times. My dog is trained with positive reinforcement based methods. She is an older dog with medication requirements and I understand the extra care and play restrictions they can have! Whether it’s creating a quick interactive puzzle game or playing gently in the backyard, happy to help your dog get some attention during the day!
“I can't recommend Caitlin enough! Caitlin went above and beyond to make sure our pets felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. We received regular updates, including photos and little notes about their day. Josey and Molly weren't just being "looked after"-they were genuinely cared for and treated like family. When we returned home, everything was spotless, and our cats were relaxed and happy. I would highly recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for exceptional pet care”
“Elizabeth took great care of our cats while we were away. While they’re too shy for socializing, she ensured that their food, water, and litter boxes were maintained. We would recommend Elizabeth and schedule with her again!”
“Cera is amazing! She is kind, very responsive, and flexible. My mind was at ease knowing my cat was in the best hands while I was gone. She kept me updated with lots of adorable pictures and was happy to accommodate a couple other household tasks I asked her to do. I’m so glad to have found her and look forward to using her services in the future.”
“Katie was awesome. I loved her from the moment I met her (and she met my pups) and I knew without a doubt I was leaving them in great expert hands. She took excellent care of Tavish and Tessie and their particular needs while we were away for the weekend. I won't hesitate to use Katie again.”
“Alex is so great! I have an XL Dog who is timid and shy and can be a bit intimidating when she doesn’t know you. Alex was so so patient and slowly earned my dogs trust and love! Highly suggest hiring them!”
“Sydney took care of our snake while we were out of town. She went above and beyond by watering plants and bringing in packages too. Excellent communication, we will absolutely reach out to book her again.”
“Thank you- absolutely amazing!! I needed last minute care for Atlas and couldn’t have made a better choice. He was well taken care of and I loved the updates. I came home to a happy and cared for pup <3”
“Pamela is great! She is punctual and our kitty loves her! She communicates regularly. She even went the extra mile and replaced the batteries in our touch-activated faucet. Thanks Pamela!”
“James was a pleasure to work with! From a meet and greet before his first time sitting to check-ins with us at each visit, we loved having him taking care of our kitties. He was reliable, punctual, communicative, and we could tell he loved our babies as much as we do. Everything looked just as we left it when we returned and the cats hardly seemed to notice we were gone. Thank you, James!”
“Sherrie was terrific with my cat Maynard. She played with him every visit and sent me photos and updated me on how he was doing. I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Joanna is such a phenomenal sitter! She provides excellent care while I’m away, with great updates and attentive service. HIGHLY recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs.”
“Definitely will re-book with Thomas. He communicated well, sent pictures and a short message every drop in visit. My cats were well taken care of and I appreciate him very much! Thanks Thomas 😊”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve cared for my own for over 20 years, including through aging, illness, lots of meds and treatments. Able to care for any age or size and have experience with oral and subcutaneous meds for cats and oral meds for dogs. I’m currently working from home, so I’m available throughout the day and also anytime after 5pm - weekdays and weekends. So, available for drop-ins, pet sitting in my house or yours (as long as you have WiFi), walks, etc. Happy to care for your pet(s) in my home or yours. No fenced in yard at my place right now, but in a great walkable neighborhood. I’ll treat your fur babies like they were my own!
“Ariel went above and beyond while we were gone for a week. Betty and Rocco were very happy when we came back and the house and the yard looked great. Will definitely use her again soon.”

Kyle was fantastic! I had a good feeling as soon as I felt his firm handshake. He is very caring, attentive and a great communicator, clear and timely. Kyle was kind and understanding about my anxiety leaving my cat, and he made sure to be in touch and send lots of photos and updates. A truly wonderful pet-sitter!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Swannanoa. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
