About: I have had dogs all my life and currently have 2 dogs. My dogs are my babies and I will treat yours just like my own. I have crate trained young dogs to caring for senior pups as well. I am reliable and trust worthy. I work remotely and can stop in or walk morning and afternoon during the week and anytime on Saturday or Sunday as needed for your pet. I have dogs of my own and need to come to your home to take care of your pets. My older dog is hit or miss getting along with other dogs so I will not be able to have your pets at my house.

“Sabrina is fantastic! She is professional and responsive and my fur babies (2 cats) absolutely loved her! I highly recommend! One of my cats has a medical condition so of course I was worried about leaving him with anyone, but he was so well taken care of by Sabrina. Couldn't have asked for anyone better.”

About: Hi! I have been working with pets for 15 years now. I started in doggy daycare and have since worked as a vet tech and professional dog groomer. Comfortable with any medication administration. I’m happy to hang with your pet on the couch or walk/run your dog on request. My work schedule is flexible and I would be happy to work with you based on your pets’ needs! Reach out, I’d love to work with you! I will treat your home as if it is my own! No request is too silly. I understand spicy cats and behavioral dogs can be nervous with someone coming into their home. I will do my best to make everyone comfortable.

I’m organized, punctual, and mindful of each pet’s schedule, whether that’s feeding times, walks, or medication. I take this responsibility seriously and make sure every pet receives dependable, quality care. Your pet’s safety and emotional comfort are my top priorities.

About: Taken care of many cats and dogs! I have worked in pet boarding resorts! As long as your friendly pooch and I get along well, I will gladly care for your dog as schedule allows! I am a swim teacher, but on my free days and in my other free time can walk dogs and do drop in visits for any non aggressive dog, cat or caged pets. Aggressive pets will be taken on case by case basis if I’ll be able to safely handle. I currently live in a condo with my own dog, but during drop in visits and walks I’ll be paying attention to dog or cat interests and health needs. I’m willing to cater to the individual needs of the pet and treat them like my own. Also willing to care for non cat/dog pets within home as well.

About: I've owned a variety of dogs of every breed and size, (Gr8Danes, pekingese, doodles, terriers, the list goes on) all from a very young age. I've had puppies, to special needs seniors... All of whom have different skills sets required for their care. Im currently a stay at home Mom. One of my children is a 2 time cancer survivor and requires a flexible schedule due to her weakened immunity. My schedule is pretty packed as a busy mom before and after school... but my availability during the day and on weekends is usually fairly open for visits, walks, cuddles or any type of care. I'm more than able to follow any schedules you may want to follow. Including eating/medication times as I know and respect how sensitive some animals are.

“This was the first time I used Sky to house and cat sit for me and I am very pleased. First of all, she came to my house to meet us and to discuss my cat's daily routine. She was very professional and attentive, and also gentle when approaching my cat. While I was away, Sky sent me a photo of my cat every day, along with a description of what they did that day, both of which I really appreciated. When I came home, I found everything very clean and in good order, including the litterbox and all of her dishes washed and ready for use. My bed was also freshly made, another very kind thing to do for me! I highly recommend using Sky as a pet sitter and a house sitter, you will be happy you did!”

About: Hello pet parents! I bring 15 years of deep pet care experience to Rover, rooted in a lifetime of loving animals. I actually grew up on a farm caring for a wide variety of different animals from a young age. This foundational upbringing instilled in me an instinctual understanding of animal behavior and welfare. As an adult dog owner, I experienced the rewards of adopting and completely training an Australian Shepherd and a Border Collie. Raising two incredibly intelligent, high-energy working breeds taught me the absolute necessity of patience, positive reinforcement, and clear structural routines. Today, my Aussie manages hypothyroidism, which means I am deeply familiar with specialized medical care. I am fully accustomed to administering daily medications exactly on schedule and maintaining a carefully balanced exercise routine to keep her healthy and thriving. I am currently an Orthodontic Intern at LECOM School of Dental Medicine. My hours are 8:15AM-11:45AM and 12:45PM-3:45PM. I am available to stop in around the morning, lunch, and afternoon hours. During house sitting or drop-in visits, I seamlessly maintain your pet’s familiar routine while providing engagement and love. I excel at balancing active play, including backyard games and safe, fun trips to local dog parks, with calm, reassuring comfort to ease separation anxiety. I respect your home’s security and rules, maintain total cleanliness, and send photo updates to keep you completely worry free.

About: I have experience caring for pets and understand the importance of providing them with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I am comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning up after pets, administering basic care as instructed, and giving them attention and companionship. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet's individual needs and routine. I treat every pet with kindness and care, as if they were my own, and I am committed to ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work full-time, but I have availability after work on weekdays and plenty of time on weekends to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy time outdoors. My son and I love visiting local parks and walking the trails several times a week, giving active dogs plenty of exercise and fresh air. I also provide attentive care for other pets, making sure they have fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention while respecting their individual routines and needs. I care for every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

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 .

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.
