About: I have always had a special connection with animals. From squirrels and rabbits, to raccoons and huge bucks. Ever since I was little I have loved animals and have a special connection with them. I love them all! I have worked with S.P.O.T and local Pet Stores to help rescue and foster animals. My fur babies are as spoiled and well taken care of as much as my human babies- and will yours! I am a Mental Health Professional. I run my Private Practice from my home office and make my own appointments. I see clients via telehealth which allows great flexibility in days and times I schedule my clients. I can be available any day any time you are needing someone to love your fur baby. I will come to your home so your fur babies are cared for and loved in their own home. I will respect and care for Your fur babies the way you prefer.
About: I was a dog walker in my neighborhood. I walked younger dogs/puppies that grew to be very large! I also use to walk a dog that didn’t like other dogs company so I made sure the go a specific route to avoid them! I am free as a bird on weeks and weekends! I’m more than willing to help with any schedule! I’m also very flexible so if anything changes just reach out! I always make sure that every pet is comfortable and well taken care of! I always make sure their beds, blankets, or the couch is comfortable and ready for them to lounge! I also ensure that their food and water bowls are clean! I clean my pets food and water bowls everyday so I ensure I do the same for others!
About: I've had pets or lived in homes with pets for most of my life, starting when I was a teenager, so caring for and sharing space with animals has always been a natural part of my everyday life. Over the years, I've become comfortable with the different personalities, routines, and needs that come with sharing a home with animals. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their individual habits and temperament rather than treating every animal the same. I'm attentive to the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure—keeping to their normal routines, giving them plenty of affection and attention, and making sure they have the care and companionship they need while their people are away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are doing well. Above all, I treat caring for someone's pet as a responsibility I take seriously. My goal is for your and your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I have a fairly flexible schedule, so I can be available when your pets need me. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, and for house sitting I'm able to spend much of the day at your home with your pets rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company and a little playtime, or your pets simply need someone around while you're away, I'm happy to work their normal routines into my day. I'll take the time to understand what each pet is used to and make sure they get the care, exercise, attention, and companionship they need. Whether I'm caring for your pets in your home or taking them out for a walk, safety comes first. I take the time to understand each pet's personality, routine, and boundaries, and I'll follow your instructions carefully. When house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want from someone staying in mine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, keep things clean and tidy and in their place, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual or out of the ordinary. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the booking, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pets are happy and doing well. If I notice anything concerning, I'll let you know promptly rather than assuming it's nothing. My goal is for you to feel comfortable knowing that your pets—and your home—are in good hands while you're away.
“I highly recommend Kaetlyn for your pet sitting needs. She was respectful and patient with my dog who can have stranger danger. She was prompt with her visits and I felt that she really cared for my dog. I plan on hiring her again in the future! Thanks, Kaetlyn!”
About: I’ve always dabbled in pet sitting for the fun of traveling and meeting new breeds. Now that I’m semi - retired, I've discovered a new joy in providing care without the pressure of outside responsibilities. Having nowhere else to be means I can spend hours with your pets, letting them set the pace on our walks, and offering endless cuddles, allowing me to form trusted connections with every animal I watch. It is not that pet care fits into my life as much as pet care IS my life. It is breakfast, walk or read (depending on the species), groom, pet, games, naps, then dinner and repeat until bedtime. In follow the outline provided by the pet parent to work through the pet’s familiar daily routine. For dogs, I emphasize exercise and with cats, I emphasize stillness. For both, we find a compromise 😂

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.
