About: Hi! I am a full time biology teacher who has her weeknights, weekends and summers off to hang with your fur babies 🐾 While I was getting my teaching degree, I worked part time at Petsmart in the pet care department where I gained valuable knowledge for the needs and wants of pets. I currently have a Bernese Mountain Dog and 3 Torti cats ages 8-11. I have always had dogs and cats growing up of all sizes so no fur baby is too small or too large for some cuddles! I have also had some not so common pets like hamsters, fish (fresh and saltwater), frogs, turtles and even an Eyelash Crested Gecko! Being a teacher I have learned how to be compassionate, caring and unbiased and I carry these traits into my pet services too! All fur babies deserve to be loved and cared for with the utmost respect and compassion. My fur babies mean the world to me so I will always make sure your fur babies are cared for how I would want my fur babies cared for when mom is not around. I hope you don’t mind me spamming you with cute pictures of your furry loved ones while I am hanging out with them. I believe you can never have too many pictures to capture all of the silliest moments with your “fur”ever family members 🐾 During the school year, Sept - Early June, I can work weeknights after 4 and weekends all day. For the summer months I can work Late June - August any time frame. 🗓️ I am cautious about making sure all doors are locked and fences are locked so no fur babies can make a jailbreak. I am well versed in using different types of harnesses and how to correctly apply them. I always make sure to bring a portable water dish just incase your fur baby needs a drink mid-walk and I make sure to thoroughly clean it between each use. I require to have an emergency contact person in case of an emergency and would like to know what vet/emergency vet you prefer. A meet and greet with you and your fur baby is always the best way to start a fun and safe relationship!
“Julia was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats while we were away. We really appreciated Julia’s warmth, professionalism, and communicativeness. The updates she sent throughout our trip were very reliable and reassuring. She was very easy to connect with and our cats seemed happy and healthy upon our return. We hope to book with Julia again!”
“Brijana was so great with my kitties! She was attentive and sweet with them. She cleaned the litter box and made sure I came back from my trip with happy kitties and a smell free house! I will definitely use her services again!”
“Erin took care of our cat while we were away for a week. We received daily updates and lots of pictures. Communication with Erin was excellent. Our cat was well taken care of. We will definitely ask Erin back in the future.”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of experience handling dogs of many breeds and sizes, with a specialty in small dogs. I understand that leaving your furry family member behind can be stressful, so my #1 priority is providing a safe, structured, and fun environment while you are away. I am trained in canine first aid, experienced with high-energy small breeds, and skilled at administering medications. I treat every dog as if they were my own, sticking to their regular feeding and walking schedules to keep them happy and reduce anxiety. I am extremely communicative and will send you detailed daily updates with plenty of photos so you can enjoy your time away worry-free. My daily routine is incredibly flexible and built around your pet's needs. Whether I'm staying overnight at your house or just doing daily drop-ins, I offer early morning, midday, and evening visits with ease. For extended stays, I simply bring my laptop and work remotely from your home. This means your pets get constant companionship, plenty of potty breaks, and your house stays occupied for as long as you need me there. I know what it's like to lose a pet, so safety will always be my number one priority. Trust and security go hand-in-hand with my remote work lifestyle. Since I'll be in your home for extended periods, I can actively keep an eye on both your property and your pets. I take my responsibility seriously: I'll bring in your mail and packages, water your plants, and clean up after your pets daily. I am meticulous about locking doors and windows behind me. I will closely monitor your pets for any subtle signs of stress, discomfort, or illness. I always aim to leave your home exactly as clean, if not cleaner, than I found it.
About: I've been caring for pets since I was 13; I've always had an instinctual desire to love and care for animals! I had 3 dogs of my own once and during my time with them I realized how important it is to give your dog the exercise and attention they need so that they can live a happy and healthy life! Sometimes life can get too busy to give your dog what they need, I can help by giving them walks and visits when you're unable to! I am currently juggling work, school, and life! Some days I'm off and will be able to pop in for a visit or walk! I'm more probable to be available the whole week in the evenings and night times! Just message and ask for my availability! I can care for your pet by walking them around the neighborhood! I can feed your pet and also play with them with their favorite toys!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Tavistock
We can't say enough about how happy we were with Brianna's care of our pets. We have 5 indoor cats and 2 ferals in our household. The twice daily (AM and PM) responsibilities included giving one of the cats 2 medications daily, multiple feeding instructions for wet and dry foods, and litter maintenance. Brianna provided thorough communication and photos on all visits. Notably, Brianna demonstrated keen observational skills and diligence by contacting us when it appeared someone had been to the house between her visits (it was a family member who had stopped by to pick up something). It became clear that Brianna is not just smart and dependable, she really loved our cats and took care of them as if they were her own. We would not hesitate to have Brianna take care of them in the future.
Megan took care of our cat family of 5 plus 2 outdoor feral cats. The responsibilities included giving one of the cats two medications daily, multiple instructions for feeding wet/dry food based on individual preferences, and litter box maintenance. Megan did a great job by providing pictures and updates on all the entire crew on a daily basis. Additionally, she genuinely appeared to enjoy their company and I am sure the feeling was mutual. We would definitely use Megan again for future needs.
Julia was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats while we were away. We really appreciated Julia’s warmth, professionalism, and communicativeness. The updates she sent throughout our trip were very reliable and reassuring. She was very easy to connect with and our cats seemed happy and healthy upon our return. We hope to book with Julia again!
Hunter is a conscientious, loving and professional person. She cared for my diabetic cat for two weeks and I received glowing reviews from him lol. I very much appreciate Hunter’s style as well. She was relaxed and confident around Mick. Hunter is and will be on Team Mick for future trips!!!!
Melissa was fabulous. She was reliable and friendly and conscientious. She was also very flexible when my flight was delayed and I needed to extend her visits she did so without hesitation. She spent time with my cats and sent great updates and photos throughout.
David did a great job in taking care of our two cats during our vacation! He was extremely communicative, and handled everything with care and precision. He also was able to provide oral and subcutaneous medicine to our one cat during his time without any problems. Thank you again David for everything!
Margot took very good care of firefly! She even took the time to play with him which we really appreciate! Firefly seemed to warm right up to her which speaks volumes to her natural love and attentiveness for cats! Also , she was very adaptable when we had a little key /lock mishap (my fault). thanks again ! Definitely will book again

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Tavistock is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 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.

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 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.
